Happy Holidays!

see you all again next year.

inside looking out, outside looking in

i attended 2 consecutive christmas parties in the last two days. one at my new office and yesterday at my old beloved department. the title of this entry says it all. i was like a stranger at my new office, an observer, on the inside yet longing to be on the outside, somewhere else. while at the old home i was now an outsider, looking at what used to be when i was on the inside.

sometimes i wonder if i should just stay away from events like that. so as to forget all the bitterness i feel, the 'dapat kasali ako dun' or the 'dapat alam ko yun' statements.

but back in jerry's car, joyride to grace's place, to nhila's then mine, the feeling of belonging comes back, yet somehow different.

ballpen

people who give ballpens as exchange gifts have no imagination. and it's not even the sign pen type. they should have just given the minimum amount of the requirement in cash.

i for one would not be caught dead giving a ballpen. kahit pa parker sha.

being a scrooge. me bad.

party party

went to two christmas parties. twas a blast. thanks to my 'sisters' for the down time spent eventhough y'all tortured me with your mommy, anak and S.I. jokes. thank you ha. hehe. (kung ano ang S.I. just ask the sisters, that is if you figure out who they are. isa pang hehe).

as usual the unang gimik kids(if you can call us kids still), laugh trip til 5 AM. plus i dunno where shaider and annie came from but ayan nabinyagan ko na kayo mwahaha. but i do hope you guys figure out kung ano ba talaga kayo... (alien o pulis kalawakan? figure it out Annie before showing your undies! *lol*)

two more christmas parties to go, 2 more exchange gifts (kainis ang nabunot ko dito sa defartment namin) and then its a hohoho to bulacan. gosh i'll miss my SO. waaah...

last saturday

it just dawned on me yesterday why saturday was very important for him. i went somewhere for the very first time, and that first was with him while he has been to places he has never gone to before with me a gazillion times.

and also for the first time my patience didn't run out. there was a heavy down pour, we were sopping wet, long line for a ride home and my damned bladder was bursting! ang haba ng pisi ko i tell you.

all in the name of ... eek ang mushy ko nanaman.

What Does Your Birth Date Mean?

cackling chickens

the term came to mind when i heard these girls laughing their asses out inside the mrt coach i was riding in. actually they were on the other side of the train but i could still hear them 'cackling' from where i stood.

how come some people can guffaw like that in public places as if they own the world? so what do you do about cackling chickens? feed them chicken feed. weh.

wonderfully wicked saturday.

happy birthday my dear munch munch. *lol*

4 weddings and my hang up

ivy got married last saturday. she was one of the first people i met during freshie enrollment in UP and fortunately we were blockmates. and became best friends. she's the first too among my closest college buddies to get married and to get me as a part of the entourage. i was all nervous lighting up the candle (took me two tries) and i had to turn the fan away from it upon gail's (ivy's hubby)instructions.


ang candle sponsor *bow*

i was there with my BF and it got us to thinking what would we do if we did get married (though i still shudder at the thought). even the people at the office got into the subject after i related to them what happened at the wedding. three people at the Talent Center are marrying next year. i still could not imagine marching down the aisle in my white gown with at least a hundred eyes on me. i can't see myself making ridiculous poses for pictorial sessions (yeah me the phone cam addict i know.) and i can't bring myself to think of the money that's gonna be involved for that one event only. gah! i mean saving up for so long then boom, you're married and you start saving up all over again. getting married means growing up and i dunno if i am all grown up for those kinds of things.

my mom is also bugging me on the subject. with my younger sis' engagement and my older sister's not so glamorous family situation, she has asked me if i am willing to go into an arranged marriage so that i could have a better life in the US. she doesn't want me suffering like my ate. guess what my answer is? well if you know me you'd say no. i am pretty independent and my mom knows that. and though she wants that she won't force me. it is after all my life. and moving to the states isn't always a better life. i dunno if i can still say that a few years from now but you can throw rocks at me later if i do change my mind. but i know she only wants the best for me and my sisters.

forgive me for babbling. there are a lot of complications in getting hitched i know. but this is just me getting started with the things at the top of my head. i have a lot of hang-ups really. one reason would be coming from a broken family and my mom raising us single handedly.

sabi ko nga kay ivy di ba pwedeng "surprise! kasal na kami!" na lang? hehehe...

on a lighter note

dropped by katie's blog just a few minutes ago and saw an interesting bit. pagaya katie ha. :)

timeline tag anyone?

10 years ago
i was a second year journalism student at UP Diliman, just discovering that i have a knack for computers (should have taken graphic design or programming), applying sa UP MCO, and crushing on arki. haha...

5 years
i jumped eyes closed into the entertainment industry, becoming a PR writer for you know where. i think curse ata yung nangyaring yun hehehe...

A year ago
my heart was getting broken by some jerk of a guy. discovered the singles thread sa pex. met new friends.

Yesterday
i had dinner with joy. and pondering what the future holds for us(abroad na ba joy?). yummy new york fries though.

Tomorrow
i'll be the candle sponsor at my college best bud ivy's wedding.

Today
i was pissed off by my landlord. missed my B. coffee in an hour with some of the f4fu mods(semi retired na ata kami lahat).2 deadlines still pending. hugging my B later.

I'm tagging: cherry, anche, nhila, ivy wu, and twinnie sophia.

highblood

can i just take a whack at my landlord, knock some sense into him?

he likes making surprise texts to me and my sister either he's dropping by morning or evening the same day. and whats annoying is that we have told him like a gazillion times that we both have work and no ones at home in the mornings. how hard is it to remember that? plus i'd appreciate it if he gives a day or two notice when he's coming by because the money we pay him doesn't grow on trees outside the apartment. i have to go to the bank and get it.

now tell me should i or should i be not pissed off?

cindy the perky

my sister bought home cindy the perky. i fell in love.


who in their right mind would name a fashion mag cindy the perky? well the koreans did.

the latest in korean fashion. i've been searching for mags like this high and low. but alas the mag can only be bought abroad. *sigh*


i'm so green with envy.

and my gosh, for the arirang deprived person like myself, it was exciting to see my fave korean stars like...


jo in sung and kim ha neul for a korean hair product

and


my favorite after BoA, Lee Hyo Lee for a cellphone brand i think.

it is her right?



and for my friendships out there, would i forget your favorite Rain?


rain rain go away...joke :)

what's sad about it too is that everything is in hangul. waahhh...
so to anyone out there who visits korea soon (kahit na sa HK pahanap naman...hint hint tina bebe hehe) make pasalubong to me ha.
