The other (It may have been a Saturday) day, I read Nikki M.'s plurk that Rockwell was on fire. I panicked a bit and told my mom.
"Ma, Rockwell was on fire daw and CPK got ruined or something!"
and she was like, "Ah talaga?"
OMG, how can she not care? Oh well. I am the one who is in love with that mall, too much happy memories. Except the one when I was in first year high school and I got in trouble with the people of Make Room. Mind you, I never went inside the store ever since, EVER SINCE. Okay, move on.
I read Cecil's blog (chuvaness.com, ring a bell?), and found out that Sumosam was on fire that night. OMGGGG! NOOOOO! I haven't even tasted the food there! UGH.
I miss Powerplant already. ACKKK!

ON FIRE!
lesson learned
I was texting my brother-from-another-mother few minutes ago. And we were in phase 4, the talk about LOVE. Yes, LUURRVE.
And he said,
"Pero cquee, you shouldn't make him feel like he's Beckham. Na magaling siya kasi may mga girls siya."
Ohh. Natawa ako, but yeah, he should know better. Thanks Kuya!

disconnection notice
Let's part ways.
Mom will borrow my laptop tomorrow since she needs to have hers fixed.
Then I'll sleep over at my lola's place, which is like 5 minutes away my house (by car).
By Friday, I'll pack my things for Baguio.
Saturday, early morn means road trip.
HELLO BAGUIO.
See you after that.
CRYSTAL BALL, revised.
What does the future hold for me?
I have so many things planned for my life. In fact, it's blown out of proportion since I have no idea of how I could get to that point. Let me tell you about my dreams. Who knows, you may have the same dream as mine.
I'm not such a big fan of the 8-5 thing. I don't want my life to turn into a monotonous routine, I tell you, I will die in that environment. I don't want to get stuck in a corporate rut either.
I've always had this thing for field work, or whatever you call it. Which means that being a lifestyles TV host is one of my dream jobs. Like what Oli Pettigrew does for Sony Style (AXN), isn't that the life? Traveling the world, eating weird & good food, discovering gadgets, music, movies and events, and you get paid, for crying out loud. What could you ask for?
I never ever left the country, EVER. My mom being so kind said that she'll try to send me to Australia when I'm done with school or when my cousins arrive there, whichever comes first. I'll be living with them for a while. Now, that can be adventure. My cousins from this side of the family loves road trips and stuff which is so much fun. My cousins from the other side (father's) live in Australia too, but it would require a 6-hour plane ride to get to them from my other cousins. Ha!
I want to live in a condominium somewhere in Makati, since I feel like it's our local take of New York. I've been eyeing The Loft in Rockwell. I also want to buy my mother a house, somewhere laid-back and fun, I've been eyeing Westgrove but my mom doesn't seem to be entertained with the idea of big houses, so we'll see. I also want to live in New York, eventually. I just find it so exciting. Okay, so a part of me wants to be Carrie Bradshaw or the Upper East Side girls, but whatever. I want New York.
I loved Advertising and the grueling work they have there. All the secret accounts and the brainstorming, ahhh, it makes me feel like its an adventure even if its a corporate job. Hey, Advertising people of Manila get to go to Bora once in a while just to attend an awards show like Kidlat.
I want to be a photographer at some point, but that's just minor.
I love JR Isaac's job. Yes, he is my godfather and at some point I look up to him. The life he has, it seems so fun. He also gets to travel, go to events and such because he writes about them. I find that exciting. And also magazine work, (since JR works on magazines I figured this would fall under this category) I love magazine work, fashion of course. Ahh, it makes me feel like I'm on the set of Devil Wears Prada.
Oh, oh! Have I told you that I wanted to study again? Probably abroad. Hopefully, abroad. I just like it, I mean, I'm still young and studying seems like a good and enriching option. I wanna experience Uni life out there. 'Coz mine felt like high school. HAHA.
At one point, I also have tons of cars. I like cars. I want to drive, fast!
Media may have played a big part in this, making me think that these dreams do look that way in real life. But I want to figure it out myself. You get me? I want to have fun and be filthy rich (HAHAHA)!
Now, I only have the rest of the summer or less to figure out where I would do my OJT. I'm still torn between magazine work and advertising work. What should I do for the rest of my life?
I have so many things running in my head and I can't figure things out just yet. I hope it works out well.
Now, what does the future hold for you?

another kind of pain.
I can't actually keep track the number of times that I would pause and curl up in a ball because of so much pain. No, it's not of heartbreak (LOLS at this.), but more like hyperacidity, well at least I hope it is. I don't want to have something worse. I've had GERD scares too, that wasn't good, NOTHING about acid reflux is good.
I've been under heavy medication of antibiotics and stuff before and I don't want to go through that again. I haven't had my endoscopy though, which has been overdue, BTW.
Sometimes I think the pain came back because of the alcohol I take, but please, it is not as if I'm an alcoholic. It was just social drinking! (DEFENSIVE?) And oh, that other thing I do. Ugh.
I just want to get better. My doctor said that I'm too young to be having these "things."
Okay, HAPPY THOUGHTS. HAPPY THOUGHTS!
19 April 2009
pay attention.
But for now I'll look so longingly waiting..
For you to want me,
For you to need me..
For you to notice me.

PJH: Day 2
Let's not talk about hate blogs now, let's talk about endorphins, the stuff that makes you happy!
Day 2 in my project has been successful.
I'm in control and I still have the will power.
YAAAY ME!
HATE BLOG
SPEND TIME WITH HER.
As if I care. UGHHH!
I hope you choke on your own bile.
Like what Harry said, "Hindi ako affected!"
Wait, I told my friend that I would NEVER post hate blogs.
HAPPY THOUGHTS. HAPPY THOUGHTS.

PROJECT: JAI HO
I heard that "Jai Ho" means "Victory", now I like the sound of that!
So I am calling my project, PROJECT: JAI HO. (how obvious can I get?) The project that I have been planning to do for the loooooongest time. I now plan to take it seriously.
PROJECT: JAI HO a.k.a. PJH started this morning!
I am so proud of myself. GAHHHH!

tasks & rants
I hope that I could just wink and they'd disappear!
Review for my FINALS.
Yes, our finals comes after Holy Week. How ironic, Hell Week (a.k.a. finals) comes after Holy Week.
Papers.
SPRJCT (with MJ and Issa) & COMCOMM (2 papers, all by myself. *faints*)
After all of this, HELLO SUMMER (Tali, please JC, Tali!), HELLO OJT (omgomgomgomg!), HELLO RELSFOR (my final class for college!) and then HELLO WORKKKKK! If everything works out, I may have what we call the Aussie Experience! Yessurrr!
I'm torn between magazine work and advertising.
I still have high hopes for McCann Erickson. HIGH HOPES.

CAMIA & THE MOVES
I never thought it would turn out like this, from one simple aya just because it was our last day (for most of us..).
It started out with an early dinner with Miko, Ghec and MJ. Harry was too (distracted? heehee.) to come along so he stayed at Camia with Marton and Nicole.
After dinner, we bought vodka and sprite at Rustans. And cigarettes for Miko. Ugh, you finished up my money! HAHA.
We got to Camia. NO ONE WAS HOME. Seriously, so we mixed the drinks and started. I picked up my laptop, iPod and speakers at home, so we could have music and stuff. After a few minutes after I got back to Camia, Jed came along! HAHA.
After a few drinks, Harry, Nicole, Erick and Reza arrived. They had dinner at Phase 4, yummy BBQ, they say! Drinks were shared and some talks too. A little of THE MOVES. Haha. AJ got there too. After a while again, Topet arrived. Apparently he needed Reza's help for his website. Drinks, talks and Youtube videos were shared.
Erick, Topet and Reza decided to play poker, so they did. Then Reo came along! Weee. I got so tired so I took a nap. The usual nap. When I woke up, Mike and Ana was there already, even Erick was home from poker. Eventually, Topet was back too. After a few hours, Reza came back with a smile, he won some cash. Chaaaa-Ching!
There were just little chats here and there. Like the reclined seat, Harry's Ferrari, Canlubang rules which you apparently have to declare and such.
One by one people started going home. When I left, Reza, Topet, Harry and Erick were still drinking and talking.
A night of fun. Who knew that one simple aya could bring all of this?

wait, WHAT?
So I haven't blogged for a week or so. And I owe you an update.
In the past week..
I auditioned for Magic's Junior Jock program. And I didn't make the cut. I felt bad, who wouldn't but all I could do was take their constructive criticism and learn from it. They gave me a chance though but I missed the make or break song. I was bitter with music for a while because of that. HAHA.
I acted in a play, INTROTA's final production. It was fun and exciting! HAHA. Funny script and I'm glad my mom liked it even if she got a bit shocked. And yes, I played a 56 year-old woman during the Spanish Period.
I finally got to eat in Ippon Yari. YEHESS! I've tried Oyako, Umenoya and now, Ippon Yari. (Sta. Rosa has lots of authentic Japanese restaurants!)
We got a dog, Juancho! So this is a bit late, but yeah! We now have a mini wire-haired dachshund :) That's him sleeping, so cute!
I've developed a certain bond with McDonald's coffee.
I've been having good times in Camia and 113 with friends. No pictures, but we have good memories. HAHAHA. Yah know what I mean!
Well, that wraps up my update. See you soon.
Follow me on Plurk if you want daily (mini) updates.
