Lifehouse 2.0, M & Today
I just love this week that passed, this weekend, everything about it.
My friend M rose from a long FB pause. Well it's not that FB is a priority but he completely spaced out for a while. I'm just happy he loves his independence now, loves life in general. Apir dear!
I should work now, time will be in a haste today I know. Rhei and I will paint Makati pink (for kikay).
Happy weekend boys & girls! God bless us all!

***JOEY***
JOEY
******
I call Joey as the Julio ng buhay ko, yep Julio at Julia kambal ng tadhana. I dunno why this fellow seems to know a lot about me. I am so transparent in his eyes that he can see through me. There was this one instance before that he seems to understand me more than my girl friends. And just recently, he told Gabs that he thinks I like this one guy cos my eyes were different when I look at the guy. Grabe, I am so buking in front of Joey, kaya friend here’s to you – you deserve a shout out. Thanks for waiting with me last Friday, you don’t talk much but it was fun hanging out with you & babe watching is cool I guess, hehehe ginawa mo talaga akong lesbo. Natutuwa talaga ako sayo.

Rainy Days and Fridays
I woke up feeling fine, kissed the hubby bye bye, drove to the office with breeze & positivity. Arrived in the office, thought of brewing a pot of coffee which I don’t do often. It’ll be instant coffee if I’m in a hurry but since I’m feeling good I decided to brew a pot but then I realized my boss (another coffee drinker) is not coming in. I don’t want to drown in brewed coffee the whole day.
I’m still feeling good. Answered all the emails I received from last night. After 30 minutes and since it’s still early I logged on to the social networking sites. Everyone is happy as well, it’s Friday who would not be – almost the weekend – hooray!
And then it struck me how I hate Fridays lately. I miss going out. It’s not about being married that hinders me from going out, or is it?
To make myself clear (I don’t want to sound whiny so I want to explain this) I can go out as much as I want and my husband wouldn’t stop me if it’s what makes me happy. He would happily obliged to accompany me as I hang out with friends if I want to. Or if he’s not in town, I just informed him that I’m going out and it’s okay. You see I’m blessed with an open minded husband, even when we were still boyfriends-girlfriends he didn’t attempt to stop me from seeing my friends or stay out late once in a while, because he knows what I’m up to, who I’m with and everything else that comes with it.
So what’s my problem? It’s the fact that the friends I usually hang out with are nowhere to be found. Out of the country, busy doing single ladies things, or maybe just don’t want to spend time with me. I understand 1 & 2 but the third I cannot. I am not saying that I am the most fun to be with friend, in fact I’m not. I’m boring and I only do old lady things like read, watch movies or talk over a cup of coffee. I know I am not the person you go to when you want to have fun but I know I can be the person you want to talk to when there’s something bothering you or you have nothing important to do (okay the last one hurts a little, it’s like I’m the last choice friend but I can live with that).
With all these yakety yak and without any point trying to prove, I just want not to hate Fridays, that’s all. I just want it to be normal. It may not be my favorite day because all I want for it to do is to end. I know it all depends on me but it still makes me sad.
Yes Rainy Days & Fridays makes me sad. The End.

Dreams, that's where I have to go
to see your beautiful face anymore
I stare at a picture of you and listen to the radio
Hope, hope there's a conversation
we both admit we had it good but
until then it's alienation, I know, that much is understood
And I realize
CHORUS:
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for two
and finally I'm forced to face the truth
No matter what they say, I'm not over you
Not over you
Damn, damn girl you do it well
And I thought you were innocent
You took this heart and put it through hell
But still you're magnificent
I I'm a boomerang doesn't matter how you throw me
Turn around and I'm back in the game
Even better than the old me
But I'm not even close without you
CHORUS:
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for two
and finally I'm forced to face the truth.
No matter what I say, I'm not over you
BRIDGE:
And if I had the chance to renew
You know there isn't a thing I wouldn't do
I could get back on the right track
But only if you'd be convinced
So until then
CHORUS:
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for two
and finally I'm forced to face the truth
No matter what I say, I'm not over you
Not over you
Not over you
Not over you

I Miss You
I miss blabbing and musing about all things under the sun.
You see I am getting hitched in less than 80 days so my time is pretty devoted to preparations. We started early and I thought by this time I'll be chillaxing, watching my favorite tv shows but boy I am so wrong. Although everything is under control and I have never been a bridezilla yet, just thinking about things that still needs to be done stresses me. Maybe I really need to start practicing the mantra " let go and let God".
My birthday month was pretty awesome, I just want to share it with you because you know I always have birthday jitters every year - the price for growing old. But it was different this year, because of my busy schedule I didn't have the time to mope and think about how old and senseless the new year of my life would be. Well that's typical drama queen me but this year was really fun. People Tells me all the time that this is the last birthday I'll celebrate being single.
My sister and my nephew Johann travelled all the way from Bicol to spend a few days here. My best friend travelled a few thousand miles (yep from Singapore) to spend my birthday week with me. My closest friends and dear loved ones were all here. My Panget was here too and gave me the thing that I really wanted (he bought me the SLR cam I wanted which surprised me because he said we'll buy it next year).
I am so blessed, last night I was able to contemplate upon realizing it's the last quarter of the year already. 2012 is already waving at me. 2011 has been so far nice to me. He stayed true to his part of the bargain. Before this year started I asked that he be friendlier and nicer to me unlike the other years and he did, 2011 was really my year. I know it was not perfect, I had a lot of silent angst about my career and work life but God is good I'll be blessed because I know I have worked hard everyday for the company. Money is tight but the drought too shall pass. I am thankful that my parents are fine, their health are not perfect but okay. I am blessed, I believe and I have it in my heart because God is with me.
So there I updated you, I really miss talking to you but be assured that you are never forgotten. I am hoping to write more next year. I intend to travel more and try new exciting things next year so you an I will have a lot of stories to discuss. Please don't be sad okay, I am just here. Bear with me for the time being and let me enjoy my being a princess soon.
I gotta go now my blog, will write more soon. I really miss you and don't go anywhere okay. I'll write more soon.
Love,
Anne

Harry Potter 7.1 @ Newport City Ultra Cinema
It was my first time inside the Newport City Mall and Resorts World Casino. I can’t rave about the interior design of the mall/casino since I have already been to a number of Casinos in Macau, the Venetian included. Venetian Macau was even featured on National Geo so needless to say it is really awesome. Plus I was with my architect/designer friend so I believe Jo when he says that the design was bland.
The ultra Cinema’s lazy boy chairs and unlimited popcorn & soda concept is nice just like in the other cinemas like Gateway & Shangri-la. But something is not right with the Ultra Cinema screen, the distance of the screen from the first row was small that even when you stretch the chair into a bed (hehehe yes we were lounging, as in higa kung higa) it is still a little difficult watching.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 1 of two is amazing (all HP movies for me are amazing because they do not alter the story so much, it is presented the way it was narrated from the book). I love the part on how the story of the 3 brothers was depicted. And year by year I grow to love the Ron-Hermione love team. I can still hear Ron’s words in my ears when he asked Harry not to leave, he said that they won’t last 2 days without Hermione pausing then saying “don’t tell her I said that”. I was just a little disappointed that Dumbledore’s exposure on part 1 is too little. In the book even if he’s already a ghost (he was sort of just being talked about by the those who survived) he’s always there. I just wish I’ll see more of him on part 2.
In conclusion, HP3 Prisoner of Azkaban the movie is still my favourite. I really love that movie but all 7 are nice.
Happy weekend boys and girls. Happy monthsary baby!

eatpraylove
I was driving to work early this morning when the topic for the radio show I frequently listen to is to complete the sentence “I _________eat_______, I pray that _________ and I love________”. The topic was of course inspired by the book turned movie starring Julia Roberts, Eat Pray Love.
I have been dying to write news here for some time now, I had a birthday week, W & my bestfriend Luchie was in town and me and my boyps Mark & Yong are closer than ever. Of course there’s this celeb with my J girls and 2 get togethers with friend Jo (in 2 weeks we met twice, this is shocking knowing how busy he is). The bookfair, expos, John Mayer rainy concert, the preps and other stuff. I have a full schedule every week that I wasn’t able to jog anymore or watch the 1st 2 episodes of TARA 4 (I was able to watch the rerun of the 2nd epi though). Not that I’m complaining but I’m glad I am not stressed – yet.
Sad to say I cannot discuss EAT in a very colourful and enticing manner. The actual topic for EAT is actually the NOT part as in I am not eating for the past 1 & a half week already. Me and my loyal dietmate Rovs is on our nth attempt at SBD. Our first SBD was really successful, it was 2 years ago our next attempts failed miserably and this time I can say we may not be that successful (again) on weight loss but it is working for us. So for the eating part I am not happy. How I miss to munch junk food and sweets. The rice I don’t miss that much but the bread! I see them every morning, the chocolates, I see them every night. But no pain no gain right? Plus it is not healthy so I am now anti-carbo loading, calories shoving and sugar infusion. I don’t know where this ambitious attempt to be healthy will take me but nevertheless there is no harm in trying.
I PRAY for a lot of things lately. I pray for my family, their safety and health. I pray for my job, my colleagues, my friends. And when I pray I thank the Lord for the blessings. But the thing I prayed hard for these past few days is for discernment, not over W because I know I’m sure but for the choices that we’re making. The Lord granted me a happy heart and I am truly grateful. I am humbled in saying that it was His will, we are just mere followers. I am continuously praying and hoping that everything will be for the best, every decision is for our happiness.
And LOVE, I love my life and the everyone in it! I just hope the good things never ends.
I am so excited to meet up with friends Rhei & Dines later today. I have this mini project to which I’ll be needing their help and talent. Also I am so thankful to this new egroup I joined, the members have been helping each other big time, as in going out of their ways to find each a better solution and suggestion to everything under the sun. I love the w@wies!
It’s almost the weekend. Bye bye for now but here are some photos from the past week that I would love to share:

Cebu B?

Bantayan Is., Cebu
I don’t care if it’s not a holiday next Friday or on Monday because declared by the gov't or not, I WILL BE ON HOLIDAY!
I am so looking forward to next week’s escapade, so glad that Rhei invited me to go to her hometown, Dines and other good friends will be coming as well plus Boyps. It will be my & W’s first plane ride together (OA as if hours ang flight, so what?). It’s my first time in Cebu and I am so excited with the beach! I can already hear the waves (or was it the humming sound of the air conditioner?). Whatever, I am all set (not packed though I am not that over & eagerly excited naman, I'm trying to control myself).
Please, please St. Clare, don’t let the sun shy away next weekend J

Hell Yeah!!!
I’ve been busy, happy, sad, happy again, stressed, happy, and crazy lately reason why I haven’t posted anything on this blog until today. I am writing this not to announce that I’m back but just to send out love and little recaps of what happened to me in the last 2 months.
After Marinduque, I’ve been to 2 more beaches (Puerto Galera and Bellarocca) with family and friends and one trip to Lucban Quezon to witness the Pahiyas Festival.
Here are some photos that I would like to share.





Still I’m breathing… I would like to say hi to those who still read my craziness. I’m still here lovies, just busy. Happy most of the time, stressed on the other half of those “most of the time”. But still I am blessed. I’ve been with a great family for so & so decades (hehehe secret), in the friendship of one beautiful bestfriend for nearly 2 decades. In the company of real good friends for years & years now, and in love for some 200ish days. Who could ask for more? Eherm, me? Still? Hehehe, Lord knows what my heart desires. Maybe because He thinks I can still handle things that is why I am still here.

Vacation Mode: Pressed ON
My nieces & nephews are all here already that is why 6 pm everyday is the most awaited hour. I cannot wait to go home and cuddle with them. Boyps will be arriving in 2 days as well, in time for the Visita Iglesia that I planned with Ma. Friday will be a prayerful day since it’ll be spent at home with family and a procession in the afternoon. Come Saturday it’ll be spent on the beach (I love the beach!!!) or perhaps just a relaxing day at the spa (still can’t decide, hopefully there’s a beach slot somewhere in Batangas for me and some friends).
I feel guilty thinking and day dreaming about vacations because I just arrived from one. I had a 6 days well spent vacation in SG with my best friend. I promised her that I’ll be with her on her bday and I was, I love the thought that we were both there for each other when we turned 3 oh. The vacation was even lovelier because best bud M stayed true to his promise, he planned a relaxing vacation at the beach. We had an overnight stay at Bintan Lagoon, Indonesia. It's now one of my fave beach, next to Panglao (my ultimate beach favourite) it now occupies the spot formerly held by Boracay.
After tomorrow, I am free. I hope you all enjoy your long weekends. Please remember the real reason why we all have Thursday and Friday off. Take care and God bless.
