yes, i found a new look

had it been for the rain that i got my mood for
dressing up my webbie, it's been a while..
this time, it's a more fresher and cleaner feel
everytime one would visit, tadah!

i was feeling a'lil melancholy looking at
raindrops, i don't know what has gotten into
me, but i guess being not able to go out and
that feeling of nothing-to-do somehow add up to
that sentiment, there may be is something in
the drizzle.
but i somehow got pacified in the comfort food..

masarap lalo na pag mainit?
would you not want some?


and speaking of not going out, had some
places visited for quite a few weeks back..
been to quiapo for some accessories tiangge..


and a trip to quiapo wouldn't be complete without
a visit to its infamous church.

i was somehow struck by how quiapo is clean in the morning.


and a toddle to that underpass, will always make you wonder.
was flummox by their music, most of them, muslims and are prayer-ready
on the time i crossed, i guess.


t'was one good trip though.


FOOD CRITIQUE


for some time now, eating in resto/food chain was a fave thing to do.
lemme share some ratings of those that could fill the
gastronomic desire..

1. Fish and Co.
-been with the most amazing peeps i know, whilst eating here.
but most of all, t'was a no-pay for me day, coz my fave
sistah shouldered everything. i called her, our financier that day, hehe..
i love their fish and chips! they have a mouthful of desserts as well.
most of all, you can never trade its ambiance..




2. Halaman (Tanay)
-one of the best lutong-bahay you can taste in tanay. but it may take some time before you can relish your orders. they cook impromptu. not for those who are in-a-hurry.


3. Green Tomatoe
- they have blah pesto, blah fett.. i never expected pasta to taste this bad. i wasn't able to taste anything! i really dont recommend the place. plus they have very poor service. the only consolation i could give them is, their food looks appetizing, but that's just about it- don't be fooled.


4. Mongkok
-mw want chinese, you want chinese, traditional that is? yum! was really full, swak pa sa budget!



eto muna for the food, had an emergency while making this entry. am still a bit sad now.. ill write about it if i have time.

spoiler/teaser and of fashion

yes, things will going to look different for the new season of Grey's Anatomy which will air in pretty soon. if you want some spoilers or teasers read on..

• According to ABC, the newly minted residents will be getting their own interns to mentor. Among the interns: George, repeating his internship after failing the exam (an executive producer told Us that he'd be Meredith's intern), and Lexie Grey, Mere's half-sister.
  
• Cristina takes Meredith on her "honeymoon" after being left at the altar; according to Us, when Cristina returns two weeks later, Burke is mysteriously nowhere to be found. As for Mere and Der, they're at what ABC calls "an emotional impasse."
• The crew doesn't adjust well to taking orders from Callie instead of Bailey. Bailey, meanwhile, has to find a whole new place in the hospital hierarchy after being passed over for chief resident.
• The Chief returns to his position, but this time he's attempting to keep a better work/life balance for the sake of Adele, with whom he has officially reunited.
• Mark tries to rekindle his friendship with Derek; apparently, the guy's lonely after Burke and Addison both leave.

sound like a good story ahead.
haaay, wish it would also air here the same it will air there, haha!



kate moss's magic hands is in work again!
loved her vest designs and that electric pleated dress of her first tie-up with top-shop.
will we also love her fall collection?

tip-off

your eyes will drool.
it's pure manjoyment!
fasten your seatbelt!

he even didn't pass my scoring eyes!


secret hotness huh!


he seemed to improve, thus spell fafa-ble


boy-next-door still..


jt on the move.


the hotness of all!
enough said!

-- it may be the never-ending rainfall or the coldness, ha! =D

wala lang..

it's been raining cats and dogs these days..
but that didn't stop me to go see the metro again.
was alone last thursday at the powerplant,
went there to fix/schedule some important things.
and of course, going to the mall spells s-h-o-p-p-i-n-g!
good thing, zara and mango were on sale, and you bet-
got the most steal purchases on that day! yay to me!
shopping galore is a therapy indeed, hehe..
was alone so i also got the chance to have "moi-time"
which i enjoy once-in-a-while.
after my rockwell splurging, head to the shang.
checked this kewl place to buy music and videos


called tmv (touch music and video) few peeps were there to check the music they want to listen, but hey, it's a unique store where you can buy stuff, and just a touch on that cute monitor, you can hear music! haha!

just one loophole though, some of the most "in the need" albums were not available.
but you can check them out and try to see what's instore.

went home with an accomplished day. i ♥ happy days!

-----------------

random guilty pleasure (for now)

- shopping (obvious! well, who doesn't?)
- havaianas (summer-must-have, according to oprah)
- latest hollywood fashion and buzz- fabsugar and superficial
- multiply and friendster shopping online and checking sexy girls (tivoli- gusto ko lang silang tignan eh! bakit ba? haha!) respectively
- jaime oliver
- preview mag (my fashion-bible now)
- su-doku puzzles (alaveeet!)

xoxo♥

Dear Tech Support,

Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed a distinct slowdown in the overall performance, particularly in the flower and jewelry applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0.

In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many other valuable programs such as Romance 9.5 and Personal Attention 6.5 and then installed undesirable programs such as MLB 5.0, NFL 4.3, PGA 3.0, and NBA 3.6. Conversation 8.0 no longer runs, and Housecleaning 2.6 simply crashes the system.

I've tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems, to no avail.

What can I do?

Signed, Desperate


☺

REPLY FROM TECH SUPPORT:

Dear Desperate,

First keep in mind, Boyfriend 5.0 is an Entertainment Package, while Husband 1.0 is an Operating System.

try to enter the command: C:\ITHOUGHTYOULOVEDME' to download Tears 6.2,which should automatically install Guilt 3.0.

If that application works as designed, Husband 1.0 should then automatically run the applications Jewelry 2.0 and Flowers 3.5, BUT remember, overuse of the above application can cause Husband 1.0 to default to Grumpy Silence 2.5, Happy Hour 7.0, or Beer 6.1.

WARNING: Beer 6.1 is a very nasty program that will create Snoring Loudly 2.2.

CAUTION: Whatever you do, DO NOT install Mother-in-law 1.0 or reinstall another Boyfriend program. These are not supported applications and will crash Husband 1.0.

In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it does have limited memory and cannot learn new applications quickly. You might consider buying additional software to improve memory and performance. I personally recommend Hot Food 3.0 and Lingerie 7.7.

Good Luck,
Tech Support

repost from Ariane

updates lang

i've been itching to write since last week, speaking of last week, right this very day last week, was one hell-of-a-day.. i accompanied my cousin Danica for her interview as incoming freshman in ust.. her interview was scheduled in the afternoon. but since our place is kilometers away from the metro, we ended leaving early.. then guess what, shoot! i dunno if it was just some unlucky day or what, call it jinx day.. we rode a tricycle (yes, we will be commuting..) to get to the fx terminal to crossing.. and right on the bridge was a lunatic and ano, ayun, napag-trip-an lang naman akong suntukin! mantakin mo! oo na, alam ko, maskulada ako, but damn! do i really look like a boxer? hindi naman masyadong malakas ang suntok, dito sa may balakang, pero huh, nakakabigla ding pag-trip-an ng baliw! ( i know jen, if you're reading this, you probably is already dieing of laughter, kilala kitah!). so ayun, dumating din kami sa terminal, sa kabila ng pagkabigla s pangyayari.. mejo masakit, pero ok lang, hindi naman ako napuruhan eh.. balikan ko kaya sya? pero eto wait, meron pa, ang gagong driver, ni wala man lang ginawa, parang nangingisi p sya at sinuntok ako, demmit!
ayun, pagdating din the terminal, walang fx!
matagal kaming naghintay.. nung malapit ng mag-isang oras, i decided to check sa other paradahan.. naku, wala ding fx n dumarating.. then i decided, we might be late for my cousin's interview, so we need to ride the jeepney.. napilitan talga akong mag-decide.. mind you, it was a really humid day! it fell somewhere from 36-37 degrees Centigrade (whoa, what was that, a hot oven or something?) top this, tanay to crossing is apparently 36kilometers away.. so with my calculation plus plus the traffic, masuwerte n kaming makarating sa crossing ng isang oras at kalahati, o db ang suwerte ng start ng luwas namin? before we knew it, puwede mo n kaming gawing kalamay-hati! (alam mo b iyon? ung malagkit n pinapalaman, ah! coco jam sa english..) ayun, ang lagkit lagkit n naming dalawa.. puwede ng gawing preno ng sasakyan, grabeh!thanks to my lotion after bathing, ang sarap makipag-kaskasan ng balat.. kung makakapagsalita lang siguro ang hanky ko, malamang sumigaw n sya ng "parang-awa mo na", good thing, it was a red one, hindi obvious n madumi at nangigigtata. we rode a cab getting to ust, hanep ang driver, hataw magmaneho, dun na pa naman kami kumakain ng lunch, kasi nag-take-out n kami ni dang ng lunch, wala n kasing time.. hindi din kami halos nakakakain, we feel like puking sa bilis nya.. ang sarap db? isipin ko n lang kunwari nalasing ako kaya gagawin ko un.. hay buhay!
after the interview, ang tanging consolation ko, is mag mall, hay! ang sarap ang lamig! i bought my baby gingersnaps uli and a new shirt for me and her dad. so the coming sunday, lahat kami naka-bago for the mass, hehehe. oh db.. totyal!


bakit kamo kami naka-bago (new shirts on) ng sunday? t'was a special day dahil nagpakain kami ng mga bata (less-fortunate) sa mount carmel church. it's me and my hubby's way of thanking God for all the blessing He gave us. He never really left us, though problem and serious concerns are still on our mind, it still is better to give.. seeing the smiles on their faces was such a knock-out happiness.
later that evening, the Maranans celebrated ranton's bday at the fun ranch.. it really was a good place to find a good resto and at the same time good amusement place for the children. if you happen to schedule your family to go to fun ranch, eat at the big read barn.esp. if you're an ice cream lover, am sure you're gonna love their summer treats of ice cream!<--banana split, isn't it tempting?wallow in!



ang saya-saya ko! i have two (2) havaianas this april.. hope this will again be the start of my collection. had my 1st havaianas in 2005, but sadly, hindi n sya nadagdagan, until now. pero nasira muna ang 1st flip flops ko before i got my latest pairs..and yes,go on, you can envy me! hahahaha!

xoxo.

can i just..

ask, where have all my fave bloggers gone?

it's been a while and they're still on hiatus..

my fave bloggers
ariane-the one whose blessed with that slim body. the one who's torn between love and career.

tins-nakapag-eb n kami, hahaha! kiddin, she's a personal friend, were officemates then and an active bloggger nung may lovelife p sya, hope meron na uli ahihihihi..

and tiepee- her humor will never let u pass, grabeh, ang galing magsulat. she closed her blog, but hope she change her mind.
cant get enough of their talent in writing. they are sweethearts of the blogging world. i just missed them soooo much.

i'm still running through thoughts and genuises of faye, ala, bianca, saab and katie.

but somehow am wanting 'em all back.



be excited!

i've been browsing way too much my time before.. no sweat, i'm raving of products online, esp.
the adorable baubles bangles. two bangles already in my possession, and i'm still counting.

screech

damn. this online banking doesnt seem to work! i cliked that fund transfer section then a pop-up said, i don't have fund to transfer, duh! will i opt that portion if it doesnt display or i didn't know i still have money in my account! tsk.tsk.poor system. what's worse is, they have this phonebanking..and guess what, andaming chechebureche! kesyo may kailangan pang phone identification # chuva!hay naku! waste of time. i know, maybe they're just being cautious of hackers..but the hell-waste of time. hmpf!

be sad

my first evah-fave havaianas flip died..consider it lifeless, becoz i can't use it anymore, thongs were cut because of over-usage, ahuhuhuhu..total abuse my havie cried!

rant some more

ang lakas ng videoke s kapitbahay namin.. sana lang tama and naiintidihan ang lyrics most esp sana ok pakinggan, kaso ewan, ayaw ko ng magsalita.. tsk.tsk. hindi kasi sila busy eh..

(i hold on tu yor badi and pil its mub yu make.. kos i am olweys by yor sayd!.. wer heyding por samtheng..kos m yor lady aynd yu ar my meyn!.. ay wanan doo ol i keyn!wid the power ob..she then paused..hindi n kaya, hahahaha!)

ayos!

show what makes me smile and makes my day!

<----- need i say more?

blow by blow papampam

one should call her actions- stupidity at its best? actually i pity her. her former assistant was right, nobody could save her from herself, except herself alone. of course, everybody was shocked at the sight of brit, half bald this time, but yeah she really went all the way.

give her anything that makes her happy, poor britney.

crossing threshold

my now-clear mind- zoomed through many passages of
life.. things of what could have been, things to achieve
and now is the best time to think of that blast from the past, err. i often think of educating myself, and so stuck fast to opening the webbie of this university im so wanting to be-in over the years.. as i browsed and perused, it occurred that the admission to graduate studies has a big load of requirements for me, not that i was dumb-headed in my civil engineering years. but i guess encompassing the competition with the male specie in my college was really hard-hitting.. yes, i know i need not excuse myself for not studying in paramount altitude that time. but fine, i was really lazy in college (lame). now, i’m learning. come to think of it.. i was on the top50 of my graduating class. yes, mind you, top40something. Mapua (in my days) is an undemanding (opposed) college by the way, if you know what I mean..

now, my heart is yearning for education. i want to learn things again. go back to school. or maybe im just like this because i’m beginning to recognize the need for it. or i was just bored. but who can be bored with such dealings everyday? i know, in every person’s heart is a need, a want,a desire a craving, for now this is it..
well, c’est la vie, will never be loss of needs and wants.
xoxo.
