I receive this text from an unknown Sun number: I’m wishing you happiness. And I’m so thankful sa love na pinakita mo. Magiging masaya ka din uli. At don’t worry, mabubuo uli yung family na you always save. Feeling all panicky and alarmed and even puzzled, I hastily text, “Who’s this?” The reply? Sorry wrong [...]

Happened last Friday, during work. Ate Laarni was a college dormmate; she’s now a practicing physical therapist in Long Island. She’ll be coming home this October to get married. Ahurm-ahurmm, yeah, I’m part of her entourage. Ate Laarni: Pam, Q nga ba ang middle initial mo? Me: Y. Ate Laarni: Para sa invitations. Me: Y [...]

farewell, president cory
August 10th, 2009 · No Comments
I’d always felt downcast about not being able to watch any of President Cory Aquino’s tributes (save for the very first one which I was able to watch live) on TV. I would either be asleep or out of the house during those program’s time slots. The day of her burial, I was thinking that [...]

… Ignoring is the best approach… playing blind, dumb, & deaf is the best way to to deal with somebody… being apathetic is the best method to protect yourself… Song of the day: “I Don’t Care” >> 2NE1.

Dan and I ran out of ciggies in the middle of Dani’s party, so we went to a 7-11 store near GMA 7. I told the cashier what I wanted, and then he goes, “Ma’am, ilang taon na po kayo?” I tell him I’m 27, and he looks at me in disbelief. WTF?!? I know [...]

Just got back from Dani’s semi-surprise birthday party. It super friggin’ rocked! Since the party was held in the GMA Kamuning area, I had to limit my drinks to a beer and three cocktails. I didn’t get drunk beyond oblivion (synonym: Kem, ahahaha!) but I had tons of fun. Will post the pics as soon [...]

kpop invades the philippines… [or at least, unionbank plaza]
August 2nd, 2009 · No Comments
Sometime this week, I went on a yosi break with Dani, Dan, and Hans as I always do. Upon entering the smoking area of Dell’s Food Hall on the 10th floor of Unionbank Plaza, I heard the chorus of “Nobody” by the Wonder Girls playing. I wondered if I had my phone and bluetooth headset [...]

**Image taken from www.pcij.org** Today at 3:18 AM, the former president has succumbed to cardiac arrest, after a 16-month-long battle with colon cancer. I am greatly saddened by this but somehow feel happy that she can finally rest in peace. No more pain, no more suffering. I want to think of this as a new [...]
