updates and some thoughts.

it's mid-week. : ) this day was quick. maybe because i was busy at work that's why i didn't noticed the time.. good. after work my Aunt and i dropped by the grocery to buy ice cream and cranberry juice. i love cranberry juice lately. : ) as usual, it was still HOT today, but it rained tonight. while eating dinner, i was looking at the sky thinking it might rain, then i saw a tornado. a tornado in Manila?!? yup! i saw it. its far from our place, but from our building, i saw it moving.. very fast. i was so scared. i wonder where it came from. after around four minutes, rain started to pour and it was gone. i hope to never see one again.

after having second thoughts on going out after seeing what i saw, i went to the mall and had my brother's undershirt's size changed. it's almost a week since i bought it, so i have to have it changed already. luckily, a friend accompanied me. : ) i had it changed, bought a top from Kamiseta, and my favorite Curry Naan and Cheese Flosss from Breadtalk and came home. : ) it feels good to be home. to have time for yourself.. do nothing and just take your time. : ) since i started working, it seems like i hardly had any time to rest. during the day, there were just a lot of work to do. during the night, i go to church and sometimes even have problems sleeping. i always thought that there's no time to waste, and i just had to go, go, go. but it's not healthy, and from now on, i hope that i'd learn to balance my time in everything. like what the Bible said, indeed there's time for everything. : )

before i end this entry, i want to share with you what i received last weekend -

a surprise package from Auntie Rebecca. : ) it's a book. it's her graduation gift for me aside from this - which she got me when we saw each other at the conference -

yummy goodies from Cebu haha. inside the book, she placed photos of me with her, and another one with Grace, Candy, Keren, and Daniel. : ) and on the first page she wrote, "What you have is God's gift to you. What you are is your gift to God". : ) love it.

please pray for me, im having colds and i think im down to something. have a good night! : )

hair talk and gifts

tomorrow will be our graduation day. : ) yey! one more sleep to go. and i got two gifts from my aunties today.

a book from Auntie Cherry

red patent sandals from Auntie Julene

anyway.. it's our second to the last day of driving. and i can say we're doing pretty well. : ) but we still don't know how to park yet! haha. after that, i bought some popcorn, a chiffon slice, fresh lumpia, and water.. then, guess where i went? to the parlor! haha! i had my hair rebonded. : ) i actually do this twice a year. and only one person makes it for me - Ferdie. yeah, i know you don't know him. i just want to mention his name hehe. he always come to our house and make my hair. for a price alot cheaper than the one in salons. he works for ABS-CBN and Salon de Manila before so he's that good. but late last year, i heard he went abroad. and i can't reach him now. my hair is really not okay already, so i decided to have it done today. : ) Alda referred me to that salon since she had her hair done there before and it's not bad too. im satisfied with the result too. but let's wait until i rinse it off to see the final result. : ) i sat there for.. SEVEN hours. tsk. i was so bored and there are times when i really want to get up and go home haha. im glad i didn't. ; )

till here. goodnight blog world!! : )

powerbooks

last Friday, i went to Trinoma to finish buying gifts for Christmas. i dropped by my favorite bookstore, Powerbooks, and bought two Belle de Jour planner. : ) one for me, and the other will be a gift for someone. i already have my Starbucks planner, but i find this one very nice, and i know i can't go out the store without buying one for myself too. haha. : ) inside, they have alot of special pages like, daily schedule, errand list, menstrual tracker, health checklist, vacation planner, birthday list, 2009 goals, emergency numbers, expense tracker, and (my most favorite) discount coupons! : ) 60 coupons to be exact. it's php598. is it worth it?

anyway.. i still don't have the Twilight Series. i just borrowed the one i have here from my cousin. and she doesn't want to lend me anymore because, according to some people at church, we shouldn't read it because it's about vampires. tsk! i don't get the point. its just fiction. im still going to finish it, haha. and i think im falling in love with Edward, haha. : )) dreaming is for free, i tell you. : ) he isn't real anyway.. so its okay. when i went to Powerbooks, Fully Booked, and even National Bookstore, they all ran out of stocks. too bad. im hoping that someone will give me a set of it this Christmas, an Aunt maybe? so patiently i'll wait for it. haha. but if it doesn't come, i'll buy one for myself next year. : )

right now, i should be finishing my lesson plan for our assignment tomorrow. and start packing up my luggage for this weekend's conference. but... im so lazy to do anything. : ( i want to sleep. and get rid of these dark circles under my eyes.

more busy days ahead. i know. and i can't avoid it.
