my birthday month is here again.

September 8, 08 - updates

one week after i wrote my september wishes blog. dami nnman happening, my sister suffered an injury haay.. wawa naman xa.

on the other hand may happy news din, my cousin sienna gave birth last Sept 2, b-day nya yun kasi kami ni Sienna ang september tandem ng pamilya Villanueva, now may dagdag pang isa. Her child, my inaanak, wala dad si Hailee Amidala Villanueva, pero she doesn't need a jerk dad when she have lots of mom's and tita's like me, my sisters and my cousins plus the whole clan as well.

tapos mejo narerealize ko i have a very troubled friend. she is introducing me as her best friend pero dami nya pretentions and lies na sinasabi sa amin ng aming college best friends. nakakalungkot kasi true friends should serve as your solstice in time of crisis diba, pero how can she take na pati sa amin magsinungaling. hmmmmm

stressed yata ako. very new sa akin dahil im supposed to be a jolly person. although people surrounding me might not feel it, i can feel it in myself, lucky for me may isang tao na nafefeel nya na wala talga ako sa mood, "nyl" does that for me. kaya lang isa rin siya sa iniisip ko maybe that's why he can feel it, kasi he's one of the reasons. hehehe o ako lang nagbibigay ng problem sa sarili ko. hindi ko alam.

as for my wishes, here's the next batch of wishes that I would really love to have.

7. gumaling na si leia. I want to see her na masigla ulit, di takot gumalaw, di madalas umiyak at ang kanyang tawa na puno ng buhay.

8. A day-out, sana vacation kaya lang parang imposible so kahit na day-out na lang. trip to tagaytay, corregidor, o kahit san lang na makakapagrelax ako, away from the hsutle and bustle of the city.

9. gusto ko ng kasiguraduhan. matanggap ang mga dapat at malaman kung anu ba talaga ang GUSTO KO. Even writing this blog is hard for me. Di nman ako materialistic kaya puro kababawan lang ang mga sinasabi ko pero deep inside im delving into deep waters.

10. para nman wish na alam kong baka friends ko ang makabigay. complete series na lang ng charmed. :)
___________________________________________________________

it's the first day of September and it's my birthday month again. My August wasn't such a hit but it's still a happy month.

Siyempre my birthday month entitles me to write another wish list. hahaha. i just want to make this traditional, like last year I wrote one and I got SOME of my wishes. :)

I can't believe na mag 12 na ko this year :0

ok seriously now, anu kaya ang manguyayari sa pagpasok ng aking 24th year.

rewind tayo... Anu b nangyari nung 23 ako?

ahm, ang dami kong offers na di ko alam if its opportunity wasted o right decision.
2. na regular nman ako kaya carry na din.
3. nag loan ako sa pag-ibig so finally a property under my name ay pinoprocess na and dapat magtipid para mabayaran ang utang. :)
4. masaya naman ang lovelife dami up's and downs pero masaya naman kahit maraming confusions haba pa din ang hair ko. (innistretch ko kasi)
5. restless. parang on the go ako lagi. nakakahingal pero ok lang ngayon maging fast pace ang life ko at the prime of my youth. :)

Dami ngyari yung iba ayaw ko na alalahanin, yung iba I know kahit kalimutan ko maalala ko pa din.

enough with the drama...

wish list na para d nman ako makatulog sa pagsusulat. pero I know I have to be careful on what i wish for yan ay based sa novel that i just recently finished. "wink"

1st wish
peace of mind. tama pang miss universe ang dating ng first wish ko. feeling ko kasi nstress na ko lately eh. kailngan ko ng nirvana.

2. 3 days na tulog, parang from good friday to easter sunday, maging sleeping beauty lang ako, para malaman ko na ulit meaning ng rest.

3. white icing cake o caramel cake. hehe layo from my first two wishes. pero gusto ko lang ng cake sabi nga ni leia, "Hindi mu birthday pag wala kang cake!"

4. mag enchanted kingdom! kasama ang mga sis ko o kaya c... cnu? secret basta dapat may kasama ako. :)

5. sana this time makumpleto ko na meron na ako ng 1,2, 4 and 7. ng hARRY POTTER, friends 3,5 and 6 na lang po.

6. sidney sheldon, or other interesting reads pa. :)

(will update isip pa aketch!)

Ber na, meri mismas na din hihihi.

try uli...

Habang nakahiga ako sa aming sofa at nanonood ng TV tinatapos ko din ang isang novel na actually matagal ko ng nasimulan. unang basa ko ng The mermaids chair ni sue monk kidd medyo nabigatan ako kaya huminto akala ko nabore ako o masyado akong na ewan (d q alam na feel q) sa intimate affair ng isang girlalu sa isang monk. tapos ayun narealize ko sayang naman ang book kung d q itutuloy eh nakuha ko lang ng libre sa office yun, sayang ang mga literary moments na lagi ko pa nman hinahanap so sabi ko for the sake of art tatapusin ko. Sinamantala ko na may sakit ako kahapon kaya binasa ko na, naisip ko nabigatan lang ako nung una kasi may sarili akong worries na iniisip ayoko ng dalhin ang isipin ng character hehe. pero kahapon habang may sakit ako binasa ko na lahat. Ayun ok nman pala sad lang talaga siya at mabigat sa puso dahil sa mga emotional baggage na dala ng characters therefore kung anu ano ang ginawa nila sa sarili nila. ung bida naki affair sa monk samantalang gwapo daw ang asawa yung mother nya nag dismembr ng daliri and kung anu ano pa.

moral of the story: wag itago ang mga bagay na baka pagsisihan in the future, kung may dapat sabihin sabihin na agad mahirap pag naipon, ang hirap kaya mag recollect ng sarili... un lang po

pa-try lang!

Ngayon pa lang ako magsusulat ng Tagalog, ay hindi sa GMA 7 para sa Liga ng Kababaihan may nasulat akong konting segments at para din sa I love Philippine idol ng ABC 5 may ilang episodes din na kasama ang script ko.

Kaya lang pakiramdam ko hindi ako marunong magsulat ng Tagalog o baka maarte lang ako kaya laging English at Taglish ang kadramaham ng mga sinusulat ko. :)

Naisip ko tuloy sa bago kong office, lahat ng PR, collaterals at kung anu ano pa na sinusulat ko araw-araw english ang gamit ko. (xempre, foreigner and gusto naming makabasa ng mga ito) Dapat pala pag nagblog ako minsan Tagalog naman para masanay ako. :) hahabol na ako sa Buwan ng Wika ngayong Agosto at susulat ng mga Blog na tagalog. Huli man daw at magaling maihahabol din.

Haha! Sa totoo lang hindi naman talaga Buwan ng Wika ang inspirasyon ko, siguro naiinggit lang ako, binasa ko kasi ang blog ni Sir Perci, dati kong boss sa ABC 5, naaliw ako kaya basa ako ng basa tapos nakita ko pa yung link ng blogsite ni Mr. Jun Lana. ayun naaliw pa lalo ako tama yung title ni sir Perci sa link (blog ni Jun na sobrang galing!). Binasa ko from start to finish walang mabigat na topic, lahat magaan at nakakatawang basahin. korek! nakakatawa as in Tumatawa ako mag isa habang nagbabasa buti na lang sanay na mga officemates ko na lagi akong tumatawa, hindi nila iisiping naaning na ako. Naisip ko tuloy sana may biglang pumasok sa isip ko na ganito tapos susulat ko din. para maiba naman hindi puro nararamdaman ko laman ng blog ko pwede din nman observation at kung anu-ano pa.

namiss ko din yung industriya na dati akong kasama, ngayon kahawig ng konti pero iba pa din ang linya. :(

Haaaay! Hindi ko alam kung nagddrama ako o inggitera lang talaga ako. :( :)

the wedding digest

This is my very first article that was published on a glossy magazine! :)

^laughs^ have fun reading! posted it just to share the excitement I felt when I saw my name on a different circulation rather than websites and newspapers. :)

You can catch the whole mag at any National Bookstore or other bookshops.

in between stress, laughter and hangover

After hectic work schedules and deadly deadlines of concepts and articles comes stress, and what do I do to soothe the nagging feeling of “I want to leave my Job because its stressing me out” is a nice hot or cold drink from my ultimate coffee shop - the coffee bean and tea leaf at the Robinsons Place Manila. After the consumption of a satisfying drink and a partner pastry, I am on back on my mood again. Happy to write about lots of things and even work related stuffs, my coffee bean is a certified stress reliever.

In the middle of stress and coffee comes the best part of the week – Thursday. Me and my best of friends were enjoying a routine we have been doing for almost a year now, meeting and coffee-ing (if there is such a word) at our favorite Coffee bean branch. We tagged it as the Thursday Club. We update ourselves of the weeks adventure and mishaps, its what we consider the secret brew of our friendship, constantly being there and always having time for one another.

After refreshing coffee and chat sessions we then go to other hang outs for a taste of alcohol and when we are full of it there is only one place that can sober us up, of course its still our coffee bean.

prophecy or hoax?

E-mails, sites and other circulations are quickly spreading on the net about how future events were foretold by a Brazilian named Juseleeno Nobulega da Roose. Some of the infamous predictions that he made were the death of Princess Diana and the Indonesia-tsunami catastrophe that killed thousands.

And included in his list of predictions which by the way he dreamt with precise date and place is the July 18 2008, 8.1 earthquake in the Philippines. To top it all some seismic activities were now being experienced in the country like last sunday night and just this morning. Whew! I don't know if those were proofs that something big will come or it's just coincidence.

dont really know whether to believe it or not, haaay I just pray that its a hoax. by the looks of his predictions it seems that a series of chaotic events were about to happen on the next few years up to the year 2014 that would almost wipe out the entire human race. Scary!

haaaay! well I just want to be ready. there's no harm in taking extra precautionary measures right?

i miss blogging!

been ages since I last blogged and i missed it. but actually i dont have anything to say just want to blog again and savor the feeling hehe.

carrie bradshaw

Answered this who among the sex and city vixen are you in the blogthings site (everyhting about quizzes) and i got...

You Are Most Like Carrie!
You're quirky, flirty, and every guy's perfect first date.But can the guy in question live up to your romantic ideal?It's tough for you to find the right match - you're more than a little picky.Never fear... You've got a great group of friends and a great closet of clothes, no matter what!Romantic prediction: You'll fall for someone this year...Totally different from any guy you've dated.

I am really looking forward to this prediction.

Sucess!

Finally! i fell in and out of love with a Jerk! i almost thought that i would not live to see this day, that time will come and pass and my heart will still long for this one person. But now the dreaming is over and i cant describe how much relief not to be imprisoned to him once and for all. Hmmmm after everything that he'd done I saw his true face only just now, dont need to elaborate more all i know is I am sure now that I am finally free. Geroff me and mah sisters!

Thanks but no thanks!

Hint! read among my blogs and see Mementos of your Existence! i was still a fool when I wrote that. Now all i need to do is concentrate on my choosing game!

TORN

Feeling like a fool

I am like Rapunzel with my long dark hair…

Or maybe I’m a schizophrenic with my two altering personalities…

Can also be a surfer riding two waves…

Haaaaay, simply put I am torn between two lovers kaya nga feeling like a fool ang drama ko ngayon.

I have two suitors with almost the same come on lines to entice me to love them, but this is not a long hair feeling anymore. Pressure, pressure and pressure. Para akong na trap sa loob ng pressure cooker!

I sometimes wish I’d rather not chose. They are both persistent on what they claim as their feelings for me but I can’t seem to decide on what to do.

All I need is a love that can knock me off my feet but how if I always end up getting bored, looking for more when actually it’s all presented in my face. Darn this heart sure has a way of confusing my thoughts. I am a mind person I decide with my mind and not with my heart but both can’t seem to settle on one.
