Heat is on!

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

I already feel so darn sleepy and it’s not yet even 4am!

The heat is really sucking you dry and making you drowsy. That’s how it is with me. I have so much to write about but my mind and body are not coordinating properly. I think my brain’s fried from the heat!

At least I was able to finish 30% of my goal for today. That’s a lot considering all I want to do is stay inside the bathroom and shower all day long.

Two movies…

AliceInWonderland

Yay! It’s Friday once again! I will be going out later to meet up with Tim. We will watch Alice in Wonderland in SM North Edsa IMAX. Fun! ;)

I love watching movies on the big screen. Yesterday, I saw Up In The Air with my sisters and Hazel. It was drool-over-George Clooney for me! The guy is an eye candy! Hay…

Today…

Saturday, February 27th, 2010
  • It’s Panagbenga in Baguio once again. Last year, we missed it because we went to Bataan instead. This year, my sisters and I were planning to go but opted not to at the last minute. We remembered that we’re trying to cut down on expenses this year so we can save up for a major project. I miss Baguio. It’s our adopted hometown. But the expense of staying in a hotel or a house rental plus going around the place, eating out, etc. is just not in our budget this quarter. Maybe next time…
  • February is about to end. My goodness! The way the days go by it’s like a marathon is happening. Ang bilis! Before we know it, Lenten season is here. Time to really step up on the savings project. Another school year is just around the corner!

Earthquake in Chile

Saturday, February 27th, 2010

I was reading tweets when I read about it from CNN Breaking News. Have you heard what happened in Chile? An 8.8 magnitude earthquake hit them! I can’t imagine how strong that quake was. The Philippines’ worst quake was the 1990 Luzon earthquake with a 7.8 magnitude where an estimated 1,621 people were killed.

It’s really scary the things that happen these days. The Haiti earthquake, then there’s a report that Japan was also hit by a 7.3 magnitude earthquake, too. Then, this one in Chile.

I am praying really hard that nothing like this will hit the country. Let’s all pray that there won’t be another earthquake hitting any country again.

Blinded by love

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

Don’t try to fool me when it comes to money matters because I’ve been there. Not to mention the fact that I was an accountant for a long time and will remain as such until I develop Alzheimer’s. Don’t try to create a scenario that you know I can easily see through. I know. I’ve been dealing with those institutions since I became a professional. I know. Okay?

Blinded by love

It’s funny how we forget to be careful when we are so blinded by love. We forget that those close to us can see through your flimsy excuses. I can understand the situation, sure. But to try to sell a scenario that I could easily figure out as untrue. Ha!

It just annoyed the hell out of me.

Just want to greet you all…

And a happy weekend, too!

Today…

Friday, February 5th, 2010

My sister, Hazel and I went to the mall (again!) to go see The Blind Side. When we checked out the time, it turned out that the movie will start playing by 4PM. We were already at the mall before noon. We opted to see Legion instead.

What can I say about the movie? Corny. That’s the most polite thing I can say about it. I should tell you that I love stories about angels, fallen or otherwise. But this movie… I was laughing when we went out the movie house. The story was forced and there’s no concrete basis as to why the Lord is apparently sending his angels to destroy every man on earth. The implicit references to the holy family was blasphemous, to say the least. The man portraying to be the child’s protector looked stupid the whole time. And the woman who’s supposed to be the modern Mary looked like a has-been tease.

Still I enjoyed it. Paul Bettany is an eye candy! May bago na akong crush! Hehe The one who portrayed Angel Gabriel is fun to watch! He looked like a cross between John Cusack and that vocalist from Hoobastank. The fight scene between Michael and Gabriel was the only scene I really enjoyed. Kate Walsh looked so old in the movie. And the old woman who bit Kate’s husband’s neck was totally creepy!

All in all, the movie gave me a good laugh. If you want something to watch just to pass the time, catch Legion. But don’t say I didn’t warn you about the storyline, okay?

Newlywed and the girls

Saturday, January 30th, 2010

TheGirls

I had so much fun meeting up with the girls again. Tim, Shen, Jing and Issang. And the newlywed, Myra. We had dinner at Jay-J’s Inasal in Timog Ave. The food was great and the price was very affordable! Our dinner lasted for hours. The place was great, very conducive to family and group of friends dining out. Our only complaint against the place is that the service was so-so. You need to exert an effort to get the attention of the service crew before they will attend to you. Otherwise, the place is really a good place to spend time with family and friends over dinner.

Anyway, I spent the night laughing so much. When you are with friends you’ve been with for years, you can talk just about anything and everything under the sun (moon in our case hehe). After dinner, we proceeded to Starbucks for some coffee and more laughter.

Myra will be going back to Dubai today. I wish her and her husband the best! And I am hoping to see my friends again soon.

Happy weekend everyone!
;)

Random thoughts for today…

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010
  • I haven’t uploaded the photos from the holidays yet. My digicam is acting up and I have other things to do than tinker with it. Probably this weekend, I just might do it.
  • My cousin and I went to the mall yesterday to have my laptop checked. I am thinking of just buying a new one instead of having it repaired. Because I might spend on the old one and it will just give me a few months of use. Anyway, I was able to get back the money I spent on buying it. I will just have to save a little bit more for a new one.
  • The sun is shining brightly in the morning and then it drizzles around noon time to early afternoon. Weird weather we have right now. It’s cold but you sweat a lot when you go out. Flu is “in” now so drink lots of water and don’t forget your vitamin C.

What’s happening with you people? Anything new?

Busy weekend

Sunday, January 10th, 2010

reading

When I have to work on weekends, I make sure I am prepared for it. I psych myself for the day ahead. That way, my mind and body know that it will be busy for the next 18 hours or so. Unlike my normal weekends wherein I just laze around the house or read the books piled in my corner.

Like this weekend. I have a really busy one. Cpanel, throttling, spam comments, transfer of blogs, domain pushing, tasks to finish. And more.

How’s your weekend so far?
