Generous Me

I'm feeling generous to my best friends today... And the luckiest of them all (as of today) is Joyce payat (my mom calls her that and I have another friend my mom calls Joyce taba) :D 

If she doesn't show up in our doorsteps, it'll be forfeited! ;)

I miss my friends back home... Good thing I'll see them in less than 3 weeks...

pa-Asa

I wanted to post this a few days ago. But since it was nearing Christmas at that time, I decided to postpone it.
So, here it goes...

Pa-Asa ka na naman e!

There, I've said it.

Moving on...

Lazy Boxing Day

Home-baked cupcakes from Chuck :)

Just stayed home and watched Robert de Niro films - Analyze This, Analyze That and Taxi Driver... Got a bit inspired to do just that because we just watched an episode about him in Bio. He is really good looking, specially in The Godfather II ;)

Back to work tomorrow. The last week of 2010.

Grinched :(

Where are you Christmas
  Why can't I find you
  Why have you gone away

  My world is changing
  I'm rearranging
  Does that mean Christmas changes too

  Where are you Christmas
  Do you remember
  The girl you used to know

  You and I were so carefree
  Now nothing's easy
  Did Christmas change or just... me 

Just because I was 'Grinched'...

lighted gray

The lights are all bright now
Blinding me with their colors
Streets filled with cars and people
Rushing and pushing to make their way
Feeling the cold wind on my face
Wishing the world to stay still
Holding my breath and summon courage
As the sky changes once more to gray ...

Blog test!

Testing blogging via email. ;)

History, Discovery, Bio and Nat Geo

I used to watch these channels every weekend, but the past few months I've been watching too much movies and series on my laptop that I kinda forgot about our television. 

Yesterday I watched was the Bio of Benazir Bhutto which I recorded in our set up box (very useful feature). Her story was like that of the Aquino's but more tragic and chaotic because of the history of her country, Pakistan. I guess there are people like that, people who prioritize their country above everything else, even their family.  Today, we watched how the great city of Shanghai is getting a transformation with the construction of Shanghai Expo. We also watched the effects of a major volcano eruption and how deadly an encounter with a great white shark really is. Now I'm watching Commander in Chief: George Bush.

It's becoming an educational weekend for me... :)

My soulmate... for now (sequel)

It took me 2 years and 1 month (to be exact) to finally be with my soulmate... And I'm so glad I waited for this release...

I know I know, my post was almost 3 months delayed but I kinda was busy or, well, just lazy.

What do I like about it...
- I no longer need my iPod touch
- I can now listen to RX Morning Rush
- surfing the net and checking FB is so much easier
- chatting via YM is way easier
- haven't tried facetime yet but it's suppose to be cool
- instagr.am application makes picture taking so much fun
- the screen resolution is so much better than the 3gs

I guess there's a few more that I can still add to the list but I'll just leave it at that for now... I'd like to keep my relationship with my soulmate private. ;)






Lomo-fied

I am loving my new blog layout. :D The picture I used was taken while we were at Starbucks Holland V. I liked the sepia and lomo feel of the page...

I also discovered the beauty of lomo photography (did I get that right?) because of an application I downloaded on my phone. :D

My Office Desk

The first Christmas present I received

Bugis Christmas Tree (♪ no one to buy you, give yourself to me... hehehe)

 pseudo-chandelier from one of the shops at Haji Lane




What came first? The music or the misery?



I decided to watch High Fidelity after a comic strip I read a few days ago (can't find it anymore though) referenced John Cusack on that movie.  Didn't have high expectations as I didn't liked the book that much, got quite bored with it actually. But, I find the movie entertaining, quite opposite of the book, and it might just be on my Top 5 feel good/light movies. :)

♪ Who died and made you King... of anything??? ♪

It's a Wednesday and I'm home, sick (just a bit) and this video/song made me smile. :)
