where to?

Feels like I’m going through my life with no definite idea of where I’m headed.

This is so unlike me…

cold and rainy day

6:50 AM - My 1st alarm goes off
Hmm… So cold… So dark… Is it really time to wake up?

7:00 AM – My 2nd alarm goes off
… alarms every 10 minutes
Just a few more minutes… Please…
At this point I decided to drop the 10 minutes I have to allot for doing my make up and just use it to get some more sleep.

7:40 AM – Time to get a hot shower
But it’s still so dark outside and it’s raining and it’s the best weather to just stay in bed and sleep...

8:15 AM – Doing my make up
Well, I don’t want to look like I just got out of bed.

8:25 AM – Still raining while I’m on my way to work
Why can’t this type of weather fall on a weekend??? Yawn…

9:20 AM – All set up and ready to work
Yey! The scripts I left ran successfully.
Work work work

11:35 AM – Writing this Blog
The script I triggered is still running and I think will still stay that way for another 3 hrs. Hmmm... What else do I need to do (instead of writing a blog)???



I know, quite uneventful… so far.

i love books!!!

Yes, I am one of those people who could spend all day reading a book. I am not a nerd (I admit, at some point in my life I was) but I just love to be engaged in a really good book. I’ve had my Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings (yes, I did manage to read through the old English language of the book) phases. My dream home includes a library (I would also settle for plenty of bookshelves) to house the books I bought and I intend to buy (and I have a few more on my mind). I am now on my 7th Jodi Picoult novel and I’m still enjoying her works.

I listed down a few of my favorite reads (highly recommended by me!)

A Million Little Pieces by James Frey
My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult
The 5 people you meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom
The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger
To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee (if you’re not fan of classic novels then you can pass on this one)

I still have 4 unread books on my shelf which I hope will last until I my next trip to Powerbooks (Manila). Books here in Singapore are more expensive, but good thing I still have my Border’s S$50 voucher, hmmm, makes me think of my next book to purchase. =)

P.S.
If you’re a book enthusiast, you may want to check out the Time Magazine’s All Time 100 Novels.

manic monday

Monday... The day I hated when I was still in school and dreaded when I started working - but this Monday is an exception. I'm not so sure why, but I guess having a good weekend rest and knowing I did a good job last week made me feel that this week will not be so bad (I'm beginning to be an optimist but I don't think it'll last very long).

But like all other workdays, I want today to end already... =)

weekend plans

I'm so glad it's finally Friday!!! I have to list down my itinerary for the weekend so I won't forget a thing and I can keep my mind away from things that are actually bothering me (sob... sob…)

11Jul08
Anne wants to go to Takashimaya (I have to go home early though)

12Jul08
Watch Hellboy 2 (Yey!!!!) in AMK with Bona and Anne
Buy a birthday gift for Cait
Caitlin's birthday celebration
Help Bona pack for Sunday

13Jul08
Drop off Bona at the Airport (I wanna go home too...)
Try to finish 'The Other Boleyn Girl' book
Attend mass

Hmmm.... maybe that'll keep me busy for a while... Gosh I miss my friends!

Something to look forward to: temporary assignment to another project! Goodbye (for now) project room… I’ll see you again 04Aug (hopefully) hehehe.

lunch at munch

“When you’re 24, innocence is not an excuse – it is called ignorance! Hahaha” (Yes, all 3 of us were laughing while she was saying that)

hopes and dreams

07Jul2008 10pm

I just don't want to forget that date and time and some important points of that night...

>nieces and nephews
>Tagaytay
>Makati
>2-4
>twins

There, I think that would be enough to keep that in my head, and oh yeah, 2010...

sigh....

postcards anyone?!!

Just got a dozen free postcards (and half of them with free postage)!!! Yay!!! After a few minutes of figuring out how I can discreetly obtain my friends' addresses, I ended up just asking them... so much for the surprise...

Friends, BF and Ex-GF

** a friend scrutinizing BF with ex-GF's photo **

SV: so...

Wen: so?

Wen: any thoughts?

SV: girlfriend niya yung naka-blue?

SV: ex-gf! sorry sorry

Wen: yep, pareho silang naka-blue

SV: ok, mas maganda ka sa ex niya ng 100000 times na paligo

SV: even kung wala kang makeup

Wen: hahaha... napako na yata ang smile sa face ko... hehehe

Wen: salamat ha...

SV: oo naman noh

** and that I say is a suuuuuper nice friend **

my very first blog

I've always wanted to sign up for a BlogSpot account but I've put it off several times because I thought “Who would be interested enough to read my blogs?" Probably someone, or maybe, no one. Nevertheless, here’s my attempt at writing bits and pieces of my life…
