☆ THE WALKING CONTRADICTION ☆

Taina is your typical, introverted 17-year old born under the star of Taurus. She's the shy-and-quiet type who, when online, turns into her evil and sarcastic alter-ego, Yuki. From her biased point of view, she considers herself as a rabid yaoi fangirl, a budding writer, a frustrated artist, an idealistic realist, and a lost soul creating her place in the world.

 

Among other things, she enjoys reading, psychologizing people, writing, web designing, drawing, watching anime, conversing, eating, a bit of debating, walking, traveling, sleeping and drowning herself in music. At the moment, she is trying to fall deeply and wholly in love with the Lord.

 

In her own little way, she is constantly making steps to achieve her goal of world domination, (cliché as it may sound) hauling the Philippines from its third-world status through the revival of its own culture.

☆ VANILLA FRIES ☆

...is a never-ending story. It came from the shortened version of French fries and vanilla ice cream. Why, you ask? Because the two go better together than with ketchup. And because the author had no imagination, and was eating said finger food smothered in aforementioned dessert when she was thinking up of a blog name. Ta-da! XD

 

☆ COVER PAGE ☆

Version one features the fanservice-y Host Club from the manga/anime Ouran High School Host Club by Bisco Hatori. Blue and yellow abound in an attempt to create a summery feel. Image came from Sakura Dance, texture from Karmakaze Designs and brushes from Imprints. Created using Adobe Photoshop, coded with Microsoft Frontpage.

listening to: Bokura No Love Style - Suzumura Kenichi & Fujita Yoshinori
mood: enlightened

Yesterday I called UST up and learned that I actually passed the special test and the talent test. I was... a bit surprised, but then I was expecting it. It would've been terribly disappointing if I didn't pass.

My friend Nicole called me up the other day, informing me of the scholarship she got from DLSU - College of Saint Benilde. All the fees were waivered, and the only thing she has to maintain is a GWA of 2. Somehow I regret not following up the scholarship test for CSB--I really wanted to take up the Multimedia Arts course there. ;_;

Oh well. I'm happy for her, though. I think the course she chose really suites her well.

After having a talk with dad and my lola, I've eliminated UE and UP from my choices. I realized, if I'm going to be studying something for the next four years, and then spend the rest of my life woking in a field related to my course, then I should pursue what I really like. Something I'm really passionate about, nevermind about what other people will say.

So my college confusion was laid to rest and I went to UST in the afternoon to submit my credentials. Enrollment will be on the 8th of June, and I'm really excited. I'm going to apply for a working scholarship, knowing that my course (Advertising Arts) might be expensive in the long run.

I wouldn't mind the work--it'd be a great way to meet new people and get acquainted with the office and school people. I think it would be fun.

The only thing I'm worrying about, really, are the floods that plague the vicinity of UST. ;_; And lucky me, it's June, the rainy rainy month. ._.

...I'm feel so happy and light as if, forgive the cliche, a great weight has been lifted off my shoulders, or a great thundercloud which has been bothering me for the past two months finally got dispelled. I just realized that I haven't fully spent my summer vacation in a way that I would like to because I've been worrying too much.

I'm happy. :D
