Unang una kong comment...

Puti pala si Robon Thicke.

My gosh. Akala ko African-American sha. Hahaha. Parang hindi bagay yung itsura nya sa boses nya. Para kasi siyang Prince na pinaputi. Wahaha. :) Wala, nagulat lang ako.

Second comment...

Astig talaga yung Idol Gives Back. It's the biggest pop event on TV ever. And they raised almost $70 million to give to Africa and to different communities in the States! They should do something like that here. Pero hindi ata gagana yun dito. Gagawin lang publicity opportunity yun ng mga politika, at mawawala yung inspirational message nya. Boo. Boo to myself, too for not believing that it could work here. Tsk.

Third comment...

Goodbye, Phil. I knew early-on na matatanggal sha ng maaga. Pero maganda yung performance nya kagabi eh. Sayang. Kung kelan pa sha gumagaling eh dun pa sha natanggal. Oh well. Ang ganda nung background song sa tribute video kay Phil. I Stand By You by Carrie Underwood. The same song they used for her video in last week's Idol Gives Back.

Fourth comment...

SHET NAMAN!!! It's between Blake and Chris! Wag namaaaaan. :( Hu. Pero kung papipiliin ako, mas gusto kong manatili si Blake. Please please please, wag sana matanggal si Blake! I'm a Blaker! Hehe. :)

Then...the result...

Aaaaaah! Goodbye Chris Richardson. Cutie-who-looks-short-pero-matangkad-pala. I guess I was kind of expecting it after his performance last night. Between Blake's awesome, original, out of this world performance, and Chris' consistently nasal-y performance, it's expected that Chris would go home. Too bad.

And finally...

Go Blake! Blake and Melinda for top 2! Woot-woo!

Happy Non-Working Holiday

Since it's a holiday and I have a lot of time to blog, this entry will be an assortment of sorts. :D

* * * *

I've had a full morning, and it's only 8:00 a.m.

5:45 a.m. – Woke up, abruptly ending my dreams (which, to my recollection, were pretty nice)
6:00 a.m. – Left the house
6:05 – Witnessed the motorcycle in front of me topple over after he tried to take a sharp left.
6:15 – Loaded gas at Shell C5
6:20 – Arrived in Makati
6:25 – Overshot Pasong Tamo, and took a wrong turn into Osmena Highway.
6:35 – Arrived at MLV's house, gave the CD to her dad
6:40 – Drove off.
6:50 – Ordered breakfast at McDonald's Fort Bonifacio drive-thru.
7:30 – Arrived at home. Ate my breakfast.

Wow. Sana ganito lang kadali ang biyahe papuntang Makati araw-araw.

I was planning to sleep once I got home, but the easy drive lifted my spirits a bit, and I am not the least bit sleepy now. Hay.

Will watch Shooter and Spiderman 3 in a couple of hours. Whee. :)

* * * *

Food trip!

Roti Mum.

They're not kidding when they say that they have the best coffee buns around.
Ahhhh. So nice. I could get addicted to these. :)

They just opened a branch in Megamall (next to Powerbooks). Try it!

* * * *

I've recently been addicted to Hershey's milk chocolate. As in, papapakin ko sa office yung Hershey's kisses, or the chocolate bar. Not good for my figure. And my wallet. But very good for my disposition. Chocolate = happiness.

* * * *

Yun lang. :)

Happy Non-Working Holiday!

Statement Retraction

I would like to apologize for the wrong information I posted in my blog about the Grey's Anatomy spin-off.

Sad to say, Sean Faris is not part of the official cast (where the heck did I get that idea anyway? Darn internet spews senseless facts everywhere. Hehe). Sayang. My mind has gotten used to imagining Sean as McHottie in the series. Hahaha. :D

Chris Lowell, however, is in the cast (hurrah!), and I've got pictures to prove it. Siya ata yung resident cutie dun eh. Hahaha. Wow. :)

Music To My Ears

Silent Sanctuary had a gig at Saguijo Makati last night, and I finally had a chance to watch them (lapit kasi sa office! Buti na lang). Haven't been able to watch live band gigs in a long time (the last one being Itchyworms in Aklan), and I forgot how fun it could be. Beer, friends, live music – who could go wrong with that?

Anyway, since I'm in such a Silent Sanctuary high, I'm lengthening and reposting my CD review entry. Enjoy!

* * * *

Silent Sanctuary’s new album entitled Fuchsiang Pag-Ibig is a must-have. Sobrang sulit. And the following are the reasons why:

- Ikaw Lamang by Silent Sanctuary has been playing over the radio for several weeks now, and I never tire of listening to it. It's their first single, and the reason why I bought their CD in the first place. The way they incorporate classic instruments (violin and cello) into the contemporary rock sound is pleasantly surprising to the ears.

- Summer Song is a sweet, reggae tune that sounds like sun, sand, and piña coladas are streaming out of your speakers. The notes are light and smooth, and the lyrics are so reminiscent of summer love. This is to be my anthem for Summer 2007. Now all I need is a hammock in a beach setting, and someone to sit beside me. Ahhh. :)

- Another light, fun song is Pink 5ive. The melody is the "bop your head along with the beat" kind, and it tells the story of the elusive girl codenamed "Pink 5ive." It jumpstarts the listener with a bubble-gum happy tune, and then the happiness trails off with a slow, despondent theme. "Mga superhero'y sinungaling din..." Again, a song that showcases opposite ends of the emotional pole. :)

- Technically, “kundiman” is the Philippines’ signature love song, generally expressing the forlorn lament of a faithful lover pining for his beloved (shempre rinesearch ko pa yan). Silent Sanctuary's Kundiman is a love song that gives justice to the technical definition of the term. It is a song which uses a lot of playful lyrics, my favorite of which is "para kang unan / pinapainit mo ang aking tiyan." Hehe. But despite the use of comedic, seemingly silly words to woo the girl in the stanzas, the chorus is bittersweet in its message of devotion: "Hindi ako lalayo / Dahil ang tanging panalangin ko ay ikaw..."

- The phrase “ingat ka” is so commonly used as parting words that the underlying sweetness of its message is overlooked. The song “Ingat Ka” reminds you of that good feeling you get when someone is concerned enough to tell you to take care. It is an unexpected favorite song of mine. I guess part of why I like it is because I would want someone to dedicate this song to me when I leave for graduate studies in the future. Ang sarap kasi makarinig ng "ngiti mong kay ganda / siguradong mamimiss kita" pag aalis ka na, diba? Hehe. :)

- “14” is track number 14 in a CD with a total of 12 songs (Go figure!). Like the rest of the album, it’s sweet, it’s sad, and it rocks! The lyrics are nicely written, and knowing what “14” actually means gives it an extra kilig factor. ;) It’s the kind of song you would want to sing (with feelings, dapat) when you’re sad, frustrated, or feeling sentimental (pag gusto mong mag-emote, kumbaga...).

- One of my guilty-pleasures is Rebound, a poppy-happy sounding song with an undertone of melancholy and desperation (which is what love is, really). The way the strings are introduced right after the line "o kay bilis naman magsawa ng puso mo" makes the heart soar and sink at the same time. Beautiful contrast.

And that's what Silent Sanctuary is all about (for me, anyway). A band of beautiful contrast. Stringing together pleasure and pain; singing about the sweetness of love and the agony of it.

It's like being pulled simultaneously in opposite directions (kasiyahan, kalungkutan), and loving every minute of it. Astig talaga. :)

Buy the album. Listen to the songs (especially the ones I mentioned above). I guarantee you'll be asking for more.

*P.S. Thanks to the band for signing my CD cover at the Saguijo gig! Hope you have more Makati gigs in the future! :)

Imagine...

My Daydream...:)

Virginia Gun Massacre

This is such a tragedy.

Why do acts of violence as extreme as this happen? What's sad is, the people who got killed didn't do anything to warrant this kind of death. They were killed because of what? Because a stranger couldn't take the pressure? Because their classmate was crazy enough to suddenly want to kill anything in his path? Because they decided to attend class that morning to learn? They were killed simply because they were at the wrong place at the wrong time.

I really don't understand why some people are driven into this kind of "killing spree" insanity. I don't know the exact facts, but I'm pretty sure that another US school shooting happened several years back. What could be the constant factor here? The US educational system is too difficult? Teachers expect too much from their students? Peer pressure? Bullies? The need for attention? One last hurrah – the "I-think-I'll-go-kill-as-many-people-as-I-can-before-killing-myself" kind of hurrah? I'm sure the psychologists around the world are having a field day trying to figure out the psychological reason behind all this.

Whatever the reason may be, the harsh truth is, 33 people are dead. I don't know them personally, but I really feel for the family and friends they left behind. Imagine thinking that your kid is at school and then finding out later that day that he was gunned down inside the classroom – the last place on earth you'd expect to be remotely dangerous. It's crazy. :(

Are there any more safe places left in the world?

Bagong Pag-Asa

"Prince William and Kate Middleton have broken up."

Sad, sad news. Kawawa naman si Kate. She probably can't wallow in depression like normal broken-hearted girls, what with the paparazzi swarming around her after this piece of news. Boo.

It must be hard to be criticized for not being good enough for a Prince...And then, once you've broken up, you get criticized for being daft enough to let a catch like that go. Tuh. That has to suck.

On the other hand, this means Wills is single again. And I'm sure a lot of Princess wannabes are secretly rejoicing and plotting their ascent to the British throne. :P

Hmmm.

I knew it was a mistake to forego my graduate studies in UK this year. Hehe.


Cute pic. Just had to post it. :)

Spin-Off!

What do you get when you cross my favorite characters from Grey's Anatomy and Life As We Know It?

*

Addison Montgomery's spin-off TV series!

(which might be entitled Private Practice. A play on Addison's specialty in obstetrics and gynecology, perhaps?)

Hurray!

Kate Walsh's character, Addison Montgomery is the perfect person (out of all the Grey's Anatomy cast) to lead a TV series: beautiful, elegant, headstrong. I've always liked her. McDreamy is a McIdiot anyway. Ellen Pompeo, who plays Meredith Grey in Grey's Anatomy, is reportedly pissed that Addison gets her own spin-off (/me tries to suppress evil laughter).

Chris Lowell (who also plays Piz in Veronica Mars) is goofy-cute. Kinda geeky, kinda awkward sometimes. But a cutie, nonetheless. I love his character in Veronica Mars (and in Life As We Know It, of course)...I wonder if he'll be typecast as the goofy intern in the spin-off show.

Sean Faris is hot. Younger, taller, prettier Tom Cruise. Eeeeee. He could be the show's McHottie. Wahahaha. I was watching Sleepover in Star Movies the other day (out of boredom, I swear), and I was pleasantly surprised to see Sean (close kami) as the lead male opposite Alexa Vega (of Spy Kids fame). The story was kinda shallow, very unlikely to happen (as most HS romantic comedies are), but very kilig. HS hunk falls for geeky freshman. Woooh. *sigh* :)


The show is set to air on May 3, 2007.

Aaaaahh. I can't wait. :)

Dream on.

I was wrong all along. I don't want to be an architect. I don't want to study.

I want to be a Victoria's Secret Fashion Show model.

I want to be like Heidi Klum, Gisele Bundchen, Alessandra Ambrosio, Adriana Lima and Karolina Kurkova! Wheee.

Heidi Klum (in flashing underwear)

Gisele Bundchen (and JT)


Alessandra Ambrosio (zexy!)


Adriana Lima (cute)

Dream on, Les. Hahaha!

Some people are just born to be model-gorgeous and glamorous.
I was born to just dream about it. *sigh*

Does anyone have the videos of VSFS 2000, 2001 & 2002? Pahingi.

Stress

Master Yoda says that I didn't make the right decision in choosing the promotion over graduate studies.

Isaiah the Magic 8 Ball says otherwise.

I, on the other hand, am on the fence about it. It's strange, because I made a decision already, I shouldn't be anywhere near any kind of fence.

I woke up today with a sore throat and a fever, apparently an effect of extreme stress and dehydration. The thoughts running through my head:

1. Ang init.
2. Shit. Sabi ko kay Sir Jojo papasok ako ngayon...Baka hanapin nya ako.
3. (after checking my office mail account) Argh. May teleconference sa Monday.
4. Kailangan ko magpagaling. Bawal magkasakit. Kailangan ko pumasok.
5. Kahit may sakit ako, papasok parin ako. May deadline sa Friday eh.
6. Kaya ko ba to???

I just realized that I will be living like this (early mornings, late nights, lack of sleep, lack of nourishment, constant stress, no social life) for the next year or so. Now I understand the roboticness (hehe. word inventor) of my boss. I used to criticize him for being such a workaholic. We even gave him a Click VCD for Christmas just to give him a hint. And - horror of horrors - I am starting to become like him.

Not good.

And the worst part is, this is just the beginning.

What the hell did I get myself into?

The Unexpected

"Sometimes the expected simply pales in comparison to the unexpected. You gotta wonder why we cling to our expectations. Because the expected is just what keeps us steady, standing, still. The expected is just the beginning; the unexpected is what changes our lives."
-from Grey's Anatomy

I have had a run-in with the unexpected this week. It bowled me over, and I'm betting that it will change my life, if I let it.

I was accepted into UCL, and the school year is slated to start this September. I have been getting ready, psyching myself up to face the cold (freezing!) weather. I've refrained from buying tank tops for this summer, and I've started to buy winter clothes instead. For the past few months, I have been anticipating this event.

But that's not even the unexpected part yet.

A day before my birthday, the CEO of the firm I work for gave me some very big news. He has hand-picked me to head a new project in Dubai. Out of all the 120+ employees, he chose me to be the project architect. That's pretty big, considering that at 25, I'll be the youngest PA in the office, and I'll be managing an overseas project. No, I won't be based in Dubai, but I'll be attending meetings there a couple of times this year. I've never been there before, I've never headed a project before (at least, not one this big!), so this is a great opportunity.

I had to decide (he gave me a 4-day deadline to decide!) whether to take on this project, or to continue with my graduate school plans. It was a pretty tough decision to make, because they are both such great opportunities, that it would be really such a waste to let one of them go.

Which one do you think is the better option?
Which one do you think I picked? :)

Sweet Surprise

I found these lying on my bed when I got home from work tonight.
Thanks to Mia and Tina for this unexpected gift.
How you achieved this from 5000 miles away, I don't know.
Ang galing. Ang sweet. Nagulat ako!
Naiyak din ako, promise. Hehe. :')

I love you both! You are the sweeteeeeest! :) *hug*
*mwahmwahmwah*

Gusto Ko To!

I haven't been feeling very nice these past few weeks (the whole of February to be exact). I dunno why I'm so irritable/depressed/moody/sensitive for this month. I'm assuming I'm experiencing what's called the "Birthday Blues" -- also known as the condition that one acquires when one expects too much from other people. Bad. Very bad. :(

Since I've started on a selfish note, let me pull out all the stops and blatantly list down what I want for my birthday. Time to look greedy. Whoopee.

My Birthday Wishlist

(In no particular order...)

• Laptop bag (for a 15" laptop). Hopefully with padding and lots of pockets (to contain my mouse, power cord, etc.) Preferrably white, khaki or army green.
• Silent Sanctuary's new album. Niiice. :)
• Cool shades for summer! (My sister knows the style I like...Parang classic Chanel sunglasses).
• Silver/Silver-gold necklage with a nice pendant ("L," "Les," or a cute symbol - gem accents are very much welcome).
• A nice thumb ring. Or any sort of finger ring, as long as it's not a wedding ring (hehe. Not yet, anyway). Something I can wear everyday.
• Graphic tee from Team Manila (I'm size Medium-Large).
• Bench tee w/ the words "dedma" printed in front (White shirt w/ red letters). I've seen this shirt once, 3 years ago. On sale at that museum near BSP along Roxas Blvd. Hehe.
• Nice bikini for summer (*ehem* Calling on my seastarr).
• Body Shop Cheek Tint and those Bronzer Balls (is that what they're called? Panget pakinggan eh. Hehe).
• Whipped foundation.
• Digital Camera (Canon Digital Ixus, please)!
• iPod Video or iPod Nano. My iPod is dead. I need a new one. :(
• New jeans (yung hindi bitin).
• Brown flip-flops -- este -- tsinelas. (I'm size 8 1/2 to 9)
• Black/white sandals. 1-2 inch heels; bagay sa kahit ano.
• Messenger boy cap (army green or khaki).
• Trip to Boracay. Or Hong Kong.
• A pug puppy. Can anyone give me a dog to love? :(
• Beanie babies.
• And don't get me started on the books I want. It warrants a separate (and very long) blog entry. Just let me loose inside a Fully Booked store (with an appropriate amount of cash). Thank you very much.
• A nice, sweet, well-thought of surprise. Surprise me. Please. I need to cry happy tears for a change. This Birthday Blues thing has taken my tear ducts hostage.

The Holiday

"I have found almost everything ever written about love to be true. Shakespeare said, "Journeys end in lovers meeting." What an extraordinary thought.

I love this movie.

Yes, it's all about losing love, finding it in the end, and laughing and crying about it in between. Great characters. Great lines. I. LOVED. IT.

Kate Winslet's character made being tragic look so good. Hearing her spiel (see below) gave me a heart achy feeling because everything she said was so true. Being so dramatic, so tragic, and heartbroken is so romantic, it made me miss feeling that way.

Hah. Not really. Not quite. :D

"It doesn't matter how many new haircuts you get, or gyms you join, or how many glasses of chardonnay you drink with your girlfriends... you still go to bed every night going over every detail and wonder what you did wrong or how you could have misunderstood. and how in the hell for that brief moment you could think that you were that happy. And sometimes you can even convince yourself that he'll see the light and show up at your door. And after all that, however long all that may be, you'll go somewhere new. and you'll meet people who make you feel worthwhile again. And little pieces of your soul will finally come back. And all that fuzzy stuff, those years of your life that you wasted, that will eventually begin to fade."

Ack! I bet everyone (well, every girl - including me - at least) in that movie theater thought of that as their line. I'm sure you, my dear reader, are thinking that it's your line, too.

Weirdly enough, the nice thing about being so tragic and heartbroken, is the pain. It's the kind of pain that wrenches your gut, squeezes your heart, and makes you hurt in places that you never knew existed within you. I was addicted to that kind of pain, once. I was afraid to move on and let go of it because it consumed me for so long that I forgot how to be myself without it. I held on to the feeling of it, because it made me feel real -- just like how being in love makes you feel alive, pain has this uncanny way of reminding you that you exist.

Jude Law's character is a lot like Hugh Jackman's character in Kate and Leopold: a man that cannot possibly exist! He's good-looking, charming, bookish and intelligent, sensitive (how cute is it that he's a weeper? Haha) and he has s British accent. He's that and a lot of other things (I can't disclose everything as it will spoil the movie for you). An excerpt from a review of The Holiday: "The main draw to the film is the chemistry between the stars. Diaz and Law are so cute together you realize it really is a fantasy, but you want to believe it, because it feels good." Ahhh. So TRUE.

There are so many things in life that you want to believe just because they make you feel so good (love, of course, is the most obvious example). Some even force themselves to believe it, even when it starts to hurt -- because they so desperately want to go back to the time when it felt good.

"Because you're hoping you're wrong. And every time she does something that tells you she's no good, you ignore it. And every time she comes through and surprises you, she wins you over, and you lose that argument with yourself, that she's not for you."

*sigh* This is me being sappy. :)

I want a DVD just so I can watch it over and over again (without paying 120 bucks. Haha), and so I can hear those amazing lines. Somebody give me the complete script! Ahhh! :)

You Wouldn't Like Me Today

Everybody's been acting really pissy towards me today, and I am so sick of it.

Aaaaarrrrggghhh. *sigh* :'(

Random depressing thoughts:

· People assume that I will react in a certain way, that I am thinking of a certain thought, or that I am feeling a certain way, and all of that assuming undermines my real emotions, my real thoughts and my real actions. I know that I am a predictable person, and that my emotions are so easy to read, but I wish people would just have faith that I can go beyond what they perceive I am capable of.

· When you know a person so well, it's often hard to have faith in them, not because you don't trust them to do the right thing, but because you are so used to them doing just the opposite.

· I sometimes wish that I weren’t an adult, just so I could give up on things, and people wouldn’t think that I have shirked my responsibilities.

· I am absorbing so much negativity from the people around me that my heart feels like it's bleeding itself to death.

· I really wish I could tell my boss that I don't feel like going to work tomorrow because I'm emotionally drained, among other things. "Sir, di po ako papasok bukas. Gusto ko kasi magmukmok sa bahay."

* * * *

Ano ba. Hindi naman full moon. It’s not that time of the month. Then why do I feel so "dark and twisty?" :( Yuck. I think I'm channeling Meredith Grey. Hehe.

Feeling angry.confused.guilty.tired.sad. :(

Standing Up Straight

Yesterday I skipped worked to get my spine aligned. 3 hours of a therapist pushing and prodding my vertebra into the center.

Turns out that my left pelvic bone was misaligned, and my spine had a small curvature (it looked like the letter 'C.' Ugh. Nasty). And my legs weren't aligned. My right leg was longer than the left by 3 centimeters.

It was pretty cool...and effective, I think. My posture has improved considerably. Before this session, I couldn't keep my back straight while sitting or standing. Now, it actually hurts to try to hunch over. Ok, so my back isn't straight as a rod yet, but I don't hunch as much as before. 2 centimeters lang, at most. Hehe. And my legs are now perfectly aligned. So I'm genuinly 5'6" on both feet. Haha.

The annoying thing is, I have to sleep on my back as much as possible, or else my spine will just go back to how it was. I had to quell my urge to roll over and hug my pillow (I sleep in the fetal position). Argh. And I have to refrain from crossing my legs.

I have to do some self-help exercises here at home, and I have to go back for a maintenance session. But it was worth it, I think. There's some slight discomfort, but the spino-therapist said that my bone and muscles are still getting used to this new arrangement. Yeah. Me too. Hehe.

For 2007, I hope to fill this pretty notebook with all the things I want to do, all of my goals, and all of my aspirations. Whee.

Grey's Anatomy

I have been watching my Grey's Anatomy DVDs, and I am hooked. It's weird that normal people like me (yes, I am normal) can relate to the lives of surgeons (they are awesome, by the way. Kudos to all the great surgeons of the world. Hehe), but it is so easy to get emotionally involved with this show, with its characters.

Watching the show per episode really helps you get to know the characters, their lives, their quirks, their laudable traits, and most especially their annoying ones. I have sympathized with them, empathized with them, disliked them, shouted at them for doing stupid things, and cheered for them when they attempt to rectify their mistakes.

It is obviously a show revolving around the narrator, Dr. Meredith Grey, hence the title "Grey's Anatomy." But it hasn't been Meredith's show lately. Well, it actually hasn't been hers ever since season 1 ended. Ever since McDreamy chose to stay with his wife, Meredith Grey has gone from poor victim to needlessly desperate to pathetic whore to psychotic neurotic. Argh. Her whining and her lisp annoys me sometimes. The weird face she makes when she cries (wails) annoys me a lot.

Ellen Pompeo is nice and all, and I'm sure she's an ok actress, but too much of her is...well, annoying. Especially when she's playing emotionally wounded Meredith Grey, who feels sorry for herself most of the time. I know heartbreak is devastating, but she's a surgeon, for goodness' sake, I wish she would just suck it up.

She even expects McDreamy to leave his wife for her. How selfish is that? And how annoying is it that he actually favors her? Why the heck does he love Meredith over his wife? There should be Team Addison tshirts made, and I'll be one of the first to buy one. If you watch the show religiously, then you will understand why.

Izzy is beginning to go crazy as well. I guess that's what a medical internship does. I know people do stupid/crazy things for love, but Grey's Anatomy has proven that surgeons do "stupid" and "crazy" magnified a hundred times. And that's saying something for people who are supposedly smarter than most of us.

Hay. I get too emotionally involved with the shows I watch on TV and in the movies. Maybe it compensates for the lack of drama in my life. And that's a good thing. :) So I can cry and bitch all I want about the dramas which do not involve me, and I can emerge from it to live my real life. Yay.

Hard Gay and Fathers Day (with subtitles)

My current YouTube addiction. Haha. This guy is so funny, and obviously not gay, which makes his character even funnier.

If you like this video (Hard Gay - Father's Day), search for even funnier videos on YouTube.

I personally like the Ramen and the TOMY toy episodes the best. But there are tons more I haven't seen yet, so...:P

Say, say, say...Hard Gay...Hoooo! :D

Hilarious. :D
