laff out loud

Yesterday i saw (well i thought i saw) that someone who i'll not mention for now but whom i prefer not to meet. But when i looked again, (thank goodness he was someone else!) he looked like an olden version and i just bursted out laughing out loud coz before i thought him cute and all. But now seeing his grayed version, i'll happily hand him to his unlucky partner ^(",)^ evil smiley... The best way to forget/hate/abhorrrrrr someone??? Imagine what they'll look like when they're gray and old and all wrinkly.... a sharpei's far too cuter though... =D

reviewing my childish years

I wasn't feeling all that good today... Specially my throbbing head and I still can't think of a darned design.. hehee... so I resorted to reading past slum books and diaries.. and found out... and found out...
1. that I was really trying to sound grown up all that time... and its just sooooo.... (can't find the word) (^^) imagine me using the word "angered". i.e. I was angered this morning because of my bro....
2. that high school slumbooks are plain boring.... almost 90% of the dedication page starts with "Thank you for the space..." wla tlga sila masabi kaya nagthathank you sila sa space... that was pretty hilarious!! (",)
3. so the same way how students copy and paste their answers in testpapers, they also do that in slumbooks!! Most of their favorite Bible verses were: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart..." coz we studied in a Christian school... hehehe!! Same goes for the motto and for some dedications..

So that's what my childish years' worries were all about... so simple yet so profound, coz lots of hours could just be spent scribbling in those papers (simple joys). Ohhh myyyyy.... (@.@)

Disney's High School Musical

This is one feel good movie. One can't help but sing along with the kids here... Specially loved Gabriella's voice!! Not only have i spent sleepless nights downloading the songs with my crappy phone line connection, I just found out the next day that my officemate's kid has a cd of it!! waaa!! weeelll... at least i can listen it to it to my heart's content coz its in my trusty fone now!! yehey!!! ^^ "We're soarin!!! Flyin!!!"

Inner Peace

For the past three or four days, questions inside me that were settled before once again resurfaced, and the nagging feeling inside me that I tamed before seem to rebel again, now with more urgency. Reading previous self help books didn't help me from further being depressed about life. Maybe its just the mood swings, or maybe my visitor is knocking at my door already... Fortunately this morning, I felt settled within me and answers I had gathered before seemed good enough for the time being.. Hopefully those answers will serve their purpose longer before i get hit with another wave of depressing issues... heeeheee... One thing's for sure, and that's the past, coz its unchangeable, if God has managed to be faithful before, that's the only pillar i can lean on right now, coz the future is unknown, thus i have the present and that's the only time I have control over my life with... I really need a vacation.. haha.

Another interesting issue to note: Swiss marriages are becoming a phenomenon in Bolinao, Pangasinan. And here i thought its that difficult to find a suitable mate! But in the town, daughters of peasant families are being introduced to Swiss men and get to live in Switzerland. They in turn strive for money and provide livelihood for their waiting families here in the Philippines. Now i cannot say for sure if their lives there are just like domestic helpers/sex objects or really loved wives. We cannot say for sure for our destiny is always like a blur.

cosmic play

There had been times when I think that the universe is playing a big game with me. In the span of a short while, I've been presented with great opportunities, great people, wonderful ones. But here's the catch: I cannot stretch out my hand and grab hold of anything at all. If I do, I know the consequences and it will be worse than when I first started. I guess that's life. One has to live with it. Beautiful things are a sight to see and behold, not to get and play with. You are allowed to see it from a distance, disect it, marvel, scrutinize it, investigate it like a precious china. But that's that. No crossing of the yellow line...

the pig unleashed... erm... happy 30th!!!

I'm just sipping my uber bitter Abs bitter tea after our pigging out round from spirals. Unfortunately for those reading this post (and who've i've promised pictures...) there are no pictures of food within this blog, coz looks like people are quite famished and ohhh!! there's no time to take pictures!! (quite the classic excuse) hehehe!! i wasn't able to keep this surprise a secret from my parents for fear that they wouldn't be able to come tonight with us.. yessss.... i'm not tactful enough to invent excuses.. (coz i was a good girl before.. even upto now not to make up my own excuse letters) hahaha!! Before i go into the juicy details of the food... lemme first thank my card sponsors..

Shirley and her hubby Michael, for generously lending me their card and slashing the bill to almost a half!! Yey!! you guys are my heroes!!


and secondly, to Cherryl, for her artistic flair and imagination... thanks so much sis for accomodating my request despite your demanding schedule.. (^^,)

To my mom and dad... Happy Happy 30th!! its been through heaven and hell knowing you guys and for being there for us!! Love ya both!!

Now to the nitty gritty yummy details... Spirals i think is the yummy extension or pattern of Circles, wherein each continent gets to present their best dishes... They've got japanese, korean, chinese, italian, indian, french, and filipino dishes, all spiraled out in the center. I started off with the usual salmon and gradually worked my way to lobsters, tempura's, mussels (yum yum!), naan bread, octopus (too chewy for me), goat's cheese, french cheese, eels and a whole lot more!! And to think that wasn't enough, I just had to try their dessert bar which was really fantastic!! I had to feel less sinful by burying myself with no-sugared mixed berry ice cream and the vanilla choco, the healthy non-sugared tiramisu (2cups of those please!!) and vanilla pudding... ohhh.. heaven!!

Now back to sipping my bitter herb.... ^^

mind over heart matters??

Have (finally!! had the guts enough) to have talked to someone yesternight. Although it lasted until pastmidnight, it was a refreshing view towards life. The speaker insisted that once one gets older, a better half ought to be sought. But is it always the answer to life's mind boggling situation of a soul's longin search for a companion? i presented my views on the bad side of married life and it was all dismissed as a childish thoughts. Part of me (is very tempted, and still wanting to) accept the offer, part of me didn't. Common sense taught me to stick to the former decision coz in doing so, it will save me from heartaches, backaches, migranes and flu!! hehehe.. just kidding.. Hopefully something good will come out of this. ^^;

Its a Bird! Its a Plane!! Its....

Then Clark enters... "You called Chief?"

one of the cliche' lines i found while watching "Superman Returns"


Yipee!! Its my first time to watch Superman Returns in the
Director's Club! Luckily we didn't have to line up a long queue coz we're scheduled at the graveyard hours... 11pm to 1:45am!! whoa! talk about diehard Superman fans!!


Ok ok, am not much of a Brandon fan but i took a picture with him anyway, since lots of girls are supposed to be drooling over him.. hehhee!! For one thing, he lacks muscles (6 packs) in his suit.. hahah!! (That's so low of me...) Personally I like the looks of the guy who played Richard more.. but for a beginner... i think he does ok..


Owkhay.. while waiting outside the moviehouse.. i found this signboard just outside.. and it really cracked me up.. they really Specified what food you're not allowed to bring... soo... steak with soysauce is allowed then? ^^


Inspite of disappointments coz what i really wanted to have was the IMAX experience, one can't cry over spilled milk for too long.. for a price of P350 (its worth it if you paid for the Lazy boy with leg stretch(real comfy sofa that almost lulled me to sleep) and ... and.. and...


oh yeah!! only 30 ppl sitting capacity.. and... and.. and.. eeeep!! can't think of anything else coz the unlimited popcorn is too bland for my taste and the Royal/Sprite complimentary drinks have also lost its zesty taste.)

Overall, the movie for me should be rated "a feel good" movie. It tells of the story after S guy disappears for a long time and suddenly returned, what happened to his love life, his career, his morales, his family, his hometown, his arch enemy Lex, and a little twist and a surprise.. ^^ It pales in comparison with LOTR but that's for the effects and stuff.. Kate Bosworth (Lois Lane) was a real eye candy and i think she's too fresh for Superman (who's sooooo serious... ) Lex adds spice to the otherwise too serious movie of the two lovey doveys.. hehehe!!

Crack me up Scenes (better watch out for those)
a. perfect contact lens advertisement: the bank robbery scene where superman gets shot in the eyes
b. Lex Luther (by Kevin Spacey) was kinda gay all throughout the show... Specially loved the times he emphasized "Kreeep-to-naaayyyttt" in a singsong voice!! hehehehe!!
c. You see the pom eating something after Lex and the gang went back to Lex's old house - Did the pom ate his better half?!?!? whoa!! (I miss Charlie baby...)
d. Lex is right. Superman doesn't pay attention to the little details (he doesn't attend court hearing.. hahahha!!) a classic one!! ^^
