KOLEHIYALA NA AKO! :)
Graduation Day: One of the most fulfilling days of my teenage life and the happiest day of my senior year.
Finally, All the hardships are paid off. Its a bittersweet ending but we all know that this is a new beginning for us. A new path for us to take and another opportunity to make memories and histories. I will miss the people that made my high school life complete, I will miss Seniors IX.
I don't have much to say, Kudos to EVERYONE for a job well done!

I've been eating banana ever since. Banana is one of my favorite fruits. I love its taste and the health benefits it gives my system. I researched the health benefits of banana and look what I've found:
Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose - combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy. Research has proved that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes.
A banana can help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must for our daily diet.
Depression: According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND among people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, one of the twenty common "amino acids" that make up all proteins that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.
PMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.
Anemia: High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.
Blood Pressure: This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it the perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.
Brain Power: 200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.
Constipation: High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.
Hangovers: One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.
Heartburn: Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.
Morning Sickness: Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.
Mosquito bites: Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.
Nerves: Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system.
Overweight and at work: Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and crisps. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady.
Ulcers: The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronic ulcer cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.
Temperature control: Many other cultures see bananas as a "cooling" fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand, for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.
Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD): Bananas can help SAD sufferers because they contain the natural mood enhancer, tryptophan.
Smoking: Bananas can also help people trying to give up smoking. The B6, B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.
Stress: Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the heartbeat, sends oxygen to the brain and regulates your body's water balance. When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels. These can be re-balanced with the help of a high-potassium banana snack.
Strokes: According to research in "The New England Journal of Medicine", eating bananas as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death by strokes by as much as 40%"
Warts: Those keen on natural alternatives swear that if you want to kill off a wart, take a piece of banana skin and place it on the wart, with the yellow side out. Carefully hold the skin in place with a plaster or surgical tape!
See, Bananas do wonders! From now on, You should include banana in your every meal. :)

The start of my SUMMER.
Avida Towers, Paranaque
April 08-09 2009
My friends Nathaniel C., Jacqueline P.,Jetch V., Sean N. and my babe, Lloyd and I stayed overnight at our condominium at Sucat,Paranaque with my mom and her friends. Oh diba, di nagpatalo mom ko, her friends also stayed overnight together with us. Hahaha. Our condo is completely empty. Only few chairs were there. So mom and I brought sleeping blankets and some pillows, Steamer for foods, water heater, dvd player, laptop, foods and the like. Anything that we can use for our overnight.
We all decided to meet at Mcdo, Banawe. The most convenient rendesvouz for all of us. Mom and my childhood friend, Maika was with me. I told her that some of my friends will be riding with her and some of them will be riding with me in a taxi but she insisted that we can all fit in in our red lancer. Eight of us rode our red lancer all the way to our Condo. Imagine, Mom is Driving, Maika and I are in the front seat. While five of my friends tried to fit in at the back seat. Funny right? hahaha.
We arrived not before sun down. We went to the penthouse to enjoy the scenery of paranaque and went to the mall to buy some drinks and utensils. Strolled around and had fun. We went back to the unit and prepared for our night swimming. Everything was fun. The night swimming was a blast. We had an open forum before our meal and learned some random facts about my friends.Our first meal was great. I enjoyed every bit of it not because of the food but because of the closeness that we all have after the meal, Everyone had a great shower.
We finished washing up at around 2am and went up the penthouse. It was creepy. Something happened. We all felt something strange but then the view upstairs was nice and the wind was cool. We went back to the unit and watched a movie. We slept at around 4am while mosquitoes are having their siesta time on us. Hahaha.
The next day came. The morning sunshine awaken us. We all ate cup noodles for our breakfast. Watched movies, played psp, heart attack, 123 pass and talked about random stuffs. My grandma and my siblings came. They brought food for us. We ate and got ready for another dip in the pool. We overstayed. We finished swimming sun down. We ate our dinner, took a shower and got ready for our trip back to our homes.
I had fun with my friends. It is the first time that my friends had an overnight at our place and I really want to thank my mom for being very accommodating and caring. I really appreciate it. I love you mom! You're the best! :)

Baccalaureate Mass.
Recognition Day.
3-6pm.
Angelicum College GYM
April 03, 2009
Senior Ball.
6-12mn
Celebrity Plaza
April 03,2009
Three major events all happened on the same day and close time intervals.
Baccalaureate Mass. Its our thanksgiving mass. The last mass that we have had attended for our senior year. Everyone solemnly prayed and thanked our Dear God for surpassing all the hardships and pains that high school life had brought us and the Joy and the laughter that keep us wanting for more.
Recognition Day. The awarding ceremony. Many were overjoyed but some were depressed and disappointed for they have assumed that the award will be theirs. Over all event was great but a little bit boring but it was good.
Senior Ball. The best night of senior year. The event that everyone waited for. The program was boring but still, thanks to the Senior Council who exerted much effort on it. The outcome was good but it should have been better.Can I say something about the place? Okay, The place was great. I love the staircase and also the chandeliers. The waiters and waitresses were accommodating and attentive but the food wasn't that good. It didn't tasted well. So much for criticizing.
The Hosts announced " The dance floor is ours!" Everyone danced to the beat of the fast songs. Showdown began. Everyone went ecstatic but melded when the beat of slow song was tuned.
" Lets take it slow, So slow. " Who wouldn't want to dance with that kind of slow song? The first dance were surely memorable for everyone. My first dance was my best friend, My current love, Lloyd Frilles. He was my date. :) I've danced with some guy friends whom I shared memorable moments during my high school year. I will probably admit that the dance that was really especial to me next to the dance I had with my date was the Last dance I had with my former love, Charles Gaw. He was bitter to me the past few days and I wouldn't allow him to do that for the rest of the time. :)) We talked and reconciled about everything. I said sorry for all the things I've done wrong and we are now friends again but he's still mad and bitter to Lloyd. It was good that we talked because closure is what I wanted before everything ends. He somehow became a big part of my life and high school life.
One of the highlights of my night, the most memorable one, was while I was still dancing with Charles, He asked Charles if he could dance with me. Imagine the tension I felt that moment. I was stunned. I didnt know what to say and what to do for a split second of time. I was shocked. Imagine, He had the courage to do that, I asked him why, He told me that he cant stand it anymore, He cant stand the feeling of seeing me and my ex boyfriend together, dancing and enjoying. Imagine an ex boyfriend and a soon to be boyfriend. A former love and a Current love.
After party was even great. We spent overnight at Basco's house. Jaq, Sean, Nathaniel, Ralph, Lloyd and I stayed at Basco's house until afternoon the next day. We Watched movies and Had fun. :)
We were super cared by Basco's mom. Even I know that she wont be reading this, I want to thank her for the care she had given us. The breakfast was great! Hahaha.
April 3,2009 is the most memorable day for me.

Senior Ball.
6-12mn
Celebrity Plaza
April 03,2009
Three major events all happened on the same day and close time intervals.
Baccalaureate Mass. Its our thanksgiving mass. The last mass that we have had attended for our senior year. Everyone solemnly prayed and thanked our Dear God for surpassing all the hardships and pains that high school life had brought us and the Joy and the laughter that keep us wanting for more.
Recognition Day. The awarding ceremony. Many were overjoyed but some were depressed and disappointed for they have assumed that the award will be theirs. Over all event was great but a little bit boring but it was good.
Senior Ball. The best night of senior year. The event that everyone waited for. The program was boring but still, thanks to the Senior Council who exerted much effort on it. The outcome was good but it should have been better.Can I say something about the place? Okay, The place was great. I love the staircase and also the chandeliers. The waiters and waitresses were accommodating and attentive but the food wasn't that good. It didn't tasted well. So much for criticizing.
The Hosts announced " The dance floor is ours!" Everyone danced to the beat of the fast songs. Showdown began. Everyone went ecstatic but melded when the beat of slow song was tuned.
" Lets take it slow, So slow. " Who wouldn't want to dance with that kind of slow song? The first dance were surely memorable for everyone. My first dance was my best friend, My current love, Lloyd Frilles. He was my date. :) I've danced with some guy friends whom I shared memorable moments during my high school year. I will probably admit that the dance that was really especial to me next to the dance I had with my date was the Last dance I had with my former love, Charles Gaw. He was bitter to me the past few days and I wouldn't allow him to do that for the rest of the time. :)) We talked and reconciled about everything. I said sorry for all the things I've done wrong and we are now friends again but he's still mad and bitter to Lloyd. It was good that we talked because closure is what I wanted before everything ends. He somehow became a big part of my life and high school life.
One of the highlights of my night, the most memorable one, was while I was still dancing with Charles, He asked Charles if he could dance with me. Imagine the tension I felt that moment. I was stunned. I didnt know what to say and what to do for a split second of time. I was shocked. Imagine, He had the courage to do that, I asked him why, He told me that he cant stand it anymore, He cant stand the feeling of seeing me and my ex boyfriend together, dancing and enjoying. Imagine an ex boyfriend and a soon to be boyfriend. A former love and a Current love.
After party was even great. We spent overnight at Basco's house. Jaq, Sean, Nathaniel, Ralph, Lloyd and I stayed at Basco's house until afternoon the next day. We Watched movies and Had fun. :)
We were super cared by Basco's mom. Even I know that she wont be reading this, I want to thank her for the care she had given us. The breakfast was great! Hahaha.
April 3,2009 is the most memorable day for me.

Real Name: Mary Angelbelle S. Dizon
Age: 17
Birth Date: September 19, 1992
School: Centro Escolar University
Course: Dentistry
I am Mary Angel but call me Ella. My BLOG documents my Bittersweet Life as a University Student, an intimidating Friend, a Loving Daughter, a Sweet Girlfriend and an Independent G I R L. This is my Web Journal where in all my thoughts, craves, rants and happenings in my life are posted. Constructive Criticism are highly appreciated! ♥
University Student ○ I am currently taking up DENTISTRY which is one of the difficult and the most expensive majors. At first, It was hard dealing with college life, the subjects along with the lessons and its quizzes and projects and of course, the professors and the grades, block mates and the school itself. but as the days go by all the pressure and pleasure, fun, hardships, trials and updates about being a College Student have a sense of fulfillment in the end! :)
Intimidating Friend ○ What is Friend? For me Friend is someone you have that knows how to deal with your drama in life. Someone who accepts you for who you are, Someone who isn't afraid of telling you your wrong doings, Someone who will never turn their back in spite of your mood swings and attitude problems. Someone who will always settle things with you. That's how I define FRIEND. You? How do you define FRIENDSHIP?
Loving Daughter ○ I love my family so much. They are the foundation of my own self. I am the eldest among the family. At this point of time, Pressure of being the eldest do not conquer me, YET. When I was younger, my grandmother nurtured me and took care of me when my Mom was away and still, nurturing and taking care of me at this point of time even Mom is already here for us. I owe my grandmother so much. Though I was spoiled by her in many ways and sometimes unintentionally made things difficult for her because of my wrong doings I still go back and make it up to her. She became a Mother, a Father and a Grandmother to me all at the same time. She's my inspiration in life.
Sweet Girlfriend ○ Oh yes, I am into a long term relationship right now, with my Best Friend. You read it right. Best Friends turned Lovers. Being in love with your best friend is good and easy and being in a relationship with your Best friend isn't better but the BEST! Friendship is a very good foundation of LOVE and I am very much happy to have a relationship with friendship as a foundation but of course, just like any love, Trials and Challenges still come along our way but everything's worth it.
Mary Angelbelle Dizon.
My Dad once told me how they got my name. He said, When mom was laboring, He prayed to Mama Mary and the Angels for Mom's guidance. That's how I got, Mary Angel, from Mama Mary and the Angels and the Belle? Well, Dad said he got that from Mom's name: Bel.
Yes I know, I have a very long name. Haha.
Ella.
For the obvious fact that I have a very long name, I had difficulty choosing a name to call me, a nickname. Before it was Belle, then it turned to Elle and finally, I settled for one, ELLA. I love that name ever since. It was hard convincing people to call me Ella because they are all used to call me ANGEL but I know they'll get used to it. :)

It was really hard because I was always misunderstood by people and sadly, my own friends for giving him hard time and extreme difficulties and for the fact that my grandmother wont approve to our relationship that time made it all worst but later, my grandmother did understood me.

Its all because of FRIENDSHIP! The foundation of your love is friendship. I tell you, In a relationship like this you have to be open and optimistic. Just like any relationship, this also have downfalls but if you think ahead and look into the brighter side you can surpass anything that gets into your way.
