when i get angry, or irritated, i normally keep it by myself, and indulge myself to silence. and this time, i also sweat it out, and burn all the negativity that i am feeling. and now, it gets to my work too, that i became a little OC. i don't know if this is good or bad, but all i know is I feel drained afterwards.

i broke my bottle of perfume... :( so sayang... :(

January 27, 2009 ... I can imagine myself to be there at the front row, just like Gary V.'s concert. But I know it will be very expensive this time especially that it will be held in Manila. And I can use the money for other important things like for the down payment on commercial real estate or any other investment that I want to pursue. So, for the meantime, I can only dream. It's really exciting especially that some of my friends love David Cook as much as I do, and they also entertained the thought of going to Manila and watch the concert. I hope he will have his concert in Cebu... in that way, the probability that I will be watching the concert will increase.
Yesterday ends today for me. Phewww! Exhausting! Though I am very tired right now, but I can proudly say that my day is quite productive. It's already 5AM, and I don't have sleep yet. I just want to blog before going to bed about what made me busy last weekend.
It's Larry and Sergey that kept me occupied. :D It's basically a " from rags to riches story" and how Google became a verb from a noun. =) It's nice to read again. I think a no-connection at home do good for me, and it keeps me away from my laptop for awhile. And by the way, regarding my previous post, I just dreamt of these 2 smart guys. Ahihihi. I had a date with them! Hahaha!
Larry and Sergey maybe one of the richest and youngest billionaires, who can buy everything that they want; from a powerful steering rack, to the most beautiful house that you can imagine, but, they know that happiness is beyond those things. I certainly salute them! And I'll be waiting for my first check these coming months from you guys! :p

I am not talking about Public Display of Affection, but, I am talking about Pinoy Dream Academy. I always enjoy watching the show. I love everything about it except the drama. I love their voice blending exercises, their performances, and even their dancing class. Makes me miss my high school life where I was active in dancing and singing. Nope, I am not that talented. I think I just love anything that has something to do about music. And I am glad I have those experiences with me. =)
Ok, so I envy their performances last night especially their dancing exercises. That's why I'll be hitting the gym tomorrow for my HipHop class. Weee!!!

Sometimes, I wish that I'll be driving my own car. But, with the gas prices soaring high, and not to mention the maintenance and the car insurance, it's probably not practical to own one (or wish for one. hehe). I know having a car will spell convenience, but, am I ready for the cost it will take me?

Enjoyed reading my archives. I seldom do this. Made me remember both the good and bad times =)

Had a good sleep last night... it's been awhile since I had one especially with my insomnia. I think I'll give the credit to my body aches I got from our island hopping last Sunday, and of course to Omega pain killer. They are like sleeping pills to me. =)
Ok, so I had a good morning, until I heard people bashing to other people. And now, this disturbs me already. I heard this "bashing thing" a couple of times already, so, I think enough is enough people! You can't solve problems when you just keep on whining and whining and not doing anything about it. And now, I am the one whining! Waaah!!
So, on a positive note, here's a nice quote that I bumped somewhere...
if wealth is the secret to happiness, then the rich should be dancing on the street; but only poor kids do that…
if power ensures peace of mind, then officials should walk unguarded; but those who live simply, sleep soundly…
if beauty and fame bring ideal relationships, then celebrities should have the best marriages; but those who trust God completely have the most fulfilling relationships…
You can be as rich as Bill Gates, or one of the members of the elite Callaway golf clubs ; you can be as famous as the Hollywood stars, but for sure, these things are not ticket to happiness.
I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut My weakness is that I care too much And my scars remind me that the past is real I tear my heart open just to feel
I'm Drunk and I'm feeling down And I just wanna be alone I'm pissed 'cause you came around Why don't you just go home? 'Cause I channeled all your pain And I can't help you fix yourself You're making me insane All I can say is...
[Chorus:] I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut And my weakness is that I care too much And our scars remind us that the past is real I tear my heart open just to feel
I tried to help you once Against my own advice I saw you going down But you never realized That you're drowning in the water So I offered you my hand Compassion's in my nature Tonight is our last stand
[Chorus]
I'm drunk and I'm feeling down And I just wanna be alone You shoulda' never come around Why don't you just go home? 'Cause you're drowning in the water And I tried to grab your hand I left my heart open But you didn't understand But you didn't understand
Go fix yourself
I can't help you fix yourself But at least I can say I tried I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life I can't help you fix yourself But at least I can say I tried I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life
Folks, that's not a bouquet of flowers, but that's a spicy flower salad that I ordered at Bohol Bee Farm in the Philippines. It is made with very thin slivers of chicken, assorted ground nuts with flower petal topped with stir fried onion. The dressing is a mixture of chili's, ginger, calamansi juice, fish sauce and honey. That salad is worth 190pesos or around 4USD.
At first I was hesitant to eat it, but the salad is delicious and not to mention, healthy too!
I want a clean-up of my iPod; delete all the low-quality mp3s and upload some of my new selections. :) And yes, I want the Urbandub's first album back in my playlist. Hearing one of their songs yesterday made me crave for more of their emo-rock type music.

My sis is also doing a clean-up in Manila since she will be moving out soon! So, to my friends who are in Manila, you might want to drop by in her place and check out her garage sale. Hehehe. Good thing, my sis doesn't have outdoor furniture.

To be strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet. To make all your friends feel that there is something in them. To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true. To think only of the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best. To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own. To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievement of the future. To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a SMILE. To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others. To be TOO LARGE for worry, TOO NOBLE for anger, TOO STRONG for fear and TOO HAPPY to permit the presence of trouble.

I have to watch what I am eating. I just noticed that I am eating everything that I imagined delicious these past days. Grrr. I need to double time with my gym sessions or else, I'll end up taking Anoretix which I don't want to do. And I am now close to my self-imposed deadline. Huh.
This pigging out should stop.

I enjoyed watching this movie as much as I enjoyed watching Across The Universe! Call me oldie, but I can imagine Abba and The Beatles songs still be sung by my grandchildren. :)
I love the movie's energy, fun and the sunshine it brings. So full of life! And Meryl Streep is such a versatile actress! I love her! And Pierce Brosnan is still a cutie even with his white hairs. :)

I have climbed the highest mountains I have run through the fields Only to be with you Only to be with you
I have run I have crawled I have scaled these city walls Only to be with you But I still haven't found What I'm looking for But I still haven't found What I'm looking for
I have kissed honey lips Felt the healing in her fingertips It burned like fire This burning desire I have spoke with the tongue of angels I have held the hand of a devil It was warm in the night I was cold as a stone But I still haven't found What I'm looking for But I still haven't found What I'm looking for
Almost every day, oil price increases. And the effect? All prices of any commodity increased too.. From fares, to food to anything you can think of. Haay, sadness. If only we could just use a bike as our daily transportation, it would certainly be of great help. What we need to do is be a wise consumer in this time of crisis.
Like in the field of IT, you can order techie stuffs online at Xoxide to save money and time. They sell computer cases, CPU fans, power supplies, and a lot more. They have a superb customer service, so don't worry if you have questions. They also have special offer each week and offers a discount on a particular product. So, always check their website for their weekly announcement. Another cool thing is that they have this list of “staff picks”. These items are highly recommended by the staffs and of course from their satisfied clients.

One can wear eyeglasses now without looking old... thanks to zennioptical.com for having this brilliant idea and going against the oldies style. Especially to kikay girls, they can still express their kikayness even with glasses. The picture below is one of my favorite eye frames they got... in PINK! Or, you can choose a dark frames if you want to create a serious impression to people. =)
Spent more than 15 hours of work yesterday, in preparation of my no-work policy this coming weekend! I just want to relax, free my mind from anything, take pictures and have a good sleep. And next week will be another busy week for us, especially that our boss will be coming here and take a peep on his children. Hehehe. Oh boss, we need a raise! Mahal na ang plete sa jeep po! :D And we are also excited of your pasalubongs to us; the 4G flash drive sounds better than those company logo shirts. :)
I love dancing. It's one thing that pushed me in going to the gym and the reason why I chose CitiGym in particular. I enjoyed the beat of Hip Hop, Step Up and soon, I'll be joining the belly dancing class. I plan to join all the group exercises para sulit akong bayad. Hehehe. Honestly, I am having fun. This is better than taking pills like Phentermine no prescription required. It feels healthy this way. :)
