Back to School

I ought to organize my notes from my major subjects in college and have a quick review! I've been so excited to go to grad school but now I'm getting nervous.

Maybe a new Jordi Labanda will help. Hmm. :)

Queen Midas

I usually can't be bothered to post online quiz results, but I wouldn't be fair to my pal Cor if I didn't show her mine! Haha. This is hilarious!











The website is actually promoting short films that sound really interesting. Check it out.

Just add popcorn.

Sunday Treats and Cravings

My heart is calling out for sisig carbonara, Cello's doughnuts and more yummy, relaxing bath products.

But since it's raining and my friends are either not feeling very well or too lazy to get out of the house, I'm just going to make do with blog-hopping, reading, DVD watching and test driving my most recent purchase.

I've started a collection of bath products and lotions. Long baths and skin pampering are my current favorite cheap thrills. Anything to keep my mind off work!

Never Forget

I usually don't post anything related to politics, but I cannot not share this with you. Well said, Ms. Evangelista.

With my now former role models blogging praises about this lady, I'm worried that our generation and the generations to come will no longer remember the past, and all those years of cruelty and greed will be completely glossed over, until all the world will remember is her "glamour".

Quick Pick-Me-Upper

A sudden calm took over me when my officemate played this.

Flightless Bird, American Mouth.wma -

And then I got really sleepy. Not a very good thing when you're trying to beat deadlines.

I'll ask her to switch back to the HSM soundtracks and Hannah Montana tomorrow. Hehe.

Next Attraction

A few things that will be perfect for nice, quiet "me" time next weekend:






They're like dresses I wanted to get but didn't, and now I'm itching to go back to the bookstore.

Here's a little preview of Angelo's fascinating work. And another one. And another one.

Maybe I'd be a lot less stressed out if I started writing again.

Peachy Keen

Woke up early on a Sunday to go to work. Good thing one of my bosses also wanted breakfast food for lunch, so I got to get out of the office for a while and satisfy my month-long craving for peach waffles. I realized how long it's been since I got to walk around Eastwood. I can't believe my friends get to go around more often than I do when I'm there almost everyday!


Hit the grocery store on the way home with my dad and had a snack, this time a peach danish, at the nearby French Baker.

Guess I found my new favorite comfort food.

If this doesn't get UST students to sign up for Mediartrix, I don't know what will.

Yeah, he's cool like that. Haha. Plugging for the big li'l bro!

What I Want for Breakfast Tomorrow

What I really need for breakfast tomorrow:

Distraction

The light bounces
Off my face
Tense, focused,
My eyes cling
Onto each box
On the screen
One by one
Row by row
Column by column
Like the boxes around me
Rows and columns
Rows and columns
Then a pair of eyes
Intent, intense
Clinging onto mine

Tick, tick, tick...

I feel like my brain is about to explode due to info overload.

A friendly reminder: I'm only human.

Question.

If you only miss almost everything about someone, it's probably not true love, right?

But it's love if you're willing to deal with everything if only you could have that person back.

Like This

I like rap and hiphop but I'm definitely NOT a big fan of the flashy videos with bikini-clad women, shiny cars and bling all over the place. That's why I love this clip from Bow Wow--catchy song, refreshing video.

Zac, Zac, Zac!

Ooh...
La...
La!

I LOVED Zac Efron in 17 Again. One word: HOT.

The Chicest Way to Serve Burgers and Fries

Ooh la la!

Eastwood City's "FREE" Parking

Yeah, yeah, there's still the fine print, but this is still a great reason to visit me at work! ;)

Finally--a bag made of recycled materials that actually looks cool.

Move Over, Devil's Food Cake!

My lola's birthday cake was delicious. I never thought I would actually like caramel cake 'cause I'm more of a chocolate person, but this was just sooo good! How come I've never heard of Estrel's before? It's definitely a must-try.

Reflections of a Skyline

Ahh, love. It's the thing, you know. :)

Working Girl

Today marks the beginning of a new chapter in my life. I'm employed!

IBM, here I come! :)

I'm getting obsessed with finding something new to crave for online. Just added breadxbread, foodporndaily and sugarnsweets to my Food and Dining bookmarks for my daily online indulgences.

Today I stumbled upon these photos of mouthwatering treats (above) which will be served at a feast we can actually join at Cirkulo Restaurant in Makati--TONIGHT! Check out this Chuvaness blog entry for more information.

I had a little gourmet feast myself last night, care of Chef Kathryn, my other not-so-little sister (from anotha motha) Hahaha. She combined this creamy, buttery sauce with ragu over penne. Mmm-mm. Kat, I swear it didn't taste like beer--it was perfect!


I'm hungry again.

Wow, Isaw!

Nothing in Katipunan beats the delicious street food inside the U.P. campus, which is why my friends and I still take an extra jeepney/car ride for a good food trip at U.P. Chicken isaw at Mang Larry's is one of the things I'm definitely going to miss.

Oh, boy. Even isaw is making me sentimental.

Spars and Sparks

What I loved most about Dawson's Creek was Pacey Witter. I wanted Joey to end up with him, but I always thought the bond he had with Andie was more special, mainly because they had a lot of funny spars, meaningful conversations and positive transformations in the course of their relationship, which showed how much they really clicked and understood each other. Here's one of my many favorite Andie-and-Pacey sparring moments:

Season 2 Episode 6: The Dance
Andie: So, Witter, I hope you have your moves polished and ready 'cause I plan to make a dancing fool out of you.
Pacey: Sorry. No can do, McPhee. I don't dance.
Andie: What do you mean, you don't you dance?
Pacey: Well, it's simple. I don't like it and I'm really not any good at it. I mean, it's bad enough that I'm just going on Saturday night, so don't expect me to get out there and start busting a move 'cause it's just not going to happen.
Andie: You don't dance? You are beyond immature.
Pacey: You're overbearing.
Andie: Boring.
Pacey: Hypersensitive.
Andie: Vulgar.
Pacey: Pick you up at seven?
Andie: Great.

The Secret Garden

I loved this film as a kid. I probably watched it about a hundred times, and I'm not exaggerating!

I wanted to be as brave as Mary. I was a big scaredy-cat back then. Err... Guess I still am!

What My Sweet Tooth is Aching For

Mmm... Devil's Food Cake from The Chocolate Kiss :)
Why do I crave for baked chocolate goodies this time of year?
