Dear Diary 11.23.10

midnight solemnity.

clear head.clear mind.clear point.Ha! :D

Yes. I definitely want a clear mind. Cleaning my web diary sort of makes it seem like cleaning my mind. Lots of things are going on in my head and it's overwhelming, hence the need to clear my head and the need to bug some people. Please don't get peeved. I just really want to talk to you, guys, apart from my Mom, of course. It's 10:40pm here and freezing cold. I wonder why. It's supposed to be summer.

I wanted to drink hot chocolate but the kettle's noisy (I didn't want to wake up anybody), so I settled for a cold cocoa which is not a good idea while in my Ateneo jacket over a sleeveless top and maong shorts. I want my jammies, but I haven't done my laundry, yet. I had 12 hours of sleep today. I slept off half the day because it's cold and it felt good to sleep. Surprisingly, I haven't slept for less than 7 hours since I came here. I am sleep nourished, but I know there'll be payback when the time comes.

Aside from the sleep, I am also free of my allergic rhinitis attacks. Back home, it's like, I had it everyday. This is the upside of a pollution free environment. I also got to eat medium rare lamb roast and I didn't like it. Weird taste and I imagined the lamb with fleece and all.

I finished Perfect Shot by Debbie Rigaud last night (One of the random romantic comedy I picked up during my last visit to the library). It is about London, a volleyball player who had a crush on a guy she just met. In order to have a conversation with him, she signed up for the modeling competition she never thought she'll end up getting selected in, but then, she was. The guy was the photography intern in the fashion event. Everything else took off from there. Surprisingly, Philippines was mentioned in this book. Her best friend's boyfriend was from the Philippines. It's cute,meaning no adultish content or serious discussions, and it's a light read. It does make you think how far you can go to get someone's attention, though. Hmmm...what have I done to get someone's attention? Let me count the ways...Please click here -> to find out..Nah.

I can't wait to get my hands on the Uglies Series #s2, 3 and 4. Maybe, I'll write a review on The Westing Game, Uglies and Gone, soon. My next read is Miss Match by Wendy Toliver, another romance novel. So this is how it feels like to not be busy in a new place. Haha. I miss being busy, now. I hope I'll be busy soon.

'Till next stop.
