how to lose a friend in 3 ways

1. buy the car she's selling but don't pay yet, wait for payday.
2. if the payday comes, delay payment by making excuses. lalala.
3. once you've delayed it for, say, 3 months, tell her you're not interested in the car because you've found a better one and you're going to return it to her today.

i am an evil person.

now, im not that bad and i didn't plan this from the beginning...
but the way things are turning around, it seems pretty much what i did...

im not saying im guilty either, but i was willing to pay for the penalty, i told her, but i guess the shock made her proud not to accept any help from me. too bad for me, we did have lots of happy times together, and it would really be my loss if i'll lose her as a friend...

enough of the dramatization, ate tina wasn't that angry, sure, she was in a grumbling sort of mood this mornig when i told her bambi isn't going to buy her car (which the former delayed the registration for 3 months) but she offered me an apple this afternoon... so i guess there isn't any grudge in her heart (bless her)... so... i guess im so lucky she understood.

what's with the finger-hurting exhibition i have this week?

just last wednesday i cut my middle left finger, then this morning the door slammed at my right fingers... big time.
so aside from the left finger band-aid i had, im also adding another one at my right fore finger to cover the bruise... hey! it's not my birthday, how come so many people remembers me?

bloody clumsy, that's me. clumsiness is my greatest talent so far.

i've found videos yesterday, for free! my gorgeous mac don't play windows media player-enhanced video on punkster's site so i never realize i could put one on my own, but i was 'wandering on the web' yesterday for some background music and voila! i've found the coolest addition to my blog... so far i have appointed daily videos until april.... though i haven't found passenger seat or binoculars or edwin mccain.

it's swimmmmmmmming season in manila! the greatest homesick-generator of all time. i hope they try to send me lots of photos though, add salt to the wound.. wuhuhu!

*****

o-o- before i forget....



how old are you now.. 19? hehe... your last teenage year, better make it good!

found my anime alter-ego hahaha

well i was shopping at monsoon when i found this cute anime character and guess what? she's chinese and she looks like me!!! good thing they're on sale, so i bought the cute t-shirt and surfed the net looking for her...

look, even the guy looks like bambi (hehe *grin* )



i found some forums dismissing them as "some sort of lesbian chinese cartoon" but some said "the fruitcake on the left is pucca's BOYFRIEND, garu" and "one of thoseTHINGS should be a boy" so they're not bad aren't they? but i really like them and now i want to collect every single pucca merchandise i can find...


*****

the four-day holiday just gave me headaches... when you're so used to moving and working you suddenly feel guilty if you're resting a bit... it's strange, i'm usually the lazy type but on the second day, im bored already!


*****

bambi is currently taking his driver's license here, his new bestfriend, kuya paul took him on a 'field trip' one night and they went to hamad town chasing drag racers and his jaw dropped at the 2-door bmw on sale at kuya paul's friend's house.

haha, tulo na naman laway nya... the good news is, i think they're going to buy it! hating bandido sila...

sh*t that hurts!

i cut myself this afternoon...

i guess you can see me typing these using just my right fingers while stupidly raising my left hand above my head... my stupid cutter got stuck and stupid me, i tried to force it out, so there, got myself a deep cut on my middle finger.

i thought it was't deep, but just when ate gemma started putting medicine (red thingy) on it and it didn't stop bleeding, i was shaking on my knees... it was flowing continuously! i've never seen so much blood before... okay, from a cut, that is!

who the hell remembered me and for what reason, i don't know... just, next time if you'll remember me, don't think of me too much, okay?

westlife is coming here!!!

well, well, congratulate me.

i just had a shouting match with our administrative officer this morning and i didn't cry (which is what usually happens if i get angry too much). e sira ulo sya e. everytime there's a pending job he excuses himself from the blame and everytime there's an accomplishment, dapat lagi syang kasali.... such a suck-up!

it was horrible, he was reddish on the face (or i don't know, he's black, so i cannot describe it) when he asked me why i have so many questions when he gives a job and im delaying it... im delaying it?!? i told him he's the one who'e delaying it... taking him weeks to translate something and months of conceiving an idea! then when i go straight to the boss for an artwork he wants to contribute something too. to tell everyone that he did SOMETHING.

nagmamarunong... buti sana kung may alam, wala naman.

and my girls here tells me 'good job', or 'very good girl'.... but i didn't do it for any other reason than being fed up with him. he's too much, and it's about time i stop acting like an angel here, scared & submissive.

to think it all started when i asked for a briefing form...

and the weather! it's such a sad day if it's cloudy... yesterday i saw a hundred birds flying like a twister, circling the sky for whatever reason they may have... such a weird sight.

*****
on a lighter note,



too bad they'll be here on (exactly) april 13... birthday ni bambi... how am i going to go there when he hates them?!?


*****

i've (FINALLY) found some friends at friendster, my old classmates who (unfortunately for me) still bonds til now (inggit ako e!!!) without aleli, hindi ko pa sila makikita, so thank you lola! they may be at the beach celebrating maynard's graduation and ariel's birthday this weekend.


*****

bambi is SOOOO into his job... and when he's at home he's either sleeping or playing pc games. and it's always hard to sleep at night if all you can hear are bombs or construction sounds. we always fighting about that especially when i had a rough day and will have a rough one again the next day.

but his schedule allows him to walk me to work every morning... dun na lang kami nagkukuwentuhan. or nag-aasaran.

*****

im going to sell that stupid videocam, stupid cable and stupid picture package. dumbest thing from sony. ill just buy a digicam if i can... this month or maybe next month.

*****

my mother's bakery is pending. (patience is a virtue...)
my youngest sister celebrated her 6th birthday last 11. (oh, no! i better prepare myself for her make-up kits)
my sister is crying for her 'miserable' life... (sissy)
and our neighbors in manila are starting on a new chismax fest on me (get a life, you dorks!)

always sunny with clouds barely visible

the one and ONLY thing i love in Bahrain is it's sunny skies, like it's summer everyday.... days like these makes me want to miss work and just stare at the sky...

i took this yesterday, after going to 5 Points of Sale taking pictures for a proposal in the magazine. it's a very good thing that bambi received 50+ magazines from his friend (who delivers magazine to a local bookshop) so i have plenty of sources for concepts.

*****

The One launched it's Bahrain store last 31st, they have special guests (like some Sheikhs) and he was gutsy enough to talk to the owner (oh, you know him, he talks to EVERYONE, and Mr. Thomas was no exception). Would you believe that he don't want to further expand his business just because he don't want to lose personal relationships with his staff? he will have his 70th shop next year, i think.

i think he's so lucky to be in the best company in the whole world, where your effort is appreciated, and the company itself will help you to grow and develop your skills. very few companies are like that here. especially with all the discrimination. buti sana kung may 'k' sila mag-discriminate.

they have BLACK t-shirt as a uniform, would you believe? i love, love, love it.


here's a pix of him,


bambi and his new uniform


and his name tag

*****

he said i can go home alone this june. yeah, like i have the money. i better save asap coz when i go home i will shop, shop, shop.

but i was so down last week. i went ot the ONLY Bench shop here and guess what... their Dao Ming Xi collection was out of stock already. i asked them what?!? when did that arrive? why didn't you tell me?!? who knows him here and why did they buy all of your stocks?!? they could have left something for me... like one or five shirts...

akala ko ako lang ang makakabili non lahat kasi akala ko wala namang nakakakilala ka dao ming xi dito e... naubusan pa ko!?! yan tuloy panlalake na lang ung bibilhin ko... as if naman susuotin ni bambi yun e hate na hate nya ung MG. anong gagawin ko dun, ididisplay?

*****

i lost 5 lbs last month, and i couldn't believe it. with all the ice creams and pizzas i ate during the holidays? the scale must be broken. or it must be because of the green tea stuff... hmmm, i must buy more of those by payday.


*****

FINALLY, FINALLY!

i've been waiting for my cousin's picture and her baby for AGES na, and i finally saw it on punkster's photos. in friendster. here she is with my niece...


i wanna go home and carry her baby, i miss them so much...

we only had bondings before with my siblings when my father goes home for a vacation, then we would go swimming in laguna, or take a trip to tagaytay...

oh, and i forgot, when tita bebe has bulag running, we went swimming in batangas, also once with my father and the whole family...

once we walked on the beach, just the seven of us, me, eyang, yves, jojo, shasha, alot and eli, we were in Cavite and we stayed overnight... it was, i think, 3 in the morning, and we couldn't sleep, so we walked down the beach and just talked about anything, (meron pa ngang naghahalikan sa beach e haha) and that was like our bonding...

they were the first ones from where i heard pagdating ng panahon... and at that time di pa baduy ung song ni aiza.. hehe



i wonder when we can take a trip like that again, but just the seven of us... oh, i mean eight, now that (what's her name? nobody told me) is here... again on a starlit night at the beach


*****

maybe if i will have a baby, he will look like this:

it was sent to me by diana, she said he looks like me. i don't know where she got his picture but the baby is really cute here...

*****

one thing i've noticed to all pinoys who goes abroad is... together with homesickness, you also acquire a sense of ka-baduy-an and ka-OA-an, i mean, kahit sakin napapansin ko, OA na ko minsan sa mga posts ko, but what can i do? i'm really homesick here, and if i don't write what i feel, i will explode...

so read at your own risk, i will write what i feel. it's 100% pure me.
(over-acting included)
