Hello I’m going crazy over here! AHHHHH I’m so bored! Been watching Make it or Break it & Glee the whole day and it won’t suffice! I’m not good with being bored anymore, I itch for work and productivity! Save me from my sellllf!!
So a few weeks ago, I auditioned and GOT ACCEPTED to Dulaang UP, the official theater group of the University of the Philippines! As incoming Theater Arts students, they required us to attend a month-long workshop that basically gave us an over-view of the course!
It felt so legit, felt the college vibes and everything! They gave us schedules and we had to attend classes! We had the wildest, craziest and most interesting sessions! We had the basic Acting, Voice and Movement classes. But what truly amazed me were the lectures (Theater History),props making, costume designing/styling, mask making, stage lighting and production design! I’ve been involved in student-theater for the longest time, but this is the first time I got proper lectures regarding back stage and production work!
For the past 2 weeks, we’ve been rehearsing for UPstage 2012! Our showcase or sort-of culminating activity! Its going to be my first production with Dulaang UP and I got casted as “BABAE 1” I swear, the role is more interesting than it sounds! Its going to be my first, also likely to be my last performance, since I’m going to major in Technical-Theater, rather than in performing.
I’m just so thankful that I decided to go for this course and to attend this workshop, because it rekindled the love that I lost for theater. But most of all,it reminded me of why I even joined theater in the first place..and now, I can’t believe I almost gave it up.

The more people come into my life, the more I miss you.
I’m supposed to forget about everything.
I’m supposed to be moving on.
I’m supposed to be happy.
I’m supposed to feel miserable for you.
But apparently, that’s not the case. The more people come, the more people try, the more people force my guard down, the more I’m drawn to you.
C.R.A.Z.Y its been years, I don’t deserve this HAHAHAHA SERIOUSLY I’M TORTURING MY SELF. haymeezher
Worry decided to pay me a visit. I’m worried for college, I’m worried about money, but most of all I’m worried about the people I might lose in the process. I’m going crazy I don’t know what to do! SOS
Hello wonderful people of the world, please take a moment to notice this lost child :(
So I woke up late, like 5 minutes before my dad leaves for work-late, took a bath and everything THEN MY DAD LEFT ME! Now I have no ways to go to UP.Okay I’m irresponsible like that. That’s all.
Don’t know how else to describe the past 4 weeks but WILD! I went though a roller coaster ride and everything is just happening too fast, too crazy, too wild!
I say that it all started 4 weeks ago because last March 25, I graduated HIGH SCHOOL! Imagine, 4 years of hard work, joys and tears, summed up in one ceremony!
I got 3 medals that I’m extremely proud of and happy about! GOLD Loyalty award, for my 14 year stay in SPCP, GOLD for outstanding participation in Sports competitions (that I got from Track & Field) and a GOLD excellence award in Theater Arts, which came in handy since now I am off to Dulaang UP! :)
Soon after graduation, a couple of my friends celebrated their debuts! SO CRAZY! 3 debuts (two sleep overs) in a week! I’m sorry if I’m quite amazed by this record, I’m not much of a party girl. lol
Monday the week after, me and my family flew to Puerto Princesa! Such a beautiful place! White sand & clear waters, an ideal vacation for everyone! It’s more fun in the Philippines!
Then just a few days after arriving in Manila, I AMAZINGLY convinced my parents to allow me to attend the Batch Boracay trip! It was such a spontanous trip even though we’ve been planning it for months! That’s why I’d like to call this trip: my most spontaneous-planned trip! My goodness, it was such a bliss! I loved everything about this trip and I would give anything just to have it all back!
Did I mention that I got a plane ticket to Boracay on the DAY IT SELF and cost my mother 4 thousand pesos just so I’d get there by 11th? WILD indeed!
After all these, I now believe that a month REALLY is a long time, so much can happen, as long as you make them happen, and that nothing is impossible, may your dead line be in less than 24 hours, not being allowed by parents-booking a ticket-flying to boracay-partying all night with my friends? All happened in less than a day. This proves us that anything can happen under the sun (or moon?) AND you only live once ;)
I’m sorry for dumping all of these in one post, but I just want to update my blog on all these wonderful blessings lately. Indeed, God is good! Have a WONDERFUL SUMMER, everyone! :D
Mostly because I’m glad that its ending at the same time we’re graduating. One Tree Hill played a big part in my puberty-post puberty-now, probably the reason why my life is so dramatic HAHAHAHAHA
But seriously, I’ve been Brooke, for so many circumstances, sometimes I’m the Peyton.. but I’m never the Hayley, that’s for sure. I found my Lucas to my Brooke, my Lucas to my Hayley, the best friend. I found my Mouth, and still someday, hopefully my Julian.
I stopped watching OTH after season 4. Its because.. I don’t know the feeling’s unexplainable, I couldn’t handle seeing them all grown up. Nope, I don’t want to grow up my self that’s why I could never bring my self to watch it. Maybe someday I will, soon.
But for now, thank you One Tree Hill for honing me to the girl that I am today. Thank you for all the lessons I’ve learned though you.
If this is not the face of happiness, then I don’t know what else is. :)
