gonna miss them

So 5 of my office mates have their last day at ILDA (Mhyre, Abby, Faye, Ingrid, and Jam) today.
Gonna miss them especially Mhyre and of course Jam! No more funny and 'kulitan' moments with Jam. How sad. :-(
[o@tm]

one of those few moments

Sometimes we fall in love in the idea of falling in love. Love can sometimes be an illusion, unreal and deceiving. I'm not cynical about love but sometimes love is merely a state of mind.
(guess this is one of those few moments when I become a bit cynical...just a bit)
[o@tm]

OMG

I was surprised to see this insane woman walking on the street. I wasn't surprised seeing a fool but what surprises me is she's totally naked. People are just staring at her and nobody even dared to give her something to cover her naked body... I wasn't even a help to her.
[o@tm]

the weekend is over

Sometimes I feel like Saturdays and Sundays are not enough. I'm feeling tired...
My sister's coming home tomorrow and I'm not so excited about it.
Erm, been trying to sleep early but my mind is running around. Can't remember the last time I slept early.

American Idol

Been following American Idol lately. I like David Cook and he should win American Idol. Jason Castro is gorgeous (so is David Cook!) with those beautiful eyes and I say some of his performances are adorable (how can I forget Somewhere Over the Rainbow?).
David Archuleta is such a cutie and I think Brooke is sweet and charming. And sorry that Carly was voted off. If it's only based on their performance then I guess Brooke should be voted off instead of Carly (though I like Brooke anyway).

just some stuff...

Well, it rained again this morning (guess it's the second rainfall for this month and hey it's summer and we have rain!).
Still have my usual schedule... monotonous as it may seem...
- Wake up at around 9 or 9:30 and cook lunch/dinner (eat breakfast if I'm not lazy and yeah I just prepare the same meal for lunch and dinner, anyway it's just me so I don't bother as to what to prepare)
- Take a shower and prepare myself for work around 11:20.
- Leave the house as much as possible before 1 PM.
- Work
- Home before 12

This is just my usual and there you go... monotonous sched... well maybe it's not that bad afterall... okay it's not really that bad, is it? Surprising things happen sometimes though.
Erm... my sister Amy is coming back by Monday and well I'm not excited about it. I actually prefer that they are in the province... I don't know but it's just that I can do things and decide on my own if they're not really here.
[o@tm]

just one of those days...

* Thinking...

* Wondering...

* Hoping....

Earth Day

Happy Earth Day!

Have I done something for the earth???

been a while

Yeah, it's been a while since I heard something from Monica. She's actually one of the good people I met in ILDA and she's in Shanghai now.
Chatted with her today and she's getting married in two weeks! Wow! Good for her. I'm really happy for her.
And me? Ummm... lol... I guess I'd better get myself ready for work now before I get late. ;-)
Ciao!

one of my Sundays

Went to mass today but sad to say I was late... tsk tsk tsk... Anyway, I'll try to be early next Sunday.
I'm not a religious churh-goer but it does help if I go to church. It actually makes me guilty when I go somewhere else and not even give an hour for the church.
Bought some stuff after church and I was happy about it. I guess I haven't really shopped for quite sometime.

anyway...
I checked the link that my friend(Hermann) sent, it's Only time by Enya and it's beautiful. Spent some time tonight checking youtube.
I especially adore Connie Talbot on her video. Gosh! She's so cute and adorable.
Call me mushy but I was on the verge of crying when I listened to her song.
Such an angel! :X





I'm surprised whenever I sometimes see the number of visitors on my blog(got like 39 yesterday, I'm only used to 1 or 2). I'm actually embarrassed coz there's nothing about here but just a girl living in a distant place writing nothing but just her day.
I don't mean to waste your time visiting my blog. Okay, this is just me and if you happen to visit my blog, well maybe it's not the worst blog ever...lol.. okay maybe...

Love Actually

Just another movie that I like. Some have surely seen it years ago but just seen it last night, who cares anyway?
I actually liked it.
It actually made me laugh.
It's actually romantic too.

Memorable quotes from IMDb
Prime Minister: Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaking suspision love actually is all around.

Judy: All I want for Christmas is you.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jamie: I'm so late.
Jamie's Girlfriend: It's just 'round the corner, you'll make it.
Jamie: Are you sure you don't mind me going without you?
Jamie's Girlfriend: No, really, I'm just feeling so rotten.
Jamie: I love you.
Jamie's Girlfriend: I know.
Jamie: I love you even when you're sick and look disgusting.
Jamie's Girlfriend: I know. Now go or you will actually miss it.
Jamie: Right. Did I mention that I love you?
Jamie's Girlfriend: Yes you did. Get out, loser!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Juliet: Banoffee pie?
Mark: No, thanks.
Juliet: Thank God. You would've broken my heart if you'd said yes.
Mark: Oh, right, well, lucky you.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Juliet: I thought I might be able to swap it for some pie or-or maybe Munchies?
Mark: Actually, I was being serious. I don't know where it is. I'll have a poke around tonight...
Juliet: Mark, can I say something?
Mark: Yeah.
Juliet: I know you're Peter's best friend and I know you've never particularly warmed to me. Look, don't-don't argue. We've never got friendly. But I just wanted to say, I hope that can change. I'm nice. I really am. Apart from my terrible taste in pie and... It would be great if we could be friends.
Mark: Absolutely. Absolutely.
Juliet: Great.
Mark: Doesn't mean we'll be able to find the video, though. I had a real search when you first called and couldn't any trace of it, so...
Juliet: Well, there's one here that says "Peter and Juliet's Wedding". Do you think we might be on the right track?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aurelia: [in Portguese] I will miss you. And your very slow typing... and your very bad driving.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jamie: Erm. Would you like the last, uh...?
Aurelia: [in Portuguese] Thank you very much but no.
Jamie: No?
Aurelia: If you saw my sister, you'd understand why.
Jamie: That's all right, more for me.
Aurelia: [in Portuguese] Just don't go eating it all yourself, you're getting chubbier every day.
Jamie: I'm very lucky I've got one of those constitutions where I never put on weight.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sophia Barros: [in Portuguese] Oh God - Say 'yes' you skinny moron!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aurelia: Thank you. That will be nice. Yes is being my answer. Easy question.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Harry: Christmas shopping, never an easy or a pleasant task.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mark: Enough. Enough now.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Juliet: I look quite pretty.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Peter: Who is it?
[Mark's sign reads "say it's carol singers"]
Juliet: It's carol singers.
Peter: Well give them a quid and tell them to bugger off.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sam: But you know the thing about romance is people only get together right at the very end.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Daniel: Tell her that you love her.
Sam: No way. Anyway, they fly tonight.
Daniel: Even better! Sam, you've got nothin' to lose, and you'll always regret it if you don't.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Karen: True love lasts a lifetime.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Karl: Life is full of interruptions and complications.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[on sheets of poster board]
Mark: With any luck, by next year - I'll be going out with one of these girls.
[shows pictures of beautiful supermodels]
Mark: But for now, let me say - Without hope or agenda - Just because it's Christmas - And at Christmas you tell the truth - To me, you are perfect - And my wasted heart will love you - Until you look like this
[picture of a mummy]
Mark: Merry Christmas --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Parky: This must be a very exciting moment for you, fighting for the Christmas number one. How's it looking so far?
Billy Mack: Very bad indeed. Blue are outselling me five to one. But I'm hoping for a late surge. And if I reach number one, I promise to sing the song stark naked on TV on Christmas Eve.
Parky: Do you mean that?
Billy Mack: Well of course I mean it, Michael. Do you want a preview? You old flirt.
[stands in front of Parky and flashes at him]
Parky: *That'll* never make number one!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[in Portuguese]
Jamie: Beautiful Aurelia, I've come here with a view of asking you to marriage me. I know I seems an insane person - because I hardly knows you - but sometimes things are so transparency, they don't need evidential proof. And I will inhabit here, or you can inhabit with me in England.
Sophia Barros: Definitely go for England, girl. You'll meet Prince William - then you can marry him instead.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Daniel: So what's the problem, Sammy-o? Is it just Mum or is it something else? Maybe... school - are you being bullied? Or is it something worse? Can you give me any clues at all?
Sam: You really want to know?
Daniel: I really want to know.
Sam: Even though you won't be able to do anything to help?
Daniel: Even if that's the case, yeah.
Sam: Okay. Well, the truth is... actually... I'm in love.
Daniel: Sorry?
Sam: I know I should be thinking about Mum all the time, and I am. But the truth is I'm in love and I was before she died, and there's nothing I can do about it.
Daniel: [laughs] Aren't you a bit young to be in love?
Sam: No.
Daniel: Oh, well, okay, right. Well, I mean, I'm a little relieved.
Sam: Why?
Daniel: Well, because I thought it would be something worse.
Sam: [incredulous] Worse than the total agony of being in love?
Daniel: Oh. No, you're right. Yeah, total agony.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Billy Mack: Christmas is a time for people with someone they love in their lives.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Harry: Tell me, exactly, how long it is that you've been working here?
Sarah: Two years, seven months, three days and, I suppose, what, two hours?
Harry: And how long have you been in love with Karl, our enigmatic chief designer?
Sarah: Ahm, two years, seven months, three days and, I suppose, an hour and thirty minutes.
Harry: I thought as much.
Sarah: Do you think everybody knows?
Harry: Yes.
Sarah: Do you think Karl knows?
Harry: Yes.
Sarah: Oh, that is- that is bad news.
Harry: Well I just thought maybe the time had come to do something about it.
Sarah: Like what?
Harry: Invite him out for a drink and then after about twenty minutes casually drop into the conversation the fact that you'd like to marry him and have lots of sex and babies.
Sarah: You know that?
Harry: Yes. And so does Karl. Think about it. For all our sakes. It's Christmas.
Sarah: Certainly. Excellent. Will do. Thanks, boss.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[about Peter]
Sarah: Do you love him?
Mark: Uh, b- What?
Sarah: No I-I just thought I'd ask the blunt question.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Billy Mack: When I was young and successful, I was greedy and foolish, and now I'm left with no one. Wrinkled and alone.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Karen: So what's this big news, then?
Daisy: [excited] We've been given our parts in the nativity play. And I'm the lobster.
Karen: The lobster?
Daisy: Yeah!
Karen: In the nativity play?
Daisy: [beaming] Yeah, *first* lobster.
Karen: There was more than one lobster present at the birth of Jesus?
Daisy: Duh.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Billy Mack: Hiya kids. Here is an important message from your Uncle Bill. Don't buy drugs. Become a pop star, and they give you them for free.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Press Conference Reporter: Mr. President, has it been a good visit?
The President: Very satisfactory indeed. We got what we came for and our special relationship is still very special.
Press Conference Reporter: Prime Minister?
Prime Minister: I love that word "relationship". Covers all manner of sins, doesn't it? I fear that this has become a bad relationship. A relationship based on the President taking exactly what he wants and casually ignoring all those things that really matter to, erm... Britain. We may be a small country but we're a great one, too. The country of Shakespeare, Churchill, the Beatles, Sean Connery, Harry Potter. David Beckham's right foot. David Beckham's left foot, come to that. And a friend who bullies us is no longer a friend. And since bullies only respond to strength, from now onward, I will be prepared to be much stronger. And the President should be prepared for that.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Natalie, a secretary, is greeting the Prime Minister]
Natalie: Hello, David. I mean "sir". Shit, I can't believe I've just said that. And now I've gone and said "shit" - twice. I'm so sorry, sir.
Prime Minister: It's fine, it's fine. You could've said "fuck", and then we'd have been in real trouble.
Natalie: Thank you, sir. I did have an awful premonition that I was gonna fuck up on the first day. Oh, piss-it!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[neither understands the other's language]
Jamie: [in English] It's my favorite time of day, driving you.
Aurelia: [in Portuguese] It's the saddest part of my day, leaving you.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Daniel: You've seen the films, kiddo. It ain't over 'til it's over.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Daniel: So, let's go. We can definitely crack this. Remember, I was a kid once, too. So come on, it's someone at school, right?
Sam: Yeah.
Daniel: Aha, good, good. And what does she - he - feel about ya?
Sam: *She* doesn't even know my name. And even if she did, she'd despise me. She's the coolest girl in school and everyone worships her because she's heaven.
Daniel: Good. Good.
[sits on the couch next to Sam]
Daniel: Well...
[grins]
Daniel: Basically, you're fucked, aren't you?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Colin: American girls would seriously dig me with my cute British accent.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[talking about her ex-boyfriend]
Natalie: He says no one's gonna fancy a girl with thighs the size of big tree trunks. Not a nice guy, actually, in the end.
Prime Minister: Ah. You know, um, being Prime Minister, I could just have him murdered.
Natalie: Thank you, sir. I'll think about it.
Prime Minister: Do. The SAS are absolutely charming. Ruthless trained killers are just a phone call away.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Prime Minister: [on the phone to his sister] I'm very busy and important. How can I help you?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Billy Mack: I realized that Christmas is-is the time to be with the people you love.
Joe: Right.
Billy Mack: And I realized that as dire chance and-and-and fateful cockup would have it, here I am, mid 50s, and without knowing it I've gone and spent most of my adult life with a- with a chubby employee. And-and much as it grieves me to say it, it-it might be that the people I love is, in fact... you.
[pause]
Joe: Well, this is a surprise.
Billy Mack: Yeah.
Joe: Ten minutes at Elton John's, you're as gay as a maypole.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Karen: Get a grip, people hate sissies. No-one's ever gonna shag you if you cry all the time.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[after walking into 10 Downing Street for the first time and falling in love with a member of the domestic staff]
Prime Minister: Oh, no. That is so inconvenient.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[having just been exposed kissing Natalie on a school stage during a student concert in front of hundreds of children and parents]
Prime Minister: Right. So, not quite as secret as we'd hoped.
Natalie: What do we do now?
Prime Minister: Smile. Little bow. And a wave.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Prime Minister: I'd like to go to Wandsworth, the dodgy end.
PM's chauffeur, Terry: Very good, sir.
[they drive to Wandsworth]
PM's chauffeur, Terry: Harris Street. What number, sir?
Prime Minister: Oh, God, it's the longest street in the world and I have absolutely no idea.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[the Prime Minister is knocking on doors to find Natalie]
Harris Street old lady: Aren't you the Prime Minister?
Prime Minister: Yes, in fact, I am. Merry Christmas.
Harris Street old lady: Oh.
Prime Minister: Part of the service, now. Trying to get round to everyone by New Year's Eve.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[trying to make conversation with Aurelia, who doesn't understand a word]
Jamie: No, right. Silence is golden. As the Tremeloes said. Clever guys. Although I think the original version was by, uh, Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. Great, great, great band.
[hums "Silence is Golden"]
Jamie: Oh, shut up.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
John: So, what do you reckon to our new Prime Minister, then?
Judy: Oh, I like him. I can't understand why he's not married, though.
John: Well, you know the type. He's, uh, married to his job. Either that or gay as a picnic basket.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Rufus places the necklace box in a cellophane bag, opening one drawer and another, scooping amounts of small roses and lavender in the bag. He then pulls out a four inch cinnamon stick]
Harry: What's that?
Rufus: It's a cinnamon stick, sir.
Harry: Acutally, I really, uh, can't wait.
Rufus: Oh, you won't regret it, sir.
Harry: Wanna bet?
[he ties it around the bag with a piece of string]
Rufus: 'Tis but the work of a moment. There we go. Almost finished.
Harry: [sarcastically] Almost finished? What else can there be? Are you gonna dip it in yoghurt? Cover it with Chocolate Buttons?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Karen: Tell me, if you were in my position, what would you do?
Harry: What position is that?
Karen: Imagine your husband bought a gold necklace and come Christmas gave it to somebody else...
Harry: Oh, Karen...
Karen: Would you wait around to find out...
Parent: Good night.
Karen: Night, night. Happy Christmas.
[back to Harry]
Karen: Would you wait around to find out if it's just a necklace, or if it's sex and a necklace, or if worst of all it's a necklace and love? Would you stay, knowing life would always be a little bit worse? Or would you cut and run?
Harry: Oh, God. I am so in the wrong. The classic fool.
Karen: [voice breaking] Yes, but you've also made a fool out of me, and you've made the life I lead foolish too.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Colin: [after insulting the food] And what do you do Nancy?
Nancy the caterer: I'm a cook.
Colin: Ever do weddings?
Nancy the caterer: Yes I do.
Colin: They should have asked you to do this one.
Nancy the caterer: They did.
Colin: God I wish you hadn't turned it down.
Nancy the caterer: I didn't.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[in Portuguese]
Jamie: Good evening. Mr. Barros?
Mr. Barros: Yes?
Jamie: I am here to ask your daughter for her hands in marriage.
Mr. Barros: You want to marry my daughter?
Jamie: Yes.
Mr. Barros: [to someone in the back of the house] Come here, there is a man at the door. He wants to marry you.
[a large and confused women emerges]
Sophia Barros: But I've never seen him before.
Mr. Barros: Who cares?
Sophia Barros: You're going to sell me to a complete stranger?
Mr. Barros: Sell? Who said 'sell'? I'll pay him.
Jamie: Pardon me. I'm meaning your other daughter - Aurelia.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Natalie runs up to the Prime Minister at Heathrow airport and leaps into his arms]
Prime Minister: God, you weigh a lot!
Natalie: Oh, shut your face!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Colin: Exciting news!
Tony: What?
Colin: I've bought a ticket to the States. I'm off in three weeks.
Tony: No!
Colin: Yes! To a fantastic place called Wisconsin.
Tony: No!
Colin: Yes! Wisconsin babes, here comes Sir Colin! Whoo hoo!
Tony: No, Col! There are a few babes in America, I grant you, but they're already going out with rich, attractive guys.
Colin: Nah, Tone, you're just jealous. You know perfectly well that any bar anywhere in America contains ten girls more beautiful and more likely to have sex with me than the whole of the United Kingdom.
Tony: That is total bollocks. You've actually gone mad, now.
Colin: No, I'm wise. Stateside I am Prince William without the weird family.
Tony: No, Colin, no!
Colin: Yes!
Tony: Nyet!
Colin: Da!
Tony: Nein!
Colin: Ja, darling!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Karen: The trouble with being the Prime Minister's sister is it does put your life into rather harsh perspective. What did my brother do today? He stood up and fought for his country. And what did I do? I made a papier maché lobster head.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Aurelia meets Juliet, Mark, and Peter in the airport]
Aurelia: Jamie's friends are so good looking! He never tells me this. I think, maybe now I have made the wrong choice? Picked wrong Englishman?
Jamie: She can't speak English properly, she-she doesn't know what she's saying.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stacey, American Dreamgirl: [points to beer bottle] What do you call that?
Colin: Uh, Bottle.
Stacey, American Dreamgirl, Jeannie, American Angel, Carol-Anne, American Goddess: [giggling, mimicking accent] BOHT-el!
Jeannie, American Angel: [points to straw] What about this?
Colin: Uh, straw.
Stacey, American Dreamgirl, Jeannie, American Angel, Carol-Anne, American Goddess: [mimicking accent] Strohw!
Carol-Anne, American Goddess: [points to table] What about this?
Colin: Uh, table.
Stacey, American Dreamgirl, Jeannie, American Angel, Carol-Anne, American Goddess: [starting to repeat] Tab - Oh, the same. It's the same.
[Colin nods apologetically]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jamie: You learned English?
Aurelia: Just in cases.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Daniel: [knocks on Sam's door] Sam, time for dinner.
Sam: I'm not hungry.
Daniel: Sam... I've done chicken kebabs!
Sam: Look at the sign on the door.
[he starts practising his drums; Daniel leans back and looks at the sign, which says, "I SAID - I'M NOT HUNGRY"]
Daniel: Right.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Daniel: You know, Sammy, I'm sure she's unique and extraordinary, but... the general wisdom is that, in the end, there isn't just one person for each of us.
Sam: There was for Kate and Leo. There was for you. There is for me.
[holds up one finger]
Sam: She's "the one".
Daniel: Fair enough.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Prime Minister: Hello, does Natalie live here?
Harris Street little girl: No, she doesn't.
Prime Minister: Oh, dear. Okay.
Harris Street little girl: Are you singing carols?
Prime Minister: Uh, no. No I'm not.
Her friend: Please, sir, please?
Her friend: Please!
Prime Minister: Well, I suppose I could.
Her friend: Please?
Prime Minister: Alright.
Harris Street little girl, Her friend, Her friend: Yay!
Prime Minister: [singing] Good King Wenceslas looked out, on the Feast of Stephen /
[his driver joins in]
Prime Minister: When the snow lay round about, deep and crisp and even / Brightly shone the moon that night...

[Billy's record makes #1]
Radio 1 chart show DJ: Hi, Billy!
Billy Mack: Hello.
Radio 1 chart show DJ: We're live across the nation, and you're number one!
[Billy laughs]
Radio 1 chart show DJ: How will you be celebrating?
Billy Mack: I don't know. Er, either I could behave like a real rock-and-roll loser, and get drunk with my fat manager, or when I hang up I'll be flooded by invitations to a large number of glamorous parties.
[cheers]
Radio 1 chart show DJ: Let's hope it's the latter. And here it is, Number One from Billy Mack, it's "Christmas Is All Around."
Billy Mack: Oh, Jesus, not that crap again!
[laughter]

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mia: I don't want something I need. I want something I want - something pretty.

[In the airport, Daniel, Carol, Sam, and Carol's son are waiting. Joanna appears at the gate]
Sam: There she is!
[he runs to her]
Joanna Anderson: Hi!
[Sam wants to kiss her, but holds back]
Sam: Hello.
Daniel: [watching] Agh! He should have kissed her...
Carol: No, that's cool.

moments

Got a text message from AJ early this morning and how I'm reminded of the good old days when Arlene, Anabelle, Sara and AJ were my office mates, the time spent with them, the laughters, the silliness and even the problems that we shared.
Life at the office was more colorful, funnier and sillier with them around.
Now those moments are just distant memories.
- Time flies by
- Life goes on
- People come and go
- Friends will always find ways to keep in touch
- Memories will be cherished forever
- And the road will one day bring us back together

Caught these guys chatting while on break...

leaves on the ground

I like looking at the ground-covered leaves that's why I didn't bother to sweep it away.

phone call from my mother

Got several missed calls from my mother before I was able to finally answer my phone. We phone each other constantly these days. I especially love it when she's the one who calls me up because that means she wants to hear my voice...lol...
I miss my mother and I miss home.
[o@tm]

and the taste?

Got the recipe from del monte. Maybe it doesn't really look bad and the taste wasn't...good.
Maybe I should try other recipes sometimes.


By the way, it rained this morning. I was surprised about it because it's summer and we have rain!

Pains and Cramps

Woke up so early today (around 6 AM) and how I loved the quietness of the morning and so I decided to sleep for some more hours since it's Sunday morning only to wake up dizzy and I thought I'm going to throw up... oops... it's not a sign of pregnancy...heck no! lol!
I was kinda freaking coz I felt like dehydrating and I felt so weak so I took an Imodium only to realized later on that it's dysmenorrhea. Goodness, it was so painful that I just stayed in bed.
But I'm still thankful that it didn't last that long... just an hour or two I guess and not to mention that my head is just so heavy that I don't know what's wrong.
Well, glad I somehow feel better now.

[o@tm]

just nothing...

Feeling not so good today. Think I'm going to get sick and maybe it's because I woke up almost 11 AM... ummm... what's that to do with getting sick? Ah, my head just feels so heavy...
Went to Landmark this afternoon and bought some stuff.
Today wasn't actually a very good day but well maybe it wasn't that bad either.

We only have 4 hours of work today... well, not actually work but just a training. We have two excess days for the month of April but then they decided to just have a training today.
I guess it's a good thing to have our off early.

and so it goes...

Isn’t it funny? Susan and I were supposed to go to Laguna today (we have this excess day at the office so we don’t have work today) but since we met late (we planned on meeting at 7:30 AM but oh well, sleepiness won in the battle and we ended up meeting at 11 A.M.) we just went to MOA instead (we’re actually kinda tired going to malls but we don’t have any better choices).
I can’t believe we spent the whole afternoon and even the evening there. At one point, we decided to go to Cavite but I guess we’re both not feeling sure about it so we decided to stay.
Had my lunch at Mang Inasal (Susan ate in Goldilocks earlier) and then we just roamed around. We then bought some bread in Bread Talk – well they have yummy bread there. We spent the rest of the afternoon in the bay walk and took some pictures then had our dinner.
Well I guess after all it wasn’t really a bad day (though we were so disappointed at the start that we ended in MOA).
