being one of the boys

Thursday, August 31, 2006

a lot of things had happen in my work. and i dont want to think about it right now.

anyways, one of my childhood guyfriend pop me a YM message early evening about his girl problems. well, my guyfriends usually call me if they have issues about girls. guess, they're comfortable sharing it with me. i dunno but he's one of the best-est guy friend i have and i really think he's such a good boy in a relationship... usually way too good in my opinion. most of the times, the girls take advantage of him, and i can't really help him much once he fall for it coz he falls really deep.

i guess i would try my best to help him on this one.... trying to give advices so he wouldnt look like a stalker or something. so we had dinner together with another guyfriend but things ended up with nothing but jokes... and a number of pickup lines. i listed one... its funnier if its in tagalog so i have to write it on my native tongue. i dont know if these have copyrights or whatever...

Guy: Anong ginagawa mo?
Girl: Wala lang
Guy: Alam mo ba na ang "Wala Lang" is the subconscious way of saying "I love you"? Girl: Ows
Guy: At alam mo ba kung bakit ko sinasabi 'to? Wala lang.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: i didnt invent this pickup line, ok! i'm not THIS mushy. thing is, guys usually turn mushy/chessy whenever its about girls. they just dont want to admit it. hahaha!

not!

Saturday, August 26, 2006

i woke up past lunchtime today, 15mins or so after twelve. truth is, i woke up a number of times...attempted to get up my bed thrice (or maybe more, but who's counting). i received a message from the bf that we'll meet 3pm. run a warm shower (i never shower with cold water... ever! even during summer. that is, if i have a choice.) and dressed up ready leave at half past one. took a ride to bf's house, and arrived 2:45pm. not bad! i'm not late. when i got there, bf was still asleep and i didnt want to wake him up. so i waited. got hungry, ordered pizza, watched tv and by 5:30pm my prince charming woke up and prepared for work.

we have the house around 7pm after we finished watching 50 first dates on cable(i love the part where lucy beats ula... never fails to make me laugh). i went to the mall, looked around and controlled myself not to spend anything on vanity items. i ended buying one float for the road.

what a productive saturday...

so much for fridays

i'm pretty disappointed right now. why is he like that?! or maybe im just a workaholic. well maybe i am. so what?!! what i'm saying is that he should show more enthusiasm. two weeks should have been enough... why a month! i dont know how he feels about it but im really disappointed. although id like to give him the benefit of the doubt. but c'mmon... he's not new at kind of stuff, right? if he is, then he shouldn't act like a know-it-all. i need someone i can trust... someone who'll do things even if nobody's checking.

nevermind.... and no...this is not work-related anyway.

TGI Friday!!!

this week's is too stressful for me. maybe coz of a life-changing, career-shaking event that's about to unfold. honestly, i'm not sure i'm prepared with what's in store... but i havta do it. believe in myself... believe ... believe... believe... hey does anyone know a hynoptist out there?

i'm so scared. but they have given me this one chance... i'm not a gambler. actually i'm too afraid to lose that i dont bet on anything that relies on chances. i'm the type of person who'd choose death than failure. ok... what i said is in extremes, but you know where i'm going right?

so boyfriend is ever patient on me these days. i dunno. he "let" me get away winning on our shoot-out matchups (as if he can beat me), waits an hour (just sitting alone) while i have my massage. and now, he even agreed that i should have a spa treat again today. he must be getting a virus or something. but nevermind... i'll make most of it. hahaha.

so i went to spa utopia right after work. red was supposed to join me but changed her mind in the last minute. i was too tired to even re-think of not availing their august promo (turkish steam bath, swedish massage, and facial for just mere 600php). its insane to let it pass so i decided i should do it coz its the last friday of the month. (...and ladies, fridays are the always best day to pamper thyself after a week's stress at the office, right?).

their facilities were not as grand as the spa chains but its clean and good enough. their sauna room is nice... it isn't too steamy. i remembered going to body tune steam room before and i cant see a thing. i mean, you wont even see the person sitting right next to you. they can't control it so i cant really stay for long. spa utopia's sauna is much better... you have the room by yourself. the shower room wasn't that great and they're missing hair conditioner. i mean, i cant have a shower and not have conditioner!

the massage was superb. though i do wish the staff would be more attentive on keeping the silence at all times. you know, people are more aware (and hears even the tiniest sounds) when they're close to being naked. they had a relaxing background music but it wasnt enough to mask the voices of staff outside. maybe that's the reason why i wasnt able to sleep. the first and last time i slept during a massage was back when i was in shangri-la putrajaya. everything was perfect back there and before i knew it i was dozing off and my masseuse woke me up and ask me to flip over.

well spa utopia's ambiance isn't as close as putrajaya's but considering the price, i'd have to say it was worth it. maricel, my masseuse, was thorough and very attentive to what i have to say. her fingers are small and yet she has the strength to soothe my aching muscles. she did everything she could and i was really pampered. funny thing is, the first part she massaged was my butt... hahaha. maybe she knew i spent a lot of my time sitting and my butt is all beat up or something. suprisingly, it felt good. ok... maybe i did overuse my butt.

after the massage, i had a very quick facial... nothing extravagant. it just that someone washed my face and pricked all the whiteheads,blackheads and removed or the dirt. yes, it hurts but i didn't know that it could hurt much worse that my last glyco-peel session. they put some epidermabrasion... i dont know if its a cream or something but was nothing but agony. i was warned that it would sting but it didn't matter to me. i have a high threshold with regards pain (needle-less ofcourse)... but it was nothing near to my expectations. let's just say... i had a litany of the seven deadly cusses (in cycles). i dunno know the effect on my skin but it better be good or there'll be hell to pay.

i would definitely go back and have another pampering treat next month. as for the facial session... maybe i'll let "the boyfriend" share my pain next time. after all, i won a bet (couldnt resist a sure-win) last time we had dinner @ claudine's, right hun?

    out and about: the un-blogged eat-outs

    Thursday, August 24, 2006

    i have gone to a lot of eating places this past few days. what can i say? with abi back, i've been going out for dinners every night. boyfriend is even becoming jealous coz i've been spending a lot of time with her.

    we've tried the new pasta stall at 2nd floor rcbc plaza. geez, i forgot the name but its the stall before tapa king. everytime i go there, the place is near-empty. usually, our rule is if the resto is vacated, the food might not be as good as it should be... so we then to avoid the place. but i didnt know what came into mind that day. we went in and tried the chicken & pasta meal. it wasnt bad at all. well abi did ask them to re-cook/re-fry her chicken. i had bolognese and it was good. nothing superb but ok. they also have dalandan juice which they claimed that its the same as italliani's. i beg to differ... there's some weird after-taste. i know italliani's dalandan drink and i totally love it. their version of it is so-so. i'm not sure though... maybe its just the concentration or maybe the water. the serving size is just right for lunch... or maybe dinner if you're not that hungry. i might go back and try some of their other pastas. (3 out of 5 rating)

    we also had dinner at wong don (or was that don wong or woon dong... geez, i'm really not good at names, huh!) korean resto near makati ave/jupiter. the serving size was huuuuge. the appetizer... i mean appetizersssss were unbelievable. its like a meal in itself. we ordered bulgogi (bbq pork strips) and requested a soup thats not spicy. the waitress suggested a beef stew with soya bean paste or something to that effect. but when they served the stew, i knew something was wrong instantly. we saw specs of red which are undeniably red chili. it was hot alright. and the pork strip was spicy as well. blend together with some kimchi and i dont know how we manage not to strip them with their water supply. i also tried their watermelon shake. i'm not sure if it was really nice and sweet coz all that chilis dulled my tastebuds. i think the watermelon shake from hotel intercon is much better though. the stew is delicious despite of being too spicy. i'm sure my boyfriend will enjoy it a lot... considering he love bone marrows. i dont...bleah! but the meal was totally worth your money. the place is nice and the people are courteous... just make sure to confirm your tolerance level for chili though. (3.5 out of 5 rating)

    finally, yesterday we dined at zen japanese (with korean menu) resto @ greenbelt 3. abi ordered the bento box, a rice meal with two servings of dishes, miso soup, some veggie salad, crabmeat in tofu and a bit of dessert (did i forget anything???)... i ordered chicken teriyaki donburi (rice topping). it was the first time i went there and was suprised that my order also have soup and okra and some fruit w/ jelly dessert. and the truth is, i ordered donburi coz im not really that hungry. when abi's order came, it was twice my food serving size. the teriyaki was great. better than any other teriyaki meal i can remember (for now). the soup was good too. abi also let me tried her beef-rolled-with-some-mushroom-and-veggie which was very tasty. i would want to try that next time... and i have to drag bf here as the food is really worth it. the place is homey and some animes are being shown. everyone was every attentive and courteous. but you have to make sure that you're really, really hungry if you'll eat there... or those bento box can be shared by two persons. forget about me and abi... we just had shopping time before dinner so we were both wasted... hence the pig-out.

    pains of being tall & slim

    crazy. everytime i try to find good pants for me, i cant just find a pair that fits me. i'm too thin and tall... pants usually end up too short for me or too huge on my waistline. i hate it. how come they have clothing line for big sizes but they dont have enough line for tall and slim people like me.

    rarely do i find rtw pants that is my size. today is my lucky day. i bought a pair at ensembles. guess my what my size is... XS (reads: extra small)... the smallest size available ever on their store. imagine, i stand 5'7" and im going to wear XS pants! well at least the cut saves me from any worries. the waistline fits just fine but the length... err, i can get away it with as long as i got the right shoes.

    maybe i should have tailor-made pants instead. i'm trying to replenish my work clothes. here's some on my shopping list...


    i'll be browsing the net first before going to the mall... this is how women should do it to lessen the walktime, dont you think?

    the rematch

    Monday, August 21, 2006

    it was sunday afternoon when i got the threat... a call for a rematch against my previous win on the shoot-out game. i somehow knew that it was coming. and this time, we are to battle on the "old court" (the last time we used the new shoot-out machines). to tell you the truth, i couldnt care less if i lose but of course, i wanted to win.

    so there i was, buying 6 tokens for our best of 3 rematch game. i heard him say... "let's make it quick... i'm going to win two straight so you can get your massage early." he's right, the mall is about to close and i was eager to have at least a back massage before i sleep that night.

    with a smug smile on his face, he said, "don't worry, you'll be in the spa in no time. it'll be a quickie." hah! the guy's really serious... don't you think. i said, whatever... as long as i can get a massage, it's ok.

    so game one started. i played slow, the first few balls didnt go it at all. geez... i am gonna lose. haf-time score was 64-61... in his favor. you should have seen the smile on his face. i knew he was happy about it. and i promised that if he did win the game, i would tell in on my blog. he wanted me to lose bigtime, i see.

    second half, i was at ease. i played comfortably, not even looking at his score or even my score. fifteen seconds before i finish my round, i felt him nudging me from the side. "err... hon, i thought your back hurts," he whispered.

    well, it did. i looked at his score... 148, not bad at all. my score? 164... omg! i AM good. hahaha. so i won game one afterall.

    "sorry but i think your spa session will have to wait till we finish game three." well, not if i can help it! so i put my everything on it... kept on checking his score against mine to make sure that i'm not lagging behind. i had a four-point lead at half-time.

    spa... massage... win game two and you'll get your anti-stress treat. so i was all out. ofcourse, by now you have the idea who won right? let's just say, we're through ten seconds before the round finishes. we walked out with a consolation DQ walnut fudge blizzard for the loser and i got my massage the way i want it. hahaha.

    quotes from the players:
    "like carter said, there are good days and bad days of shooting... this is just
    one of those unlucky days."
    - contender

    "whatever!" - winner

    puppy love

    Saturday, August 19, 2006

    i was planning to go to the spa today but my family woke me up and asked... err demanded to get my lazy butt off my bed and get "sahara"... better known as chewy.

    chewy is a four-month cute shih-tzu pup that my boyfriend's sister owned. i borrowed her once and brought her home coz i really find her sweet and cuddly. but i didnt knew that my family will accept her more than they accept my boyfriend. hahaha. the first time my mom set eyes on chewy, she became part of this family. every weekend they ask me if i could have chewy here for a day or two. guess they really like that pooch. i adore her as much as i adore my first pup paniel, back when i was in college. the only problem i have with chewy is the fact that she basically chew everything in her path, be it socks, shoes and yes... even cables. thus, the alias "chew-y". funny thing, my family still finds her funny. i wonder how my bro will react once chewy finishes my bro half-eaten LAN cables. hahaha.

    but for now, since everyone will have their attention to the pup, i can enjoy myself. tomorrow, maybe i can have my massage. but for now, sleeptime!!! i looveeeee long weekends!!!!

    the blank statement

    yes, i have changed the blog template this week. i visited a couple of blog template sites, reached blogskins and chose drogue-designs' the other side of eden since its the closest watermelon-looking site i could find... well at least as of the moment. though i feel that this is a bit too dark for me (i wanted to change the black color to something reddish and add some seeds), i didnt have the time to do all of that. i'll find time to do it... i hope.

    a lot of things happened this week that for me it seems like a month has passed already. i dont why i felt so drained... but when i realized that it was a friday, i suddenly felt the urge to have a nice relaxing massage and escape from the earth's calling. days have been very demanding and i feel so worthless inside. no, i'm not sad... or down or whatever. actually, i should be happy but the feeling eludes me. give me a few more days before i can share everything with you. but as of the moment, i feel so incapable and helpless.

    or maybe i'm not used to being blessed or lucky (depends on how you see it). thing is, for me, its scary when good things happen to you one after the other. i feel there's something dark in the end. somewhat like pandora's box but in reverse... all the good things and then a really bad thing will come of it.

    so now, i'm being a pessimist. argh!

    crossroads

    Wednesday, August 16, 2006


    i just got the pictures from lilia's visit here and let me tell you, i look horrible on all of them except for this one. in every shot, i looked either tired or wasted... and to think all of them were taken before we had our rounds of alcohol. guess i just have to be thankful that i have this one lucky shot where i look human-enough. yup, i have to ask my friends' permissions before i can post it here. you know how the female species are when it comes to this kind of decision-making. but when you capture a kodak moment, you just have to flaunt it. hahaha.

    speaking of flaunting, last weekend i wore my "free" nets jersey (courtesy of lenny) and tried it out for a test round on the shoot-out arcade. my boyfriend introduced me to the shootout machine six years ago. back then i can rarely get 50 pts and earn free game. he became my coach ... telling me how to shoot properly (using your fingers and wrist) and not get tired easily (less stress on the arm). and now im beating him black and blue. let me tell you, when your girl scores 3x higher than you, you can't say that you ALLOWED her to win... especially if you hear the crowd saying "hey the girl beat that guy BIGTIME!" hahaha. another thing...when you score 120+ and your opponent got 24, you definitely can't help but rub it in, right? and i'm not saying this happened to me, else someone would really fire up. hahahaha!

    you know what? everytime i meet a friend i havent seen for a long time, they keep on saying i lost weight. i cant believe im still capable of losing weight with my appetite for junk foods. maybe its because of my late nights. my life is getting complicated each passing day. im getting freaked out coz everything is like moving in the fast lane and i feel that i might not be able to keep up with this pace soon. i cant say the details as of the moment. but lets see where fate takes me this time around. im not yet in my 30s and yet i feel like im getting close to looking that age. scary, but i shouldn't be afraid of taking risks, right?

    all that spice

    Saturday, August 12, 2006

    i went out to mcdonalds with my colleague red this afternoon... had chicken meal for lunch and yes, i drank another coke float. what can i say? i'm a hopeless addict. despite red's advice that i should refrain from acidic drinks, i couldnt help myself. dont worry, i've been punished for being such a hard-headed... in less than two hours after my ten-minute eartly pleasure. i guess thats enough chastening for one day, so please reserve your rebuke until my next attempt to get near mcdonalds.

    moving on... i meet my friend lilia and her hubby arnout who were on vacation here in makati yesterday. they married like a year ago and relocated in netherlands. abi was there too... after all she's lilia's best friend and i only met abi through lilia. we had a couple of dinners together with her other girlfriends and it was a blast. imagine a crowd of girlfriends talking about anything and everything over dinner... and when i said everything it, i mean it. from singles' concerns to newlyweds' issues. i barely knew most of them but overall... it was fun AND educational. and as you all know, i can't go into details on what we've talked about. ladies talks are always for ladies' ears (and eyes) only. the best part is, i met new girlfriends...i hope we can go out in an ladies-only night-out someday, if schedules permit.

    i also had dinner with abi @ salt and pepper, a resto-turned-bar. i was planning order for just dessert but opted for their bread selections instead. they have like 30% off on breads every friday night. i forgot that they have live bands at night... sure if that happens every night but i know every friday, they invite bands to play starting 8pm (or was it 7pm???). it was a nice experience. the first band was totally hot (though i wasnt able to catch what they call themselves)... i like all their gig and abi knows all of the songs they played. the second group was so-so. it was an all-femme lead singers... i'm not much of a slow music fanatic when it comes to band performances. so abi and i ended up like american idol judges criticizing each girl. we both agree that the one in violet is the best of out of the three and the black one was the most vocally-challeged.

    and no... i didn't drink alcohol this time. i'm still feeling after-effects of my float attempt. you should see the look that the guy gave me when i ordered for iced tea.... i had to say... "i'm still underage" to ensure him that i did order for an iced tea. (abi was even suggesting that i should go easy and have bottled water instead) . the last time i went out and listened to a live band over beer was back in 199x... right after i broke up with ex-boyfriend. my kadas (group of friends) dragged me out of my sulky state, went to bedrock somewhere in malate, drank all the sexually-titled drinks on their cocktail menu and danced like crazy. come to think of it, that was the first time i went in a bar. hahaha. how come i have to be depressed before i can experience those totally flipped out night-outs? i wonder if i could have nights like this often. now if i could only drag my better-half on the dance floor... i cant even drag him for a facial. it'll be thrice as hard to ask him to dance with me. hmmm, do i see another mission coming into mind? hahahaha. you better prepare yourself.

    big thanks to friends

    Tuesday, August 08, 2006

    im soooooo happy today. i cant believe how blessed i am to have friends around.

    today i met abi over lunch. she just got back last weekend from her all-over-US-and-canada trip. i really missed our usual chit-chats. maybe that's one reason why i dont mind working at home these days. i really prefer working in the office and when i end up working late (which happens most of the times) abi and i will enjoy dinner together. needless to say, my boyfriend is relieved now that she's back. at least i can ask abi to go shopping with me instead of dragging him to the ladies or cosmetics section, asking him what color of eyeshadow best suits me like the last time we went to the mall. hahaha.

    she wasnt able to update me with everything that happened during her trip, but we have the rest of the week to catch up with each other... maybe over lunch or dinner.

    also i was eagerly waiting for the stuff my friend lenny sent me. i was suprised that he sent me two jerseys!!! i was only expecting to get the Kidd's NJ Nets home jersey but he also gave me road replica as well. and abi was able to pick the right size for me. everything was perfect. i couldnt wait to wear it... actually i really couldnt wait that i am wearing the road jersey as i type. hahaha.
    next weekend, i'll probably wear the home jersey. the white one is the best! i can't thank him enuf. you know, i couldnt find a small-sized nba jersey here.... that's why i cant wipe this huge smile off my face now that i have two... well three actually because i have this medium sized road jersey of J.Kidd but i couldnt wear it (a little bit large for ladies wear). to think that he was teasing me that he bought me jason collin's jersey instead because its much cheaper. actually, i dont care... as long as its not a lakers' jersey, i'm sure im going to love it. anyway, thanks again, lenny!

    also, i got chocolates from my friend scott as well. abi said that it melted coz they had like a heat wave back in the states but i dont care. i mean, chocolates are chocolates.... melted or not, i just couldn't say no to them. and besides, when its given by good friends, it always tastes better. huge thanks, scott! i know you'll be reading this... i put it in the ref and will eat it after i blog, just before i sleep. hahaha.

    another suprise from a friend i havent heard from in ages. carol, who's my college roommate, called me up. the last time i heard from her was like more than a year ago. she is one of my closest girlfriends... considering we shared rooms for like two years. guess what... she just gave birth to a baby girl. and my friend is like four (or maybe five) years younger than me! now she's married. i cant believe it!!! i tell you... by the time i get married, all my girlfriends are married and i have to asked their daughters to be my bridal entourage. arghhh!!!! anyway, she's staying with her mom in the province but will be back here to continue her degree next semester. maybe i'll meet her then.

    the last one came as a shock. i logged on to my old YM account and saw my girl-bestfriend, liz. i sent her a message and she said that i was mistaken... that she doesnt know who i am. i checked her YM profile and it says that the last profile update was june 2001. thing is, i was like checking and logging on her account around year 2003 onwards. i'm sure she's my girlfriend. maybe she doesnt want to talk with me because of what happened. considering that she left, and the police are after her and nobody knew where she is (except her family, i guess). whats interesting is the fact that she told me that she has a baby and that she's talking to her husband. ***geez! she's married as well! arghhh!!!!*** its so sad that she's still in denial. i guess she's scared. but i only want to catch up with what happened to her... maybe her married life, her baby. i couldnt blame her for what she did... i mean, what's the use? that's all in the past. i still miss her but i couldnt do anything if she doesnt want to be friends with me again. anyway, as long as she's fine, i guess that's enuf for now.
    maybe i'll try to talk with her again next time. let's see how it'll go.

    guilty as charged

    Monday, August 07, 2006

    last friday, my boyfriend came over with a cheeseburger meal from mcdonalds. and yes, he got a coke float with it. i took it and drank without hesitation, ignoring both the fries and the burger. seems like years when i last had my float.

    then i saw the smile on his face and said that he read my blog and intentionally bought me a coke float just to see if i can resist it. i am addicted to float! this is getting far too serious! i totally forgot about my entry. but i can always blame my boyfriend, right???? please tell me its his fault... ease my conscience.

    arghhh! how come when i blog about avoiding something, my next blog would be an apology for doing it.

    remember about the vanity thingie and saving up? the next entry was how i went out to have my spa treatment. and today i just came back from the mall where i bought another set of my vmv skin regimen. i needed to replenish my stock coz i love what it did to my skin. but paolo thinks i went overboard. you see, i have this vmv customer rewards program and i want my vmv club membership this month. and since its the first monday of the month, i will earn double points for my purchase, thats what the brochure says. i bought a lot and ended up with 40 accumulated points and a free blush. dont you just love freebies. hahaha.


    i'm trying two new vmv items today, apricot & salicylic clarifying soap for those stubborn pimples on my back and the glykeros toning essence so i can save from my regular diamond peeling sessions. maybe i'll have my next facial treatment next december if everything goes well with my regimen. will tell you the effects soon.

    also, i really love their makeup line. abi picked the toast as my blush before and it totally suits me. i asked for the same color but the counter said they ran out of stock, so i chose the closest one which is peanut butter. it'll take months before i'll go back to vmv. this one's for sure!!!

    today i'm drinking the last coke float i'll ever have for the whole month of august. ***sob***

    i really dont know if i can do this but i feel that i have to. i mean, i cant call mcdonald's everyday at 3am for a coke float delivery. this has been the craziest addiction i ever had. like i can really feel the chill everytime i think of a large glass of coke with vanilla ice cream and really fudgy chocolate syrup. such a creamy drink with occassional shots of choco... feels nothing but heaven.

    but now i feel that i'm overdoing it. i guess scott was right... two servings a day is too much. when i think about all the floats i had versus the two days i spent in the hospital suffering from stomache pains and low blood count... and the frequency of needle-bonding activities i had with the nurses... i decided this has got to stop. i totally know this is too much... so i better quit while its early.

    after all, i have no intentions of changing my blog to cokefloat-addict.blogspot.com like ever!

    damn! i finished my float before i even finished this entry. arghhhh! did i say it was my last???? noooooo!!!!

    to blog or not to blog

    i've been meaning to write something here for a number of times now. but everytime i try to, this dull mind just goes blank. there were instances that i had those stirring moments that i said to myself, 'this should definitely be blogged' but those were the times when im far from my computer. i wish there's some device out there that could extract the entries out of my mind... like a pill of some sort and then put it into words. i'm sure all bloggers out there will be addicted to it. it'll be a sold-out for this net-addicted generation.

    so what happened during those days i wasn't able to go online??? argh!!! this is the hardest part of not blogging everyday. you tend to forget things you want to write about. i read this really weird article about how multitasking degrades our brains. and i tend do that a lot even without meaning to. do you think its true? if it is, then i guess i'm feeling the after-effects right now... im slowly deteriorating especially now that i've become a youtube freak.

    oh right, my boyfriend and i went out for a date. we're the last few couple who are idiotic enough to celebrate the day we became couple BY THE MONTH! i know... i know... it cheesy but i like it that way. but people here call it a monthsary... and even if its not accepted in the english vocabulary, i dont care! i think korean couples celebrate the 100th day they've been together. i'm not sure but thing is, monthsaries are monthsaries. not as grand as anniversary but still IT IS IMPORTANT.

    ok, i was saying, we celebrated our... (hold on, let me run calc), oh 80th monthsary. wow! we decided to watch lindsay lohan's movie just my luck and i can't tell even a single good thing about it. my boyfriend was telling me it was a huge flop in the states but i didn't believe him. by the time we finished it, i was thinking i should get a refund. hell! the producers should even pay us for trying to follow such a lousy storyline. everything about it spelled B-O-R-I-N-G! i can't believe we didn't walk out. maybe because we're dead tired or too lazy to get up. definitely not worth seeing... not even the pirated version!

    also, we dined at italliani's down at gateway mall and first time ever, we had a meal without any meat in it. had a great salad and pasta... very filling. my boyfriend was raising his objections about the no-meat meal. the last we went out, i was trying to keep him from eating (pork)fat. i guess he saw that i might ask more from him next time. i mean, what's good in those stuff anyway. it tastes like some dried-up, frozen already-used-for-the-nth-time cooking oil! i tell you, when i start cooking our meals, it'll be without any fat part (both in pork and beef) and the chicken... i'll have them skinned. i don't know what he liked about those stuff. but then again, many of you wouldn't understand why i even eat balut and isaw (chicken intestines) when you guys can't even look at it. oh well, you just have to try them first. i remembered my dad forced me to eat pork fat since he insists on a no-leftover policy in the house. i threw it all up and got sick the next day. it was gross. but i did try. you guys just have to give yourselves a chance with the balut and isaw. i bet if you didn't know what you're eating... you will be suprised that you'll actually like it.

    i would want to upload some of the pics i took using my cellphone but this laptop doesnt have an IR like my old one. i've been looking for a data cable, maybe you'll see them on my next post. but for now, keep smiling. ciao!
