who says that eyes are the windows to the soul?!

someone once told me (im not sure if it was mel or pau) that the key to knowing what i really feel or what mood im in, is my hair. gosh, ang babaw ko pala talagang tao! oddly enough, sometimes i find it to be true. its either a good hair day swings me into a good mood or my good mood magically makes my hair look fantastic. hahaha!

when once our kasambahay told me that i look different on weekends. despite the times i barely had a wink's sleep from staying out, i look happier and fresh on weekends. or so she says. on weekdays, mukha daw pasan ko daigdig. my eyebags are darker, deeper and puffier. niiiiiice. i wonder how much truth there is to her observation? am i just naturally happier to be home than at work?

so today, i decided to keep my hair neatly (and painstakingly OC-ish) in a low ponytail with my usual straight diagonal part. my side-swept bangs are behaved, and my ponytail isnt tikwas like it normally would. today is a great hair day. so, if the hair-theory is true, then today should be a great day.

that has yet to be determined. :p

someone give back my happy thoughts

what do you do when you wake up one afternoon and you realize you lost your happy thought? i dont know when, why or how it happened, but i just lost mine. I LOST IT. how can i lose my happy thought?!

if someone sees it, please give it back.

the day i met john

totally caught off guard (understatement).

going about official business at cibo ABS... i shouldnt have underestimated tita chit. i was literally blown away... ang bilis ng mga pangyayari. the next thing i knew, katabi ko na si john prats. AS IN! i could not look at him... hahaha. di ko kinaya. wasnt prepared at all!!!

good thing, little girl had the best idea of insisting i have my picture taken with him... so she got my phone, and was trying to get the camera ready... ano sabi ko? "wag yan, may camera ako sa bag ako..." hahahahahahaha! nagpaka-fan. buti na lang talaga may camera ako lagi sa bag ko. kasi ang pangit ng resolution ng photos sa phone ko.

but it doesnt end there... photo number two.. and what did i say? "five years kong hinintay 'to" bwahahahaha!!!!! ang jologs. hahahaha.

nag-short circuit utak ko. as in i could not think. i never thought that id meet him today. hahaha. and to top it all off... to add to my embarrasing one-liners... when tita chit kept taunting me by asking him to look at me kasi kamukha ko daw si kim (nung payat pa ha... importante yan i-qualify)... ano sabi ko? (to him) "ang kamukha ko sister mo..." Lord Almighty... sukdulan na talaga yun.

it was a really jologs moment... cold hands, cold sweat and all... hahaha. i have to redeem myself. im asking for a second meeting. and this time, im going to be prepared.
i am going to relish this for the next few days... OH HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY DAY.

end of an era

we all have fond memories of things, people, and places we grew up with. and last night marked the end of one of my fond highschool memories.

my cousin ana, whom i grew close to through the years, used to be the road manager for the wiseguys (not sure if anyone would be familiar with them). and around second year highschool, she started bringing me to their gigs... and mommy would only allow me to go out if i was with ana. so my gimik life literally was dependent on their gigs. i looked forward to fridays and saturdays when i get to watch them (usually at strumms, chatter box galle, and 8th day) and was sure to have much fun. kaya siguro maaga din ako na-expose sa mga green jokes ng all boy group. hahaha. come to think of it, grad ball date ko was a close friend of one of them. and right after the awarding (as in i didnt join the dancing dancing part), we headed straight to blue lizard along pasay road for their gig. they were part of the secret life i led. hahaha. mom had no idea id drink, and my schoolmates had no idea that the simple little me then had such a night life.

i carried over this habit onto college but i kinda stopped going around senior year (fiddler's green na kasi pinapanuod ko. hehehe) until when i started working.

but i digress... about last night. last night was precisely that... their last night. ana YM-ed me telling me they were disbanding... nakaka-sad. while we were there, i cant help but feel sentimental... my huge HS crush on Jam (na ngayon siguro minor crush na lang... he's still my favorite) how they'd tease me about my hips and ass (well, everyone does, and they still do), etc.

well, thats the end of it. i tried to take in allt he sights and sounds of last night... to add to the memories... memories that started nung nagdadalaga pa lang ako (yuck, ang baduy pakinggan).

ps. its funny they still see me as 'nene'... and even funnier they all say "angel, dalaga ka na..." to which im so tempted to say, "um, kasi 25 years old na ako... lampas na ako sa dlaaga stage." hahaha. unless they're referring to dalaga as in single woman. hahaha.

andrea's 1st bday party was fun. i sat at the singles table and iya was with the mommy's table.. hehe. sweetie pie martine.

spiderman and a couple of beers with the BF boys at central. thank God for the boys... really appreciate the time out with them since those are pretty much the only times i get to do stuff other than work. :p

my weekend went by so fast. and i woke up with a really bad stomach ache... so ended up going on half day. here's to an equally busy week. at least i have bangkok to look forward to this weekend.
