Crunchtime

Fri, 14 Jan 2011 08:10:18 +0000

Exams is in a few days and I cannot concentrate or even put myself in study mode. I still have the Holiday bug on me and its hard to shake it off. But since , I am a Flyhigh scholar I have to be ready for the exams or I will have to face the consequences. I dread not walking up on stage and receiving my medal it would be a nightmare for me . To help me calm my nerves and keep myself grounded. I have thought of a strategy that will help me manage the exams . First make an outline of the important topics that were discussed - review it three times . Then make a sample exam of which, the topic is similar to what I reviewed - check my own exam and in two hours I am done and ready for the next subject . The key to understanding and getting the grade is by not having too many distractions . Put away the games , don't open fb or twitter until work is finish and review the topic before taking the exams. Now that I have a plan and have shared it with you teambloggista - all we have to do is follow it . Goodluck this Monday ;-)

START YOUR NEW YEAR RIGHT

Tue, 04 Jan 2011 07:47:26 +0000

Its been awhile and I'm so happy to be back on track . This New Year wonderful things are in store for all of us . Believing in yourself is a great start ;-)

So like most of you I celebrated my New Year with my Family , Friends , Pets, and Help. We had an array of food that could feed two platoons . We had our fruits on our table to welcome the New year with goodluck . When the clock striked twelve I started celebrating in style with my sparklers minus the risk of losing an arm , a leg or any of my precious body parts. I took a video of the wonderful fireworks our neighbors were showing , they were competing whose celebration would last the longest . Of course I had to comfort my pets who thought it was the end of their pampered world .I called loved ones who were far away .

New Year is definitely something to look forward to , its a time to rethink your dreams , find solutions , conquer challenges and celebrate new victories. So , this New Year Falcons , try to think positive , be healthy eat well . also write on your wish book and slowly your dreams will come true as long as you believe. Goodluck .

ALEC is definitely MVP material!

GMA girls dances for the Kapuso Baranggayan at Macasandig . It was fun for the girls ! Thank you GMA for taking care of Synergy ;-)

Jaden Smith you are adorable!

Mon, 21 Jun 2010 04:33:55 +0000

Teambloggista, I watched Karate Kid last week and I had the best time ever! I had great company plus Jaden Smith is really adorable ! The story is about a boy who moves to China with his Mom . He struggles in his first few days but finds strength in character when he meets his friend and karate teacher ( Jackie Chan) . The film does not stray from the original Karate Kid story but I must say Jaden Smith is such a good actor. Plus his killer move in the end is awesome!!! I was crushing on him while watching the movie! The film is a must see and it captures your heart as you see Jaden go through the process . I give it 3.5 buckets of popcorn !

Yes we work so hard to make sure we give you the best shows in MdO . We are young but we are exceptional - we have gained accolades in singing , dancing , and even excel in Academics. We are the Performing Arts Group - part of MdO's elite !

So for two moths on top of our Summer classes we have been rehearsing with our voice coaches, learning new choreography etc. , pictorials for 2010 Back to School Campaign etc.

One of my favorite shots !

oh yes ! we had a busy Summer but we also know how to have fun !!!

We had a school blessing and so we helped grill some chicken , we had lechon , spaghetti, chicken macaroni , buko jello lychee salad etc. Yum! The priests blessed all the rooms at the Main and in the Highschool Campus . We also got a sprinkle from Father , so I think it'll be a very smooth sailing year for me :-)

the Vendredi party and blessing !

Movie Review : Prince of Persia

Fri, 04 Jun 2010 14:55:42 +0000

After our wonderful bonding dinner with our PAG friends , Thea and I decided to watch a movie at SM . When we got to SM we bought our tickets for Jake Gyllenhaal's movie The Prince of Persia " The Sands of Time". Of course we got our snacks and were so excited to see how the video game turned out to be. With a power cast of Oscar Nominated Actors I knew I was going to have a wonderful time watching the movie!

The story is about about an adventurous Prince working together with a rival princess to reveal the true killer of his father and stop his uncle from corrupting the mind of his brother the King . There's more to it but , I don't want to ruin your movie experience . I must say the movie was well-edited and it was truly action packed . Every moment I was flinching because of all the effects and exciting parts in the movie. I give the movie three and a half tumblers because I really had fun and Jake G. really looked hot in the movie ! Now Jake G. has joined the lists of my hollywood hunk favorites including Wolverine Hugh Jackman and of course my Edward Robert Pattinson :-)

The Spotlight is on Mark and Lyka :-)

Fri, 14 May 2010 18:17:38 +0000

These past few weeks , with the elections and all , I know fellow Falcons that you have been monitoring the news ;-) And your teambloggista correspondent has been glued to the tube just like you, not just because of the elections but because I so much love the MDO EXCEPTIONAL EDUCATION AD! I am so proud of Mark and Lyka -because when they had to pitch for their spiel , they really impressed even the GMA crew ;-) Way to go Mark and Lyka , like you I believe in the MdO way!Thank you for making me smile during commercial break , your ad is indeed refreshing amongst the repetitive political ads ;-)

Fun Summer without breaking the bank !

Fri, 14 May 2010 17:51:17 +0000

This Summer like most of my friends I joined the bandwagon and I am playing fb's online games. I think its the best way for me to save myself from boredom and to save money . So far I am loving it ! So let's talk about Farmtown, I love how interactive it is and how we get to go to the market and offer to harvest or plow for people from different countries and places. I also like how I can decorate my farm and make money when I hire people to do the work for me. When I started, level 34 was the highest level and because Farmtown fans asked for more perks like another farm expansion, and themes the developers of Zynga gave in :-) Now my favorite game is over level 34 yeah ! yeah! I'd like to share the mechanics and how to go about it, but I think the best way is for you to try out the game. But if I were to rate the game I'd give it a 9 over 10 and it has the highest ratings for me because it is interactive and other games are not . Give it a try - in time your farm may be the best one on the block ;-)

Are you a Belieber?

Fri, 14 May 2010 17:39:05 +0000

So this is long overdue and I really have to write about him . First because I am crushing on him like most of you are *wink* wink* Justin Bieber is making waves , in France he made such a spectacle that he had to be escorted by so many Policemen. This guy is just on fire , his concert was even cancelled in one of the places he visited to because the fans just went so wild over him . So , what makes Justin Bieber so special ? Well first of , Justin has the looks , talent , and the star power! I am so in love with his song " One less lonely girl" . Online social networks are crazy about Justin and on Twitter , its trending always at the top . So, fellow falcons are you a Belieber too? I hope we'll hear more of his music in years to come :-)
