theatlantic: The End of Adorkable: New Girl Grows Up A funny thing has happened on New Girl. Somewhere along the way, the show that started as a potentially irritating ode to star Zooey Deschanel’s signature quirkiness became one of the more enjoyable hangs on television. As its freshman season wraps up this week, it’s also evolved into a sneakily clever take on young adulthood. Deschanel was already a polarizing figure when New Girl launched last fall—your tolerance for both her and her character, Jess, likely hinges on how much you relate to the need to curl up in a ball and watch Dirty Dancing on a loop post break-up. Or whether you are the kind of person who might own adult-sized footie pajamas. Early on in the season, Jess was a disappointingly one-note character, all cutesy eccentricity and little substance. In one episode she insisted on wearing fake hillbilly teeth to a wedding, and and in another she became so uncomfortable after accidentally seeing one of her three male roommates naked that she couldn’t bring herself to say the word “penis.” When she first moved in after discovering that her live-in boyfriend was having an affair, her roommates were understandably bewildered by this strange, doe-eyed creature who seemed capable of little more than weeping and bursting spontaneously into song. But as the season progressed, the writing became both warmer and sharper, focusing more on the talented ensemble cast and tempering Jess’s excessive awkwardness with a much-needed dose of self-awareness. In one episode, she goes head-to-head with Julia, a tough-girl lawyer who dismissively refers to Jess’s kittens-and-rainbows outlook as her “whole thing.” In response, Jess proclaims: “I brake for birds. I rock a lot of polka dots. I have touched glitter in the last 24 hours…and that doesn’t mean I’m not smart and tough and strong!” While this may not have won over all the skeptics, it was a smart choice to make Jess’s foil a worthy opponent. Without dismissing the criticisms of both Deschanel and the character, it allowed Jess to show a tougher side to her personality and to make a case for her unique brand of femininity. Read more.

MOVING ON…

Hello there HEART.
Kamusta ka na?
I know that you’re still in love with him.

I know that whenever you see him, nothing but BITTERNESS and MEMORIES are all you remember.

But don’t lose hope, heart.

God has a reason why everything’s happening right now.

Heart, tanggapin mo na. Kelly, tanggapin mo na.

SAGOT KO SAYO: OO, MALAPIT NA. PANGAKO. </3

1) Danielle Quigao - She’s my girlfriend. We’ve known each other for four years. We’ve gone through a lot. When I say a lot, I mean a bunch of good and bad memories. We both hate happy endings, like photography, and the rest… let’s just say we’re complete opposites, but we…

DB Sessionistas.

The greatest people I met during high school. And yet as we depart, I want to preserve these pictures here at my blog forever.

Racquel Helena Abagat, Alexa Faye Flores, Arianne Loi Pucan, Megan Reyes and Mareah Kristelle Pascual, I love you guys. :”>

Somehow, I tried not to think of YOU.

HELLO PIDC 2012!



Yes, I actually competed last April 9-14 at UP Diliman for PIDC. Well, debate.

I competed because I really want to, PLUS, I need to recover… from pain, from heartache, from you.

Well, this actually helped me. This made me forget you in awhile. This made me realize that HEY DUDE, I CAN LIVE WITHOUT YOU.

I met new friends. And HELLO, admirers? HAHA. Joke. Well, it’s true. People keep on teasing me nga eh. Anyway…

So ayun. Buti nalang nagPIDC ako. Buti nalang I was there to learn, improve and to forget you. PERO KULANG PA RIN. :(

I still love you. I really can’t fully move on. BAKIT GANUN?

Before I leave nung April 8, diba I went to church pa for vesper. You were there, tumugtog ka. I was really hesitant where to sit. Kasi usually I sit near the PNW. Kaso nga you were there and wala pang nakaupo dun, so parang nahiya ako. Kaya sa center nalang ako umupo. While singing, DUDE NAPAPATINGIN AKO SAYO. Pinipigilan kong umiyak kasi I dont want you to see me weak. Kasi gusto kong maging strong sa mga mata mo. Gusto kong maipamukha sayo na KAYA KO. The service ended. I was really about to talk to Kuya Annes kasi may sasabihin daw siya about sayo. Pero I texted him na I was rushing kasi luluwas ako. So when I left, I cried. I was walking na umiiyak that time. I was crying because I feel so stupid. That I SHOULD HAVE NOT DONE the things I did wrong. I should’ve been matured enough. I should have understood you agad. Pero these dont mean I regret loving you. I just feel so sad about myself. Feeling ko kasi tama ka na it’s always been ME. :( I feel so down. Pero I cant do anything about it anymore. You’re really mad at me. And you dont want to talk to me anymore. But I’m still hoping that one day, we’ll be friends again. SHET, GAANO PA KATAGAL YUN?

SOMEHOW, I TRIED NOT TO THINK OF YOU.

It worked. But it suddenly came back. And I dont know what to do right now.

I miss you AK. SO MUCH. :(

Let’s just be friends. Magbati na tayo. 

Well, sana before or sa birthday ko, OKAY NA TAYO. :)

Kahit hindi tayo, at least friends tayo.

Pero mas okay kung TAYO ulit. Hihi. :D

Kelangan ko na magMOVE ON. :(

Tapos I was cold, pinahiraman niya ako ng jacket

Tapos sobrang sakit rin nung throat ko that time, tapos ewan ko, parang may ‘care’ pa rin siya.

Tapos I asked him if he’s still mad, hindi na daw.

So parang HELLO PEACE!

Minassage niya pa ung head ko.
