OH-EM-GEE

I LOVE TODAY! Had a meeting, then took home a box of pomelos. 

There was a slight change of plans though. We were originally set to have dinner at Xocolat then road trip to LGV. It was so funny coz around 3 pm, it was raining like crazyyyy here at my place. I texted Claude to check the weather at her place. Deep inside I was panicking because (1) I don't wanna cancel my dinner with Claude, (2) I don't want another flood please, (3) I'm so bored I was actually planning to go to the mall before meeting up with Claude. I was super paranoid I thought of bringing extra undies and shirt in case I need an emergency sleepover at her place. haha When the sky started to clear, I ditched the extra shirt but I did bring undies. At least if I stay in an evacuation center, I have extra underwear. ahahaha

Minutes later I was off to Eastwood with Claude for the PSID exhibit then dinner at Sizzling Pepper Steak- my treat, dessert at Johnny Rockets- her treat. haha

Johnny Rockets reminds me of Pop Tate's. Yeah, that diner in Archie comics. Cuuute place BUT OVERPRICED! Burgers were at 300++ to 500ish. 

Anyhoo, there! Too bad we couldn't watch a movie coz she has an exam tomorrow morning. But of course, there's always next time! yay! And before we parted ways she asked me about Clear's new ad. I went crazy I just haaad to see it. I can't believe it wasn't launched on ABS-CBN. Larice says may internal issues but she can't reveal because her work binds her. Saw it on GMA and finally saw a copy on youtube. yay! I'm still pro-H&S but this ad is waaaay better than their previous ones- especially the clear warriors. Major fail. Anyhoo, here here! Enjoy! :))

ANG DAMING CONCERTS

Grabe on November there's Katy Perry and Black Eyed Peas then December there's Lea Salonga. 

Now Ja Lagunda asked me to come and watch *ehem* the Star Magic concert on Nov.13! OMG of course I said yes! Farrah is also coming so I'm absopositivolutely excited about it. hahaha I have to clear my schedule with my dad though. We'll be in Bicol for All Saints and All Souls' Day and I don't know yet how long we'll be staying there. Siguro naman not THAT long. hehe

I won't attend Katy Perry. I'm still thinking about BEP. It will depend on the cost. haha The Lea Salonga concert depends on mom. If she can negotiate her schedule with Joop and Dad, then it'll be my Christmas gift to her. She really wants to watch it so I plan to get the best seats for both of us. hehe

November 14 is also booked for the Yabang Pinoy Bazaar in Rockwell. Weng placed Emm and I on the VIP list ( I guess that means no entrance fee ahahaha). I'll grab the rest of the H&S / Wonder Girls so we can all go shopping together. Gotta save up for that. haha

I wanna finish my deliverables na! Promise, will finish this employee handbook tomorrow! Then Sunday I will start on the CSR policy. I wanna accomplish them so that I can enjoy my sweldo without guilt. HAHA Good night! :)

Lazy Friday :)

Yesterday I tried to register at the COMELEC office. But fifteen minutes after I arrived, they told us to come back today because there's power shortage and they don't want to risk losing their data if they turn on their computers in the midst of the fluctuating power. Unfortunately according to the news, the power shortage won't be addressed until next week. Thus,  decided not to go to comelec today. hehe

I tried to finish my deliverable but two pages later, I got so bored typing the benefits from Philhealth so I didn't finish it. Will try it again tomorrow. I am actually 6 pages short from finishing but oh well. haha

I also tried to cook carbonara this afternoon. I studied the recipe I got online and immediately started working at the kitchen. Grabe, fail! I ended up having what seemed to be pasta with scrambled eggs. Major boohoo! Oh well, I've never been successful in white pasta sauces. Red sauces are easier to make. 

Anyhooo, because I plan to stay home this weekend, I had Red Ribbon White Forest cake delivered here at home. Yummy! I also had my favorite chicken empanadas delivered. This is gonna be a yummy weekend. ayieee! 

Our wifi isn't back yet. I have no idea how to fix it again so I'm here stuck by the bar where the LAN cable is. Kawawa naman my auntie next door (eeek! I know, conyo. haha). She can't share my internet. hehe

And oh, I feel bad for not being able to update my other blog. It's mainly because I haven't really gone for adventures recently. And, I find it such a hassle to manage two blogs. So I dunno. I'm still keeping it but probably erase it in time. I really don't know yet.

And lastly, I saw Glee's 6th episode last night. Grabe, I sooo love Glee. I got really pissed at first because the torrent I downloaded had an error so it wouldn't play. Fortunately, I found a website that had a video stream of Glee. Click here to enjoy the episodes. Btw, I really like Kurt and I still love Mr.Schuster. yaaaaaaaay! hahaha

The fabulous and oh-so-sosh Kurt

Mr. Schuster 

Happy weekend guys!

Missing class

I miss my classes. Especially 172, 177 and 178. This morning Sir Ray sent his alumni an invitation to the final presentation of his class this sem. I'd love to come but I wanna see who's coming first. I also miss drinking Chuckie in class. Or going on long banyo breaks when the class is getting boring. 

Sir Acedera has a new business in Cagayan de Oro. It's a bread business pretty much like Gardenia. He sent 200 loaves to the Ateneo Relief Center for the victims of Ondoy here in Manila. Very kind of him.

I sent Sir Nes an email today. It was just a follow up on our last conversation months back. Yeah, we're email buddies. hahahaha I'm really glad he's happy. 

I'm missing my teachers mainly because of Glee. Mister Schuester is so hot, I super love him! He reminds me of an older Justin Timberlake. And OMG I super died when he sang Alone in epsisode 5. YAY! Love GLEE!

Heart rants

It still surprises me when I realize how we can always exceed ourselves. When someone breaks our hearts, we think it's the end of the world. But somehow, once we've decided to pick up the pieces, we, one day, find our hearts beating again. Beating faster than it used to the last time we were in love. Being more sure this time, being happier that we can ever be.

Last night I was wondering how we can fall in love with a fictional character and want him for ourselves. I remember wanting Edward Cullen for myself. But just like me, everyone wanted him for themselves as well.

When people tell you 'stop looking for love, love will find you', do you actually believe it? Like what if it's all you've ever dreamt of and wanted? Cliche, I know. But if this is your kind of dream, it's not any different from dreaming of becoming a superstar, a hero, or a billionaire. In fact yours is the simplest of all dreams- all you wanna do is to fall in love. You can't just turn your back at your dream and wait for it to come to you. You need to constantly find reasons to work your way to that dream. I dunno what your dreams are, but mine is that we all find the love we all deserve. But I can only dream for all of us. It's up to each of you find it.

Keep loving!

P.S.: This post was made possible by the following factors: Glee episodes on following your dreams (episode 1 most especially), listening to So Close over and over again, watching wedding videos, and my friend Mau who ended up doing a sketch of her ultimate crush.

Eyes 'covered' for a little privacy. haha

Here's So Close by John MacLaughlin from the movie Enchanted.
