The Princess Diaries
Because I'm Tumblring right now, I'm bored to infinity, and I haven't updated my blog for two weeks because of school, I'm sharing this beautiful quotation to all of you.

Cleverbot vs. Katy Perry

As seen in the image above, Cleverbot does not like Zooey Deschanel's carbon copy at all.

I swear we were infinite
How I wish I could grab a copy of The Perks of Being A Wallflower by summertime. I entitled this entry like that out of randomness. So here are some things that have happened the past week:


  • Thursday was Oral Defense Day. I thought it was difficult but it turned out to be easier than expected. Thank you groupmates and queue cards. BTW, I slept close to midnight just to memorize and fully understand the material. Now I'm feeling the college hype.
  • I browsed a Facebook page for the Big 3 universities (UP, ADMU, DLSU) and clinched at the admission rate for the next school year. Can you believe that there were more applicants in La Salle than in Ateneo last year? DLSU accepted only 3,000 out of 27,000 hopefuls while ADMU welcomed 2,700 out of 13,000. Now instead of whining that I won't be a Blue Eagle while everyone else is, I should be thankful for being one of the few who got the chance to study in a very prestigious and competitive university.
  • We finally found out the theme for Seniors' Night: CANDYLAND! Everyone was disappointed at first because we wanted Vintage Barbie as our theme. However in compliance with the school's theme, the committee voted on Candyland instead. I've got a costume in mind already. I'll be dressing up as a little kid :) If you want me to visualize the March 18 party, here's a sneak peek:

The Candydoll Files Is A "Versatile Blog!"
Nadine gave me this special award - a very first for The Candydoll Files! I'd like to thank her for this honor. Now I feel like winning an Oscar for Best Actress!



To accept the Versatile Blogger Award there are some rules to follow:

1. Thank and link back the person who gave you the award.
2. Share 7 things about yourself.
3. Pass it along to 7 blogs you've recently discovered and enjoy.
4. Leave your recipients a note, telling them about the award.

So here are some seven teeny facts about me:
  1. This blog was originally named Glittery and Candi-coated. 
  2. I dislike American Idol. Sorry to all fans but I think David Archie is the most overrated Idol contestant ever. I find him more over than Bieber.  He's one of the runner-ups on Earth I cannot stand because he's getting more attention than he deserves. I guess he's being overtaken now by other Idol contestants (especially Lambert although I'm not really a fan of his).
  3. I like Quinn Fabray more than Rachel Berry, Blair Waldorf more than Serena van der Woodsen and Brooke Davis more than Peyton Sawyer.
  4. I hate tween stars here in the Philippines. Looking at the tween actresses make me want to form a loveteam with a hot guy or try to look like them.
  5. Back in fifth grade, I only have one staple fashion outfit: a hoodie.
  6. I suddenly took an interest in posing for the camera when I was in first year HS. :)
  7. Sometimes I want to turn my Windows XP desktop into a Mac.
So to these seven amazing bloggers, you're receiving this award courtesy of yours truly! :D

Happy First Birthday, Tumblr!
Once upon a time, I was @lilmissdramaaa and I only had 100 followers. This screenshot was captured on January of this year. Back then, I was a neophyte to this microblogging website named Tumblr. Back then, Facebook, Twitter and Blogspot were my only Internet hangouts. But how did my life in the like-and-reblog universe began? It's traced back to October 28, 2009, the day my Tumblelog with seven URL changes was born.

Several Theresians already owned an account when I first started. Before the fateful October day, I created a Tumblr five times then deleted my blog after five dashing minutes. In the beginning, I thought Tumblr isn't very easy to use and it's just a competitor to blogging platforms LiveJournal and Xanga. After several times, I struck gold when I named my blog as @candicecandice. Well, duh. It's my Tumblr, I'm Candice and I own it. Now I'm David Karp. What was the next step? I followed my schoolmates and reblogged their most recent posts. I checked out Teentalk's Tumblr thread and followed them. It was the onset of the infamous Tumblarity when I made an account. I was stuck with zilch. I clicked the link. After a week of Tumblring, I was shocked to see that I only had two followers. What did I do? I keep on following and reblogging. So the flock of followers came along.

It was on Tumblr I discovered Rage Guy, Forever Alone, Okay Guy and all the fantastic indie bands. I shared my layout-tweaking skills there. I earned more friends and gained the interest of people who like the same things as mine. I learned the decorum of blogging. I gained and lost followers. I got reblogged and posted original things with notes as a bonus. I encountered several issues such as the much-hated "Tumblr Famous" label (of course there's none). I found out what it's like to have anons on Tumblr Ask and they leave you all these messages of insecurity and envy.

At first, I was envious of the Tumblr users who have 1000 followers. A year later, 1200+ people have my posts on their dashboards. The secret? Follow interesting blogs, post great stuff, be friendly, share your talents.

Happy birthday to my Tumblelog. You're thebest. Thanks for all of the entertainment! >:D<
