Overview
I just changed the spelling of my name from CHARMAINE to CHARMAIGNE.
I don't know, I must have enjoyed it with a G.
It will really look more classy, if it would have been like that.
Well, I thought of making it CHARMOEN (to look German).
I am a proud Filipino, yet I get to be a critique when it comes to names.
Since you'll stick with it forever why not change it into the way you like it, right?
I've always wanted to add Maria infront of it, to look old-Pinoy-fashioned, and because I am jealous that most of my friends got two first names unlike me who got a simple English name, Charmaine.
My last name is purely Filipino that is DIMACULANGAN. In the Philippines it means "enough" or more close to its articulation "not less".
I was always teased when I am in grade school, but then I learn that people mature and get on with their life without getting to find my last name funny.
I am turning sixteen on March, getting to know COLLEGE more, so I expect people to be mature than they are supposed to be.
CHARMAINE means a beautiful orchard. I am definitely not an orchard, so I'll agree with being beautiful. ;p
It also means "to sing", which is quite oppressive and pressure-giving since I don't got a voice the name CHARMAINE should be having. I just love to sing karaoke songs!
It also means "to be a rich and successful lady", that is, I just made it up. But I know it'll come true. ;p
All in all, I am enjoying my almost-sixteen years of existence, I don't want to finish it off with stupid things and beliefs.
I have always wanted to enjoy life, and that's what I'm doing.
I walk in the street certain of tripping myself with the pavement or just with my own foot, and I am proud of it.
I will see pretty girls walking with me in the same sidewalk, but I will not develop the stimulus called INSECURITY.
I will cherish my supercalifragilistic moments, and I will absolutely share it to people like you. :)

 The world will favor you today! That was the message of my horoscope. I don't believe in those superstitions actually. But for now maybe I will, because it was not some bad girl's luck, isn't it? Me winning two awards in the DSPC? I am grateful though. I was blessed enough to pay my sweats. (: So... To begin with a journey to the apex... *My dad shook my body to wake me up, since it's Friday. He was not paying attention to my agendas, I hate him. He didn't know that I am not going to school, and I will attend the awarding of the DSPC champions. I spoke as soft, but as clear as I can, to tell him that I'll be sleeping more. He bothered me, until he stopped. So, maybe he understood already what I'm talking about. I dozed off and went back into my dreamless sleeping, and then finally, a nerve twitched in me. I KNEW I WAS AWAKE.*Maybe I was awake after all, and I'm just hiding from the fact that today was not something to laugh about, if the wrong ends meet. I was not sure if I can gain something good. But I listened to what my zodiac sign said, and so I felt quite better. I don't know. I just trusted the stupid horoscope on www.dailyhoroscopes.com. (Anyway, you should visit that place. You might hesitate if you're sane or not.) I realized the hands of the clock, for human's sake, IT'S EIGHT-O-CLOCK IN THE MORNING. *No one told me what the call time is. All I know is that the awarding will take place in the afternoon. And that is what I'm attending. But since the tandem wants a full attendance, even if there is nothing to do, we are still ought to go there. For existing sake. BLAH. I went to take a shower, eat, have the normal life, until I thought of proceeding to the place. Someone texted me that everyone should be there already, because the two madams start to irritate the people who are already there! Lol. *I made deep breaths. I was really asking God to give me what I deserve. I then thought that the articles I had written were just normal types of writing. I mean no additional toppings. So, I hesitated that I had a slight chance of winning. But still, I kept on to my horoscope! The world favoring me, what's that supposed to mean? (: *When I arrived at the school, I realized I don't have money. What a dumb thing. How can I survive this hot day of pressure and nervousness with a 50-peso bill at hand? I thought the hardship. Nyahaha. I need to find someone who can lend me a bill. Good thing Rich Mitch was there, I was relieved. With the money I borrowed, I started finding food. I saw Karl eating spicy peanuts, San ka bumili niyan, gusto ko niyan?. And so I bought one! I even offered EMMAN. Nahihiya siya saken!! Pero hindi pa din niya ko matatanggihan! Hindi naman ako nangangain e! Hahaha. And then was I thirsty? I went to buy Scramble! That ice thing with the new purple color. Speaking of purple, was it that obvious that I love purple?? Even Karl was asking. Lol. And because of that, I treated him a scramble. Maybe I was just good today. I ate it with Val and her bloodclot, Koen with the history of his scars, and Karl with his sleepy face and silence. *Mikmik went with us, together with Angeles, also eating the purple thing. A small guy came, it was BRUCE! That pesky little kid of Mang Pio. He's still as irritating as ever!! And then came a kid, a boy with his bunch of friends. They played with the nakakairitang tunog na alambre?. I don't know, but it's a metal stuff used in 'Keep off the Grass' signs. He was playing with it until Val started an 'away'. By the way, he was just a Grade3 I think?
Val: Ang ingay.
Bata: Anung maingay, kayo na nga lang yung dumadalaw dito e!
*Aba tong batang ire. Sumasagot! Bute nga may dumadalaw pa sa iskwelahan nyo e. Lol. Pero sobrang kulit padin niya. Sinipa niya pa lalo yung maingay na bagay na yon. Aba, nananadya. Ako naman nanita.
Cha: Ano ba yan, ang ingay talaga!
*But I was looking away. Titignan ko lang kung tatamaan siya.
Bata: Aba. Akala mo naman SEXY ka!
*Nagulat ako! HAHAHA. Si mikmik nakarinig. Masyado ba talagang halata na sexy ako?? Hahaha. O nabasa niya lang yung nakasulat sa pin ko sa t-shirt, 'I'M BRINGING SEXY BACK. Tumingin pa din siya nang masama. Sinita ko padin siya ng sinita, hanggang sa lumayo siya. Naisipan namin ni Karl na pagtripan siya. Tinanggal na ni Karl yung sign na yon at tinapon. Thinking na hindi naman yon amin, lakas ng apog magtapon e no! Nang bigla siyang BUMALIK!
Bata: Hala. Nasaan na yon??
*HAHAHA. Tawa lang kami ng tawa. Akala niya siya lang a! Maitapon nga. Haha. Ang nakakatawa pa don, hinanap niya pati nung barkada niyang bata palang muka nang mga barumbado dun sa taas ng puno! Lol.
Eto namang si Mikko, nakakita ng BULATE sa lupa! Edi Ewwwww kami. Hanggang sa naisipan niyang tusukin ng stick yung bulate. Nakita ngayon nitong si Bata.
Bata: Ay! ahastiti!
*Kami naman ay WAHTTTTDAHECKK!!!! Haha. Haha. Haha. Anong tinawag mo dun sa bulate??? Grabe. Tawa kami ng tawa! Masagwa! Itong mga batang ito! Dumating pa yung ibang mga bata.
Ibang bata: Ahastiti! Ay ahastiti! Yung ahastiti! Ahastiti o!
*Anlupet talaga!!! Paulit-ulit pa nilang sinabi! Hahahaha.
Mikko: Hatiin nyo nga siya!
*Aba! Hinati nga nila. Pilit hinati, habang tuloy pa din sa bansag na 'ahastiti' dun sa bulate! Lol. Lol. Hanggang sa may isang batang gangster. Pinutol na niya ang buhay ni ahastiti.
Mikko: Bakit 'ahastiti' tawag niyo?
Gangster na Bata: Kasi po, hugis titi.
*EWWWW! Ganun ba talaga dun? Mga batang bata oo. Pati yata babae inimpluwensiyahan. Hahaha.
Hanggang sa lumayo kami. May nakita naman kaming bata na naglalaro ng 'uwang'. Oo, beetle daw yon! Hindi naman siya mukhang nakakatakot! Grabe tong eskwelahan nila a. Mukhang perya na forest. Mga walang-kamatayang tawanan, baho, at kakaibang nilalang. Tapos, lumapit yung batang kanina pa nag-iingay. May dala siyang ballpen.
Bata: Ate!.... Ay mamaya na lang pala. Di ko alam sasabihin ko.
*May gusto ata siyang sabihin sakin, pero di ko alam kung ano. Hinayaan ko na lang. Tapos bumalik, may dala na siyang papel.
Bata: Ate, sorry nga pala dun sa kanina. Pwedeng kunin yung number mo?
*Aba'y tarantadong bata! Haahaha. Pero natutuwa talaga ako sakanya! Angcute kasi niya kahit na ganun siya kakulit. At isa pa, yung sorry pa niyang sinabe, akala mo binatilyo na. Nakakatuwa. (:
*I saw familiar faces enter the gate! It's puchi-puchi and the rest of the gang! Alvin, Joan and Omar were there. I was excited! Yehey. I forgot all of the commotions that might happen later in the heat of the DSPC. We we're waiting for the sportswriters to finish, and then we'll eat lunch at KFC. At last, they were done. We rode four or five tricycles to Rotonda and walked to the lunchplace. Most of us ordered a snackbox with an extra rice! And the fun never stopped. We sticked ten tables together so that we can eat together, all the journalists that were available in that specific moment! We were 23 and yes we are many for the place. We had a happy eating! YUM. *The sun was directly on top of our heads when we went out of the place. We thought of going to M1 despite the rays' optimistic rising! When we were there, we realized it was a hopeless place. Nothing nice in particular. It was definitely boring. How I hate the stuffs in there. We were in the third floor, the girl's stuffs, when Tere and Pau went into the counter. Tere said she has to pay these sunglasses because she broke it. Too bad for her! Nahulog lang naman e! The place sucked to the megamillionth time because of that. *We went out of the stupid mart, and then rode a jeepney to OCNHS. We will walk the way to Tapinac. It was stupendously hot! As in, totally. But we entered the gates of the school fine, and not broken, so maybe the heart-wrecking part is close enough... It was radiobroadcasting time. We weren't able to join because of some reasons, but Mam said it's okay daw. There were just three candidates anyway. At last, it was finished. When Sir Lansang approached the stage, oh my gassssh, my heart started to beat faster than ever!!! It was sickly. It was like Bella turning into a vampire. But obviously, it was not a burning sensation or something. It was really the results that keep me breathing and breathing hard enough. *The moment of truth is right now. Everyone screamed in their seats. Sir started to announce every category and winner. I won 5th place in editorial, and the shocking part, I won the 1st place in feature writing!! IMAGINE THAT! Yesterday, I wasn't able to eat despite the two succeeding contests, and now, I made it into the two fields,,,, I FELT SO HAPPY! I WAS IN CLOUD NINE! I WAS IN THE CHAMPION'S CLUB. (: I considered three inspirations: 1. JACOB BLACK2. STEPHENIE MEYER3. EMMAN!I am happy I almost jumped, cried, and flew!! If I just can. It was bare happiness hugging me in my sweaty pe shirt! *The other winners were then announced and we all screamed for RSHS. A lot of us won and I'll depict to you in the TERIBLE multiply account the exact winners. Maybe not me, but someone else might post it! (: The overall winner came next, and for goodness sake, everyone jumped and rejoiced from their seats! RS REMAINED IN ITS THRONE, IT'S TENTH YEAR AS THE CHAMPION! We just realized, it was already a prophecy of the gods. No one and nothing will change it. (: The picture taking is always there! With our hands making '10' signs. Holy happy day! THE WORLD FAVORED ME AT LAST. *Mam said that we will eat at Mcdonalds! Yehey! It's a treat! EJ, Phil, Omar, Cess, Karren, JN, Mariah and others who are not journalists are even there. It was a happy celebration! For ten years, we have succeeded! (: We ate burger + fries + coke + the clenching water. Nyaha. It's time for us to go. Maybe go instantly to GSTAR as what has always been! (: They played DOTA and we watched. *We played with Karen's camera with the shutter and imitated funny faces! Phil was crazy inside the CR. And his short shorts was really amusing. Karren's laugh turned us laughing hyenas also. We laughed and laughed and laughed till we can laugh no more! And then I went home with the two Karens/Karrens. (: Indeed, it was a happy ending! Due to my belief of my loco horoscope, I raised my faith higher than my wisdom. I learned to believe that I can really do something. I have proven myself. We have proven our batch! WE ARE TERIBLE. (: Anyway, I texted my dad and mom of my achievement and they were so happy for me! They were proud and told me we will have a celebration! (: And so this was what my horoscope is talking about (for the day of Saturday). We'll be having a family affair! I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT. And as usual, I will update you! (: PAHABOL: IMAGINE!!! 5 PM AKO UMUPO DITO, MAGE-8 AKO NATAPOS! IT WAS A LONG POST.Labels: crazy, food, happy, horoscope, journalism, laugh, life, winning
