How Urban Dictionary defined my name

I was browsing through my old posts in Multiply (yes, I still update my Multiply once in a while) one afternoon when I came upon my post about Urban Dictionary. Most of you might be familiar with this site. According to my trusted buddy named Wikipedia

Urban Dictionary is aWeb-based dictionary of slang words and phrases, which contains over 6½ million definitions as of March 2012. Submissions are regulated by volunteer editors and rated by site visitors.

I find this site to be amusing. The definitions were usually hilarious, depending on the word you're searching for. Based on my Multiply post 3 years ago, I searched for the meaning of my whole name... and here it is:

Maria
1. The most sexy girl you will ever meet, known to blow the minds of many men. Extremely talented and beautiful, eyes cut from stars.

Sample sentence: The song. "Maria.. I just met a girl named Maria." 

 

Oh wow, I'm actually SEXYYY! Oh wait, it actually says the MOST sexy. Thank you Urban Dictionary. I love you for this! Hahahaha

 

2. The Women On Those Mexican Breast Boosting Pill Commercials. Maria Was Once Not Pretty Due To Her Small Breast Size. She Is Currently Every Guys Fantasy After Taking Pill To Boost Her Breasts

Danny: Damn Who Is That?
Ixia: Thats Maria The One You Didn't Like
Danny: But What She Do To Herself
Ixia: She Boosted Her Breast
Danny: WOW!!!

 

"Maria was once not pretty due to her small breast size" Thank you for the emphasis. HAHA

 

 

 

Czarina

 

- A butt face who is a big whore and grinds on guys. She is a backstabbing girl who has boy problems. She thinks she's all that, but she really is an UGLY unkind girl.

 

Sample sentence: "Ew, look at that czarina! I would NEVER want to be friends with her."

 

Uh-oh. Whoever made this definition must have an enemy named Czarina. Hehehe

 

Camille

the most beautifulest girl alive
she makes every guys jaw drop
she has many different features to her
1. an amazing body
2. a gorgeous smile
3. eyes of an angels

 

The man could not take his eyes off of Camille.

 

 

Woah. They also forgot to include "perfect height with modelesque stature". That included, it could've been a perfect definition of me................. Just kidding! That is actually me day dreaming. Haha I actually wish these definitions applies to me though. Hehehe

 

Salazar

a breakdancer in Dressed 2 Kill crew

  I only dance to the tune of Macarena.

 

 

Have you noticed how long my name is? My parents gave me a hard time learning to write my name during nursery/kindergarten days. Haha Now if you are curious on how Urban Dictionary defined your name, try visiting the site and search for yours. Have fun! :)

Mobile blogging: Lazy with Mockingjay

For some reason, I felt too lazy to finish reading Mockingjay. I've been reading the book for 2 weeks now but I'm still not done. Compared to The Hunger Games which I finished reading for one day. I don't know, maybe this third book is not  as interesting as the other two. I can't wait to finish this because I still have other books lined up to read! Haha

Anyway, this post is so random. Right now, I can't sleep. I downloaded blogger on my phone and tried mobile blogging! Yay! :) I think I might try to do this more often. Tata! :)

Cousin's Graduation at NV!

Time indeed flies so fast. Two years ago, I remember wearing my toga and marching along the aisle with my fellow nursing batch mates and going up the stage to claim my diploma. After years of sleepless nights reviewing for major exams, stressful (long) quizzes for almost every subject everyday, agitating return demonstrations, dark circles around your eyes, finally the long wait is over. Graduation day is undoubtedly a memorable day in a student's life.

Just last week, my Aunt from Nueva Vizcaya called inviting us to attend my cousin's graduation! Yayyy! My cousin Raechelle took up BS Nursing too so I'm extra-proud and extra-excited for her. :) Our whole family went to Nueva Vizcaya (which is my mom's hometown) on Thursday evening and after 9 long hours of travel, we finally arrived at around 7 in the morning. Ahhhhhh! Finally a breath of fresh air! I always loved being in the province. It's sooo relaxing! And of course I get to see my cousin's, lola, aunts and uncles again (mother's side).

The next day, Saturday is my cousin's graduation which is very early! The ceremony will start at 7am! Everyone's up and very busy preparing the foods for later's party.

Yuuuummmm!

My younger cousins prepared something for her too.... cupcakes and a fail chocolate cake!!

In the afternoon, my now newly-graduate cousin finally arrived and she looked prettywith her hair-do and make up too! :)

Now, for the family picture! :)

What's so good about celebrations in the province is that everyone is welcome to eat! Neighbors popped out everywhere to enjoy the foods prepared, invited or not. :) The celebration went out well. Everyone went home with full bellies! Hehe Happy Graduation, Chelle! :)

ASUS Zenbook Prime

Having been invited to an event that involves gadgets is what I need right now. Don't get me wrong. I'm far from being techie. My main reason is that my laptop for 6 years now has recently gave up on me. The big and heavy laptop who served me for years and has been my partner to connect with the virtual world is not functioning anymore. I hope you could all hear the regret in my voice.

Last May 28, ASUS unveiled their newest Ultrabook: the ASUS Zenbook Prime. It was held at Opus Bar and Lounge, Resorts World Manila.

I already prepared my self to witness a presentation about technical stuffs that only techie geeks would completely understand. Being a kid who knows too little about gadgets, I know somewhere in the middle of it, I'll get bored. But I was wrong. I found my self all ears as I listen to Mrs. Jamie Zaldivar, ASUS Marketing Manager. She provided the audience with a presentation about the 5 Sense Experience that will bring customer happiness. These consists of Beauty, Sound, Touch, IOIC (Instant On- Instant Connect), and Cloud.

Mrs. Jamie Zaldivar, ASUS Marketing Manager

Beauty delivers uniqueness and elegance with the Asus notebook's new design. Sound features the Asus SonicMaster technology which brings notebook audio to life. With Touch, Asus enlarged the touchpad and provides more smooth multi- gesture with scroll, swipe, rotate, zoom in & out. IOIC (Instant On- Instant Connect) provides solution through 2 seconds resume and up to 2 weeks standby time. Lastly, Cloud provides convenience with the help of MyBitCast App, where users can quickly sync the rotates, photos and audio recording data to various devices at once.

I immediately fell in love with its appearance.

Take a look at the enlarged touchpad.

Keyboard with backlight makes it easier to type in the dark.

I can't wait to save money because this is the perfect one to replace my old, huge and heavy laptop. :)

Diana Stalder: The Promise of a Better You

LIFEHOUSE Live in Manila!

Are you fond of rock music and adore rock bands? If yes, then there's no doubt you very well know Lifehouse!

L-R: Bryce Soderberg (bass guitar), Jason Wade (lead vocals/rhythm guitar), Rick Woolstenhulme Jr. (drums) and  Ben Carey (lead guitar)

Lifehouse is an American rock band which success started when their international hit single "Hanging by a Moment" was released and became the Most Played Song in 2001. This song gave way for the band to be recognized commercially. Other chart-topping hits include You and Me, Blind, Whatever It Takes which were all under MCA music.

Most of us were familiar with the TV series Smallville and Scrubs wherein most of the band's songs were also featured. Everything was used in the series Smallville, All in All in Scrubs while Good Enough was played over the credits of the Disney Film The Wild.

Their latest album, Smoke & Mirrors, debuted at #6 on the Billboard 200 marking the highest chart debut of their 10-year career. It sold 500,000 units in the United States and over two million worldwide, owning the charts for twenty consecutive weeks. Wow.

Before their most-awaited concert on May 26, a press conference was held last May 24 at Garden Room 3, Marriott Manila. The event was hosted by Ms. Cesca Litton.

The band members were all game to answer the questions being asked to them :)

The band's ability to evoke emotions and effectively translate it into a song was what gained them their massive fan base over the years. Their songs were played repeatedly by loyal listeners worldwide and captured the hearts of millions and left them wanting more.:)

And for those who missed the American rock band's concert last July 2008, now is your chance to see them again! LIFEHOUSE is set to perform on Saturday, May 26, 2012 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum. Tickets are available at all Ticketnet outlets or call 911-5555 for more information.
