I am Beatriz Kho, a 19 year old graduating BS Psychology student from De La Salle University-Manila, hoping to enter med school this 2011.

I am a bassist, been a member of the school's official orchestra (DLSU Pops Orchestra and Lasallian Youth Orchestra) since the start of my university education. I am more inclined towards traditional methods of bass playing and vintage (1930's to 1970's) music.

Also, I've been engaged in various video games since my childhood. I enjoy RPGs and horror action adventure the most. I own and have played most gaming consoles except the XBOX and Game Cube.

Yes, i am aware that people who seem to stumble upon my blog might think that I'm not as substantial as I actually am. Well, I just choose NOT to blog everything about my personal life and inner thoughts. You'd need more than that to get to know me. ;)

All streets lead to Hollywood.: My thoughts while at school.

• I hate you.
• And you.
• And you.
• Shut the hell up.
• You’re an idiot.
• Why am I here?
• Stop talking.
• I hate you, too.
• You’re annoying.
• Shut up.
• Why are you talking?
• SHUT.
• UP.
• And you, I hate you, too.
• Oh look, my ex-best friend.
• I need to get out of here.
• What time is it?
• I wonder what my mom is making to eat.

We Should All Be So Amazing of the Day: Sensei Keiko Fukuda, the last surviving student of Judo founder Kanō Jigorō, has officially been promoted to the rank of 10th dan — the highest black-belt degree in her sport — becoming the first woman to reach the rank, and only the sixteenth person to achieve it since the martial art was founded in 1882.

Oh, and did I mention Fukuda is 98 years old?

“All my life,” Fukuda, who started practicing judo in 1935, said, “this has been my dream.”

Fukuda is no stranger to breaking barriers. In 1972, following a letter campaign to reverse the longstanding rule prohibiting women from rising above 5th dan (which kept her at the same level for nearly two decades), she became the first woman promoted to 6th dan.

And she’s not done yet: Fukuda continues to teach judo three times a week at a women’s dojo in Noe Valley.
