i watched (through TFC) the broadcast of the on-going house session of government officials in the philippines. they were discussing 'bout whether or not to air the supposed to be "mother of all tapes" that contains wiretapped conversations of the president that placed her in hot seat. haha. ang exciting talaga ng pinoy politics! anyway, i think Remulla was an effective chairman back there. there was also this speaker who used to be a tv-newscaster-commentator (i forgot his name, though. basta he hosted The Assignment program before) that is very clear and straight to the point. i like his arguments on sticking to the objective and not letting the other speakers of the house lead the session astray... kasi naman yung ibang speakers, simpleng bagay pinapa-complicate pa! i believe that the country really has intelligent lawyers and politicians. it's just a pity that most of them use it in more selfish ways than serving the madlang people. sigh. hmm.. there's a funny part though during that hearing. the speakers where blaming the sound system of the building and the electronic connection of the media as the ones responsible for the bad quality of the audio that is being heard. hello??? don't they think?? the first part of the audio kaya is so clear! syempre, the rest is tapped.. what can they expect??? of course, there would be a bit of craziness in the sound. are they expecting a 128 bit rate to have a CD-quality audio?!? hay. ewan ko ba. sometimes, some people are so intelligent that they become dumb when it comes to simple things. oh well, i switched channel instead and watched teleseryes that are worth my time. hahaha. what a responsible citizen of the republic of the philippines!=)

on the topic of being responsible, i went shopping today!!! yey!!! my favorite pasttime!! (hmmm.. ano kinalaman non? hehehe) got a new baby blue blouse and some hair accessories. wala lang, feel ko lang mag-pin ng hair at magpaka-girly. =) i also had a bunchful of fries today. grabe, addicted to french fries with matching mayo and catsup na yata ako...hehehe. sarap eh! i hope it doesn't bring zits on my face though. or else, goodbye my fries na ako. haha.

i am in such a happy mood today. i had a clearer picture of my personal struggles na kasi. at least, i have something to look forward to and kahit papaano, may direction yung buhay ko. no matter how crooked or uncertain it may seem at this time. ang importante, am going to where my heart is. nasaan nga ba???!!!!! secret!!!!!!! ngehehehe.

Wednesday, June 29, 2005

it's been awhile since i had a heavy cry... ewan ko ba, affected talaga ako. though i tried so hard to hope for the best things, the reality always sips in and tries to snatch my hope away. so, i slept last night with a heavy heart... i know, there's no one else to blame but me. am i being so makulit??? trying to convince myself that things will get better?? that there is hope??? eh, parang wala na talaga. i'll just cry some more and perhaps things may or may not get better, but then it will all be clearer. =(

along with this sad feeling, is the fact that the vacation that i definitely need will not push through. i really can't go without an approval. well, i could send an email to the director (that is, if he manages to check his mails), but then this means a bad impression on me. so, huwag na lang. i don't wanna lose face when they come back. anyway, i have tons of work to do. in the contrary, this means, i will not be as harrassed as i am come fall semester because i will be done with all my assignments. cge na nga, accepted ko nang wala akong vacation this year. anyway, based from the academic calendar, there's gonna be a 3-wk semestral break on January 2006. i might be taking that chance to go in a vacation instead. it will be a better climate in HK by then, plus Disney will be open by that time. hmmm... nice idea...

i already sent my vacation money to the philippines. they need it more than i do. okay lang. it's a good daughter's obligation naman....

i did favors for two great friends of mine today, Fe and Lea... i hope, they get their peace of mind as well...

wala akong appetite today. i just had a quick breakfast and had M&M and clover chips for lunch. =(

first of all, meet rolly... he's a cute fragile bear so named because he was my prize in a rollette at the Global Village in Dubai. =) just wanted to show you my huggable baby who never runs out of hugs!!! ;)

anyway, i slept late because hershey and i finished our chat way past midnight last night, meaning we wrapped up this morning! =) an almost endless chattering over a box of Dunkin Donuts! haha. we talked about her exciting lovelife. nakakaaliw ang kwento ng lokaret na ito! =) oh well, if future mom's wanted their kids to have a bursting personality, they definitely should name her "hershey". for sure, they'll get what they wished for! kasi ang mga hershey na nakilala ko, ang gugulo grabe! haha.

on a brighter note, we finally had our TFC back! our watchman is such a b****! ang arte nya! he uninstalled the satellite dish without informing us beforehand, and now that the TFC personnel are going to install it once more (for a fee)... nag-in-inarte pa ang watchman namin and wants them to wait up for him. naku, naku... what can i say??? the TFC people just installed the dish without him. pa-VIP kasi. hmmp.

lastly, i am so pissed at myself today. i was not able to have my leave form signed by our director and now he's gone for the USA!!! that means, i can't have a long vacation for this year! sad. hmm, given the schedule for the coming school year, the next available dates for vacation that i could take will be on November (about 10 days??) and December (a week??). kainis!! my sister's gonna kill me... i messed up our planned vacation to Thailand which we are both looking forward to. hay.... kakainis talaga!!!

Batman Begins

hubby and i got to see Batman Returns. actually, nagkayayaan lang... ang casual talaga namin. hehehe. well, we could be mistaken as mag-barkada than husband and wife. i remember before, angels@work had an activity and my hubby (which was my boyfriend back then) came with us. the activity was successful. a week after that, me and Dot went to Starbuck's at The Fort (our usual "chika" con meeting venue) for our wrap-up meeting. then, he asked me which among those that participated and helped in the outreach activity was my boyfriend. i told him, the one wearing a yellow shirt. am surprised he didn't notice that. nde ba ako showy??? or nde lang talaga halata that there's something going on. or manhid lang talaga si Dot??! haha. maybe, me and my hubby must have been used to the "pretending" we used to do and people came to know that we were in a relationship only months after... call that a top secret keeping! hehe. however, there are times i also get envious on those couples who are so transparent with their feelings. yung may pa-HHWW pa! hehe. oh well, you can't have it all, ika nga. anyway, we had our moments din naman kahit papaano. maybe, being in a marriage makes it less romantic compared to being in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. maybe because of the assumption that you are inseparable, with or without romance. maybe, maybe not.

as for the batman movie... well, am not a batman fanatic. i can't recall watching a batman movie on a big screen. feeling ko kasi, nde worth it, kasi nga nde appealing si batman sa kin. hehe. maybe because i don't like black color???!!!! o dahil wala siyang super powers?!!! whatever. i got to see the batman movie today. i dunno who christian bale is...hmm, in some shots he looks like tom cruise, but he's more manly and has more muscles than cruise. =) (my nephew, Daniel, says he has ipit na boses though. haha. binastos!) but then again, i enjoyed the movie whoever batman is! he did justice to the character, nice voice or not. it was my first ever big screen batman movie and i enjoyed it!!! now, it gets me into thinking if i missed anything from not paying so much attention to past batman movies. wala naman siguro. after the movies, we had lunch around 4pm in KFC. i had a chicken meal, coleslaw, and mango sundae. gutom talaga ako! haha. i don't care whether i finished up the chicken with much gusto. =) on our way back home, stopped by to some small shops because hubby's gonna buy shirts. worried siya kasi he's having bigger tummy na daw. haha. laki nga ng tummy niya. he must be pregnant??!!! huh??!!! we went home after he was able to buy two shirts.

at home, i did my usual chores. change the linen, change the busted light bulb, did the laundry, make tea, do some grocery... hay... come nighttime, my friend hershey, an opthalmologist that i met here in abu dhabi stopped by. we had our chika-chika... haha. ewan ko ba sa babaeng ito, sing-daldal ko!! nope, i'm not actually talkative...oh well, ok.. i'm a little talkative only to those people i feel comfortable with. aminin daw ba! haha. comfortable means yung tipong alam kong i don't have to make pa-cute or pa-sosyal just to earn their acceptance. hershey's like that. first time i went to the clinic she works with, bonding na agad kami as if we've known each other for so long. nakakatuwa talaga, nice people were thrown into me here in UAE. good thing, i am in the company of such good people, kahit papaano nababawasan pagka-miss ko sa mga friends ko in the phils. but just the same, friends come and go. it's how we spend time with them that counts.

Thursday, June 23, 2005

i am someone who's very much into planning. most of my disappointments were results of plans that didn't materialized. however, my most depressing moments are those times i learned that my plans that did materialized were actually wrong moves!!! kase naman minsan, i don't think talaga. if i do naman, i tend to be rebellious and decides to take the wrong move instead. and then what??? hay... what else, but wish i have been more sane.

now, i am more confused and sad. confused on what is there to do? hoping to find a way to undo my previous complicated decisions. sad... for seeing not a glint of hope, hoping for the impossible and dreaming for something beyond what could actually happen. ang gulo ko... i always am. that's me and this is how i live my life. if not living my life would make things simple, would it be bad to wish that i hope my life ends? hmmm... just a thought.

i failed in my driving test today... i won't go into specifics anymore because it just gets me depressed. basta, i knew i can drive well na eh. it's just those damn, damn rules and those pangit, pangit pulis!!!! ggrrr... gusto kong pumatay ng pulis!!!!!!

nope, i didn't cry out loud this time. instead, i just decided i'd take a vacation. somewhere. Phils., HK, Thailand.. bahala na where to. Basta, i need to get out of this God-forsaken country before i kill their policemen. sigh. i might as well spend my bucks travelling. to hell with UAE driving license! ayaw nilang magbigay, sa kanila na yun! hehehe. eh di airplane sasakyan ko and not cars.. ano ba naman pupuntahan ko dito, disyerto??? hello??!!! nde ko in-ambisyon makipag-chika-chika sa mga camels noh! hmp! anyway, these will be my vacation plans:

Plan #1: go to HK by myself from Dubai. visit OceanPark, etc.
Plan #2: go home to the Phils. and then to Thailand / Malaysia? with my sister.


i do hope i get to finish all the stuffs that i need at the lab in time, so i could have a lot of time for vacation. that means rendering a lot of extra hours next week. so be it. anyway, is there something to look forward in coming home early? wala naman.


of the things that i carry so heavily in my heart, i'm glad i was able to poured it out to someone i care and love so deeply about. note: it's a present tense. because i never stopped caring and loving. ang hirap kasing mag pretend na happy kahit nde. but pretend, i must. as of now, i'll prepare everything so that when they come into my life, they won't blame me for bringing them out. hay. i want babies. reasonable or not.

Tuesday, June 21, 2005

tomorrow's going to be my second try on driving test. kinakabahan na naman ako. hopefully luck will be at my side this time. sigh. jony, my driving teacher, suggested that i wear something red tomorrow. like in chinese tradition, she says it brings in good luck. ipagkatiwala ko na lang daw driving career ko sa swerte! haha. walang tiwala sa aking powers! oh well, i do hope and pray all the angels come down from the heaven tomorrow. isama na din nila si San Pedro, para bumait sa kin yung mga pulis, hehe.

ang weird kasi ng mga pulis dito sa UAE.
they wanted the driver to look at the mirrors with the matching head movement. hello??!! i'd lose my concentration when i do that. imagine, they don't accept eye movement alone. gosh! what to do??!! look into those mirrors and get myself killed??!! that'll be myleen's "last glance at mirrors" (a blog title, but who will write that??). kainis talaga. anyway, that's their rule. so, follow i must. kainis ulet.

hmm... just this afternoon i was looking over the veranda down to the streets. i surveyed where i'll put my 4W-drive car. haha. talk about dreamin' in midday! =) oh well, a 4W-drive car tops my wish list. ewan ko ba. kotse never did caught my fancy. Honda Civic, even BMW or Peugeot???!! naah. i may find it awesome for a couple of minutes or so. but i have never imagined myself driving those type of cars. i saw this extraordinary blue-colored Jaguar in the parking area once. ang ganda, grabe! that will be an exception to my rule. haha. Jaguar eh. anyway, 4W drives, nope, i haven't imagined myself in one of those because i see myself driving it! actually, i fancy a Ford Expedition however, that's way too expensive... so, i can do with Honda CR-V or Nissan Murano na lang. last tawad na yun. haha. am i talking to myself or to my fairy godmother?

tomorrow is the key! and i have an aching right foot... :( kainis. i had cramps kasi maybe because of last night's walking. and until now, i can't move my feet properly. wawa naman ako. so excuse my dreaming. =)

after my driving lesson at 6pm, i booked a flight back to the phils via Cathay Pacific. the flight will be on july 2 to august 7. but then, i had to confirm it on or before june 25th. it's a peak season that's why seats are so limited these days. hmm.. gusto ko sana ng Singapore Airlines but it's way over the budget. :(

from the travel agency, i walked around the city. lakad-lakad lang while humming "You Are My Sunshine" (kahit gabi na, hehe), by myself. it's a 1.5 hr walk. it's humid kaya pawisan ako when i got home.

i managed to put the laundry in the washing machine, that's why i can tell i've been a dutiful wife. hehe. anyway, i went rummaging to stuffs in my cabinet as well and saw this photo of me and my friends.

this was our last outreach project. in an orphanage in Bulacan. nakaka-miss! nami-miss ko sila and our activities. when i get back, it won't be the same as they will be all busy with their new activities. Ada had her baby girl na and Me-ann's due to give birth this coming december naman. And me... oh well, as usual, inggit. buti pa sila proven na nila na hindi sila bading. haha. at buti pa mga babies nila, will be barkada's for sure kasi halos magka-age lang. sigh. i know what will make me happy. a baby will.

my sister-in-law is very particular of how a food tastes. however, she praised the embutido that i made last Friday. yummy daw! because of that, i'm sharing my recipe! here goes....

ingredients:
ground pork
onions - finely chopped
carrots - finely chopped
raisins - sunmaid brand
celery or spring onions - finely chopped
hotdog slices
hardboiled eggs / salted eggs - sliced
breadcrumbs
eggs - beaten
salt to taste
optional : shrimp - debonned and sliced in half

procedure:
1. mix the ingredients well. ensure that mixture is not too dry or wet.
2. place the boiled eggs slices in the middle.
3. wrap in aluminum foil.
4. cook in steamer for 30-45 mins. until cooked.
5. served as fried

note: half kilo of pork makes 4-5 rolls of embutido

with the recipe above, it can be observed that there is no quantity specified. before, i tried making embutido straight from the recipe book. it didn't turn out quite well. however, when i made embutido just relying on my sense of taste, smell and gut feeling, the embutido tastes magnificent! hehe nde naman ako sobrang exaggerated non! =) like life, sometimes it helps not to have definite sets of instructions or expectations. just take it as it is. for all you know, it'll turn out more than what you have expected. as long as you know what will make you happy, then go for it! ako, i know what will make me happy. medyo mahirap kunin, but noone except God can stop me. medyo nade-depress for each failed attempt, pero no, i won't let failures snatch away my happiness.

The Jellyfish

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

the day has been as usual...work, driving lesson. i was able to have a chat with my friends though (Elyn and Rhoda). elyn's going to a far away land (i promised not to tell kasi, hehe) and rhoda's not taking a vacation like me... casual talks, balitaan lang. after that, i logged on in the internet and was able to have a chat with a long time friend as well. he just came from a vacation from the philippines, dami niyang kwento! kakainggit because he had so much fun and was able to do so many fun activities. for awhile, i felt sorry for myself. nde kasi ako naghintay pa. i felt sorry for myself because the things that i longed for, to be married nicely and have kids, nde pa rin pala matutupad kahit na nde ako naghintay. i just remembered the email i forwarded this morning. the story about Plato and how he describes love and marriage. that love is finding the right person and losing it anyway. and marriage is finding the first person and taking risk with him. did i make sense??? i love my hubby, because he chose to be with me and keep our commitment. i love my hubby for his patience and understanding, eventhough i'm the most stubborn girl he ever had. i love my hubby because despite of all the trials we are having, i know he's trying his best to make it all easy for me. but somehow, if i feel lonely... i'd still wish i have been a jellyfish and stuck on so tight, never letting go until a vinegar is poured on me. nonsense.

badtrip! tsk! tsk! i have tons of rocks to process and i can't leave for home because of this. sad. what's even more irritating is this conglomerate rock that i'm making into thin section. it's my 3rd time to process it and it's either too thin or too thick. (i know, i sounded like Greek.. pardon my language then)

if it's too thick, of course, i had to grind it down. but when i had it ground down to approx. 35 microns, it gets eaten up by the grits! hay. kainis! gusto ko nang ibato yung bato! hehe. who cares being the second person to do thin sectioning in Abu Dhabi???!! who cares about these rocks???!!! (wag sana mabasa ng mga amo ko, hehe) i just wanna go home! go home and see SM again, magpa-parlor sa David's, kumain sa jollibee, etc. haha.

i still have 1 more week to go. if i don't finish everything by next week, it means my vacation is a dream and i'll have the hottest, loneliest, most boring time of my life for real.

i just received the performance appraisal from our director... and my rating is ABOVE EXPECTATION! beat that! dapat lang noh! ngahaha. just this late afternoon while i'm on the bus, i noticed i had callouses on my palm just below the finger areas. hu-whaat???!!! yeah... me, who used to have soft hands had callouses already because of that d*** machines! so, i do think i deserved that above expectation thing. i asked jovy what's the bearing of that evaluation...meaning, does it translates to salary adjustment?? (hoping!)... too bad, it does not. =(hay, it's really just doing your best to surpass the goal you've set for yourself. no, problem though. at least i earned expats' respect and i can say with my head up that i've met my goal. sana lang, one of my bosses won't pissed me off with his unrelentless worries anymore. hello??! ok lang ba ako or am i dreaming??! hehe.

The Soprano's

Image hosting by Photobucket

yep! these are the faces behind the soprano voices! jovy, elaiza, mimi, baby, elyn, tin-tin, lydia and me! this isn't the complete list. there's still the one who took the photo (hmm, i forgot her name, tama ba yun! hehe... ay! si Phoebe pala! sorry!) and sister fely, who's our voice leader. actually, there are still more but they were not able to attend yesterday's sportsfest. =( naka-duty kasi sila on their respective jobs.

anyway, when i first joined tGod's Flock Choir i have no idea as to which group i should join into. kala ko nga eh tenor ako! haha. i do love to sing, but hello, as soprano?? parang nde ata... oh well, am here and i don't regret it! i love being with this choir, i love being in soprano. before, i don't even have the faintest idea what falsetto means. i had to research 'bout it over the internet because i'm too shy to ask them. pero ngayon alam ko na.. yun pala yung, you have to sing in your not-so-normal voice na parang iniipit na palaka. teka, eh yun ang normal voice ko ah! haha.

say "cheese" in falsetto, girls! ;)

my hubby brought home Popeye's chicken as pasalubong. hmm?? naglalangis, because i have tampo last night kasi. we just love Popeye's chicken and coleslaw! back in the philippines, we usually ate at this fastfood outlet when we had our usual mall date. when i got here in UAE, i haven't eaten on any Popeye's outlet, not until he came. we really could compare which outlet among the Popeye's in UAE is the tastiest. yep! even if they bear the same franchisee name, the one in Airport Road is the best! haha. and i wasn't even paid to say it!

what do i love with our relationship? just like our favorite chicken meal, there could be KFC, McDonald's, etc., but we always stay inlove to the one we chose to love.

The Gals of GFC

Image hosting by Photobucket

group picture with the gals of God's Flock Choir... picture-picture muna bago ang lahat! hehe

this is one of the finest days... got the chance to exchange laughter with friends from an organization i joined into. the members are just superb, they are all nice, aside from being talented and all. nakakahawa tuloy, hehe.

the event started after we've had dinner at 8 pm. it's a feast! i liked the "sago"drink the most! maybe, because i missed it so much! hehe...missing "sa malamig"! the activities went smoothly thanks to everybody's effort. we had a parade, muse & escorts pageant, and games (volleyball, basketball and parlor games)! i joined the basketball game... my first time to play that game! grabe, ang saya! :) eventhough it's tiring at the same time. we all went home exhausted but with big smiles! :)

Current modes...

here's what the day has been...

  • had my 2-hr driving lesson with my driving teacher jony. her car was fixed na, that's why i can drive at 100kph with ease na. =)
  • did our laundry and some ironing afterwards. yun nga lang, i just iron my clothes. i got tired na kasi. though my hubby wondered how come i suddenly got tired after ironing all of my clothes leaving his clothes behind. hehe... i dunno, coincidence? ;p
  • am supposed to buy pork for our BBQ baon tomorrow, but heeded otherwise because i am sick. well, no doctor has confirmed it yet but i feel the same pain like the last time i got sick. =( i hate being sick.
  • i had drunk 1-li of water hoping i could do something about the pain, though it may be too late for now. just don't wanna go to a doctor again!
  • am excited for tomorrow's sportsfest activity with my choir mates. i wonder what game i will join into??... or would i be able to go??? waahhh... i really looked forward for that! i borrowed tin-tin's (my niece) sunglasses pa naman! i hope i'd feel better tomorrow.
  • wished i could have that silver (with orange lens) oakley sunglasses talaga! hehehe
  • i had 2 slices of domino's pizza for dinner. yummy!!! i'll just open a can of tuna for hubby tonight. =)
  • my hubby scolded me this afternoon, i'm hard-headed daw kasi. me, being not a water-drinker... however, early this evening, he gave me a call to see how am i doing and reminded me to drink plenty of water... that's why i love him so much! kunyari galit, concern din pala, hehe.

Blogsite 2.0

its been days since i started engaging into the blogging mania. since then, i was constanly online in my quest for the perfect template. a week ago, i begun using one victorian template. chose that template because i was on the lookout for a simple yet elegant looking one. something that will not hurt the readers eyes as well as mine (hehe). when i first saw this light brown template with flowery border, i said to myself, not bad... i can use and live with this. well, i had a hard time customizing it, adding the tagboard and contents. those were the only things i've done so far but it was presentable enough. if someone happens to get lost into it, he could recognize it as a blogsite already, hehe.

anyway, i was happy with that accomplishment not until i got online then brag it to my nephew, and have him take a look at it. guess what, he said "tita, your blogsite looks so...hmm...victorian". rephrased to mean "too old-looking", so as not to hurt my feelings. well, that's why i started looking for another template, simple yet elegant and not "victorian"!!! haha. luckily enough, i chanced upon this new template... simple, elegant and angelic!! haha. feeling angelic, if i may say so. i downloaded it with so much excitement, but with all the activities i have to do (practice for choir and seminar at the office), i have to postpone its construction for some days.

so far, i've have started the overhauling of my blogsite. what you see is what you get! i realized that eventhough you stole a nice blogger template from someone, customizing it to your liking is still a pain! i know, i know... this blogsite still needs some fixing. i recognize the fact that i still need to resolve the following:
  • need to have an archive page. dunno where i will place the archive source code. <-- i was finally able to turn on the archiving thingy! (06/14/07) hurray! no need for a separate archive page as this was not supported by blogger anymore. they recommended having the archive links be placed in the main page instead. kaya naman pala eh! it helps to read the "help! i'm lost page of the host". =)
  • need to have a title... dunno how will i add that above the text area.
  • need to add the links!... still figuring how to add that below the text area again! <-- links were added.. although some may still be dead at the moment. can't find time to make the extra html files kasi eh. =(
  • need to update and correct links in the navigation (blockquote) area. <-- done!!! ngahaha
  • add some scripts such as mood meter, site meter, and lahat ng klase ng meter! ;P
  • need to add a tagboard! now, if i remember it right, i did it in my previous version. how come i can't configure it this new version???!!! <-- okay, i did it! see below! =) 4 down, 2 to go! bwahaha...
still a long way to go. =( but then, as i post my online journal, hopefully i can also resolve the blogsite construction issues one at a time. the thing is, i now have a blogsite that can post my thoughts. it's a post as you construct, construct as you post task. :)

as usual, to prove how self-centered i am (ngahaha.. ibuking daw ba ang sarili...), i'm creating a 100-things list that sets me apart from others... ít'll be a work-in-progress since even myself is unsure if that difference would make a hundred... anyhow, feel free to post your contribution! =)
  1. i used to shun away from coffee... then got addicted to it... then back on turning it down once more... in short, coffee and me are like bf-gf, away-bati!!! hehehe.
  2. i prefer mr. donut over dunkin's... but a chocolate-flavored donut is one i couldn't resist whatever brand it comes from!
  3. of all the flowers, i love daisies.... happy kasi ako just by looking at it and i love anything that makes me happy. so, i love daisies! getsch nyo ang logic? =)
  4. i'm a trying-hard techie.. i want to learn more about cutting edge technologies, would be delightful to read about it but just couldn't find the time. so, i just learn about techie things by buying and tweaking with it . an expensive way to learn though. =(
  5. i am fond of making kalikot...ngehehe. be it scrapbooking or repairing machines. disassembling, yan ang forte ko! kasi hindi ko na siya maibalik ulet matapos kong kalasin...hehehe.
  6. i am not into jewelries. aside from having phobia from the countless snatching incidents i experienced in Manila, jewelries just makes me itch! hmm... fake or not. i'm just not used to wearing one, except for the watch. i'd rather buy electronic gadgets than spend my hard-earned money in shining metals.
  7. i'm a night person... i'd rather stay up late than wake up early.
  8. i'm a frustrated dancer-singer-model-swimmer rolled into one. in short, wala akong talent except dumaldal! hehehe.
  9. i am not into computer games that much... siguro kasi wala akong xbox or ps2.. but if i do have one, i'll play war games! yung puro patayan... ngahahaha... violente pala! -- update: we finally got a ps2 at home. had the most violent games too! however, couldn't find the time para maging expert annihilator i recently discovered that my hands just couldn't move in a synchronized way. hehe. if one moves, the other stops and vice-versa. so, how would i become an annihilator then? i ended up imitating Resident Evil monks' sound instead which made my hubby roll out in laughter... ninu-ninu-ninu... ;P
  10. i have just as much boy friends and girl friends. but i like hanging out with the guys more, kasi pampered ako. ngehehe.
  11. i'm the focused-unfocused type. when i thought of doing something that i really love doing, all my energies will be into it. but then, whatever, i am doing at the moment which is less interesting for me will be unnoticed/discarded/etc. whatever is the appropriate term for treating something for granted until new interest sets in.
  12. i love to travel.. just proving why i got a mole in my foot. =) pinaglihi yata ako sa airport... basta, feel ko makigulo sa mga tao dun! hehehe.
  13. i love surprises!!!!!!! who doesn't??? hahaha. isama nyo na rin ang pasalubong... whatever it was, even how small or how weird it was... as long as it's pasalubong and something i didn't force you to bring home for me, abot sa dalawa kong tenga ang smile ko. of course i would never show how happy that gesture made me feel. pa-kiyeme kuno. hehehe.
  14. i love keeping memories in photos. wala lang, a photo couldn't capture all the fond memories behind but then it helps my mind recorder to turn on and then remember, reminisce and smile. i needed that boost since may pagka-ulyanin ako. =)
  15. if i didn't lose something which is very important, magtaka ka. kasi i always lose important things. good thing i still haven't lose myself...yet... hahaha.
  16. i'm a stingy person and a spender at the same time. if i want something so much, i save for it or use credit card and get it! i believe, i have the right to do so since i am working so damn hard and i deserve a little splurging once in awhile. this also means, i'm a bit stingy just to save for something i really, really want.
  17. i can sit infront of a computer for hours but i'd rather not spend a minute with a ill-mannered person.
  18. i am choosy when it comes to TV programs to watch but i just love teleseryes!
  19. i also love watching movies although i couldn't find the time to indulge on this hobby at this moment.
  20. i have weird food combo preferences. to name a few which i find as perfect combinations: peanut butter and butter in the same sandwich; paksiw and fried rice; peanut butter in banana; pickled cucumber and pork chop; ice cream and french fries (my movie theatre combi, hehe); cheese whiz in spaghetti, etc.
  21. i love love stories! be it movies, books, or real life stories.
  22. More Than You'll Ever Know of Michael Ruff is one song that always touch my heart (and makes me cry talaga). i relate that the Lord Almighty is singing that to me to remind me of His love.
  23. the song that always brings back a tinge of pain : Reaching Out of Gary Valenciano =(
  24. the song that makes me sigh : Kelan Kaya of Christian Bautista
  25. i'd rather have pillows on my sides than on my head.
  26. i like to make siksik to my hubby's side, especially before sleeping. hehe.
  27. i'd complete the list soon! hehe.
