water works and earthquake drills

friday morning started early. i was up at 5am so i could be on my way to makati by 6. i had enough time to fix my hair... so i was at least happy about that. so anyway, made it to our 9am meeting in katipunan in time --- rain and all.

the meeting was long but surprisingly interesting! but what made it even memorable was the earthquake drill scheduled right in the middle of our meeting block. hahahaha! naka-iwas nga ako sa fire drill sa office, but there was no way i was getting out of this one. so we ducked under the tables (which wasnt easy) and had our photos taken for "documentation". then headed out to the parking lot. hahaha.

ayways, it was funny at that time. hahahaha!

a love story

im really not a fan of any of the three main actors of this movie, but i was curious about the story from the first time i saw the trailer one sunday morning. luckily, we were allowed to sponsor the movie... because marya is an endorser of one of my accounts, and i scored tickets to the premiere.

highlights of the night:

1. walking the red carpet... with ena and joan... with matching waiting crowds on the side ready to take celeb photos. apparently, pwede pala dumaan sa gilid to enter the theater like what iya did. MALAY! hahahahaha. nagtataka siguro mga tao kung sino kaming feeling na naglalakad sa red carpet! hahahaha! well, they probably thought entourage kami ni susan roces kasi she came a few steps behind us.

2. the monopoly of SM cinema food. outside food was not allowed inside the cinemas so we had no choice but to buy from their snack bar. HOLDAP! 80 bucks for super konting popcorn... na halos di mo naman malasahan yung butter... and 115 kung "meal" na with a large softdrink. haller. that would have bought me a 2-pc chickenjoy meal! anyways, we were starving so okay na rin.

3. sitting amongst fans. we opted not to sit with the stars in the premiere section... and it was an experience! gusto ko batukan yung mga katabi ko kasi ang daming side comments!!! and their voices were so loud pa. asar talaga. so when i told them to keep it down, ang bastos talaga of them to giggle pa at what i said. its called etiquette you bitches. they almost ruined the movie for me. to think i gave them that seat pa! i was being nice na nga e. hemph. anyways, i still loved the movie... di ako naiyak kasi nga sa dalawang magulo sa tabi ko. but i think it was a good movie. id go see it again.

4. dining amongst stars. iya, joan and i got to go to the cast party afterwards... and stared at aga. hahaha. he looks so much better in person than on tv. gwapo talaga. i was able to talk to him suuper briefly lang when we gave the gift pack to the cast.. i just congratulated him and he looked at me and thanked me with a smile. hay. sabi ko nga kay joan, ano kaya feeling na ganun yung katabi mo matulog every night... di siguro ako makakatulog. hahahaha.

somber

im in a gloomy mood today. must be both the lack of sleep after a very tiring and stressful day yesterday and some slightly bad news here at the office.

sometimes its really hard to do what we accounts people do. the position we're in gives us access to a lot of things related to our brands' activities that there is a lot of responsibility resting on our shoulders. and in the same way, we are able to watch everyone's back... we're the go-to guys (or gals) when shit is about to explode. but the question is, who's got our back? the sad truth is, we're the go-to guy too when things start to get ugly. hahaha. i guess that should make people in accounts who have stayed for so many long decades one of the strongest willed people alive.

anyways, i have tomorrow to look forward to. laguna air should do me good... and views without massive buildings should keep me distracted from the stresses of a career woman's life. tomorrow ill be much better. i just need sleep.

super sunday

a quick trip back to my childhood. i was supposed to do store checks but i figured i needed to store up on energy for the week. ill just fit in the store checks somehow during the week. hahaha. watched the sound of music all of sunday afternoon. funny how it seems different from how i remember it to be when i was younger. i guess its because different things entertain me now that im older. hahahahaha!

i really enjoy sundays. not only because i get to spend 90% of it in bed, but because mom always cooks something special or at least different for us on sundays. lunch today was some fish dish with mango salad with juansoy. dinner was soft tacos... it was supposed to taste greek but since mom used salsa, it ended up being mexican. hehe.

i think today was a great day... even if i woke up feeling a but under the weather, the rest of the day still rocked. sana weekend na ulit!!!

ka-PAU!

friday was a really quick day. had an online over lunch so i barely had 2 hours at the office in the morning. after the online, i decided to just work out of the office since i really was not up to walking down the fire exit from the 26th floor for the building's fire drill.

instant salon day for some officemates and myself. haha. i got really lucky phillipe was abe to literally squeeze me into his fully booked day to cut my hair. yay! just the change i so badly needed! too bad i wasnt able to take photos of the newly styled hair fresh out of the salon. haha.

best part of the day... dinner with pau! i missed this boy so much! but what was great was that it felt as if he never left. we talked about the same things... well updates on the things we always talk about. see you again pau! (and thanks for letting me know... well, sort of. yun na yun! ;p)

wala... bitin nanaman...

not so long ago, i was vaguely referring to a chance i decided to take. kaso, sad news... bitin e. another "not meant to be".

its all good. there is more where that came from. haha.

next please!

randomness to de-clutter my brain

im taking abreak to unload my brain with some of the unnecessary thoughts bobbing in my head.

- been working hard to get my groove back and i think im getting there. :p
- have to buy joaqui's birthday gift this weekend. will likely be busy next week.
- double time on the family trip options so mommy can decide if we're pushing through or not
- get rid of more clothes in my closet
- how come it doesnt rain when im dressed for rain?
- get more quality sleep... enought late night tv. sleepiness slows me down... i lose momentum.
- need to get my hair cut. i wonder if i should cut it short, color it or just let him take over and do whatever he wants to do with my hair? hahaha.
- i realized i got my temper from my mom and my dad's evasive tactics. bad combo.
- i feel like im losing weight, but the numbers dont show it.
- must get my hands on a copy of The Secret

thats the it!
