Much needed getaway

Friday, April 22nd, 2011

Getaway

My sister and I were talking an hour or so ago about how we all need a getaway. We badly need a vacation, even a very short one, just to be away from these all. We need good vibes. We need to recharge and just take all the negative things in our minds and bodies out. OUT!

We are all in dire need of a getaway. But where to?

:(

Always frowning

Friday, April 22nd, 2011

I am always frowning these past few days. I always find myself full of negative emotions. I hate the noise. I hate the discomfort. I hate the inconvenience. I hate the guilt I always feel and carry around with me!

I hate what I’ve become the past few weeks. I have always tried to be a positive person. I actually live a positive life to inspire others around me to do the same. But these past few weeks, my siblings always see me struggling to stay sane. They always see me frowning. I always find myself getting angry.

I hate this person that I’ve become!

What I need…

Tuesday, April 19th, 2011

…is to feel motivated again.

I need to feel inspired! Like those days when I was still starting out. Or a year into it.

I don’t feel that way anymore. I need something and I can’t figure out what it is exactly.

A new haircut

New haircut

I had a new haircut! For weeks I’ve been planning to get a haircut but whenever I was near a salon, I’d either be running out of time or sick. Of course when I am even slightly sick, I don’t want anyone fussing over me. It makes me dizzy and irritated.

Anyway, so today my sister, Hazel and I went to church and planned to go somewhere else but Hazel all of a sudden insisted we go to the mall. My sister and I thought we might as well get a footspa but there was a waiting list when we got there. That’s when getting a haircut became a possibility!

So I came home today with a new haircut and a brand new coat of nail polish.

Good times!

;)

Ooops! :D

I am so sorry about that!

Hahaha! I had two big boo-boos yesterday! It shouldn’t have been published but there you go! I just hope not everyone saw it :P

I was so tired and that’s not excuse but maybe that’s the reason why I didn’t notice that I published two very empty entries. I am really sorry and I hope no one saw it or if you did, just ignore what you saw, okay?

Happy Monday!

Awakened by the tinkling of a bell..

Sunday, February 20th, 2011

Last Thursday afternoon, around 2pm, I was awakened from my much-needed siesta. It was a bell tinkling loudly outside the house. I knew what that sound was. It was the sound of that magbi-binatog‘s bike parked in front of our house’s gate! He was sounding his bike’s bell as a way to call customers. I had nothing against the binatog man. In fact, I love binatog! But I knew he noticed how quiet our house was that Thursday afternoon, and every afternoon before that he would do this in front of our gate.

To cut the long story short, I got up from my bed, went to the gate of the house and told the magbi-binatog to get the hell out and not come back anymore! I told him that he can go sell his corn elsewhere. He needs to stop parking his bike in front of our house, sounding his bell and waking up whoever is taking a nap within the vicinity! He left and my sister told me a few hours after that she saw the guy parked a couple of houses away from ours. Good!

Anyway, so I ended up awake rather than sleeping. I only had two hours of sleep the night before that so I was really cranky and irritable. To stop myself from being fully angry, I daydreamed. Yes, I went to my happy place and dreamed of a new house. I dreamed of those glass tiles that I want so much to be the wall of our bathroom, and the ceiling of a portion of the house. Just so natural light can come in that would save us a lot in electric bills. I dreamt of better bedrooms. Two bathrooms. A nice looking living room complete with the cushiest sofas and a wide LCD TV. My own home-office space with my book shelves. And so on.

The daydreaming did the trick. I fell asleep after probably 30 minutes. I awakened refreshed and not annoyed with the magbi-binatog anymore.

Long posts

Saturday, February 19th, 2011

I am not in the mood to write long posts now. Do you know why? My brain is fried. From too much thinking! It ought to be functioning just for that purpose, I know. Still, if you exhaust your brain this much, I think it will somehow fight back to make you stop using it even for a while.

Anyway, I haven’t been using my brain much for the past couple of hours now. I am playing a no brainer game in Facebook. You know that Bubble Island game? I love that one! When you start playing you just can’t stop!

I will be back to post some more much, much later.

Ciao!

Rediscovering Twilight and its magic

Monday, February 7th, 2011

Twilight

I am re-reading Twilight by Stephenie Meyer. I would like to remember why I loved the book a lot. I just felt that with the movie adaptation, the book lost its ‘magic’ that created a cult following. Whenever I hear about Twilight, I roll my eyes and would immediately think “silly” and “shallow”. Whereas before all I could think about was how hot Edward was and how good the book was. After reading The Vampire Diaries by L.J. Smith, seeing Kristen Stewart as Bella Swan, disappointed with the Catherine Hardwicke-directed movie, hearing and reading how Stephenie Meyer gushed about the uber disappointing/laughable movie (which to me was adapted from an entirely different book), I felt the altar of Twilight adoration I built collapse right before my very eyes.

So now I am trying to rediscover Twilight and the magic I felt the first time I read it.

Slowly recovering

Friday, February 4th, 2011

I have been sick for the past two weeks already. Flu. Started with a bad cough then with a high fever. Yesterday, Hazel, my sisters and I watched Tangled. Today, we went to the same mall for the first day of the 3-day mallwide sale. I didn’t want to stay at home anymore and really wanted to go out so even if I still have fever and still coughing, I went out. Yesterday and today. Hehehe

The Great Northern Sale

My family and I are very mababaw. Just a trip to the mall is enough for us. We bought quite a few of the things we need. And watches for me and my sister Rox. I wanted to buy books since there’s a 20% discount in Fully Booked but there are no new ones that interested me. Sayang.

This is really a “Thank God it’s Friday” day! How’s your Friday so far? I hope everyone’s having fun!

Happy weekend to all!

How do I?

Wednesday, January 26th, 2011

It’s so hard to work when you are so tired and sleepy. I’ve been that way since we came back from our weekend getaway in Cebu. Been so tired and sleepy and am in no mood to work. I know I need to but I’m the type of person who can’t control herself when all she can think of is staying in bed until the exhaustion wears off.

I really need to get back on track and finish all the pending tasks I have. But how when all I want is to go back to bed and say hello to sweet oblivion?

Fingertalks found! ;)

Friday, January 7th, 2011

You might have read an entry I wrote back in August 2010 about my blogger friends Des and Cai. Fingertalks and Pink Urinal. I wrote about missing them and how I couldn’t find Des of Fingertalks anymore.

You know what good thing happened yesterday?!?

I found her! Or she found me o_O

She sent me an email not sure if I am still using the account. She said that she did a search and saw the post I’ve written. I’m so happy I found her! I missed our girl talks! She lost her old Fingertalks.com site but she said that she’s in the process of claiming it again. She’s now blogging at Fingertalks.info for the meantime. Drop by and say hi if you have the time ;)

The internet is really one great tool in finding long lost friends. So glad I found Fingertalks again.

:D
