The List is already OUT

Okay. Another late update from me. Well, I will introduce you to my very first blog entry that will talk about my frustrations.

By the way, I'm studying in Ateneo and I'm so damn frustrated because, I was not able to get a place in one of the most important papers in the bulletin board:

"DEAN'S LIST".

My ghad. All my grades are above 90 starting from my 2 Major Subjects, for Public Speaking and Debate, Political Science, Religious Studies and Judo. And got a line of 8 for Rizal's life and works. But damn, i got a little bit dissapointed to one very particular subject. Programming is... is... i dont know. iI'm not good at it but i'm really trying my best to be good at it. Well, i do study but whenever the exams are out, it seems that my thoughts are not coming out from my mind.

because of my grade, i know that i will not qualify for Cum Laude anymore which I believe, will make me cry. But anyway, the fight is just starting and i just have to stand up again, right? :D

may we all have a good day :D

remember, shhhhh. :)

features 101

Hello guys and gals! :D it's Skeeper again. Another late update from me. You see, i was kinda busy this morning. I have to finish many things including the projects we are suppose to submit this afternoon. anyway, the project is already done and i still have problems though. My groupmates did not buy blank DVDs yet and i'm kinda discouraged since i am already sleeping late for days and yet now, when I need their help, they are just waiting for each other to do it. i dont know what to do and i still dont know how to deal with those kind of people. Well anyway, as my last resort, in order for me to become calm again, i am now browsing some deviations [arts from deviantArt] and just getting the things that caught my attention.

by the way, I'm a graphics designer and web developer. Still a student though but I'm working on my productivity every moment.

and ladies and gentlemen, here are the things that caught my attention in DevArt:

1. Chocolate box by *meago

the very thing that strucked me with this art is that, the cuteness. :D i know that you will all agree with me. well, it is somehow helping me remember the childhood memories that i have. te art reminds me of sarah:ang munting prinsesa, Prince Cedie, Judy, and many cartoons that i usually watch when i am still a kid.  

2. Hope by ~MichellePhan

i guess this is a painting. the colors are brilliant plus i can really see the emotion of the subject. It reminds me of my fairy tales. Just so you know again, i still believe in fairytales. you know, princes and princesses, happily ever after, withces, knights,, dragons, dungeons and many more. it reminds me of my beloved one to be exact.

3.Hope and Despair by *yuumei 

I love the concept of this picture. Hope on the other side and despair on the opposite side. well, all i can say is "WOW!"

Till here guys! hope that you loved my post :D




remember, SHHHHHHH. :)

How to keep a secret?

Hello guys! I just want to share this article i found on the internet.

Since my blog is about my secrets, I am just in the mood of sharing this so that you will be guided also in the real life situations of keeping a secret.

here it is:

Keeping a secret can be difficult, and when it is a juicy secret it might be near impossible. It takes a great deal of willpower and determination, not to want to tell someone what you just heard. If you feel that you do not have the willpower necessary, then do not put yourself in the position of even hearing a secret.

Steps

1. Keep your motivator in mind. There are lots of reasons to keep something a secret. Maybe it would be embarrassing, for you or someone else. Maybe you'll ruin a surprise. Maybe you promised to someone that you wouldn't. Just keep this in mind when you're tempted to let the cat out of the bag. People look up to and trust you when you keep secrets, since it's a very difficult thing to do.
2. Ask how long you need to keep this secret. Is it something simple, like a present or a surprise party, or something you intend to take to the grave? This will give you more of a perspective of the secret you are keeping as well as help you analyze the lengths you are willing to go to to keep it.
3. Force yourself to just not tell! You have to keep this secret because no one else is supposed to know about it. The most effective way of keeping something from spreading around is to keep it to yourself. People can't betray a secret they don't know.
4. Never drop any hints that you have a secret. Stay away from saying "I know something you don't know" in a singsong voice. A lot of people tend to go after forbidden fruit. They may attempt to pry the secret out of you, and it's very likely that you can cave in.
5. Understand that if someone becomes aware of your secrets existence, stay away from "20 Questions." You still technically told if a person decodes a secret from a series of yes and nos. Answer any questions that people ask calmly, revealing as little as you possibly can.
6. Never bring up the topic of or involving the secret if you can help it. If you have no choice but to discuss something involving it, graze the surface in conversation so as not to look evasive or suspicious. Then gracefully change the subject. Keep your head high and confident like you don't know anything.
7. Remain defensive. Just calmly refuse to tell the secret. Some people will respect this, but others may bug you further. Stand your ground if this is the case. Don't let anything slip and don't back down.
8. Lie, if necessary, but keep it as a last resort. Lies can complicate things and cause a lot of trouble in the future. However, it can be very effective, especially if you would go through any lengths to keep this secret under wraps. Or, tell everyone you know, but pretend you are kidding.
9. Tell a stuffed animal the secret. It's not exactly telling!
10. Say the secret over and over again to yourself. This might do the trick!
11. Change the topic when the topic is what the secret is about.
12. Pretend you don't know any secrets.
13. If the person is unreliable, try not to go near them without obviously avoiding them.
14. If it is an embarrassing topic, in your mind's eye play it over and over again and "edit, cut and clip" until it's not embarrassing anymore. This helped me.
15. Ask the person if there is someone you are allowed to tell. If it's your secret, you can tell your best friend.

This isn't a secret. Spread the word if you want :) Learn to value secrets.

no 'shhhhh' for this time XD

absent for the first time

Hello guys! :D Skeeper's here again to tell you some secrets I have for this day :)

For the first time, the
thought
intensity of being absent raised so high that i finally decided to be absent for the very first time in my entire college life. Subject? Physical Education-JUDO! \m/

I'm so tired that I cannot think of lifting my partner while throwing him. I mean, Judo's becoming so tiring. But don't get me wrong. I'm still enjoying it but I just

don't have the strength for today for play. I hope you understand me guys. hahah.

Why is Judo fun?

Well, first, lifting and throwing are the most fun part of the class. During the Randori [i think that is the name], you can really feel the intense pressure of your playmate. [well accordingly, playmate is more appropriate than opponent since we are all classmates and we are learning while having fun and not to destroy our classmates to death with those possible back haches and stuffs like that.]

And another thing is, Judo is the only time where I am able to have an exercise. Well just so you know, sports is a no no on my part. Even if i want to have an exercise, I still can't do it because if ever I'm able to have an exercies, i still eat and eat. [just get my point anyway]

Judo isn't just an ordinary sport. It is the most *insert a good adjective here* among the martial arts family. Players are expected to enjoy the game while finding out the most powerful player. And that what makes it great.

Again, I was just absent because i am just so tired and i just need a rest :)

remember, shhhhhh.

It's so good to be back

Have you ever asked yourself if what it feels like to be in the golden times? Like listening to the fresh MJ songs, dancing to the beat of Rock'n'Roll with Elvis Presly's songs, singing country and love songs by the Carpenters and even finding to boogie the night away with the beatles.

That is what exactly happened to me today. While tuning the radio to my usual and favorite radio station, i fount out that they are actually reliving the golden times the generations we have now. I then asked myself again. Why are still they doing that? I mean we all love to hear Secondhand Serenade, Plain White T's, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and maybe to hear MCR songs once in a while, red hot chili peppers and linkin park.

Then i came to one simple realization:

Time really crawls.

I also would like you to feel that it's really good to be back. even if i myself was not able to hear the original songs during their original eras, i was at least able to be in the shoes of my love ones like my mother and father who really love those kind of songs. It's really good to feel their feelings during their time. If only i can just invent the time machine, i would really love to go the golden times and be amazed on how they turn the fresh songs into classical songs.

but then, questions came into my mind.

Will:

• Britney's 'Toxic'
• Christina's 'Fighter'
• MCR's 'Helena'
• Linkin Park's 'Paper Cut'
• 2ne1's 'I Don't Care'
• Second Hand Serenade's 'Your Call'
  
• and other songs we have now, be played 25-30 years from now during the radio station's backtrax program?

Let's just see and hear :D

A Little Reflection

it's been a while since i updated my journal so here i am now. updating again.

i have many things to tell you guys. first is about this picture. this is a deviation made by

the picture is here anyway:

the very moment after i saw that picture, it made me think about what happened yesterday. yesterday was one of the best times of my life. and i'm thankful for it. just what the hell or shiould i say, what the 'heaven' happened yesterday?

in our university, we have a project, specifically in our multimedia class. we have to produce an audio visual presentation. first, we decided to make something about tourism. but then, we changed the plans and proceeded to make an AVP presentation regarding the big dreams of the poor kids. so what we did was, we went to the city dump site where mountainous garbage and trashes were being thrown.

the place was really big and i think the place can already house 100 families or even more. but, waht elese can they do? the garbage took their place and what they did was to build their homes beside the garbage dump site, just few meters away from all those stinky garbage.

we conducted an interview to the kids there.

first, we interviwed the little girl (7 years i suppose) and she said that she wanted to be a doctor so that he can help her mother and father and to help all the sick people. then i asked her if she believes that she can be a doctor someday. with some moments of silence, she didn't respond to my question and i feel that she wanted to cry. then she finally spoke and said no. why? because she knows that her family cannot handle to support her for her education.

next, we interviwed a boy. (i suppose he's 8 years already). throuout the interview, he remained silent. then when he finally spoke up, he said that he has no dreams. then i found out that he's just living with his grandmother, with no father and mother at his side..

next, we interviewed a group of young boys. one told us that he wanted to be a boxer, the other a judo player, and one told us that he wanted to be a policeman and the other one, a soldier. then i also asked them, do you think that all of you can have your dreams? all of them, said no. they also said that poverty is their hindarnce in pursuing for theior dreams. they barely have money to suffice their everyday needs. 3 out of the 4 boys are no longer studying. i also asked one of them if he believes that someone will help them in maiking their dreams. then he said with a resounding yes. and that made me feel happy.

then, after the interview, the 10 year old boy, with no mother and father, led as to the dump site proper. ther we saw many peoople segregating garbage. i also found out that for every 1 kilo of plastics they can produce, they can have 9 pesos (18 cents i guess). for every day of working there, they can produce a total of 50 pesos or $1.01.

-----------------

i then asked myself, can i possibly help them?

well this is my message to you all:

first i wanted to thank you for reading up to this far.

i know that we still have many obligations to do. our families, friends, school works, office jobs and many more. i understand if we ourselves cannot help them now. but remember, if we cannot help them now, let us accept their offers of helping us now. those poor people can serve as an inspiration to us of working hard and persevering through life. i know that even at the loneliest moment of their lives, they are doing their very est to feed their hungry stomach, and to suffice theire family's needs. with that, i knwo that it will inspire us to do more. then when the right time comes, it's time to give our helping hands to them. and maybe, or i must say, i believe that we can do great things for them and for everyone as long as we are willing and we have faith in our God and in our selves.

remember, shhhhhh.
