Miss me?

Well, I do miss posting....buy hey! This lady is pretty busy this past few days...I guess I'll miss the life wherein I would be able to watch the live feeds of Amazing Race and Survivor on tv. The late night sleeping and late waking...the worrie-free life....

Woah! Tabulas added alot of new features! Cool! Um...tabulas getting richer than ever?

There is this one pants (kind of long-board type shorts) I saw at Nothing But Water...I tried out almost all the different designs but ended up buying none. Why? Basically, I look like a 'hobbit' in the outfit! Eww....haha....anyways, for others who love that design, it is available at the store, plus stocks are quickly running out! So reserve and go shop!

<B> Discount Coupons </B>

Are really helpful...why? they give you discounts! Duh! But most of all, i was really eyeing stuff from those stores they are offering discounts, so that is a major plus in my scale!

<B> My internet </B>

has been a pain these past few days....I hate its speed.....

<B> My work </B>

why don't I talk about my work that much? Well, I made a motto to myself that after office or as soon as I escape my hell (yeah, that is my office) I will only speak about heaven...haha...and of course, nothing that concerns about my work. After all, I don't get paid 24/7, and yes, I am also UNDERPAID!

<B> Pants </B>

Guys, I am also selling linen pants, so for anyone who wants to order...contact me! please!

Mixed Emotions

It was really a mixed emotions these past few days...it was the week were I was left alone (all the other Assistants had client call) leaving me to do stuff on my own. And to think I was new, I'm really lost! My boss took us out for lunch since it was his birthday last wed. I thought he was going to bring us somewhere nice and expensive, but then we ended up at MAX fried chicken. For those who love it, I'm not totally against it. It is just that it is not a restaurant of my dreams, or the restaurant I am craving for...hum...makes me want to think about other options and other foods. just be contented that you got to have free lunch! - that was my conscience was saying to me.

This week is the week, where all my blockmates are emailing each other, which was a nice gesture since it has been so long and we miss each others company so much! It was really something I want to go back to...oh college life!!

HERE is a mini interview with my life at work:

1. The thing you miss most in life?
> waking up late, choosing whether or not to go to school or be late. Shopping and eating without counting every cents you have. Just being fun with everyone and not figuring out people.

2. Something different:
> everyone's asking how everyone is doing, whether they are working or not, what kind of business they are into, and alwasy being busy. No more YM life. and internet life...like me!

3. A miss.
> Can't watch live telecast of Survivor and Amazing Race!

Anyways my work is 50% fun and sucks....I guess you can't have both worlds....

I want to go somewhere, but will I be allowed to go? Hum...need to figure it out with my parents....bah-hum.bug! Help me!

And yes it is not yet

100% done. Yup, I know the navigation is not working...but I'm pretty busy so maybe next week.

Dad just got home from Bohol and bought us these cute tarsier-designed pouches as pasalubong it was nice, but I expect more. But he told us it was raining the whole time he went there. Oh, they got VIP treatment because they have connections with the Bohol's top people! Lucky them!

Holy Week

It's Holy Week and I'm going to spend it at home. Sad but true. But I guess, sometimes you just have to reflect and relax at home. It is true that this past few days are the days wherein I first felt the deep exhaustion. It was this week that I felt so sleepy..and at the same time tired. I don't know why this week...maybe all the week I was thinking please make the week end already, after all it is HOLY WEEK ...then we are the last office (i think) to have the day off...we had an early dismissal. What time? 4pm...like it does make a difference?! Duh! Stupid institution.

Oh my gosh, before I forget! I got my J-star magazine which has Tony and Zax as the cover! I am so so thrilled to have receive it, forgive my being Asian-holic! but I love the magazine although I couldn't understand it 100% but the pictures are just too much!! I want more! I want to subscribe to it. I wish! It was delivered straight from Taiwan thanks to my fans club! Thank you thank you!

HOLY WEEK - a lot of people are on the tradition side, but our family? Hum...we take it light and natural. Like it was just a normal day, only a day to rest earlier! or days...hum...I don't believe in not eating pork or meat? I mean, I'm not into the veggie diet...not now, not ever! It is just too hard...I think I'll collapse while trying...haha...it is really hard to do. I mean trying to loose the meat? It is like loosing my addiction to shoes...or shopping! I'll freak out!

Ey...today I went shopping and found two nice top, I was still debating on the last one (third find) I'm still taking my time thinking if I am going to purchase it or not! Hum...not so me...but then, when you are working? You'll start to appreciate and wonder the worth of money...

BEACH BEACH BEACH!! I need a break!

Sad

While you are on vacation...

wow, my friends are on vacation....I'm so jealous. Not because they are on the beach with the sand although it wouldn't hurt to be there too but because I missing some company. The malls are not open, plus I miss out great bargains from afar. Well...as you can see, I am being drawn here at home, with my computer. Although I also miss it so much, since I'm always on work. And I couldn't log on the net from that place we don't have internet you see, only people of higher positions got internethow absurd!

I found a nice haircut to copy...through my taiwan magazine! Now, all i have to do is wait for my hair to grow alittle longers...you see, last Sunday, I went to have a cut...I told the stylist to cut only a bit...and boy! Did she cut it! Ugh...now it is short..although alot of people says it is still long...but of course, shorter than before..

Oh I miss the mall...this is one of those moments wherein a person really is pissed about the conditions at home and then being deprive from the mall, more! Ugh...

MOMENTS PART 1

MOMENTS are some of the things in your life that may never happen again, or might happen again but only for a few times. Maybe you'll even be lucky if it will happen again. In life, we always have moments. Those things that we couldn't forget even though it only happened once... or twice . Those are the things I was thinking and was smiling to my smile on our way home from dinner.

1. Thailand Get-away.
My first time to go there...and with who? My friends! People who I am not even that close with. But it was utterly fun! and total madness. Shopping and eating has never been this fun and sleepy (although we only slept around 4-5 hrs a day). I never thought that in college, I would experience going to other country with my friends! Such an amazing experience. Sometimes, I wish this even could re-repeat itself although I am guessing it will never...as soon as the plane landed here in the philippines, that is the end of that beautiful moment.

2. My 18th Birthday
Given a huge sum of money, a vacation get away, fun with friends, surprises by my friends! and of course, celebrating and being officially 18. It was a moment wherein everything was focus on me , yes, the girl that is sometimes skeptical in life, but always optimistic about things. The girl who loves clothes and shoes more than herself and pocket. The girl who loves to dress up in different personality to find the one that will suite her -- for now. The girl who obssessively shop for books and more books. The 18th birthday that made way for me to become an official woman. Welcome to my womanhood, goodbye to the teen years...

3. Project Days
It happened with different people, different places, different locations, woah...it ended so soon. Looking back at all the events I had experienced in life....doing the project are some of the best things! I love doing those stuff, because not only will you get close to people, you'll know them more and even gain new friendships that you will surely treasure forever. I miss going to different houses, staying up late and just reinventing stuff or inventing new stuff. It was hard not to remember those moments that only came once and made me do a different person rather than who I really am. The acting, the crying, the wasting...

4. Shatan's Birthday
The first debut I attended, then it was the first time also that the block went out together and party in Malate (it was now her second birthday with the block) we went out and dance our heart out...look at the window and you'll see the gay club next door wherein sexy guys are dancing their hearts out in order to make some money...and of course, my gay friend was drooling over some guys too...and me? hum... why not?

5. Never ending love
Unfortunately, this moment in my life has ended...I don't want to talk about it anymore.... I ache so much...pain alot already and given enough...I think this long break that I am having is just for me to pick up the pieces and figure out the things I truly needed in my life. Enough about having a 50% to complete me --100%, I think I am already full. I just need to figure out myself and what I really needed in life.

6. The crazy night at the hotel
When you think you know your friend that well...think again...you know it is true that you'll know alot more things about your friend when they are drunk. Trust me on this. I guess things are just surprising and well, events like this occur, although I am hoping that it would be the last of this kind of moment it was so private and I don't think anyone would like to know more about it. Hum...

*kinda sleepy so this will end the first part of my moments...more to come? Will I handle it? At least I got this posting to let me remember by those some moments...I doubt I will forget...
