Updating..

♪♫ On the third day of Christmas, my true love sent to me.. Three french hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge and a pear tree. ♫♪

Yeah. So much for intro.

Haven't blog for a while now. Not that I'm busy.. I'm just.. preoccupied. And I kind of lost the eagerness to write about my everyday blahs, after all boundary na naman ako sa blog posts for the year eh. [Check out my posts for the previous years.] So yeah.

I actually have nothing to write in particular.. I also don't know why i entitled this post "Updating.."; is there anything to update? =))

Here's some updates: [Even though you don't give a crap about it.]

★ The Dance Workshop at our church that we we're planning since October is finally over. 4 Saturdays of grooving, jazz-kicking, arms-twitching, and facial expressions -- and a dance recital to top it all off! It was all worth it. I was happy for the kids because I know they all learned a lot. I am also fulfilled that I get to dance again. :) And knowing that it is all for the Lord, all the hard work was definitely worth it! :)

★ My sister and I got into a 'silent war' because of some stupid shoes. [Yes! That's how far a apir of shoes can get..] We keep on ignoring each other for the past three weeks. But it was just last Saturday that she talked to me first.. As she was wrapping her Christmas gifts for her friends, she asked "May puncher ka ba?". "Wala eh..". Then I excitedly told her "May bago akong tattoo!" Then I showed it to her. And the rest.. went well. Back to normal I guess.

You had me at "May puncher ka ba?" --- wanted to tweet this particular line, but I hesitated because she might get pissed again, I don't want to push my luck! :)

★ And yes! I do have a new tattoo. I wouldn't call it 'new' 'cause I just expanded the one I already have at my lower back. Same theme -- flowers on waves of water. Though it's not yet done, I have to go back for another session. I didn't let 2010 pass without me having a tattoo.. That's four years in a row! :)

Another rock n' rolling Christmas gift from my punk rockin' Kuya Shad! :) [No photo for now. Kapag natapos na.]

★ I have an upcoming business [PhotoBooth] and I'm really excited about it. But of course I need to study the 'feasibility' of the project first before I go on. [Although I already bought some stuff for the business. Excited?] And also, I need to buy a new laptop so that I won't bother Louis to borrow his. Haha! =))

★ I'm done with my Christmas shopping. Yep! As busy as I am, I got it done.. too early I guess. :) But hey, it just took me one Saturday to get ALL done, and I mean ALL! [Well, except for my parents 'cause I'll be buying them a new phone for Christmas. I'm waiting for some mooolaah!]

★ I recently [Just now.] downloaded all the albums of N*SYNC. I kind of miss them and their music. Well, I know that they're not that good compared to what we have now. But hearing them all over again brings back so much memories. 'I Drive Myself Crazy' was the first song that a 'boy' ever dedicated to me. ♥♥♥ And I liked Justin Timberlake after they released their 'Celebrity' album in 2001. [And on the music video of 'Gone'] Haaaaaaaay. ^___^

So that's it for now. Tata! ♥

Be Joyful Inspite Of.. Despite Of..

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU MONDAY? You keep hitting me blow by blow. I'm not used to it! :|

My day started out well. Woke up earlier than the usual, arriving 15 mins early to work, ate breakfast with the usual people, then off to my desk to start my day.

Midday. I was chatting with a friend, talking 'bout.. eeerr... things. I don't want to go through all of the details but it just makes me sad that I am once again the reason for his.. eeerr... state? I can't find the right term. It is in these situations that I feel bothered. The one that I would have to choose between someone's feelings or my own feelings. And even if I choose myself over him, I still feel a little bit guilty/bothered. [See? I'm not that bitchy!] To simplify: Olats.

Sisterly War. Kept nagging me thru text about her clothes that I used for the weekend and the wedge that I have 'broken'. I really really hate it when she does that because:
1) I hate arguing over text. It's very.... Unsisterly. [Is there such a word? Haha!] Plus, I don't know what to reply because there's nothing I can say that will make her not mad at me.
2) Hindi ko ma-English kaya Tagalog nalang for this one.. Kapag siya yung gumagamit ng damit/gamit ko ng walang paalam, kahit gagamitin ko yun the next day, or kapag siya ang may nasisirang gamit ko.. WALA SIYANG NARIRINIG SAKIN. [Even sa text.]

At dahil dito uminit talaga ulo ko at kumunot noo ko. Sa inis ko, I ended up saying the lowest of all reasons.. "EH DI BABAYARAN KO PARA MAKABILI KA NG BAGO AT WAG NANG MAG-AWAY!" [Kahit na hindi naman ako talaga yung nakasira. Kainis eh!] Sabay reply "Di ko naman pinapabayaran eh, pinapaayos ko lang." Sauce. Hindi nga ako sumira, ako pa aayos? Bibili nalang ako ng bago nang matapos na.

See? See how low this argument is? I HATE IT! I'M HATING MYSELF RIGHT NOW!

Lunchtime. Someone PMed me. Telling me that a group of 'gossipers' we're talking about how snobbish I am, and that I wasn't smiling at them when they pass by. The heck with those people! They're VERY old to play Gossip Girl with me. They've already spread the rumors to their entire department, so now I am named '..yung hindi namamansin.' Pffft! This is what I hate the most! GOSSIP! People talking behind your back, with only one thing in mind.. to put you down. And it saddens me because its all they ever do. Instead of working hard and minding their own business, they tend to talk about other people's flaws/mistakes/misfortunes/etc. Para na nilang ulam yun araw-araw. Kainis! Matatanda na, ang tatabil pa ng dila! :p

Afternoon. Raining HARD. Earlier, I greeted a "friend" thru FB. Then, I checked back at her page and she entirely replied to all those who've greeted her, except for one.. ME! If I was just crazy enough, I would have posted the screen shot here. BUT, nvm. I know that after I blog about this, the feeling would just shake off. Going back, so yeah! She left me out! I don't know what her problem is; with me, with the content of my greeting [It's just a simple Happy Birthday btw] or some other stuff that may be "too personal". [A lot is 'too personal' these days!] I can't say that I don't care, because I do! I just wanna know why.. But then again, if she doesn't feel like it, I won't push it.

So yeah. Pretty amazing things for a Monday huh? Need I ask for more?

After almost being done with this entry.. [And having 3 glasses of Über cold water] I remembered something from the sermon yesterday.. that HAPPINESS is BECAUSE OF, while JOY/BEING JOYFUL is INSPITE OF and DESPITE OF. So even if this day gets any worse [Please.. Don't..] or if it will turn out quite the opposite [Crossing my fingers..] Still, I have to be thankful and be joyful for this day.. Inspite of.. Despite of.. ^____^

I. Thank. You. Bow.

Just before I hit 'Publish', the perfume that I ordered [DKNY Be Delicious] just arrived! Yey! ^___^ [Bawi one point!]

Wish I could do a rewind. ◄◄

Fallin' For You.

One of my favorite Colbie Caillat songs. Tried to play it on the guitar [with Louis' coaching. Haha!]. Attempted to cover it and upload it somewhere. But nooooo.. This made me just sit back, relax, and just enjoy listening. [And adore his cuteness! Aaaaww! ♥] Hope you enjoy this one too! Ü

Fallin' For You - A Colbie Caillat cover by Gabe Bondoc

I don't know but I think I maybe
Fallin' for you, dropping so quickly
Maybe I should keep this to myself
Waiting 'til I know you better

I am trying not to tell you
But I want to, I'm scared of what you'll say
So I'm hiding what I'm feeling
But I'm tired of holding this inside my head

I've been spending all my time
Just thinking about you
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I've been waiting all my life
And now I found you
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you

As I'm standing here and you hold my hand
Pull me towards you as we start to dance
All around us, I see nobody
Here in silence It's just you and me

I am trying not to tell you
But I want to, I'm scared of what you'll say
So I'm hiding what I'm feeling
But I'm tired of holding this inside my head

I've been spending all my time
Just thinking about you
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I've been waiting all my life
And now I found you
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you

Oh I just can't take it
My heart is racing
The emotions keep spinning out

I've been spending all my time
Just thinking about you
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I've been waiting all my life
And now I found you
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you

I can't stop thinking about it
I want you all around me
And now I just can't hide it
I think I'm fallin' for you

-------------------------

All around us I see nobody.. Here in silence it's just YOU and ME.. ♥♥♥

Your Smiling Face. ♥

At nag-"two hit" combo nanaman si Mr. Dado. Hehehe.

First is this drawing. I call it "fan art" kasi feeling artista ako eh. Haha! But really, he's just killing time when he does stuffs like these. :)

-------------------------

When I read the caption, naalala ko bigla yung kantang ♫♪ Whenever I see your smiling face.. blah.. blah.. blah.. ♪♫ Hindi ko pa alam yung title eh. Hehehe.

Then, yesterday, being a Tuesday. He asked me what song he'll cover for that day, and I remembered 'Your Smiling Face by James Taylor'. Ayun. Naparequest ako ng di oras. Hehehe.

-------------------------

Whenever I see your smiling face
I have to smile myself
Because I love you (Yes, I do)
And when you give me that pretty little pout
It turns me inside out
There's something about you, baby (I don't know)

Isn't it amazing a man like me
Can feel this way
Tell me how much longer
It will grow stronger every day
Oh, how much longer

I thought I was in love
A couple of times before
With the girl next door
But that was long before I met you
Now I'm sure that I won't forget you
And I thank my lucky stars
That you are who you are
And not just another lovely lady
Sent down to break my heart

Isn't it amazing a man like me
Can feel this way
Tell me how much longer
It can grow stronger every day
How much longer

No one can tell me that I'm doing wrong today
Whenever I see you smile at me
No one can tell me that I'm doing wrong today
Whenever I see your smiling face my way
No one can tell me that I'm doing wrong today
No one can tell me that I'm doing wrong today

-------------------------

Tell me how much longer it will go stronger everyday. ♥

Good Morning Sunday! :)

Hello world! It's been a while.. I've been kind of busy with those out-of-town trips that I always forget to write about it. (I'll refresh my memory and try to remember every 'this-is-worth-writing' detail.) Anyway..

GOOD MORNING SUNDAY! :)

Woke up SO early (6:45am) because I did sleep early last night.. on a Saturday! Hehehe. I really really need to have lots of rest to avoid further sickness. And of course I need to recharge my body for future activities. (Meron? Malay naten..)

I better get ready for Church. Baka ma-late pa ko kakaganito ko. Hehe. :) Bye for now! :)

*Hoping this would be a looooong but happy day! :)*
