In Between

without much to do today due to my sore throat and slight fever, i thought i'd show a little variety by posting a video blog. the whole thing is a mess but i'm posting it anyway. in my defense, i used my camera for this purpose and it has a weird background noise which is annoying. so if you're not into that, don't watch this. haha. P.S. there is a point in the video that i referred to something as a "mug thing". what i actually meant to say was tumbler. P.P.S. i'm missing 2 gifts because my family ate them up: 1. cookies from bo and 2. brownies from irene. P.P.P.S. kindly excuse the pen thing. i know its stupid. merry christmas everyone.

i don't care! life is too short to be wondering 'what if?'. sometimes you just gotta live, see what happens, even if you get hurt. sometimes you can only feel something if you take a risk... -Charlyne Yi my review for paper heart has been pending for weeks. it took me several viewings to finally think of something to say. maybe because, this is one of those films that really struck me as brilliant and i wanted to be able to write something that's cohesive enough for people to understand. paper heart centralizes on an important question that had baffled each and every one of us at some point in our lives: "Does true love really exist?". this led charlyne yi on a quest across different parts of america to film a documentary about love, which she claims she never felt and doesn't believe in. during her journey, she met a guy (michael cera), who eventually became her boyfriend and subsequently led her to be open to the possibility of loving someone. the

tempting...but no. Photo taken: bus in Ayala i am so behind at everything. my christmas shopping. my tasks. my social activities. and my personal goals. it is really starting to scare me. last night was the company christmas party. wasn't able to enjoy it much since i'm down with the flu (again). i think my new year's resolution should include drinking more vitamins and avoiding staying up too late. *sigh* i hate being sick. thinking and re-thinking my plans over and over. my best friend told me i should take the EPEC thing. but i need to get my TOR and diploma authenticated first. aargh! so many shit to do. but i really need to get started on these things. otherwise, i would most likely regret it in the future. my machine readable passport arrived exactly 7 days after my scheduled appearance. so i suppose, service wasn't so bad. then again, i did pay a lot of money for it. i don't like the ugly brown color. don't know why. *sigh* must make a

i had a bit of time so i took pictures of my teammates. i tried to edit the pictures but the font was a little too hard to read. i'm missing one pic (ja) because she already left for school during the photo op. so i grabbed a pic from her facebook account. enjoy! at Mcdonalds Paseo douglas kathy, glenn and irene we call him daddy glenn eric a.k.a. johnny bravo mike a.k.a. lastikman kathy a.k.a. buhok kitcat douglas & jhun irene jhun bo ganda PJ Ja

last saturday, i brought my camera to "school". here's a summary of what happened that day. Alliance Francaise de Manille douglas took this pic looking uneasy during our coffee break, douglas wanted something to eat. since our 13th month pay has not arrived yet, we went to a nearby turo-turo. he, however, settled for instant noodles we met his sister, sheila, at SM megamall she bought a new iPod touch (Php11,400 12mos installment at iStore Shangrila) after thinking about it for 3 minutes the iPod siblings

at my best friend's urging, i found myself renewing my passport for no reason at all. the possibility of me going abroad either for work or leisure seems to be a far fetched thing but i gave in after a detailed daydream sequence that involved hk disneyland and universal studios sentosa. damn. so i decided to try this new thing they call Philippine Passport Express. anyway, since i'm only renewing, not a lot of requirements were needed. in my case, just 3 new passport photos. i had them taken days before (and this was during a really stressful day that involved several clinics and a sonogram) which looked like i was dragged to hell (READ: haggard). FYI: you are not allowed to smile in your passport photo. and you should be wearing a collared shirt. the background is royal blue. and your hair should be tucked behind your ears so they would show in the picture. pretty interesting. i had my photo taken at Tronix megamall branch. they're really helpful by the way.

i hate it when i plan things and i never get to do them. i planned on purchasing a pair of chucks from the converse sale. i planned to do some grocery shopping. i planned to get some reading done as well. and i planned to watch a couple of movies. though i was able to see paper heart, i couldn't, for the love of everything that is good and pure, write a review. this is really frustrating. i am such a lazy cat. i blame the weather. the long overdue "ber" chill finally arrived about 2 weeks ago. it is now soooo much harder to get up and go to work (or basically do anything else), assuming that's even possible. i bought a few holiday gifts for myself last week. just some random little things. essentials like jeans and undergarments and a couple of cute tops. i am not much of a shopper. i finally realized that as a fact. i do not have the patience for it i suppose. or maybe because i hate shopping on a budget. it's always so much easier if you can just

hmm writer's block won't go away. here's a summary of my thoughts in bullet points. moooooooolah. i've been thinking how to make more money. can somebody tell me any work-at-home rakets ? hay pulubi mode. i wasn't able to do any of my errands during the weekend. i really need to re-prioritize. everything right now is just a blur. for some reason i've been collecting starbucks stickers. i'm down to my last 2 drinks. it's weird because i already have a planner . maybe this is also the reason why i'm sooo poor. head aches. stomach aches. wallet is empty. i need to watch paper heart tonight. this is on top of my to-do list. where can i find a cute day dress? sale sale sale converse sale doctor's appointment tomorrow laptop is dirty hair is a big ol' mess interesting would-be, maybe thing (yihi) OK i'm super lazy today. will organize thoughts.
