pf chang's
. nice dinner the following day. loved the hot tea! [im such an addict] seriously! ill be back for more definitely. but that's not the only thing, the cheesecake, hmmmmm.. if it could have been just a little firmer, it would have snagged the 1st place in our list. oh well, maybe next visit. liked his new jeans. looking good. ;p snooze time when we got home.
friday called him to alabama. he'll be back sunday.

caricature***** we loved it! thanks v!
taking pics [no worries! ;p]
watched the fireworks
dinner
so rewind: he picked me up at home a little before 6.30. gas up, then breakfast at mcdo. drive began. got there 10. preferred parking. rides, pepperoni and cheese pizza for lunch. rides again. got soakingly wet! rides, the second duelling dragons got me a little fuzzy. cinnabon for some sugar rush. rides again. then dr. doom and the hulk. got the hulk pic. [nice]. we actually walked the entire park twice. [looking for charlotte's turkey leg] went to universal for the fireworks which were really nice. it was nice watching it with someone really special. =) dinner at [gosh, forgot the name of the place]. kinda fancy. we were actually concerned how we'll be able to have pictures, but we put our combined charm to work. heehee! we got pictures, good ones!
anyway, anyway, driving home, my hero was tired. so i took the wheels, from I4 west to st. john's bluff. i set another record, drove it for just a little over an hour i think. i was worried i'll be caught speeding. oh well.
so got home, took pics of our memorabilias, rested my legs and snooooooozzzed off.
that was one of the nicest, sweetest days. loved the pics! the caricature's a real winner! it was a
oh happy day! =) but saying i just had fun is an understatement. rides, walks, food, loooonnggg waits and everything in between were just as special.
picture day..
sunday
the pictures you see above. that's was the highlight of the day. then off to nuf for tennis with sfc. hmm, the sun was too shy, i didnt get my tan - at all, darn. oh well. then i think, mcdo for dinner. off to my house. steadily good.
electricity gone
I feel sleepy!!! I'm alone here at the office. I do have an excuse for a break. Anyway, I feel a headache is slowly creeping up on me. I know why, lack of sleep. there's always a valid reason.
so yesterday, after work, went home. my sisters kept teasing me why I was home. mmm, I said, "well something new". they said it is an unusual thing [home early alone], joe played tennis that night, I was too lazy to join them after I got off from work. Anyway, watched tv, ate dinner [pasta from maggianno's], watched more tv. eventually, kate started 'kicking' me out of the house since her friends were coming over. well, had nowhere to go. joe called and just had me come over. we're supposed to watch a movie but just when I parked my car when i got there - poof! electricity gone! Great, just great! =/ walked in, his parents teased me I brought in the darkness. funny! oh and his mom bought me something, I liked it a lot... =) so we just all hung out talking about whatever with the refreshing effect of candles and flashlights. after more than an hour of quality time with his folks, they said it was joe's turn. didn't end up watching at all, another time.
soC R A Z Y b!
now at work, alone with my headache. I wanted to wear my new shoes tonight, that is if we're going out. I've been very lazy. my gosh, im so bored. 4:07pm
got to have this.
yey
i have my unkymood back! and i got something new.
finally!! =) go all the way down..
big thanks to sharon!
where's my unkymood??
all the pictures below came from one of my bestfriends back home. nice surprise! made me happy. :)
all this when i am still with shell phils retail. miss those days and my friends.. knew i had to post some of them for happy thoughts.
after work, charlotte and i went to auntie doris' house to sell tickets. then we all had dinner. headed home. joseph came over. hung out in my house. loved the cb, talks and everything that came with it.
talked with my mom this morning. misses!
btw, last week, sunday, bought new shoes, two pairs! im such an emotional shopper. felt good.
shell days
happy things to blog about =)
that's me working at Shell Phils. >good thing my boss wasn't looking, he's the one at far right corner.. :)
i lost that necklace.. :(
one of my bestfriends..
thanks for sending all these pics. :)
mich! my best shopping friend! :)
maren!! my milo friend!
another one of those days..
gosh, my skin looked so fair before compared to now..
oh manila...
supposed to be ok
had a meeting with mr. d. >was supposed to go to carraba's for ms. hot/cold's talk. with the meeting, that was impossible. finished meeting just on time. grabbed lunch on our way to work. work - usual. after, practice at st. john's. went home early. had dinner, food from bennigan's (something new). joseph's off to his friend's bday party [that's what i think i heard him say]. movies with my sisters.
i was feeling inspired early this morning. the night burst my bubbles. oh well..
forget
blessed are the forgetful for they get the better even if they are blenders.
how happy is the blameless vessle's lot, the world forgetting by the world forgot, eternal sunshine of the spotless mind. each prayer accepted. and each wish resigned.
so much for my 2nd movie for tonight...
p.s. haven't heard from him yet
good things happen
monday brought me
good news! and i pray to God he'll watch every itsy-bitsy thing so things will work out fine.
did my house chores most part of the day. watched movie in between. had fun bickering with joseph. he was ranting how much time i was taking 'getting ready'. when i
finally was ready, he picked me up then off for a movie night! :) had dinner at outback. it almost broke my heart when he said cyclone chicken was not on the menu anymore. but lucky me, they turned it into cyclone pasta! all good. watched fantastic four. good movie. we went back to my house to rest after.
>cb to the next level.. oh my..
tanned
picking up from friday last week, so i went to attend my auntie's dinner thing, turned out it was ryan's bday. happy burpday! had some comforting talks with my auntie and uncle. it is always best to have someone wiser guiding you through. stayed there way later than expected. all good, being with them is always a good thing. after the dinner thing, i caught up with sfcs at jb's house to hang out with them. mad gab - im always too lazy to say the words. just lazy. black magic was more interesting. black magic, white magic, oh.. fun time! at almost 2 we got to split, joe drove me home. oh well...
saturday morning = work at 9am. :/
field work this time, had to be in fair, a barrio fiesta that is. my gosh, BUKID (which means FARM)! no poise necessary at all. i wore slacks and almost heels, good thing i got slippers in my car. i did good marketing for ms. hot/cold. and she didnt even show up. [what's new?] i burnt myself. i think i got darker by 2-3 shades. my sisters think it looked good, morena. well, when i was younger i was morena. oh well, i stare at my
tan
, it's okay. :) stayed until 5. we (sfc) were even supposed to do a number, waltz.. i knew the dance wasn't possible because of the absence of 'dancefloor'? so we skipped the dancing and did more marketing this time for the gk dance (worth my deeper tan). they just stayed for a total of i think 30mins, they left and i and charlotte+kate+nirath (our asian brother) stayed until 5pm. it was 91 degrees out there. imagine that...
to calm my weary newly-tanned arms, got home, took a long cool bath. and something new to refresh my weary soul as well, i went to attend a yfc meeting. all good, the talks, the praise and worship! i stood outside the hall but sang with my heart. i had fun just watching those kids. i wanted to do a sharing but time was not on my side. it's okay, if in another time, i will. i wanted to tell them that they must enjoy their youth while being good. and with the troubles i am going through right now, i wanted to tell them to live and enjoy while they have their parents beside them. it's difficult when you suddenly realize you are in charge of your own life. im being melodramatic here, i better stop. it's great to be independent, but sometimes you just wish you're 12 you dont bother what's happening in 5-10 years. i hope you get what i mean. damn, im getting old, err mature.. it's good to see them there and not going astray. something to smile about. god bless you all. :)
went to the chapel to calm my restless mind, said my prayers. joe joined me not too long after. talked about whatever. then had to leave the church. went to his house, i finally had the guts to tell his parents about my earthquake. i wanted to cry but i did not. my tears might have all dried up already. got some comforting words from them. [wont forget]. actually, joe and i were supposed to go meet up with my sisters and our club-friends that night and go club-hopping, got lazy, and surprisingly, i got a headache. i pulled out of the plan. anyway, going back. conversation was up til almost 3am, until i got a phone call from one of my friends. had to rush home. ooohh.. had to get some things straightened up. my muscles work. longgggg day. needed to rest. shhh... cb. :)
so sunday, i had to deal with the scorching heat by myself. at the bukid again from 1-5. sat the whole time and just chatted with this one guy who kept going to my booth. he started telling me his life story, i listened. then several people, around 6 came to my booth from a certain ministry. it seemed people actually come to me. :) talked to most of them about different things. i wasnt bored - at all. went home. i missed tennis. after mass, lounged at home [lounged??? yep, felt goooooddd. nice bath + movies!] hats off to charlotte, lawrence paid her a visit! yeeha! i had visitors too, joe and jema! we watched sky captain and the world of tom. after the movie, they had to got home because they were all dirty and stinky. [hmmm.. as joe said]. night then, fell asleep eventually.
what ifs
how do you deal with what ifs?
do you decide quickly or you take your time?
im getting tired of thinking and thinking and thinking and needing to decide. [long sigh..] oh well, got to get moving..
dinners
i am really fond of the emoticon i have up there..
anyway, last night after work, went to an auntie's house, just near my house to have dinner with them. felt like forever that last time we saw each other. did some catching up with them. they have been asking where i've been all this time. my gf missed me - a lot. awww..
so last night, dinner. i ate a chunk of salmon that i love my auntie for. right when i got there i asked for my salmon, right away she cooked it for me. (that's a lot of
right aways, ey?)she actually forgot but since she knew i love it, ora mismo! it was quite a lot for someone waif like me.
yeah had good dinner, but i missed joseph. didn't get to see each other last night. i actually invited him to dinner but we failed to call each other at the right time.
i told some of my friends that he's leaving for the af, one of them said af's boot camp isn't as hard as those of others (army, navy etc..) whatever dude!
i'll be at another auntie's house for another dinner. hmm. i hope krissy will be there. and because of that i'll be late for the household meeting. i'll catch up with you guys or girls.. errrr...
the only meal i had for the day is mcdo big breakfast + chocolates at work. i haven't fainted so it's okay. talked with my parents this morning, hmm..
im still blurry.. not perfect but ok. hopeful but still blurry.
cleaning up
thursday morning now.. cant sleep. and i have to be at work later at 10. oh well..
i finally have put some of my programming skills to work for my benefit. :) feels really nice, i got to customize my lay-out! :)
somehow i understood the lay-out program. you'll see it when you click on the template tab. intimidating at first but you'll find your way around it.
i feel loved. :)
dance practice earlier after work. my inner circle knew about the hope. i felt the support and happiness. im glad for having true friends. then dinner at village inn with joseph. then stayed at my house for awhile. i kept playing the same song the whole time, almost 50times i think by the time he left.
anyway, come on baby, say yes na!!!!! :) it's free - and you'll enjoy it - promise. :)
hopefully
yesterday was charlotte's bday. i knew she had fun. you go girl! you're one of my bestest friends! :) love you so!
the day before that, spent some quality time with my sisters. went to a meeting, then lunch at china gourmet. dropped off kate at school. then home. joseph came over and stayed at my house until we had to leave for the practice. then practice. did little dancing. he wore his dancing shoes for the first time, cutie! work out those calves baby! he's been excited. we went home, eventually fell asleep.
so yesterday, after work, (i went back to mag as requested by ms. hot/cold). i wasnt expecting id be staying the whole day, much later 8.30. so i was late for gym. then they didnt even let us in to the base, darn police people. he was pissed. so, we just ran from my house to kernan and back. stinky night. oh, today, i had some good news too.
something to be hopeful for. :) more
fun when we got home. i was very curious about several things. ;p cb that is. we're cool. :)
hope is always a good thing. :)
earthquake
okay so last friday, while i was at mgt, a little after lunch, i received a phone call that literally caused an earthquake in my life.
scared me big time. i cried for 3 hours straight. ive never been so shaken. it was too much too soon. i wasn't ready for it.
imagine this, you are on track, steadily moving on with your life, you seem to have everything you need. excited to experience the future then suddenly everything comes to a halt.
i told my inner circle about it. you know who you are.
keep your fingers crossed for me.
mag vs mgt
feels like a lifetime since my last post.. so im here.
last week was pretty much my internship at mgt, the company in mandarin. he made me start on a report on ethylene glycol (err what??) yeah, in my head, i had the same thing. ethylene glycol is a substance generally used as an antifreeze in automobiles. talked to several experts on EG. i know much about the industry it is in. oh well, i have not finished it yet, ill be back there monday next week. the people were ok. i had my own room. you know one thing that freaked me out, i called joseph several times during the day, then later on, he called me into his office and had me listen to one of the calls i made to one of the manufacturers of EG. sheessh! so we had our conversations in his tapes? freaked me out when he said, i want you to listen to this, then i heard my voice and all that. he said that was the only conversation he recorded. (not sure if he was lying - whatever!) the place was okay, i literally had to wake up sooo early, twice was 5am i think. and last week - i never had enough sleep. so much for an internship to impress my boss ey? bad timing.. but i pulled it off. was never late and kept my boss' ok sign on my work. i did pretty well, but still im not yet done with the report. let's see.
the people are ok, but definitely not as sunny as how we are here in magnolia. imagine this: magnolia- beaches, mgt-in a far secluded place, magnolia-overwhelming girl power, mgt-umm so-so (big boss is a man), chowtime: magnolia-no definite time but fun, mgt-definite time, ok. office: magnolia-casual and nice, mgt-tight environment. i missed my computer at magnolia when i was there. one very good thing about staying there? i get to go home really early - 5pm!!! at magnolia- i get off at 8. boo!!
for this week, im back here at magnolia, ms. hot/cold requested me in. she wants to keep me here. :)
we'll see..
happy 4th
i think i left off sunday night. just when i thought that i will be able to sleep reasonably better, i did not. i slept 4am monday morning. come 2am monday, mike called charlotte and asked her to go with him to eat. he was coming from the ritz that time. starving, i came with them. steak & shake. then went back home, watched little tv with everyone then dozed off 4am.
8.30 joe called me to pick them up. picked them up, drove them home (jema) then when we got to his house, his parents talked to me again. then i had to leave to fix up to attend his parents' picnic thing. we went together. had lunch there then left to go to practice at james' house all the way to the westside. i was seriously tired/sleepy, he drove ms. solara the whole time. practice. got to talk a little with m. after practice, went to crazy sushi to meet up with fellow sfcs for dinner. met some of sfc out-of-towners. supposed to watch a movie with all the others, fell through. i needed to stay in the car to start working on the manual/report thing. did, then joe went to the car to stay with me.
thank you! :) then people started to leave. grabbed some coffee [to jump-start my head] then brought jema home. we stayed at my house. i let him sleep the whole time i was reading. having him there sleeping kept me awake [sorry for the weird analogy]. drove him home afterwards. found it hard to sleep (almost 3am), eventually did. then woke up for today.
5.45 i had to get ready for mgt. all good, got here really early, 7am. an hour earlier. good thing my soon-to-be boss did not catch me yawning during our almost-whole-day meeting. [i was good at it] worked on orientation and other stuff. it's nice here, i got my own room. done by 3. soon ill be heading out of here. my eyes are starting to hurt. then tonight we'll hit the gym. :)
i hope it's not raining when i get out. i miss coffee, i miss touching her! [my dog]
no fireworks for me last night - well, not entirely, just glimpses of them.. next time..
hey, i'm still at work. packing things up, trying to cover monique's and charlotte's backs next week. i am pretty excited for next week [for a change. :) ]. mgt here i come.
so saturday, i was at work. work work work.stayed pretty late too last night. went home. talked with m. met up with some friends at the ritz then went to twisted to meet up with other friends. with charlotte the whole time. charlotte kept telling me i am very lucky in terms of parking spaces [umm ya, everytime i go to the ritz, i get that same exact spot, very near the entrance, nice..]
got home around 2. think around 3 my head was drifting away..
come sunday, again i find myself at work. now 10.41pm, i am still here. [i deserve a break.. ;p]
so ya, readied pretty much everything for ms. hot/cold's finance's for this month. [guess i do care about her. ]
home past 11.30. pretty tired. did some reading. oh my gosh, how i missed reading. i rem back home that i can stay hours inside my room reading just whatever. usually magazines because of how "happening" it is. [reminds me i should have just taken med in college] let me give you a brief history. since i was eight, i knew i wanted to be a doctor, medical doctor. either a pediatrician or a cardiologist. [see, i had it all planned out since i was 8] ill take human biology then major either in pedia or cardio. i have always been excited. then come highschool grad, my dad "encouraged" me to take something in line with business so i can take over in the future [since i am the eldest]. not a bad deal anyway, i took it. got through engineering [ i miss my friends!!!!!!] suddenly i forget why i had to tell you all these, oh ya.. reading. i figured reading is a big part if you are taking med. i miss my books back home. i wonder what my mom did to my 'investments' (mag collection that is). well i've started my new 'investments' here, heehee! i am developing i huge fondness of this cerain mag, not a fashion magazine in particular but i am greatly impressed by the articles. nice!!! it is not one of those you can browse through while waiting for your turn to pay in a grocery store, it's pretty 'exclusive' (?)
from what i remember, my wonderful does not fancy reading. it's okay, i'll do the eyework. ;p
froglets and insectitos. i kept hearing the frogs' croaks everywhere today. [cant help but say ewww..-everytime. i think charlotte wants to shut me up]. the sky keep crying. hush pls, you'll be fine. had a tijuana flats fest earlier with charlotte. chum to quesadillas! happy 4th of July!
i miss daydreaming... oh well.
he's coming home today!!! yeepee!! :)
introducing...
let me introduce you to.. mr. joseph devera.
my wonderful.
i like this one :) it's a keeper.
i wore my little black dress no. 3 that night.
my back did not ache much because he held it just right.
he wore my rings the whole night.
yep, that's him i belong to.. :)
friday afternoon: was in tears earlier. monique just gave me a hug before she left the office. she just sent me to tears when she made me realize today is pretty much my last day with them. since i'll try to move to a new company much more suited to my engineering degree.
it sucks man. she has been a huge chunk of my life when i moved here. she's an angel. i love her to death. i dont really know how things are gonna be in terms of this work issue. if i would really have to move to mgt, she wished me luck but then again if i end up staying here that would be great (just as she said it). oh.. sniff... love you monique, so much.
i realized how unfeeling i can be before coming to face a certain situation. oh well, now i feel it. it's up to you now Lord, you call the shots. :)
left work past 8.30, then went home. grabbed some food. then drove to assumption to do a vigil. felt nice. after i went to cuba libre with friends from sfc. just danced 2 songs, think it was salsa/rhumba/chacha?? with james. then for the most part margarrette and i talked. [i miss my bestfriend..] i love you margarrette, i'll miss you when you leave. thanks for the friendship. :) bumped into a friend too at cuba libre (so much for a first timer ey..) all good. on my way home, ryan navarro called, got to talk for awhile, then acelyn then joseph. talked until i got home. then we know he had to sleep then. ate sinigang for dinner then watched a little tv. i found myself falling asleep at 2am. all good.
saturday morning: im here at the office - working, yep, on a day after my supposed last day with ms. hot/cold. i missed tennis with sfc this morning because of work. no prob. oh well..
