lil' mavee's bday
Here i go again.. I already fixed my PC here at home! YahoOo!! No need to buy a new video card.. The magic eraser worked! Ok, so it's my niece's 3rd bday yesterday, Rizal Day. We went to Imus Cavite and partied(is there such a word?!hmm) with the kids, adults (uncles and aunts) and the "so-called kids" like me. My pamangkins (Mavee, Luis and his kuya Andrei) in line for the games It's Spidey Drei! Luis and my brother Ving haha! he's running after me.. =) My nephew Luis running after me. I was so tired yesterday because this cute little boy kept on chasing me. I'm the "kalaban daw" and that's his weapon, the balloon. hehe.. We were running around a table and I barely had a headache. I miss being a child. hehe! making kulet after the party (me, Joshua, Luis, Naj) Labels: celebrations

whazz up ketchup?
Before 2004 comes to an end. I would like to pay tribute to the condiment which made my meals special and yummylicious!*My favorite del monte tomato ketchup. I think del monte should pay me for this..hehe.. Definitions of KETCHUP on the Web:
- The sea of tomato-based goop kids use to drown the dish that Mom spent hours cooking and years perfecting to get the seasoning just right.
- A thick and spicy tomato sauce, ketchup is also known as catsup. It may be used as a condiment or an ingredient.Recipe: Tomato Ketchup
- A thick, sweet sauce made with tomatoes, vinegar, sugar, salt and spices. Also known as catsup and catchup. Ketchup is said to be derived from ke-tsiap -- a spicy pickled-fish condiment popular in China.
- catsup: thick spicy sauce made from tomatoes
Definitions of KETCHUP according to Che: - isa itong mapula na di ko maintindihan kung malapot o hindi na sawsawan ng pagkain at panghalo sa mga iba pang putahe.
- karaniwan ko 'tong isinasama sa french fries, onion rings, burgers, hotdog, bbq, embutido, fried chicken, fish fillet, hashbrowns, pork chop, tocino, fried fish, egg(hard-boiled/sunny side-up/scrambled) at adobong manok/baboy (tama adobo, yung may konting sabaw. Nabobored ako sa lasa kaya nilalagyan ko ng ketchup)
- para sa karamihan lalo na sa mga carinderia, "spaghetti sauce"
WHOEVER INVENTED KETCHUP. I SALUTE YOU!! Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!! =) *Thank God i fnished the 2 day mini project. Happy Rizal day tom! Labels: chorva, food

ambot lang
May gusto ka bang sabihin? at hindi mapakali, ni hindi makatingin sana'y wag mo na 'tong palipasin at subukang lutasin, sa mga sinabi mo na........ Ibang nararapat sa akin, na tunay kong mamahalin
oh oh oh oh wag na wag mong sasabihinna hindi mo nadama itong........ pag-ibig kong handangibigay kht pa kalayaan mo hindi ko man inaakala, na ako'y isang bituin na walang sasambahin hindi ko man ito ipakita, abot langit ang daing, sa mga sinabi mo na
Ibang nararapat sa akin, na tunay kong mamahalinexcerpt from the song 'wag na wag mong sasabhin'
i kinda like the song.
KITCHIE NADAL (pic courtesy of : Philmusic.com)
------------------------------------------
Panyo mo sa aking bulsa Ang kahapon ay naroon pa rin Tawa nati'y humahalay sa init nating dalawa Subalit ngayo'y wala na Ikaw ay lumayo na
Naaalala ko ang mga gabing nakahiga sa ilalim ng kalawakan Naaalala ko ang mga gabing magkatabi sa ulan
Kulay nang iyong ngiti Tikwas ng iyong buhok At ang lambot ng iyong labi iyong labi
Kahit anino mo sa malayo Ay nais masulyapan Upang mapawi Ang lamig
excerpt from the song 'jeepney' by Sponge Cola
i heard this song on my way home the other night. The lyrics stucked on my head. RIGHT lyrics, RIGHT time..
------------------------------------------ Coincidence or mere accident or just a state of mind?
Last night i went to watsons at galleria and bought my parents the foot and back massager as my christmas present for them. Suddenly i felt like i want to buy a chocolate. So i headed to the chocolate section. Feeling surprised and confused, i saw dried mangoes hanging there in-line with the chocolates and candies. ironic huh?! *remembering... anyway, chocolate itself reminds me of her. Actually, i didn't purchased any chocolate. My mind changed. I just left watson and went to the fx terminal. Long lines. again.. what's new?! heller! so while waiting, im blocking of my mind from any unwanted thoughts. After a few minutes, an ambulance passed by. *remembering again.. i just ignored it. When i was already at the fx i heard kitchie nadal singing 'wag na wag..' hmm... ignored it again..
So now. today. yes, Ngayon. Today is different from yesterday. It should be. But why does this song 'never let u go' keep on playing/repeating here in the office? hmmm again.. signs? coincidence? accident? ambot lang. Labels: lyrics

sick EK day
Yesterday, my twin bros with their girls and me went to EK at Sta. Rosa, Laguna. And yes, I got no date. I was just their 'alalay' and photographer. Poor me.. hehe.. i actually volunteered myself coz i don't want to stay home.
It was a traffic saturday morning. We left the house at about 11am then headed to La Consolacion at Mendiola to fetch Seta/Zeta(not sure of the spelling). She's Ving's girl(hmm..courting stage pa lng ata..). Yep! Ving is my brother.. short for Erving. His twin's name is Jelvin. They're my 'bunso' brothers and im their kuya. este ate pla. hahaha.. =) Going back, it was almost past 12 noon when we reached La Co. Seta was nowhere to be found so we headed to dapitan near UST to fetch Liset, Jel's gf. Then went back to Mendiola again. So we headed asap to South expressway because my mom texted us about the traffic there. and yada! there goes the traffic. We're stucked. We reached Enchanted at about 4pm.
Ving, Seta, Liset and Jel.. Asan ako? wala tga picture lng e.
Going back again.. Our first ride is the flying fiesta. Then the wheel of fate..
a view while riding the wheel of fate...
wheel of fate's view of the space shuttle.
That's it. I only rode flying fiesta and wheel of fate because of my so-called sickness..arggh.. Jel and Liset went by themselves for their privacy 'daw'. I then left Ving and Seta. So im left by myself. walk..walk.. took pictures.. until night, until i got tired..
before night time strikes
Too tired.. I just went to the car and slept.. What an EK day huh,.Labels: travel

sadness is next to happiness?
My trip to cebu last sun- tues was a blast. Finally, i travelled alone..wohoooo!!! indeed a very nice and fulfilling experience. (nakakadry lng ng laway coz wla ako mkausap..hehe..)
my 1st flight alone!
himpapawid
i've already rested myself for 3 days..unwind galore.(took a leave) and of course, i met her.. =) my special someone...I kinda tour the city w/ her. Went to these places:
-- Ayala --> We ate at Bigby's (our first meal together; also the place where we saw Lucky Manzano "should have taken a picture of him. haha!"). Met Arthur and Ian (her dad and her dad's gf) afterwards..watched Bridget Jone's 2,
-- Sugbaan/Sugbuan (not sure of the word, basta ihawan in tagalog) --> ate dinner there w/ her dad and Ian..
--Mountain View --> after eating, we went to this place.. just like Antipolo, where you can take a good look at the whole city. Lamig lamig.. star and airplane gazing, took pics, stare, share stories, stare, smile, laugh, stare, stare...=)
--Market (i forgot the name) --> i bought danggit and dried mangoes for pasalubong. We then headed to another place..lakad lang.. 'Colon' - like a little divisoria. I tought that i could buy shirts w/ cebu print but we haven't seen a single.. --Sto. Niño Church--> saw this church on tv. Familiar, 'coz this is where the Sinulog is held..i think so.. We lit up candles, prayed, pumila for the sto.niño, prayed..--SM--> the look of the mall is no difference. same as the SM's here in manila. I just bought the t-shirts there for my 3 bros. ayus! then bought baked ziti and 2 pizzas for take-out.. candies din pla..=)-- Casbah resto (not sure of d name)--> We took c-sha. It's something w/c blows out flavored smoke. we went der w/ toni & mot2.. ate dinner.Yup that's it.. the 2 1/2 days isn't enough.. Hope i can go back there next time.. 'Oh happy days!!"taking pics on my way to the Mactan airport ...........Last night, I went to the dreaded airport. hay.. just don't want to express what i feel here..$%..*!.=+.. it's hard.. hoping.. i dunno.. come what may.. i hope she isn't just one of the passers-by.. to u.. see you again.. mingaw kaayu ko nimo...Over time, I've been building my castle of love Just for two, though you never knew you were my reason I've gone much too far for you now to say That I've got to throw my castle away Over dreams, I have picked out a perfect come true Though you never knew it was of you I've been dreaming The sandman has come from too far away For you to say come back some other day And though you don't believe that they do They do come true For did my dreams Come true when I looked at you And maybe too, if you would believe You too might be Overjoyed, over loved, over me Over hearts, I have painfully turned every stone Just to find, I had found what I've searched to discover I've come much too far for me now to find The love that I've sought can never be mine And though you don't believe that they do They do come true For did my dreams Come true when I looked at you And maybe too, if you would believe You too might be Overjoyed, over loved, over me And though the odds say improbable What do they know For in romance All true love needs is a chance And maybe with a chance you will find You too like I Overjoyed, over loved, over you, over you..
--------
Rain falls Dark clouds are racing up above I gaze in solitude Looking through a misty glass window 'Cause then it used to be the two of us This empty room Filled my thoughts with memories of you I turned and looked around Oh, but found no sight of you I guess it'll never be as true, no no ooh Starlight All I need is you tonight Oh, starbright Grant my wish tonight I'm beggin' you, starlightA ll I need is you tonight Hoh, starbright Get rid of the spell tonight, ooh Rain falls Dark clouds keep racing up above It's still in solitude Oh, longin' for you Guess my heart will always be with you My heart will always be with you..

a hardwork's worth
ok.. it's wednesday already.. a stormy and gloomy day because of 'yoyong'. Some business organizations already decided to let their employess go home. So what am i doing here? in this same old seat of mine here at the office?! i just wish..
---
I NEED A BREAK!! - yeah i really need one.. Just when i thought there would be a long weekend for me last sat, sun and mon.. I was wrong. Our boss gave us a rush project and the deadline is on tues. Got no choice. but to finish that project asap.. The project started just last fri. so we have 4 days to develop?! what the?!! heres what happened:
so fri, i worked from 9am up to 3am of sat. went home..
sat, from lunchtime until 7am of sun.. went home..
sun, from lunchtime until 11pm.. went home..
mon (holiday), from lunchtime up to 6am of tues
I've burned out all my energies.. If you think im richer by thousands??? i hope so.. hay.. i don't have any OT pays. Just allowances(transpo & food) which aren't enough. The holiday that should be double pay is just a joke. A joke. yes. a joke.. badtrip..
On a positive note, what i just got from it is the word, F_U_L_L_F_I_L_L_M_E_N_T. It's nice to think that my co-developer and I finished a project for 4 days. waaahhh... Last tuesday morning, i felt like i want to treat myself for a san mig light or red horse. I drove home 'ngarag' and nearly sleepy. I just talked to ina then slept until lunch time. Then wake up and left home for office at 2:30pm. A call center agent? me?! nah... but i felt like i was one. Anyway, i hope and pray that i won't face another rush project. Not again..
I hope typhoon Yoyong will stop..i'm planning for a trip to cebu this weekend.. Unwind..unwind..unwind..
