no fair!
Monday, October 30, 2006
life's really so unfair.just this evening... barely 8pm, my boyfriend called and ask me to buy him a vampire cape. they're having halloween costume instead of their usual office attire. so i rush to the mall to look for one... the malls close at 9pm. unfortunately, all the black capes were sold out, even those in the kid's section. (hmmm, come to think of it, they only have it on the kid's section). i had to find an alternative, so i bought a yard of black cloth and ribbon then rush to the nearest alteration shop. asked the person to just sew the hem and put a fold where i could put the ribbon. at first they wouldn't accept it coz it's almost closing time. so i said i need it badly for my kid brother for his trick or treat tonight. the poor (superficial) kid was crying. and i had to say that its a batman cape. hahahaha.
so in less than an hour, i had a cape for him. i was able to give him just before his shift started. and as soon as i got home, went online... he sent me a message that they will be using the cape tomorrow... not today! argh! he wont be able to use the stupid cape coz i'm already planning how to murder him tomorrow!!! i'm gonna kill him!
sigh... we (my officemates and i) thought of having a halloween dinner tomorrow. we saw this website that delivers food packages that's really cheap. i asked red before and she said she had tried their food and it wasnt bad. thing is, the food is good for 20 people and i cant find any willing person to join us. that's the downside of having four people in an office. can't have parties with a large crowd. i remember last christmas, we only had a sit-down dinner with a pre-arranged meal. and we had banana cream pie for desert.... i mean, they had banana cream pie. i didnt. i dont like bananas at all... unless i am forced to, or if i didnt have a choice (like when i was at the hospital where the only edible "thing" they served me were fruits... ie. banana), i wouldnt eat it. i like it better back in my asti days where we had presentations by departments.
bani, one of my ex-collegue at asti sent me a ym last week that they're plannning to have a reunion together with all the old preginet team... that includes me! yey! i would definitely come. i miss the noisy crowd... i hope it'll happen soon.
thats all for now... have to plan my first ever murder. wish me luck. ciao!

blogger's trick or treat
Sunday, October 29, 2006
i kept on getting:001 java.net.ConnectException: Connection refusedblog/16/62/15/h2omelon-gurl/2006/10/trick-or-treat_29.html.
it's really annoying as i tried to delete and re-create this post over and over. now that i had it posted (somehow... though i really dont know i managed to do just that)... i cant seem to edit it. i have disabled the archiving as earlier it was saying that it fails to create the archived file for 10/01 (my archived setting is by month). it seems now blogger fails to create an individual html for my post.
maybe just blogger is playing tricks this halloween.... help, anyone???

trick or treat!
happy halloween everyone!!!
i totally forgot about halloween. last year, i planned on going to a halloween costume ball or something to that effect. why? coz every year, since i had a chance to go to a mall one halloween and saw all those cute kids wearing their costume, i kept on saying to myself that i missed THAT during my childhood days.
when i was young, i'm more or a school-type kid (no... not nerd or geek, ok? its just that i enjoy school). i rarely watch tv at home and spent lots of time reading books and listening to story-telling audio tapes. i took that habit now as i enjoy books than movies. i dont regret that part, really. coz now, my eyes are being abused as i tend to spend most of my time in front of my laptop. errr, not that reading didnt go well with my eyesight... but nevermind. what i missed out was the partying part. i guess i didnt do much of that during highschool. and my college days was more like a blur to me. what i can remember was i had fun with my org (organization). without it, you could brand me as a nerd and i wouldnt raise a finger against it. anyways, i never had a chance to attend a halloween ball or even join a trick or treat as well... even as a kid. the 25 halloweens just went flew past me. now, every halloween i try to go to the mall and watch the kids wearing all these crazy outfits as they try to scavenge goodies/loots as much as they can. i wish i could do that at my age. guess, im too old huh?
i dont know about you guys, but i think its really cool. say, if i could, i wonder what i would wear? hmm.... maybe i'd be the devil... like elizabeth hurley in that movie... what's the title again???!!! argh, its that funny movie with brendan frazer. or i could be a genie.... or wear a japanese anime school girl uniform. hahaha. i dont want to be a fairy or a princess as every girl wants to be one.
maybe next year. but then again, i'll be 26 and too old for it. sigh! too bad.

i'm beck...
Tuesday, October 24, 2006
hey! hey! hey! it feels good to be back. and you know what? it feels better knowing that you guys are still visiting my site even if i've been quiet for a while.... and i mean really took me some time to write another exciting entry here. NOT! nahaha, but seriously, i'm really suprised that friends come and read what i've written here.enough of that. So what has happened? well, i got addicted to work, for the nth time. a lot has happened to my social life, too. i'm helping a friend right now and everything is going smoothly at this point. i wanted him to be okay before my birthday comes that's why I've been very busy.
also, i think i just fell off the most likeable person in the office. not that i've been on that list ever... hahaha. let's just say, i take work seriously nowadays... or at least try to most of the time. and more people keeps on telling me that life isn't a sprint, its a marathon. that i better slow down before life itself wears me off. i know they're right... i would stand back and look at the flowers and the trees and the sunset and things like that in due time.
i think that me knocking myself on a glass window knocked some sense into my mind to say the least. yup, those funny videos where people walk straight through a closed glass door happened to me. and yes, i've confirmed that it DOES hurts... A LOT! i dont know what really went that day, i was spacing out again, walking zombie-like and BAM! walked straight to a closed glass door of an ATM counter. my boyfriend keeps on asking if its possible to get a copy of the video that day so he could upload it on youtube or something. i said no... i dont really want to be THAT popular.
and to those asking for my birthday... yes, its coming this november. OH! i have to tell you this as well... its a tradition here in my country that if you ask for a person's birthday and that person tells you the date, you are then "obligated" to give a gift on that day. ok...fine! so maybe that's no such thing as that here in the philippines. but can someone make a tradition like that? i mean, it wouldnt do any harm at all, right?
now for the good news... NBA season is just about to start. hurray!!! life wouldnt be as boring for me as it is right now... and no! this time, i'm not rooting for any team as last year's season didnt go as i planned. but at least nets topped the atlantic division. err, now its obvious what team i'd go for this year. hahaha. geez! and i havent updated myself with any news whatsoever on nets or even nba. i guess that's why im to shy to accept any invitation for fantasy leagues. but at least i can watch the games wearing my nets jersey this season (thanks to lenny). my team got top rookies this draft, though i havent really read their profiles. i'm reading the nets page as i write. omg! im sooo excited as i heard that the rookies played well in their preseason matches.
and have you seen nash lately? he's HOT with he's new do compared to last season's. still, its amazing how a basketball game can turn gumpy men to hotties. ahem... err, enough with girl's stuff. i know most of the readers here are men. i just happened to take a note of that so you might have some ideas blah-blah-blah-blah-blah...
as i was saying, nets just took in some key rookies this year. the management seems to be finding ways to lessen kidd's game exposure and got themselves a new set of guards. well, it isnt a suprise at all... nets is a transition team. and bringing in slow players will hurt their game play. i'm not saying that kidd's is becoming slow but i'm not too star-struck and not think that year can catch up with players. he still plays great in my view anyway... ok so maybe i am too star-struck... so what?!! i know he's the best PG in my time. nash only places second. and i dont really care what other people would say. still, i feel bad about not having abdur-rahim on board. something about the med results, i heard. again, health is of outmost importance to the team. everyone knows that carter-jkidd-jefferson is the best trio in the league. the downside is that, they havent got good bench players to support their game power. ofcourse, krstic is becoming a key player this time around. lets just see who would shine this season.
what's to watch out this year... next to my nets. err, how's amare? will the rockets still have a streak of bad injuries this year? is the lakers going to become a team ever? will the mavericks come into the finals again? let's not talk about miami. fine... did shaq really lose weight? (what? i said something, didnt i?) how will my west pick (spurs) come out this year? wondered why cassell remained with clippers? and so much more! im sooo excited. so i may not join a fantasy league this time around, but i'll make sure to update myself with everything i got till the finals. too bad, i didnt win any free trip to see nba live from all the gatorade bottletops i've collected. sigh! but who knows... maybe someone out there might give me tickets and free airfare to see my team live in action for a birthday gift... or a christmas gift... or a new year's gift... or a how-are-you-just-thought-you-may-want-to-see-a-nets-game gift? i wouldnt lose hope. i just hope that i see kidd play before he retires. i still got time. no worries. though i saw a vid of him speaking about retirement. i dont see that in the near future though, i hope. for now, i'm happy that nba's about to finish its pre-season. i just loveeee november!!!

has she died???
Tuesday, October 10, 2006
wow! almost half-a-month of no entries. not to disappoint those people who think that this boring blogger went "poof!"... sorry but im still alive.so what happened? a lot, really. i've been chatting with friends on YM... less than before though... and decided to divert most of my free time thinking. which isn't any better. not that i'm not capable of thinking at all (duh-uh!) but when i think, i usually end up worrying about things that could have been and should have been.
what went inside my mind during the past few weeks?
relationships can both cause you joy and troubles. being sooo much inlove can cause a lot of damage to you and to the people around you. try to keep it to a sensible level. dont ever forget yourself EVER. yes, your partner is important... but so are you. hear this all single people out there, you are lucky to be free so dont ever settle with someone who just happen to be an easy catch. i know how exciting it is to let the heart decides on everything but remember, brain comes first before the heart. unless you can handle it... meaning you wont regret anything, its best to play logic over feelings.
and no... this is not about me. i just happen to have someone so dear that went to the extremes, just for love. i hate to see him suffer. my mom was affected to what had happened to him that i even heard her say that girls are nothing but trouble (i think she forgot that i'm a girl! i say, so are men!). but i hate the fact that my friend is suffering right now because of this stupid, ugly girl. where is she? has she died? i hope not... death is too good for her. she messed with the best-est of my guy friends, of all people! how could she!!!
but then again, who i am to judge? i've done bad things in the past. errr... but that doesnt mean i couldnt hate this person! i really dont know if i should be discussing this on my blog. maybe i should talk with my friend first.
