My Pink Serenade

School

2009-04-23T21:11:00.004+08:00

I miss school, as what I have said on the post before this one. And now, I will share to you those moments that are so unforgettable in my school life. By the way, I got no time to update because many use computer here in the house, so I have no time to post and update, but I'll try my best to be active at all times to keep my blog so much alive. So, back to the topic, here they are:

Lovely Advisers of the Classes
Every year, my adviser or our teacher-in-charge in our class is so kind. They treat us as daughters and sons. They accept our mistakes, they try to understand us, so they know our limitations. Even though sometimes (or even most of the time), he or she gets mad to us, but I think, deep inside, they also get hurt while scolding us. So, if there is still time, love your second mothers and fathers, for they love you, too. :]

Adviser of St. Boniface of Our Batch
Teacher Joreme (my grade 2 teacher of -I forgot the subject-), became so good to me on my Grade 2 life even though she is not my adviser. That started week or weeks before my birthday, that time, Teacher Joreme wants me to go to the room (Boniface) to fix my hair. She is so sweet, and I think until now she still knows me (I hope so)!

Awards
One of the best thing of being a student. I had honors consecutively for how many years in St. Benedict School of Novaliches, and I became a little bit famous because of that, but I didn't prefer being so famous. I am just there for studying and my friends, but having awards is worth it and for your good, right? So I am trying my best to continue my good record on the school.

Oh so Friends
I love my friends a lot, and I bond at them especially at school. I love hanging out with them, helping them, giving them advices or even comforting them when they are not feeling well. Usually, they are the ones who understand me in case of having tantrums and moods that seldom show. Some of my friends are Thea, Anikka, Jessa, Christine and Lesley.

The "Sama ng Loob" Cases
The cases wherein you know you have talent, but you are no way chosen - thing that rumbles my heart. It started when I was in Grade 4 pa. It seems like they are discouraging me on developing my talents and showing it in front of the audience. IDK, but now, I feel better. One is - not taking up on being a reader on mass, especially during the graduation. My friend said, "Bakit ganon Betina, eh, sila nakuha, eh mas magaling ka naman magbasa kesa sa kanila." (not the exact words, but it is still the same meaning), then I said, "Di ko alam, eh.". IDK, and now, IDC.

The Tears of Goodbye
"Buksan ang bawat pahina.", I heard from someone else, maybe a teacher. Related to the goodbye thing. You need to close a page to open another page, another characters, and challenges, and everything. Even though it is hard to leave people on the last school year, we need to, to go to the next School Year. There is no safe way to avoid missing someone else, but someday we will move on! And the feeling is- so much YAY!
BTW, in relation, I miss Teacher Meann. :]

Not related to the topic, I gonna update the site soon, even though I am planning to use WordPress, using the SweetestStranger.Clar-Ity.Net site. I will no way import blog posts, to start a new beginning. Well, wish me luck! And I hope you will help me, those using WordPress. Thanks!

Summer...?

I have been on Kai's blog (kill-all-idiots.blogspot.com), and I found out this blog rating thing. Click the image to have your blog rated. As you can see, mine is rated for "General Audiences". It is proven because I used the word "pain" once. Lol. All ages admitted. Haha. Yeah, all ages, but not all people. Lol. Hehe. Thanks a bunch Kai for sharing that on her blog. :]

Another one is the one above this paragraph (sorry if it is not centered, just because it can't. Lol). I got fun with this game. With the help of my brother, I got 30 names of colors named. So much fun! Hehe. In 5 minutes, you must name as many colors as you can and as you know. Click here for the game.

Back to the topic. I am really bored here in the house. It is summer already, and all I can do is to design my notebook, net, net and net. What about that? My life is so lame, that's why I hate this season. I even miss school a lot, even though some people don't. After all, they will agree to me. I am a kind of student who loves answering teachers' questions and I also love learning, in spite of being on the Net always. I so love schooling, that my life revolves on it a lot. I am different from others out there who hates school and considers it a hell place of learning. Wonder on how can you get friends and get learning without school. If you are homeschooled, after all, you will not enjoy. About the post before this, the tag ones. I haven't uploaded it yet because I am so lazy to do it. Maybe I will do it very soon.

That's all sharing. Ciao!

Conficker, Pictures, Tag

2009-04-01T14:09:00.002+08:00

I really have a lot of things I want to share to all of you, that I'll only dump to a post. Maybe you could get tired reading this post? But I'll give you some information about some things. Let us start with that one, the Conficker. It alarmed me so much. At first. I saw it on the news, but not really as a whole. I just heard the words "computer", "virus" and "antivirus". Then, when I opened my Yahoo Messenger, I got a GM from my online friend, CJ. It is all about the Conficker virus, that will arrive on April 1. Because of that, I asked a lot of questions, and I did a lot of researches. I think it is not a prank, because it is shown on TVs and also, how could it be a prank if it is also in Yahoo, and even in Wikipedia? But, let me give you some information about it. They say that the Conficker Virus is really a virus that can affect a lot of computers, particularly ones using Windows. The researches say that Mac OS is safe and somehow, Linux. Beware of getting online, downloading files from untrusted sites, and those USB or Flash Drives. Those are some ways on how can you get the Conficker Virus. The way that the virus is made is so advanced. Computers having it will have a difficulty in curing and taking away that virus. It attacked a lot of computers lately. On my researches, it also states that even getting offline on April 1, and going back to April 2, or changing the time of your computer will not do anything to be safe. There will be a lower risk of getting the virus when you have an Antivirus. If you can open any sites of antivirus (like Microsoft.com), your computer is still safe and free from Conficker Virus. Actually, I got shocked with that and I am so afraid, but I am quite okay now. I am not thinking about that much today. Thank you Ate CJ, Microsoft, Yahoo and Wikipedia for the information.

Second one is the pictures. I want to share all my pictures today in my Friendster profile, those one in the Public Photos album. You can view the album here. Some of my pictures are those below:

My Primary Photo

Another Photo of Mine. I have an edited version of this.

No captions at all. :)
More at my Public Photos Album.

About the tag thing, Ate Pilya of So-Lavish.Com tagged me on her blog. Actually, it is a handwriting. I didn't take a picture of it now, so this post will be edited or updated soon. I love getting tagged, but as much as possible, inform me when you do so. So that, I could post it in my blog and tag other people. My handwriting sucks, so better not expect on having a good handwriting.

That's all, Ciao!

Graduation

2009-03-29T09:36:00.005+08:00

"All good things come to an end..."

Since I am so busy, I have not posted the special moments on time, so let us do it through an organized list. I am not that happy yet still a bunch of superb happiness because I got my own diploma and 10 medals. Wahoo! So, let us start.

March 23 - Start of our Graduation Practice, plus Rechecking of Final Exams Test Papers.
A half day for the rechecking, and another half for the start of our practice. I can't feel graduation at that time, 'coz our practice just make our throat ache. Waaahhh...

March 24 - Resume of Practice
A whole day practice. Of course, fun is still there in singing. I so love singing and I practiced using the diaphragm in hitting the high notes. How cool. Wahaha. I can now reach them... and I learn little by little.

March 25 - Resume of Practice, plus Arrival of my Dad to the Airport
Yeah. My dad arrived earlier because of my graduation! Yipee! And because of that, the school allowed me to wear civilian clothes. Wahaha. But I am not alone in shining because of my clothes. Wahaha. Some also wore civilian clothes. Of course, I have the timing. XD. We have lotsa chocolates, and I love the Galaxy one! Wahaha. So delicious. It tastes like Cadbury. :)

March 26 - General Practice
So bad bad bad practice. That's all I can say. But it is alright.

March 27 - No Classes, Shopping in Duty Free
A lot of chocolates! Yipee! I so love it, even though I am not fond of eating chocolates. What matters is, there is no classes! We have time to relax a little bit.

March 28 - *Drumroll* Our Graduation!
Yeah. On the afternoon, my mom and I went to a parlor for my hari and make-up. I looked elegant. Yeah. Wahaha. I got 11 medals, and I got few pictures. I hate it so much. But the medals and the program can be my own souvenirs. I love you my bathmates and teachers!

To view my Graduation Pictures, click here. Below are some pictures of my graduation:

My dear Fredeganians, Thank you for being with me for 10 months of our life being Grade 6. I learned a lot of things with you, and now, the time ended for us. We will now go to another chapter in our lives. Let us welcome High School with a smile, even though the pain of goodbye still hurts us so much. Let us try our best to get high grades. Kaya natin 'to. Wahaha. Enjoy your summer guys. Wish you all the best. Cry cry.

Your classmate, B_e_T_i_N_a.

Love you all. Farewell. :((

Net World and Real World Getting Busy

2009-03-22T09:32:00.004+08:00

How was that? XD. The title says it all. But, let us start with the updates about the blog. I will make a new layout here on MyPS. I will have a new blog name for next year, named Thoughts Roads. That is because I like to renew my blog because I think this blog is such a failure. XD. Not really failure. It is not an exact word. Maybe because I don't feel posting here anymore? Sorry for lacking of updates. XD. EDIT: I changed the layout already! Do you like it? Just hit the tagboard! Thanks!

About the Net world, I have just applied for a subdomain hosting of Clar-Ity.Net. So, I am working on it now. I miss being a site administrator once again! XD. My layout in VixenArt topped for how many days, and I so love it! Thanks for those who keep on supporting me in the designing world. Speaking of layouts and designs, I also want to share that I am now a layout author of Friendster-Layouts. Wajaja. It is nothing to deal with. I open myself more to VA than to FS-Layouts. XD. Maybe because I know some people at VA more than on FS-Layouts? IDK. XD. Maybe because I am new there. XD.

In the Real World, our exams have just finished. You know. I have not opened the computer for 5 days. Thank goodness I didn't get sick of it. XD. I watched S.A all day long on Youtube. All I can say is that the ending is beautiful yet it ended me hanging up. What was that? The last thing that a person said (Hikari) is "Don't call me Miss Rank Two (or Miss Rank #2)!" to Takishima. Waaa! What a mess. XD. Joke. But I still love the show because of it makes me feel kilig through my veins. XD. BTW, I made a new layout that is S.A themed. Just visit my Friendster Profile: http://profiles.friendster.com/betinaxd

Currently Opened: My Blog and FS-Layouts profile.
Currently Chatted With: No one. People ae not online yet.

Curently Planning: To design a Web Layout for my New Site and Blog.

A Lot Happened...?

2009-03-08T08:05:00.008+08:00

Yes! I am free! At last! But not totally. XD. I am now unto a review mind for the final exams. Gaah. But our NAT exam is already finished. Gaah. How about the answer sheet. That's the only problem. Gaah. I hope that scanning machine will approve my paper or else... I'll kill that ------- material. XD. The exam is quite easy, even though sometimes, I had hard time answering questions. But ou teachers said that the exam is easy, well... maybe because they are teachers and we are students? XD, but for me, the exam is okay. I also love our proctors. They are not that masungit, and they are really helpful to us. Wajaja... what about in other rooms? XD. Just wondering. But, what matters is the exam. I hope I did it. I hope our school did it to the top 3, 2 or even top 1. Gaah. I hope so.

Another Sunday morning. My mother has a headache today, so we just celebrated Mass on TV. Gaah. What about the Holy Communion? XD. But what matters is, mapagaling ang mama ko... Hm... so, to mom, get well soon! XD. Don't let headache bring you down. XD. This day is just another ordinary day to me. Where I can do anything I want, but obliged, as usual, to do things like washing the dishes, and studying my books for the exams, or final exams. Gaah. Sorry for not updating for a long time. XD

I just visited St. Engelmund yesterday... to visit their adviser, and my favorite teacher. XD. I so love talking to her and her sons and daughters (because she is the one who is the adviser of the section, XD). And also, sharing stories with them is really like having so much fun. At last! After many works and being busy, I finally talked to her. I even want to talk to her more, but the time is really not enough. I hope, even just for a day, I could go back to my Grade 5 days, so I could go again to my happy and most unforgettable moments of my life. Even though I had also so much fun while in Grade 6 today, wala paring tatalo sa moments noong Grade 5 ako. XD.

BTW, I got tagged by Janile, or Janjan, because that's the way I call her. XD. So, here it is:

Okay, the rules are simple. Answer the questions, post it on your blog, tag four more people and place your name at the bottom.

Ultimate Shockers

2009-02-28T13:30:00.003+08:00

Another post by me. Lol. XD. I have things to say, to express. XD.

I am now making my "message to teachers" today, now in the form of HTML. Wahaha, I just want them to know I have skills and that right amount of honesty. Lol. XD. Too bad, nasanay na ako sa text lingo, iyon nalang ang ginamit ko. Do you want to view it? Just visit at this site.Wajaja.

And, when I viewed the profile (Friendster) of benedictines batch... wow. I can't even believe of what I saw. Look at it here.

Wajaja, one of my Friendster layouts became one of the TOP friendster layouts! Wajaja. I love it so much. That's why the title of my post is "Ultimate Shocker", just because of this happening. Woah! Wajaja. Shout for Joy! Wajaja... I still can't believe about what happened. You can view my Friendster Layouts here. Thanks for supporting my layouts! :)

Mock Achievement Test

2009-02-24T16:24:00.002+08:00

Oh yeah. We just took it up. Not that amazed with the results, but fine. Lol. XD. But what's good is that we didn't have any classes at all. Wahaha. But, I still miss Teacher Meann. Just that. :(. That's all. Miss you guyz. Smooch!!!
BTW, updates will be soon, so stay tuned!!!

Will not update for a long time =(

2009-02-21T13:51:00.002+08:00

Sorry, for my links, but I think I have no time today for updates, or even blog to this site. Wah. I hate it. I have lotsa works to do, and now, my eyes are aching! What the hell is now happening to me? Life has never been this busy. You know, maybe I'll see myself just working throughout the day in school. =(.

Need your Votes!

2009-02-20T16:31:00.002+08:00

Hey, the poll on SOTM on Sweet Posh has started already. Please support me! I need your votes! Just vote on the poll. If you need my own support to you, I'll also support you, guys, but please support me first! Wahaha, this is the first time that I begged you to support me, so please grant it? Wahaha, kk, see ya guys!

Lost Links =(

2009-02-17T18:37:00.002+08:00

Yes, during my blog editing, I lost all my links once again, as what happened to my old blog. Wahaha. So, if you are one of my links, just use the tagboard and indicate that you want me to link you again. Wahaha, if you are no longer interested, then so not. Wahaha. BTW, my blog is still UC, so the tag, archives, links and credits page are still not capable for viewing, so, just wait. I'll make further announcements. That's all. Have lotsa things to do. Bye sweeties! Washoo!

Getting Busy and Outdated

2009-02-15T09:26:00.002+08:00

Yes. February and March will be the busiest months of our student lives, for us graduating students, especially Grade 6. We will be having our NAT, or National Achievement Test, which is a Government Exam. Our 4th Periodical exam will also come soon because we are graduating students, and we will be the first to take up the final exams. We will also have our presentation in Hekasi. Shocks. I think I can't post my thoughts here just for a while, but I don't want my blog to get outdated. Maybe, I'll make a new layout as soon as possible for a new attraction for my dear and special visitors and online friends.

By the way, I'll make the blog renewed for next year. I mean, duh, there will be a long sessions of seconds, minutes, hours, days and months to go before 2010. I want to renew it because I am now learning how to make a Blogger Template, to make my blog a little bit professional, maybe because, I'll be a teen this coming next year, and I'll be joining different Blog Contests and Awards. Of course, the next attraction for the next year will be the contests! Yes, I'll be handling contests to all of you, my dear viewers. Do not expect big prizes, but I'll assure you the best that I can give.

On my site, Artsy Juices, I'll not be updating for weeks, because of the same reason of getting outdated here in my little home, my blog. But maybe, I'll be chainging the theme of my site. Maybe it would be only layouts site? You can suggest, but graphics are a little too not. Why? Because I am having a hard time on beautifying graphics because I am sometimes unable to download or dl brushes and fonts. Maybe, layouts and other resources would be accepted suggestions.

That's all for my post today! Washoo everyone!

Happy Valentines!

2009-02-14T11:49:00.002+08:00

Hey! I just want to greet Happy Valentines day to all of my friends and viewers. I accepted layout requests lately, and I love it. I love making designs, everybody knows that. And, BTW, because of this, I found a new friend! Wahaha, I just want to share this. Take care always! Bye sweets! Washoo!

Joined in SweetPosh SOTM March

2009-02-08T09:39:00.004+08:00

Yes, another post of the day. Another call of support. Please support me on my joined contest: Sweet Posh SOTM March of Sweet Posh, Yesha's blog. I hope you'll support me for SOTM March, since this is the first contest I ever joined, especially SOTMs. I also did all the requirements except for faving the blog in Technorati, because have no Technorati. =(. The requirements done:

Putting her on my link, which I did a long time ago, on my past blog.
Suscribing her feeds, which I did a while ago.
Putting the SOTM graphic on my sidebar.
This post for a post about the contest.

I am now calling for your all time support for the site. I hope you'll help me win in this kind of friendly and harmless competition. If you think I deserve, then support me, if it is not, it is alright. At least you are honest to me. Again, calling for your support (wow, how many times did I used those words to this post?, Lol. XD). Sweet blog hops everyone.

What's Happening?

2009-02-08T09:07:00.002+08:00

Shocks. I have a big problem with my site - Artsy Juices. What is happening? I got so much bad temper when I saw that "Page Load Error" thing. Shocking moment this Saturday morning. A really bad news. But, I'll tell you if it is working already, 'coz I updated the site and added layouts. I also updated the site layout and grouped the contents into 3 subdomains. I am now planning to have a gallery with paid services, so that I can move to a better domain hosting plan. I hope I can view my site today, even though it is not yet done. The layouts page is still under construction. Also, I want to have ads on my website, but still, I must consult it to my mom, because it is still related to money. Lol. XD. I hope I can view my site as soon as NOW. Lol. XD. It seems so impossible, but I hope my host will fix it absolutely NOW. =)

Praised Blog Designs

2009-02-05T16:49:00.004+08:00

Okay, I love blog hopping this time, and I just want to post some "Praised Web Designs" for me. Some because they are professional yet pleasing to the eyes, some are really kawaii, some are really just that amazing. (Remember: These mentioned blogs have their own web designs that are used for their blogs). So, let us start.

1. DigDesignz (http://www.digdesignz.net/)
Her Web Design is great, in fact, she is the best Graphic and Web Designer I have ever known. Her designs are so professional, yet they are so pleasing to the eyes. The navigation used is noticeable and soothes to the layout. The site is so useful and wonderful. Really one of the sites that I am fan of.

2. Jadee (http://noiseless-superheroine.blogspot.com/)
The header looks so much great that made me like the layout. You can see that the layout is beautiful yet a simple one because of its header.

3. Julia (OMJ!) (http://ohmyjulia.blogspot.com/)
That virus thing is a little bit annoying, but when I looked at the layout, the stress went out. I love the way the green color is used. The header looks fine, and the simplicity made it better. I love the background and the div positioning.

4. Janile (http://xsugarysweetx.blogspot.com/)

Her blog design is great. That simple pink and white color combination made me like it. How good of her in making that kind of kawaii layout. It looks goos and soft to the eyes. Also, her blog is so full of contents and use, so, no problems about the visitors.

5. Nathz (http://nathz.co.nr/)
His designs are great. I love the layout and its designs. And also, the site is organized. That rainbow one, I think, with some words just fit the layout colors and site.

For those who are not included who expected to be here, no hard feelings, please. Respect my own opinion about the sites.
