CUT to CUT: wish list for MID 2007

------

so after getting over a big chunk of emotional headache, i want to shift to something lighter and not so serious stuff. HAHA!
my wish list for MID 2007, anyways, life just keeps getting better and better, and i do hope for that. aside from being broke and learning to manage my finances, i went to out and shopped to my hearts content, i mean i need a reward after working so hard, its just a little something i deserve. i believe na every once in a while we need to splurge naman so living this life would be much more exciting.. and of course, my siblings are here, i couldnt give them everything they want, and also thats part of the reason why i am broke. its okay, i am happy. - lyrics ata ito ng ironic ni alanis morisette.

DAMIER SPEEDY 30 - we (ags, cho and i) are thinking of buying mom these uber cool bag. its for her birthday, 25th year anniversary, mothers day and christmas all in one. shempre dapat all in one na, im paying more than half of that bag. i wonder kelan ko ito bibilhin. i am excited.



oh, i like this one. to give you a brief background, teslar watches are 'feel good' watch, it sends a unique signal that strengthens the body's own natural electromagnetic field. its benefits are, a deeper, mnore restful sleep, increases energy levels and improves overall well-being. see, something good for the health.



i just saw this quirky belt, its neon blue, actually it has a lot of other colors, but i feel this is the most extreme color i can wear. HAHA!



this cute bowling bag from topman is NICE as well. also saw this bag from marc jacobs around US$62, which is nice din for traveling. actually i am thinking of buying a bag that has this style talaga. i ma deliberating lang whether to get the white H&M bag (30euros), brown fred perry (150sgd), or these marc jacobs (US$62) and TOPMAN (35pounds). alin kaya?



oh yesterday, i got this white perforated vans, pero butas talaga siya sa labas, as in kita socks, so i am thinking na i can wear really cute socks like those stripped neon green, and red. HAHA! this is very different from the rest of the perforated shoes. converse also came up with perforated styles eh, but i like this better.



this old style shoes is a very quirky find too, nasa topman london pa ata ito, and i cant find it in singapore. anyway, cute lang, but more likely na i'd just admire it from afar, i wont really buy it. pero malay naten.

anyways, happy birthday to joan, all the best to you my friend ;) cheers!

HEAD's UP
------

i should be fine. i should be fine. i should be fine.
i keep trying to convince myself that i should be fine.
well, as they say, think positive lang and attract good vibes.
uwe, uwe, uwe, uwe, uwe.....

i know that things are hard and its a bit difficult right now, but
i look forward to a better day, a brighter one.
i hope something good comes out of this, i just know it.
i keep reminding myself to smile, and take it in stride.

next week would be a bit difficult.
kelly's last day was today, and she has been one of my good friends.
rebecca went off to china, and will be back the week after next.
so i have no one really. if rebecca's gone, then i'm done as well.

we have this dynamic friendship.
we keep ourselves entertained thru the hardest times.
we keep each other company too, dinner here, dinner there..
kelly's last words to me before she left, was .. "don't die..."
rebecca's words were .."don't give me that face.."

ey, funny, hold on played at my itunes, i downloaded this song since it was like our theme song with gasso peeps when we were at maru-maru. actually i never knew this song, it was just that i learned it from julia when she was singing it. i miss all of them. i miss fun memories, and fun activities back in manila. i miss my friends. i miss family. shyet. para kasi akong kabayong nagtratrabaho rito. anyway, fast forward to 3rd quarter please. that is the only thing that keeps me going actually, looking forward na to go home (for good)! YAYAYA!

yehey friday!

MISSIN the 'RENTS
------

while i was in malaysia, my family went to baguio for the holy week, they went with tita bot, tita bebs & fam, and uncle k and fam.. so they were around 20 plus the nannies. i kind of missed my parents, and my siblings, i miss spending time with them, and just hanging around. i miss those days where i am just there, and being there was a lot easier and much more convenient for me. i live my life differently now, and i dont have any regrets or whatsoever. i just pray that days would pass by so fast, that in no time, ill be back where i do belong.


my family somewhere in baguio. i got this from chicho's mulitply, he's caption.. family (minus anton)... shucks!


my mom and dad looks so cute together, its like they've been married yesterday. anyways, cute lang.


mom and cho posing ala koreans.. masyado nang nadamay sa kakanuod ng koreanovela. funny story is that at one point, my mom was so crazy about it that even all our utensils at home were korean spoons and chopstick, and take note we ate in a bowl, pero ang ulam namin prok chop. diyos ko!


mom and tita bot here. tita bot is like my second mom, cant wait for our HK trip. YAHOO!


chicho and aggie, my only 2 siblings in the world. i miss them na, i am excited cause they are coming over and we made it a point to watch spiderman 3.. yayaya!!


diyos ko, namimiss ko pamilya ko. konti pa, konti pang tiis...

SCREAM and SHOUT
------

a lot of people are coming to sg, and its all fun seeing them and being with them. yesterday marj arrived, and i felt good having her around. she is one of my cousins that i am close with, eventhough our age gap is around 12 years. hahaha. maybe because same industry which is advertising, parehong panganay, and the cool thing is that we are friends. i am quite lucky on that department that i really have cool cousins (cousin-in-laws) included though i treat them as cousins na din naman so no difference. most of the people i know kase aren't really close to their cousins. i am kinda thankful na our parents brought us up together.

aside from cousins, i really have cool friends. cheryl, tracy and obee were here nung first week of april. i mean, i haven't met them when i was in manila last new year, so it was an unexpected surprise to see obee, che and trace all in sg. well, obee was in for a business trip, cause she is now based in HCM. well, as for trace and che, they were here for a holiday break talaga, and we went to MALAYSIA nga nung good friday, saturday and sunday. nakakapagod but it was well worth the trip, it was fun to be with them, in the company of the people who knew you since back then. basta. oh, dont get me wrong i am not trying to be emotional, masaya lang ako, i still try to look at the positive side of things whatever is in front of me.


we stayed at obee's hotel (meritus mandarin) sosyal for one night, i remembered, one of my despedida bago ako umalis papuntang singapore, che booked a hotel then we had an overnight, and she invited my high school friends over.



ang tawag nga dito ni che ay ang soap opera pose. malay ko, maybe it has to do with the lighting.


oh the famous $1 ice cream, cheryl, trace and i went gaga over it.


we were at they train, eh walang magawa, sige picture lang ng picture. oh this is cheryl's friend, richard, he has been working here for almost 3 years. can you imagine that? i cannot.


i had dinner at wisma with them that night, thanks to richard for treating us. i promised him that i will invite him over for our next adobo party, i miss adobo na, i can't wait.

HELLO BLOG, from MALAYSIA
------

it wasn't really intentional but it felt like blog leave, the feeling of being so consumed that you want to write a lot of things, but doesn't have the power to. it just sucks, anyway, to be honest about it, i still don't have that much energy to write and stuff, but i guess coming back from holy week holidays, it's better to write something than none at all. work is work, and blog is blog, but unfortunately, it all boils down to one person which is me.

cheryl, tracy and i went to Tioman Island in Malaysia. i was so busy that i dont even know where we are going, they arranged everything, from the travel agency to the place, apologies to them that i wasn't much of a big help, i was too preoccupied. it was just a small strip of the island, it has a nice beach (not much stones) which constitutes a perfect beach, at least hinde sugatan ang talampakan ko.



since isa nga lang sanig that siyang isla, wala kameng magawa kundi tumambay sa beach, buti na lang i was able to use my krabi banig that i bought last january. HAHA


ah, after mag beach, sarap magshake, pero ubos na ang shake nito. tracy was glowing in her mala-JLO na color daw, though dapat mala-beyonce, kasi may flash pa ang camerang ito.


chilaxin sa may duyan, anti-stress and all, but it's coming back anyways. funny side story, so i told my mom na if ever i go back to manila, i want to rest for a number of weeks, she replied me, okay lang, pahinga ka muna, super pagod inabot mo diyan, wala ka pa namang responsibility... talking about responsibility all of a sudden.


sungit face dahil gutom na ako. ano ba, order na kasi..sa super laid back nila, ang tagal mag deliver ng food, it takes them mga 20 minutes..


since wala talaga kameng magawa, cheryl asked us to jump tapos kuhaan daw niya kame, more versions sa multiply, but ito na ang fave ko, pinaka-matino looking. ano ba naman kasi, i dont even jump.


oh, things i do bring to the beach for a vaca!


the view is nice, actually it has been fun, but i dont think i will go back, riding that ferry is such a hassle. being here in sg, and going to malaysia, super big difference ang efficienvy ng both countries, and most of the time, i have no patience, so ayaw ko na sa malaysia.. maybe KL na lang. os side story, naiwan kaya kame ng bus namin, dahil late ang ferry. punyeta.

anyways, it was a fun trip after all, i hope lang na i dont get sick tomorrow and the next few days to come. i am so tired from all the travelling sa bus and ferry, as in hiloo-hilo na ako, but i can say na being with familiar people (college barkada) was really a lot of fun, whi would have thought na we are going to spend our 2007 holy week in Tioman Island in Malaysia. ;)
