Merry Christmas!



I spent the holiday up in the mountain of my glorious island. Tagaytay was foggy and a fresh, green, clean place to celebrate with family.

With me were my parents, my sister, my aunt, her husband and two young kids.

Of course, we invited the whole of our house staff for BINGO and a raffle, to hype the fun of it all.

So MERRY CHRISTMAS/HAPPY HOLIDAYS (because this season knows no religion) to you all!

NOVEMBER 2 IS CHABELI FERNANDEZ DAY!








I'm kidding. But some of my friends decided to start a little status message chain "declaring their love for me". I consider it an assassination attempt and I shall retaliate when I get back to school on Thursday.

Well, here are a few examples of my "ADMIRERS".

Honesty session

So I haven't been blogging. Just to update you on my life--well, it hasn't been interesting as of late, but my October is quite full...full of BOYS, that is.

So just to inform you, I'm in an all-girls' school. In order to...EXPAND our social circles, we are ENCOURAGED to plan interactions and soirees with all-boys' schools. Lucky me for being put on the documentary committee for BOTH events (whoopee).

This Saturday, I was (forced) to attend a committee meeting with the boys' school. It lasted from 8-12 ON A SATURDAY. Also, my clubhead (for debate) HAPPENED to be in school that day. She called my name from FAR FAR AWAY and EVERYONE (including the boys) TURNED TO LOOK AT HER!

Today, she apologized, laughed, and pinched my cheek.

TO CONTINUE, I went to my aunt's house for lunch. I got dressed there and little did I know, I PACKED THE WRONG SHIRT. So I went to a soiree with a DIFFERENT all-boys' school (there are a lot in our part of the world) with a sleeveless blouse.

I got to see old friends though, and AN OLD RELATIONSHIP MAY HAVE BEEN REKINDLED! :O

Also, have any of you heard of the word JEJE? Well, my cousin (hesuchristi I cannot believe we're related) and my good friend Gab have found JEJEBROS in each other.

It's disgusting.

TROLOLOLOLOL~~~NEW TOPIC!

The day after, my dad picked us up early. We drove ALL THE WAY TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE CITY to an orphanage, where we heard mass (yes....I am Catholic...) and distributed juice and books to the orphans.

So basically, my weekend has been very full.

So are my next 3 weekends which I will be spending in school.

Interacting.

With Boys.

My face, haunting your dreams.

A beautiful day in Metro Manila, my grandmother has just turned - BLEEEEEEEP - years old, I bonded with my cousins today, and I have tests tomorrow.

Last week was absolutely horrible though. Lots ofstress, plus my China trip got cancelled. :(

Anywho, TESTS, PROJECTS, FAMILY RELATIONS.

TTFN!

Like a Vegas Casino Sign.

Hello, fellow bloggers.

As you can see (well, really, no), I am quite well and back to school. School, on the other hand, has not been treating me so well. I've been pounded with a lot of research, physical activity, astigmatism, RESEARCH FOR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, schedule problems, PMS, evil teachers, tests....the usual, melancholic high school stuff.

You'd be glad to know, though, I've gotten in my debate club and advanced grammar. Extra work for me, but hey, I get good grades, I speak hella well and I get into a good college. ;)

My current challenge today is: CREATING A 3 MINUTE TOURISM VIDEO OF SOUTH EAST ASIA, DUE TOMORROW.

So, bye for now, Blogger! I shall continue with homework, then maybe remember to write a little more. ;)

Choking on adrenaline.

So I've been permitted by my mother (of course, after begging and begging and the rest I promised her) to attend classes today. It went well during the first few periods. It went especially well right after reccess, when it was announced that I got a 16/15 in my Bio quiz (and of course, my teacher didn't have my paper with him)! Happy Chabs!

But then, the 9 pages of math homework hover over me. I would've listened attentively to the review lesson of our (extremely pregnant--I fear water breaking) Math teacher, but nature called. The natural need to breathe and the stupid hereditary medical health problem called Asthma (AKA Pendulum of Death) needed to be attended to, so I ran down, red-faced to the clinic. It took forever for the nurse to get off the phone with some random parent so she could properly analyze my situation. Then I went to the physician and she told me to nebulize, so I did. Then I had to "rest", so I missed the rest of math.

I ate lunch alone, not willing to walk down to the cafeteria with my friends because 3 flights of stairs is torture for my upper respiratory system.

Filipino time! As head of Tech and Props (yes, BOTH), I got to lay back and cut up some shadow puppets while the rest of the class fancily danced in unison.

AND THEN THERE WAS THE (dreaded, outdoor) ASSEMBLY. The high school gathers in one court, in the heat of the supposed rainy season. The heat + the density of people + 3 flights of stairs = red, sweaty, coughing, DYING Chabs. ):

So I was late to tryouts, but the awesome, ever so lenient club head said it was okay, since it was an Asthma attack. Try outs then proceeded like this:

- waiting outside in the corridor for your turn
- walking into the room and seeing past seniors there to debate with you
- being asked for the movie that describes you and why
- being asked random questions about the G8, the former Chief Justice of the Philippines, The president of South Africa, the Gulf of Mexico and NATO
- Oral defense against past seniors and/or current seniors
- I GOT TO DEBATE ABOUT DISNEY PRINCESSES AS A STEP UP FOR FEMINISM AND THEIR EFFECT ON REALITY (and Patrick Dempsey. AHIHIHI)
- I didn't get to public speak, but damn, Juniors and Seniors rock my world! \mmm/ "Connect 2 Glee songs chosen at random. Entertain us."

YAAAAAAY!!!!
I'm absolutely tired. (:|

PS: GERMANY LOST. :(((((((

Sunlessness.




So it's been storming. It's been quite dark (not dark enough, as you can see), so I took advantage of it, stole my sister's flashlight (hehehe) and did this. Of course, it's wrong, since it's not completely black. But anyways, I think I've expressed myself enough.

Damn, I miss school. ):

It sucks to be sick.

Like, it sucks like hell.

I've been absent for two days (there actually is class right now...I'm just not there) and the homework I receive is EXTREME torture. 9 pages of math homework and memorize the books of the New Testament. I can handle the New Testament just fine, but 9 pages of math homework is a little too much. And I probably won't even know what I'm doing. Math really isn't the kind of subject you can make bola (or "wing it", in English) in.

Another reason for sickness cells to go DIE IN A HELL HOLE is the number of medicines I must take. I have 3 prescription medicines, plus one just in case I stop breathing.

Yeah, you guessed it: I'm asthmatic. And having asthma is literal hell when you get into coughing fits, which is the only flu symptom I have.

And just my luck, I have a forensics try-out tomorrow. How the hell am I supposed to debate while coughing?

"Yes, the - cough cough - Twi -cough - light series is quite - cough - famous, but its - cough - fanbases consist only of - cough cough - rabid teen - cough - age girls whereas - cough - Harry Pot - cough - ter's fans range from - cough - children to - WHEEEEEEZ - full grown adults of both -cough - genders."

[ya see what I didn right there?]

Hello.


Chabeli here. I'm - bleep - years old, in my - bleep - year of high school.

I'm Filipina with a side of Spanish.

I play(ed) soccer and badminton.

I have cameras, and I whore them all to myself.

I write. I like talking too.

I like the color orange.

I like History and hate Math.

I'm thin as hell and it's really weird how I eat a lot of chocolate.

I'm a proud otaku.

I have no current love interests except the World Cup and Formula 1.

I declare myself a geek that parties a little less than most.

I also spend too much time on my laptop.

This blog was created for a bunch of reasons, yet no reason at all. This is a place for my rants about...everything, really.

No, my life doesn't suck. In fact, I have a very awesome, monotonous one. Amazing, right?

So, yes. Sooner or later, you'll find out dirty little details about me, but for now, this ends my first introductory blog.
