I was stalking visiting Friendster profiles and I saw this very funny shout-out from my cousin... {TABANG! = HELP!} It's a quote from my super cute niece/goddaughter Paige. HAHA!!! Too cute but also very disturbing. Hmmm.... at age four, I didn't even have a crush yet. My first crush was Ariz Jake Cruz (LOL!) when I was in grade 2.

It's CHRISTMAS!!!
I'm tired and sleepy. I'm not feeling well. I still have tons to do. I am working at Basti's Brew right now, and I have to attend a "family reunion" at 7 pm. But I'm happy, happy, happy! I am thinking of getting my first-ever foot spa. Hmmm... Last night was not really eventful but it was delicious. The food was great. We had different kinds of cheeses and cold cuts. YUM! Then, we had puttanesca and seafood pasta, lechon, and ham. For dessert, I ate chocolate pie and chocolate ganache from Lachi's. Then, we had our exchange gifts. Greggy, Ate Ina's husband gave me a pair of red Slim Havaianas. It's so nice, I'm wearing them right now. I also received some cash from some of my titas. And a pair of green earrings from Luan. I also got to down a handful of glasses of beer which put to sleep when I arrived home at around 3 am. This morning, I went straight to Daddy and Mommy's house where I received a nice black handbag from Mommy, and a personalized keychain from Mae-mae. The handbag is exactly the size I want. YEY!!! I love it. Then me and…
It's Christmas Eve
Oh well, not really Christmas Eve yet since it's only 2:50 pm, but I can already feel the Christmas buzz. Finally, I'm really truly excited for Christmas to come. It's a big unnecessary fuss and it stresses me out but I'm happy right now. I am loving my hair, and the clothes I'm gonna wear later. Call me superficial, I don't care. I am excited to spend time with the cute but uber spoiled babies. I want to see them open their gifts and enjoy every moment of the celebration and revelry. I want to know already what gift(s) I will receive. I don't care what they are exactly, I just love the feeling of opening a gift. Basta... I'm happy and excited. SUPER! Haha!
Some Things I am Thankful For
It's one day before Christmas Eve, and I'm feeling great today. It's like there are endless possibilities out there and I'm bound to have some great days ahead. Despite my problems, angst, and bitterness, there were are things I should be thankful for: I am grateful for the people around me. I've already thanked them before but I think they deserve another mention: my cousins, especially Gwing, Luan, Kuya Andrew, John and Cherry, Cha, Brian and Aimee, and Mae; my aunts and uncles, Mommy and Daddy, Tia Mila, Mam Bebs, Tita Teri, and Tita Ivi; my friends from high school, Neil, Mae, Catet, Wenna, Bbboy, JJ, Kate, Erwil, Ace, Mikong, and Twy; my forever bestfriends Joey and Tiani; my friend from college, Lucky; my SJL Boys, especially Papi, Aiwem, Jobo, Brylle, Toti, Elmer, and Landz; the Sta Ana boys, Pics, Pido, Talong, and BJ; the BT boys, Jay, Rioren, Topher, Cocoy, Chian, Jeztah, Duke, Badz, Adi, Burnz, and Yuki; the other DotA boys, Jay, Brian, Jaffet, Totzkie, the Tagum boys, the Kidapawan boys; my colleagues in Seattle, especially Sis Lysette, Sis Palle, Levi, and Glenn; my employers, Seattle, Brian aka APEX, Kuya Andrew aka Alleba, and Boss Johnny; my landlords…
Had a Haircut
I have a new man in my life. His name is Josh. He is a hairdresser at Hair Zone, and I absolutely ♥ him! GRAWRRR!!! I don't have the energy to buy fabulous clothes for Christmas. So I bought a nice but quite plain top from a friend (who sells very nice clothes and bags). But I want my Christmas photos to be great, so I decided I'd have a haircut. I went to Hair Zone, which is beside Basti's Brew. They gave me a random hairdresser since it was my first time there. And I was lucky to have Josh. Josh was fantastic. He asked me what I wanted. I really didn't know what I wanted except that I want to try out having bangs. He asked me if it was ok to do this or that to my hair and I really don't care so I let him do his thing. And it came out great. At least I think I look great. He asked me what I did, where I worked and other things like those. Then he suggested that I have my hair treated. Hmmm... He said I'd look better with some color and highlights. And…
Christmas is Almost Here
It's December 21, 2007, three days before Christmas Eve, four days before Christmas day. But I can't feel the Christmas spirit. I am doing a lot of things, thinking about a lot of problems, and rushing to beat numerous deadlines. As I grow older, Christmas and other holidays become more boring, and more stressful. When I was younger, Christmas used to fill me with excitement and joy. And no matter how sparse the celebration was, no matter how few the gifts I received, I was happy. Now, Christmas is becoming more and more stressful. I still haven't bought any gifts to give, or any clothes to wear to those parties. I still don't know which parties I am going to, when, where, with whom. I don't even know what I'll be doing on Christmas day. Still, there's a part of me that is excited. The other night's fun, fun night with some of my high school friends only made me more excited to spend more time with more of them. That can only mean more fun, alcohol, gossip, and photo ops. Then, there's the gifts. Ok so, I won't probably get any big gifts this year. And I won't get…
