Severe Headache.. Not!

I was absent for work today. Hurah! I texted our boss at around 10am already. Haha! I had nothing else to reason out but "I have a severe headache". I was writing the text message for 'bout 10 minutes, thinking of a "sick leave" reason. Bwahaha! He didn't reply. But I know he received my message. I guess silence means yes (or okay?) So anyway...

After the text message, I went to back to sleep. Told you I was sick.. Sick to get up early in the morning, that is. Plus, it's to early to get ready for my lunch/day date with my H.S girlfriends. I didn't set up the alarm and guess what? I woke up at 12pm! To think I had to be in Glorietta by 12:30pm.. Lol! Oh my.. I was late as always. Good thing they were late also. I took a speedy shower and drank milo. I even chose what I'm going to wear. Do I have to be girly girly or shirt-jeans-flipflops would be okay? But I was guessing they were wearing casual office attire so I gotta look like formalish too. Good thing my semi-new flowy brown blouse and a pair of jeans were ironed and ready. My problem then was the shoes I'm going to wear. Hmmm.. I know! I'm gonna wear my newly bought brown gladiator flats to go with my outfit. (I just bought it yesterday with my hon) *wink wink*

We met up in Freeway store. I was quite shocked on how they look now. Lara and Celine got thin na! I was like.. "Waaah! You guys look great!" They just smiled at me and said that they were starving. Lara was craving for pasta. We went to Spaghetti Factory. Celine and I liked what we ordered and Lara got disappointed on her Lasagna. While having lunch, we talked about what's happening with our busy lives, lovelife and reminiscing our high school lives in Sanago. Haha! It felted like we were in a Sex and the City scene (Well, except minus 1 character which was suppose to be Laureen!). Celine gotta go back to her office so kami na lang ni Lara natira. Bonding! Lol! Mega WINDOW shopping galore...just like old times. :) Then, we decided to watch a movie "Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants 2". Aww.. another story about 4 girlfriends. It was a nice and simple movie.

At 6:30pm, we had to part ways na. She has to meet up with Vic and as for me, I gotta go visit my Honey in his office. I walked a long way, from Glorietta to Valero street. Whew! My feet got really tired because I wasn't wearing my comfortable footwear. Now I learned that those gladiator sandals weren't meant for long walks. So anyway, Honey treated me for dinner at Chilly Peppers (Tama ba spelling?) near their office building. I was starving that time and boy, that very tasty porkchop satiates my hunger. (Thanks Hon!:)) Hon have to go and work again (would you believe that the meal he ate was his lunch AND dinner).. Poor hon, he was so busy at work that he forgot to eat na. :| Tsk tsk.. It was, I guess my fault 'coz I was so enjoying our gimik that I didn't even say hi and ask if he already ate lunch. Bad girlfriend me.

My day turned out fine. Me not working in the office, had a long sleep ('till 12pm), catched up with my H.S girlfriends and a scrumptious dinner with my Honey.

*wink wink*

53rd! :)

Another 1st day of the month and this means a celebration for me and my honey! Yesterday was our 53rd month! :)

I was feeling so cheesy that day especially while I was in my workplace. I played love songs whole morning, made a testimonial/comment on his friendster page, and had a YM status message saying "happy one!:)". I also spent hours searching the internet for ideas on what gift should I buy for my honey. As I was "googling", I've stumbled upon a girl's blog. An entry says something like "There are many ways of expressing LOVE. It doesn’t always have to be a gift." and "Gifts shouldn't always be in material things". So I said to myself, "Oo nga naman..". So I decided to head to the salon after work. Magpapaganda na lang ako for my hon! I wanna change my 'do again, shop for girly girl clothes, etc. I'm sooo sure he'll appreciate it more than a bar of chocolate. I had my hair chopped at Mary Pauline Salon. Minsan lang ako magpagupit so why not go in a beauty salon that would provide quality service right? I feel breezy with my hairstyle now. I bid goodbye to my previous boring-and-thick-looking hair. After my hair treatment, I went window shopping. Window shopping that led me to purchase 2 girly blouses.. Haha!

Before meeting up with mah hon, I fixed myself in the ladies room. I really want him to notice the look and good thing he actually did. Yay!

Time to eat dinner so we went to Greenbelt 5 to look for a nice resto. Nice and classy place.. We even saw Kris Aquino and James Yap! Wah starstuck! Lolz! Moving along, we didn't felt like eating there that time. We want to eat something heavy but yummy too. Steak is the answer! We headed for National Sports Grill! I've heard steaks there are highly recommend! Hmm.. It was tasty alright, probably the best tasting steak we've tried! We also tried their minor league angel pasta. I would say the dinner was superb.. not to mention we were watching a replay of the Pacquiao-Diaz fight in a huge screen. How cool and exciting is that?


We went home at around 12am already.. After a long walk along Pasay Road, we decided to grab a cup of frappucino at Starbucks. Dark Mocha Frap is such a delight! I lurrrve it! Last night was a blast.. Another memorable night with my one and only. *goes chessy again* Lolz!

Sex and the City: The Movie

I finally saw Sex and the City last night! (I couldn't wait any further, my high school friends kept me hanging!) So, I made my Honey watch the movie with me.. Good thing meron pa sa G4! You would think that by now, 2 weeks later, on a Wednesday night no less, there won't be that many people. But no. It was still a full house! The moviehouse was packed full of women that probably brought their girlfriends with them. Haha!


I suppper luurrvvee the movie!

I always watch the TV show back then in HBO.. and I have to say that the movie was a long version of the TV series but the much waaay much better and bolder!

I can't help but blurt my favorite parts from the movie: (in no particular order)
WARNING: Spoilers ahead!!
  • Vogue magazine pictorial: those bridal gowns are just gorgeous! Carrie was like a sophisticated and fab barbie doll
  • The opening scene: Carrie was walking down the street wearing a white dress with a big flower
  • The night before the wedding "slumber"/"bachelorette" party: how the 4 girls share stories and insights about Carrie and Big's lovelife
  • Take and Toss: the 3 girls helped Carrie decide if the dress she has should be kept or not.. As Carrie fashion showed her dresses, the 3 girls act as judges.
  • Charlotte's very angry line for Big: "I curse the day you were born." And then her water broke.
  • The bridal entourage dress: I like Charlotte's black dress! It reminds me of Morticia Addams (the mom from "The Addams Family") but Charlotte's dress is nicer and fashionable. Lolz!
  • The diamond flower ring of Samantha: How she wanted it so bad and she lost the auction 'coz she only has a limit of $50,000. Then she knew that Smith won the auction so He could give it to Samantha as 5th year anniversary gift to Samantha.
  • Their trip to Mexico: I find it cute and sweet knowing your friends are always there for you especially when you're emotionally down..
  • Samantha's comment on Miranda's natural forest: "Wax much?"
  • How can I forget the walk-in closet? Wah! I think most of the girls would love to have one.. Well, I do! :p
I actually love most of the scenes! Hindi ba masyadong halata? Hehe! Hate ko lang yung mga cuts! Badtrip eh, 'di inayos yung pagkakaputol. Anyhow, SATC would definitely be in my list of my most favorite movies for 2008. I'll just probably wait for about a month and cross my fingers for it to be available for a DVDrip download. Ha!

Congrats to Whitney!

I watched ANTM (America's Next Top Model) Cycle 10 Finale last night and I'm glad that Whitney won! If you've been browsing on my previous entries, I stated that my personal picks are Katarzyna, Lauren, Anya and Claire. Well, It's good to know Anya made it to the Top Two. From the beginning, I really felt she could make it. Unfortunately, something went wrong on the runway-slash-battle of the two models. Sure Anya is beautiful and look incredible in photos but on the runaway, she became stiff and felt uncomfortable. I think I would blame the 2 gowns (which are hand-picked by Donatella Versace by the way). Anya's gowns were too long and tight that it's so hard to walk in! But then, she should have walked on the runway with poise and style. As for Whitney, her dresses looks comfy and really flowy. I love the 2nd pink dress and how she worked that runway with flare!

Whitney is the first full figured, juicy, plus size winner of America's Next Top Model. Whitney is such a beautiful girl and it's about time that America's Next Top Model showed that it's okay to have a little extra weight. Congrats Whitney!
