A lot of stuff has been on my mind lately. Yeah, I have so much activities, sports and gigs to attend to. I'm such a busy person!!!...and I'm starting to hate my life now. I don't have time to play videogames anymore... :c *sigh*

Natalie Imbruglia
Torn
I thought I saw a man brought to life
He was warm, he came around like he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry
Well you couldn't be that man that I adored
You don't seem to know, seem to care, what your heart is for
But I don't know him anymore
There's nothing where he used to lie
My conversation has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's fine, I'm torn
Chorus:
I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn...
So I guess the fortune teller's right
I should've seen just what was there and not some holy light
But you crawled beneath my veins and now
I don't care, I have no luck
I don't miss it all that much
There's just so many things
That I can touch, I'm torn
[Chorus]
Torn...
There's nothing where he used to lie
My inspiration has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's right, I'm torn
[Chorus]
I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I'm ashamed, bound and broken on the floor
You're a little late
I'm already torn
Torn...

I hate school...and the work they make us do. Imagine, tons and TONS of paperwork, play prods, school projects...all in a month! Damn. I'd be really glad once this school year ends. In fact, I would sing and dance and jump and cry and and....nevermind. ~_~
I know I still have a LOT to do for tomorrow, but I must write about yesterday!
Ok, so I woke up at 5am to prepare myself and my stuff for beach volleyball. I was really excited because I was one of the chosen 5 to play! Really really cool....NOT. We played under the sun from 8am-5:30pm!! Ofcourse, once you stay under the sun for a long period of time, like 30 mins, you'd already get sunburnt. How about 9 hours and 30 mins? You would become more like a burnt hotdog or something...and I DO look like one.
So anyway, 16 schools participated in the GALS Beach Volleyball tournament, and we won 2nd place. I really felt guilty about losing the championship game because I was not feeling well during the last game. I felt like puking right then and there, but it would be really gross to puke on the sand, lol. And I couldn't see the ball, the players on the other side of the court even. It was really weird. >_<
After the tourney, Teki and I left earlier with my parents to pick Jussell up and prepare for our performance for the AHS sophnight. We played at around 9:30pm, and it was "BOOMBASTIC"! (ewww, the term hahaha!). I was with some of the Gitna peepz, and went home at 1am. Thanks Nana and Migna for waiting for my sundo!! I couldn't imagine what would be of me if you left me in the dark with all those ghosts and TIKBALANGS there. Lol! Jk! Thanks thanks ^_^
So there, I ended up sleeping at 2am, and I am sick today. Sick...and left with a lot of homework to finish.

Okay, so a lot has happened the past few days...I don't even remember all of it. So I won't post a recap tonight.
Hahahahahah I'm so lazy.
I just remember the 7 B's (as told by Mr. Francis Kong):
Books
Before
Boys
Because
Boys
Bring
Babies
Well, this isn't entirely true since not all boys bring babies (*pssst* some of 'em can't! Nah, just kidding ;D). What I meant was, not all guys have the intention of...err...bringing babies. Heheheh... =p
...and uhhh...Mr. Kong is a cool speaker! That was the first time in my high school history that I didn't fall asleep while a speaker was talking! Heheheh!
----------------------
We're having a beach volleyball game in LSGH this Saturday! How fun!
Well, it'll be fun as long as nobody watches from the outside of the beach vball court...since it will also be their annual HS fair. ~_~

Made this new layout out of severe boredom. I think it's nice...but something's missing. I dunno...it looks kind of...empty? Hahahaha...Dunno...nevermind. ^_^;

EDIT:
There, I fixed my layout. It looks more complete now... XD
2:37 PM
Didn't go to school today because of a stomachache...and because I didn't do my homework. Hahahah! Jk.. ^^ "Funny funny funny!" Lol!
----------------------
Anyway, I went bloghopping, and I found this...uhh...speech? Which is a part of "Sandman" by Neil Gaiman.
Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it?
It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest, and it opens up your heart, and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up.
You build up all these defenses. You build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you. Then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life.
You give them a piece of you.
They didn't ask for it.
They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore.
Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out, and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like "Maybe we should just be friends," turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart.
It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain.
I hate love.

Whew! Busy busy busyyyy!
I woke up at 6:30 am to prepare my things for the play prod pictorial. I also had to bring my electric and bass guitar for the band auditions for the fund raising concert in Ateneo later in the afternoon. So I met up with some of my classmates in Mcdo, ate breakfast there (yummm hotcakes!), then left for another classmate's house at around 9. We practiced a few scenes then had the pictorial.
Me and Nana had to leave early because of the auditions, so our classmate, Jam, gave us a ride back to Mcdo at 12. We waited for Teki and Jussell...then waited again for about 2 hrs to let the time pass. Well, we had to because Brian was supposed to be in Ateneo by 2pm, and we were gonna borrow their amplifiers, heheh. :D
THEN!!! Knight texted and told me that the 2-A band wasn't going to audition! We were really pissed. I mean, who wouldn't be? Waiting for 2 hours (with a LOT of stuff), then finding out that the guys who promised to lend their amplifiers just to make us audition weren't coming. Golly gee! >_< So we decided to just practice some songs in my house.
When we got here (my house), we looked for guitar tabs and lyrics of the songs we're playing on the AHS sophnight. THEN!!! Brian texted to inform us that they have amplifiers there!! We were like..."Omg! C'mon let's audition!!".
So after going through a few songs, we left for Ateneo. Brian and Leon accompanied us to the venue (Hey Nana! "ANG PANGET KO!!" Hahahahah! Joke lang...and joke lang *ehembrianehem* :D). Anyway, while we were playing our first song which was "Pretend To Be Nice", the guys there were singing! The Ooowee ooowee part. Hahahaha! :D THEN!!! They said we were good...but too stiff. So we TRIED to move while playing our 2nd song. THEN!!! They told us we were GOOOOD! Heheheheh! ^^
Brian and the guys hitched a ride out of Ateneo, and I dropped the girls in Mcdo (again). Aaaaaand...I'm now here at home, in front of the pc! Heheheh! ^^
.....I'm hungry.

.....Great, I got a 27.5/35 in the Math quiz I was talking about yesterday...that quiz I didn't study for (yeah, as if I even really study for quizzes, lol!). I wonder what grade I would get this quarter. I also scored a whoppin' 1/15 in today's English surprise quiz about theatre! Amazing!
...NOT!
Eyniwey (Sir Pino style!! Heheh, kidding... :D), training today really, really sucked. PERIOD. I'll just keep the juicy details to myself (and my teammates too, ofcourse).
...aaaaand...my bruised arm now has 2 little lumps. Ouchie.

We won 2nd place in the speechfest! And guess what...our score was just 1 point lower than the 1st place winners'. Wah, I really wanted to compete with the freshmen. But that's ok, we'll still get the 5 pts. (Am I right? Is it 5?) for our English grade. Hahahaha... =p
Hmmm, as usual, my day went fine. We had our Bio long test. Heheheh, I didn't study AGAIN. We also had a quiz in Math which was really long...and I didn't study for that too. :D I wouldn't be too surprised I ever I find out I failed or something. Hehehh. I'm so lazy, all I did last night was spend hours and hours on the phone. ^^
Speaking of which, I talked with Kaye's friend. He told me a lot of stuff about her (annoyingly weird stuff) but I won't tell anyone coz it might appear to some that I'm the backstabber. Geez..heheheh. :D I'll just keep my mouth shut about it.

Yellowcard
Way Away
I think I'm breaking out
I'm gonna leave you now
Theres nothing for me here, it's all the same
And even though I know
That everything might go
Go downhill from here, I'm not afraid
Chorus:
Way away away from here I'll be
Way away away so you can see
How it feels to be alone and not believe (Feels to be alone and not believe)
Feels to be alone and not believe anything
You can't stop me now
You can't hold me down
You can't keep me here, I'm on my way
I've made it this far now
And I'm not burning out
No matter what you say, I'm not afraid
CHORUS
Letting out the noise inside of me (Letting out the noise inside of me)
Every window pane is shattering (Every window pane is shattering)
Cutting up my words before I speak (Cutting up my words)
This is how it feels to not believe
CHORUS
8:22 PM
& about
I'm Ashley. Most people call me Ash. Some call me Ashlili/Yunie/Bully. I'm a vocalist/lead guitarist/bassist. I have 3 bands right now: The Bestidas, Hymn of Siren, and Tutuband (which is kind of not really active as of the moment). I am a member of the MCHS volleyball team. I love videogames and the arcade. I eat a lot. And I think I need to lessen my food intake ASAP. I was born lefthanded, but forced to use the right. Now, my left hand sucks, except for when playing the guitar. I named my guitar Blake, because she's black. XD I easily get pissed off, but I'm working towards successfully controlling my anger. :) I hate having nothing to do. I ALWAYS have to be doing something, even more than what I can do at once. Or else I'll feel depressed about myself. I despise smokers. So, sorry to the cool people out there lol.
