been a month
It's been a month since I updated my blog. :(
Lots of things to add like my recent trip to the northern part of the Philippines (Ilocos norte and Ilocos Sur), and my Metropost articles that you can catch on leading coffeeshops around the Metro like UCC, Coffee Bean and many others. I wrote the cover story of the third volume, billed by Phoemela.
so little time have to rush out. :(
will be back for more tomorrow.

2. napagkalaman akong koreana nung nasa Germany ako. :)
3. inggit ako sa baby sister ko. nung bata pa ako pag nag momonologue ako salamin lng kaharap ko, siya bongga naka cam na.
4. madalas ako magpass out nung high school pag di ako makahinga at hinihika ako tapos nung college hindi na. weird.
5. ayoko sa insect na maraming paa. ahas at lion na lang kesa ipis o o gagamba.
6. d aq nakapaglaro ng piko at kahit na anong outdoor game nung bata ako pero mabilis akong tumakbo.
7. at dahil d ako lumalabas sa loob ako ng bahay naglaro ng ten/twenty kalaro ko mga silya pag tira ko sumabit ang paa ko sa garter kaya humampas ang silya sa pisngi ko. ayun Black eye
8. maraming nasigawan ang parents ko na kalaro, kaibigan, kaklase, ka org at kung sinu-sino pa. strict daw sila.takot lahat ng friends ko sa bahay.
9. nagtampo ako sa dad ko nun dahil ayaw niya ako sumali sa singing contest sa TV tapos may sinuportahan siyang ibang kachoir ko. iyak ako ng iyak ayun nainlove ako sa nagcomfort sa akin. wahahahaha.
10. may ex ako na hindi ko na matandaan ang surname. first name na lang at face. hahaha random ba un?
11. nung 1996 sinundan ko ang PBA kasama ng tatay ko after that ayoko na.
12. nanghabol ako ng snatcher at sumigaw ako ng bongang bonga sa kalsada ng pedro-gil taft para mahuli xa. nabawi ko ang fone ko. :) nabugbog xa.
13. 3x akong nawalan ng fone. nung una buong bag sa SM manila, 2nd nabuksan bag ko za quiapo, 3rd nalaglag yata. huhuhu.
14. worst ung 3rd fone kong nawala 1 day pa lang sa akin. :(
15. pag complete kaming 4 sisters sa bahay super duper sa ingay. palibhasa lahat kumakanta kaya agawan ng mic. :)
16. naaksidente ako sa kalikutan ko nung grade 2 ako. putok kilay ko. :( pero bad ako sinisi ko ung classmate ko. nagalit si teror dad ko kaya ayun pinagalitan ung classmate ko. naguilty naman xa. naguilty din ako nung sinisigawan siya pero d ako umamin. :( bad me!
17. adik ako sa ghostfighter at hunter x hunter. gagawin ko lahat maging totoo lang sila.
18. umiyak ako ng balde sa isang church concert/play na ginanapan ko nung highschool ako. siyempre sabi ni direk eh.
19. since highschool until now gusto ko ng v-cut, piknik na red at super asim na sampaloc. :)
20. wala pang nakakabreak sa 1st love ko. my first love is the longest running relationship i ever had.
21. takot na takot si mama nung may nagbarilan sa tapat bahay namin nung 3 years old pa lang ako. kaya sabi ko kay mama, "Ma wag ka mag alala ssi FPJ lang un"
22. makulit ako pero mas makulit pa ako lalo pag walang tulog, hyper to the nth level. :)
23. 3 years old pa lang ako kinakanta ko na ung one moment in time ni whitney houston sa mga school program. tapos nun nagsayaw ako ng chinese fan dance.mas marami ang friedns kong matanda kesa bata nung bata ako :)
24. fave song ko nung bata ako - Mga kababayan ko, bilib ako sa kulay ko ako ay pilipino - kinakanta ko ung habang pinilipit kong mag vibrato ang boses ko.
25. when I learned about my lolo's death, I ran (a very fast run) in circles (I wasnt able to count how many big circles did I make)along BIG FOOT fields in Cebu before I cried my heart out. I was in Cebu at that time for Philipine Idol audtions where I worked as a researcher/segment producer and coordinator. had to fly back ahead schedule to reach my lolo's cremation.
Oh diba English ung last.

missing my picasa
Haven't updated my picasaweb account for days now. :( becasue gmail's extra services is now blocked by our IT group. although I can certainly upload anywhere I've been used to doing that here in the office if my spare time would allow me. really miss the luxury of saving my latest pictures in the cyberspace where I can access it anywhere and give the link to anyone. sad... first I thought that my blogspot, this very page was blocked too but now its back. :) now I am still waiting for my picasa to come back if not I have no other choice but to find a suitable alternative. :(

merely nothings
I still dont have a topic to write on but I opened my blogging dashborad anyway, and here I am writing whatever it is that comes into my mind.
right now my mind is in...
food - not because I am hungry but since I am the writer for IFEX (CITEM's food show) this quarter I have to come up with delicious words to entice our attendees.
hmm whatelse?
I am dying to start and read my latest books such as charmed episode 1, complete twilight series (not that i havent read it yet but I am excited to read it as a tangible book, only read the entire four stories as virtual E-BOOKS), and the recent Sydney sheldon book that ate Diane gave me. she also gave me a collection of anne rice books and 2 other intriguin authors. Whew thats a long list to read but I am uber excited.
and then what?
:) dont know what else. my mind is filled with things but I dont think it deserve a place in the cyberspace.

you're TOO beautiful for me...
the phrase that made my day...
what is it my beautiful girlfriend?
I miss you gorgeous...
my violet suits me now. like a royalty in the arms of her knight. Chivalrous words that pampers my heart. :)

the shrimp and the lollipop vs. Jack and Mina
This one is kinda funny... for me. :)
some people were just good at calling names, Imagine branding people according to their food counterparts :)
Shrimp - someone who have a sexy body but was not blessed with a lovely face. (just analyze ok!) well this one has been up for sometime now then I was curious what could be the opposite be called then finally Rommel enlightened me.
Lollipop - pretty face but... (you know the rest :)
well if you really think of it the analogy is good but the intentions are bad. :O hehe

How about Jack and Mina?
If you already saw a pretty girl with a not so pretty boy then you already met Jack and Mina. Jack as in Jackpot
Mina as in Minalas.
haha it sounds funny but its somewhat mean for me.
