DOWNHILL
i have at least 4 inches of paper to read for the first two days of the next week (and majority of those readings are for just two subjects). i should be studying, but instead, i'm watching the tv. i've been glued to it ever since i woke up.
as of now, the government has just declared makati to be in a state of rebellion because of the rebel soldiers who took over several commercial and residental buildings in makati. bombs have been planted to ensure, according to the rebels, their safety, should the government attempt to quell the rebellion. the rebels were also given a 5pm ultimatum by GMA (philippine president), with a threat of the use of force if such is not complied with. it's the calm before the storm.
and if by 5pm, the rebels refuse to yield before the government, there is the possibility that all hell might break loose in makati.
i live in makati.
life doesn't get any better than this.
MORE CHANGES
fixed the scrollbar and did some research on html, etc. i got more things figured out and i might be putting in more changes next week. also moved the posts to see if i could put some more stuff on the left side of the site. irritated by the sidebar though. stupid thing just won't cooperate.
going to try to post another jpeg to see if it works:

What Sign of Affection Are You?

WUTHA
a test just banished me to the seventh level of hell. i must be one evil bastard.
The Dante's Inferno Test has banished you to the Seventh Level of Hell!
Here is how you matched up against all the levels:
| Level | Score |
|---|---|
| Purgatory (Repenting Believers) | Very Low |
| Level 1 - Limbo (Virtuous Non-Believers) | Very Low |
| Level 2 (Lustful) | Very High |
| Level 3 (Gluttonous) | High |
| Level 4 (Prodigal and Avaricious) | Moderate |
| Level 5 (Wrathful and Gloomy) | Very High |
| Level 6 - The City of Dis (Heretics) | Low |
| Level 7 (Violent) | Extreme |
| Level 8- the Malebolge (Fraudulent, Malicious, Panderers) | Very High |
| Level 9 - Cocytus (Treacherous) | High |
Take the Dante's Inferno Hell Test
the seventh level of hell
Guarded by the Minotaur, who snarls in fury, and encircled within the river Phlegethon, filled with boiling blood, is the Seventh Level of Hell. The violent, the assasins, the tyrants, and the war-mongers lament their pitiless mischiefs in the river, while centaurs armed with bows and arrows shoot those who try to escape their punishment. The stench here is overpowering. This level is also home to the wood of the suicides- stunted and gnarled trees with twisting branches and poisoned fruit. At the time of final judgement, their bodies will hang from their branches. In those branches the Harpies, foul birdlike creatures with human faces, make their nests. Beyond the wood is scorching sand where those who committed violence against God and nature are showered with flakes of fire that rain down against their naked bodies. Blasphemers and sodomites writhe in pain, their tongues more loosed to lamentation, and out of their eyes gushes forth their woe. Usurers, who followed neither nature nor art, also share company in the Seventh Level.
yeah, i guess i am.
PAST LIFE AND THEN SOME
i got to check my past life, see for yourself (hmmm, so i was a female in my past life. that's probably why a lot of people ask if i'm gay in my present life *lol*):
Your past life diagnosis:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't know how you feel about it, but you were female in your last earthly incarnation.
You were born somewhere in the territory of modern Center Russia around the year 1450.
Your profession was that of a chemist, alchemist or poison manufacturer.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your brief psychological profile in your past life:
You were a sane, practical person, a materialist with no spiritual consciousness. Your simple wisdom helped the weaker and the poor.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The lesson that your last past life brought to your present incarnation:
Your lesson is to conquer jealousy and anger in yourself and then in those who will select you as their guide. You should understand that these weaknesses are caused by fear and self-regret.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you remember now?

UPDATES
so much to do, so little time. i'm still behind in my crim and consti readings, and to make matters worse, i wasn't able to get my new readings in persons. i was hoping that i'll be able to locate them online, but so far, i've been unsuccessful. i have no idea where to find them on the internet and i've tried everything i know.
found an online law dictionary and i also put it up on my site so i can use it right away. blockmates, you can also use it if you want to. well, that is, if you go here or if you even know about this site. *lol*
when i fix this up more (read: make it less of a template and give it a more personal touch), i'd probably tell other people about this site. the keyword is when.
OOH, I DIDN'T KNOW I COULD DO THIS
You have a mysterious kiss. Your partner never
knows what you're going to come up with next;
this creates great excitement and arousal never
knowing what to expect. And it's sure to end
in a kiss as great as your mystery.
What kind of kiss are you?
brought to you by Quizilla
wow, if this works, this is going to be the first pick i have on this site.
jam has recently gone quiz-crazy the last couple of days. expect more in the coming days. anyhoo, hee, didn't know i had such a mysterious kiss. i have a bum knee but i sure, as hell, didn't know anything about mysterious kisses. *lol*
yup, that's right, i'm missing class for the second straight day, all because of knee problems. hafta make up for all the classes i missed when i get back to school.
NEW STUFF
put in a guestbook today.
finally, there's something other than my thoughts (read: TEXT) in this blog. also added some more links to sites. will add more links when i have the time. i'm still having problems with the font size and layout.
maybe today wasn't really that much of a waste since i was able to put in a chatbox and guestbook and play around with the blog in general. i was hoping that by this time i'd be able to, at least, put some pics, but hey, maybe that would be aiming a little too high.
maybe next time.
i have to start my legal method papers.
BUM KNEE
woke up today to find my right knee all swollen up again.
i ended up sitting on a chair, right leg propped up by another chair with 4-5 icepacks strapped to my knee. i would have gone to school if i had a choice. but i didn't. so here i am, just waiting my knee go numb (well, at least, the pain's going down).
i hope i don't get called in any of my subjects today. pity. i mean, i studied and all for those subjects. anyhoo, well, at least, i got some time to look over html and scripting. i think i'm getting the hang of it. i still don't know how to apply it to blogs because they have their own script variation, but i think i'll get there.
changed the colors of some fonts, added a chatbox (it's only a pop-up though) and added some links. check out explodingdog. it's worth it.
still figuring out how blog script works and how i can edit it. help would be appreciated.
ANNOUNCEMENT
*eherm eherm*
i am now a meteor garden fan. yes, the taiwanese soap opera that has taken asia by storm has also taken over jam. all throughout the weekend, while studying, i have laughed, cringed and cried with and at the characters of MG. *sigh* it's just one of those things you can't resist. MG is up there on the list, beside harry potter and CSI.
ain't life grand?
presently, jam is undergoing therapy and eye treatment to correct the effects of meteor garden subtitle syndrome [MGSS] (that's when you spend over 20 hours staring at the computer screen, watching MG, reading and trying to understand the subtitles, while studying. effects are as follows: double vision, intermittent headaches, involuntary eye twitching, the tendency to just stare at the bottom of the tv screen regardless of what show is one and speaking random chinese words).
SO MANY MOVIES, SO MANY READINGS, SO LITTLE TIME
i got to watch x2 on dvd last night with cam and i liked it.
ok, that was an understatement, i really really liked it. nightcrawler looked great and moved great. by far, one of the best characters in the movie, i'm already looking forward to seeing more of him in the future. the same goes for colossus(i'm not even sure i spelled it right. and here i am telling everyone how big an xmen fan i've been and i can't spell one name right *LOL*) and jubilee. some of the kids in the mansion also seemed familiar - i mean the girl who screamed like a banshee could be the daughter of an xman banshee - well, if i remember the comic book series correctly.
deathstrike was kind of a disappointment. she only got enough airtime to act ignorant (when mystique - once again, i don't remember how to spell a name- got into her office) and to look good (walking around with stryker/striker, smiling every now and then) and dying (fight with wolverine). their fightscene rocked but as yours truly has big problems with sharp objects cutting into skin, i was looking away or covering my eyes at certain points.
pissed off wolverine + claws + lotsa bad guys = more violence = fun. finally, action for wolverine. it's a guy thing.
mystique, i think,is also the most useful mutant i have ever seen in the two movies. she can disguise herself and deceive everyone (appearance and voice), she can fight, she's resourceful, she's smart and street-smart, and she's done nothing but work in the two movies. how can you beat that?
storm was still the ooh-get-me-mad-and-i-will-use-my-powers-on-you-just-stand-and-wait-they-take-a-long-time-to-summon storm of the first movie. i mean, in the time it takes for her to summon her powers, i could have run out, bought a gun, loaded it, eaten lunch, bum around, then shot her. well, i exaggerate but i don't understand why her enemies just stand around when she uses her powers - really funny actually. but i like her. maybe more on her next time.
more on x2 next time.
i've been online for the past hour or so and all i've done is try and get myself up to date. social and entertainment lives have all but virtually stopped since i started the schoolyear. anyway, i just wanted to list down the movies i want to watch so i could just check back here when i do find the time to watch them.
movies that have been shown already (but i didn't get to see)
1. the hulk - contains, according to those who have seen it, the most adorable hulk ever. and by that i mean cute.
2. harry potter 2: chamber of secrets - yes, i profess to be an HP fan but i still haven't watched the second movie. sad.
3. austin powers 3 - hey, they told me it was funny.
4. amelie
movies to watch out for
1. 28 days later - apocalyptic stuff + zombies are always cool.
2. the debut - film about filipinos in america.
3. van helsing - hugh jackman vs. frankenstein's monster, the wolfman and, of course, dracula.
4. pirates of the caribbean - i just have to see this. let's see how good the elf is at being a pirate.
5. troy - i'm a sucker for these kinds of movies.
6. HP movies - of course!
7. the return of the king - this, of course, needs no further explanation.
8. tomb raider 2 - when games cross over to movies, you watch. enough said.
9. matrix revolutions - i can't wait.
10. freddy vs. jason - bescause no matter how bad it is, i just have to see it.
right now i can't think of other movies i would like to watch..i'd probably add more next time.
right now, i have to think of all my readings. yes, that's right, jam will be sifting through cases and articles for a majority of this saturday morning.
pathetic.
