And turns out, you're singing it all wrong.

You Alone Can Make My Song Take Flight.

Music of the Night - The Phantom of the Opera. When will I get these songs out of my system? xD

I'm awake rather late right now with a weird feeling. It's like my eyes are tired, but I'm not sleepy at all. An afternoon nap that lasted for 3 hours may be the reason behind this.

Right after I woke up from that nap, and that was around 6 PM, I had merienda then hung around at our room again. A while after my sister left, I started to clean our rest room, because it was my job to clean the floor, the sinks, and the counter.

When I was done with that, I still felt like cleaning stuff, so I swept the floor in our bedroom then spent the rest of the time before dinner polishing the floor using a COCONUT HUSK. With me, those are surefire signs of extreme OCD. Luckily, they come in spurts, so my friends themselves know that I am NOT addicted to hand sanitizer. xD

I'm don't feel like typing anything, really. I just thought I should share with you, dear reader, my so-called adventures for the day. Now you know that I, Gabrielle, when faced with boredom, become obsessive compulsive.

Also, when it comes to pasta, I can have up to four servings. That's how much I love pasta. Red sauce on pasta! Leonidas! Gerard Butler! The Phantom of the Opera!

Impressive word association don't you think?

Nah.

See the Pretty Girl in that Mirror there!

I haven't updated in more than a week, and might be caused by the fact that... I'm too lazy to update. :D

Songs from musicals keep getting stuck in my head. First, I kept on singing All I Ask of You and the Music of the Night from The Phantom of the Opera. FOR A WEEK. Then, today, I started singing Without Love and Good Morning, Baltimore from Hairspray in my head. And now... *sigh* My LSS is the funniest. I Feel Pretty from West Side Story. =))

If I really felt pretty, then I probably will lose the feeling once my parents decide to have my eyes checked again and have me wear glasses... Again. Let me tell you the story of a little girl...

She was a 6 year old girl with apple-cut hair and full bangs, and skin that was almost the same color as her white school socks. She often complained to her mum about a headache, and soon they went to an ophthalmologist who said that she did need glasses because she was astigmatic. She wore them until the end of 1st grade, then never wore glasses since.

And that girl is... not me. Not. HA? :)) Yeah, it was. They said my skin blended in with my white socks eh. That was in grade 1, of course. :D But anyway, there, I'll have glasses again because I'm nearsighted and slightly astigmatic (that's what the ophthalmologist told my dad). I know how I look with a pair of glasses on, whatever shape the frames are. I look like a nerd.

Oh well. xP

"Who can that attractive girl be? Such a pretty face, such a pretty dress, such a pretty smile, such a pretty---"

Not me. xD

It Was Called Yellow.

Finally, after telling you all that I love Coldplay, I make a blog entry with their song as a title. Actually, this was only one of the many songs that got stuck in my head today, but then I've already used the rest, and I promised myself that there would be variety in the songs I feature here.

Anyway, I customized and used a layout and it's a bit lighter than the last two I've used, which is good. I kept on using layouts with the color black, and it seems so gloomy, so... yeah. I'm not feeling quite articulate these days, so please forgive me for that.

My layout consists mostly of the colors violet, blue, and yellow, some of my favorite colors. *Well, actually, I like almost every color there is. Heh.* I'm hoping that it looks fine.

On to the topic of my LSS now. This song, Yellow, is the song of theirs that I've loved ever since I was a little kid. My brother was the one who let me hear this song, and though I didn't really love it at first, as the years went by, I came to do so. I love it because I find it so sweet that he'd write a song, jump across, bleed himself dry, and all of the other actions for the one he loves. I'm taking it quite literally, I know. xD

To spare you from any more stupid ideas, I'll end the entry here. I know that I didn't make any sense at all.

If I'm Right, Then Prove Me Wrong.

Man, I can't seem to get McFly's Transylvania out of my head! I blame all of this on Banana. :| She brainwashed me into liking McFly... Though I haven't listened to their other songs yet. HAHA.

The last two days have been nice, as I've made new friends. They're two girls who are on the same street as me, and their houses are really near mine, so it's easy to go from one house to another. We spent today walking around my unsafe village, going to one house, then to mine, then to another one. The last one we went to was the one we stayed in until 7 PM.

We were playing Clue, that game where you solve a mystery and stuff. It was a cool game, and it's the game I've wanted since I was around 10 years old. Okay, that's just three years, but what the heck.

Tomorrow, we're gonna go to that last house again and swim in their inflatable swimming pool (xD) and play The Game of Life. =)) Perfect name, huh? xD

Would Someone Please Call a Surgeon

Man, I'm sleepy. Still, I'm kinda cramming on stuff despite the fact that it's summer. I am a part of the yearbook staff, and though I had hoped that participating in activities like that would make me more disciplined, I was still being my old procrastinating self. xP

Anyway, I'd be dozing off in my gay-looking room by now if only Photobucket would upload pictures faster.

Explanations for the previous sentence:

  • dozing off - it's 11PM already.
  • gay-looking room - I'm now sharing a pink-and-lavender-colored room with my eldest sister.
  • Photobucket uploading pictures - pictures for the yearbook, which I still have to edit. :-/
  • writing an explanation - I understand what I myself write, but maybe normal people wouldn't.
The pictures are taking forever. *rolls eyes... only in her imagination* Maybe I shouldn't edit them anymore. They only need cropping... *taps chin thoughtfully... again, just in her mind* Ah, well. Gabby the Procrastinator can be so clever when it comes to... yeah, procrastinating.

*continues singing "Nothing Better" by Postal Service... obviously in her head*

Everything happens in my mind. Except for the typing of the blog entry. *dances about... you know where*
