Weeks Before Hell

I've been around for months here in blogger. Few more weeks, classes will be in to boot!  If I'm not mistaken, June 15, 2011 is the start of classes in our university. That's what I red on streamers and tarps on roads.

Uncle Kracker - Follow me

This song, I'm looking for ever since. I was searching for a song that'll touch my heart and fly like I'm in Cloud 9. I think this is my FAVORITE song forever! Thanks to SHOWTIME nung may nag-perform kanina na dalawang binata. HAHA, kahit hindi naman ganun kaganda pinag-perform, I know kasi na ito na yung matagal kong hinahanap na kanta. =)

UPUAN by GLOC-9 feat. Jeazell Grutas (OFFICIAL MV)

Bagay talaga itong ipatugtuog ngayon. Sana maging soundtrack ito sa mababang kapulungan, pati na rin sa higher court. Hanggang ngayon hindi pa rin natatapos ang debate tungkol sa RH Bill na yan. Hayy...ang dami pang problema sa bansa na mas kailangang pagtuunan ng pansin!

Lovely, Red, Chocolate Ribbon Bones

Beak! I am surprised and I don't think he hates surprises. When I was about to sleep because of headache, it was 4:30PM  probably, my aunt was calling me outside. Tantrums blistered my patience that's why I go out without a second grip. That was then I saw him on our chorio mirror and so I was like a young girl hiding on the kitchen from a ghastly creature.

"Where's your manners, Sam?" I gasped. 'Till I found myself, facing him with my aunt and my cousin. He was holding a red box, (it was a chocolate cake from Red Ribbon ) and a book (Lovely Bones) which I am haply excited to read.

After a few minutes, he left because I let him to. LOL
I don't want to see my parents to see him here in our house. He's barely a friend though.

"NOTHING more."

Still, I thanked him for giving me that "promised book" which was very collateral to me if I will accept it or not. The thought of giving despite our long-lost conversations in person made me a bit grateful. And thanks for the cake! =)

Interview ll Robert Pattinson & Kristen Stewart

Funny interview! HAHA. This is one of my favorites. "Aww!" gasped Kristen.

Interview with Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Cam Gigandet, Edi Gath...

I totally remembered what Catherine said. She wants to let the viewers see the movie's perspective as what is on the book. =)

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart- Tell Her

So as far as what I have watched, this is my favorite one! I mean, the clips were organized and the audio was perfectly synced with everything. As to here, you can absolutely see Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart's care and love for each other. (cozy)

Robert Pattinson - Lose Control.wmv

Rob makes me wanna lose control! Arrgh.

A dream... Happy 25th Birthday, Honey!

So here. I was supposed to blog about this yesterday but chances didn't let me to. Dashboard was subjected to maintenance, I think...

Why not love me still?

Actually, I am that submissive when it comes to my obsession and addiction with my everlasting love, ROBERT THOMAS PATTINSON.

A night before his birthday, REM sleep motivated me to be more eloquent in expressing my desire to see him even just in a DREAM. (That would suffice me though...) He was wearing a red tuxedo, clean-cut hair just like what he has now; the same smile that was stuck on my head for years since I first saw him. Aww. I so love him and I miss him! =(

His golden eyes.

When you're gonna ask me if what's on my dream that moment, I gotta say that there's no more than usual. What I'm wishing for is that, when I dream of him, I'm no longer a fan of him or an ordinary individual longing for his attention and love. (And I dreamed of that months ago... I'm beside Rob and KStew was jealous about me. LMAO XD ) But still, about that dream? He-he. I am a busybody looking for him, taking pics. with him and talking to him in a fan-like manner, but I'm trying to be under the sun for him to feel at ease with me. I used to be a bluffly young lady, blabbering my achievements to him on that place. Err hey, did I tell you already that the venue was on my Alma Mater ( BAYBAY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.) 

When I caught myself, do I have to stop myself? 

Eventually, since I have the chance to be with him that moment, I let my folks to take pictures of ours. ROB + ME. Relinquish the moment, Sam! LOL. Aww. How I wish dreams would turn to adventure! I badly am wishing to see Rob in person...

Rob a.k.a "EDWARD" and I, lucky in LOVE.

So after that nostalgic dream, or I should reconsider that as an extension of my ego, (and it just that proves that even after a long time, Rob still exists not only in my HEART, but also in my MIND. I owe a lot to my amygdala.) I woke up with a smile on my cranky face.

"Thank you, Lord, for giving me another day to live by. Thank you for this day, for bringing Rob into my life. I love him, Lord!"

My Different Kind of Photographs

Photography perplexes YOU. It is one way of capturing parts of hedges around you by simply using senses as the main medium. Added to that, it doesn't depend on what or how expensive your camera is... the most important thing is that you capture by HEART. 

YOU + HEART = BRILLIANT PHOTOGRAPHY.

What you will be seeing is a different kind of photography...Subjects are unusual and unfixed. The differences are, most photographs portray the perfect scales of our environment like the forest landscapes in Forks, Washington...seascapes in Boracay, etc. But now, why not take a glance into some uncommon subjects here in our planet? They can even be the BEST subjects to boot! 

Honestly, I took this photo using my Vodafone 803T so it's not that clear as what you see on digital cameras like DSLR. I don't know how many megapixels it does have. But well, I hope you appreciate it! 

Photographer: Samantha Crisostomo De Guzman

Captioner: Samantha Crisostomo De Guzman

Date Taken: May 3, 2011

Time: Around 5PM

Place: San Isidro Norte, Binmaley Pangasinan, Philippines

What's au fait in this welcoming photograph? It lets you dig into an unchained realm. These two footwear impart usual deeds of man in this changing world but are still useful no matter what.

"Hour to Twilight." See the paramount light that is nearly turning into a dark hue of Twilight. The true color of nature is speeding...

Gray Matters. The neutrality of the colors gives you the perception of both old and modern times. Splashed pinch of green colors from a plant maintains the hue.

Dead subject deserve a glee focusing on the main subjects. And this kind of woods and cement modify the focal strength of the image since hollow-blocks are on it.

Subject in motion. Most photographs don't give peculiar hint to where the subject is heading to. But this photo has a lot to compromise...

Landscape of an institution (Binmaley School of Fisheries). This photograph conquered the reality of TIME - no matter how exhausting the day is, it still has to end.

The Winning Entry

I'm still overwhelmed about my winning post! Congratulations to me! It's really, really, really, really sad to think that I cannot claim my prize, or I should say, me and my mom's prize in Gateway, Araneta Center. The title of the contest is MY MOMMY: THE NEW BINIBINI. 



Here's the Mechanics of the contest:

"Upload a photo of you with your mom and share what you love most about her in a maximum of 3 sentences.

We know words aren't quite enough to express just how much you truly love her, so better let your heart out!

The four most awwww-some entries will get to join our My Mommy: The New Binibini Contest at Gateway Mall on May 4 (9am – 12nn), where the FB participant gets to assist her/his mom in an exciting makeover challenge, together with one of our reigning Bb. Pilipinas beauty queens as mommy’s stylist! All four teams will have limited time to complete two looks for mom, followed by hair & makeup and a photo shoot. We’ll then display the photos of the four moms in their new looks on May 8, where the public gets to vote for the mom with the best makeover. The winning mom gets a special prize from the Araneta Center. Deadline for all entries is on May 3 at 3pm, so better hurry and start posting! ;)" 


You and your moms, together with Shamcey, Isabella, Janine and MJ of Bb. Pilipinas (Official) will take part in our "My Mommy: The New Binibini" makeover challenge! See you at 9am tomorrow! ;)

And THANK YOU to everyone who joined this contest, advanced Happy Mother's Day to your beautiful and wonderful moms ♥


(Whoa... I've never even think that I posted the entry nearly on the deadline period! And come to think of it, man! I won!  This must be God's plan... I just got this info to my friend, Adellerose, so I decided to join. Besides, wala namang mawawala. This must be God's plan...)

I was about to open my laptop when my phone rang...it's my father who held the phone so he answered it at first. Curiosity lingers in my mind. On the second call, I was the one who answered it. The woman is asking for me. Because of my anxiety that it was the contractor of a certain Telecommunication company (and I'm applying for a postpaid plan to get a new phone but I still have no time to submit the needed requirements and so bad, I don't have a penny for the downpayment) I ended the call. But then... I suddenly remembered. This might be about the ARANETA CENTER contest that I joined awhile ago. Another wake-up call to reality, the phone rang for the third time. And I answered it with a bliss of shyness and a pinch of excitement! "Hello Miss Samantha...Hello?" And I was like, "Hello po. Pasensya na kung namatay kanina..." She laughed. "Okay lang. Ito po yung sa Araneta Center. Nanalo po yung post niyo!" 

OHhhhhhhhh my GOSH! I can't believe it!

The woman is asking me and my mom to go to Gateway, Araneta Center in Manila to claim the makeover prize. Unfortunately, we're from Pangasinan and it is miles away from  Manila... therefore, it's so sad to say that they have to find another one. So far, they congratulated me for winning the contest. But err,  both sadness and happiness are rushing through my mind. (This is the deceit of joining a contest far from your location. ) "Aww. Sayang naman..." the woman said in a pitiful voice. Here comes my regret and sympathy of saying: "Okay lang po...sayang naman! How sad. Pero okay lang, better luck next time..."

After the conversation with that woman, I shouted my victory to my mom and I bet the whole neighborhood heard it! "Ma, panaloo tayo!" My mom asked with a sash of curiosity: "Baka loko lang 'yan?" Then I answered, "Hindi Ma. Ito yung sinalihan ko sa facebook. Sa Araneta Center. Halika tignan mo itong pinost ko:

The Winning Entry

"It's my mom who gives all the LOVE that any daughter would have. I could longer delve the times when she would still offer to us the least food she have in her plate. She's our fashion designer, interior decorator, teacher, adviser and MOTHER - a thousandfold of diamonds can't even ponder how much she is valuable to US. And let me say that she's got that Dawn Zulueta look!"

After she read the last sentence, I swear I made another unforgettable, touching, and beautiful memory for her to live by. I could see the smile and joy in her face without looking back at her. She even suggested, "Tanungin mo kasi kung pwede ipadala na na lang nila 'yung premyo..." 

Then she called my dad, "Sam , halika dito nanalo kami ni Samantha! Basahin mo ito..." I then let them read my winning post. They are both smiling sweetly...sweeter than the the sweetest chocolate!

I lose one BIG dream of mine... =( I lose the chance of meeting my idols Bb.Pilipinas - Universe 2011, Miss Shamcey Supsup and Bb. Pilipinas 2011-2nd runner up, Mary Jean Lastimosa . Sayang! Once in a lifetime na sana ito eh. Hindi ako makakapunta bukas sa Araneta Center for the makeover challenge.

But well, I'm not after the prize. It's the thought of winning that contest with all my effort from the bottom of my amygdala and with all the love that I put through. 

Yess! Still, I got my favorite snack(cheese fries + coconut shake) and a new 8GB flash disk from my ever loving mom Celia Crisostomo De Guzman - my source of life, love and inspiration. =)
