My Afternoon Nightmare

24 Sept, I was unable to report for work due to gastric pains and period cramps. After taking my medicines, I slept and it was about 3pm that time.

My head was against the wall, with windows above me, where I can see grayish sky.
Feet is almost toward the room door, beside door is our built-in cabinet.

It was a good sleep with dream that seems like very real, so vivid.

I was with couple of friends back home in Manila. They were mix of my high school classmates and some ex colleagues. Just to write down some of the scenarios that can still remember....

My friends and I were having fun, eating chocolates and marshmallows. We are wearing black and up to some event. I was talking to this guy and seems like we are very close and he was handing me some sweets. Unfortunately, I cannot remember who he was and no recall on his facial feature. First we were there to watch or witness this Tagalog movie, starring Iza Calzado and Lot Lot De Leon. The scene, there is this demonic possession that is happening and some workers in the movie got possessed - there was some flooding as well .. the movie was not in full and second thing I knew is that we have to find our spot on a big bed to sleep on, placed inside a sort of a camp site. I found mine, beside an ex colleague, she was close to the edge of the bed.

And so we slept. Next thing I knew, I heard my mobile phones ringing. One after the other. I tried to reach for it but I cannot move my body neither my arms and hand. Still ringing. Sad part is I just noticed that I was already alone and I cannot find anyone to help me. I tried to scream for help, but no voice is coming out of me. I tried to move, I cannot. I tried to see who was calling me but I cannot move even my head. When I tried to scream again, I just felt that something was placed inside my mouth, taste like sand.....I am sure it's not food, I see no one, yet, I can feel something or someone is around me - playing tricks on me. Again, my phone rings - I remmber seeing Sony Ericsson and some old Nokia mobile handset.... those are my phones years back. Anyway, going back, still I cannot move myself and feeling that my entire body is totally wrapped by fear, I started to pray. Prayed so hard, that I know I cannot move even my tongue. I was like going into a stroke. But I have to stay calm and keep on praying. I try to move again, and this time i felt a bit of improvement that I know I was able to move my arms... but I cannot see it moving. All I see is myself frozen in fears, that my head is looking upward and my body is a bit twisted. I hear in the background were mahjong chips being shuffled. I knew am close to reality. I kept on praying very hard. And then there I woke up. Same position as my dream where  the grayish sky again. I walked and reached for the widely open door, as I about to close it, I saw a white labrador, quite big but weird, because it has some stripes. He was staring at me while moving away from me. I just ignored him, never realising we do not have dogs at home, I immediately went to the kitchen and saw that one of the burners of our stove is lit and a frying pan was on it. So i closed it. Then, the other burner started to lit up. Oh no, I think I was still being played on. Then I looked around and saw there were couple of stoves around me that starts to lit up........ ohhh noo! I want to wake up!!!

And there, managed to wake up and saw my right arm is behind me and feeling numb.

I tried to move and get up, which I managed to. Thank God. Feel so relieved..... Thank You Lord, am still alive.

The one am so Onz about!

No room for regrets!

20 September 2012

Stella (colleague) absolutely right, unknowingly, the tea that I had is preventing me to from sleeping (00:58 at the moment).  I thought of “why not I listen to my Bible audio book?” – nah, cannot because am charging and plug is away from the bed, another is “I will just read the book I bought yesterday!” – oh, also cannot – BF needs to sleep and yes, lights off. Instead, I just opened my laptop and surf online – first website to visit… recently held Spikes Asia 2012.

Happy to tell that I became part of it (Spikes), and yes, it was the first and hopefully not the last renowned advertising festival for me. My company (Aegis Media, Thank You!!!) sent me as a delegate cum competitor for Young Spikes  - Media category. Cut story short, not lucky enough to bag some medals but did bring home a tremendous experience that leaves a handful of lessons to take note and make use of.

In fact, not being so melodramatic, Spikes became an awakening point for me. I have a lot of realizations and have recalled how I became so lax with everything. Thought I was good enough, prepared enough and knowledgeable enough. So I stopped reading. I got tired of crafting short stories and noticed that I haven’t updated my blog for a year or so. What happened to my passion to dancing? I have bought running shoes that I rarely use and signed up for a year of gym class that I seldom go to. In short, I just found myself being stuck in a super unhealthy routine that has not helped me to grow mentally, spiritually and emotionally – oh yes, physically I did grow - hips and tummy are wider than before! Not good. All these hit me like a tornado crashing into a dilapidated house…. Totally ruined. (Yes, I exaggerated!)

But instead of to weep after devastation, I quickly got on my feet and cleared my mind – plan ahead! With the help of my friends and family members (boyfriend and sis especially) I was able to get enough confidence to start and continue the fight in the search for greatness – very cliché but true. Like one friend told me, pain is what makes us stronger. Hence, if I am in so much pain now because a new and better version of me is coming out of me also. Of course, it will not be easy like am super okay in an instant; I needed to do some retail therapy. For a change, I bought myself a book. It has been a very long time (I cannot remember) since the last time I bought one. I am on chapter 2 now, and am very happy that it is working little by little.

Such may not be enough. Another one I just added to my bucket list is to try and experience becoming a lector in church. I always go to church but the fact of go to church because you are to render your for a gospel, is something very new yet totally nerve-wracking. Must conquer fear – usual advise from our dear friends especially those succeed ones – usual advise that I must really take on seriously. What is it in there that we need to feel afraid of? It’s not the end of the world if we commit this work related mistakes (unless a crime perhaps?) and just like artiste, we’re always as good as our last performance so better give it all!

Okay, I think the tea in my body is already diluted by water I took before hitting the bed – drowsy now.

Tell you more about my day tomorrow and what other realizations that have been filling up my mind.

Good night. 

my newest bigger baby

She’s big and red. May not be top of the line but for me, she’s amazing.

- Roxie, that’s what I have decided to call her.

 

Well, I still have Pinky Swear  with me but might share her to someone who needs more her help.

 

PS I love you and I will surely miss you.

Banchetto-Emerald, a gem to find in Ortigas!

If you think F. Ortigas Jr. Avenue (formerly Emerald) is just a typical corporate district, think again, because every Friday midnight (until next day, Saturday 11am), the place transforms into a food haven called “Banchetto Emerald”, which offers an array of dishes that you can imagine!

“Banchetto” (Italian word for feast) in Emerald, aims to promote tourism in Ortigas Center, attracting residents in condominiums and subdivisions within the area and visitors from nearby villages. This also became beneficial to the employees working in Ortigas area especially people from call-center firms who do graveyard shifts during weekends.

Tents filled with “sea-foods” and “sin-foods” are lined up for your enjoyment. Must-try Filipino dishes such asInihaw na Liempo (grilled pork belly), Fish or Pork Sisig (fish or pork marinated in vinegar, seasoned and fried),Adobo (chicken or pork cooked in vinegar and soy sauce, pepper added), Litson Kawali (crispy pan-fried roasted pork), Calamari (fried squid) and other meat or vegetable based viands served with freshly cooked rice are offered in most of the stalls.

In case you come with full stomach but still have room for desserts and other finger foods, there are booths that serve bread with fillings, cakes, cold salads (cream/milk based), cheese and pizza sticks, crepes (best seller!), biscuits and even fresh fruits.

Craving for other European, American or other Asian cooking? Sure you will enjoy stalls that sell pizza, big hamburgers, Hungarian sausages, pasta, shushi, sashimi, maki, Korean beef stew and more. Servings are definitely good enough even for sharing.

Once you have your meal, you have a choice of either “Take Out or Away” or “Dine in” and savor it in Banchetto, as tables and chairs are already provided for everyone’s convenience. So if you are in a strict diet and your resistance to temptation is low, you better stay away from Banchetto-Emerald because all servings are, indeed… irresistible.

TO EAT? OR NOT TO EAT?

To Eat:

• Banchetto Emerald offers wide collection of dishes that are absolutely enjoyable; all kinds that you can imagine are already in front of you!
• Best to bring your family or friends, spend a different kind of early morning fun there!
• Prices are very affordable.
• Chairs and Tables are provided for those who would want to stay and eat.

Not To Eat:

• Manila weather is unpredictable. It could get very warm or hot outside or unexpected rainfall will happen.
• The place can become so crowded especially on paydays. You may find it hard to score a table and chair.
• Thinking of those additional calories that are very hard to burn.

Sweet sister to anyone….literally cause I call most girls…SISTER! I heart PINK (not the singer but anything PINK) and GREEN! Girly but always been placed amongst boys (like am stuck with a Male team-mate, Male events staff and Male clients).

I can take great pictures just by using a usual point and shoot digicam, I drink liquor (because am working for an alco beverage), I don’t smoke (too bad am stuck with smokers), I love to eat…eat…eat…. I always dream of having a tattoo done by Miami Ink Guys! (But I guess the latter will always remain as a dream).

I love injections… no, I’m not an addict…I just love getting those shots: like flu vaccine or other medications that cannot be taken orally (just thru the veins) or getting a blood test… I know - that was quite weird.

Of course, I’m the person who is fond of long walks, road-trips, backpacking activities, trekking anything that will bring me out of town. Swimming…uhm, think it’s fine but since I never knew how to swim, yes, weak…so weak!

I can dance…. But still have that wish to become a known POLE DANCER!

I enjoy talking to people….. Except when I have mouth sores…. (Like right now, I don’t usually have this but darn, these sores popped for almost a week and still active…)

I’m running out of words… but if you wanna know more about me, you can probably ask or if not…then don’t. Lol.

Dare-Divas of Sagada!

Posting soon will by my "near-death" thrilling, eye-popping and hair-raising experience in Sagada, Mountain Province, Philippines. Spelunking and trekking in one day can be really tiring but hey, girls don’t get to do that everyday!

Humans are the new aliens @ Planet 51!

UFOs, Aliens, ETs… whatever we call them, one thing for sure, they did not originate from EARTH! Often times they appear to be pretty scary or sometimes, admit it, they are slimy (thanks to series of Alien Movies – ET, Alien Trilogy, Mars Attacks, Star Wars, Starship Troopers etc). But it is quite surprising, because recently I have seen movies that depict extraterrestrial life in a different way, like District 9. Aliens may have occupied a portion of a state but did nothing to harm humans; actually, it is the other way around because of the destructive experiments done by humans. Too bad… we could have befriended them instead… (Haha, weird!) On the lighter note, I saw recently an interesting film, whichfeatured Aliens… or another life-form… and oh, I forgot, they are so cute! Title of the Film is Planet 51. You may have heard or seen its preview somewhere but I tell you the film has lots of stuff to offer – and yes, the movie is quite GREEN! Oh LITERALLY GREEN! (Not the naughty-slutty meaning!)

Minutes prior the start of the movie, I was actually wondering what the plot would be… I knew that it will be a good film, and the characters are so cute, they look like ogres (Shrek) actually and has even better graphics!

So it started off with the usual, National Anthem, then a little raffle courtesy of Zed Philippines and Smart Communications, too bad I was not able to win the design-your-Planet 51 Tickets contest, it was somebody from a publication and the other, I don’t actually know who… prize is a mobile phone, don’t actually remember what unit but hey, it’s not bad at all!

Let me share something about the movie (promise, I wont spoil the ending): American astronaut Captain Charles "Chuck" Baker and his spaceship landed in a place (or land?) called “Planet 51”. He initially thought that said land was uninhabited, like he’s the first to set on foot there but much to his surprise; Planet 51 is already populated by cute little green (told you this film is so GREEN! Hahah) people (or creatures) that have normal lives like ours and share almost the same urgencies and practices, like speaking fluent English! See, the structure of their houses is like America, in 1950’s setting… the only weird thing (but most interesting part) is everytime the town experiences RAIN… it is one helluva rainfall, why? It is not water (or rainwater) it is all ROCKS! Man! It is indeed fun but you gotta have strong coconuts (head, I mean) to withstand such weather there! Anyway, when these green creatures saw Capt. Chuck, they thought that they are being invaded by a strange creature…. A HUMAN! (huwaaatt???, yeah, it’s the other way around there!) Feeling a little frightened, these green people are starting to chase Capt. Chuck… will he be safe around Planet 51? Can “Rover”, his robot be able to help him navigate his way back to the ship? Be ready for a dazzling and bewildering ride to space and Planet 51! (n theatres starting Dec. 2, 2009)

March 30, wee hours

Serious Warning.

 

I just spoke with my boyfriend and usual stuff we spoken about. However, my guy, just lead to a topic that made me thought so hard. It just hit him, that thought of me cheating again. I know I so lack QT with him, even with my family. I go home late from work and I’m making our house just a “sleeping and washing quarter” – which is not good. Perhaps this whole idea of everyday OT leads him to think that I am not doing well in this relationship. Must admit that I had mistakes before and that may have injured his heart and made some holes in it, those we are trying to heal up to this time.

 

I am the type that can stand the whole day not talking to him, maybe that’s one of the grounds he’s looking at, “bakit ko kaya?” I am asking the same question too, surprisingly.

 

I love my boyfriend and I know that I would deeply hurt if and when that thing – break up – happened again. We have been in that scene before – I was caught red handed and him, busted. Of course it was an all-tears moment, we broke up but it did not even last for a week! It’s just like a day or two of no talk but the time we saw each other, we just melt.

 

We never,seldom fight. Our fights would be because inaatake ako ng kaartehan sabi nga nia. Like choice of people to go with, I rarely go with him whenever they have a barkada gathering. I always find reason so I will not be able to go --- he knows that I am faking it, he just do not get the point why I need to do that. I don’t get myself too. Haha! Revealing true reason… I am losing my self confidence – especially now that I am like this – fat. I know it shouldn’t be the basis for everything but I feel so ashamed for him if we are going out. I look older than of my age, am 25 but I look 40 – well that’s OA. Hah! Although I can say I have achieved so much still I do not have the feet to stand tall.

 

He mentioned that I am superficial. I also intend to look at other persons fault and put a comment on it. Could that be a reason why I am feeling jittery all the time am with his pals?

 

I went out with a colleague last night and since we had couple of drinks, I begun to share things. I just realized that my biggest fear pala is rejection. I found out at last!

 

I fear that my bf’s friends will find me unpleasant because of my physical appearance of something. Especially recently I found out that one of his batchmates, like love him so much, since their junior years! I knew that when I opened his YM and pretended that I am him. That girl… she really went gaga and confessed her love to my dear hunny. I thought it was fun at first, since I was playing around but later on I find that she’s beginning to like the way I talk (thinking again that I am Nelson) then she started blurting out things like “I love you” and “may chance ba tayo”… scary to death~ ew.

 

Anyway, bottomline naman she realized that she just got carried away and will not do a single “bad” thing (subukan nia lang) to hurt our loveful relationship.

 

Okay, maybe I am too scared to face my dilemma and much worse, I am doing NOTHING to make things better.

 

It’s not good I know.

 

I may need your help but the change should start with me.

 

Pressing START button – NOW

March 29. Quarter before Midnight

So weird!

 

I used to have a line under Globe, which I gave up few months ago. I just do not understand that Globe does that transferring of phone number to another user. I am not so pleased about it. I just found out that my old number has a new user, and weirdest thing on earth, we share the same name. Hate it! That number was like posted to all my friends and business-pals and sudden changes that I had to give up that line… not knowing it will or can be transferred to another person. Anyway, I feel so ashamed, because I have “dirty little secrets” using that number, and am so super scared that she might explore any of it.  Perhaps she already “Googled” me or something – paranoid! I know Globe sent me letters that I usually ignored before… but I didn’t know that it will end up just like this.

 

Lesson learned, always have a clean slate cause may not know when these crazy things will occur…

 

So calling all my friends and business-pals…. I no longer own my old number 0917-5006489 or 0917500MITZ as it was already transferred to girl named Mitzi R. Salvador of somewhere there. So please if you want to get in touch with me thru mobile, you may reply by sending me message together with your number so I can revert back my new Globe and Sun numbers. Thank you!

Birthday Greetings: Charles “Nicky” Bustamante and Mark Jason Chua

 

Another ordinary day for me, well except for another yummy lunch we had at, once again, Koreano – one that is located in Makati Avenue. Of course, never we went there without ordering Sam Gyup Sal, Korean Beef Stew, Dak Gui and their “expensive” thick rice. (Php 50.00 per rice is something hah). Although this time, we brought in another new cast – Ms. Ana Queppet, joined us. She’s one of Zenith Opti clients, but above all, a family friend, how small the world we live in right? Anyway, what’s new here is we ordered shrimp and this Korean fried egg (mukhang tortang itlog lang na mahal ulit, hehe). We all loved that lunch, and of course, it will not be perfectly complete without the super sweet Orange cuts that they serve after every meal. I’m beginning to love oranges, I dunno, I just love it.

 

Gone back at the office at around 2pm. Oh dear, not again, that “sleepy” feeling is again attacking. This usually happens right after a yummy lunch.

 

It’s media day today. I normally go out when they called out, but this time I need to hide as I got so many stuff lined up to finish. I sometimes go gaga whenever I go out to pee and be cornered by friends from networks. Of course I cannot just ignore and take them for granted, so what I do… I’ll do my thing and prepare myself for an hour of business-chika, with different people. They are nice actually although there are those who are new to my eyes but hey, I cannot blame them as they are just doing their jobs. You know what, sometimes I pity those oldie AEs that go at the office and ask for business, I want so much to give them one but times like this, it’s really hard to push for something that isn’t just right or media values bought because of pity. Well, I just pray that God give them media persons that will need their “products”.

 

Another topic. I just found a new sister who likes shoes! One of our media reps, who became close to me na rin is also a shoe addict. I showed her my new baby, tri-color heeled shoes, and she liked it. Best buy she told! I am happy cause I snag a cool and worthy pumps, which by the way I call – AE Shoes haha! Why? Because I always AEs wear that, beats all media people who are comfy wearing their trusted jeans and suppliers shirt/jackets… hehehe. Going back, I have plans naman of buying Converse one of these days, but I ain’t sure yet what design shall I choose, or if I will settle for Chucks or Pony. I kinda like the two. Hmm.. Help? I am also wondering if I need to wear AE dress too, but I am afraid that I’m throwing some money na because of this unplanned buys.

 

It’s happening; Unni (sister in Korean language) is transferring to our group. Happy because we will be free to do work without her being “nasisita” by her immediate boss – that usually happens that’s why some work are done at night to get away from confrontation. I also mentioned the used to be possible Cebu trip, which is IMPOSSIBLE now. Huhu! I wanted pa naman to go out this weekend as I am not used to be just in the house doing nothing (well apart from snoozing – most loved hobby).

 

Raining hard outside now. I am wondering if my boypz was able to go home safe and dry, at least. He’s not the type that brings umbrella so I expect that he’s again, drenched – just take him away from sickness Lord.

 

Day ended well and I just can’t wait to reach Friday! J

 

 

 

 

Weird things I wanna try at least once!

Take a break from your usual stuff, pause and think of those weird things that you wanna do while young or while alive at least. I got tons of those. Some I already did try and others are still running in my mind if I should give a shot or not. So, while waiting for my friends to come over, I ponder, what are the weird things that I wanna, "kahit one time lang"....

 

I'll start the list:

 

1) Matulog sa underpass ng Quiapo...- I just want to feel what it's like to be one of them. I pity but not to the point I give them money. I just feel sad to those people who look capable but chose to live a life like that. Perhaps they have reason why and that reason is something I'd like to understand.

 

2) Maging "Barker" ng Jeep - Nothing, I just want to try and exercise my "public speaking" hahaha! I want to take control of the whole scenario (oh galaw-galaw, sa kanan miss,... usog sa kaliwa "with matching" dalawang hampas sa gilid ng jeep).

 

3) Sumali sa Takeshi Castle - I just want to hurt myself and have some (or lots) of laughs!

 

4) Ma-confine, madextrose, and bed rest (nang di naman malala ang sakit) - i just want my friends to drop by and be with me and those who are really close to me to be extra sweet while I am sick. Hehehe!

 

5) Go Invisible - So I can steal a moment at Celine’s.. oh no… Kris Aquino’s wardrobe (so I can try her stuff, especially those expensive ones hahahah! para kasya like shoes and clothes unlike Celine’s hehe!)

 

6) Learn David Blaine’s magic and do it to people around Baclaran. – Para “A”, no need to speak in English unlike DB, and “B”, wala lang, galing na ko sa Quiapo sa item no. 1 eh. Hehe!

...Itutuloy....

D-Day! BCC Kool Blue Party

March 14, 2009. Saturday.

Woke up early, around 8am. Liked the cool breeze of Baguio.

Others are already up, preparing breakfast for the group. We had egg (my ultimate favorite), Spanish sardines, which I surprisingly liked, yummy pancakes and usual coffee, Nescafe. Finished preparing at around 11am, me and unni went straight to Baguio Country Club to meet Sir Vic and ask for the prod pass for the car. Afterwhich we had to go to Klite to pick up the remaining prod passes, which we again delivered to the EDI team in Baguio. The EDI boys are complete (well almost) this time. I got to feel the set up, which was nicely done, for me. Although the boys asked if we can still stay and chat a little but our hungry tummies are asking us to split and grab a lunch! Takaw.

It’s 430pm, Agnes, Cyp and Jon, decided to go out to buy something to eat for dinner – Sinigang got the most votes! We were like a family (or more like a PBB…. Celebrity participants) eating together. At the strike of 6pm, everyone’s tensed as we need to be in the venue a little early than the exact event time. We arrived at 7pm and then there were the EDI boys and client. Familiar faces. Party feel. I just can’t wait to start the party.

I was a little agitated in the first hour of the event. The venue isn’t filled up as we are expecting. There are those who came but don’t want to stay inside the ballroom. The cold breeze adds to the jitters I am feeling. At 10pm, there people start to invade the room. I am a party person; I love dancing and just enough drinking. Client saw our “kulit” so he told us to just dance in the ledge to invite other people to dance too! A little embarrassed though, but hey remember the saying, dance like no one’s watching (they don’t know me anyway, so why bother).

 

 

Great that the party just went smoothly as planned. Baguio bagets, they rock, they really know how to party hard!

Nevada, we also visited. We reached the place around 130am with aching stomach because of “starvation”. 

Hahah! I grabbed an inihaw na liempo, which took like years before it got cooked. Again, I had egg in it. Love it. After the eating, we head straight to Acid, one more drink and we are solved.

330am. Home (slash hotel). Tired, yes. Inspired, a little. Disappointed quite. Expecting, so-so. Happy, yeah!

Friday the 13th, March 2009

Thank God it’s payday weekend this time. I know I do not have that huge tax return but I am pretty sure that I have enough cash to let me live for another two weeks. Well, I still got some here, which I intend to use for a new phone. Although it’s 13^th of Friday, I am not that afraid to go around and find something interesting. While everyone’s busy doing all those work thingy that needs to be finished by end COB, me I got the chance to split in the office quite early than usual to attend a somewhat meeting with client slash activity (vaccination) for one of the most known non-profit organizations here in the country. Since it’s a vaccination activity, it involves…none other than…needles! I like needles, weird but I do like it when I am getting those blood tests. Told my client about that liking and she asked why not I get a tattoo since it involves a lot of needle nipping, I sorta like the idea but nahh, I don’t see myself sacrificing my skin for that stuff…well not I got an offer from those handsome Miami Ink boys. (Flirting…hahah!)

 

 

Going back, I just have these little voices pushing and telling me to go spend…I badly need a new phone, I need to buy a new office bag as my current nice red and purple is already torn. I like to have a pair of chucks. I have to start looking for an orthodontist who will do my braces; my pearly whites are starting to give me troubles these past few months. Oh my, these are only half from the list that I want to accomplish. I can clearly imagine how much money I will again burn just to quench my thirst to spend. I went straight to Greenhills after our shoot, my plan, beat that cellphone drama! Once there, I went straight to that mobile mecca and started to look for Mimay, pretty storeowner who sells nothing but the best mobile. (Nice Mimay, free advertisement for you hahaha!) Looks like “Bro” is guiding me and wanted me to buy that mobile, Mimay has transferred to a new unit but luckily I still able to find her, talking about destiny right?! I asked her if she can still fix my other mobile, which got broken because it thousand times fell off my hand. Not so good news, it was totally ruined, in short, it’s just a trash! Thought my mobile dream will just fade away, but not! I spotted this P900i, yeah I know it is last seasons but hey, that was the exact phone I am dying to have (last year, yeah). It’s good bargain, almost new and the price, so cheap (cheaper than what I really wanted now, E63 red or white). I tested it and Mimay just told that it’s actually new and it already has buyers in line although none has paid for DP or to buy the phone. Cut story short, I got it for some thousands. Not bad price for a very stylish and useful mobile.

 

Talking about shopaholic, everytime I pass through the stuff I wanted, shoes, bags and kikay thingies, I keep asking myself, do I need these? Well, sad to say…YES! I need these!... I was actually looking for comfy flip-flops because my feet is killing me, those high heels I wore were not friendly you know, when I saw this gray velvety boots, super nice. I wore and I feel sudden change with my self confidence. Hahaha! Defensive. It’s really sweet actually. I so love it that I didn’t have any choice but to buy it. Besides, I can still wear it at the office. Enough with those cheapie shoes that gave me terrible blisters! I also got new flip-flop…and it’s PINK! I also got some accessories that I think best worn with the booths. I love this day!! It’s like I rewarded myself for those sleepless nights because of work. By the way, by this late evening, my gang will go off to the mountains again to monitor the event. Although we made to Baguio a little late than expected, blame that EDSA traffic, still I am glad we have settled there safe and sound.

 

I really wish this day will never end…
