FINAL BLOG POST :(

15 - Food Wins!

"FOOD IS BETTER THAN LOVE" 

 

Have you ever been in a relationship but in the long run, it did not work out? Have you ever been in a relationship where you get so irritated with your girlfriend or boyfriend you just burst out and fight? But have you ever been in a relationship where the love of your life cheats on you?

Painful right? As you can see…as an individual who has witnessed the pains that love has caused, I now tell my self that FOOD IS BETTER THAN LOVE. Why is food better than love.

When you’re in a restaurant and there’s a pretty girl or a handsome boy  at the other table, you’re food won’t lose its attention on you. It won’t even run off to the other table to flirt with him or her.

You can look at food porn without having to keep them from people or searching on  your incognito bar.

You can’t eat half of your partner then put him or her in a box and keep it in the fridge because you’re saving him or her for later when you want more.

Food won’t give you std’s

Food will never ever complain about you not calling him or her or not texting him or her.

Bacon, because who feels hate when you eat bacon?

Food won’t judge you. If you’re feeling a little down and there’s a bag of lays or a tub of ice cream calling  you waiting for it to be consumed by you, they won’t tell you that you cant eat a chip or a spoon because you’ll get fat or its gross.

Food won’t ever turn it’s back on you, no matter how irritating you are or how bitchy or cocky. FOOD WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU.

Food never ever breaks your hard. No matter how bad your food is, food will never break your heart

AND lastly food will never ever make you wait for forever. It’ll only take you 30 mins to 4 hours to wait for food. Unlike people, it takes forever for them to come back to you.

So if you want your heart broken, go ahead, love someone for a short time, hurt them, leave them. But fill never ever hurt you. Love food because food loves you.

14 - My favorite band

"5 Seconds of Summer"

 So from reading my blogs, now you know my favorite book, animal, and food. Now I'm gonna tell you my favorite band, the loves of my life next to pizza. Yes, the LOVES of my life.

See how perfect they are. I'm gonna spare you the info about their life and stuff and I'm gonna focus on their work and their hotness. So the one from the left, his name is Calum Hood. He's kiwi by the way and he is the bassist of the band, he is also their vocalist (very hot vocals). The next one is Luke Hemmings, he's their main vocalist but all of their voices are equally perfect. He also plays the guitar, both acoustic and electric. Next to him is Michael Clifford, and he's their guitarist, their main guitarist. he also writes some of their songs. Well, all of them do haha. He can finger those guitars really well. Last but not the least, Ashton Irwin. He plays the drums, does the back up vocals and sometimes do the singing as well.

They are a rock band from Australia (Aussie power) Their career sky rocketed on 2012, where they released their first ever EP entitled "Somewhere New"  which contained my favorite songs like "Beside You", "Unpredictable", and "Out of My Limit". Since the start I have been watching them, from radio guestings, TV appearances, and their YouTube channel. I have seen other fans tweet, blog, and post about them on social media. That was the time that made me realize that fans are their artists backbones for fame. But they're still hot. Very hot.

I know that you've heard of "She Looks So Perfect" and "Amnesia" and "Good Girls". They always play that in the radio. Which also caused them to become more popular. This year, they're gonna be releasing their newest album "She Sounds So Good" and I am EXCITED!!!

All in all, 5 Seconds of Summer will always be in my heart. ♥

13 - Entertainment Speech

"Eulogy"

What you'll be reading is my eulogy for Gio who stars as Juanito who is also my boyfriend who died because of different causes haha. ENJOY!

“Maybe, I’ll start by saying I never h regret anything. But I must say, I wish things turned out the way we wanted it to be. Because I won’t be saying this if it didn’t happened. But looking at the bright side of things, I would never know what love was until Jargonito brought me the definition.

I Remember the first time he told me he loves me.It was 11:43 in the evening and I don’t know what to say. He made my heart bloom with so much joy that I got lost for words. I thought that I didnt love him but when the phone call was about to end, I told him the real deal and he never doubted for a second. Ever since that night, he always remind me how much he loves me and he never failed to make me love him even more.

I remember when we had our first fight. It only took three minutes to make everything okay.. We know everything about each other that is why we always come back to each other when we sometimes drift apart. I would always remember this times because it really made me feel that whatever thing I or him wmight do, we will still find a route to each other.

Remember the days when we compared our love to the past loves we’ve been? I clearly remember that I did not love any man the way I loved you. And I still remember that you told me I was your one great love. The one that made you feel home without even touching the tip of your fingers. And I love that. I love you made me feel that. At least, I can tell myself, once in my life, I had this man that made me believe in forever. You changed my perception in a lot of things.

I would like to remember you as a dream. The dream that once came true. The dream that made you realize a lot of stuff. The dream I won’t forget. I was really happy when we met because you gave me a lot of reasons to continue living even though I’m hurting. You were my light and now that you’re gone, I can’t see anything. You are my destination. You are my haven. You were the safest and warmest place for a lost cause like me.

Juanito, I feel hell right now. Because I wasn’t able to explore
 every chambers in you. But whatever happens, you are forever in my heart. You took a piece of me that I didn’t regret.

To tell you, I ain’t prepared. I’m not ready yet. I don’t want to let go. I don’t want to say goodbye, but I have to. Because if I don’t, I will never move on and I’ll never know if there’s someone willing to drown in me the same way I drowned in you

12 - Pizza

"PIZZA IS LIFE"

 

I honestly don't know what to blog about at first. lol. But an image that flashed in my mind caught my attention. It made me stop. It made me stare blankly. I slowly put the pieces of that image in my head. Alas it was the image of my one true love. PIZZA. If you aske me "on the scale of 1-10, how much do you love pizza?" I might slap you because my answer is not withing your scale or range. But after that, I'd answer, I'd trade the universe for pizza. If that does not prove my love for  pizza, be prepared.

Way back in the year of 2008, where I already had a mind sufficient to know what's right and wrong, what's good and what's not, my sister who studied back at our province, came to visit us. As I was playing while watching TV (I'm a multi-tasker back in the days, but somehow it wore off when i need it the most), my dad came through the door and I was expecting to see my big sister (who can sometimes be the bane of my existence), but as my sister walked through the door, she had a box on her hands. She carefully pplace it on the table and saw heaven. The hot, soft, yummy crust, the oozing, melted, stringy cheese, and the delicious pepperonis said hello to me, My eyes saw what paradise looked like, and i carefully cradled a slice in my hands. Examining every it of beauty that slice contained, it caught me in awe. As i take my first bite, My eyes just closed in response to the deliciousness of the pizza. I smiled and devoured yet cherished that slice of pizza.

I can eat pizza everyday for the rest of my life. I am truly, madly, deeply, foolishly, completely crazy in love with pizza. My love for pizza, it cannot be describe in words. words will never be enough. I can lif in America and have pizza everyday. if other girls want netflix and pizza, PIZZA IS ALL I NEED. I know this is nonsense but I have to post my love for pizza. So if you see me and you wanna be my friend, pizza is the answer. :)

11 - APC's Anti-Smoking Campaign

"Are you a smoker or not?"

I honestly do not know why people, specially smokers, love to smoke. I mean, why smoke? Is being unable to breathe the greatest feeling in the world? Is filling up your lungs with smoke a good feeling? No right? Well not being able to breathe sucks.The smell of a cigarette smoke is just, unexplainably horrible. When I come near people who smoke, they just smell horrendous. I'm not a smoker, obviously. I even pledge on my opwn life to never ever smoke a cigarette. This some how takes me back to the movie which was originally a book that I love, The Fault in Our Stars. 

If you ask me, "Is smoking harmful?". YES it is harmful, and YES it can harm others who do not smoke. If i can go back to my old school and show you the poster of a human, half of its body is the male and the other half is a female, you can see what smoke can do to your body parts and organs. Smoking also causes cancer. So I say, NO TO SMOKING. I also say NO TO SECOND HAND SMOKING. I'm glad that APC has an Anti-Smoking Campaign. If it wasn't for this campaign, the hallways would be reeking with smoke. If smoking is stopped all over the world, the risk of lung cancer will decrease. that would be the best progress the world could ever make, right?

Although, vaping has been "a thing" now a days. Specially for teens. I have friends from New York and Canada who are only 14-16 years old, and they vape. They told me there were no drugs. I see students outside the campus, right in front the entrance and the exit, vaping and smoking, and I can see that they bond through vaping. They even share their vape pens. I don't know why but I like the smell of vape pens. I've been wanting to try and vape. I'm not desperate though, I just wanna try. Of course I'll try the ones with no drugs in it. Yet I'm still against smoking, cigarette smoking in particular.

Let's save the people from lung cancer and let us not smoke. :)

10- Service above Self

"Bayan o Sarili?"

That was the question that caught my attention during last week's seminar on "Bayani ba to?". Last week they also showed us a trailer on the new movie "Heneral Luna" comig out on September 9. The producers were there and all that. Everything that was taught there, from the stories of our heroes (mostly Jose Rizal) to the questions that we students also asked, I can't describe it in any other words rather than the word "COOL".

I thought that this seminar would be boring, telling us to honor our country, buy stuff from our country, help the Philippines with its economy. I was thinking of not going at first. BUT NO. I'm sure glad I did. This seminar wasn't an ordinary "Jose Rizal was born blah blah blah" but it made me laugh and it amazed me at the same time. The panel where the director was there and John Arcilla (I was also hoping for Paulo Avellino, but it's okay) and they made me realize how our generation have been a disgrace to our country. Jose Rizal did not die in the middle of a field, talking about how  "Our childern are the future" just so we could all waste time on watching nonsense videos, consuming our time in video games. Right now, if he was looking down at us, he'd be doing this:

All of that all goes down to the word "ALTRUISM". What is altruism? Well, altruism or selflessness is the principle or practice of concern for the welfare of others. It is a traditional virtue in many cultures and a core aspect of various religious traditions and secular worldviews, though the concept of "others" toward whom concern should be directed can vary among cultures or religions. In short, SERVICE ABOVE SELF. Ever Since I was in high school, altruism has been practiced. In our English class, our english teacher required us to write about altruism, our country and our love for our country. This was the only seminar, out of all the seminars I attended, this was the only seminar that encouraged me to serve our country and honor our heroes.

9 - SoCSIT Week

"SoCSIT Week"

Last week was a week dedicated for SoCSIT students. As a freshman, it was nice to experience the so called event for SoCSIT students. The opening for this event was a parade, which was odd because we had to walk around the school parking lot and no one was actually watching except for my co-SoCSIT people. We had this theme which we had to dress like the old times and where we had to make a banner for the represent the block. The following we had this event called "FAME OR SHAME". It was the most embarrassing moment of my life. My group and I sang. Sadly we got "Shame" and had to drink this weird weird juice, it was made of miced Milk, soysauce, pepper and who knows what.

On Thursday, well, we had this "Metro Manila Shake Drill" and we walked far far away from our school since APC was a heck of a tall building. After that there was a Sushi eating contest. I wanted to join. Trust me a wanted to. I just finished eating lunch and I was full, then they called out for contestants and there was a prize. I'd join for the free sushi, not for the prize though. Unfortunately I couldn't because I was full and it was my mom's birthday on that day. (Happy birthday Mom :D). It was also "Mr. and Ms. SoCSIT contest", a pageant of the most "beautiful"  and the most "handsome" fellows in our society, the (SoCSIT society). Oh and it was also the day for our boys in our block who played basketball  against the upper classmen in the SoCSIT society. They lost but at least they had fun.

Friday night was the most awaited night among the other nights that fell under SoCSIT week. I was excited and all, I faced the long long line at the MRT station just to get to school on a Friday night. When I arrived, I heard bands playing and people dancing. From the outisde, I honestly thought "Wow, this party is packed. This is gonna be a fun night", but when I got in, it was quiet, bands were playing, people were mostly sitting down, talking, doing nothing. It wasn't that fun but, it was okay. Kudos to the JPCS officers. They had a successful SoCSIT week. I hope next year they do throw the best party among the other schools in APC.

Over all, it was a fun week or "days". I just hope that next year, it would be more fun. :)

8 - How I think of life

"Regression"

re·gres·sion

rəˈɡreSH(ə)n/

noun

1. 1.

   a return to a former or less developed state.
2. 
   

Many people say that when you face all your problems now, you will no longer have problems in the future. Many people think that a sad soul will always lead to a sad life. But does any of us notice that, we would be so happy in a number of days, but after that, we'd be extremely sad. It's like, the amount of happiness that we felt was equal to the amount of pain that we will feel. Somehow, life always finds a way to balance things. God finds a way to balance things.

Imagine that your life is a roller coaster ride that only goes up. Yeah it is exciting, but it won't be exciting for long. Imagine your life is a roller coaster ride that only goes down. Scary, exciting, but don't you want to go up sometimes? So when you think that life is unfair, that life is shit, that life is happiness, think again. 

If you know what regression means (see definition above), then you probably know what I'm talking  about. Life can't be all good or all bad. Like ying and yang, how it show's equality between positive or negative. Life always finds a way to go back to the middle. Everything is equal. So you can't just say that life is unfair. Life is fair, you're just not open to facing your problems.

I didn't take this from juju stuff. Or superstition thingys. I got this thought just by staring at the wall for a looong time. So everyday, live your life like you're expecting it to be "the best day" of your life or "The worst day" of your. Expect problems and expect rewards.

7 - Save The Elephants

"Preserve The Elephants"

So as you can see, I am calling out to everyone, specially those environmentalist and animal lovers, to please please please be aware of what is happening to the elephant species right now. During the 1970's, there were almost a million elephants roaming around the world. They're very cute and very cool. They are known for their ivory tusk that people turn into accessories or utensils or sometimes they eat it. Well because of these tusks, people have abused the elephants. They kill them just to take their tusks away. Imagine a world without those cute elephants from those documentaries that could make you cry.


I have this huge heart for animals. I have 8 dogs, 2 birds, and 3 cats. Well they're not in one house but I still love animals! In movies, whenever a dog or a cat or a pet dies, I cry and bawl like a baby. Animals can show us love. Sometimes animals can love us better that a human can. but my point is save these elephants because from more than a million, it all went down to below  500,000 elephants. Imagine that, within 4 decades, their species decreased in half. As I said, WE SHOULD BE ALARMED.



So if you're thinking  "Does she think blogging about this and us reading would help those elephants?" My answer would be, yeah. Well, somehow. That is why I'm introducing you to a shop, an online shop that sells clothes, this shop is called "Ivory Ella". They will donate 10% of their profit to help save the elephants. Not only will you help the elephants, you will also look very damn cute. If you don't want to buy, you can directly donate to savetheelephants.org/

Every single cent will go to wild life centers to help save the elephants, to give them shelter, food, health aid and basically a safer world to live in.

So please people, help the elephants. Because they're cute and they're big and with out them, the world and the animal kingdom will never ever be complete.

6 - My Advice For All The Girls And The Boys

"Don’t Just Try To Let Go. LET GO."

            As teenagers, we love someone so much that we are in love with the idea of being in love not even reality could turn our minds. Even though they hurt us, even though the truth is just right in front of us, it doesn’t matter. We won’t listen. We won’t even tap on to the idea because the truth hurts. What we have, what we see and what we know wouldn’t make a difference. This person means everything to you and you would do anything and everything to be in your well-defined reality forever. 

            But maybe things aren’t aligning to what you want right now. Maybe it’s really NOT meant to be. What if it’s really time to let go?

            You are hurt, in pain and everyone knows. Your heart, crushed into million little pieces. But still you wouldn’t.  You just can’t.

            A million reasons are still holding your heart to him/her. How could you? It’s their smile that brightens up your bad day. One message or text from them and your heart just races. Those simple “Good morning! :)” and “What are you up to?” can turn your frown upside down. When everything just messes with your head, one call can change everything. It’ll all fall back into place again.

            With all that, you cannot deny that it is all the same. The truth has changed everything and there’s no erasing in your mind. Yes, your love might be incomparable, but right now isn’t the right time. It isn’t easy. It never was and it never will. “It hurts but it would hurt more to stay”.

            Holding on is one big move. It takes a huge piece of your bravery to love, but it takes more courage and strength to let go and end the story. But don’t worry, there’s a lot of time in the world. Time will put back all those broken pieces and make you whole again for another attempt to begin again.

5 - Reflecting on a book

"The First Phone Call From Heaven By Mitch Albom"

In this world, everyone has a story to tell. Whether these stories are about life, about love, or about a miracle.  In this human world, it is constant that the story of one’s great doing would spread throughout world. One shocking event could be heard by others. After reading Mitch Albom’s “The First Phone Call From Heaven” I have come across of one thought that the stories that live among us can reach to others that connects us with one another.

            These stories connect us throughout the world. Words spread like lightning. It spreads and we don’t even know it. In the book, Tess Raff

erty, Jack Sellers, Katherin Yellin, and Sullivan Harding all shared one story, one phenomenon that shocked not only them, but the whole town. As this miracle was exposed, every person who lost a loved one is expecting a call from heaven in Coldwater.

            Love is what keeps us together in this cruel yet wonderful world. If it wasn’t for love, we wouldn’t have hope. Like the citizens from Coldwater, they all hoped to be called by their departed loved one from the other side because they simply love and miss them. Love is something that is wonderfully created by God for us to share not to those who are only familiar to us, but also to those who seem impossible love.

We should never build a wall or boundary or set limits to who we’re supposed to love. We should break not only our walls but also theirs to widely spread the love that will keep us together and make our bonds stronger.

            These stories of love and hope connect us in ways that others will hear and see. We share these stories to others; they share these stories throughout the world. Others who will hear will relate, and magically a connection is made. Life may set us apart but love is made to hold us together.

4 - THE BEST BOOK EVER

"Every Day by David Levithan"

One of my hobbies or one of the many things I do to pass my time is to read books or blogs and magazines and articles. When I read, I make sure that I get something from what I read or at least feel something. There would be books where i could see myself in the characters or sometimes i could see myself n a certain situation in a book. When I read a good book, I can finish 1 book in 1 seating. Sometimes when the book is so freakin' long, I take about a week or two. And I know my books, specially when it's about romance /sci-fi / comedy.

I've been hearing about this book for 3 months before I bought and read it. They told me it was not worth reading, some said it was boring. A friend of mine dared me to read it because he knows how bored I easily get when I read a boring book. I wanted to prove to him that I can finish the book so I started reading Every Day. Every Day started off with the main character "A" waking up in another person's body and living his or her life for just 1 day. Apparently he wakes up in a guy's body named Justin who has this typical teenage life. "A" then started his day doing what Justin always do. When he got to school he met Justin's girlfriend Rhiannon who feels that Justin doesnt love her back. "A" basically can return to memories and information about what this person knows. 

I'm a girl, a little hopeless romantic. I like it when the girl or guy waits for the love of their lives. I like it when they feel pain, but in the end it's them who wins the guy or girl. I like underdogs. I like people who sacrifices. "A" fell in love with Rhiannon, but he doesnt know what to beacause he won't be able to remain in her life or at least be near her since he transfers to another body everyday. So he basically did everything to get to talk to her. Travel for hours even if he was miles and miles away just to get to her.

Every Day has taught me a lot of things. When it come to living your life, you should live it day by day without regreting the things you do good and the things you do bad. When it comes to problems, problem will always be problems and they will laways stay in our lives. We solve one, another one comes again. When it comes to love, when you love someone, you would want what's best for them, you'll do everything for them, you'll sacrifice for his or her happiness, even if he or she is your happiness.

3 - The One I Lost

"Come back to me"

Ever lost something that is really really important to you? Something that you're used to being with it every single day? Something that helps you survive everyday and helps you to shut the world and creating a peaceful one for yourself? Well unfortunately I've experienced  great loss today (for 2 dys till now)


So i lost something that I have been very VERY careful with ever since I bought it. I lost my GOD DAMN EARPHONES. I've had it for over a year. I have saved most of my money just to buy my earphones (which was hella expensive). And now, now I've lost the most important thing to me. I get mad every time someone touches it. I get mad every damn time someone takes it without asking me. I get mad every time my sisters use it. I was very very careful of it.

I lost it 2 days ago. I was getting ready for school and I picked it up and put it on my bed. I was in a hurry so I got my bag and phone, but i left my earphones. I got in the car and my dad started to drive. When we got to EDSA I looked for my earphone nd found tht it was not with me, I was contented that I left it at home. The day passed by without me worrying about it. But little did I know, when I got home and got my laptop to do my shenanigans, I COULDN'T FIND IT. I flipped every god damn bed. Looked underneath everything but still I couldn't fine it. When I lose things I get paranoid and trust me I don't like my mind every time I loose something. I think of the worst case scenarios and stuff.

I came to the point where I asked and prayed to God to lead me where my earphones are. But then I remembered something from church during a pastor preaching about a commandment " thou shall not have any idols before me". He said that one way or another, God can help us get rid of our idols if we fully commit our time to him. And maybe I thought of it in a way that, God is only testing me or telling me that he is jealous because of my earphones. So i try not to make a fuss about it.







But I mean, MY GOD PLEASE GIVE ME BACK MY EARPHONES. I cannot live without it. So this is in memory of my trusty friend. PLEASE COME BACK TO ME NOW.

2 - An Empty Heed

 "Moments Stay"

Ever sat on chair or on the floor and just start to think of memories that made us laugh and made us cry? I have had a lot of them. I even had music playing to set my mood. Every time the song changes, my mood changes as well.

There would be times where I'd think of my friends and I laughing about the most hilarious thing that they did. I'd be sitting and laughing by myself. Catching myself, I start to think about how beautiful our minds are, How our minds can store each or our memories. How in an instant thought, it could make us feel anything. How it could make us cry, laugh, laugh, and sometimes, it could make us learn from our mistakes.

Our mind stores memories. Like a disk or an SD card, it stores files. These files are memories that we've made. Memories that we have lived in. Memories that we keep for good. But there are special memories that live deep in our minds, memories that are kept close to the heart. Those are what we call MOMENTS. Remember when they say "Let's live in the moment"? It's because it either could be a once in a lifetime opportunity. A moment that you should never EVER miss.

All of us have moments that makes us smile every time we try to relive it. There are moments that are painful yet we keep in our head, and we try to take them out, but no matter what we do, we can't. There's this constant pain that would be the reminder of these moments. Every time we get hurt, our minds would have these flash backs. We'll tell ourselves "I'm over that" or "I've moved on from that". Yeah, maybe they did, but the pain and those moments will ALWAYS stay.

1 - My Sweet Introduction

"Hello Reader!"

I've decided to put an introduction as my first post so you wouldn't wonder like "What the hell is she saying?" or "Where the f*ck does she get these".

My name is Zian Denisse G. Vertudes. You can call me Zian or Z. I'm a girl, obviously. I'm 16 going on 17 *sings*. I was born on August 7, 1998. So all the late 90's kids there, WASSUP?! If you're the same as my age, well, you might want to look forward on reading whatever I will write about life, experiences, food, places, and sometimes amazing things.(things that amaze me atleast) I have a tumblr blog too, it's sort of personal so I won't share that here.

I'm a college student, a freshman in Asia Pacific College. Search for it! Enroll too if you wanna. I have amazing friends, from my high school and from my current school. I'll write about them too. I've experienced every single hardship a student can go through so if you need any advice, just go through me haha.

I love music, I love bands, I love food, I love traveling, playing the piano, and I'm in love with someone. I am very dramatic. I write good blogs when I feel something deep and I would just want to share it the world. Sometimes I'm able to write weird one. Sometimes posts about my thoughts. And I have a big big big heart.

That's all I have for now :)
