manic monday!

Our President once again gave our company a treat! We spent the whole day in My Cinema watching KingKong and Live 8. What a nice start for this week!

highly recommended (part II)

The Longest Yard is on top of my favorite 2005 movies!!!! I just love this movie.

It's Survival of the Fiercest and Funniest.

It's super funny. As in!

Haaay... life is good!



I love Adam Sandler. He rocks, baby!

My friend, Chef Florabel Co finally opened her own restaurant! Check her out at the Podium. Really, really good food!!!!

I had lunch there today and I absolutely love the foie gras balsamic salad with maple syrup (something like that) - it's just heavenly!

better days

Tonight was our pre-10th year Reunion meeting. There were 11 of us, putting our heads together, planning for our big event next year. It still amazes me how time flies so fast. 10 years ago, we were just Highshcool Seniors with big hopes and fears for the future. And now we find ourselves together once again - some still stuck in the past, some living their dreams, while others are still struggling and wondering what to do with their lives. Though we all have taken different paths, one thing hasn't changed...when we get together, we really know how to have some fun!

I couldn't stop laughing the whole evening. Reminiscing highschool days in good old Sta. Rosa -- classmates, teachers, events, gimmicks -- I took it all in and I can't help but thank God for making me go through all those experiences. I miss Taro!!! Aaarggh.

My original barkada (blurred picture up there) was present except for three persons. We expect better attendance next year when the big day comes.

10 years since highschool! still can't get over this.

I'm getting old, baby! And I'm loving every minute of it!

coming soon....

I think I can do this. I can't wait for My GIG shop to open! Watch out friends! I have turned into a businesswoman!

This could be fun.

*sigh*

Pinag-iisipan kung ano ang gagawin
Nagsasalita sa harap ng salamin
Naghahanap ng pagkakataon
Lakas ng loob ay iniipon

"Meron akong ipagtatapat sayo
Mahal kita"

bilog na naman ang buwan

Coming from the CCF Singles' Christmas Party,
Rico and I decided to go to UP and catch this year's Elvis Concert.

It was fun! And it felt very refreshing to be back in UP again.

Gotta go for now! Goodnight!

walking on water

I just realized that I have been so busy the past weeks that I have not been updating this blog. So here I am! Welcome me back, folks!

The past three weeks, I have been in the hospital twice. I still wonder why at this age, I am already battling health issues. I told a friend once that I have dreamt so many times in the past that I will die young. Doesn't 26 qualify as young? I hope not.

I took an exam earlier this week (this time for my MBA class). I felt pretty confident because I was able to read through my notes and practice some of the calculations although I was aware that I missed one topic. I figured, if that one topic ever comes up in the exam, what's a few points taken out of my final score, right? But that is not the case after all. As my teacher passed around the exam sheet, I felt a bit nervous for not studying that one topic.

So what is the point, right? I just learned something valueable from this exam experience. Simplify. That's the key word. I got so worked up with problem number 3 that I ended up using so many complicated calculations when I could just have simply multiplied alll the given numbers and voila! - there's the right answer! Yes, I sometimes complicate things in my life. Instead of saying sorry I tend to explain my actions. Instead of saying I love you, I end up shying away and feeling all messed up for not being upfront about my feelings.

Simplify. That's what I gotta do!
