To London we go! (Spewing out random thoughts)
¤ Mom and Sak (I'd rather call you this XD) are leaving on April 1st. Dad and I are leaving on April 2nd. Why the 'division'? I don't know. I don't get it either. I'm not complaining though, 'cause I'll be settled on a Business Class seat. Nice and spacious! :) Thanks to my parents' covered airflight miles. Yeah. ^_^
¤ I'll be using my school backpack as my handcarry and my going-around bag. Unfortunately, I hadn't cleaned it out yet. Fortunately, I've got a few more days to do it. Hopefully, no invertebrates and reptiles have decided to inhabit it... yet. :)
¤ We'll be staying at a hotel a few blocks away from Aya's university. I hope there's a park somewhere near. And an internet cafe, or something, in case my dad's laptop is unavailable. ^_^
¤ I'll be seeing my other older sister, Aya! After- I'm not sure... since she came home for Christmas and to Japan for New Year- two and a half months? But it's not that I missed her, and not that I hadn't seen her either. XD We exchange lots of emails and see each other on webcam on a weekly basis. And Jin too. XD
¤ Which reminds me. Kirstyn was asking me the other day why I don't call my older siblings ate and kuya. I do! I even call them onee-chan and onii-chan. Sometimes lang, though. Oftentimes, it really is just Jin, Aya and Sak for me. ^^
¤ Sak says she plans on putting on British accent. I don't know for how long. I don't know if she can too. Bloody hell, Sakura. XP
¤ I heard my parents are going off to meet a couple of people while we're there. I wonder where and who exactly though. I hope they don't leave Sak and me by ourselves or something. I'll die. XD
¤ I must not forget! Mike, Eric, Louie and Alex want action figures. Hell, yeah. That's not the place to get them, dudes! But I'll try. XD
¤ Will be back in Manila after twenty days or so. I'm just guessing, I haven't asked. Hehe... g'bye. ^_^

I just learned today that my sister's nickname is Sara. As in Sakura, minus the KU. The pronunciation is similar with Sarah (but since my sister is slang-ish, it comes out as Sera). Hmm. That's why Vince calls her Sara. That's why mom calls her Sara (sometimes). That's why I see Sara instead of Sakura in her Starbucks cup (sometimes). That's why people ask for Sara on the phone.
*phone rings*
Me: Good morning. Hello?
Crystal: Hello? Ken?
Me: Yeah, it's me.
Crystal: It's Crystal. Is Sara there?
Me: Hi Crystal. Sara?
Crystal: Yah, Sara. Is she there?
Me: Who's Sara?
Crystal: Your sister. Sara. Sakura.
Me: Oh... Sara. Let me get her.
Ang bagal ko talaga. Since when did you become Sara, Sak?
(Happy birthday Shig! :D)

Just as my buddies have, I've made my choices too. :)
For the Philippines, I'll go for DLSU, AdMU and UP. As for foreign universities, I'm going for US and Japan. :)
I dream too much and aim too high, I know... but it just can't be helped. ^_^ Good luck to me. :) I hope I get in at least one of the universities I picked. :)
Oh, and for additional factoids, those three countries (Philippines, US and Japan) represent three parts of my ethnicity. The last part is China... but I don't see myself studying there. XD
(If you don't want to be confused, you need not read the following part. All are at rough estimates!) You see, my dad, having a Chinese-Filipina mother and a Japanese father, is one fourth Filipino, one fourth Chinese and half-Japanese. My mom, having an American mother and a Japanese father, is half-American and half-Japanese. So my siblings and I are a mix. We are half-Japanese, one-fourth American, one-eighth Filipino and one-eighth Chinese. You have to agree though, that we don't look like we are it. XD Sorry for confusing you... I've warned you. XD

Someone just told me I look like the drummer of an OPM band. Yung dating band ni Kitchie Nadal. Hehe... iba lang daw color ng eyes at hair ko.
Darn, I look like so much people/characters. It's getting freaky.

Vacation naaaaahhhhh!!! ^_^
As of 11:00AM of March 17, third year had ended.
It's been fun. The road was kind of rocky, but it's still one of the best I've passed through. Thanks to all who made the journey memorable: the big man up there, my classmates, (some of) my batchmates, my bandmates, my barkadas, even my teachers, and of course, those I failed to mention. :)
Hahaha... senti! XD But honestly, lots of little incidents have happened during the course of the year...
(one) Muntik na kong mahuli at malagay sa conduct deportment dahil sa pagdala ng cellphone. XD Buti nalang magaling mag-catch si Lee. Magaling din magtago. The incident just happened recently. Hahaha... the full story, it's in my DJ. XD
(two) Muntik nang mapaaway yung Fyr sa mga... second years, was that? Or first? I'm not sure. They were trying to trip us for so much times! Ang obvious! Anyway, since we were civilized beings (as if XD), we spoke to them *ehem-andthreatenedthem-ehem*, and (thankfully) they complied.
(three) The prom dilemma, and the prom itself! The fairs, and school activities (Cue; tiedye; Noli; Si Sir, Si Ma'm; etc) Hehe... I don't remember if I posted about them here.
(four) Soirees, interactions and parties. Birthday party of Sak and me. 16&counting? Hehe... who can forget those? Huh, drunk people? Haha, nuff said. XD
(five) Nice grades. Haha... XD Pero takot parin ako pag report card day. XD
(six) Band gigs. Synkinesis... exposure, at last! XD Bandmates, mahal ko kayo! Hahaha! XD I didn't only play drums for my band; I acted as a substitute percussionist for a number of other bands. Some of those bands were my batchmates'; some of those bands, I never even knew existed. Hehe, got mucho dinero from those stints. *kaching* $_$
(seven) Friday escapades to the nearby malls. XD Timezone sa Greenhills. Skybowl sa Galleria. Quantum sa Rockwell. Starbucks sa Shang. With Fyr and Cyn. Maraming nangyayari. XD
A lot more things have happened, but these are what I can remember right now. I'll miss third year! (Check my DJ if you want to read a longer version of this. XD)
& let's not forget! Congratulations to all the graduates of SY '04-'05! :) Kyle, best friend, college ka naaaah! XD
