Revealing the True Colors of derealluigi

HUNGER GAMES is not all about FOOD

I want to scream to the top of my lungs and say that: THIS BOOK IS BEYOND AWESOME!!!!! Okay so maybe not that much excitement is needed, but boy this book deserves a review I probably won’t be able to give.

You can already get the premise of the story from the other reviews so I won’t bother with that. Can I just say that the author did an exquisite job of finding the right voice for Katniss? I already like her and I struggle with her while she is playing the Hunger Games. Katniss does a lot of things that will cause some people’s eyebrows to shoot up, but you have to remember she has to survive. Even though she does some things that seem not totally right you know her heart is more or less in the right place. She is 16 (an aged used a lot in young adult novels I’m noticing)and still figuring out her stand on the important things. The whole thing is kind of disturbing, but you can see the appeal it would have on audiences. I mean I got sucked into it so it isn’t really that far fetched that people could actually become well… so morbid. 

I can say this though, the book had almost everything in it. Thrills, chills, suspense, humor (only a little but it’s there), romance (kind of questionable I guess), struggle with identity, life and death situation (obviously), compassion and so much more that I’m sure I am missing. The world Collins created is extremely believable, and the dilemmas that are presented are engaging and sometimes just painful to watch, but she pulls this off with ease. People just have to read the book themselves to comprehend what I’m trying to say. Needless to say I am excited to read the next installment Catching Fire.

Absolutely Back

Again I am back on tumblr trying to continue my stories in life (Only the Juicy-es ones). Forgot why I’ve lost my interest to write here in this site 2months ago. Well Past is already at my back now so proceed. :D 

To my surprise tonight I found out that today is his Bday. Yeah it took me awhile to stumble on a better greet than an ordinary happy bday (I LOVE GOOGLE). Our conversation ended very well and with flying colors so I will call it a night. Goodbye and waiting for my DL.. so far 1day left.  

I miss my Sisters as well :(

I’ve read this post of my friend here in tumblr and it reminds me of my Engineering Trio. Ganun na ba ako ka occupied at di ko na naaalala na “ou nga pala nasan na yung dalawa kong kaibigan na kasama ko sa lahat ng subjects, sa kainan, gala, landian, maging kasamang humarot kung san-san”.

First year second sem noong kaming tatlo na lang ang laging magkasama. Nagkakasawaan na nga sa mga mukha ng isa’t -isa, ano namang magagawa namin Feeling loner kami kaya feel lang namin ang magkasama sa lahat ng oras. Every class instead na makinig sa mga Professors na boring at kung ano-anung tinuturo ay nandun kami nagdadaldalan at natatawan ng mga bagay na kung ako ang tatanungin mo di naman talaga nakakatawa. Well pag oras na ng seatwork at quiz ay biglang nalang kaming kakausap ng mga taong di naman namin kilala at sasabihing.. “Ui Friend, Musta?” Parasitism ba?? hehe We are just happy in our life doing pointless things and not taking obligations seriously. First year pa naman kami. :)

Second Year.. Naku naging mahirap na samin ang maging classmates sa lahat ng subject. Naalala kasi namin na magkakaiba nga pala kami ng course. Ako ECE ung isa CE, yung isa naman IE. Ano nga ba ang nakita namin sa isa’t isa at pipili na lang ng kami ng friends yung ibang course pa. Kung magtatanong kayo kung nagimprove ang pagiging “Studious” namin.. Sabihin na lang nating nagng worst. Same Professors kasi yung iba kaya same attitude ang pinakita namin. Kaya kung sakaling may surprise quiz naku kung ano-ano ng pagbabaliktad ang ginagawa naman sa sarili para lang makakuha ng sagot sa mga classmates. Natapos ang sophomore years wala namang bagsak, Pero friends parin ang lahat.

Moment of truth.. Third year na! Alam naman namin na darating ang araw na di na kami pede maging classmates sa mga subjects. Ito nga we have our own set of friends from our respective courses. Ako, masaya sa mga ECE friends ko na kablock rin naman namin, ganun din yung dalawa. Ito nagkikita pa naman sa school mga Twice a month yung isa.. yug isa naman baka taon ang lumipas para makita lang. haha .. Kahit di na kami magkakasama, kahit Ex-friend na ang tawag namin sa isa’t-isa.. kahit backstabbing pa ang turingan namin. ALam namin na masaya kami sa mga nagdaang taon ng school year. I miss them.. I really do. :)

Damn! I’m Lame :D

Today is my birthday. Today, I was born.

Well, not literally today. What I mean is, today is my birthday; way back a while ago – many moons ago – I was born.

As I write, my body is now finishing its 18th year of life.

Breathing, walking, beating, thinking, moving, eating, drinking, trusting, fearing, loving, parenting, laughing, singing, wondering, seeing, hearing, touching, talking life.

Thank you to all my friends for being there in my 18 years of existence. I love you all  

Time is never a hindrance to our Friendship

I can have more and more friends through time.. But my true and awesome friends will still the same.

Iba talaga ang feeling w/ Abad though konti lang kami we find ways to have fun. Katulad na nga ng nangyari kahapon. Walang katamarang Jump Shots at walang sawang pagkain ng chicharon. Masaya talagang umupo at magbalik ng mga alaala. Nostalgic if that’s what you think. 

YCE, Joanna, Benj, Rodelyn.. Salamat and I will miss you again guys! :D

My Words are not Enough

Like my title indicates, words of thank you is not enough. Three consecutive sleepless nights tapos na. Salamat sa lahat ng gifts. I love you all :D 

You can’t Define Christmas through a Dictionary

Christmas like other people have said is not TRULY the day which Jesus Christ was born, it was proven by such Bible Scholars that Jesus Christ can’t be born in December. Ok, maybe this is true and scientifically right. But have you ask the people who celebrates Christmas on why are they doing such stuff every December 25? Maybe because it was traditionally done, maybe they want to celebrate Christ birth in the world, maybe they just want to have fun, or maybe they are going with the flow…

For me Christmas is not just about those.. it is about the joy of giving what you received in the year past.. returning the blessings that you have in the entire year. It is a way of giving people  (especially unfortunate) gifts and happiness for them to forgot what suffering and pain they have felt in year pass. It is not about if Jesus Christ birthdate is DEC. 25. The thing that matters is that people try to give even for a day in their life.. reminding them the happiness of giving smile to people they love. 

Christmas taught me that feeling of content and importance. It also taught me to love the people that loved and cared for me. :) Merry Christmas guys!
