we broke up.
you know it's going to end somehow.
had this happened a few years ago, i'd cry buckets of tears and say overdramatic and potentially nasty statements. im not that girl anymore.
four words: seventeen months well spent.

run downs
ok, here's what i've been doing lately...
- went to macau a couple of months ago. i was supposed to go to guilin for easter, but after a seemingly endless saga of drama, i opted for macau instead. maybe i'll post pictures in the next entry. we watched cirque de soleil's zaia, then the usual lamon sessions with the salvador family. and it's nice to know that my friend annie has a bf! a finnish to be exact... aaahhhh... see what happens when you wait? she's really in love!
- after our macau trip, we went camping to wan tsai. we've been planning on going to hk campsites for months, but we were so lazy that we couldn't give up the comfort of our flat. we had the courage and went ahead after macau and it was really nice. i bought a super cheap tent and it rained on the night we were there. we barely slept because we took turns wiping the inside part of the tent. that's what you get for being a cheapo-- sleep deprivation! we loved it nevertheless and we are 'serious' campers now. we got all the accessory sheez.. and a much better tent! we are now looking forward to our fourth hike!
- watched 'cats' the musical. can i just say awesome? i paid for the cheapest ticket, and i can barely see their faces, but still... it's a very good production. singers are very good. choreography is very good. i didn't understand the story at all, but you'll just be amazed at the magic of actors in cat costumes. really really good.
- went to the 'dragon boat festival'. it would have to be my fourth dbf, but this year was my first time to actually watch the boats go off. nothing really fantastic about it. it's as what you imagined it to be - about ten people or so rowing per boat, plus a drummer doing the beat. it was raining heavily that time, and we were on a spectators' boat. so just imagine riding through the waves for hours! but it was fun overall. you get to catch up with friends and have a good lunch from the company sponsored buffet!
- enrolled in a cantonese class. warhar!!! now my officemates are whispering behind my back. they fear that i may understand them talking nasty things about me. they used to point at me and say something in cantonese in an alarming tone. the power of knowledge! i like my teacher. very soft spoken and he seems humble.
- can now say that i am no longer longing for haagen dazs ice cream. firstly, it's bloody expensive. i only buy it when i share it with friends. but my china trips enabled me to go to the most expensive hotel (we needed to show off to the customer, you know) in ningbo, and they have a super nice buffet.. i've never eaten so many sushis in my life. i really smelt like salmon after eating. and... and there's a haagen dazs booth! be a 'sorbetero' and serve yourself. one scoop for every-time-you-felt-like-buying-it-but-it's-so-darn-expensive-you'd-rather-let-it-go-and-buy-something-else-that-won't-make-you-feel-ripped-off. i can't remember how many scoops i've eaten, but i can now say i've had enough of haagen dazs. it's really not so different from other ice creams that you find in the supermarket. it's just the perceived value. i'd trade it for selecta ice cream any time of the day. how many people can say that?! and i did it for free! yey! hurray to buffets!
- re-enrolled in the gym.. hopefully by next yr's summer, i can wear my bikinis again! if not, that's ok. i'd still love my body. i just like going to the gym. i only had to worry about counting every sit up, and the sauna!!! oh how i missed the sauna! it's the best way to clear your head. also, i feel most beautiful after i leave the gym. i make myself believe that i shed some calories, i took a long bath, im technically stress free, and i had plenty of time blowdrying my hair -- just the perfect recipe for natural beauty.
- participated in the public reading of 'noli me tangere' as part of the the celebration of phil arts festival. i did the same thing before i went to hk but this time i was assigned an entire chapter, as opposed to two pages in instituto cervantes.
aaaahhh! time to face reality. have a paper due in two days! i got the cycling shorts and hair curler by the way. and i impulsively bought a new blazer. i must be on a starvation period earlier than expected. i spent my half month allowance in 24 hrs!

my shopping list for tom...
yeheeey! sweldo time na naman! grabe kahapon, wala talagang laman ang wallet ko kung hindi cards! as in walang bills! wala akong choice kung di magprito ng itlog for dinner. nilagyan ko na lang ng sibuyas para magkalasa. andami kaseng impulse purchases e. di ko din alam, 10 days akong wala sa hk this month. 10 days na libre lahat ng expenses ko. pero sumosobra pa din ako sa allowance ko for the month. aaaahhh... the 'joys' of living on your own.
pero bakit ba, i need to reward myself for all the bloody hard work that i do.
and... and... holiday tom!!! that means an extra time to go shopping. my wish list for my feeling mayaman shopping day tom. first half year gifts for myself.
1) a k-swiss sorta sporty casual watch on sale
2) cycling shorts - have i said i went back to the gym? yes, by summer next year, payat na siguro ulit ako. sana di pa inaamag ung mga nakatagong skinny clothes ko nun. i tried spinning yesterday, nascratch ang aking butt crack. ang sakit tuloy pag naiihi ako..
3) medyo far fetched pero malay naten: underwater camera... gusto ko na talaga ng canon d10!
4) electric hair curler - i found this youtube girl and she gives hair tutorials. she's really good. quick makeover here we go!
5) thermasilk shampoo and conditioner - for hair curling pa din.
o ciao ciao na... im still cramming for my paper on hrm. 2 out of 8 chapters pa lang natatapos ko. and i have to finish the paper before friday. taktesh!

justify this...
why am i bloody saving all my hard earned money?
oh yes, for the future...
but it wouldn't hurt if i gratify myself once in a while, right?
i want an underwater camera! will buy soon, as in before the week ends. why do i have to wait when i know i will buy one eventually? i can enjoy it now.
more reasons to go to the beach. more reasons to enjoy summer.

gloomy lately
things are stable right now. i mean i dont have any new traumatic experiences lately. my life is sooo zest-less at the moment. no drama, no life changing moment.. nuthin!
i cannot even have new things to write about. got some things going on here and there... but im too exhausted and too preoccupied with really senseless things that i'd rather lock myself in my room and watch (sshhhh) sex scandals. see? im that disconcerted that i even went that low. :p
anyway, ill update you once i feel like doing so.
the things that are in my head right now would be lose weight, finish my school papers and get a super cool summer tan! rain rain, just come on weekdays, ok? im really getting fed up with you. dont ruin everybody's weekend! i think lack of vitamin d is getting in my nerves. oh, i want an underwater camera, too!
meanwhile, let me finish this quotation on some plates. oh god, i hate plates.
