random happenings

my long overdue post..

for 3 consecutive weekends, i have been moving my butt, travelled, and enjoyed my 25-hood.. (hehehe) and now, i am broke... huhuhu!! :-( so, here are some of the random happenings for the past weeks...

--
a daughter-father bonding.

one of the nice things i get when i go home to our province is that i'll get the real sense of "relaxation". like, i don't think of work, i won't worry of what to eat, i can wake up anytime, and get to watch DVDs the whole day. not only that, i get to talk with my mom while washing the dishes, preparing for food (as if!) and cleaning the house. i enjoyed doing these things, and i value every moment of it.. and last week, i also had this bonding moment with my father.. we talked the whole night til dawn and i get entertained with his neverending stories about the BEATLES and on why he can't get over with this BEATLES-mania. we watched this new DVD that he got with Sir Paul's concert in Russia last 2003. a little trivia that i've got here was that, the Beatles were banned for decades by the Soviet government, which regarded their music as the epitome of Western decadence and propaganda, and the fans' only access to the group was through the occasional photo or black market album. so, just imagine the excitement of all Russian fans of the Beatles on that concert! my father indeed made me appreciate the Beatles more and more.. i've been listening to their music since i was young, and i know, it's kinda oldie for our generation, but, man, i learned to love those genius guys!

and by the way, we talked while drinking Fundador.. cool dad, huh? =)

horoscope of the day

The Bottom Line

If you're waiting for a major change, it won't come unless you go and seek it out.

In Detail

If you want something (or someone), go out and get it. Avoid playing hard to get or pretending you're not that interested -- they're just silly ploys to hide your insecurities, and you're much better than that. Your drive is in need of a loud wake-up call, that's all. Shake it up and make the changes you've been hoping someone else would make. You know what needs to be done, and you know how to do it. If you act boldly enough, this day will offer you many accomplishments.

manic depressive

one of my colleagues was a little surprised and told me that my entries here in my blog made me sound like i am a manic depressive. well, i can't blame him for saying that especially that i am always seen smiling, laughing, and even made other people laugh with my corny jokes and "hirits". i am a fun loving person, and whenever i smile and laugh (especially those loud laughs with my friends) those are genuine; i am not faking it, even if i have written something depressive here. reviewing my archives, i admit that i made more rantings and bitter entries than those happy ones. maybe because, i am more inspired to write when i'm depressed, when something or someone bothers me or whenever those negative feelings strike me. and maybe because, i couldn't just convey exactly in words what i am feeling that's why i get misinterpreted. though i am not a good writer, but, it won't stop me from writing/blogging. this has been my outlet, a dwelling place when my insanity strikes, a space where i could hide whenever i feel like running away.. a place, where i could just be me.

but, in general, i am a happy person. (d ba, mga fwendships?? hahaha!!) i think i need to force my friends to create a testimonial for me, stating how much fun loving i am. hahaha!! but then again, in this life, we can't escape miseries, disappointments, pains, and all those so called "spices".

yeah, yeah, i am having a well-spiced up life!

to my family, for coming here and celebrate it with me.. i always love those hearty meals.. i enjoyed every family conversation that we had.. i love you.

for all the gifts i received, and yet to receive (*wink*), flowers, hugs, and kisses... those who treated me for dinner, and for simply spending their precious time with me... thanks! thanks! thanks!

to everyone who greeted me personally, thru friendster, text, email, calls and in any other means of communication... thanks so much! it's more than enough to make me feel special on my day.

and above all, THANK YOU, Lord! for the countless blessings that you gave me! i love you!

though, some things didn't happen as what i plan/expect them to be, but, it's ok. probably, some of it is because of my own doing. i admit. i am into this crazy paranoia right now which could pushed me to go overboard.

time for introspection i guess. =)
