Wow! My supervisor mentioned to me/us that I/we’ve been in this company doing this work for 3 months already! WOW! It’s been that long?? LOL Guess the saying, “time flies fast when you’re having fun”, applies to me again (I think I said this when I posted about my NYC stay last November/December) and my sleep pattern has been haywired since then…Night shift has it’s ups and downs, at least night diff over-compensates my tax is a nice up =))

LOL I just noticed that I don’t have a don’t speak #69 :)) Sorry, dunno how to count :))

WOHOOO! I’M GONNA SEE BACKSTREET BOYS (and also NKTOB) THIS SUNDAY!! *fangirl mode on!*

So, I’ve been working for almost 2 months now and all I can say is, “F**K YOU GOVERNMENT! I’M PAYING TAXES NOW, BETTER CLEAN UP YOUR ACT!”

Yeah, been wanting to say that for years now LOL

One thing I’m glad about working is that I’m not yet stressed…2 months in and no stress, at all! Hope I can still say that when May/June comes in =))

Oh and I’m pretty lucky with my teammates…they’re fun to be with, especially since we’re all on the night shift (which I grew accustomed to)

So yeah, Happy Friday!

You know what I find absolutely funny? People posting and/or reblogging quotes with misspelled words in it. I’ve done that couple of times (the reblogging part) and I laughed at the mistake and took down the picture/post :)) Embarrassing.

The holidays are over, now I don’t have any reason to put off my job hunting pffft!

My days here in NYC are numbered :((

I’m loving this Thanksgiving week :) Everyone’s all excited for everything - the food, the parade, the gatherings, and of course, Black Friday :)

It’s nice to look at an age old-tradition from an outsider’s point of view.

I don’t want to think about leaving New York :(

I know that this is just a vacation stint but I’ve fallen in love with the city once more. I’ve been here since Oct 29 (yeah, I experienced the RARE Snow Storm!) and I’ll be going back to Manila on Dec 09.

I’ve been enjoying my stay here and every once in a while, enjoy being a full-on tourist. But most of the time, I pretend that I’ve been here since forever :))

This is one of those times that I won’t do my countdown :))

A huge thank you to all those who greeted me today/yesterday a happy birthday! Thank you again :D (and of course, thank you FB for posting my birthday haha LOLJK)

Had a nice simple birthday with my parents and yeah stuff like that makes me happy. I’m a no frills person :)

and of course I am very much excited to go back to NYC!! :) My flight’s tomorrow morning so yeah, little sleep for me tonight but I will definitely snooze my way from Tokyo to NY-JFK :) 14 hours of sleep!

YAY! See you guys when I get internet! :D

I’m quite enjoying tweaking my tumblr at this hour :)) Dunno why, but I do :))

What my dermatologist did/said to me yesterday:

  • Of course, pricked my face (it’s all swelly and redish and scars all over mi fez)
  • Made me cry (because of all the pricking)
  • Shared her almost-life story (it’s amusing, actually)
  • Asked me what I wanted in life
  • Asked me what job I’d like to do now that I am a graduate
  • Made me think of what I actually wanted and what I actually want to do

I love my derma…she’s so nice :) [and she has nice eyes and eye make-up]

Today was our Grad Rehearsal for the real-deal on Saturday :) I had fun catching up with my blockmates who’re graduating with us :) Although we were only 4 in our block who’ll be marching down PICC, so we kinda had a mini reunion of sorts :))

My friend (Apple) and I had this deal going on that we should survive the day in our new high heels, but come 330pm-ish, our feet can’t take the pain anymore…so our heels won :| Good thing we bought extra shoes/sandals so it was a-ok :)

My seatmates for Graduation are my blockies so we will be surely making chika on the side during the 3-hour ceremony…whoooopee! :)

aaaaand, Patoy taught us how to play Monopoly Deal! Yes, we are very huli sa balita but the game became a hit when we left school! Good thing Patoy bought her deck and played away! Now I get why the game became a huge hit in school :))

So, yeah…I can’t wait for Saturday! My Graduation post shall come up by sunday :) whooopeee!

Highlights of the day:

  • Cleaned my room :) YAY!
  • Quasi-planning for my upcoming NYC trip with my tita and also with Katsee :)

I’m a happy camper!

You know that everyone has their embarrassing moments? I thought I didn’t have those, but yeah, I have those and it’s in pictures..in FB :)) good thing my friend didn’t tag me on those very embarrassing (and probably drunk) pictures :)) 2009 was probably the year I really lived my college life :))

…and the rain poured once more :| hope the power will still be ok when I wake up later/tomorrow :)

a. 17 days to go! :)
b. 30 days to go! :)
c. 31 days to go! :) 

sa lakas ng hangin dito sa condo, parang laging may kumakatok sa door namin…nagkaka-vacuum effect na sa hallway :|

Oh Pedring, please go away :( 

18 days to go! oh and 31 days to go! aaaaand 32 days to go!! 

Counting down to 3 events! wohooo! :)

Been MIA on my personal twitter, FB and here since last weekend simply because I want to :)) too lazy to reply back to mentions and to game requests :)) sorry

oh and IDK where i placed my phone, so to those people who might’ve texted me recently, sorry I dunno where my phone is :)) [and I kinda don’t care about it hihihi]

Good thing I’m a bum nowadays since my face is drying up like a desert :| it’s peeling like crazy, and it’s like I’m wearing a facial mask 24/7 (that’s how dry my face is!) good thing the scars are getting lesser :)) 

the woes of having tons of pimples due to school stress of my last year in college :)) [oh and the woes of wanting to be a bit prettier :))]
