12th - "Make Use Of Your Benefits."

Helloooooo JULY! Oh Yes! It is my birth month already. Ü It kind of makes me excited because:

1.) I have lots of friends whose birthday falls on this month, therefore, its also PARTY MONTH! Hahaha. [Lahat nalang may title?] Birthday bashes.. KEEP IT COMING! Ü

2.) Feelin ko ang special special ko pag July, kahit ako mismo yung nagpapaspecial ng sarili ko. Haha! Basta, parang month-long lagi ang celebration ko ng birthday. I don't know lang this year kung ganun pa rin. [Dami kasing set of friends.]

3.) Even though its annoying at times, I kind of enjoy the rainy season. Dapat lang laging kang handa. [Payong? Check. Traffic? Dislike.]

4.) After this month, it will be August.. Then September.. Then October.. I don't know pero parang mas bumibilis yung paglipas ng araw? before you know it, we're celebrating Christmas already! Haha! Ü

So how did I spend the first day of my favorite month? SICK LEAVE. Haha! Ü Actually, I called in sick the night before and I have a very good reason for doing so.

I was scheduled to enroll for my passport on September 17, 2010. Luckily, my mom found an open slot and it was moved to June 30th. But it was declared as a special non-working holiday, so it was moved again to this day. I arrived at the DFA office around 10am [I was planning to be there at 7AM, but I didn't wake up early.] I thought having an appointment online would mean that your application would be processed faster and ahead of time hence you will not fall in line. But I was wrong. THE LINE WAS LONG. As in freaking LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG! And because I am practicing to be patient [Haha!] I decided to fall in line. It like I'm in Araneta Coliseum falling in line to buy a ticket to the UAAP Cheering Competition [Being the Thomasian that I am, It is a big deal to watch it at the Big Dome.] Then suddenly, I remember an officemate telling me that there is a "Courtesy Lane" for government employees who will be processing their passport. So after 30 mins. [Of falling in line OUTSIDE the DFA office.] I decided to ask the guard. "Sir, may courtesy lane po ba for government employees?" "Meron, bakit? Government employee ka ba?" [Nagtataray ang jaguar!] "Oo, ito po ID ko." [Z snap!] "Ay ma'am, bat ka pa pumila jan. Dito po yung Courtesy Lane.." At hinatid nya ko sa building na may magandang pinto, malamig, at may escalator pa! Ü So umakyat ako, and followed all the booths that read "Courtesy Lane." And after 45 mins.. CHEDENG! Tapos na! Ang laki ng ngiti ko nung natapos ko na sya, kala ko kasi aabutan ako ng lunch break eh. I have the rest of the day to myself. Basta! At last, I HAVE A FREAKING PASSPORT! SG, Here we come! Ü

The whole afternoon is dedicated to mere bumming! Ü Watched Pretty Little Liars [Which is pretty good and intriguing.] Then around 6pm, I started preparing for my "Eclipse Date" with my sister at Gateway. Sobrang hassle kasi I thought 7pm yung start ng movie, and I'm wondering bakit hindi pa sya tumatawag eh wala pa ko dun. So when I arrived there, nakita ko ang haba ng pila [What is it with this day? Puro pila!] and then I texted her. She told me na 8:30pm pa pala yung movie. Tsk! Kainis lang. Pero ok lang, di naman ako na-bore maghintay sa kanya eh. Iniisip ko nalang treat naman nya to. Ü I haven't had dinner yet, buti nalang may free meal yung movie tickets namin. TACO BELL BABY! Ü Super panalo! Ang sarap ng Quesidillas! Ü Oh, the benefits of being the "youngest" sister! Hehehe.

What I really enjoy when I watch movies with Ate Kat is that pareho kaming "jumpy". I mean, yung masaydong magugulatin sa mga sounds, violence, etc. SO start pa lang ng movie napaindak na kami kay Riley! Haha! Basta! And of course we enjoyed mocking Bella; "Mapusok 'tong si Bella!" "Mga kabataan talaga ngayon!" "GANDA MO BELLA AH!". The movie was okay, I'm not a Twilight die hard fan, I just like to watch it. I haven't read the book.. YET! That's why I don't have something to compare it to. I just adore how Edward proposed to Bella. He's just to freaking sweet for a vampire! ♥

After the movie, they took me home.

And that was how I spent the first day of my favorite month. ♥

Ate Kat's line for the night: "Ayaaaaan naaaa! Ayaaaan naaaa yung mga BUMPFIRE!!" Hahaha. Ü

11 Days to go.. ♥
