Gemini. 5566. China.

The song from Spongecola that I am appreciating right now...why? Maybe becauseteh lyrics is deeper than the song itself.

I finally am hearing 5566's new song - Long Time No See...so cute! The song is refreshing and new to me...once again, my love ones prove to be AMAZING...okay...enuff!!

I just got this info from 5566 website -- New album will soon be promoting on Mainland China next month. There
is a strict rule on Mainland China that prohibit lip sing, those who
violated the act will have their performance permit pulled off,
hence 5566 who have used lip sing on singing fast track songs in the
past, they too have taught of a counter strategy for this situation.


woah!! Who knew that in China if you lip sing you'll be banned forever? Exciting...that should also be a rule here....long live the live singing!! okay..now, it is really enuff!

*Pam - ey they'll be promoting there album their...grab a copy and meet them!!

I'm browsing friendster and saw good pictures of good old friends...hum...when will i see them kaya? You'll really can view a part of their world since you see their photos...wow....I miss people....

A long entry

Hum...where to start? Well, it has been a week of fun,excitement, and of course surprises!

I had training since thursday so I am pretty free much from work. (as if!) there are still alot of stuff I need to do that i have to be early so that i can do my transactions earlier.

And in the spirit of work...I want to scream at one of the client who is kind only when she needs something, but when she isn't? Damn be to her!! Damn. I hate those kind of people VERY PLASTIC. I hate working at where i am working right now...I just hope i can go away...away from here and just be happy at where-else.

This weekend I've seen: Brother's Grimm, The Cave, and Red Eye. All of it was great, I personally love Red Eye for the suspense of the story and how amazing the writer made the story. It was just like the "Phone-booth" ...stuck in one place and still the storyline was smooth and amazingly incredible...got to watch it!! Rachel Adams was amazing.

Brother's Grimm however is a more thriller-sweet-bitter story...combine Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, Cinderella, Snow White, Ginger Bread, plus more...it was funny because the storyline was serious yet it involves the works of the Grimm's brother...expect a part 2 (i think)

The Cave was a okay movie, the story was fast-paced so it wasn't boring, I just felt a little headache while the camera is moving..it was moving 24/7 so confusing...

Hum..the weekend was a week of food fest...Saturday I went with my sister and ate at Kenny Rogers (you know how thrift you get when you don't have your parents moolah?) but we both love to eat there because it has been a while since we ate there and I miss the chicken. Then also had OREO CHEESECAKE from Starbucks and shakes from Big Chill. The next day was a buffet from Q.C. sports club then at night BURGOO! My gawd...I told myself I will be on diet...DAMN!!!

Pam left already, so me and elaine got to recruit a new person! We have to change Pam..haha...j/k...I was wondering the movie house there..in english or chinese? Ey...5566 will be at Shen Zhen this Sept 27 to 28..check them out if you can..padala ka naman here ng mga 5566 merchandise...cge na!! Plus clothes ha!! Don't forget me (i know u wont!) haha.... ingat there!

P.S. advance Happy Birthday cherry!! Have more blessings and God Bless!!

Brush with money.

Too much temptation...

I've been waiting for it for so long...the bazaar that happened yesterday at La Pavillon, well...it was too much a comfort for me. While pamela is having "no-shopping-clothes" day at China, I was having loads of "shopping-days" Darn! I am really bankcrupt.

Today, I went out with my cousins to watch Dark Water, it was not that scary at all...actually it was bitin because the parts where you think there is something scary? Well, nothing will happen. Darn! Thought I'll be so scared.

Of course with watching comes shopping and boy did I shop for shoes and more clothes. Darn! Again!

I wasn't able to attend the 4th GA of Funland. Darn! I felt like I was going to win today...too bad, maybe next time again...

Friday was a party at the office, we had a dice game late afternoon...and guess what? I won the 1st and 2nd prize! It wasn't too much but at least the Php75 I donated went back to me. Darn! It was only a pitcher and hershey's (be contented joanna!)

Anyways, I'm just updating my blog..too lazy to even put more...adios amigos!

A Long Long Story

Update on my Internet life and duties: It sucks that I have to close Fashaholic (temporarily, I hope) due to my career and busy life. As if! Actually this “ber” months have been so busy and hectic, every weekend I’m not home. Then every weekday I’m at work or I came home late from work, then I need to do something else. Which left me utterly a lost track of time hence forgetting to update the site. I’m thinking of fully making it a fashion blog since it is easier to update, or a fashion blog/mag – which for me means, a fashion with a few articles now and then. But I need to keep it up, if only I have Internet access here in the office (Yeah, we don’t and it is just plain unfair!) I could update the magazine and look out for fresh new articles. Sadly, we don’t have so, the time that I’m not doing much (like this time) is just a waste. But thank God I do keep my blog because I enjoy reading people’s thought and stories. I miss my friend so by reading her blog, I can at least feel her presence. Email is the real way to communicate or it the Friendster now? (Haha…) Pictures of people will make you smile and proud that you know them or that you had loathed them.

Update on my office life and responsibilities: It has been awhile since I wrote a true-to-life story of my office life. I know a lot of you miss it (right?) So here goes…what’s up? Been to a fight or two (although it was only verbal)…cried over something I know I was innocent and didn’t feel any guilt about. But what can I do? I am just too emotional. I cry over a novel, movie, even a poem or a line. That is my by the way… strong on the outside but soft in the inside! Oh, another person went by in my presence. Move on because the officers are just not too kind. Thank God mine was! Or else I had deserted this place a long, long time ago. I still miss my friends who I go home with; I miss their company, their life story, their smiles and heartache. I miss everyone, I hope they miss me too…I was always saying I will go if there is an opportunity, or I hate working at a bank, but I am stuck here. Might as well make the most out of it. So at least, I am enjoying the presence of my officemate. They are the people that keeps me happy and complete here. Although the salary and the work itself is so dumb-founding – so repetitious! And I was born to market, so I want a life where it is fast-paced and moving. That is so not found on a bank.

Update on my personal life and the wonders of my shopping: Known to be a shopaholic and proud to be one, although my finance accountant (as if I have one!) is not so proud and have been very relentless in letting me waste more! I can’t help it. As soon as I got money and I’ve settled my eyes on something I like, -- no slash that – LOVE something, I just need to have it. Of course, if it is within my budget and needs – now, what is my needs? Too much to even make a list about it. I just finish reading Shopaholic Book 1, actually I already read the last one the Wedding part and I just so can relate myself, but since I still am living in my parents roof, I don’t shop or go gaga over furniture’s and appliances! Thank God! Hum…my cravings? My obsession? Tiramisu. Cheesecake. Books. (chiklit and all those books that discusses fashion and murder, thriller, mystery!) Any type of lovely shoes. (You should know that there is always a little – in my case, a lot of Imelda in us!) We just finish fixing and arranging our shoes and put them in a plastic case, and boy was it a lot! It looks like I got more than 100 pairs! Crazy but true. I’ve been splurging on bazaars and have been selling these stuffs too. But the scale of money earned and money spent has not been balance ever since! Ugh… I just love shopping I don’t know why it is so damn hard! And food…I know you should not “tipid” or be thrift on food, and I am just following the golden rule… so when it comes to food? SPLURGE! Especially dessert! Oh-la-la! The pleasure of just putting that mouth-watering pastry on your mouth! Haha…enough…my friends birthday is so nearing, I wonder where we will spend it? Hum…somewhere delicious, fulfilling, and expensive, I HOPE!

P.S.

(Pam…too bad you are not here- naka lusot si Elaine ng libre sayo—*ay may replacement ka na pala*>, but then I guess, you are having a hell of fun in there too! Miss you and shop for us na! I know you got money nmn....both the blazer and top will do...hum la bang bonus p -- oh my this is too much! haha....)
