And since I am tooo lazy to make any book reviews, I won't make any book reviews at all.
Im just happy I finished reading one and is now hopping on to my next reads! :)
And of course, I've been dying to watch this movie soo much!
♥
I am 22! ♥ Part 2
Sharing some of the memories worth sharing!
So, here's the debutant! :p
I looked so plump here.
And here's her escort, my twin sister!
I'll miss BENDITA / AGUA so much! ♥ (we can't decide who is agua or bendita actually.)
With the team. :)
Thanks a lot, I love you! ♥
I am 22! ♥
Can you feel the hesitation as I typed 2 instead of 1.
Yes, I bid goodbye to my tweenteen-one age and say hello to twenteen two!
At least I can still fit in the word teen somewhere. :)
Oh gosh, I am twenty two already.
I just can't believe it. I can't even type the numbers because it will just emphasize how old I am right now.
Way back, I was just a 12 year old girl, looking forward to enter my teen years.
Then there came 16, looking forward to be 18.
Then there came 19 "not looking forward" to 20.
Then here's 21 which is sooo decided to leave, even I can't control it.
Then here's 22, I want it to stay long enough but convinced me to be with me for just 12 months for soon 23 will come without me even knowing it.
I hate numbers and MATH. I just can't understand them.
My birthday celebration was not a blast, but it is a special one.
Me being a simple girl appreciates a lot of simple things in this world.
And just by the presence of my loved and special ones made my day complete and worth looking back.
I may not have gotten what I exactly wanted (be it materially, personally (as in the persons) or emotionally (as in the feelings) but at least I had a fair share of it.
As I leave 21 behind, I say goodbye to all the sadness, bitterness and happiness I've had.
All of those will surely be kept inside my own treasure box.
21 was not the best year. I may even consider it as one of the worst year, but having been blessed and being given the things that I need and somewhat deserve still makes me a lucky girl.
Birthdays are not just a reminder of how old you are.
It is a reminder of how special you have been for the past years of your existence.
Thank you friends and family.
I love you! ♥

This is how I spent my Valentine's Day
So this is how I spent my valentine's day. I totally planned it to be just an ordinary Monday, but then again.. some unforeseen things happened and some of it made me happy, others left me disturbed.
I. Spilling of the beans:
Conversation with my fave person in the office. "Favorite" in a sense that she's the one that i'll be missing the most. Well, the "other one" is an exception. Pero she really became close to me. I dunno, pero even though I make kulit or asar her sa office, she's still the person na super naging comfortable ako. So Bianca, Im gonna miss you, honestly!
So while having our YM conversation, I spilled some of the beans to her. The beans that I've been keeping for so long. I was in total shock pa rin as of now how did she persuaded me to spill those beans! haha! :))
II. The Valentine's Day greeting:
A v-day greeting from a friend which I really didn't like. I mean, i like the person as a friend.. but not as something else. The problem is with the SMS, it's saying a lot of things... things that weren't said in the first place. I don't want to be mean, but if ever we're going to go out.. it supposed to be as "friends" and not as something else because (read III for the reason)
III. When the universe make things easier for you:
Thinking of greeting him on valentine's day, but doesn't have the courage to say it..even on YM? Yeah, im still that old school type. So while contemplating and in deep thought, looking for the best "phrase" that will lead to the greeting, a new chat message pop-out and it came from him! Yes from him! But the message was rather an online confrontation. I was taken aback a bit, but it was funny. It's him, it really is him. And when I greeted him, it turns out he doesn't want "balentayms". It's not balentayms, it is VALENTINE'S. okay? :) Well, at least I will be missed.. And ako na yung madaya, ako na yung biglaang nagdecide. Gusto kong sabihin ang sorry na word sa kanya, kaso I don't feel sorry for quiting. Kaya I decided to persuade him on doing the same step. :)
IV. BLACK SWAN
Finally, had someone dragged to watch this movie. Para walang umiyak, or matakot. Gawin nating COMEDY ang Black Swan, keikei? :)
V. No reply
So of course, I texted "next time" and I wasn't able to receive any reply. I don't feel good about it.
VI. The Last Day
I tear fell when I was in the elevator. Im gonna be back on my birthday. I will miss you guys, I'll be missing home. :)
VII. Date with Mom
Every Valentine's day, I spend time with my Mom. Maybe not because I don't have someone to celebrate it with, but because I want to celebrate it with her. :)
Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

Book Review: I Can’t Believe She Did That
Book Review: I Can’t Believe She Did That
Rating: 2.5 / 5
Almost three-fourths and I’ll finish reading this book, but suddenly I realized that I can’t take it anymore to read it at its end. I dunno, I don’t like the entire concept of this.
Maybe because it’s mainly about women at workplace who:
- Pull other women down just to have that dream promotion.
- Pretend to look clean, innocent and friendly, but in reality they are the ones who do dirty tactics to other women whom they are jealous of.
- Women who are racists and are stereotypes.
- Women who are in general, against other women in the workplace.
When I first saw this book, I thought it was a novel about how to remedy this women-women problem in the workplace, but hell no. I was totally wrong. This book emphasized the current practice of why women do such things, such evil things. It’s more of a “mentor-book” like the ones I had when I was in college. Books that give you numbers, and actual studies from researchers who are expert on this field. Ugh.
I want to read novels, okay?
I’m not saying that “women-pulling-other-women-down-in-the-workplace-syndrome” is a myth. It’s real and is happening in thousands of corporate industries in our world today. It’s just that I can’t take reading about it. It hurts that women say bad things to other women just to be on top. Betrayal, jealousy and dishonesty is a no-no for a woman like me..like us. I just can’t take it.
This is not the right way to be a tough professional. If you choose to be like this one, you’ll have success temporarily. It’s soo not right. Kawawa naman kayo!
Maybe I’ll be going back to read this book again if ever I encounter such on my entire career. Good thing I haven’t been to such kinds of situation similar to those pitiful women on the book.
It’s up to you if you wanna read this. I won’t recommend this, really! Sorry Nan Mooney.
Going now to my next reads. Hope it’s a good one now!
A conversation with Phil Younghusband
Everybody's going gaga over the Azkals win last night against the Mongolians!
Honestly, Im not a fan of football, though most of my crushes way back in highschool do love to play football.
Maybe because I don't want to wait too long in order to see the results, meaning a score.
I prefer tennis more. ♥
But since the Azkals are winning and is starting to bring pride for the Filipinos, I'm starting to love the game just as how I started to watch boxing whenever Manny Pacquiao enters the ring.
But today is my lucky day! Me and my friend had a conversation with Phil Younghusband, and it all started with this:
Twitverse went too excited with this twitromance between Phil and Angel. I was too kinikilig with what I saw, but Angel turned him down due to work. (haaay, work nga naman.) One of my tweetfriends was too excited too and here's how our conversation started with Phil!
A conversation with Phil Younghusband with him not tweeting back to us. HAHA!
Checked my twitter at this hour, no tweets yet. Do we have to be patiently waiting? >:)
It's Valentine's Day once again.
I wonder what's in store for me. Well, Im gonna say "I Love You" to all the special people around me.
I'm still in doubt if I can already say how special that person is in my life right now.
I've let soo many opportunities past, with soo many people who already left.
Oh well. Monday "might be" just an ordinary day.
Barbie and Ken ♥
Okay... enough of all the drama I posted last night.
Lezzgoback to reality and leave the emotional state for the mean time.
I've been reading blogs this morning and this is what I've found!

For more info, click here: http://mashable.com/2011/02/04/reunite-barbie-ken/
OMG! They did split last 2004? Why? I definitely have no news about that.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be barbie. I love her clothes, her long beautiful hair and slender body.
I even had a crush named Ken.. Ken Ono. hahaha!
I wonder where he is now. :p
I give kudos to the advertising agency behind this. From twitter to facebook and other social networking sites, Ken's doll love to barbie ultimately reached a lot of people like wildfire. And it's really in time for valentine's day. It's too cute!
From Ken: “Barbie could spend hours looking at the timeless art, and I could spend hours looking at Barbie.” ♥♥
Mattel is eager to see them together again. Well, as a fan.. I want them to be together. It's the love month. Let dolls have lovelifes too! :D
Nakakalungkot
I know this is not right.
I made my decision...and I made it when I was confused, determined and rattled all at the same time.
I remember, I cannot press that "send" button at once. In short.. I'm just 90% sure.
Where is my 10%?
It's in my heart.
Believe me..as I am typing right at this moment, my eyes are slowly filled-up with tears.
And I just don't know why.
When I made my decision, im so brave, so sure.
Like no one can ever stop me.
But why am I feeling this way NOW.
When she said I can go on and need not to finish my 2 weeks...
it's like a pain in my chest, swallowing my whole self..making me feel weak.
This is what I wanted. Why feel this way?
I slowly start to miss the whole place, the people around me, all the things we've done inside that room.
All the laughters we've shared, all the rants, all the lovey moments.
And soon, I'll be leaving it. :(
And when I saw his face.
It made a tear fell from me.
And now Im crying like hell.
Yes, I won't deny anymore.
You are special.
..and I know it's a one way ticket for me.
But at least I've said it.
You are special.
And I've got no chance to say it in front of you anymore.

Kid Crush!
I have a confession to make, major major!!
First of all, I'm really fond of cute boys. I want to have a younger brother ever since I realized I wanted to have a "kapatid", since I am an only child. My Mom considered it to be weird and she always laughs at me when I say to her that I want a baby brother! Or I want my first child to be a boy, the cute one. :D
Then last Saturday, I watched Maalala Mo Kaya. MMK's episode was about young love. Nash Aguas falling in love with Toni Gonzaga, then eventually they fell in love with each other and ended up happily ever after. I soo love the story and I was "kinikilig" pa while watching the episode. Love doesn't choose age talaga...Age doesn't matter. As long as you feel it real, it will take you to places. :)
So for those who haven't seen the episode yet, here's the teaser video I've searched on youtube just to gave you an idea. Anyway, what I also love about this episode is that Nash Aguas became a grown-up Sam Concepcion in the end. I like Sam! ♥
But speaking of KID CRUSH!
I crush Nash Aguas. HAHAHAHA! Not the malicious one.. I want him to be my younger brother, just like how I demanded from my Mom. :p
And now that he is 12 years old. He looks cute pa rin! I want you to be my brother Nash!! ♥
He has the haircut mala Justin Bieber, he acts well and he looks handsome na rin as he goes on to his teenage years. awwww. :)
Kid Crush! Yes, forgive me. :)

Times when I'm reminded to go on DIET!!!
Random conversation with my friend thru SMS:

Friend: Mas cute pa kesa kay Daniel?
Me: hinde. mas cute si daniel syempre!!! nameet ko na kaya siya in person. waaaah! medyo friends narin kami :p swerte si heart ng sobra!!! (and i mean it.)

Yeah, right! Ang mga kaibigan ko talaga, ang bait-bait. super! Cge na, magma-MACHETE DIET NA AKO!!! :p
Food Of Love
Just finished reading this book by Anthony Capella.
What I love about this is that it talks about Italian foods and the way how these foods can make someone you love fall for you in the simplest, most elegant way.
Ever since I started working, I started to collect books and read them during my spare time.
Mura lang naman yun mga books (which I usually buy at Book Sale), but the stories are great, novels are well written by authors from all over the globe.
Ang criteria ko lang naman when reading a book is that when I like its cover, I'm gonna buy it at once!
Off to my next book!
Im very much excited to start it and read the beauty inside of it. :)
Before I go to sleep...
Before I tuck-in, I wanna share something before these things slip my mind.
3 kinds of LUCK (in time for Kung Hei Fat Choi)
Heaven Luck
This is what we call DESTINY. What the heavens and the universe have destined us to be with or the things that are really given to us in purpose.
Mankind Luck
This is the kind of luck that goes to us if we give it an extra shot, an extra effort.. if we go to an extra mile. This luck will be given to those who work hard and who are ready to face head on the challenges that come our way.
Earth Luck
This is the kind of luck that we receive when we go in motion with the earth. The rotation of the planets, the location of our stars, all of these have significant meanings to our whole being which can bring us good luck.
So, there you have it! The 3 kinds of luck as per Mr. Boy Abunda. I just overheard this while I was busy listening (not watching) SNN. I believe in Heaven Luck and Mankind Luck. I do hope I'll receive good lucks from these 2 for the New Year of the Golden Rabbit.
Ciao!
I am sooo back!
Freedom! Finally!
This is what I call F-R-E-E-D-O-M!
Though I sometimes feel a bit bitter sweet.
But, nevertheless, it's not yet time for me to think about those things, isn't it?
I want to reach my dreams. So for now, I must reach the summit!
When I'm there, Im on top! :)
I just would like to share that for the past few days, I've been down with a flu.
Yes, flu, virus, whatever you call it.
I've taken like 4 biogesics and 6 bioflus.
Now, I don't want to take one anymore because I feel like I'm naooverdose na. haha!
I'll just settle with water therapy, in that way every bad temperature and liquids inside my body will be washed out so that I can feel better very soon!
Haaaay, love month na again?
Mukhang malungkot na naman ang V-day ko.
Last year I was sooo over excited with the "Valentines Day" movie na hindi ko naman napanood ever.
And when I finally watched it on DVD, I was disappointed and was happy that I didn't waste my 150.00 for its movie tickets.
Now, I'm not that "very much looking forward" for Feb 14, but Im a bit curious what might happen.
Im not expecting anything from anyone.
But if there's one.
Hello! ♥ :)
