December = Pressure

Whoah, month of December is surely a busy month for almost everyone. Good thing I have bought almost everything for some gift giving on Christmas - saves time and effort when everyone is busy rushing to the mall, falling in line for gift wrapping and everything in between.

Never had a full sleep today but has spent quite nice few hours at the mall scouting for few things to buy. I feel so tired and ironically restless at the same time - for being sleepless and for wanting to go around the mall - i don't know with my self - hehehe, naguguluhan din ako.

Few days more and I'll be crossing out few people on my list. Konting gala na lang and ikot sa mall - I'm done na with my Christmas shopping - whew

I'm excited to see and buy the Belle De Jour Planner - hope I find time to get one - oh, soon!

I don't know if making sense with this blog - but nonetheless, i'll keep posting. :)

Enjoy!

Buhay Baboy

ehehe, medyo tambay lang ngayon sa bahay - walang work eh - I'm on leave till Wednesday kaso I'm part of the Trainers who will be conducting Trainer Cert for the next 4 days that will run from Tuesday to Friday - goodluck sa leave ko po.

Buhay baboy has been my past time - ehem, medyo birthday ng Papa ko and we've been cooking a lot this past few days - wahahaha, puro nguya lang gawa sa bahay - waaaaaaaa. Pero thank you naman Lord kasi may food kami - so di bale nang tumaba - ay sorry naman - mataba na pala. hehehe.

I know I miss him but this is for the good. I have maybe been confident enough but I know everything will fall into place at the proper time. I surrender everything to him because I trust no one else.

God Speed everyone this Christmas holiday! :)

Papa's Golden Birthday

December 8

Grand 80's Prom Night ang theme ng Christmas Party Today - which apparently, I wasn't able to attend because it's Papa's 50th Birthday - sayang, pero ayos lang. There's nothing much to look forward to - Ninetendo Wii's and PSP lang pinamimigay samen :( I guess, we jsut have to look forward to Bamboo who rocked last night's performance. :)

Noon saturday morning - Kae and I decided to go to the Christmas Bazaar in World Trade Center to do some catch up shopping - hindi pa complete Christmas list ko but my wallet has been drained na - nyahahaha. Omg, there were a lot of stores inside World Trade - actually, para syang mixed of branded and not braned ones - aliw din magikot pero super maraming tao because it was weekend. We saw Angelu de Leon, Jodi Sta. Maria, her kid and her husband, we also saw Glady's Reyes and Sheena Ortaleza - ay di ko lam spelling - sorry naman! Kae was supposed to look for a brand but we didn't find it - hay, I'm the one who ended up shopping. Hehe, mura naman mga binili - and I got our PC a new keyboard - wawa na keyboard namen eh, ehehehe. After World Trade, we went to MOA. Had a little dine and spotted a cake for Papa. We ended up choosing a photo cake for him na may picture nila ni mama and a family photo din - hehe, saya! But since we don't have printed pictures, nagnetopia pa kami and nag paprint - effort naman! :) We scouted and bought few more toys for my pamangkins, I bought my Ninang Marks and Spencer na lotion din for Christmas. Haaaaay, marami pa sa list ko ang wala din - pano ba yan, mauubos na ang kaban - ahahahha! i think I know na what I can give to remyxx - ehehehe - yun eh kung magkikita tayo hmmmm, hehehehe - joke lang mga sis!

Grand Christmas Bazaar in World Trade Center runs from December 6 - 16, 2007
Mondays to Thursdays - 12noon to 10PM
Fridays to Sundays - 10AM to 12MN
Note: Php50.00 entrance fee for both kids and adults

On the other side of the world..

It's been 2 days, no text, no call, nothing as in. Nakakapanibago - hindi ganito dati. Sumobra nga ba ako ng confidence sa sarili? Pero come to think of it, mabuti na ang ganito. Let me borrow some thoughts - with whatever you're doing, you should know when and how to stop. You should know kung kelan tama na or kung kelan pwede pa. You should know if you need some growing up to do or if you need some time for yourself. Maraming bagay ang hindi mo nakikita or ayaw mong tignan because either you fear when you look at that direction, or you suddenly become deeply troubled kung maiisip mo ung mga bagay bagay na yun, or dahil akala mo normal yun, or dahil akala mo there's no hope and no tomorrow. We all have choices. It's a matter of what you choose that makes up your life.

Ikaw, ano pinili mo?


will blog more about this some other time... :)

Maroon 5: Won't Go Home Without You


Maroon 5 Music Video



I asked her to stay but she wouldn't listen
She left before I had the chance to say
Oh
The words that would mend the things that were broken
But now it's far too late, she's gone away

Every night you cry yourself to sleep
Thinking: "Why does this happen to me?
Why does every moment have to be so hard?"
Hard to believe that

It's not over tonight
Just give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won't go home without you

The taste of her breath, I'll never get over
The noises that she made kept me awake
Oh
The weight of things that remain unspoken
Built up so much it crushed us everyday

Every night you cry yourself to sleep
Thinking: "Why does this happen to me?
Why does every moment have to be so hard?"
Hard to believe that

[Won't Go Home Without You lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]

It's not over tonight
Just give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won't go home without you

It's not over tonight
Just give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won't go home without you

Of all the things I felt but never really shown
Perhaps the worst is that I ever let you go
I should not ever let you go, oh oh oh

It's not over tonight
Just give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won't go home without you

It's not over tonight
Just give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won't go home without you
And I won't go home without you
And I won't go home without you
And I won't go home without you

2008 Starbucks Planner

Disclaimer muna: I copied lang po the picture from the Flickr site - let me promote his site muna -- i didn't ask permission, pero Thank you naren. hehe

I got my Starbucks planner na for drinking too much coffee. I'm glad to say I'm loving it - the leather is not so hard unlike the one from last year - and that was heavy too. I remember when I was boarding the plane and I had to check my bags in - whew, I had to carry my planner instead of leaving it sa bag ko for weighing because it was really a bit heavy.

Anyway, this new Starbucks 2008 planner comes with an unsharpened pencil that has its two ends flat that you can sharpen - meaning you can sharpen both ends - ay gulo ko! basta un po - walang eraser so pwede mong tasahan magkabila. It has 5 mini cards inside - For mother's day, father's day, valentines day, friendships, and I can't remember the other one. :) The green stripes you're looking at is like a garter that will keep your planner closed. Faux leather tawag nila sa leather na yan, ewan kung ano yun - hehehe.

You may get this Starbucks by visiting any of their stores nationwide. Simply buy any coffee and say you want the promo sticker if you don't have yet and they'll give you one. Every cup you buy - either hot, iced or frapuccino (blended coffee) - you'll get a sticker. You have to complete 24 stickers to avail of the 2008 Planner. 12 stickers are alloted for Special December drinks or what I call holiday drinks. They have featured drinks every time the Christmas Season comes, and again, 12 of your stickers would come from here. This year they are Peppermint Mocha, Toffee Nut Latte and Praline Mocha. The other half - which is 12 more - you can buy any drinks you want... so bili ka ng 12 na featured drinks, and 12 na anything goes na drink or beverage of your choice - and presto - may Planner ka na. But, I've been browsing in ebay and sulit.com - grabe, others are selling it for 1,400 - kung gusto mo naman, bili ka for the price of that - wala nga lang coffee na kasama. Wehehehe.

Pahabol, starting December 3 - December 7, Starbucks has a promo of "double your sticker" if you buy within the allotted time which is 12:30PM - 1:30 PM and 8:30PM to 9:30PM. To those who have stickers - double them now! Lastly, on the purchase of your 24th beverage, a donation will be given on your name to Project SparkHope. I'm planning to complete 2 more promo cards - kakayanin kaya? :)


Happy coffee-ing! :)

gee, Nine West!




Haha, sorry, first time ko weh - I just have to brag my shoes - I just love it. I wore this kanina sa office, and it actually feels so good sa paa - finally - mataas na shoes that I can stand even after hours. I find it nice kasi it has straps to support my tiny feet, it has soft cushion sa talampakan that you can feel the moment you start using it or even as soon as you step on it, I find it sexy because of the heels - nice talaga. Hehe, ako lang siguro nakaka-appreciate. This was taken nung binili ko sya sa Australia. Imagine, for the price of AUD29 which is roughly around 1200 lang may Nine West na ko - e dito this is around 3K - super steal talaga. :)
