Beyond Control

Halo to all.

4 Semestral Exams had been dealt with, and 2 are still standing. It's time for the final push (No, I did not mean the last push to climaxing, if you know what I mean. ;D) this Monday, and Tuesday. Just hang in there! For all these stresses will soon be over. :)

Because of which, I am really looking forward to what I'm going to do during my 1 3/4 month holiday season. One of them is continuing the Halo 4's War Games carnage, as well as the story of Spartan Ops Season 1 in my "Eksboks Twee Siiix Tee", as how drunkards say it. XD Though the settings there are sometimes repetitive, the cinematics, and story were mainly what caught my attention. For the bonus, Spartan Ops Season 1 serves as a bridge to what may be foretold in the upcoming Halo 5. Oh the anticipation 343i had built... :D

In other news, Bungie (Original developers of the Halo series) has revealed their next Video Game Franchise they will be working on for the next 10 years, and that is known as "Destiny". I definitely MUST NOT miss the chance of buying this game when it is out in stores, for this new Sci-Fi First Person Shooter is now in my list of Anticipated Games, other than the future Halo Games. :D

Is it me, or I have been talking nothing but games, games, and more games. I guess I have that non-stop addiction of holding that Xbox 360 controller and blasting any sh*t up. Lololol!

Now, on to more Romance talk, cause I just want to. :3 Referring to my previous blog, I made suspicions that the girl I eyeballed on is not attached at all. From what I noticed this week, she may have realized that I was crushing on her. And you know how I got that feeling? NYPConfessions. Bam! You said it! A confession there was made towards her, and in particular, it mentioned about watching her from French Class. But that's not all, another confession popped in, and it was made towards me, mentioning that the person had been taking notice of me during Microbiology and French Class, as well as watching me at the Exam Hall. :O

You know what I can interpret from all this? Both of these confessions were made by the same person, and that person is a friend of the girl I like. She might have told that person about me liking on her. Hence, all these confessions started showing up. But my interpretation could be wrong, as she may have sent that confession towards me, upon seeing that confession made towards her, which did not involve me at all. That could possibly mean she was crushing on me as well.

Man, I just don't get it. The moment I see her in person, my heart just naturally flutters with joy. Even those natural smiles she gave towards me makes me feel like hugging her. Awww Gawd! I'm blushing like crazy right now... :3

I'd better do something after all of my Semestral Exams are over. Maybe talk to her in Whatsapp about this? I'm scared, for I've never ever done something like this before, and I fear something bad may happen. It's like I don't want to let her go... I don't want to see the last of her... I want to see her again... Well, wish me luck, as what men do; They take risks to make good happen. Till then, see you starside.

I Am Going In

Halo to all.

It is time for me to enter what we all inevitably have to do: Exams. (If anyone thought I was entering someone, you can leave it for the fanfiction anyways. Teehee! XD) Two days away till darkness arises again. But fret not, for I have taken precautions to repel it away, by mindmapping certain topics covered for this Semestral Exam. It makes remembering stuff easier. :D

Other than that, there's some funny things that I experienced, and I would like to share them to you all. One of them is by the Twitter Name 'NYPConfessions', which basically tweets out confessions made by the many Nanyang Polytechnic students. The confessions I saw are related to facility improvements (E.g. "NYP needs a KFC/Burger King outlet." I ABSOLUTELY agree to this!), stresses (E.g. "Walking from the MRT station to the South side of the Campus is so damn frustrating."), and mainly love declarations. <3

Speaking of love declarations, I saw a hecking lot of em' popping up in my Twitter feed. Of course, that's when you realize so many are not taken right now, myself included. How I wish love is as easy as 'Boy sees girl. Girl sees boy. Boy and girl talk to each other. Boy and girl fell in love. Boy and girl promised to not let go of each other.'... Instead of 'Boy notices girl. Girl notices someone else.' :'(

Moreover, some confessions were directed to some of my classmates, including the one I previously liked. Because of these, a few of them felt suspicious that I was involved in typing those out. But I cleared it off by telling straight that I did not type anything out. (Thank God they are understanding. :) Or I would've called in for a lie detector, then go "In your face!". Lol! ^^)

With that being said, I may wanna confess something out in this blog since Valentine's Day is over: I have a feeling that the girl I used to eyeball on from November 2012 to January 2013 is NOT taken. Wanna know why?:
1) Recently, my ex-classmate obviously noticed that I like her, contrary to my classmates, and informed me that she is not attached to anyone. 
2) Apologies for the so-called stalking behavior here, but I noticed that she did not post any Facebook/Twitter/Instagram pic of just her and her significant other.
3) Perhaps her mentioning she was taken was a way of indirectly saying she knew I was already crushing on her. What supports this is the comments mentioned in one of her Instagram pics, pertaining that her NYP Crush would love seeing this, and further saying that he is the guy from the French class. (I'm the ONLY guy she knew from French class.) To prove that I knew it was me, the comments continued mentioning about the time the bus was squeezy, he deliberately moved from her classmate's side and stood beside her, making it damn obvious. (In the bus, I was initially standing beside her classmate. When more people entered the bus, I quickly moved into a vacant spacing, and ended up standing beside her.)

Referring to my 3rd reason, yes... I voluntarily moved just for the sake of standing beside her. This is because I could not resist looking at her really cute face (Sh*t, I'm blushing much, and feeling too warm right now. >o<), and those hands... God, I just feel like holding her hand, like what couples routinely do. Not to forget the days she showed that natural smile she gave to me when we saw each other. What I also like about her is her classy clothing. I mean, it's a way of showing style, just like what my family does whenever we go outdoors.

Oh, how I wish I was not a shy person, especially towards girls. I just wanna know her more, ya' know? It was because of 13th November 2012 that I was really smiling (I rarely make real smiles.), and my heart was fluttering with joy... Thanks to her, and her alone. :3

Maybe after the Exams... If I could just let her know how I feel... I must let courage be inside of me... Till then, see you starside.

"There are many forms of showing her that she is the love of your life, such as kissing her forehead, hugging her from behind, and promising her that you two will grow old together."

Respect For The Commitment

Halo to all.

I just had a good, and meaningful casual talk with my mother (Thank you mom! :D). If you all wanna know, it's about marriage. I know you people think it's too early for me to pop this stuff out, but I just wanna understand what I needed to do in order to uphold it forever. :) Though, I disagree on the my mom's ideal age to tie the knot; She told me that I should be around 30 Years Old to get married. :O That's way 'over the limit' for me. To be honest, I'd say that it is best to make that happen when you are around 25 Years Old. I have a couple of reasons for that:
1) My generation is different from my parents' generation. This means that our perspectives of life is different from theirs. Compared to before, people nowadays started seriously dating early, because they understand love is the most important thing to keep living a good life (Even various Video Games do that :D), and it'd be a waste if you start it's journey later.
2) Accessibility to jobs are way easier nowadays. That is why you see many young people have stable jobs, which helps to aid them and their spouse financially.
3) The fact that we have Internet today, people could just look for any tips and advice to uphold a successful marriages online, whether though search engines, social network sites, or even media. My generation sure does learn as fast as a sky rocket. (Innuendos again Paolo. Damn... I must make more of these. XD)
4) This reason is for those who want to make a baby via making love to each other without contraceptives, obviously. :) Giving birth around that age is safer, as the risk of your baby to be diagnosed with diseases associated to abnormal characteristics & personalities (E.g. Down's Syndrome) will be lesser than those who are 30 Years Old or above.

With that being said, I promised myself to create a blog on talking more about romance, and here you have it. It's going to be related to this phrase: "Love has no boundaries."

I have seen many couples within my 25 metre radius (A Halo reference about the Motion Sensor detection distance) come and go. However, the ones I noticed more into particular are those multiracial couples (E.g. A Chinese and a Malay holding hands.).

The reason why I really respect this type of couples is because they actually proven to the world that race and religion does not matter when it comes to love. They are simply showing just 2 humans who are basically in love with each other. <3

In parallel to this, even many of my relatives coupled with someone outside Filipino blood since a long way back. One of my father's cousins married a Canadian, and they are currently living in Canada with their 2 Half-Canadian Half-Filipino kids, and one of my mother's cousins married a Vietnamese. Just to let you know, I am mostly of Filipino blood, with some Spanish and a little African-American within. Man, I feel unique! :D

Because of this, I believed in what the phrase said. The fact that nationalities don't matter, but appearances & personalities do. This was what made me chase after someone outside Filipino blood. :3

Whatever those multiracial couples are showing, they are damn well eradicating 'Racist' off the dictionary. ;) Gotta give my warm thanks to my mom for that mother-to-son casual talk a while ago. I'm lucky to have a mother who cares for me as much as I care for her. :D Exam is in 9 days, and I'm on to mindmapping what I had learnt in my Polytechnic for the past 17 weeks, now that the arrangement of my notes are finally organized. Till then, see you starside.

"Your marriage will last if you consistently sustain these 3 things: Financially (Money ensures survival, and that is buying a house, and paying it's bills.), Mentally (Be understanding to each other, and compromise if there is any problem to be resolved.), and Emotionally (When she is sad, you hold, and tell her that you are still there for her, no matter what.)."

Alas Poor Yorick

Halo to all.

So much has happened during this week, and I already can't wait to blurt all of them out today. I better get this over quick, as I still need to revise for the upcoming Semestral Exam. This is where the main impact plays in my grades.

First thing, and this will be something that pains me to write, so please bear with me. The girl I had been eyeballing on since November last year... Well... She was taken (No, I did not mean kidnapped. You, and your ideas of damsels in distresses). She was already going out with someone. I heard of this when I eavesdropped her classmates continuously teasing her about going out on a date with her boyfriend, as well as informing me (She and I have a common module), and some of her friends she would meet him that night. As we all parted ways, the moment I entered the bus to return home, that was when I picked my phone up, and whined out my sadness to my good friends in Whatsapp. I was really heartbroken. :( As an understanding person, I have no right to intrude her relationship with him, because that is just what a jerk does. But at least my relation with her did not end in bad terms. Compared to the previous 2, whereby the 1st just completely ignores me and the 2nd just won't be happily waving goodbyes at me anymore. I just wish I could apologize to them somehow, but you know my shy nature right? I just don't want to be of bad reputation and impression towards anyone. :'(

Moving to number 2, Nanyang Polytechnic has recently opened up Subway in the Center Canteen. YES! Now I can indulge myself with a beautifully crusted bun, topped in with any tasty meat, fresh salad, and flavoury sauce I desire it to be added with, especially if I am super hungry. :D

Thirdly, I have thoroughly finished my French role-play and online test, and all the projects I was supposed to work on with some of my classmates. It may somehow be tough work, but I made it through. For your info, some of the projects I did were a poster presentation on Phenotypic Classifications, a booklet on Calcium, and a Powerpoint presentation on Metabolic Disorders In Our Bodies. I hope what I did here can further boost up my Grade Point Average. ^_^

Lastly, I finally reached the Specialization Ranks in Halo 4. Better thank the Campaign Challenges for offering me a massive 40000XP to make that final push. So can't wait to try the Specializations out once I am back in War Games, and Spartan Ops this Late February/Early March! :) In addition, I had started initial designs for my next Forge Map, which is my second. My First was completed (My innudendo-isms think of this as my "First Time" with my lover. Damn horny I am. XD) many weeks ago, and it is ready to be uploaded to Halo 4's File Share (Thank you 343i, for finally fixing this. ^^) this March.

Since I realized she was already in a relationship with someone, it is time for me to hunt for "The One" again, as I vow not to give up on Romance. NEVAR!!! As one of Ellie Goulding's songs said, and one of Simon Cowell's comments on a performance in The X Factor, anything can happen. <3

Now I can get back to studying smart, and not studying hard. See what I did there? ;) Just showing that you should watch whatever words you say, because they can make a difference, a HUGE one. Anyway, I plan to talk more about Romance again the next week. Till then, see you starside.
