So I attended mass with my mum earlier (read: 5:00 a.m.) over at Pink Sisters. Then we went to Starbucks for breakfast. I'm still drinking my coffee. It's a venti Iced Caramel Macchiato. It's good. Mhmm.
I haven't slept… oh wait. I spent the whole day yesterday sleeping. But now, my head hurts. Pfft.
Hmm. I think we're going to Chinatown later. I wonder what I can get… I don't even have money.
Anyway… mhmm, coffee…
Caffeine isn't a drug, it's a vitamin!

My "medication", which consists of either a bottle of Mountain Dew or a cup of coffee, isn't working. I fall asleep around 4:00 a.m. and wake up around 3:00 p.m. I'm supposed to stay up during the day and sleep at night, not the other way around. Great.
My thoughts aren't "organized" right now. Forgive me.
Ugh. Random…
I have yet to redeem myself from my entry last November 9. But I haven't thought of anything decent to write about. Nice.
Anyway, updates (which wouldn't make much of a difference in your life if you don't know me or something like that but what the heck):
[Not in chronological order]
I'm not on hiatus anymore! I ended it about 3 or 4 days after I publicly said online that I would go on one. I realized quite a number of things though. But I just couldn't stand it. Haha.
My band, NeuMun, passed the audition for the Battle of the Bands in the upcoming fair of Ateneo High School (February 1, 2008. That's a Friday. Heh.)
I got my haircut the day after that post. It's long again. . . but it's still short. (Say what? Labo.)
I started working on a vector of Paramore. It's just half-done but it could pass as "finished" to other people. Hehe. Honestly, I'm too lazy to finish it 
The Seniors are occupying the new building in the high school department - the annex 2. We were all supposed to be on one floor. But then there during the typhoons, there were leaks from the ceilings so 4 sections had to move to the lower level. The rooms have their own washrooms but the problem is you have to wait in line in between classes because everyone needs to go. Pfft. Anyway, I could go on complaining but I won't. Hah! I'm just thankful we have a well-lit classroom. Hehe.
I received a bag of Tootsie Roll during our Kris Kringle yesterday. I was surprised it was my seatmate who picked my name. No wonder she kept asking me who I picked. (Thanks Joan!!!)
Third Quarter Exams. 'Nuff said.
CHRISTMAS BREAK BABYYY!!! Haha. Won't be having academics until the 7th of November! XD
Our school fair/talent fest will be on January… for seven days! (four-day talent fest and the usual three-day fair. I'm looking forward to the souvenir items. They look… good actually. Err… last high school fair for us! )
My dad and I had sushi day earlier, then we went to this book shop near the place where we ate. I ended up buying 5 books yesterday for less than one thousand bucks. Haha! Yeh!
The Globalization of Poverty and the New World Order - Michel Chossudovsky
Single White Female - John Lutz
Galing Cine Café - Nestor de Guzman
Selected Poems - Merlie M. Alunan
Making Straight Circles (Short Story Collection) - Maria L.M. Fre-Felix

[entry cross-posted on my multiply]
Oh hello! I'm Gabby Sarmiento. My real nickname is, yes I know I just said it in the previous sentence, Gabby. But some people call me Gubbeh.
I was born on the nineteenth of the six month in the year nineteen-ninety.
I love sports but sports don't seem to love (not even like) me.
I love sleeping as much as I love eating (I love eating oh-so much.)
I'm a Lomographer (Lomomanilan... Sorry if I'm like a broken record. I'm just ecstatic to be one of them) and not so much of a photographer, I only use a digital p&s... sometimes. Ok. Now, I have the D40 to play with.
I love to play the guitar (and bass), but my band's kind of... you know, busy with school. (again)
Oh crap. Why bother... Just read (not copy) my blog if you want.
Please inform me if you intend to use any of my entries, photos, or music files. (Though I don't plan to upload those here. I have a multiply account for that.) Or if you intend to use my style of blogging.

Thank you!
Okie dokie. Gub-bye!
