there's gotta be more to life than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me



If you can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen.

Nokia - connecting people



Pop's homesick. I can feel it through his text messages. [or through paternal connection? haha!]

Well, he hasn't been away from home for a long time. He's in Batangas now coz that's where his work took him. He's been going there for the past three weeks and he only gets home on weekends. It must be sooo hard for him not to see us, especially Pangee. I used to be such a daddy's girl. I still am sometimes. Baby sis has been apple of Pop's eyes ever since I acted was too matured to make lambing to him anymore. But, heck, thank God for texting!

Remember that ad where this rocker chick texted her parents after dropping her off at school? I can so relate to that. I can't say how I feel to Mum's and Pop's faces but I can on text. I dunno. We're not an affectionate family.

So anyway, I remember just recently, I went on a date to Antipolo. It was one of those impromptu let's-go-to-cloud-nine dates. I had to text Pop that I'll be home late [early in the morning?]. I went "Hey Pop, don't stay up for me anymore. I'm on a date at Cloud Nine in Antipolo. I'm so happy coz I really like this guy. Hope you understand. Mwah!" and Pop goes "Ok. Make sure to let us meet him soon. Ingatz." I would never have had that conversation with him in person! I have never told him I'm going to or already in a date. When Astro and I were going out, I'd tell them we're going out but I never actually used the word date. I find it more... revealing, I guess. Much more talking about a guy I like. Duh! Too bad he'll never get to meet that guy I liked.

Climbing...



I'm going to my very first business cocktail tomorrow! Not only that, I'll be with someone who can potentially convince me that there is a REAL MAN out there. The Boss??? Huwaaat?! C'mon now... Ewww. It's the architect who will design our upcoming executive office. He's extremely cute! As in, Boy-Next-Door cute. He's very articulate which is the first thing that make me notice a guy. What will I wear? What will I wear? Hahaha... my vanity will soon kill me.

Dedications



Whenever you're sad
Whenever you're crying
I'll be the one who wipes away your tears
Whenever you call
Whenever you need me
I'll be the one who runs to you
Giving my love
Well you know how much I love you
So you better not let me down
I'm not asking for too much baby just stick around


Sino kayang kumakanta lagi nito sa 'kin? Hmmm... ang sweet mo naman. Eto'ng sa yo:

Fuck what I said it don't mean shit now
Fuck the presents might as well throw 'em out
Fuck all those kisses, it didn't mean jack
Fuck you, you scrub, I don't want you back


Ironic. He introduced this song to me the first time I got into his car. Right back at ya.

♥Hey Chevy, thanks! You rock, girl! We rule! Ain't no man boy is gonna make us pull each other's hair. Cheers!Ü

Friend Test



Dammit! I took Loiza's friend test and I merely answered 5 out 10 questions correctly! How weird is that!? The girl whose umbilical cord is practically connected with mine is not who I think she is. Hahaha! You bitch.

Hmmm... I'll make one myself. Let's see how you do. :p

Bitches Rule!!!





Another episode of Sex and the City was shot at Starbucks ATC [with the special participation of Marnie, the man whose favorite color is purple. Go figure!Ü]. Man! I love my bitches Loiza and Julie. Hahaha! Though Julie's a chaste bitch.Ü Moi being Carrie, Loiza being Samantha and Julie being Charlotte. Marnie can fill in to be Miranda. Lolz.

Babe
In
Total
Control of
Herself


Resolution for the day: NO MORE RASPBERRY FRAPPES FOR ME. THANKS.

Just Walk Away



But then, how do you walk away from something you were never in?
Hmmm... *thoughfully scratching chin*

to be continued...

Boys!



My love life has so far involved boys.

Sweet, naive, frosted, boys.


Boys in discussion can range from ages 18 to 26. Sheesh.. where have all the real men gone?
Kaching! Does this mean 26+ men stand a chance? Nah-uh! Elk! They smell bad awready. Hahaha!

Mean. Mean. Mean.

meaness is my body's form of reflex to insult


Whapakkk! I need serious spanking. But, what do you think do they call me a bitch for?

First Aid



What to do when he turns off the lights? You cry. Nothing to do but cry. Then, you call up the next best prospect and let him soothe your deflated ego broken heart. DISREGARD THIS ADVICE. THAT IS, UNLESS YOU WANT TO SHARE MY ECCENTRICITY.

Nothing can cause a girl much pain than a news blackout from someone she never expected is capable of doing so. He was perfect, almost THE ONE. Then, he screws everything up. You call it quits. Had I been less wiser, I'd have decided otherwise, giving him us infinite another chances. Or maybe, he can still convince me to. Maybe. Let's wait for him to turn the lights back on first.

--------------------------

I'd rather you be mean,
Than love and lie,
I'd rather hear the truth,
And have to say goodbye,
I'd rather take a blow,
At least then I would know,
But baby, don't you break my heart slow.

Failing Instincts



Had a smashing time at Temple in Greenbelt last night with Bossing Vic and mah bebe Belle. Vic treated us out after the success the long-awaited and [meticulously planned] press conference turned out to be. Phew! The rewards of our hard-work and overtimes are countless.The highlight of the night perhaps was how I ended up with... ahem, a couple. Not just any couple, but a 3rd sex couple [which we will refer to as 3SX].

We were on the 2nd level and Belle and I were checking the slammin' crowd below. We spotted our preys almost at the same time which happened to be the 3SX. Of course, we hadn't the slightest idea they were like so then. To make the story short, I made my move, got to know the guys gays and was aghast. But it was all good coz they are cool. Smart. Heck, that's what I love about Greenbelt. It's like there's a sign that says no jologs allowed, which is a surprise why they let me in to the place. Lolz. Sad thing is, I should've known better. I should've seen it! Sheesh, my man-radar is getting rusty.

Chasing Subtitles



Nico made me watch this Thai film Ong Bak last Thursday. [yah, as in made coz I never was a fan of violence] Guessed it right, it's an action-comedy whose fight scenes involve Thai boxing which apparently focuses on making use of the knees and elbows as weapons. Really bloody but amusing nonetheless coz the humor is intelligible but not shallow. Ong Bak is the name of the town's Buddha and its loss brought severe drought. It was stolen and the hero's task was to look for it in the city and bring it back. Just watch, awright? I'm glad I did.

Newly Baptized



Changed my friendster name to Niña. Why? It's for me to know and you to find out. Hahaha!

It caused quite a stir, I must say. No big deal, really.

Geez...



My tummy hurts. It's my body's weird way of having a hang-over. hehehe. No sensible post for today. Laziness for blogging is contagious. I got mine from the dude. hey ya louis!Ü

How I Feel



Love is tragic
Love is bold
You will always do what you are told
Love is hard
Love is strong
You will never say that you were wrong
I don't know when I got bitter
But love is surely better when it's gone

'Cause you wanted more
More than I could give
More than I could handle
In a life that I can't live
You wanted more
More than I could bear
More than I could offer
For a love that isn't there

Love is color
Love is loud
Love is never saying you're too proud
Love is trusting
Love is honest
Love is not a hand to hold you down
I don't know when I got bitter
But love is surely better when it's gone

'Cause you wanted more
More than I could give
More than I could handle
In a life that I can't live
You wanted more
More than I could bear
More than I could offer
For a love that isn't there

I got to pick me up when I am down
I got to get my feet back on the ground
I got to pick me up when I am done

I dont know when I got bitter
But love is surely better when it's gone
I don't know when I got bitter
But love is surely better when it's gone
'Cause you wanted more
More than I could give
More than I could handle
In a life that I can't live
You wanted more
More than I could bear
More than I could offer
For a love that isn't there

You wanted more
More than I could love
More than I could offer
The harder you would shove
You wanted more
More than I could give
More than I could handle
In a life that I can't live

Crashed and Burned



This day has been a roller coaster of emotions. For no particular reason. No concrete explanation. Can't possibly be my hormones. This isn't my time of the month. Must be me again. Just being me. Weird me. Weeeerd as Dee-Dee puts it.

Happy. Sad. Elated. Lonely. Though not alone. Heck, the office was busy by midday. Tired. First time in my four weeks at work. Excited. Laugh trip. Annoyed. Some people can be so self-absorbed. I'd rather talk about my friends all the time. Forget the word me in social conversations. Caffeinated. DJ Myx Lemoned. Mellowed down. Irritated. Frustrated. Bitchy. I wasn't able to restrain giving the two guys at Metro Point the spirit finger when they "threw me compliments". Oh, my perfectly manicured nails and meticulously lotioned hand. Blogged.

I can have a good night's sleep now. Thanks.
_____________________________
Must be the shoes. Blame it on the new mules. I'm going back to my beaten-up stilletos tomorrow. Or maybe I just desperately need to go dancing. Ipanema, here I come. I will not let this weekend pass without giving you a visit. I shall not. Oh goody! Thursday's payday.

Blood, Sweat and Tears



No. My first paycheck wasn't worth these. My smile [sige na nga, and my tits wits] did the trick. Hihihi.

Wondering where my first paycheck went to? Try being texted right after cashing in your check by a dear friend I haven't heard from for over a year. Then, meeting up and having frappes with her at Starbucks Shang and then getting on and off a hundred cabs scouting for a cool place to whine wine and catch up. Finally, settling for Temple in Greenbelt. Then, having coffee [again!]. The catch: feeling all generous and grateful at the same time, you offered to pay for E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G.

I was happy, though. No regrets. A paycheck spent for a loved one is a paycheck well spent .

Gave the rest to mum. Aaaawww...

Swallowing my Words



Could there possibly be anyone more pathetic than me? I find myself

falling

falling

falling

*thud*



in love.


With no apparent grounds. I should go see a psychiatrist. Or a cardiologist. If it's true that hearts get bruised.

Lighten Up!



I posted my banner just for laughs. I don't believe in it myself. Hihihi. Just adding some humor to my rather dark weblog. Glad y'all liked it.Ü

Smooching Business



Is it me or is every couple in Friendster posting pictures of their liplocking?!

Kainggit!


My kissers have been on vacation for a while now. Heck, I'm not even sure I still remember the mechanics of a kiss.

Lips tight - press against his - more pressure - open slightly - ...

I need someone to refresh my memory, man!

And then, I announce that I'm a bitch. with class.

I'm in ♥!!!



With the city, that is.Ü

Who needs a boyfriend when the city would never break your heart? Be it Manila, Pasay, Makati, Mandaluyong and of course, my first boyfriend, Las Piñas, you'll never be lonely even if you are alone.


alonelonely





Moonlight Man tells me New York is much like Makati. Hmmm... Should my dreams of being an NY chick not materialize, I'd still die happy. ;) Speaking of which, my dates with Moonlight Man merely involves chatting in Y! on my nights when I'm not too tired from work and the travel, and on his mornings when he gets to wake up early and he doesn't have to run an errand. It's good enough for me.Ü



The smile on my face...



... is because of ...

Ha! I'm not saying. Neither is he. she. it. they.

Fact is, I am smiling more often now. A little too often.

I find myself smiling...

...while waiting for the fax tone.
...while put on hold.
...while rummaging through folders and folders of files.
...while waiting in line at the MRT.
...while in the elevator.
...while waiting for my frappe.
...while liquidating the petty cash.
...basically, all the time!!!


WTF?!



I don't believe it. I really am popular.was, floi. WAS.
I never considered myself popular. It's like telling a sidewalk beggar he was born with Ayala blood.

I can't deny I had the best times back in high school, though. Well, I got invited to this "Popular Josephians Only" group in Friendster. Nice! Thanks for the invite whoever you are.

Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

Chi is right! I do have a stalker. Psycho, man! He hacked my friendster account [I dunno how] and damn, deleted His testimonial for me. HE i.e. astro. He even deleted Him from my friend list! Scary talaga! To think I met up with him a few hours ago. He confessed.

Grabe na 'to!!! Sayang! He looks like Miko Palanca. And really good fingers [in playing the guitars]. Who wouldn't feel all pretty when a guy meets up with her and plays the guitar for her right in the heart of Robinson's Galleria?!

Sayang talaga!

Bonded



I went to 65B [a bar in Shaw Blvd exclusive for Betans] by myself and I had a really great time!. Too bad putcha_gwapo_sya was in Mindoro.

Anyweiz, I got to meet some sisses and brods from other chapters. Galeng talaga! It was like we've known one another forever!!!

I'm definitely going back there soon.

Sigma Beta Alumnae Association is sponsoring a badminton cup tomorrow at Shuttle's Best. Still considering if I'm going. But, I'd love to!!!

Will anyone disagree if and when someone described me as "petite,sexy(very sexy that is),deep brown eyes,soft hair,fair,"SHE'S NOT SIMPLE"('cause she's very interesting),she's wonderful,& her beauty is breathtaking."?

I'm at a dilemma here. Someone please back this up.

Palabras Finales

Remember me when you hear this

sleeps with butterflies ~ tori amos



Airplanes take you away again
Are you flying
Above where we live?
Then I look up a glare in my eyes
Are you having regrets about last night?
I'm not but I like rivers that rush in
So then I dove in
Is there trouble ahead
For you the acrobat?
I won't push you unless you have a net


You say the word
You know I will find you
Or if you need some time
I don't mind
I don't hold on
To the tail of your kite
I'm not like the girls that you've known
But I believe I'm worth coming home to
Kiss away night
This girl only sleeps with butterflies
With butterflies
So go on and fly then boy


Balloons
Look good from on the ground
I fear with pins and needles around
We may fall then stumble
Upon a carousel
It could take us anywhere

You say the word
You know I will find you
Or if you need some time
I don't mind
I don't hold on
To the tail of your kite
I'm not like the girls that you've known
But I believe I'm worth coming home to
Kiss away night
This girl, this girl

You say the word
You know I will find you
Or if you need some time
I don't mind
I don't hold on
To the tail of your kite
I'm not like the girls that you've known
But I believe I'm worth coming home to
Kiss away night
This girl only sleeps with butterflies
With butterflies
With butterflies
So go on and fly boy
