i'm thinking of moving my blog to multiply, since i have most of my pics there.

sometimes i feel like i'm in the middle of the ocean without any lifeline; but who knows -- maybe God is teaching me how to swim.

"Amazing love, oh what sacrifice, the Son of God, given for me. My debt He paid and my death He died, that I might live, that I might live." i have heard the medley of both "amazing love" songs by acapella praise several years back, and i must say that it was very lovely ;)

tonight, i say goodbye to a friend who has been faithful to me for more than 5 years. she who has been with me through hours of walking down the streets of kuala lumpur. she who has trudged the minnesotan snow with me one halloween night. she who has boosted my confidence on countless client meetings. she who has rejoiced with me on several weddings. even in her last hour, she did not let me

my latest craving, discovered when k.dei and i watched the free sugarfree concert in eastwood last january 13. the different "flavors" of buko ni fruitas -- buko fruit salad (the ones i bought in paseo had strawberry and lychee), buko halo-halo, buko strawberry, buko mangga

here is a poem i wrote last year, at a major point in my life. and since i changed my blog title, i thought that this would make an appropriate "first" post. sleepless (5/21/2006) i'm losing sleep over you and i don't know what to do you're an itch i can't scratch a butterfly i can't catch a dream that i want to come true i'm losing sleep over you and there's not much i can do but

i wore a short skirt some days ago. i was not in the mood to iron any slacks, and there was this skirt that my cousin gave me that i haven't worn ever. i just found it amusing that guys seem to notice me more when i'm wearing a skirt. and i don't even have nice legs (blame it on genetics and the overly long lines in the Math building) ;) in 5 minutes, i had 3 taxis stop in front of me, when

i had noticed some things that were different in the way our family prepared for and celebrated last Christmas: * i did not buy a Christmas present for myself. ever since i got a job, i would always buy a present for myself on special occasions. i would even buy something for myself just because :P it was my way of pampering myself. last Christmas was different in that i only bought

sugarfree is one of my favorite bands. their music reminds me of eraserheads (another favorite). their songs are melodious, though half won't give you an LSS. but the lyrics! the lyrics are something else. what i really, really like about them is that they are "singing my life with (their) words". so here are four years of my life, as told by sugarfree: 2003 huling gabi unang araw kung ayaw

my baby is now two "years" old! he does not take after me, he's more fair-skinned. actually, he's pale -- with yellow and blue "blotches". no, he's not sick nor extra-terrestrial. and two-"issues"-old is more appropriate. i'm talking about our company's newsletter, of course :P i joined the company's newsletter team early this year because i was getting bored with my work (and i wanted to

i went to japan last week. it was neither a job-hunting trip nor a sightseeing tour. i was there on official business -- to gather requirements for some of the projects we will be doing for our clients in japan. since i am too lazy to write, i will just quote some emails i sent while i was there. i'm already here in japan :P my flight was delayed for almost 2 hours. the client wondered why

around this time last year, i went to my first "authentic" halloween party. sure, we've had halloween parties when i was child. i usually dressed up as a white lady, because it was easiest, and together with my siblings and cousins, danced the night away to the tune of the latest 80's disco songs in the glow of our christmas tree's blinking lights. but last year was different, because i was in

i've finally bought a pair of those rubber sandals i've always wanted since college. :D back then, we called them "mojos" (i think "mojo" is the brand that was sold in the university shopping center). but this particular pair, i bought in a sports shop in the mall, and was of a different brand. the straps are blue, and the base, black. on the underside, it's got an interesting pattern of a

i had my first surgery today. my second wisdom tooth was growing, and it was causing me pain for several days now. it was so painful that last wednesday i went to my dentist, dra. grace, to have a checkup. she told me that there was an oricardial (not sure if i spelled it correctly) tissue that was on top of my erupting second tooth, and that it had to be removed. she said that the surgery will

family picture taken new year's eve 2005 i attended my former church in the province at my father's behest because the pastor was going to pray for our family. if you knew my father, you'd know that i couldn't possibly turn down that request. so there i was, that sunday morning, attending that church with my whole family. when it was prayer time, a woman prayed for each of us sisters. and

So here's my list of five things you probably don't know about me: superman returns is the first superman movie that i've watched from beginning to end. i talk in my sleep. i hate stepping on sewers and manhole covers, and i try my best to avoid them as much as possible. i can eat sinigang on several consecutive meals. i wanted to be an artist / fashion designer when i

i have cleaned the bathroom today! yey! only my section of the bedroom remains... i hope i can buy a study table tomorrow so that i can move some of my stuff downstairs.

what would it take to bring six people with busy work schedules and active social lives to allot two days to clean a dust-ridden house? a miracle, of course. and a miracle was what happened last weekend, as my housemates and i, performed our annual (and much dreaded) general house cleaning. added to the usual fare is the challenge of fitting another study table to our already crowded living

i sealed someone's fate today. it was either him or me -- lose him or lose my sanity. the choice was, of course, obvious. i don't really regret what i've done, but i w(o)nder if i made the right decision. should i have waited for him to improve? was he really the problem or me? after all, they might add "the one who let a contractor go" to my long list of "titles". well, what's another notch to

i got tagged by don. so, here's my list of top 10 simple pleasures (in no particular order): 1. sleeping in on a rainy morning 2. playing games with siblings/friends 3. watching a good movie with siblings/friends who don't talk much 4. eating chocolate 5. hearing his laughter 6. exchanging stories with good friends 7. going through memorabilia 8. cooking an edible meal 9. smelling
