rooftop trip

There we were, all three of us… at the rooftop, enjoying the chilly breeze, with tequila rose and popcorn as our companion, we caught up with the latest happenings and events that took place that weekend.

Friday night was of course the kick-off party of the year, celebrating four birthdays so far. Hai was jam-packed with party people and everyone had an absolutely amazing time! We literally danced the night away, never mind if I was wearing high-heeled shoes (all three inches of added height!). Imagine me, doing the low-low-low dance, grinding with my fellow girlfriends and with those shoes… ooooohhhh, those killer shoes! I’m kindda surprised I didn’t get sprained ankles after that! Haha! The avatars were great! I missed our Antipolo escapades! Til next time avatars! Ate H never failed to crack us up everytime! With three Singapore Slings in her system, I was amazed she can still do the flexi dance – Rihanna style! She gave me a fright! I thought she’ll slip and fall! But she didn’t! She’s the flexi gymnast! Cheers to yah ate H! Ate A, Ate D, Ate J and Ate H were the bomb! They could still pass as women in their late 20s! The avatars rock!!!

Saturday was a bum day. We slept all day! We had nothing to do, and since we’re all broke, we never left the house. We bummed around, watching television, sleeping, surfing the net, and more sleeping! It was boring, I know, but there was nothing left to do!

Sunday was still a bum day… my housemates woke up at almost two in the afternoon. We ate, watched television, surfed the net, and watched some more television. Still a bore but we headed for the rooftop for a nightcap…

 
Here’s a thought: For all those who got boyfriends – what would you do if your guy is still good friends with his ex?

Hmmm… in my own point of view, speaking as a member of NBSB (no boyfriend since birth) club… well, the best thing to do is to be-friend the ex. There’s no point in waging war against her, after all, they’ve put their past behind and everything’s settled. And besides, it won’t be a good thing if his friends see you as an insecure girlfriend, getting jealous over no reason is a bit pathetic don’t you think? Instead, put your differences aside, and work your way in getting along with the ex. Who knows? Both of you may learn something from each other.

Another thought: What would you do if the present girlfriend of your ex still has this huge grudge against you? Take note, your relationship with the ex ended several years ago, not months, but YEARS.

Too bad! There’s only one thing left to do, talk to the girlfriend. This isn’t kindergarten, and besides the relationship ended way back. But if the girlfriend is still giving you a hard time, be more patient. Hopefully, she’ll come to her senses and give in to your request. Talk it out, assert the girlfriend that there’s nothing to worry about and that the relationship with the ex is nothing but platonic. As simple as that! But of course, this requires a whole lot of patience. Don’t loose your temper… continue to be nice… maintain your composure…

 
Another thought: What would you do if your friends stabbed you at the back without even knowing it? (Like duh? Are they that stupid? As a matter of fact, there are people like that, I know… it’s sooo sad)

I would demand an explanation! But since I’m infuriated at what they’ve done, I might just curse them all together! Haha! That’ll teach them not to mess with me! I am deeply scorned but I will rise from the ashes and revenge will be sweet! Haha! Seriously, if ever the time comes that they’ll explain themselves, it won’t matter anymore. I would no longer care, they can just put a lid on it. I am no longer interested. They’ve just proven that they don’t deserve my friendship. They’re weak and I won’t be always here to be strong for them. You are on your own “friends”… good riddance!

Change is the most constant thing in the planet, everything changes – good and bad, better or worse… sometimes I’ve learned to despise bad or worse changes, but looking back, it is something that defines other people. It is indeed a factor in one’s life. We all go through it one way or another. It is up to us if we wanna subject ourselves to such change. A whole lot has changed since I left college and Nagaland. I have become a better person, but reaching this state was not an easy road to travel, I’ve had my moments and I am not perfect. Other people may think that I’ve become such a brag ever since I stepped in Manila, but I am still that same “probinsiyana” girl, only better. I have grown, matured, and dealt with situations only us know and we have been through a lot also! But we managed to surpass all of it, my friends, or rather my sisters worked hand in hand, helping each other in those trying times. I am indeed lucky and blessed. I was beginning to think that there’s no such thing as FOREVER, but that was only applicable to the ex-barkada. With the sisterhood and POF, there’s definitely forever!!! I love my girls!!! Awww… (tears…) hahahaha!

blog pot

For the nth time, I find myself bored – with nothing else to do except lure my attention to something, in my opinion, the most productive thing to do as of the moment – BLOGGING.

So this time, instead of focusing on my room mate’s Word Find Book, my other room mate suggested I read Bob Ong’s book – A B N K K B S N P L Ako?!

First pages of this book were rather amusing. I never realized that reading books in Filipino language could actually be fun! Hahahaha! But that’s not the point, I haven’t finished reading it yet, coz, as I was reading the book, I found myself smiling… so I stopped… I was this close to laughing out loud but that would rather draw attention to myself. And my office mates would know that I’m doing nothing… which is not a good thing… and they would not approve…. But it’s unfair! They’re all busy except me… bummer! But whoever said life was fair?

And here I am, thinking of a good topic for my blog, and suddenly, I came up with nothing! Nothing! Can you imagine that? It’ll come to me… I know of it… maybe later… Goodness! Is my brain going stagnant? Damn! That’s not good! It’s horrible!

Now, I am still thinking of what topic I can tackle or discuss in this blog…

But my thoughts aren’t coming together for some reason…

Here’s a thought: what does this year have in store for me?

This is still a puzzling question on my part. I am still on my quest for searching that awesome job… God, please help me…

Another thought: what are the things I  wanna buy for myself this year?

                (still on the works… I’ll try to make it to 15 or 20… if I can)

1. Tuesdays with Morrie (novel) – I had been eyeing this one at Powerbooks the last time I was there… I should have bought it for myself!

2. Bible – as weird as it may seem but I wanna read it from cover to cover, understand more about my faith and the stories of God…

3. Business suits – pursuing a more corporate career this year would mean impressive suits…

4. Long sleeves tops – other than jackets, I have none… so I need to get myself some of these…

5. Flats / Sandals – they’re all worn out coz I use them everyday at work, and my ex-roomie borrowed it most of the time

6. Pants / Shorts – most of them are worn out too… the jeans are part of my office uniform… the shorts are my weekend ensemble whenever I go out with my friends

7. Bag – been using them for a year now… and my black bag is suddenly scaly… it’s peeling… huhu… and the zipper bag needs a trip to the washing machine…

8. Cell phone – my N3310 died on me last year, and I need a new one badly… I have 2 SIM cards and only one phone… go figure…

9. Pair of sneakers – got hand-me-down Chucks knock-off and it’s just this close to dying, I’d have to bid goodbye to them soon…

10. DVD of all Tom & Jerry cartoon series – used to watch this show when I was a kid… I gotta have these!

11. Undies – come to think of it, I haven’t purchased a single one for myself! Most of my undies are given to me as gifts from my family and friends! Hahahahaha!

12. Laptop – although I’m not sure if I’ll be able to purchase one for this year… but, we never know…

13. Roundtrip ticket to another country in Asia (other than the Philippines) or a vacation package somewhere in Asia – we’ve been planning an out of the country trip since last year… I’m keeping my fingers crossed on this one! I do hope we can all go this year…
