Jen's 23rd

Happy 23rd Birthday to my best friend Jen!! :)

This (Not So Good) Week

this is what surprised me Tuesday night. my grandmother beside one of the cabinets that housed some of my things. i asked her what she was doing and she was just so furious. this then led to unpleasant conversations and yelling that left me crying all night. i didn't answered back anymore because i know it will only make things worse than they already are. she's really not herself and i just don't understand her anymore.

and here comes Basyang (the typhoon). the wind howled all night and lights were out. and it was a really sad sad night. one of the saddest i can remember and it feels like im so lost.

fast forward to today. Sunday. the grownups went to a party during lunch, so i, together with my brother and two cousins, went to the mall to pick up a book i pre-ordered at Powerbooks. :)

got it! :) Crazy Love by Francis Chan. :) i got many books now waiting to be read. hmmm.. it's all goood. :)

we stopped by Cerealicious to snack and rest for awhile.

About A-hoy : coco pops, chips ahoy, choco kisses

Pirates of the Cadbury-ean : koko duo, cadbury zip, oreo

Jumango : cornflakes, mango, honey crumble

it was gloomy and raining on our way home and it reminded me again of what these past few days had brought me. *sigh*

thanks to Joy for the pictures. :)

yup, she also took the first picture. ;)

Basyang

Wednesday night was a total blackout.

it was like ghost town here in Binondo!

anyway, glad that it's already Friday.

and power lines are now restored.

except for some rotating brownouts.

Happy Monday

today, i got two things that made my Monday a happy one. :)

Books

my much awaited books! :) Plan B by Pete Wilson, I Will Carry You by Angie Smith (yeah i bought two!!), and The One Year Book of Hope by Nancy Guthrie. i was really looking forward to reading these books. thanks Candy! :)

Starbuck's To Go Strap

while wrapping my new books and eating Yellow Cab's pizza, my Dad came home and gave me this cute cellphone strap from Starbucks. that's sweet of him. :)

lately, im struggling on how to deal with my grandmother. she started to change two weeks ago. she suddenly becomes so full of energy that she wants to get involved in everything. she cleans eveything she could get her hands on, she threw away some things that meant so much to me, she emptied our pantry, she opens my cabinet, she comments on my clothes, my things, on how i do things. actually, she's not only like that to me, she's like that almost towards everybody. it seems like there's always something (bad) to say all the time. and it seems like i don't know her anymore. it just makes me sad and frustrated. :( i work with her, i live with her, and i share the same room with her. and im really sad because i can't do anything about it. i just want to have her old self back. :(

and so... im always sad, whether i go to work or come home. either way, im still with her. it's not that i don't want to be with her, it's just that i don't want what's happening between us. it makes me want to get away for awhile. to breathe. :(

anyways, i think it's time to hit the sack. early tomorrow! i hope tomorrow will be a good day. goodnight folks. :)

Hello July

hello all. it's a new month once again. we're now on the 7th month of 2010. :)

yesterday, i had a training for Sunday School early in the morning. after that, i tutored then went back to work. we're still open even during holidays.

we now have a new president too. :) i hope Aquino will do better than Arroyo.

last night, i attended our practice for Sunday. our song - Who Am I. if ever, it will be our first time to sing it. but our practice didn't go well. :( im trying to find an easier piano piece, then i got a text that our songs will be changed already.

im still at home now. because we have a new maid, so i have to show her around. i'll be back at work after lunch. :)

so there, just popped in to do a quick post. :) now i'll go back to cleaning my book shelf. :)
