New "word of the day": EPIC X

I spent my Saturday night hanging with two of my close high school friends and having a few drinks with them. During the course of our discussion which revolve around the usual topic of boys, relationships, feelings, and...well you basically get the gist, my friend brought up this term that I'm sure everyone can relate to: the Epic X

So what is an "Epic X"?

epic |'ep - ik| x |'eks|
1. That one boy or girl that you somehow cannot get over with because of any of the following reasons:
  • You were the dumpee and not the dumper
  • You were the one being left this time and you just cannot understand why
  • That one person that you never got to be with or returned the same feelings
  • He or she was your first love (This one is optional)
2. That one boy or girl that still has a tremendous effect on you regardless of how long it has been
3. The person that has the power to make you drop everything (and by that it literally means everything) whenever he or she asks a request from you. For example: Her boyfriend cannot bring her home and you gladly offer; She asks you to "give it another shot", however you are already seeing someone but in a heartbeat you gladly accept it.

Looking at its definition, I'm sure most of us would rather be the Epic X than have an Epic X

edit: Check out my friend's entry regarding the Epic X. She has one long list that I'm sure you will find yourself agreeing with.

Go grab the latest issue of Status Magazine

and watch out for my friend Joe and his photos when he covered a Volcom event last month. He literally owns a section of a page with his photos.

I should have gone to its release party last Monday. Damn it.

Go Joe! Work for Status after your internship and then recommend me.

Although we've been experiencing the summer season for about a month already, summer vacation in my case just started last Thursday.

Last week when I was trying to make myself start working with one of my final requirements, I couldn't help but start working on my to-do-list for this summer. Here is what I have came up so far that I hope accomplish to during my last summer vacation ever before entering the "real world"
1. Boracay trip with my classmates
2. Clean room after course card
3. Start an ebay account a.k.a. start finding ways to earn money
4. Start a sulit account to sell some of the furniture in the house that my mom has been dying to do
5. The Yearly Series Catch-Up (HIMYM and TBBT, you two are the top of my list)
6. Watch tons of movies (e.g. Inglorious Bastards, Paris, je'taime)
7. Summer Photoshoot with Mj of Future Foes and Street Manila
8. Finally start redecorating my room and try the Shabby Chic look
9. Discover Bangkal with Steph
and lastly...let's save the best for last for...
10. Heartwarming and memorable bonding moments with my College and High School friends.

As cheesy as it sounds, hopefully that summer to remember saying will be feasible this time. Well it better be since it is going to be my last.


p.s. Just like what Mj said, I've got nothing but love for Nothing But Water. Thank you so much!

Rhiannon is the story of a lady that is from another world ~ called the Bright world ~ and she leaves her kingdom to become the wife of a king ~ a mortal king ~ but goddesses really can't marry mortal kings, if they do they lose their powers ~ their magic powers. And they don't lose the knowledge of them they just ~they know everything that's going to happen they just can'tdo anything about it. Which is a much more difficult way to live than not having magic powers is to not be able to use them and know exactly what's coming and to not be able to tell anybody. So she comes down and does her whole trip, and it's just a whole story ~ it's a wonderful story.
(Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac)

Two days ago my iPod was acting all up on me when I was trying to charge it. I immediately concluded that my iPod just died because it wasn't turning on at all even though it was already plugged in. I started restarting it as suggested by those tutorials in youtube and search results from google but still nothing happened. My sister told me that I better bring it to Greenhills and have it fixed because it looks like the battery needs to be replaced. I was really bummed that night because that iPod has been with me for four years and I take pride that compared to others, I haven't experienced any glitches with it. I even told my friend that it was the only "relationship" that I was ever serious with during my whining session.

Today I brought my iPod to Greenhills for it to be fixed immediately because it has to be back in normal mode in time for my Boracay trip by the end of this month. My friend Leanne together with her classmate Carl accompanied me because they have some errands as well to do in the area. First we went to digital hub for its consultation to see what needs to be repaired. It felt like waiting for a patient for its diagnosis because we were waiting for like 20 mins or so. The person in charge then told us to have it repaired in this store inside Theatre Mall because there might be something wrong with the motherboard. Upon arriving in that store, my iPod then suddenly turned the moment the repair guy plugged it to the connector. It was then concluded that there was nothing wrong with the battery or motherboard but the click wheel has to be replaced because the center button is not already functioning. I decided to have it replace and it cost me 700 pesos. My iPod is now back to normal and note to self to always charge it even before the battery drains because I've been a bad girlfriend for I have been neglecting it for the past couple of weeks.

While roaming around Greenhills I stumbled into the display window of Bayo and saw this new collection of pastels, ruffles, and romantic pieces that really caught my attention. I've never been a fan of Bayo but this collection is now making me want to go there right now and try them on.

Filled with touches of lace, ruffles, and eyelet details, this collection brings back that feminine and romantic vibe after seeing masculine and androgynous inspired pieces dominating the runways for the past seasons. Perfect for the summer season, these pastel colored pieces will surely be a must have in every girl's wardrobe.

You know that one person wherein you can just rant and bitch all you want and that person will not judge you but will gladly join in your bitching and ranting. Well that person for me is Ms. Trisha Bautista and I realized that I need to catch up with this lady soon because I have some ranting to do. And I’m sure she has some as well.
