movie spree

Tue, 03 Mar 2009 14:53:22 GMT

went on a movie spree last week. watched three consecutive movies--he's just not that into you, confessions of a shopaholic and you changed my life.

what can i say? i loved the three movies! definitely a must-see. i read the whole shopaholic series and i have my own copy of he's just not that into you. these two are one of those movies who made justice to the book. and maybe because i can totally relate to both (i used to have like a P100k-credit card debt which took forever to pay and of course everyone knows i went through the "he's just not that into me"-phase) that is why i enjoyed watching it. billy was very sweet to accompany me even though he was bored watching both especially confessions of a shopaholic. he claims he's never seen a movie so girly and gay! hahaha...

i had high expectations on you changed my life. i loved the first movie (a very special love) and i think its way better than the sequel. i guess when its superficial its more kilig. you changed my life focused on the more serious things and issues in a relationship. i got a bit irritated with the "bebe ko"-ringtone and the mushy way they talk on the celfone. but all in all the movie was still way way better than kc and richard's when i met you (which i also saw on the same week but would rather not include in this blog entry). sarah is such a good actress. so natural and fun. john lloyd is perfect! i loved the scene where he was in the airport in his tux and raybans doing the raindance. o-m-g!!! hotness!!!!

tsk tsk!

we got news this morning about another round of lay-offs in our company.. this is getting really sad and a bit disturbing. i can't help but be a little scared coz i might be next (although we got assurance that it is far from happening but sometimes you just can't help but be worried).

i pray and hope things will get stable again soon..

i ended the yr right this time!

.. and i wish everyone a happy new year!

bad day

Mon, 24 Nov 2008 15:29:05 GMT

the stars must really hate me today.. just when i thought things couldn't get any better more and more bad luck are coming my way as the day ends! grrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!

(1) my alarm woke me up 530 but i let it snooze for a couple of times only to realize that its 8am already! just great!!! now im late!
(2) all my sisters left already so i have no choice but to commute only to find a really long (as in really really long) line in the terminal. oh-my-god!!!! it took me 45 minutes to wait for the freaking fx. haaay!
(3) the ride took forever! work for the mrt and lrt connection has already started so there's a major traffic from nlex all the way to edsa-balintawak. amazingly the mrt was not packed so the ride from qc to makati went smoothly and really quick.
(4) as i was entering glorietta i suddenly stopped on my tracks because someone pulled my backpack. and it was none other than this irritating lady guard who told me to open my backpack! and i was like "what are those things for??" (i was referring to the black thing that they use to scan the person and the bag)... "bakit pa tumutunog yan? alam mo ba kung ano hinahanap mo sa bag ko?" i know its a procedure that they check the bags of every person who enters the mall but pulling my bag? for some reason i just don't feel like obeying this stupid law! arrrggghhh!
(5) since artes was due today, i decided to shop for the remaining items for the christmas party then i realized i left my credit card! just amazing! luckily my mom was on her way to makati so i asked her to bring it for me. i took a cab and met her halfway in buendia to get my credit card. just as i was crossing the street this black fortuner sped by and splashed murky and muddy water in my pants. wtf?!?!?! wet feet! dirty pants! i was already fuming because of all the bad things that are happening and its only 12nn.
(6) i went straight to sm makati to shop for the raffle items to be given during the party after meeting my mom. the shopping experience was fun and all the sales lady were very helpful and attentive. i need to have the receipts addressed to accenture and they told me to go to the customer service in 3rd floor to have it done. but since i still need a couple of other items i went to the grocery in the ground floor first before dealing with the receipts. the cashier from the grocery told me that the or is also only given at the 3rd floor so i went there right after. guess what the lady from the customer service told me? that i should get the receipts at the ground floor and not in 3rd floor. i can already feel thick black smoke coming out of my nose and ears. the lady must have sensed my anger coz she was profusely apologizing and even asked me to sit down first and relax. after a few minutes i went down since i obviously don't have any other choice (the girl again apologized for the nth time which made my mood a tiny bit better).
(7) since i have around 20 bags which i obviously cannot carry even with two guys in tow, we decided to take a cab. again there is a really long line of passengers waiting for taxis. just as we were about to get in, the rain started pouring. and i mean pouring like really hard making us and our groceries wet.
(8) i relaxed a bit when i got back in the office since the hard part is already done. i can just ask the rest of my team to fix the groceries. it took me an hour to update the budget and submit it to my manager for approval. after an hour i got another bad news! all the receipts were invalid and cannot be used. apparently we have a new policy (that i was not aware of coz it was not rolled-out to the project) and i have to find 25k-worth of restaurant receipts to have my money reimbursed. o-m-g! as in o-m-g! i feel like i'm about to explode. but i'm just too tired. it feels like a really long day already and its only 3pm. i'm tired, i haven't started any real work and now this??? obviously i spent the rest of the afternoon looking for the fucking receipts from different people. i left work around 930 and was able to get 12k-worth of receipts (thank you lord!). i need all the luck in the world to raise the other half before the deadline which is tomorrow afternoon.

... and that is the story of my really bad day! 11.24.08, i now proclaim this as bad luck day!!!

please please please make things better tomorrow...

..... i am definitely watching this!!!!!

just another week..

Sun, 28 Sep 2008 14:38:43 GMT

monday was fun.. got to see my high school friends. we had dinner in this korean place in shangri-la then coffee at gloria jeans. i just love it when abbey's in town!

tuesday was work work work for me... i hate it when the release date is soo near. everyday gets more stressful than the other..

wednesday was no different from tuesday..

thursday was a little different.. aside from the stress brought by work at the back of my mind i kept thinking about the lasalle-ateneo match and praying that we win. i was having a meeting and it was very distracting everytime i get a text message saying that ateneo is leading. the day ended really disappointing! it was a dirty win for ateneo but i guess thats life!!! they were the better team this year. well for me back-to-back championships are way way better than winning after 6 years.. thank god i had dinner in gb5 with some college friends afterwards. it helped me forget for a while la salle's loss..

friday was really confusing and weird but it ended on a happy note..

saturday was so-so.. dropped by the office to work for awhile then watched eagle eye with my officemates. the movie was really tiring.. action-packed and very violent!

sunday was relaxing.. spent the afternoon with amy going around trinoma doing a little shopping.. had a spoiled dashing diva pedicure.. pigged out in teriyaki boy and cibo where i saw sam milby (i wasn't up to being my jologs self so no pictures)...

emotional weekend

Sun, 21 Sep 2008 15:45:11 GMT

went drinking with basketball player look-alike guy and some friends.. the whole time he held my hand under the table.. the goodnight kiss (i could have sworn he gave me one even if i was really drunk).. it all brings back the "naloloka" feeling i have come to forget..

was in the same party with chinito guy.. we were in the same room and within two feet of each other for a couple of hours.. it was one of the longest and most awkward nights of my life. i don't know if we'll ever be friends again.. but i do hope so we will be in time.. yes he doesn't make me feel crazy anymore nor do the sight of him makes my heart dive, but he still makes me sad.. i guess because i miss the friendship. he used to be a big part of my life.. now he's just an acquaintance that i can't even look in the eye or say hi to..

ateneo won game one.. now i'm not so confident about la salle winning the uaap championship series..

i heart yael

this is definitely not his best shot but he is hot! hot! hot!!!!!!

not really into sponge cola but after watching yael perform i am now officially a fan..

p.s.
i am forever indebted to emong who was soooo lucky to be part of the accenture photography club for letting me grab a couple of yael pics from his site.
