"lucky" me

napakamalas ko naman ngayong araw na to. na-late ako kanina pagpasok sa office at nag-logout ako ng mas maaga sa dapat. yep, i had to go home because i can no longer think straight. i might end up messing up a lot of things and worst with a lot of people. mas ok na rin tong ginawa ko. baka kse di ako makapagpigil. hehehe...

you might be wondering what happened. today is the dreaded day of picking our new schedules. since no one wants to work during the weekends, they decided to have draw lots to be fair. because i am so "lucky" on things like this (anything that requires luck i.e lottery draws, tickets and the like), i picked the most dreaded schedule (saturday, sunday, monday). i was just so disappointed that i could not contain it so i decided to go home early. i would like to clarify that i am not angry to anyone in particular, it's nobody's fault just mine. i just have to clear my head. in the first place, i am just human. just like anybody else... (to be continued... if i could think of anything to add. i just have to let this out.)

happy birthday abba!

birthday greetings to one of my best buds. i hope all your wishes will be at hand. :)

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

i will leave work early today because i need to go to the hospital. it is the time of the year that i have to undergo another breast ultrasound. yeah, since i got operated, i have to do this every 6 months and yes, i had to shell out money for this. the last time i did, i paid Php1500 because according to the attendants of our HMO, the said test was not covered. i just hope that the cost has not increased yet. :)

btw, i am not yet sure if my bosses will allow me to leave work early. wish me luck kids. :)

i just got back from my usual four days off. as always, i don't feel like going to work today. i had a blast during my off. i had my free time occupied with a part time job. it just makes the days pass by faster than usual. however, it limits me from doing extra stuff like visiting a friend in antipolo. haayy... buhay... parang life. hehehe

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

yoshie's leaving on the 26th of this month. she will be back after christmas this year. it's just sad that she won't be here on the art fair in salcedo park in makati just like last year. the art in the park will be more special for me because i will be joining this year. but i know she will be very happy to go back to papua new guinea and see her parents. have a safe trip yosh, we will miss you. :)

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

i am pressured.
november is fast approaching. i just realized that i only have a month and a half to come up with 5 paintings for the art in the park. i still don't know what to paint. i still don't have any available materials. wish me luck. i don't want to end up withdrawing.

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

abba had her advanced birthday bash last night. i was not able to come because i have work today. i hope she had a great time. last night too, our dabarkads had a dinner with chiqui. btw, chiqui resigned from work and i was not even able to see her for the last time. sad. damned cww.

books... books... books...












as planned, i went to national bookstore today to buy the books i posted here
last week. due to some turn of events, i ended up purchasing other books. hehehe... it's just that the i was able to find the book eldest by christopher paolini which is so hard to find that is why i grabbed the opportunity to buy it. the second book i bought is good omens by terry pratchett and neil gaiman. i am a big fan of neil gaiman and it's so refreshing to know that he wrote a book with another best selling author (that is as far as i know. hehehe... ). i got so excited that i forgot about the books i was planning to buy. to be honest, i haven't read any of stephen king's book yet. i really hope that i would be able soon. hehehe... promise, i will buy everything's eventual, the expected one and macarthur soon. i'm crossing my fingers. hehehe...

bored???!!! not me... hehehe

another cool site where you can watch those movies and tv shows you missed. hehehe... interested??!!! click here.

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

i will start working for my part time job tomorrow and will be working for three days only. i don't want to push my body to its limits. i may not be able to handle it if ever because i am not getting any younger. i've realized that the 6k i would be getting from this job will be of great help already. again, thank you Lord for the angels you sent me. :)

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

i've been lurking in the national bookstore website today. initially, i just want to look at the content of the book which contains the 1408 short story of stephen king. and now i can't stop. especially now that i discovered that national bookstore is on sale. the book i am looking for together with a lot of books i like are on sale and i cannot help myself but to look for more books to buy. tsktsktsk... i am seeing myself rushing to the nearest bookstore before sept 16. too bad, i dont have cash. poor credit card... hehehe...

the following are the books i would like to buy:



this is the book contains the 1408 short story which is a motion picture now. i think its currently showing in cinemas.



the usual da vinci plot about jesus and mary magdalene. i am just so fascinated with the fictional stories that have been created by this plot.



i didn't know that bob ong released a new book. i haven't been to bookstores lately. but will surely grab a copy of this. i can't miss this. hehehe...

that's all for now. i will still look for more books to buy. good luck na lang sa bulsa ko. hehehe...

victim of vanity

last thursday after receiving my pay for the 30th of the month, i've decided to buy the needed groceries and have my finger and toe nails cleaned. in short, nagpa-manicure at pedicure ako. hehehe...

unfortunately, i had 5 fingernails and 1 toenail murdered. yeah, my right middle and left index fingers were bleeding the most. they were hurt badly. i was not able to wash dishes for 2 days and had a hard time putting my hands into the pocket of my jeans. tsktsktsk... all for the sake of vanity. tsktsktsk...

honestly, that was only the second time i had my fingernails cleaned by someone else. i usually do it because i am afraid that i would only get hurt in the process. the first time i had my cuticles cleaned turned out ok but this time it was really a disaster. the reason mainly is i have a thin layer of cuticles. so from now on, i promise myself that i won't have my fingernails touched by anybody. nasa huli talaga lagi ang pagsisisi. however, i would never learn this lesson without the first hand experience. oh well... now i know. hehehe...

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

i am going to start my part time job on tuesday or wednesday. i still can't make up my mind if i am going to work for 3 or 4 days. nanghihinayang din kse ako sa susuwelduhin ko for 1 day. think of this, you are only required to work for 4 hours a day and they will pay you 125 pesos per hour. so that means that if you are going to work for 5 days a week, you will get 2500 pesos and that will be 10k per month. not bad, huh?! what more if you will be working full time. its a whopping 20k and you can go home during lunch breaks with a 5-10mins travel time. ang sarap noh?!

this will be a great help to my mom and me. this will surely augment our expenses. thanks to the angels that the good Lord has been continuously sending. thank you my dear Lord. :)

happy birthday!

i never thought i'd be able to keep a blog this long. my personal blog has celebrated its first year last august 29th and i am glad i was able to maintain it. and now, i will be writing in our group of friends' blog. i would like to welcome the birth of our group's blog. just like how my blog was born, i am glad we have a place to put our rants. as for me, more rooms to put my rants, booboos and babbles. hehehe...

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

i just remembered that i was not able to sleep last night. at about 7pm last night, farah texted me to ask me to come an hour earlier than my regular shift and so i agreed. i went to bed early so i can sleep for at least 5 hours. i ended up awake the entire night. i don't remember falling to sleep. walang biro. good thing i will be out at 6pm and finally, i can sleep. can't wait.

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

1408. watched this today. yep, while at work. sarap ng buhay noh?! this is only one of our perks at work. pero syempre, wag ka lang pahuhuli. hehehe... there might be a few perks, the downside is the fact that we only receive basic salary minus hmo and allowances. oh well, i still have a lot of things to be thankful for. :) going back to the movie, this was brought to my attention by riche our training supervisor. i am not a big fan of scary movies because i find it not worth my money if i watch it in the cinema. you might be wondering where i watched it... if you are curious click here. so here is what i can say about the movie. it is spooky but not that scary. however, john cusack did a great job and you will never listen to "We've only just begun" the same way again. the movie kept me glued to the screen waiting for the next scene because i cannot leave my station. hehehe... my rating will be 6.5 out of 10. :)

belated happy birthday to rio, bobby, and my good friend love.
