A Little Drama in My Otherwise Boring Life
Things have been difficult lately. Not with my personal life but with work. I just can't discuss things here because I choose to always make the sensitive and complicated things in my life concealed from the public. Everything can be googled and you'll never know who's reading your blog.

Like what I've told my friends, I will rise to the challenge and survive in my current job. It's something I've always wanted to do. I will persevere until I gain enough experience and skills to sashay my way to where I deserve to be. I get what I want when I want. I read something from Oprah.com about making a list of things that you should be thankful for. Little things. Big things. It really doesn't matter. Anything that made you happy is worth being grateful for. It could be as simple as having a chocolate doughnut as a treat during lunch or as huge as getting the job you want. Like what Augy said last weekend when we were watching NBA players helping out some Hurricane Katrina survivors. Here we are complaining about every difficult thing in our lives when a lot of people have problems that look insurmountable compared to ours.

Things are not as bleak as what I see them to be. I just have to be more positive. I wouldn't be in this situation and I wouldn't be dealing with this type of person if I can't surpass it. Yes, it will make me stronger. It will teach me some valuable lessons too. It's like going through an obstacle course. When you're a minute away from running and jumping around, you see everything from where you're standing as exhausting and difficult. However, after huffing and puffing your way to the finish line, you realize that no matter how hard things look from the start, you can definitely conquer it. Your mind and body will work together as seamlessly and as gracefully as you can imagine. I expect to look back after a few months with a huge smile plastered on my face. Nobody can bring this bitch down!

My birthday's a few hours away! I can't believe that I'm turning 27. Time goes by really, really fast. That's why I'm enjoying every minute of it. Why bother worrying when you'll only have fine lines and wrinkles instead of results.

Ace will be flying from Hong Kong next month so I am definitely going to see her again. That means dinner with her, Kat and Abbie. I hope Gladz can join us. It will be twice the fun.

I am looking forward to having a late birthday celebration when my dad comes back from Quezon. By that time, we can go swimming with my cousins, Quincy and Jeof.

Quin will be studying in a big school next month. My aunt enrolled her in Roosevelt College. Let's see if she'll have the guts to bully some kids there. Kidding.

A Weekend of Food, Rain and Shopping
For their introductory offer, Country Style sold doughnuts in the office's Coffee Lounge. Buy 1 Take 1! Lucky for me, I passed by the lounge on my way back to my station after my lunch break. The guy who was tasked to promote the cafe told me that they were offering free doughnuts until 7am! Since I won't meet Augy on that day, I decided to buy a dozen doughnuts to take home. I got a dozen free! I planned on buying a cake in Red Ribbon-Imus as a late mother's day present but I decided to just give my mom doughnuts. Two of my officemates were also buying doughnuts. I had only 5 minutes left before my break ends. Kathy was so nice to ask the guy to give me my doughnuts first. Aaaaawwww... I was so touched. I ran all the way from the lounge to our department. My teammates thought I had pizza with me. I told them about the free doughnuts for every purchase you get and they ended up running to the lounge to buy some.

When I got home, the sky was dark and the air was cool. Thank goodness, it didn't rain because I wouldn't be able to manage the umbrella while carrying the doughbut boxes. Gem ate two doughnuts for breakfast. Kit complained because he wanted Krispy Kreme doughnuts. The brat! He ate doughnut after doughnut.
Kit: Walang panama sa Krispy Kreme!
Me: Bakit ang dami mong kinain?
Kit: Tinikman ko lang isa-isa.
Yeah right. He ate a lot. By Monday, only two doughnuts were left.

On Sunday, I went shopping with my mom, lola and Gem. Gem would normally stay home on weekends but he had to go to the mall to have his haircut. My mom and lola went to Robinson's Place Imus ahead of us. I ended up buying two books from Book Sale before meeting up with them at the salon.

Since there were other customers, we decided to go to some boutiques first. I ended up leaving a shop with a bag containing four tops. Haha! I bought Gem and Kit a red Converse bag. I wanted to buy him a coat but all the ones he wanted didn't come in his size. Tsk tsk. We met up with my lola and mom after they went grocery-shopping. I bought Quincy two hair accessories from the Pinkbox.

Now, I'm broke! I can't wait for my payday!

Sleepover

About two weeks ago, I met up with Augy in Market! Market! because we planned to go to the dentist for my checkup. BPI's ATMs were conking out for some reason and we had little cash with us. We had no choice but to hang out in Starbucks first while waiting for an atm to work. Augy's friend was there so I watched them talk while I sipped on my chocolate cream chip frappe and nibbled on my toffee butterscotch bar. After about an hour of waiting, Augy checked the machine and he was able to withdraw money. We then left for Glorietta where we had lunch with his mom. We walked to Gerry's in Parksquare where Tita waited. We found a table in the smoking area. Lunch consisted of garlic rice, sisig and spicy garlic chicken. After eating, we walked around the mall looking for shoes. We ended up in Cinderella where I bought a pair of black shoes for work. Augy's mom left to go back to work so Augy and I went to Powerbooks to buy two Kitty Go books and then we took a cab to the dentist's clinic in Manila.

Going to the dentist is not a walk in the park. It's a run through hell. I hate opening my mouth really wide, having it probed several times then enduring a half-hour cleaning session. Grrr... My dentist is such an OC with the way she cleaned every tooth in my mouth. I specially hate having to control my saliva which is impossible. A part of me prayed. Lord, don't let me drool like a dog. She asked me to get a panoramic xray so we can check my tooth which chipped. I have to get the xray done this week, get more fillings for my other teeth and consult about having braces placed on my teeth.

After my checkup, Augy and I went to the Great Eastern Hotel to book a room for the night. We had a room with twin beds. I lay down in bed for a few minutes while Augy fixed some stuff. We talked about buying food in McDonald's but decided in the end to go to Trinoma for some groceries. We dropped by Bread Talk where I wanted to buy everything that looked tasty but Augy set his foot down on two kinds of bread. We walked to Landmark where we bought water, ice cream and Pringles. I felt so tired since I haven't slept since the night before. We decided to go back to the hotel after withdrawing money. I went to the washroom while Augy looked for an ATM. We ended up taking a cab. I took a nap in my bed while Augy watched tv. He woke me up to tell me that he will get the pizza and hot wings that he had delivered to the hotel. Once he came back, we had dinner. I ate a lot. I completely disregarded the fact that I am gaining more weight. Shucks. After dinner, I slept some more and ate Pringles when I woke up. I read one of the books while nibbling on junk food. Augy was tuned to the NBA games. The night was spent sleeping, eating, reading, talking and watching tv. I felt so rested when I got home. It was nice lounging around and worrying about nothing but food.

Sit Back and Relax
I had a nice weekend. I spent it lounging around, rolling around in bed, watching tv, stuffing myself with food and snoozing. Too bad I have no energy to really write today.
