Sunday, March 29th, 2009

My cousin, Ianne Nicole, had her 7th birthday party at Jollibee Luneta Park. She was asked to choose between a trip to Bangkok or a birthday party. She chose the latter so she can celebrate her 7th year here on earth with her friends and numerous cousins.

It was a lot of fun, especially for Hazel. The theme of the party was the Bratz dolls. And my aunt and her husband got 5 Jollibee mascots to make an appearance: Jollibee, Hetty, Twirlie, Poppo and Yum.

Golf enthusiasts

Sunday, March 29th, 2009

I worked for a call center company before. The company had two changes in the highest position. Both expats are golf enthusiasts. Since I worked closely with both expats, it is but natural that I got to know more about golf.

I think this is a sport enjoyed by executives. I even had bosses before who are golf players. I remember a company director who once told us that the way to enjoy life is for someone to work a couple of hours and to take a break to enjoy the day by playing golf. I didn’t think it was a really good advice but it stuck to me because I’m seeing a lot of executives do that.

If you are a golf enthusiasts like my past bosses, this Golf shop is for you. Go to GolfAkademie-GMBH.de now. This company is the biggest German golf shop that offers brand names in the world of golf.

It is really great that I found a web site like this because an uncle is thinking of celebrating his 50th birthday with his close buddies. And you guess it right! Playing golf! He’s thinking of bringing six of his closest friends to a golf resort. I think he saw one while surfing the net and he asked around about it. Turned out the resort has a good reputation among golfers because of the expanse of golf courses they have in it. But he’s still checking out some things…

This Golfshop also offers news holidays and all other information on golf. Looking for Golf Mode? You can find it here! I even found out that if a golfer is thinking of a holiday with his buddies like my uncle, this web site has enough information regarding it.

So if you are a golf enthusiasts, visit GolfAkademie-GMBH.de now for more information.

During Earth Hour…

Sunday, March 29th, 2009

It was really inspiring to see so many people and establishments participated in last night’s Earth Hour. I was at the mall that time, checking if I can squeeze in a facial after watching a movie. My friend was checking out treatments for acne while I was still talking to the people behind the salon to, maybe, squeeze me in even for a foot spa. Unfortunately, since it’s almost closing time for some establishments, I was not accommodated anymore. Oh well, some other time. We just enjoyed the candle-lit coffee break my friend and I had instead.

Random facts for today

Saturday, March 28th, 2009

Ang bilis ko talaga magsawa sa mga blog themes ko. As in! Pero as I’ve promised myself when I had this blog’s theme customized, I won’t be changing until it reaches a year. I will stick to it. If I can hehe

***

Will you or won’t you: bunjee jump? Yes! If I don’t die from fear first hehe… ride in a hot air balloon? Absolutely! Been wanting to do this talaga but the price is not worth it… go white water rafting? Would love to!

I have never been an adventurous person. Pasumpung-sumpong lang. Like that one time I went to Batangas City all by myself. I don’t do that stuff normally. Di bale if I was able to go there before na. But for me to go to a place all alone for the first time, that’s adventure for me already. I always play it safe. I always keep in mind that I am the eldest and that my family’s relying on me. I shouldn’t put myself in too much risk.

Or maybe I’m just pretty scared talaga ha-ha!

***

What colour are your toenails painted? Plum. It looks black from afar but when you look at it, it’s really plum. It will change tomorrow or by Sunday when I go for a foot spa.

I don’t paint my fingernails, or even grow it long. I am not comfortable with it.

***

It’s Earth Hour tonight at 8:30 PM to 9:30 PM here in the Philippines. Turn off your lights even for that hour and let us do our share in preserving the planet we live in.

Happy weekend everyone!

Late night dinner tomorrow

Friday, March 27th, 2009

I will be meeting up with two of my best girl friends tomorrow for a late night dinner. We see each other regularly. But it’s been a while that we had dinner together. I am sure that it will be loaded with whatever’s happening around, in our lives as well as to the people we know.

When the three of us are together, don’t expect to understand what we’re talking about. It jumps from one topic to another. If you hear us talking about our salaries and at the same breath you heard something about the peace process, don’t be surprised. It’s not related but are actually two topics that we can mold together to form one. Credit card deals to the latest dance craze to hit the metro. The latest fashion to a common friend we haven’t heard from in a while. That’s how we talk. Probably born out of the years we’ve been friends. Since second year high school. 17 years and counting.

I will tell you more about our late night dinner by Sunday. Remember, it’s Earth Hour tomorrow. If you can, participate :) It won’t do you harm. In fact, it will give you the opportunity to help our planet.

Happy weekend!

I'm back!

Wednesday, March 25th, 2009

I haven’t updated here in more than a week. That’s the longest time this blog has gone without any updates :D
Anyway, I am finally free of the flu and cough virus my sister “gave” me. Almost. I have never drank so much water in my whole life. I think I drank gallons for the past week alone. It really does wonder to your body. Kaya lang it also felt like I was having withdrawal symptoms. I felt weak and less alert than usual. Always sleepy. More than the usual. Kasi naman I am a coffee-drinker talaga. Plus, I love drinking flavored drinks. When I caught the flu (with matching cough on the side), I thought of giving up my flavored drinks and anything with caffeine in it for a while. I didn’t want to catch a cold as well. Baka magka-sore throat pa!

I mostly slept early for a week. I refrained from reading to rest my eyes, too. I wasn’t able to update even my other blogs because even though I have so many things to write about, I couldn’t string two words to save my life. Ngayon, back to normal na uli ang utak ko :)
Back to… happy blogging!

Today…

Monday, March 16th, 2009

I normally don’t get a haircut until I am already irritated with my hair. But since it’s summer, I get my hair cut regularly. That would mean once a month. Tomorrow, I am off to the salon to get a haircut from my favorite hairstylist. I will also have a facial and a foot spa. Yey!
;)

Teka tagalugin ko lang ito at feel ko mag-Tagalog… Kaloka talaga ang katamarang nararamdaman ko! Ang hirap paalisin si Tina(tamad) sa tabi ko hay. Tignan mo pati naman title nitong post ko wala akong maisip. Buti na lang yung mga routine nagagawa ko pa rin. Nakapag-back up naman ako ng databases at naka-drop naman kahit paano. Other than that, the usual updates, medyo mabagal ako these past few days.

Sana naman itong gabi medyo makarami ako. Kailangang isipin ko na lang si blogger-friend na super sipag naman talaga! Kakainggit!
:D
Anyway, I am still hoping for a productive week. Or at least a more positive week for me :)
Happy Monday!

Balikbayan box

Monday, March 16th, 2009

Yong, our cousin, has been asking us what we want for his next balikbayan box. Of course, my brother, James, asked for an xbox 360. I told Yong that he need not bother for us girls. He’ll be sending something for the boys, though. I will just subsidize the xbox 360 for my brother. For my dad, I believe he’ll be sending a shirt and something else. I hope it’s not cigarettes.

Sleepers

Monday, March 16th, 2009

Last week we watched Sleepers again. This movie really touched my heart. When I watched this back in college, I had my youngest brother in mind the whole time. What if this happens to my brother? What if an innocent fun turned out wrong? What if a naughty bet will lead to something gruesome? I had so many fears lurking in my mind after watching that great movie. Whenever I see or hear about New York Yankees tickets, I always remember the character of Robert de Niro lying on stand just to get the two main characters our of the jail time. I remember John’s (the youngest of the four main characters) eyes, still innocent-looking despite the horrors that lay underneath it. If you have a young teenager boy with you and you happen to watch this movie or read the book, you’ll have fears of it happening to him afterwards. Sigh.

Diet and rice intake

Monday, March 16th, 2009

I definitely need diet pills now! I am not denying it but I am lackadaisical when it comes to acting on it. I do not exercise regularly these days. I wake up early but I go to work right away. I don’t run like Raquel. I do brisk walking instead. I need to cut my rice intake, of course. This has been my problem ever since. I cannot eat a meal without rice. But hopefully, in a few weeks, I will be able to adjust. And weight loss follows.
