You probably know I have classes already from my older post…

In English, we are learning about the Writing Process. Tomorrow, we have to write a short story. (

The Writing Process

Enough about my classes – I’ve watched two action movies in a row. It’s weird. XD

I guess that’s all I have to say… See you!

Ally

Ok.

Awesome is probably the wrong choice of word, but I wasn’t able to think up of any.

So, why does a lot of people like Facebook so much? I asked myself that question when I didn’t have a Facebook account myself (and most people around me had one… I think my parents didn’t have one, too XD)…

I guess one reason of it being so popular is because of all those game, quizzes, and apps. (this isn’t the most important reason, though… )

First Reason:

 

All those apps, games, and others… It just makes socializing much more fun doesn’t it?

 

Being able to play games and compete with either friends or strangers can be really fun, right? XD

 

Another reason might be because it’s so easy to share things. Just type something down and everyone will be able to know what you’re feeling, you can quickly upload a picture you think is interesting, and you can even like stuff.

Second Reason:

 

Being able to share things quickly makes it easier for people to see what you’re doing. If you think something in Facebook is interesting, you simply like and share it, and your friends will see it, too!

 

And, finally, the last reason may be it being a social networking website (duh). By being able to talk and share stuff with people miles (or not-so-miles) far away makes it easier for people to keep in touch.

Last Reason:

 

It’s a social networking website. People from different countries don’t have to take an airplane to show their friend a picture they took, or some cake they thought really looks good, or they could simply chat. Facebook also makes it easier to find some long-lost friends with the friend finder.

So, I guess that’s the end of my post. I have school soon, so I might not be able to post regularly anymore.

Oh, chocolates…

Don’t you just love them?

So, anyway – I’m really sorry I haven’t posted for weeks! (have I?) It’s just that I’m spending my few more days of summer out and all, and… Well, I haven’t used the computer for about two days for that reason.

I don’t mean out as in “in the beach” or “out of town” or even “out of country”. No, I meant that I went out my house to hang out with my friends. Simple.

Well, anyway, don’t you just love chocolates?

To those who don’t, I wouldn’t know why you don’t like the yummy stuff, but I bet you have a good excuse not to…

Hey, do you know the Foosball (Kinda like football, but it’s on a table) Table?

Well, here’s a photo, I guess… XD

Took this when I went to the beach for my younger sister’s birthday…

Oh, right now I’m reading Tunnels (a best-selling book). It’s really good, and well… Yeah, try reading it.

At first, I didn’t like it and almost regretted that I had chose it. When I kept reading, though, it just became interesting.

Hey guys,

I haven’t published a post for more than a week (ten days, I think?) because I wasn’t able to think of anything to write, so…

Well, they say pictures are worth a thousand words, so I’ll be posting a couple of images below and all…

This one I took when I was outside my house. It's some rocks and grass, and I selected only the green color (meaning only green would be shown).

I took this because I liked the lighting. We were in the parking lot outside the groceries.

A "No Parking" sign. XD

A ride I rode with my cousins and sister.

That's my younger sister, Chia.

Some people's silhouettes...

A pencil... XD

(

Well, not really… Other than my sister and two other people, I’m alone in my house.

OK, I admit, that’s not being alone.

But my whole family, other than my sister, went out to the office and left me here, with my dad saying he’d come back for us…

I think we’ve waited for more than 30 minutes.

And still waiting.

So, anyway, I’m really sorry for not posting in days. I was really busy… But I’m here now…

So, here are some pictures I took of Ysa’s (used-to-be-mine) ever-so-sad stuffed toy named… Well, Ysa never bothered to name him.

The one above is kind of dark, but at least you can see his eyes… XD

Yup, there's a watermark... ^.^

My post for today, I guess. I’ll see another time!

-Ally

How do you feel?

There’s many meanings for that.

The most popular is it itself.

But, sometimes, it could mean another thing. It could be used as an expression, I guess. For example, by judging a person by what they look like and their attitude, you’re actually judging a book by it’s cover.

And it’s not right.

There might be a woman in this street, pulling her daughter along her so harshly. You think ‘That woman is mean…‘

But, actually, the daughter might have done something wrong for her mom to be mad. There’s a similar story in The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens where a woman bought some cookies and she had sat down beside this man. She ate a cookie and was angry when she found the man eating her cookies. The man just smiled. After she left, she found her cookies in her bag. So she was actually eating his cookies! )

So, yeah… Just some thoughts and all…

Anyway, you should check out The 7 Habits of Effective Teens. It really helps.

-Ally

P.S. Don’t you like cookies? XD

The title might have caught your attention.

After going to the Feast (like we always do every Sunday), we went to this huge ship that goes all around the world and occasionally visits the Philippines. There’s this really huge book fair inside where they claim they have a whooping five thousand (is it?) titles. Awesome, right? Unfortunately, most of these books weren’t really what I was hoping for.

Logos Hope - the floating library

I think (yes, I think – I am not sure) the reason it’s called the floating library is because most of the ship (well, probably not most, since it’s really big – I meant most of the ship that we are allowed to get in) consists of the book fair and that it’s a ship, which floats in water (Ok, lame explanation. XD). The book fair was made of mostly the front of the boat, or that’s what it looked like in the map.

The Map

I wasn’t really able to take much pictures inside since it was really crowded, and I admit I was distracted by all of the books inside. )

Anyway, I was able to get this Digital Photography book. We also went to this restaurant where we ate next to Manila Bay before going to the Logos Hope. There were these men fishing, but usually caught trash. There were lots of birds, too!

How’s your weekend?

-Ally

I probably owe you an apology… )

I haven’t been posting for a few days, and it’s for a couple of reasons. Earlier, I wasn’t able to since I went out to do… something.

So, anyway, I have been reading the first book of Warriors (a book about cats), and it’s really awesome. The cats in this book are fierce, and the protagonist is really… brave. You should (if you haven’t, already) try reading it.

The First Book of Warriors

You should check out the website, though, for the order of the books.

Well, I know this might be a really short post, but I will end it here. Good night!

Yummy Jelly... or is it?

What is Jelly?

Jelly (or gelatin) is many things. You could be talking about gelatin, a dessert, or something that can swim.

The one I’ll talk about here is gelatin and the dessert.

How is it made?

I’ve always wondered what jelly was made of. The answer is weird and plain… disgusting.

The only clue I will tell you is that if you’re a vegetarian, do not eat anything with gelatin.

Why?

Because…

You can see some more about it here.

How about Jellyace?

Of course, there are other ways to make some jelly, so jellyace is still ok to eat (if you’re avoiding gelatin).
