Then I See Tennessee

1/22/12

i havent had taken a bath at that time and the inner shirt and the tights havent left my body for two days. it's an impromptu decision to take a long ride to tennessee so i didn't get the chance to change my clothes. good thing it's winter, bacteria wont last longer for them to be able to leave offensive odor in my body.. oh, the undies, lets not talk about the undies. 

one of those winter days where the weather chose to be up

peaceful sunday, look how barren the city is

i ♥ imax. like very red ♥ imax!

me and tita susan

i love the quiet and the solemnity that the city offers on sunday

i lost my soul in this city

Friday

i don't need to get up tomorrow until i'm ready to

word!

i was looking for a best password that will comply the required number of characters that should compose of [big & small] letters and numbers. i really hate changing password coz i most likely will forget it on the next day than not. then there comes the grueling task of calling the help desk that though we speak the same language (english) but of different intonation that makes us so hard to understand each other. 

so, i think of a word that would best describe what i feel as of the moment so as for me to be able to remember it. and i came up with the saddest word i could imagine and that's how i got my new password! now it would serve as a daily reminder on how crappy i feel today and how my insides are starting to die! i never knew how sad i was 'til this "new password" thing!

true story

i talk more than i think

i'm too lazy to hold the 'shift' key that's why i usually don't capitalized letters

i'm a middle child, people don't notice me

i'm insecure - all the time

i'm lazy and messy and i'm trying not to

i have a twin, named forgetfulness

fly

for some reasons, i really really love this pic.

like i was born to take this photo.

i took it on the way to statue of liberty

the weather was not that cooperative coz it rains a little

but it's gloominess made the sky looked in just one hue

that made it so peaceful

is it just me or did i just brag a little?

T_T

i'm not okay. i'm having a bad cold and the free yogurt is not enough for a pick-me-up. i wanna go home and be reunited with my bed again. 

the medicine didn't help that much except making me sleepy. i must had drunk the non-non-drowsy one coz my eyes would shut down on it's own. did i mention that a tub of yogurt is sitting in front of me with lots and lots of almonds and m&ms and choco-peanuts?! yes, it's there with all of it's glory and still i'm longing of something else - my bed. yep, i am that kind of sick!! 

and i need to look busy so i am making nonsense post again!

that is not okey

i misspelled the word okay to okey. it's humiliating coz i've been using it since i knew it and it's just recently that i found out that mistake. for years, i've been writing it the wrong way! i didn't know why no one never ever told me about this and i have no idea how come i didn't know it when i always read it everywhere. i think it's because i am used to people who never used correct word spellings on texting. or i don't know, maybe i found the word too simple that it made me believe, i've got the spelling right.

and when you read my previous posts, you'll see that i'd committed this mistake almost every time i used that word. and i looooooooove using that word!

what's worse, i've been using it at work for four years. i've been composing/replying a thousands of emails to big bosses using that word! and sometimes, my replies were just compose of only that word - OKEY!

so, i give credit to the person who told me why i always wrote it that way. he must be that annoy coz he had always been one of the recipients of my okey emails. so, thanks to you, this would be the the last time that i will misspelled it.

zzzZZzzzz

i should be sleeping already, but the thought of going to new york this friday keeps bugging in and wont let me do so. it's almost 2am and i'm wildly awake. tossing and turning on the bed would just make my sheets more crumpled and i'm pretty sure my roommate wanted to kill me for every sound the bed produce every time i shifted. so, i left off my bed and here i am, blogging nonsense at almost 2 in the morning!

spring it on

it's first day of spring! and since google has celebrated it, might as well join the fun..

google never fails to amuse me!

i went home (from the office) earlier than the usual, and since, the rugrats (my hausmets, web, ebeb and yra) arent home yet, so, the other rugrat went outside and met the neighboring rugrats (jane and tintin)! 

we tour the neighborhood that consist of 12 (or more) apartments and realized that winter is finally over! twas 7pm already but the sun is still up. and as pinoys, there's always camera at hand to capture every moments possible!

the backyard

i love spring!

the driveway

is it just me or the tree looks better with me in it :P

the playground

the backyard lake

my muses

yep, that's a limo and that's our ride. hehehe.

honestly, i was starstruck at the limo that i couldn't help but touch it. we saw it on one of the tenant's parking lot and man... it was flawless. just a thought, if i have a limo on my own, i will hire it's own nanny.

helen

helen, georgia 03.04.2012

helen reminds me of my childhood fantasies of hanzel and gretel and the bread house! the buildings are so unique and good that i forgot to pick up my jaw! i certainly wanna go back there if given the chance!

i was more asleep than awake on the whole 2-hour drive. tsk, such a bad company.

Web took this pic and i am posting this coz i find it cute. hehehe. give a chance, i rarely gave myself a compliment! plus, i like the moving  view outside :)

those buildings are stalls/boutiques, aren't they cute?

lurv it!

feels like i was in fairytalelandia!

mr cannon

i mourn the death of my new friend, mr cannon. i've had him for two months and now he's dead. he suffered the same fate with my sister's laptop, which of course, i, too was the murderer! i dropped him and with his vulnerability, he couldn't suffer such violence :((

now, i add a new entry to the list of my hobbies and that is breaking gadgets.

here's the last job mr cannon had perfectly done before his goodbye!

taken at helen, georgia 

at this very spot i ended his life (pic taken from tita susan's cam)

on a lighter note, helen was heaven and is entitled to have a separate blog entry solely dedicated to her beauty :)

:O

tell me, who's wallet wouldn't magically open upon reading this? let's not even go down with the interest part! 

with the crazy project sked we have, there's nothing more important to louis than to write this thing on his office bulletin board that would surely cost my honor!

bayad nalang ta ani jud!

date a girl who doesn't care about fashion

Date a girl who doesn't know how to dress coz a girl who doesn't know how to dress doesn't go in a date late. Actually, she's never ever been late. With just a shirt and jeans to put-on, she'll be done before you know it. She doesn't need to worry about what to wear. Why, with ten decent blouses and half of them are in the hamper, there aren't that plenty for her to choose from. Coz what hides in her closet are dresses good for a couple of weeks then repeat!

Find a girl who doesn't live her life in fashion coz a girl like her doesn't have a bad temper. She's always cheerful, why wouldn't she be? She had a good night sleep the night before and didn't wake up early to do her hair. She wouldn't trade an extra 30 minutes of sleep for an overly coiffed hair. Never!

Date a girl who mismatches dresses a lot that makes her best friend go nuts. You'd always seen her underdress on several occasions on so many occasion. Do not ever think this girl did not know that, coz she always did but she couldn't just give a single hell of a crap to care. She opt for comfiness, not a near-death situation with killer heels.

She doesn't paint (as what she fondly calls it) her face. Of course she has make-ups too big it wont fit in any kits. She has sunshine as her blush-on and a good night sleep as her concealer. Yup, smile, too - nothing goes wrong with a handful of that!

She may hates perfumes - that makes her nauseous for no apparent reason. Maybe its because of the strong odor it has or the fact that a single bottle would cost almost half of her salary!

Sure enough she has insecurities, full of them. Though she doesn't want to go in a party with you, that doesn't mean she likes you less. It's just that, a girl who lacks fashion would feel dwarfed and bored by all the pretty girls in hot red lips and sparkling sequin frocks.

Who says a girl with no fashion sense is boring?! Talk to her, she's pretty much equipt! Yes, she knows the ways of the world. She'd spend her free time learning everything but beauty care what a fashionable girl would spent on thinking ways on how to outdo her frenemy at the next party.

You must be that lucky if she'd find you interesting coz a girl like her is very hard to impress. She sees no superficial beauty. She sees what's inside and that's what is more important to her. Never impressed her with your new blue suede shoes coz she can't tell the difference if that's from the Carbon market or from a highly praised designers worshipped by elite.

Look for a just and plain girl. Give time to get to know her. You'll see how extraordinaire she is. She has toughness that had her polished through time. She wouldn't give up easily. She had a lifetime of practice over bullies mocking her old shoes handed down from her older sister.

Never will you find it hard to look for a gift suited for a girl who has no fashion taste. Coz a girl like her is very easy to please. So, on your first fight, you don't need versaces and vuittons to win her back. Coz a way to this kind of girl's heart is always through her stomach. Bribe her with chocolates or bring her to the newly opened Italian restaurant two blocks away. She'll love it, I know she will! She'll never mind how it would make her stomach bloats. Baggy jeans and shirt will hide it anyway. And sometimes flowers will do. Sometimes!

Be prepared to be surprise coz once in her life, this girl would be willing to go through hell and do all the fashion magazines advertised. She'd be willing to get her face painted. She'd bargained her life for killer heels. She'll suffer a gown that is so tight it feels like it gives her a mammogram. she'll go through hell for just once in her life and that is when she'll promised you all her I dos. Coz this kind of girl would do hell just for her man on their wedding and beyond. and if you're that lucky, you'd learn that she undergone a dreading process of waxing on your first night together as a couple. Just for once, just for once.

So, the next time you'll see a girl like her, date her. Love her. Grow old with her growing old with grace. No misfigured eyebrows tattooes ruined by sag-aged skin and a botox-free smile readied at your glimpse.

If I were you, I'd spend my lifetime to this kind of girl who is very nice to kiss to. No greasy lipstick on her lips and no mud-taste foundation on her cheeks! If I were you, I'll surely will!
