i agree!
Friday, June 20, 2008i’m swamped with work but i read this from somewhere and it really caught my attention.
don’t let anyone become a priority in your life,
when you are just an option in theirs….
makes sense nga naman. :)
i have been to London to visit the queen
Monday, June 16, 2008i wish! hahaha. but i have been to these places just for kicks:
manila ocean park
i enjoyed our visit to the oceanarium despite of these two flaws: one, it was too hot. and two, it was bitin.
i wish the oceanarium was cooler. i was a bit annoyed because it was hot outside and inside wasn’t any better. who would want to be perspiring while looking at all those fish na fresh na fresh under water? maybe the best time to visit the park would be after sunset.
kulang pa din ang fish. i didn’t see a horseshoe crab nor a hammerhead shark. i think it still lacks “awesome” factor.
manila bay dining cruise
nothing really extraordinary about this. but it was something i’ve never done before and something i was interested to experience so it was fascinating for me. el cheapo cruise!
mababaw lang talaga ako. we were able to watch the fireworks display at the mall of asia so it was like a bonus.
el pirata
pirates of the carribean inspired bar in eastwood. i love this bar and hate it at the same time. love it because we stayed there for almost 3hours but spent only P320 (bucket of beer and calamares). hate it because it wasn’t alive enough.
guilly’s (morato)
we left the bar at 4am and the place was still alive and kickin’. love the fact that we were able to even take a nap there. thanks to their very comfy seats. hahaha. now i know that when you’re drunk and tired, you can really sleep anywhere no worries about poise. hahaha. interesting fact though, even if i was really super sleepy everytime low was being played talaga naman nabubuhay ang dugo ko. hahaha.
next time out of town naman!
first ever ube night
Thursday, June 12, 2008my dear friend jo was one of the very first people who greeted me on my birthday. and i must say, ang mensahe niya ang may pinakaatake sa puso. i quote: we will always be here for each other. aawww…. thanks bru!
anyway, last night was our first ube night. we have decided that we would go out at least once a week. wala lang bonding bonding lang. she was super uber late but i think she made up for it by being very patient with me. she was already starving to death but i was determined to look for a new phone. we were successful naman. we found the one…. my i-am-in-love-with-this-phone.
it’s supposedly for techie people but i’ve always wanted to have a palm so finally after so many years i own one! yipee! (if you wish hard enough and long enough, your wish will eventually be granted. yey!)
we were walking around the mall like crazy people high on happy pills. everything seems to be funny even if they are not. i was super tired but quite happy when i got home. that was really the best way to end an otherwise dull day.
realizations
Wednesday, June 11, 2008half-baked ….
after hoping for something hard enough and long enough, it was eventually given to me. but i think next time i should be more specific with the things that i hope for. otherwise, i will not be able to gain optimal satisfaction from it.
benefit of the doubt? yeah right!
just when you think you can let your guard down, people behave in an obscure manner that triggers the walls up button. i should really trust my intuition when it comes to people. the benefit of the doubt does not really work for me.
haste makes waste
i should practice the “pause” regularly as in walang palya.
more of my so-called realizations in the coming days.
bahala na!
Monday, June 9, 2008a few years back i had a very ideal vision of my life at 25. 25 was my ideal age. at 25, i was thinking that i would have this very successful career, earning a lot of moolah, and living the high life. but from where i am now, i think i still have a long way to go. actually, i think i am facing a deadend. i don’t know where to go. i don’t know where i’m heading. quarterlife crisis maybe. all i do is keep on moving, hoping that what i do will eventually lead me somewhere. at the same time, i think where i am right now is where fate wants me to be. my vision is different than life’s plans for me. the gap between the two causes so much frustration. and this frustration makes me realize that if i want to keep my sanity i should just let things be.
i keep on saying that i will rock the 25 club and that is what i plan to do. i keep on hoping and expecting for the things that i want to happen that i get too disappointed because they don’t. but what the heck, why on earth will i take life seriously when nobody gets out alive?
i will try the happy go lucky approach (if i can).
kanina i was feeling sulky but now i have realized that maybe i don’t know exactly what will make me happy and if i will ever reach a truly happy stage but i do know what makes me unhappy. so what makes me unhappy, i will stay away from. bahala na lang ang buhay. di ko na lalabanan, mangyayari naman ang mangyayari. :)
the power of words
Thursday, June 5, 2008
- there are words better left unsaid
- sometimes what you don’t say is worth more than what comes out of your mouth
- sometimes it’s not about what you say but how you say it
- tact should be exercised at all times regardless of who you are and what you feel
wala lang
i got this from ade’s blog. just for kicks i tried it since my birthday is in a couple of days anyway. what does my birthdate mean for my love life?

What Does Your Birth Date Mean For Your Love Life?
well, well, well.
why do they design clothes like that?
i went around the mall during lunch and naturally i tried on some clothes. why are blouses super haba? and why are dresses super ikli? kulang sa tela and sobra sa tela. i find it really weird.
playing teacher
Saturday, May 31, 2008i have always wanted to teach college students. i’m happy that last thursday and friday, tiger woods, inc. gave me the opportunity to do that.
i volunteered for a summer education program not knowing that the students would be interns. when i signed up for the task, i was thinking that i would teaching new hires of the company. so when i was informed that i was chosen from the list of volunteers, i was ecstatic. and then they said that it was going to be for interns - college students - from la salle and i was like HUWAT! i had two options: decline because after all saying yes would mean i would have to miss two meetings on friday or just give it a go laban lang ng laban when an opportunity knocks.
i enjoyed myself immensely, extremely tired at the end of the day but still looking forward to do it again the next day. for those two days i was up at 4:30 in the morning so i won’t be late for class. kulang pa sa tulog because i prepare the night before for the class. that’s how excited i am. i don’t think i’ve been that excited to do something in a long time.
i was deeply concerned of course about my students. it was my first time to handle such a class. i was concerned that i lack expertise and teaching experience, and that would affect what they’ll learn. the feedback is good news naman. i got very high marks so i guess that answers my concern. i am very thankful that they were generous in the ratings they provided but i have to admit that i think i could have done better. i still have a long way to go if a career in the academe is what i want in the future.
to the interns, thank you very, very much. i’ll see you around. i wish you all well. it was kinda cool to be called "miss" by very cute students. hahaha.
