new baby showing off
my first shots from my nikon d90. could have been more but the uber cold winter weather prevented us from doing so. after ten shots we just went back to the mall and tried wii. anyone got wii? i can go to your house and play that thing all day long!
a while ago i was thinking of buying pansit from the pinoy store in central. it's only ten bucks but i opted not to. i am THAT broke. i cannot even buy myself a decent meal! freaking hobby. it drains you to your last cent. but come on, with shots like these... sometimes, it's worth every penny.
no photoshop. click to enlarge and understand why hk is called the 'city of lights'.

insecure?
kinita ni b ung anak nya kanina. mailang daw ung bata pero mukha namang natuwa sya nung nakita nya ung baby nya for the first time. im trying to be this cool girl friend asking how it was. it was a thing of the past, and there's no choice but to live up to the responsibilities. at least that's how i tell myself to see it. pero syet, ang daming pumapasok sa utak ko. paranoia at its finest. it's different pag magkasama kame, away from it all. pero ngayon ang dami talagang pumapasok sa utak ko. i've never been this insecure.
what if the baby asks me to leave her father?
what if he leaves me just to carry on with the family?
what if we end up together, will i end up a good stepmother?
syet ito pala feeling ng kabit.
am i too young to be dealing with this drama? i know i am.
am i sensible enough to remedy the problem? i know i am.
tang inang love yan... aaaaaahhhhhhh!!!
lord, kailangan ko ng kausap!

boring weekend
b went back to pinas yesterday, so that means i have the weekend all to myself. ill be eating crappy food again because my chef is on holidays. it'll be a quiet weekend because i've got nobody to wrestle and nobody fighting with me for the remote or the laptop.
well ill just spend the next few days packing for my trip. bohol here i come! samahan mo pa ng anawangin at capones! at pati intramuros and manila bay! hopefully pati UP! haaaayyy, lahat i-squeeze in na!
nga pala, i just had the most exciting purchase for this year. wala na nga ako makain dahil sobrang broke ko, pero kebs na. ung ATM ko, sakto lang sa maintaining balance nya. wala pa kong pang pocket money! pero talagang naaliw ako sa shoes na to! di na lang ako kakain hanggang umuwi ako sa friday. puro noodles na lang. hehe.
drool over 'em handpainted shoes:

bakit mukha akong buntis? ang taba taba taba ko na. more than half of my closet itinago ko na sa mini bodega ko. at lahat un pang office! napilitan tuloy akong bumili ng bagong damit na mas malaki pa sa size ng nanaj ko.
at dahil uuwi na ko in two weeks, at aawayin ako ng nanaj ko at bestfriend ko pag di ako nag lose ng konting weight man lang, ill be on an oatmeal dinner diet. haha! niloloko ko na naman sarili ko. nung dating sinubukan ko maging vegetarian, bumigay ako after two days! good luck! peste naman kase tong flu na to, isang linggo na tuloy ako makapagwork out. gaaaarrrr.

2009 mantra
i got this forwarded email and this should be my mantra for this year of the tiger.
i quote:
If you want something, nothing can stop you.
Don’t leave your life up to fate or destiny or whatever.
It’s always your choice. Take charge.
Do what you can do now.
Do what makes you happy.
And to hell with the consequences, if you get bitten then you will know it wasn’t for you.
At least there won’t be any regrets or what if’s.
There is always a risk, but not taking that risk is an ever bigger risk.
my agenda for this year:
1. learn japanese - i got like 5 references already. including cd's, but so far i can only say arigato, sushi, sashimi, teriyaki, teppanyaki. it's not so obvious that i frequent japanese restos, haha! time to get serious about nihonggo!
2. become a good trainer for enrich - tomorrow i will be taking the training for trainer for the course confidence and communication. it's a surprise why they think i can take this task when i am really shy and lack self confidence. but it's an honour giving something back.
3. learn how to play the keyboard - i got my keyboard since nov 07, but i havent touched it until now.
4. learn how to play the bongo - im predicting that 2009 will be a year of music. why? why not?! :)
5. enroll in an open university - development communications or social work? hmmmm...
6. save up at least 40% of my salary every month. hopefully by 2014 i can save enough money for our 'clinic business'
that's all i can think of right now. im looking forward to the surprises, challenges and blessings for 2009! so come on 2009! bring 'em on!

my 299th post: a look back on 2008
ok, enough of my christmas bonus for the meantime. i was not able to ask my boss as of yesterday. i may or may not. si batman ang bahala. i am in touch with a british lady now regarding a job prospect. it's a job that would require me to return to manila. let's see what happens.
in a span of two years, i am now a post away from my 300th entry. i want my next entry to be good. "good" in a sense that it signifies my desire for an optimistic year ahead.
2007 may be a year for travel for me. it's a year of discovery of the world, of proving my ability in my job overseas. it was a good year for me. it was a lucky year for the 1983-born people anyway.
2008 is different. i call it the "year of surprises".
- who would have thought that a shy girl will be a writer, event host, NGO trainer, theatre actress? all realized in the same year! woohoo!
- meeting celebrities. from chocoleit to sarah geronimo. from manny villar to aheemmmm... president gloria arroyo! seryoso! i was invited to this event with a few hundred pinoy in marriott hotel. i dont know why i did not write that in my blog. but yeah, it was sometime june.
- meeting international celebrities. they have to be separated from above.
- a dream travel in pinas. i will always love coron.
- first try on some sports. kayak. windsurf. squash. i so love squash. i vowed to do it every week.
- getting a bf. you know, despite the shemexes about how we got together and all the shits that came with it, i am so lucky to have him. i got a cleaner, a cook, a serenader, a photography teacher, a travel buddy, a listener, and a fellow dreamer. we may fight every two seconds, but we both know that those are just some excuses for a ravishing make up later in the day.
so cheers to a new year! let's see what 2009 has to offer.
