stupid supertyphoon. bleh. angelo and i have a date on friday! and i have other plans too! don't let me be stuck here at home!!!!!!!!!!wesh just told me that bboy won a couple of awards at the cinema one awarding ceremony. words can't describe how proud i am of him, so i'm committing to a night of celebration on monday before he goes back to davao. :)
tagaytay on the 15th! yayness, i'm so excited. :D
i'm so thankful i have my early morning friends.. despite the rocky start to my day, they always manage to make me smile or brighten up my day before work begins. so thanks thanks, you guys know who you are and why i'm thanking you. :)
i got my 2nd starbucks planner last monday night! marc's so kuripot, he couldn't even give me a kiss in exchange for the planner! anyhoo, two planners down, two more to go..

i think i got confused tonight.it's not easy to just stop crushing on someone so yes, i still do have a crush on him. but i've found out something that really turns me off.. it's something that not even love can overcome. trust me, i've tried.
things between us have been changing too.. we've stopped talking, and he seems really distant. it used to be so easy to talk to each other, but it's been requiring more effort recently. it's a little sad, but maybe this is for the best.
on the other hand, there's someone i know i can NEVER end up with, someone i wasn't attracted to in the beginning. recently, i've been finding myself drawn to him.. it's not exactly romantic, but i know it can go in that direction. and i know that it'll end up in heartbreak, because it really can never be.
*sigh* stupid matters of the heart.

thursday night was the premiere of bboy's movie Huling Balyan ng Buhi in Megamall Cinema 1. although i was sick, i couldn't stand the thought of missing it. met up with weshie, eddie and ani in wetzel's pretzels, where dianne followed. almost everyone was there --- joyce, ani, vittorio (and friend), weshie, eddie, rome and jilliane (finally got to meet her!). it was a fun night of catch-ups. i missed everyone. :)
i want to watch the movie again. i'm also really proud of bboy. two unrelated and unconnected sentences.
********************
i'm sick. and not in the head, nor the heart. i'm sick for real. got a sore throat, bad cold, painful tooth, the works. i hope i get thinner though. ;p

the week that was.we finally have got the endorsement of the cbcp for my project!!!! :D i can't tell you how happy i am. i've worked so hard to get their endorsement, and we finally have it!
spent every night this week either hanging out or talking to friends, so i'm a happy camper. :D
there's so much to write about.. but tonight, i think i'll let my mind and emotions take a rest. besides, it's 6 feet under.

a belated (cos it's the 16th na) happy birthday to my bestest friend in the whole wide world, dianne! i love you!another belated happy birthday to a dear friend and namesake cris garcia!
and a happy birthday to the beeyootifull janelle and to carl! :D
just got home from an impromptu birthday celebration with dianne, kuya mark and his friend cess. FINALLY got to experience dianne driving---what she likes to call viajeng langit. it was a riot.
dianne: whee! bugbugbugbugbug *while driving over the reflectors on the road*
kuya mark: bugbugbug ka jan, di ka kaya magmove para di ka na nagddrive sa reflectors!
decided to hang out at the starbucks near tiendesitas after going shopping in tiende cos we heard it was nice. couches all over the place! here's to "pa-cute", pretend conversations, my crush with no name, and to wooden, cube-shaped "hearts" and putting it all back together. <3
here, have my heart.
pictures from last friday:
p.s. guess who the happy owner of a starbucks planner is.. :D :D :D :D
Tuesday, November 14 x 1:00 AM
16 down, 5 more stickers to go. planner, here i come!!!hung out with eddie in pearl this evening. we talked about.. stuff. he had some really good insights, i think i will do what you said to do. :)
last friday was a riot, had dinner in haiku with rinatots, then irvin picked us and dianne up, then we headed off to videoke the night away in promenade. omg, i can't believe irvin has a video of me singing to jann arden's insensitive. the horror. pictures to follow. :D
after dropping rina off at home, the drinking threesome (irvin, dianne and i) headed off to metrowalk for some more drinks. next time, i won't be in office attire.
saturday found me in sm hypermarket for dinner. blast from the past: my childhood crush was the performer at taste asia. he's still cute, he still sings and plays the guitar really well. i had my back turned to him, so hopefully he didn't recognize me.
i watched the la salle - ateneo homegrown games sunday. sadly, ateneo lost.. twice. but at least i got to see a college crush at the games.. heeheehee. :D
lately i've been asked, like, a million times, by different people, "why don't you have a boyfriend?" i don't know, because i don't? and why does everyone want to set me up? not that i'm mad or anything, i'm just a little curious. do i have a big sign that says "i need a man?"
Friday, November 3 x 11:34 PM
i SHOULD count my blessings, shouldn't i? i was just reading someone else's blog, and his/hers was so full of happy bullshit (when i know for a fact it's just a put-on [lies.. somebody's been naughty, santa's not going to be pleased..]), and mine's so full of emo crap when i have so much to be happy about. so let's call a spade a spade, shall we?"and you'll fall asleep
counting your blessings..."
yep, it's christmas in starbs. i went in this morning and it was all christmasy goodness.. completely different from what it looked like when i left last night. according to rhea (whose last day in jupiter's on sunday.. :'c) she, iya, pops and beejay stayed till 3am to decorate. good job guys. :) hmm.. maybe i could suggest that they put mistletoe somewhere inside..
marvin and kim duped me into thinking marvin had a picture in the planner.. and gullible little me believed them. boo. ;p
last saturday, i was supposed to have a full day. coffee in the morning with dianne and hs friends, lunch with wesh and eddie in shang, costume designing with dianne in the afternoon, coffee with ninna, and a costume party at temple with kay. but what did i do?..
i slept. the whole freaking day.

not-so mental note to self: buy a new keyboard for this pc. and a new mouse too. this computer looks so sucky compared to my brothers' pc.
********************
work is fine, i'm just waiting for the proposals from market! market! and festival mall, and for our fedex account to be approved. then it's *almost* smooth sailing from there. ok, not so smooth. that means that i'll be swamped with the work i can't do while the proposals and account are pending.
you know what's worse than being swamped with work?
not having much to do.

a quotable quote from the insightful movie harold and kumar:
(after harold chickens out of talking to maria, his OOA)
kumar: you're worthless, man.
harold: i'm not worthwhile.
********************
things between my crush and myself are fine. actually, they're pretty good. he's been less moody, more friendly and consistent nowadays. but friendly and consistent may be colored in an entirely new context.
i think he sees me as a little sister.
oh the tragedy! it hasn't been confirmed, but i've been wondering about that for quite some time. i mean, constantly picking on each other could mean that:
a) we have a really kindergarten way of showing that we like each other
b) we're comfortable enough with each other
c) i'm the little sister he never had / got to pick on
although we do have our serious moments too. come to think of it, i think he's the only person with whom i've had a serious, heartfelt conversation with. and by conversation, i mean that we both shared personal thoughts and feelings with each other.
but then, i don't want to fool myself into thinking that i'm special. i'd like to think that i'm a friend. :)
yeah, i missed blogging. :)
