looking back

i was busy skimming thru old cd's when i saw this photo, taken almost two years ago. my org, gmg (green media group), is the official events and media production org of dlsu, and... this photo sure brings back a lot of memories. *sniff*

i like rhymes

yet another blog! yay!

seriously, i don't know how to categorize this one just yet. :)

from pencil to keyboard, paper to monitor

originally scribbled 3/10, 5-ish in the afternoon

suddenly, i find myself wanting to tidy up and fix things. in fact, i have--as soon as i woke up this afternoon i folded my clean clothes, washed the dishes, did a bit more laundry, and before i wrote this sentence tidied up some bits and pieces in my room. keep in mind that i am rarely ever like this--much much less on a workday. (i even took out the trash! oh golly goshness)

maybe it's a subconscious way of wanting to tidy up my life. i can't stand white space--i like mess and clutter. i've always been a firm believer of order existing in chaos.

then again, things are more simple if they're following a specific order. having things at the right place. notebooks and pens go to this shelf, not the underwear drawer. socks shouldn't be where the jeans are folded. that sort of thing.

i'm hoping this order funk stays with me long. it keeps my mind clutter-free, and gives me more focus.

i've read an interesing blog entry about the difference of men and women. i think its title is "if men have compartments, women have tote bags," and you can find it here. the author noted how we women manage to carry just everything in our totes.

i found myself laughing while reading that entry. she was so right! i really really really am a girl, i've realized.

here's what's in my bag--and take note that i bring all of these things with me everywhere:

• 
  
  a book (in case i end up bored and alone)
  
  
• 
  
  ipod
  
  
• 
  
  coin purse
  
  
• 
  
  wallet
  
  
• 
  
  keys
  
  
• 
  
  a small bottle of lotion
  
  
• 
  
  mint Chapstick (any other flavor won't do)
  
  
• 
  
  two combs
  
  
• 
  
  hair rubbers (during those emergency pa-cute moments)
  
  
• 
  
  mobile phone
  
  
• 
  
  lubricating eye drops (when my contacts rebel on me)
  
  
• 
  
  leave-on conditioner
  
  
• 
  
  my phony eyeglasses (they've got no grado, see)
  
  
• 
  
  my pink pencil pouch, which contains my entire pen collection
  
  
• 
  
  when space permits, my pink journal

and that's being tidy. on laxy days it can have receipts, post-its, tiny notepads, and spare change scattered inside!

oh, and note how i never mentioned the words "kikay kit" in the mix. the kikayest thing that i carry is the conditioner--everything else is necessity. it's already fussy enough as it is :P

thank God he made me a girl--a very geeky one at that :P

alternativity

i have a more serious side that you guys don't know about.

bzzt bzzt!
