Tip 3: Get Some Perspective

When you're in college, often your whole life happens within a very small radius. You may, for example, go from class to the residence hall to the library to the dining hall to the frat house, and soon "forget" that there's a whole big world outside of this less-than-a-mile wide bubble. It can be easy to start thinking that what's happening in the bubble is all that matters in the world, which can sometimes feel comfortable, but sometimes...not. Try getting off campus now and then, or if that's not feasible, explore some parts of campus you don't know very well. When the drama of your campus life starts to take up all the space in your head, read up on some international news, or simply take a different route to class. A little perspective can go a long way in keeping you grounded.

I don't really care about the psycho thief anymore since she doesn't have any awesome friends who really really care about her. Thank you everyone who wrote a post about her. I feel the love. Soon we will gather and protest against plagiarism and blog printing, parading in cartoon t-shirts and armadillo printed underwears, waving rusty crowbars in the sky.

Good night for now. Disney Movie Night/ Milk, Cookies and Feather boa Slumber Party ongoing. I'm here at Sta. Escolastica with Sta. Escolastica people: Porky, Lem, Andene, Nicky, Mikey, Carmico, Johndale, Ate Joy, and my sisters. Details tomorrow.

Tip 4: Take Ownership of Your Choices

As a college student, you will make lots of choices - your major, your classes, your activities, your friends - to name a few. Amidst all the demands on you, don't forget that you actually have some control over your life. If you're unhappy, it's possible that changing some circumstance, or even changing the college you attend, might make you happier. However, it's also possible that simply changing your attitude toward a particular circumstances can help you feel happier. Sometimes students get stuck trying to decide between 2 choices. Keep in mind that there may be a third choice you haven't considered, or you may just need a little more time or information to make a decision. Not every choice is yours to make when you are in college, but some of them are; so control what you can control, choose what you can choose, and know that sometimes you may even have the freedom to change your mind.

Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head

Oh yes how do you like me now

Guess who got so nasty and gruesome today she wrenched off a big, greasy guy's head? I did! Well, Jeff Hardy did. I played Wrestling today. It was the best game with controllers I had ever played in the entire macaroni casserole. It's awesome shite.

NEWS:

Tomorrow, Disney Sing-along, Milk and cookies, Pajama-feather boa party. I hope it's gonna be the highlight of my week. And i hope i won't kill the Disney joy by sleeping the night away.

Saturday, Chris Jericho and Inky's Haloveday! I actually suggested some things for their day but I won't spill cus I might spoil the surprise for Mikey. Anyway i was thinking I'd draw something for Mikey as a present. Plus plus plus, my parents are gonna be here. Yay!

September 1, Roxanne's birthday and she's celebrating it here IN BAGUIO.

roux: heeeeey, and i need the five words thingy to describe me, i can't think of anything.
cray: Perky
cray: Responsible
roux: hahaha i'm responsible? what a surprise
cray: Compared to your best friend, yeah you are.
roux: hahaha cuz ur a big-time procrastinator

Look, i know i'm too awesome and i know you worship me too much and i despise that but i'm never leaving this blog just because i can't type anything anymore without having them stolen. You're too obvious. TOO OBVIOUS I TELL YOU! I could take a really really hot bath in my own blood right now.

I'm not gonna write about you anymore nor will i ever make evil plans or imagine you being eaten by evil gerbils during my sleepless nights. I will just have to understand that you love me too much and there's nothing i can do about your being a copycat. It's your nature. I guess i have to apologize to you for being so awesome and brilliant and pretty and cool and (insert more of your thesaurus words here). And yes, i'm a GAJILLION times better than you.

But tonight, the 'badmouthing about you' hole in my stomach is gonna explode right at your face, KRISHELLE SANDOVAL. This post is not even enough to explain how much I want to whack you with a shovel constantly and bury you alive.

Yes this is my last. When this post turns into the 5th recent post, you won't see your name ever again. Unless i really can't hold it much longer and still want to badmouth you 'til the end of my life.

p/s Tumblr doesn't suit hungry-and-desperate-for-awesome-ideas pigs slash printer freaks like you. Everything there would just leave you in awe forever it's gonna be the death of you. You wouldn't even know Tumblr if it wasn't for me. Am I right or am I right?

Things I DESPERATELY want to do to you:

1. Get inside your face.

2. Cut you open and feed your guts to ninja ducks without having to touch them cus your guts are dirty disgusting awful grody hairy vile and any other thesaurus terms you use to make gross a big word.

3. Make you eat your vowels since you don't use them anymore.

4. Make you realize you are you. And you die just like that.

5. Tell David Betanahu to ask you to go out on a date and you die of embarrassment not because you've been asked on a date by a 10 year old old man, but because you're you. You die just by being you.

6. Record myself singing 'You steal awesome ideas, you should be in jail' in the tune of the Alphabet song, purposely out of tune and on repeat so you'll get pissed off, then you poke your nose with a pencil. Not only are you a loser but a loser who cannot smell.

7. Tie you in a chair as Porky interrogates you in German.

8. TRY to sandwich you between Carrot Top's man boobs.

9. Make finger puppets of you and Pete Wentz then make you two kiss a passionate kiss.

10. Let Nick Rivers chase you and blow ghastly pelvic powers at you.

11. Turn you into wax and form you as a flamingo. And yes, the flamingo is a million times more awesome than you, not that you're awesome.

12. Squeeze you inside Spice Girls lollipops so they would have you as gum.

13. Push you off a building and you break into awesome glass pieces that when put together would make an awesome statue of Karen Callora.

Things I would kill you with:

1. Rusty cheese grater

2. Lady Gaga's Kermit the frog-filled costume

3. A pliers, a wrench and a screw driver

4. A sledgehammer

5. Esther

6. Karaoke machine

7. A plastic flamingo

8. Peanut butter

9. Peanut butter fingers

Tip 5: Think Before You Act (Crazy)

Sometimes college students can feel overwhelmed by their emotions. It's important to remember that thoughts, feelings, and actions are three different things. Often you have little control over how you feel or what thoughts pop into your head, but you have a great deal of control over how you act. Some thoughts or feelings that make you uncomfortable might be normal and will eventually pass. However, acting or behaving impulsively or dramatically can result in permanent consequences for yourself or other people that you may regret. So if you're having a strong emotion, slow down and think before you act. Don't deny your feelings, just be smart about how and when and where and why you express or act on them. And if some of the thoughts or feelings you have are confusing or bothersome to you, talk to a counselor or some other trusted confidant about what's up.

Now what? Beef

Yes beef. I love beef.

Anyway, I'm watching Chanel Chance again. Well, i'm about to actually and i have nothing more to say. Why do i even bother blogging everyday?

Well there is something.

I'm gonna watch Orphan cus I wanna know what's wrong with Esther. Well of course I already know what's wrong with her, thank you Wikipedia. She's a 33-year old Russian psycho trapped in a 9 year old Russian girl's body. Brilliant.

Rox and i talk. Of course we talk but we talked last night. She hated college and so was i about some other things and she wanted to go here so we could exchange pleasantries since we only have each other when it comes to disturbing and/or troubling shinanigens. She'll try to convince her mom to stay here during her weekends off and i told her to ask if she can transfer here instead since Manila is bull for her.

I'm going to South Korea next year. But only for a week or two though. But still it's gonna be so fun! I will raid their flea markets, play video games, look sophisticated enough to use my iTouch as a map, eat kimbap and breaded pork, take pictures, get my picture taken in a photo booth and sing korean karaoke songs.

Marnee invited me to her Sweet 16 in Cafe Balooga although i'm not sure i could really go cus our days off are not until the 2nd or 3rd week of August, also my parents are about to go here in Baguio so there's more chance that i couldn't go. Plus i don't want a drinking party.

My stomach's about to explode. I don't know why, i haven't eaten anything anyway except for a very meaty dinner last night, Coffee ice cream, Kitkat and more. I am suffering from frozen fingers, rapid heartbeat due to nervousness, and an about to explode stomachache as i type and if i don't find ways to relieve myself, there's gonna be chunks of meat, itouch-flavored ice cream guts everywhere.

Though my jeans are too tight
Don't feel like dancing
And all this light is too bright
Don't feel like shining
Though this room is too small
I'd rather stand against the wall

Tip 6: When it Seems Like No One is There for You, Be There for You

College students often spend a lot of time thinking and analyzing their relationships with other people. Don't forget to pay some attention to the most important relationship of all; that is, your relationship with yourself! How do you generally talk to yourself? Are you critical and impatient? Are you supportive and encouraging? Do you give yourself reasons to slack off and be irresponsible? When the going gets tough, it's great to be able to get help from other people, but it's also great to be able to access the wisdom you have inside yourself. There is a difference between feeling lonely and being alone. Feeling lonely usually means you feel disconnected from yourself and others, whereas being alone can feel just fine if you have healthy connections with yourself and other people. Be a good friend to other people, and be a good friend to yourself!

that's why i like Einstein so much

I feel as if I'm not into blogging anymore. I can't share what I love and hate, my musings, the things I badly want to do, my (in)significance in this sick sad world, everything. The blogging hole in my stomach just explodes. Kaput. I don't know maybe because I haven't done anything productive for the past 2 weeks or because i'm being robbed of my awesome ideas and then reconstructed like altered books. OH THE PAIN OF HAVING YOUR IDEAS BEING NEUTERED BY SOMEONE WITH A BAD NOSE JOB! But I still have to keep this blog until i find myself a new hobby. LivingSocial not included.

I haven't done the 2-things-I-have-to-do-to-get-through piece of apples. See. UNPRODUCTIVE. Oh and i'm trying not to curse anymore. The last time i cursed was yesterday at the movie theatre while we were watching Harry Potter. The movie wasn't that 'oh-dear-lord-i-want-to-be-a-wizard-and-use-magic-to-get-through-life' compared to the previous ones but it was okay. Sad though that Albus Dumbledore died. Curse you Snape.

I really really REALLY have to be interesting now so i'd get to enjoy my 2 pints of chocolate ice cream and Phoebe In Wonderland later. Oh and i'm fat. I know that people may like that and a few have been waiting for that to happen for 16 years, but i really don't like it.

Tip 7: Don't Let Your Pendulum Swing Too Far

Sometimes coming to college gives you an opportunity to break out of some situation or circumstance that hampered you in high school. For example, maybe your parents were over-protective, maybe you had no social life, maybe you played it really safe. When you get to college, sometimes it's tempting to swing really far in some opposite direction of where you were in high school. Going to some extreme (like partying all the time, never spending time alone, or taking haphazard risks just because you can) often leads to unhappiness. In the push to get away from where you've been, you go too far in the other direction and wind up out of whack. Think of your tendencies and patterns and habits as things that should swing like a pendulum. You want to keep the swinging steady and manageable - near the center - or you risk taking yourself on a wild ride that you'll soon want to get off.

Tip 8: Have a "Thing" You Do and Do It

Once you immerse yourself in college life, it can be easy to feel like you've actually lost yourself in the process. You might get busy (or not busy enough) with new classes, new friends, and new activities and then wake up one day and wonder, "Where am I?" It's important to have at least one thing you do that keeps you grounded and centered - something that keeps you connected to yourself. It doesn't have to be anything fancy; maybe it's an activity, a place, a ritual, or a hobby. It could be something that relaxes you, or something that amps you up. Sometimes when you feel lost or forget who you really are, it's helpful to "lose" yourself in something familiar to find yourself again.

Tip 9: Let Technology Be a Good Friend, Not a Bad One

The widespread use of computers, laptops and mobile devices has revolutionized the way college students communicate. Email, texting, and the internet allows for information to be shared efficiently and at lightening speed. Let theses advances in communication work for you, not against you. Periodically check in with yourself about HOW you use texting, Facebook, MySpace, online games, blogs, etc. Are you letting these things be your friends or your foes? Are you spending so much time on them that you are slacking off on your responsibilities? Are you being reckless with what you share about yourself online? Are you missing out on life that's happening away from the screen in front of you? Ultimately it's best to use technology in ways that enhance your life and your relationships with other people.

I don't know if you've ever felt like that. That you want to sleep for a thousand years. Or just not exist. Or just not be aware that you exist. Or something like that. I think wanting that is very morbid, but I want it when I get like this. That's why I'm trying not to think. I just want it to all stop spinning.

sushi, tempura, ninja, revenge



I love the sound of the clicking of my Doraemon purse and Bruno Coulais.

I love the smell of wet towels and wild country.

I wanna dance the belly wearing nothing but oversized Power Rangers tshirt, cow underwear and flowers in my hair.

I have to do something important today, just you know something i have to fix. Actually it's 2 things and i really have to do this fast so i wouldn't have to hold it up any longer. I just hope i'd get through it. So help me God.

I have nothing except that i've been drowning myself with multiple pints of chocolate ice cream while watching movies/shows. Yesterday we had donuts and iced chocolate at Dunkin Donuts while playing with Chris Jericho, a toy figure Mikey gave me. Then we went to Ate Joy's place to use the net, watch movies, laugh and everything nice. That was it actually.

I will so do Machine Girl on you. I suddenly wanted to watch gore films. I want to question myself like how are they made? Were there fake exploded guts everywhere during the set? How could they possibly know that the human flesh looks like that (red jelly, pasta, beans and tomato sauce) when they're ripped into pieces? Those sort of things.

College campuses today have a myriad of offices and centers and advisors available for students, and often students are completely oblivious that these things even exist for them. For example, your tuition is probably paying for things like a Fitness Center, Career Center, Counseling Center, and a Health Center. You also probably have a Student Activities Office, Student Affairs Office, Office of Residential Life, and any number of academic advisors, tutors, student group leaders, campus ministry staff, and administrators of all sorts who would be happy to talk with you. College is one of the few times in life when you'll be surrounded by so many resources and services just short walk away. Utilize who and what is there for you!

In Honor of Apollo

The 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing has come and gone. With all of the coverage, I was feeling like a kid again. This find was especially impressive: http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/LRO/multimedia/lroimages/apollosites.html

The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter has imaged all but one of the Apollo landing sites. Keep up the good work, NASA.

Eating out of boredom?

For one example of what you may have been doing to yourself, do you overeat when you are bored? Is it possible that you are simply bored to death because you are not living life to the full because of your extra weight? Let’s explore that for while and see what we find.

How bored are you?
Boredom can damage your health. Bored people eat more, drink more, and sleep more. They are more anxious, hostile, reckless, and irritable. They have difficulty concentrating and tend to watch the clock, believing time to be going very slowly. Despite the fact that boredom is widespread in our society, as we have more leisure time and more repetitive tasks, health professional are more likely to speak about
work- related stress than work-related boredom as a problem, and repetitive strain injury is considered a disease of the body, not the spirit.

If boredom is a disease of the spirit, what does that mean in terms of daily behaviour and attitudes? Clearly, boredom is a subjective experience, for two people carrying out the same repetitive task will report different levels of boredom. People with imagination may enter into an internal world of dreams; people with dexterity and high levels of concentration may work hard to complete the task quickly and move onto something else more stimulating. In terms of behaviour, bored people move from job to job, searching for a certain level of stimulation and variety. They also visit their doctors with stress headaches, get all kinds of virus infections and tend to go sick when the rugby is on the television.

Boredom is a state of mind, and I can prove it. I once worked during my university vacation in a solenoid factory. I remember a piece worker intently and speedily making solenoids at an astonishing rate. She was not bored at all. I was more relaxed, and dreamed over my task. My days passed happily without boredom. However a student colleague sat fuming through the day counting the hours to the coffee breaks, and left after two weeks, unable to tolerate this “boring and repetitive” job.

People who are easily bored love being entertained. They like noise and things happening, and the more colour and laughter the better. Not for them the holiday in a quiet place where there is time to rest and reflect: they will sit for hours fuming in traffic jams, driving half way round the country in search of things to do.

Their energy is prodigious, for boredom is the greatest motivator of all. It is wonderful to know that all teenaged children come home when they are hungry, but more miraculous still is the way that they get out of bed and go out when they get bored. Bored rich young men in particular were our greatest explorers and scientists, often making great discoveries by accident as they sought to find diversion from the endless boredom of being incredibly rich.

Boredom creeps up on you like a grey fog. At first imperceptible, the greyness increases until everything is enveloped in it and there is no way out. Unable to see clearly, one might remain in the fog for a whole lifetime, and I know many people who live empty lives and have no idea how bored they are. Often it takes a very good friend to point out that you have spent your whole life in a state of bored torpor and there are great and wonderful things to be done out there just waiting for you to do them.

So don’t let boredom ruin your health or your life: find out your bore score. If you are not too bored by the idea, why not fill it in and find out if you are sufficiently bored to get yourself going on that slimming diet, or are you goong to just sit there and dream of happier, slimmer days?

I like diets with a set menu plan 1.2.3.4.5
I tend to eat the same lunch each day 1.2.3.4.5
I often use ready-prepared meals 1.2.3.4.5
I buy the same food every week with little variation 1.2.3.4.5
I eat less than 2 fruits and 2 vegetables per day 1.2.3.4.5
There are not many foods that I like 1.2.3.4.5
I eat the same breakfast each day 1.2.3.4.5
I don’t like eating at foreign food restaurants 1.2.3.4.5

A high score means that you are very set in your ways, and your diet is boring, monotonous and repetitive. You are possibly undernourished and in need of a major physical overhaul.

A medium score means that food isn’t all that interesting to you, you do make a slight effort occasionally to eat a balanced diet, whatever that means, but you cant be bothered about all that healthy eating stuff, you just eat what you like.

A low score means that you are highly motivated to experiment with new taste sensations, recipes etc. Perhaps worrying about food and the progress or otherwise of your slimming diet makes for an interesting diversion to stop you getting bored at work or at the weekend.

Now you have found your bore score, you can see that we are all bored here in the Western world, where food is there for the taking. We don’t have to work for our pork pies by grinding the wheat, killing the pig, boiling the meat, making the pastry and baking the pie. A trip to the local supermarket is about as much work as we need to do.

Boredom with food is expressed in several ways, and it is important to recognise where you fit into this.

• Eating the same foods every day or every week is dangerous for your health because you need a wide variety of different food ingredients in your diet to keep healthy.
  
  
• Adding lots of salt, tomato sauce or some other strong sauce or pickle to everything, in an effort to liven up a meal reduces your ability to appreciate the subtle tastes of healthy foods served plain without condiments, and the added salt is very bad for your fluid balance and blood pressure.
  
  
• Not being bothered to plan the shopping or the cooking, just looking in the fridge to find it empty and getting a take away will lead eventually to a low-level malnutrition that will reduce your energy and leave you vulnerable to infections.
  
  
• Using tinned and packaged foods because they don’t take long to prepare because you don’t have the energy to stand there preparing a complicated meal, proves the point: it’s hardly surprising you feel so tired if that’s how you treat your body every day.

• If you don’t know how to cook anyway and cant be bothered/haven’t time/ to learn, then you are just a victim of the processed food industry, and they think about profits not your state of health.
  
  
• If you scoff at all this talk about healthy eating and say that life’s too short to worry about food, let’s grab a burger, and go down town, maybe you are young yet. You will learn, the hard way. You will gradually gain more and more weight and get more and more tired of feeling tired all the time.

Now you know what your “ bore score” is, maybe, just maybe you can see more clearly that losing weight is much, much more than just a number on the scales.

Losing weight is like losing part of yourself, and a part that you have got used to having around. It feels like is part of you and without it you will be somehow diminished.

In fact you will be greater, more powerful, more whole, less bored, if you are smaller ,than you can ever be while you are big. If you are prepared to get rid of that part of you, lose weight and grow smaller, then you are casting off something that has nothing much to do with you.

If you are prepared to face the truth of just how bored you are with life, then maybe, just maybe, you will be able to get going, and realise that life is there for the living, whatever size you are, and that permanent changes can be made in the way you eat every day from now on.

A good start would be to examine your diet honestly and see if you have become victim to food addiction. The most likely “food fixes” in this country are wheat, cows milk, potatoes and beet or cane suger. Just imagine excluding them completely from your daily diet and that will give you a clue about how addicted you may be to one or more of them.

An excellent way to lose weight in in fact to do just that, but make wheat, sugar cows milk and potatoes into “ Zero Foods”. I know because that is what I do to keep my weight at a normal level, and many others have found it equally useful as a way to lose weight and return to a more natural size, weight and shape. Not only that but the change of diet released me form years of undiagnosed food intolerance, with its associated psychological and physical symptoms. It set me free in a way I would never have thought possible 17 years ago. Until I discovered this way of eating then I did not realise how tired and bored I was. Now I see every day as a challenge, and my diet is filled with a wide variety of good food ingredients. Needless to say, I am no longer bored.
