Everyone's stressing over the "Buying a new house" thing.
YEY.
Look, I know buying a new house isn't a walk in the park. It requires a whole lot of money and right decisions.
We've been on a look-out for would-be potential new house and/or a condominium for awhile now, actually.
However, it was only a few weeks back when my uncle finally set his sights upon this particular 3-storey house here in Manila.
Negotiating with the owner got us a 10% discount on the 8 million flat price he had on the skeleton house.
The 10% helps, but it's not enough.
I did tell my uncle lots and lots of times that with that amount of money, he could buy a bigger house in the south. A bigger house with a nice little garden, a front porch, nice community, etc.
I know he was considering the thought of what I said but, my cousin just had to ruin it all.
He's a damn selfish 30+-year old big brat who is currently jobless (and he doesn't even want to have a job)... or a family of his own.
Anyway, they're still negotiating on the price. My uncle might be able to bring the price lower cause 8 million is too much for a house like that. Seriously. :|

We went to Robinson's Otis for awhile, and I got to drink a grande-sized Toffee Nut Latte earlier. 4 additional stickers to my collections. A few more and I'll be able to get that Starbuck's planner I've been eyeing for days now.

Everything was fine in Otis. I thought nothing would go wrong today. How terribly wrong I was.

Back at home.... There I was, inking a couple of my owls and minding my own business, when my aunt suddenly started talking about how my cousin and I should talk about the planning of the room, else she won't buy the house. :|
Like, what the hell? It came to me as a boasting statement. Seriously.
Hell, you have money, I know. But seriously, man? Do you really have to boast on about it? :|
I don't get adults sometimes... No, slash that... I don't get adults MOST of the time.
We don't see you as bank, dear. You're a family member, not a bank. Do keep that in mind and please stop boasting about your money.

I got into a mini-shouting fight with them when they, the "adults," started on about how I should share rooms with the others.
I was like, "WTH are you on?! I WANT MY OWN ROOM. I DEMAND MY OWN ROOM!!!!"
Yeah, I lost my cool. And no, I didn't say the "WTH are you on?!" thing. My family wouldn't even understand that. :|
I just want my own room. :| I've never had my own room. :|
Is it too much to ask??!! T___T
I've been sharing rooms with a GUY, for goodness sake! A pig, no less, for the whole of my life!
I think I deserve my own room if I'm the one who's gonna work her ass off for her family. I NEED my privacy. I NEED my own room.
I know I sound selfish and all, but really, it's hard for a girl of my age to share rooms with a guy and not just any guy. :|

Anyway, had a rough time after that, then I started remembering someone.
*le sigh*

Why are you talking to me again like nothing happened? Am I the only one affected? If so, how completely embarrassing it is for me, then.
*le sigh*

One day, I shall rent a condo with Carla(lol) and then, 2 guys(like Nick Jonas) will serenade us with this sort of song:



kthnxbei.

11-10-10: Wednesday

Finally got to have a cup of one of my favorite drinks ever, after months and months of horrible waiting. Meh. I just love this drink so much! ♥ Too bad it's a seasonal drink though, but I guess that's what's really makes it special. Apparently, when it's not of the season, there's a very close alternative drink for it. Forgot what particular drink though, must ask Carla again. :|

That day, I was with Carla and Juls at Baliwag. Carla was forcing me to eat chicharon, but she did not succeed on her efforts on making me eat cholesterol.

Went to Starbucks Torre with them for awhile. Got our drinks then proceeded back to SDA.

Well now, the walk back to SDA wasn't exactly that nice... as always.
Mistah Juls had the brightest idea of deciding to use the very narrow way on the left, which made it very hard for me because I was wearing heels of 4-inches.

CONVENIENTLY, in the middle of said walkway, there was a metal engine of some sort, then a very very small walkway, then a puddle. Very nice. Basically, the very narrow walkway was then divided into 3 small parts in which only 1 part was available for passing. I'll leave that up to your imagination because I'm not very good at explaining stuff.

It was before I saw the said obstacle that Mistah Juls said from behind me, "Monica, I'm so scared for you right now." Then, I saw the mini pathway and muttered a... "Oh shit."

Btw, I got through that alive... Yeah well, I'm not a typing ghost here, am I?
I would say I didn't trip, but then I would be lying. I did trip. But, only a bit.
I swear.

Got to hang out with Anna, Carla & Juls inside the student lounge.
Hoorah!
I'd most likely go to school earlier on Wednesdays just to hang out with them.
Had a lotta fun. 8D .... even though the tripping part wasn't that nice.

Can you say freezing? That room needs some major adjustments ASAP! I mean, how are you supposed to draw when it's freakin' freezing inside??? :| Meh. Oh right, I remembered then that I forgot to give my walk cycle to my prof... for midterms. But but, Carla and the others didn't give theirs. :| It's so weird. :| Same prof, just different schedule. This shall continue to bother me till I see my midterm grade. The agony of waiting.

Gella & I reported about Straight ahead actions & Pose-to-Pose actions. We reported quite fast. I bet we finished in about 5 minutes or so.
Then, after all the reports were done, we proceeded on watching Disney's Frog Princess. Didn't exactly want to watch it again, so I went out of the room a couple of times.

CADVIS2

We didn't do anything other than animating our midterm plate. Yes, that's about it.
But first, a boring lesson ensued then that. Yes, that. K.

VIDPRD2
Watched our Horror films then... dismissal. O_O

Waited for 2 hours with Khat, Gella, Nana, Hiro & Carlos in the caf.

3DANIM2

Just passed our midterm plate and we were free to go. :|

Meh.

Well, I don't know what I'm supposed to do now. I'm pretty darn bored. I don't want to sleep yet. :|

Oh yeah! Started watching this series called, Pretty Little Liars.


Quite nice so far. :) I like it. :)
