some people claim that they know me better than myself, this is how they tell me "i should be part of your life"

i knew it!
i knew it! magnify

a close friend told me to say these words before i sleep..."helloo tamarow! " it is from an AVON commercial daw with matching slang accent pa un (ayun plugging.. uhm AVON check or fund transfer will do), tapos he bid me good night and says happy birthday one last time! ahaha sounds romantic noh? pero platonic un! he's more like a brother to me. chempre as a trusting friend that i am, i did say the words before i sleep, pero it sounded more like a mantra rather than a commercially slang type like the one on the ad, kasi nman i'd look silly in bed with an odd accent trying hard to be in a comercial. i fell asleep at 12:07am of Dec 7... how did i know the time? i saw the time when i've set the alarm in my phone at 6:45am and fell asleep right after. i need to wake up early kasi magsisimba ako sa 8am mass at St. John's to start my day with God, thank Him for keeping me alive and blessed everyday. hehe... in case you didn't notice the coincidence... 12:07am in 12/07 date hehe nice noh?? i knew it right there and then that it will be a great day!

i woke up 45mins earlier than my alarm. Got up singing with Lighthouse Family's Ocean Drive (thanks ate kel for the copy i really appreciate the song since then). i soo love the beat of this song it's calming and the lyrics excerpt --Suns gonna shine on everything you do-- these words sums up what happened the whole day. i've put on a purple dress (second sunday of advent kasi) i've got from a sale and some bling... check out the pic! haha talagang may picture eh. meet up with Nette, my fellow vaklush friend, Nette who's nice and giddy greeting me. ang lola may binabalak palang kakaiba after mass. I asked her na punta kami sa mall to get a chocolate indulgence cake from secret recipe pero ang bad nila they almost pushed me out of the door saying they're not open until 11am hmmm talk about bad customer service. parang haller 10:50am na, they have only 10min to spare. anyway that's just the other side of the story God pretty much knew something more special for me. now i know why Nette keeps saying "mauna ka na Ruzz alam ko marami ka pang gagawin" hehe kaya pala ha! pasensya na Nette i made you have to go back to get that cute starbucks chocolate cake. thank you so much with matching flashy eyes itech ha! i'm killing time kasi i got no plans for the day pero thankful ako kasi sinamahan mo ko sa kakulitan ko for buying a 15RM Christmas tree with lights and ribbons. cheap but cute enough pra sa TV counter namen sa house. ayun umuwi nako decorate the tree then bundle up some gifts then fell asleep. i went up to the 28th floor for Nette's pasta lunch invite pero na-surprise ako... turns out it's not only pasta, she whip up some cordon bleu (actually her mom made it) and a nice tasty buttered bread. at ang pasta! i love pasta but honestly this is far most the best tuna penne in red sauce that i've tasted and now adored! Winner ang pasta mo! thanks sa take out (i was thinking of keeping it for myself hehe pero chempre masunurin ako hahatian ko si mammy don't worry) at thank you for the chocolate cake with the pink candle na idea ni Nat (Nette's Bug im not sure if i've heard it right pero un ung cute pen name nia). After that lunch i went home cause my mom has been flooding my phone with funny voice mails. but there's one that totally goofed me out, a screaming happy birthday greeting from her with my dad and sibs on the background. thanks ma! and happy birthday too! Dec 8 is her birthday and yes we have consecutive birthdays. called them up to thank them and chat a little about me going back to the islands, Philippines that is. hehe excited to spend the holidays with them.

thanks again to those who remembered and thanks too for those who have joined me through my 24 years of existence!

i'm 25 and fabulous! that's how i wished my silver year to be... be Fabulous! i'm looking foward to more years with family and friends. more blessings and great times. this again will be a year of love, laugh and full of life!

judgement day!
aminado ako may pagkapintasera ako ero i chose people whom i'll tell my opinions. for the reason that some people may not understand my point of view. prang haller! every individual is entitled to have their own opinion... walang pakialaman! kaso un ang mahirap, we can't just not make pakialam with others' opinion kasi naman why bother to tell kung ayaw mong mapagusapan? am i ryt? or am ryt? i recently told someone that whenever you judge or get judged, tell yourself that "things aren't always what they seem". syempre sa side nung ni-judge prang the hell how people perceive me, eh i know myself better than them, if they see me that way well thank you at least napansin niyo ko. while sa side naman nung nagjudge they just see things on how they perceived it... in short bias, one-sided. my professor in college once said that "people have different perception on a single subject". explaining further, pag tumayo ka sa harap ng bahay nio ang nkikita mo lang is the usual front door, windows or gates(if meron). while if you stand in your backyard you'll see another thing. obviously there's a difference on both sides but both were referencing the same house. people tend to see things differently. what is good for one may not always be good for anybody. the same thing with... what's trashy to one may be a treasure to someone else. judging is just one sign na matatalino tayong nilalang, well compared to any other species that's existing in this planet. we can't see two lions growling at each others fur because one has better than the other. or one earthworm who blushed whenever it's told that she crawl sexier than another earthworm. judging is part of our daily lives! at the end of the day we just have to be careful how we express our thoughts since as humans we also have feelings.

daydreamin'

this is my certified pass time. some people think it's a waste cause instead of doing something valuable and meaningful, i get my piece of bliss through wishful thinkings. masarap mag-imagine lalo na pag walang ginagawa sa office... what's great about daydreaming??? i make myself widely awake for hours! saving me from being caught drooling over my office table or browsing into shopping sites or walking around like a runway model. di ko pa naman dinadalasan maglalalakad baka kasi mapagdiskatahan ako ni 'amo' at bigyan ng sangkatutak na trabaho.

i love the beach! i'd like to beach hop from Philippines' finest beaches... boracay, palawan, camiguin, pagudpud, siargao... to the jawdropping carribean sea... barbados, antigua, bahamas, haiti! spending weekends with my family or friends lazying around, enjoying a tropical drink, talking until sundown and laughing through the wee hours. if it's one of those so called intimate trips, the beach is one of my ultimate romatic date. parang ung mga napapanuod sa mga comercials na mega habulan pa with matching getup tpos sunkissed skin. oo corny pero umamin ka naisip mo din un.

i'd like to drive a convertible car... roadtrip till i get tired of driving or until wala ng pangasolina. having my hair blown aback, wearing my fave sunglasses, singing Overdrive ung kanta ng disbanded Eraserheads! endless chicha with friends in the backseat or a lover beside me... ieeeww lover talaga eh! sounds old school... ero for sure real good times!

i'd like to become a jetsetter by profession. ung tipong i'll be in Paris doing a documentary telling viewers how pretty the place is. Lunch on Sydney and coffee in Guatemala... where the coffee beans from Starbucks were labeled so susundan ko un how it's made until mailagay sa market package. tpos daan ako sa night safari ng Africa, dining with wild animals ang drama. then watch the sun rise in Tahiti. the only thing i will complain is the limited time i got to shop at each country i visited.

Try living in palace with all the luxuries it can offer. long dining table that requires a rotating center where food are placed and a phone for each of anyone who's dining with me. a hallway that leads to a number of rooms. ung tipong bawat room may iba't ibang theme, may amusement park... wave pool and lap pool and hot spring and big jaccuzi... sports center na may rock climbing at cycling area... a closet that may be mistaken as a mall pero siyempre everything that's in there are free... a home theatre with 3D feature that can accomodate 10 people with cozy seats na good as bunk beds... an ice cream store where all flavors and delicious toppings are infinitely arranged in rows... mcdonalds na pwede kong madala friends and family ko like nung Ritchie Rich 1994 movie at pwede akong magpaburger to anyone who says 'pacheeseburger ka nman!' gaya ng bagong sa comercial Pinas. hay... mapapasabi ka ng 'this is the layp!'

Be on amazing-race-ish trip with my friends... ung tipong travel around Pinas in 30 days. all expense paid pero may unting requirement. that is bring a memorabilla, show picture and eat well known delicacy in the place we've been in. Documenting every little thing we sensed! tpos after ng Pinas next stop Asia!

o kitams 7:36am na... i get through the shift just by daydreaming! unting minutes na lang pauwi and sleep to dream all that i've daydreamed. it's great to daydream minsan it's like helping me get by with a little help of imagination. hay bukas ulit!

spotlight

i had an odd interview kanina... odd kasi eto ung tinatawag ni mammy alma na getting to know session sa newbie ng house who's obviously me! oh well chempre medyo uncomfortable dahil you're put on spotlight at may overlapping questions pa galing kay manong jess. it's hard revealing yourself to someone though confident nako to share dahil past na yon so most of my answers brief but true. eto some of questions that i remembered ero ung mga answers ko elaborate ko na lang here kase when i answered the questions para akong litong nakadroga dahil wala pang tulog. confidential na ung mga side comments strictly for housemates na lang un!

nagka-casino ka na naman? anu-anong nisusubscribe mo? dinadownload? ilang gig ba yan? anu-anong mga nakasave dyan?
di, wala kong sinusubscribe may nisasave kase kong mga movies, 2GB, larong bata lang po nilalaro ko, puzzles and words walang porn subscription or anupaman. Merun kasi kong sangkatutak na MP3s at Pictures na iniingatan ni Casey (ang aking pink vaio laftaf oo may pangalan siya, wak na kumontra) yoko naman ma-addict sa role playing games kasi napapanaginipan ko tapos nagigising akong stressed dahil di ako makapanalo.

nagkaboypren ka na? ilan? yung serious lang ha? ilang taon ka nung una? so 4 years kau nung last boypren mo?
oo, mga tatlo, may dalawang bf akong tumagal ng 4years, almost 2years ung last relationship ko. aktuali dapat 4 BFs yan kaso di ko ni-count ung isa since di naman worth to be serious un, on and off lang kame pero ung relationship na un is a great adventure. daming first na nangyari... kung anong first? TMTH. yung last ex ko we're still communicating prang MU-ish... daming possibilities ero i'm keeping my options open (haha as if merung options eh noh?) ero singlehood muna.

*TMTH - too much to handle

ilan kaung magkakapatid? pang ilan ka? puro kayo babae?
3 panganay ako, pwede ng babae kame lahat pa-gurl kase ung middle though parang may identity crisis pa siya, 12 pa lng ung bunso magti-13 this July. anak ako sa first boypren ng mom ko, so malaki agwat namen ng sumunod sken mga 10 years din. pero the good part is she found the man who loves her no matter what even if she have me.

naglayas ka? ganun din mom mo? baket?
maagang nagliwaliw mom ko ero i know that's something she's not proud of kaya as much as possible ayaw niyang magaya ako sa kanya. alam kong i disappointed her when i walked away after college pero di ko ginaya footsteps nia, i graduated and became responsible for myself. she may not told me her story why she ran away before for the reason na di niya yun pinagmamalaki, naintindihan ko un now and i don't judge her for what she did instead i love her for taking responsibility for her actions and dealing with the consequences. di ko masasabing naging sukatan un ng pagiging mabait niyang anak sa mga grannies ko but i commend her for the courage that she unknowingly taught me that is "to stand on what i believe in and take responsibilities for my actions". alam niya sa sarili niyang di man siya katalinuhan pero she wants me to be the best that i can be. chempre intelligence is incurred yun ang principle ko, i finished school at di man niya sabihin i know that she's proud of what i have become. i somehow agree with the saying "kung anong ginawa mo sa magulang mo, yun din gagawin ng mga anak mo sayo" for the thought of parehas kaming naglayas pero at the end of the day things do change. keeping in mind what you wanna become, you can change your future through what you're doing now unless you wanna commit the same previously made mistakes. so much for elaboration ero lulubusin ko na... i'm afraid na ulitin ng magiging anak ko ung cycle na 'to pero one thing's for sure i'll help her not to.

remember we're once a child

find bliss in a pouch of candy
come alive with strike of colors
see tiny things with big thoughts
