Hello everyone. It's the ending day of the year - December 31, and tomorrow would be the Year of the Ox, which is my year. Lol. XD. Here, I read about my year in Fluffy Bits.

1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997
People born in the Year of the Ox are patient, speak little, and inspire confidence in others. They tend, however, to be eccentric, and bigoted, and they anger easily. They have fierce tempers and although they speak little, when they do they are quite eloquent. Ox people are mentally and physically alert.

Oh yes. Some are true. Lol. XD. I hope that 2009 will be "more awesome" than this year. You know.

Here are my resolutions for the upcoming 2009:

1. To be better on my studies and to be a better student than before.
2. Iwasan ang sobrang pagdadaldal. I've been a naughty, bad and noisy girl this year so I think I should lessen that. Ü
3. To help myself to work out. You know. To be a healthie human.
4. To stay my cool to others. Magagalitin kasi ako ng 2008, kaya babawasan! Ahaha.
5. To increase my creativity in making layouts. I am now making Friendster Default and Navigational CSS Layouts, Blogger Layouts and Web Layouts. I am now studying how to make Multiply Themes or Layouts. I just learned in this age of 11. I think I can improve, so that would be another resolution.
6. Be a better Netizen. I must protect myself from very abusive people here, since I'm getting older.

Here are my wishes for this year:

1. To have a brand new phone, laptop, digital camera and iPod. What a girl wants, right?
2. To gain more awards than 2008. I have gained many awards already, and I wish I'll have more. It's my year, right? So please! Ahahaha.
3. To be a one happy family here in the house
4. To gain more friends.
5. Others that are personal.

Achievements? Go to my Multiply Page for more information.

Oh, by the way. I got a request through mail about making layouts, with a payment. I don't know what to do. He or she asks for 100 layouts monthly, 1$-2$ each. Can you help me to decide? Thanks! Happy New Year to you!

Season's Greetings! Happy Holidays! Merry Christmas! Okay, we all know that it is December 25 today. Okay, I don't know where to start. I have many to say? Lol. XD. Actually, If I will compare the Christmas last year and today, I would love the last yea better. I can't feel Christmas today... not at all, but on some times. Maybe because this Christmas is not usual as before. It is the first ever Christmas without my dad on the house, which is on abroad. I hope that he is enjoying his Christmas today. By the way, instead of gifts, I only received money from my grandmother and my mother. Since our reunion is on January 1, maybe my other relatives would give me gifts or money. On this day, I got P500, wee, so happy! You know, my mother stopped giving allowance to me. Now, I have money! Maybe, If I got all my gifts or money, I will watch movies and go shopping. I seldom do that, but maybe it's my time to enjoy? Lol. XD.

Tomorow, is my mom's birthday. She has no plans yet, but I hope she will buy a cake again! Ahaha, food craver for today. I hope mom will enjoy today, and tomorrow, and I also hope that dad will call again. I miss his voice! Lol. XD.

By the way, to my online blog friends, you can gather your gift to me anytime until Dec. 31. Lol. XD. I can also accept gifts today o be-lated gifts until Dec. 31.

Again, Merry Christmas to you!

I was just looking at my past entries, and then I realized that I am missing my school, SBSN. Here are some questions that came up to my mind.

1. Your school is not a big one. Why do you still enjoy?
It's not about the size of the school, it's about enjoyment.

2. You are suffering on your studies today. Do you still enjoy?
As long as the teacher's not angry, I can still enjoy. I can survive! Lol. XD.

3. If you passed in Philippine Science High School, will you transfer?
I'm still thinking in that matter. I can't decide. I know that my future will be a great one in PSHS, but what if my heart still belongs to SBSN? I'm studying here for almost 7 years. Will you forget the school that made you for almost 7 years? Lol. XD. So, no answer for this one first.

4. Will you still consider yourself as a Benedictine even though you chose to be a PSHS student (maybe)?
Of course. My heart will always be a Benedictine. =)

Well, the Christmas Party post must be yesterday, but I haven't opened the computer, so here it is.

Christmas Party
Okay, so I and my friend and an awardee, Alfrey became emcees here. At first, our adviser became angry because our classmates are really uncontrollable. But at the end, it became so cool and enjoying.

Here are some pics (credits to my classmates Patricia and Claudine) (pics are really many, so I only posted some).














Christmas Program
Well, this is ou last day of the year, 2008, so I just enjoyed performing on-stage. Also, nice watching teachers. Intermediate Department rocks a lot! Ahaha, they are really great performers. Lol.
Here is a pic:




You, what's up in your program and party?

FriendsterKo.com is a site that offers layouts, particularly Friendster layouts. I'm a layout author there.

Well, I can't open my account there, because I'm really, really busy, especially now. But I opened it a while ago, and I was shocked on what I saw.

I saw my layouts with a lot of comments, and really, really great feedbacks, like "lufet!", or "nice layout". It really made me flatter, and made me forget all the bad memories for today (oh well, I don't want to share bad memories here).

I only shared this to you.

If you want to view my profile there (and my layouts), click here. Feel free to use them.
