Well, my blog is up and running once again, sad to say that the blogger isn't. Since blogging is just totally out of range in my list of things to do, don't expect me to make my posts oh so common anymore. Well, thats it for now, enjoy!
BTW: As you can see, I have a new blogskin with only a tagboard available. My links are still under processing once again coz theres no space for it, but I'll find a way to fix it, if I have time that is. Comments for my posts are not accepted for now.

HECTIC SCHEDULE
Once again, I have been working on my academic performance 15/7 (meaning 15 hours and 7 days a week), yup... Halos araw-araw na akong gumigising ng 4:00, even on Saturdays & Sundays. I've decided to give up on a few school activities, and if my grades don't go back to normal, I'm planning to give up a few of my commitments as well. Some of them, I've already given my heart and soul into, especially me being the Vice President on the Communication Arts Society. I guess I got to learn to let go of some of my affiliations for the better. Sacrifice nga naman daw...
I'm having a hard time sa ngayon kasi late na lagi akong umuuwi, haay... Why? Because I have to wait for some of my servicemates up to 5:30pm, then I arrive at home by 7:00pm. Whats worse is nakasanayan ko nang matulog nang maaga, kaya ayun, di na ako nakakapag-aral. I just try to find time to study at school, but its not enough pa rin eh. Being a Senior is no joke, and the burden of this national test coming up is really driving me crazy. Oh well, hopefully I can think of another way on how to make my schedule more, uhm... Spacey?
HALOSCAN NOT WORKING!!
Waa... I can't get Haloscan comment boxes to work on my blog, I even followed the instructions given. Still, its not working! If you guys can help me fix my little problem, I'd really appreciate. For a commentless blog is a dull blog, I think...
THE ULTIMATE DARK-STAR 2006
Its time to cast your votes on who deserves to be my blogger for the year of 2006. Yup, anybody can enter and no explanations are needed. You can vote as many times as you want for all I care, as long as you vote!
Polls for the votations will be posted oftenly, when I have the time. ^_^

Welcome to the newly launched "Nightmares of Autumn" blog. Let me give you a few "Question & Answer" behind the scenes to what is the blog all about...
Q&A:
Q: What is "Nightmares of Autumn"?
A: A continuation to Autumn Breakaway, every single blog title reflects on my current situation in life. "Nightmares of Autumn" represents my greatest fears that are actually coming to life before my very eyes. You could actually put it simply like this, I've already stumbled and now I've stumbled lower into the ground, into a void of infinite darkness. That is what Nightmares of Autumn means.
Q: How come you chose "Nightmares of Autumn" as a blog identity?
A: Well, as I said in the first question, all my greatest fears are coming to life. And quite lately, I've been having dreams of splendor that fades to chaos. I guess you could consider them my nightmares, thats why I chose Nightmares of Autumn to be the title of my blog. To be honest, I also considered using "Autumn Foresights" or "Fears of the Autumn Shadows", but I decided to to settle with "Nightmares of Autumn" to be a bit of an opposite to another blog I saw which was actually owned by a batchmate of mine. Sad to say, she closed it down.
Q: What is your 'personality' in "Nightmares of Autumn"?
A: Personality? Uhm... I guess you could find me in a bit of a more mature state, but I'd still maintain a level of, erm... Happiness... But I have a darker soul in this state, just call me the Grim Reaper in-training...
If you got any other questions about the new blog, feel free to send them via my tagboard...
Well, actually its the same blog, but with a whole new funk to it. I totally changed my style of blogging so expect to see my metamorphosis as a blogger.

BLOGGER BLUES
Ack... I dunno why, but I think I'm on the verge of breaking my motivation in blogging. I dunno, I guess I always have a lot of things on my mind for that to have happened. Its kinda depressing for me coz blogging has been one of my favorites things to do and has ALMOST been a part of my life. ^_^
STUDENT RUNNING ON PURE ADRENALINE
More tiring days at school, more days that somehow contribute to the breaking of my very fragile motivation to study. I've been busy working out some choreography for an upcoming assembly this Saturday. For the first time, I have been chosen to lead a group of student to come up with a presentable performance. I gotta admit though that I'm more of the stage director that the choreographer, especially kung di ko feel yung pinagaabalahan ko. But the teacher who asked me to do it is just the type of person I don't want to say NO to. But I guess I'm enjoying it anyway and I guess I can consider it a challenge for me for the development of my leadership skills...
THEO-LOGY
OH MY GOD...
to be continued due to fatigue being experienced... -_- zzz...

AFTERNOON POST:
NOTE: After realizing that I shouldn't create a new post for my afternoon blogging, I just considered to edit my morning post so that all the comments for today will go in only one Haloscan Box. So here we go!
STROLLING AT SM WITH PARIS HILTON
Interested in knowing how I made it with Paris Hilton at SM Megamall? Then read what I have typed...
After typing my morning post, I decided to watch America's DEAL OR NO DEAL online with host Howie Mandell. Followed by that, I watched Donald Trump's The Apprentice which was kinda boring since I've already watched it thrice. My mom came in and literally ordered me to take a shower which I did since I really needed one badly because of the cold atmosphere of our suite. I think I took 15-20 minutes of relaxation taking a hot shower.
I then changed to my normal clothes until I found out we were going to SM Megamall and everybody else was ready, oh fuck... I changed once again into my malling clothes and walked out of the suite with a frown plastered on my face, I wasn't in the mood for hillbilly dilly-dally at that moment. We literally walked to SM Megamall since it was near by, but we had to take a few shortcuts to get there. First we passed by The Podium then St.Francis Square and finally arrived after a few minutes of walking torture. Luckily I had Hayden Panettiere singing on my iPod then so that at least I can feel a bit of joy on such a lousy day.
Upon entering SM, we climbed all the way to the top floor via escalator. Then it was time to seperate, my tita gave me and my cousins P1000.00 each (hell yah!) for shopping. So then we started strolling, until we decided to go to the record bar. Since I had a P500.00 Tower Records Gift Certificate from my aunt, I decided to use it there. I kept on finding the perfect cd, and then I spotted Paris Hilton, her cd that is. There were two kinds, one with a DVD worth P800.00 and one w/o a dvd worth P350.00. Damn, I should have gotten the one with the DVD and just could have added P300.00 to the P500.00, but stupid me decided to get a Pinoy Dream Academy CD worth P150.00 to total to P500.00 exact.
And there I was, strolling with Paris Hilton in the background. I never said I literally strolled with Paris Hilton at the mall, right? And not only that, the CD came with a free voucher to her perfume, so I got that too. Paris Hilton for Men, I didn't even know she had a line of perfume for men as well. The card to her perfume read 'how Paris Hilton wanted her man to smell', when I smelled it at first, I smelled MELON. Yup, melons, then I blurted out a joke to my cuz. I bet Paris wanted her man to smell like melon because she doesn't have any melons to brag about, get it? If you don't get it, you must be innocent. So thats makes it strolling with TWO Paris Hilton, bwahahaha...
So here I am now, listening to Paris sing on my iPod, haay... Its such a boring day, my god! Despite that I'm living luxury as of now, its still boring ya know. Don't worry, next time, I'll tell you about my experience when I had a chat with Nicole Richie, hehe...
Coming Later: MY EVENING POST!
MORNING POST:
DISCOVERING PASAY'S -DISCOVERY SUITES-
Hey guyz, sembreak is almost over. Talk about a total killjoy. Well, here I am blogging at a totally prestege hotel called Discovery Suites. I mean, the airconditioning is so friggin' cold and I think I overate at the all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet, oh crud. It was so funny coz we kept on stashing food in our bags, we just sorta sneaked the food out. We got a tubs of yogurt, bwahahaha...
The internet connection here is so convenient, its so friggin faster then Netopia's internet connection! I'm so looking forward to a hot shower later and hopefully, if I got the time, I'm gonna take a hot tub bath. I totally missed practice today, damn my club mod's gonna get so friggin' pissed. And to think that I'm supposed to lead today. *burps* Urgh... I ate too much. I think I ate too much omelette, at least I didn't eat any prunes, that might have been the last straw to total toilet explosion.
We're gonna be going to the mall later, hell ya!
THEO-LOGY
I'll make this a point. If you see THEO-LOGY as a header, that means the article is gonna be gory, funny, censored, or just plain weird. So here's my first THEO-LOGY story.
CHARACTERS: Theo/JR, IB and Ish (my cuzins)
>Our breakfast buffet was coming to its toll when everybody started getting ready to leave. I saw my cousin get a few yogurts, all in different flavors. I thought they were gonna eat it until she started talking.
>IB: Hey JR, can I borrow your bag??
>(I hold out my bag)
>Theo: Why?
>IB: (points at yogurts)
>Theo: Wha... Oh my God! Oh hell no! Are you really gonna do that?
>IB: (gets bag)
>(all at the table burst into laughter, us teens that is...)
>Theo: Uh... Anybody want some yogurt?
>Ish: Yogurt?
>Theo: Ya know, (quote, unquote) YO-GURT?
>Ish: Oh! The yogurt!
>Theo: (stands and gets two tubs of yogurt, returns back to table) Shh...
>And then we leave, la lang. This is either comedy for you or another plain, weird and senseless article...
NINTH DARK-STAR: RALPH da FRAPPPSTER @ http://frapppster.blogspot.com
Who said vanity is for girls only? Us guys can be more vain then gals ya know. And Ralp is living proof, considering his blog as a VAINYARD, his articles are all out. I mean, you gotta admit that he's really got it happening with his theme and not-to-mention his articles which makes it like totally reading the daily newspaper? Why? Because you'd always come back for new stuff.
BTW, starting from the last Dark-Star up to the Dark-Stars in the future, pahlease, if you guys want one of those award thingies, just ask one from me. Coz after finding that some of the Dark-Stars don't use the buttons, I've decided that those who actually become Dark-Stars may request it instead. Blech... By the way, I now accept orders for those who want awards made for their own blogs, not Dark-Star awards, I meant if you want your own customized button, just ask me. As long as you don't pester me.
COMMENTLESS DAYS
Sometimes, I wonder if I should go under an anonymous blogspot in thinking that I can start out fresh and finally get people to come to this so-called new blogger's blog. I mean, would you lookat some of my article? Their just plainly commentless. I envy those who get comments in every single one of their articles. Oh well... I'm thinking of closing down the blog soon, ack, I dunno... Its just a thought that I'm considering, ^_^

THE SILENCE
This is a shot of the band that played during my birthday bash. As said by the title, they are known as The Silence. They are wickedly awesome coz all of them have the vocal talent and at the same time all have a very pleasing personality.
MAGIC CIRCLE OF FIVE
A shot of my cousins during the bash. From left to right: Paolo, Lawrence (MVP High Winner), Ishilafufu (one of my emcees during the bday), Kwiky (the official provider of these photos), and Dyosa Illinois (another emcee tandem with Ishilafufu)
NOTE: !@#$%&, what the hell! Just when my photo uploading just became successful, it gives up on me again resulting that 7 more images haven't been uploaded yet. CURSES! The follow-up soon to come.
LAST WEEK's 7th DARK-STAR SPOT TAKEN BY THIRD VILLAREY
Sorry if I wasn't able to post something about last week's Dark-Star. Hopefully I can make upthrough this post. Ladies and gents, the 7th Dark-Star is Third @ http://dvillarey2006.blogspot.com. What made him my chosen Dark-Star for last week was the fact that I just couldn't help but give him the spotlight at last after 4 consecutive nominations as a possible Dark-Star.
So here we have him, Mr.Villarey as our chosen Dark-Star! If you wanna reach the guy, IM him via YM @ dvillarey2006@yahoo.com.
8th CHOSEN DARK-STAR RINA @ http://www.cheesyness.info/kawaii/
After a long shot of newly found bloggers on my connection, one of them was just irresistable that I just had to put her on my Dark-Star list. Having the phrase "huwag ka nang iiyak" all over her blog just gives you a place of comfort. No, not a restroom, but a place to chill out for a bit with her awesome blog entries that will surely add sunlight to your stormy afternoon. And I mean that literally. I know my day was complete after all those gray clouds supertyphoon Paeng brought to me.
Here we go, Rina as the chosen Dark-Star for Week 8. IM her at sakura_hermione@yahoo.com to get to know the cutie behind the bloggie. (ohkay, that was just an attempt to make the ending a tad bit rhymey, guess it was unsuccessful...)
BRING IT ON: ALL OR NOTHING (cool yet the worse yet)
Starring major cutie Hayden Panettiere (from Racing Stripes and Ice Princess) and the new gal on the block, Solange Knowles-Smith (yup, good guess, she's Beyonce's sister), Beacon has once again made another Bring It On movie as a whole new story in the follow-up for another top dawg movie follow-up from Bring It On Again. The whole story is about Brittany (Panettiere), the captain for the #1 cheer squad in their state, the Pacific Vista Pirates. But all of her hardwork to get the captain spot, not-to-mention her dream quarterback football boyfriend, goes down to flames when her father loses his job. She is then forced to move to Crenshaw Heights. Their she meets Camille (Knowles-Smith), and her two girlfriends (as in chums, not as a lesbian, dummie...) Kirrisha (Giovannie Samuels, from Nick's All That) and Leta (Francia Almendarez, damn, she's one hot babe).
To satisfy her thirst for cheering, she joins Crenshaw Heights Pirates and finds herself in a rivalry with her ex-team headed by bitchy-whore Winnie (I forgot her real name). This movie features a lot of newbie people as similar to Bring It On Again, but this one is just another trying hard movie to equal its original Bring It On. I'm not saying it suck coz I liked it, but it wasn't as fun as its original. Still, it was pretty much another bomb diggity. Although it was probably one of the most cheer-otic because of Pacific Vista's vulgarity in the Rihanna-search.
BLOGGER IS A PIC FAILURE
Hehe, la lang. Kakainis kasi ayaw i-upload ng Blogger yung pix na gusto kong ilagay. Kaya wala man lang masyadong pix yung mga entries ko. Oh well, I guess its because of our somewhat lousy computer internet connection as well.
Lord, please improve my computer's connection to the internet. Amen...

Paladin of the Rust Dragon
By: Edwin Theo Rodriguez
(an English sonnet)
I walk in a forest wearing a cloak and hood
To look for thy master, the scapegoat heir
But on my journey I was given a big scare
By the sight of the dragon as mighty as it should
The dragon’s color was as of rust wood
Which released a from it’s belly an intense cinnabar flare
As a knight, oh yes I would dare
To slay the dragon as hard as I could
And I fought so hard until blood spurt from it scale
As I said, “Dragon, you must bow down to me,
for I shall be your master.”
And now I am proud to wear dragon-scaled mail
I, the knight with a spirit so free
The paladin I am, going faster and faster
