One Fine Day-Off



Me and Tata woke up around 10 in the morning, before I even got into the kitchen to prepare something, she already steamed rice and cooked sweet ham. How sweet? Sticky rice, sweet ham, fried eggs and iced cold lemon juice for breakfast, perfect!

We were too bored and decided to go to Marina Mall for what else, shopping spree. Honestly I'm trying to avoid going there because I almost finished my financial responsibilities for my credit cards and for my family, MAFI FULUS for my LV huhuhu. So eventhough I still have credit notes for Uncle Louis, I settled again for a cheaper thrill but worth it, ZARA.

We stayed for almost 1 hour or so at Louis Vuitton, greeted by our friend SA Ahlan and my good friend, Store Manager, Ronnie. I was weighing my resources if I'll go with my long crush Tadao or the Naviglio, or even the wallet cum organizer but Ronnie said too much girlie, ha ha ha! Ahlan presented as the Odeon and at first Tata said it will fit me but I'm not sure, so I convinced Tata to buy the Odeon instead of the Galliera since she is looking for another travel companion.

The sale was settled and Mabrook to Tata and her new ODEON.

We then went to ZARA and Forever 21 for some look and after 30 minutes, paper bags for us. Ahlan and ourselves had some snack and Sbarro and Burger King and he decided to drop us home.

Another fruitful yet expensive day for Tata, but like what they said, "It's not to bad to pamper yourself, once or twice... Ha Ha Ha"

Me, I will wait for a few more bucks...

The Sun Shines...

After almost a year of just staying home and occasionally going out with friends, I have spent the night, out of my crib and into Tata's flat at Hyundai with her and Bradford. Time to move forward right?

So much of Edith Piaf, Regine V. and Nina's  heartbreaking songs... I had enough gurls! So last night, I had a blast of "pork ribs, Bicol Express, Laing and Sour soup or Sinigang" and later that night while watching Zohan for the nth time, Tata felt the urge of something hot, sticky and meaty...PIZZA time! So we availed of the EY entertainer, buy one take one, pan pizza. The deliver boy came in a car..not..delivery bike okay...And it's indeed hot.

This is the time to spend quality time with my family, my friends and the most important omnipotent being in the universe, God. For me, he is the most ignored being in the universe yet he never leave us.

My song thoughts for today? : Is my favorite song...

" SOMEWHERE DOWN THE ROAD "

Filipino Films At It's Finest? Bwahahaha!

I just woke up this morning, haggard and still thirsty for more sleep. But as I checked new post, I need to share with you a funny antics on how to know if you are watching Filipino films. I laughed my heart out on this, truly a reflection of how Filipino Films are made and till now it haven't changed except for few talented scriptwriters and directors that were trying hard to upgrade the quality of our films. This is a repost from Adrian.


1. Pag nasa beach yung scene, sasayaw ang cast sa likod ng puno ng buko at alternate pa yung mga ulo nila.



2. Yung kontrabida na kunyaring friend yayakap sa bida, sabay taas ng kilay at ngingisi.



3. Ang pancit, nagdadala ng malas. Uuwi ang bida na may dalang pancit para sa kanyang nanay na palaging si Anita Linda. Tatawagin nito ang mga bata para kumain, at kakamustahin ng bida ang pag-aaral habang kumakain ng pancit. Biglang may titigil na sasakyan sa harap ng bahay at pauulanan ng baril ang pamilya! Mamamatay si Anita Linda, at sisigaw ang bida ng "Inaaay!" at mangangakong ipaghihiganti ito. Moral of the story:

Ang pancit, nakakamatay.

4. Pag may magkaribal na babae, yung mabait diretcho ang buhok at may bangs.

Yung salbahe, laging kulot.

5. Sa pinoy action movies, ang bida hindi nauubusan ng bala.

6. Sa pinoy action movies, kapag tumakbo ang bida at binabaril ng kalaban, sa lupa lahat ang tama ng bala ng kalaban.

7. Kapag may angry mob na pupunta sa bahaykubo ng manananggal, si Vangie Labalan lagi ang leader.

8. Alam mong moment of truth na ng bida kapag sinabi na niya yung title ng pelikula.

9. Ang tawag ng kontrabida sa mga goons niya, "Mga bata."

10. Yung nakababatang kapatid ng bida habang naglalaro ng bola, mabibitawan at mapupunta sa gitna ng kalsada. Tapos may darating na sasakyan, tapos itutulak siya ng bida. Yung bida naman ang nasa gita ng kalsada habang padating pa rin yung sasakyan. Ang bida, ico-cross lang ang arms niya to cover his face tapos sisigaw yung kapatd ng 'kuyaaa!'.

Next scene nasa ospital na sila. Simula na ng drama.

11. Kapag bakbakan, hindi nasasaktan ang bida, pero umaaray siya pag ginagamot na siya ng leading lady, at kasunod na ang love scene.

12. Kapag may sinabi ng kontrabida ang masama niyang plano sa bida, ang sasabihin lagi ng bida: "hayop ka!"

13. Ang bidang babae, pag katulong ang role, siguradong madi-discover na anak pala ng amo niya sa ending.

14. Ang nanay ng mayaman, laging may pamaypay na pangmayaman, at ang nanay ng mahirap naman laging naka duster.

15. Ang hideout ng kontrabida, parating mansion na may chicks sa pool.

16. Ang mga bida sa drama, pag nakatanggap ng masamang balita, laging may pinto sa likod nila para puwede silang sumandal habang nagsa-slide dahan-dahan, tapos todo iyak with matching uhog.

17. Pag di nahuli ng mga goons ang bida, sasabihin ng boss sa kanila, "Mga inutil!"

18. Laging nakakapulot ng baril na may bala ang bida kapag kinakailangan niya.

19. Laging mas maganda ang yayang bida kesa sa kontrabidang anak ng amo niya.

20. Pag ang ending ng movie ay song and dance number sa beach o resort, ang huling frame, tatalon ang buong cast...sabay freeze! (Winner)

Airport Standby

Whew. For 4 consecutive days now, I'm rostered for a night flight and early morning arrivals. Just yesterday they changed my AVL to ASBY. The funny thing is, it's from 12 midnight until 4 in the morning... Wow, what to do but be thankful that we have a job right?

Well, since its still packed here in the cafeteria, I'm using my tiny handheld mobile to update what's happening.

I'm worried that for 4 grueling hours, I might gain extra pound to shed. I started with a tuna sandwich, bottle of mineral water and a kitkat for a break, ha ha ha. And it's only half an hour... I'm just glad i have my Green Tea HP to back me up! (wink)

So as I patiently wait for my duty I am just looking around, saw old Friends, chit-chat and more...recover and move on. Ha Ha Ha

Are You Hooked Already?



From Tamagochi To Pet Society, latest craze of virtual pets that took loners and couch potatoes by storm. I was hooked by these two fads in the late 90's and 2008. Tamagochi and the Pet Society has the same purpose...


*** To be a virtual friend and companion

*** To feed them with food or snack

*** Playing games

*** Cleaning and bathing

*** Cuddling and loving

*** Connecting and visiting friends


History of these virtual pets...


The Tamagotchi (たまごっち) is a handheld digital pet created in 1996 by Aki Maita and sold by Bandai. Over 70 million Tamagotchis have been sold as of 2008.[1] The Tamagotchi is housed in a small and simple egg-shaped computer.  And now, Tamagochi has been reinvented by colored LCD monitors and more.


The Pet Society  is a Playfish London studio production that lets you create your own pet and interact with your friends via Playfish website or Facebook whether your in the airport waiting for your flight or just sitting at home.


The metamorphosis of these two virtual pets came along way, certainly you will not bring a live cat, dog or rabbit in your bag and do these messy stuff for it to be happy and to survive right? Now portability and virtuality came to reality.


Are you hooked already...I am... and I called my pet... Megawati...

Too Much Of You...Toni B.



I hate listening to too much love songs... It makes me cry... Well, what the heck... Just cry & if I cry, I will cry a lot. I am not keen blogging my other side because it's already complicated that there are lots of things better to blog than me...

My current status... I am coping... For what... For many things... That's how far I'm going to say. He He He... Thanks to your song Toni B.

I am coping, I am moving on, I will be okay...


.....



Don't leave me in all this pain
Don't leave me out in the rain
Come back and bring back my smile
Come and take these tears away
I need your arms to hold me now
The night are so unkind
Bring back those nights when I held you beside me

Un-break my heart
Say you'll me again
Undo this hurt you caused
When you walked out the door
And walked out of my life
Un-cry these tears
I cried so many nights
Un-break my heart
My heart

Take back that sad word good-bye
Bring back the joy to my life
Don't leave me here with these tears
Come and kiss that pain away
I can't forget the day you left
Time is so unkind
And life is so cruel without you here beside me

Un-break my heart
Say you'll love me again
Undo this hurt you caused
When you walked out the door
And walked out of my life
Un-cry these tears
I cried so many nights
Un-break my heart
My heart

Don't leave me in all this pain
Don't leave me out in the rain
Bring back the nights when I held you beside me

Un-break my heart
Say you'll love me again
Undo this hurt you caused
When you walked out the door
And walked out of my life
Un-cry that tears
I cried so many, many nights
Un-break my

Un-break my heart
Come back and say you love me
Un-break my heart
Sweet darlin'
Without you I just can't go on
Can't go on....
