I saw this cool promo on my Mom's facebook home page because I never "liked"
VS fan page.. (now I will) and look at my entry.
Yes, fine. I'm not really that creative.. I deserve to be in the accounts work in advertising! :))
Well, not bad for a first timer.
But I just can't help but to compare my work to others.. this one will definitely not win.
Good news is that you're not limited to one entry.
I have to make a new "catchy" set again. :)

The Time

I've been surfing the net while thinking of the right words to write here in my blog.
I can't find the right inspiration, but I've got a whole lot of ideas here in my head.
What I need is a song.
A song that can help me put into words all the things right here in my head.
Marry You by Bruno Mars won't help.
This song kept on playing like 50 times since I sat here in my chair.
I switched to You Made Me Smile by Uncle Kracker
---no results---
Then I remembered this new song,
first time I saw this video, I saw it from him.
The Time by Black Eyed Peas
Yup, I need an upbeat song to help me pull through with this one.
Well, what's on my mind is just plain simple.
I just feel so COMPLICATED.
I can see things but those things are not that clear to prove the truth that I want to see
and hear.
I don't need to really HEAR it STRAIGHT TO THE POINT.
All i want is to see it.
Yeah, Im seeing things but it's not enough.
Evidences are not too strong.
WHAT SHOULD I DO?
heck.


To translate in tagalog:
ANG LABO MO KASI EH! :(

Or maybe, 
IM JUST BLIND! :(


♫ I’ve had the time of my life
And I’ve never felt this way before
And I swear this is true
And I owe it all to you ♫


Oh well, I just don't want to waste time thinking.
Because I'm tired of thinking.
I don't even want to rush things
because Im tired of seeing the side effects I've experienced last May-June 
(i still hate you, whoever/wherever you are.haha!)

Bahala na nga.


Golden Spoon Madness


Frozen Yogurts (or most commonly known as FroYo) are the best!
Most especially when you have one from Golden Spoon!


I want mine when it's mixed with cookies or chocolate dips like this one.
I love my FroYos with chocolates. ♥
The combination of the sour and sweet taste takes me to heaven, everytime!
 Plus, eating one with a golden spoon adds to its coolness.


Blogging about this late at night makes me wanna go to the nearest Golden Spoon.
Typhoon Juan makes me crave for FroYos, seriously!
(while some of my friends crave for goto, daing and champorado. haha!)

October Books Galore

Maybe it's because of my age?
Because surprisingly, these past few days, I get fond of buying books.
Actually, its quite addictive.
Every salary day, I have to buy a book!
By hook or by crook!
I've got a good source to buy good books!
And so far, it never failed me.
And what's good is that they're all great!
Well, as for me, I just look at its cover.. and then when I liked it,
I'LL BUY IT! ♥




 1. She's Come Undone - Meet Dolores Price. She's thirteen, wise mouthed but wounded, having bid her childhood good-bye. beached like a whale in front of her bedroom TV, she spends the next few years nourishing herself with the Mallomars, potato chips, and Pepsi her anxious mother supplies. When she finally rolls into young womanhood at 257 pounds, Dolores is no stronger and life is no kinder. But this time she's determined to rise to the occasion and give herself one more chance before really going belly up.

2. The Food Of Love - this book revolved around 3 personas:
a. Laura Patterson - is studying art history in Rome. She's decided that from now on she';; only go out with a man who can cook.
b. Tommaso Massi  - handsome and silver tongued, tells Laura that he's a chef at one of Italy's best restaurants. In fact, he's just a humble waiter.
c. His best friend, Bruno - who really is a chef - a brilliant one - is called upon to help. But when he also falls for Laura, the sparks begin to fly...

3. I Can't Believe She Did That - This book is mostly about the deep-rooted and misleading cultural belief that "good girls support one another, bad girls do not" and its effect on how women handle conflict in their professional relationships.


Believe me or not,
Im still not yet finished with the first one (The She's Come Undone book)
and as of now, I have plans to buy a new set again.
Of course, I'll wait for my salary day first. :p
Im a bookworm by heart,
I just forgot how to practice it. ♥


It all started with...

Friday morning,
It all started with a call from someone
then ended up not giving what she needed and resorting to informing this person
regarding his particular call.

Friday afternoon,
It all started with a hand on someone's lap
just because this person bumped this girl not knowing that she's right at his back.
It took about 8 to 10 seconds before he finally let go of that hand.
The girl was shocked, what's funny is that she never reacted.
This girl just waited for that hand of his be removed from her lap.

Friday: 5pm
It all started with a shared chocolate cookie,
and the discovery that she loves sweets.
Well, apparently, this girl ultimately loves sweets.
In fact she had caramel frappe at Starbucks earlier  during a meeting for one campaign.
But, according to her, that cookie seemed special,
in a very confusing way.

Friday: 6:30pm
It all started with the fear of traffic,
and leaving the office when sun is still up.
Mall sales are everywhere, and people are rushing to go home before they're caught by the traffic.
But this girl was reluctant to go home
and the guy was hungry.
So they decided to stay.
Funny that it may seem, you'll find a reason as long as you want to.
But sometimes you doubt it and believe in that certain connection
between these two people.

Friday: Milk Shake
It all started with foregoing the busy bee and deciding to go with the clown.
The guy asking for a treat but in the end, it turned out that everything's on his.
Feeling sorry for dragging her to eat rather than strolling the mall,
the catch is a strawberry milk shake.
Not thinking about anything, this girl sipped and enjoyed her drink.
But at the back of her mind,
she has to prepare for the next treat.
So, does this mean there's still a next time?

Friday: Book Inventory
It all started with the girl's excitement to go around the mall.
And due to art
they decided to go to a bookstore and check out
supplies and books.
Well, looking at every sort of book is fun!
Plus a short field trip to Philippine literature was cool.
This girl doesn't have enough knowledge when it comes to this.
She just reads and reads and reads.
Without knowing the author at all.

Friday: Monster bag
It all started with a trip on the upper floor
Humorously funny!
This girl is quite curious if she'll see this guy bring this monster bag to office.
Well, bags are cool at Clippers! :D

Friday: You're Electrifying
It all started with the bumping of shoulders.
The girl lied when she said she didn't felt it.
Someone between the two must use Veet!
Just because the guy's electrifying too, literally!

Friday: Low Batt
It all started with the love for books!
Another Book inventory
this time, it's getting way darker.
4 hours straight and that's it! 10pm and it's time to go home.
But the two were unstoppable.
Book searching, book field trip!
But the pop-ups were the best! :D
Damn, both of them were low batt..
blame it on the store with a turned-off aircon!
Grrrr!

Friday: Unused Napkin
It all started with sweat.
The girl was perspiring and hallucinating (due to heat)
damn, she got no tissue and handkerchief.
While walking their way to their destination,
the guy handed her an unused tissue napkin.
It may sound gross, but it is sweet.
Most of the things she need that day were granted!
Felt like someone special, honestly!

Friday: Part ways
It all started with the view of the MRT.
Everything has its end.
The real question is: Do they really want to part ways?
Well, both of them were sleepy heads.
They really have to let go.

Friday: Thank You message
It all started with the girl's cellphone.
And to thank the guy in writing, she texted her
with a "thank you" and "goodnight" note.
The safety checking was sweet though.
It's been a while since she experienced it.

It all started with this Friday.
And if everything has its end..
then everything has its continuation between the starting and ending point, right?

Allergies and a Decolgen

It's a baaad morning for me.
Runny nose. Cold morning.
Sore throat. Lazy Tuesday.
But Im looking forward to go to work.
I prayed for lots of GOOD VIBES to come my way this week.
God is really good. He listen to my prayers.

I wore something red today.
Mind you, a red sweater.
Because Im not really feeling ok.
I feel like Im going to be sick.
Plus checking my office email gives me a headache.
Checking it wakes me to the reality that I am a working girl now.
And I've got lots of responsibilities.
Ok, CLIENTS! Bombard me with your revisions.
Well, it turns out that I should be the one who must make kulet to them.
Or else they'll make me rush things.
How about my SOCIAL LIFE?
I miss you. Well, Social life with my officemates isn't bad at all.
It is FUN actually.

And then there came DECOLGEN.
My medicine.
One of the things that overwhelmed me a lot today.
Geez, good thing it's a no-drowse med.
Or else.. I'll be sleeping all day long.
But still, making me overwhelmed in the first place
will stop me from falling asleep.
hahahaha!
Thank You! :D

It turns out to be a GOOD Tuesday after all. :)

Britney Spears is ze BOMB!


Alright!
I can't take it any more. I can't help myself
but to blog about the Britney Spears episode of GLEE.
GAAAAAAAH!
I sooo love it!
Really love it to the nth power! :)
And Heather Morris rocks! She really looks like Britney Spears.
Brittany S. Pears is in the house! 


And now, what am I doing?
Here I am, listening to Britney Spears' songs.
My golly!!! I miss her songs!
"Sometimes"
"From the Bottom of my Broken Heart"
"Toxic"
"Im a Slave 4 U"
and the list goes on and on and on.. 
Im a Britney Spears fanatic. hahaha!

Kaso Britney has come of age na talaga. She no longer has this bubbly look waaaay before.
Of course, what do we expect?
She has kids na and she undergone lots of things.
But she still has this sexy bod! That's undeniably true! :D

Im soo kilig of Finn din.
I can be Rachel if Finn's around.
Just don't let him dance. hahaha! :))

I better hit the sack now.
Im eagerly looking forward for the next episode.
But wait, I miss BARNEY!!

HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER where are you?!?!
waaaaah!
BARNEY BARNEY! ♥

Whirlwind and Roller Coasters

I've been to a number of whirlwinds and roller coasters in my life
for the past 9 months this year.
I honestly didn't expect 2010 to be like this. 
All I know is that I wished for a good year way back New Year's Eve
and promised myself to start my serious diet plan. 
I never forsee something like this.
And I never imagined to meet new people, lose new and old people and to
be friends with people whom I lost one point in my life. 

I just can't explain how I feel right now.
Past 6 months was hell
and the middle of my other 6 months is like close to heaven. :)
Life can really be unpredictable.
And I am a living proof that can testify to that saying of
"There's a rainbow always after the rain.."
or the
"God make you experience things in purpose."

2010 was so far the craziest year of my life.
And Im just 21 years old.
I'm wondering what's more in store for me. :)

I'm starting to laugh now for doing such things early this year.
It's a good sign for me.
It means I'm starting to learn.
It means Im starting to clinch that maturity part somewhere within me.
Im starting to say bye bye to the child in me and Im on my way to embracing
the reality of adulthood.
That no things are easy to take...
that every decision has its own consequences. 
And I can say I am dumb.
REALLY DUMB!

Life was quite unfair for me.
Because no one better came along after the first one.
In fact, if I were to compare, this person was far worst than the other one.
But somehow.. this person just came along to teach me a lesson.
That patience is a REAL virtue.
And that those who wait are blessed with great things.
Thanks to you.
And wherever you are, get a LIFE!
haha!

Life gets a bit "suprisey" for me these days.
I just can't say it straight to the point here.
But happiness can be spelled out from what you're reading here.
Everything seemed fine for me.

Everything came the PERFECT TIME!
And everything is and will be worth my wait, including you. ♥
Meeting you again was least expected.
Meeting you in this place was expected
And everything will fall into place soon as we both enjoy the roller coaster ride of our lives. :)

Reality Check: BER MONTH not BEER month

It's the BER month
and its cold.
I mean, the weather. Right timing ang pag-ulan.
Kaso its making me sick.
I wasn't able to go to office yesterday because of the bad weather. I have body pains, plus
I have a slight fever.
No, this cannot be a sign of dengue.
I have calamine lotion to protect me at all means.
You know what, ever since I was a kid.. i was bitten by mosquitoes all over my legs.
My mom even apply calamine lotion all over my legs so that when mosquitoes bite me
they'll get poisoned. haha!
As in both of my legs were cover with calamine lotion.
Eh its color pink pa naman when its applied to the legs,
so people mistakenly thought me of wearing a pink stockings. haha!
They were really surprised.
So I have high hopes that I won't be getting the dengue fever.
Please Lord. Not me. Not me!

So reality check.
I'm enjoying life right now.
So far Im happy and contented with my job.
Just like what other people said, you'll stay on your job as long as you love what you're doing
and you love the people around you.
Well, that's another story.
But I like the company of my officemates.
They are fun to be with.
Plus the work is fun.
So its a win win situation for me.
I thank God for the giving me this gift finally.
I'll take good care of it. :)

Reality check again.
I'm missing my friends alot.
Both highschool and college friends.
Iba talaga ang samahan when it comes to your friends whom you meet when you're still studying,
I miss their company.
They are just the best!
The people whom I can say whatever things I can say.
The people whom I'm comfortable with.
The people whom I like to share my secrets and my endless dramas.
The people who never gets tired to listen and give me advices.
I just miss them. :) I hope they miss me too.

Reality check. 
HEART.
Well, heart is now on the recovery stage.
Its beating well fine now. Compared to its status way back July to August.
The worst months for me.
Well, syempre.. I'm still affected sometimes.
Pero not that much na.
I don't miss that person anymore.
I don't miss talking to him anymore.
I think he can pass by me and it won't matter to me anymore.
But I'm still affected. Its just normal.
But I can go on now.
No special person for me as of the moment.
But as of now.. Im beginning to realize stuffs.
I just have to make it slowly but surely.
I've learned that things that you rush doesn't last at all.
I have to be sure this time.
 
Yes, its BER month.
Christmas season is here.
It will be a busy Christmas season for me.
And a rich christmas season for me as well. haha!
A BIG NO for BEER MONTH
Smokers and heavy drinkers die waaaaay ahead of those people who live cleanly.

I know everything will be fine.
I just know it. :)

Finally reunited with her Federbear

After weeks, or should I say months
of finding the right day to which our schedule perfectly fits
we finally had it!
Me and Elizah, a friend whom I met at the forums at RF.com (rogerfederer.com)
had a meet-up at Trinoma so that I can give her her Federbear
which was also given to us as Christmas presents last year
by our dear friend Kai whom we also met at rogerfederer.com
For those who doesn't know what kind of site rogerfederer.com is,
let me just inform you that its the official site of my favorite tennis player
Roger Federer.
And what is a Federbear?
Its a stuffed teddy bear which represent Roger Federer in the world
of stuff toys.
Its a mini teddy bear and I tell you its quite expensive most espeacially if you have to order it online
(since its only your option)
plus the shipment.
It will cost you lots of money!
But one of our friend is soo lovely that she gave us federbears as christmas presents.
I just lack a RF cap.
I eagerly want one ever since I was first year college. haha!
I'll soon buy one.
Or maybe someone can give one to me again as a gift. *wink*

Here's our pictures.
Funny because as I was looking at our 2 pics,
it seems like my face was just the same. hahaha!
Copy paste?
haha!





Federbears rocks!

We haven’t talked for a while now.

Usually I don’t miss you, but we were once crazy for each other at one point, 
so I do think about you from time to time. 
I have a feeling that we’re going to be alright. 
I keep having these crazy dreams about us and I believe they’re telling me something. 
I miss you tonight. 
I don’t want to get back together anymore. 
I’ve accepted the fact that me and you will never work out in the end 
no matter how hard we try. 
But I really wish that we could be friends sometimes. 
We were good as friends.
I’m waiting for the day that you muster up the courage to say hi to me again.

The difference between JUNE 30 and JULY 30

I shouldn't have made this blog entry
because it would just make me feel sick.
But everytime I try to realize it,
there's a BIG difference between my
JUNE 30 and JULY 30.
Let me jot down what I know.

JUNE 30
- I am bothered
- I am problematic
- I kept thinking about some thing. Or should I say, someone.
- I am desperate
- I still don't know what career path I really want to undertake
- I am sad
- I have mixed emotions
- I text you once a day
- We are friends.
- You said sorry
- I try to hold on
- The start of my GLOOMY days -

July 30
- I am one step away towards my dream career
- I am FINE
- I have my goals set
- I am no longer bothered
- I've got peace of mind
- I start to meet new friends
-  We are friends, at least that's what I know.
- I feel sorry for you
- I start to let go
- The start of my FREEDOM days -

**************************************************
One month really changes everything.
You just have to let yourself be changed, not only by time.
Everything happens for a reason.
I must live with it. 

Sweet tooth dilemma: SOLVED!

2 weeks ago I was having this major craving for something sweet.
Chocolate Sundae? = FAILED
Chocolates? = FAILED
Donuts? =FAILED
Kahit scramble nalang, FAILED parin.
Meron na plang scramble sold in Megamall.. so hindi na yung mga scramble sold in the street. :p
Pero I'm a fan of street foods. :))
Anyway, going back.
I was super depressed because I wasn't able to buy the food that I want.
I dunno. It's weird.
I think I was too busy the past few weeks.
That's why.


But thank goodness for Go Nuts Donuts
It answered my prayers. haha!
Swept my cravings all the way!




MY FIRST VICTIM!!!

Ang over ba?
Super dami ng donuts. haha!
Actually, I dragged my Mom to buy these donuts!
Well, my Mom is a big fan of donuts so I've got no problems there.
What's good is that when you buy 6 pcs of Go Nuts Donuts, you get another 6 pcs for free.
They have this promo for their vanilla cake and chocolate butterscotch donuts.
The orange ones.
It's for free because it is new in the market.
Sort of a taste test.
Yeah, MARKETING STRATEGY!
It works naman for a Marketer like me!
My sweet tooth super likes it!

So we bought 12 donuts
and got 12 free.
We have 2 dozens in our fridge now!
24 donuts all in all.

YUM YUM!!!
♥ Sweet tooth dilemma SOLVED! ♥

Serendipity


"You don't have to understand. You just have to have faith. Faith in Destiny."

I was around 14 yrs old when I first watched this movie.
And since then this movie became my all-time favorite! ♥
I was a bit surprised actually since I began to appreciate this movie way back in my teenie-weenie age. 
I really can't remember exactly why.
Well, I'm sure I haven't been in love with that age. haha!
Maybe I just had my crush back then.
Yeah, I remember one. He made me appreciate this movie.
Maybe I was thinking back then that when we are both ready,
our paths will meet again and start our own love story. :')

I don't know.
I can't explain why I love this movie.
Same as how others soo love Notting Hill or Pretty Woman. (for my Mom)
Maybe I can watch this like thrice a day and won't get tired of it. 
That's how I love it.
It always captures something inside of me.
Not only because ICE SKATING is featured in this movie.. (haha!)
But there is still something else.
Somewhere in my being that believes in what we call DESTINY or FATE in the UNIVERSE.

It's really hard to hold on to DESTINY because we are too uncertain about it.
We always have our 
"buts"
"what ifs" or
"what could have been"
 I myself don't want to believe in it because I am
IMPATIENT.
I want things rush, I want them to happen way fast.
But maybe with all the things that had happened or is happening to me,
the universe if making me realize that
everything happens for a reason and that I should just have to have faith.
FAITH IN DESTINY.
