WHY ME?

Monday, August 25th, 2008

Why me sore eyes? Why me tonsillitis? Huhuhuhuhu

What have i done to deserve this? Why Me? :(

It’s been four days since I had my tonsillitis and till now my throat is aching. I really do hope that tomorrow this will be ok, since I took medicines twice already. However, while waiting for it to heal…my eyes begin to turn red. :(

Yes I have sore eyes, though it’s only my left eye that has it (sore eye? whatever). I don’t know why I have one since I thought that sore eyes only happen during summer season. Oh well, WHATEVER! I really hate thinking that sooner two of my eyes will get infected. :(

I really really hope that these two will heal within this week. Hay, I’m so deppress..


The Frost CRAZE!

Monday, August 25th, 2008

Here I am…Staying at home alone..Listening to the rhythm of the pouring rain. Sitting in front of Mr ACER and feeling depress..Sad because I’m here while my friends are there enjoying their videoke gala performances. What about me? I practiced my piece for days already and it’ll gone, for nothing! You know why? Waaahhhhh!!! I have TONSILLITIS!!!!!!

And it’s killing me really!  This itchy and soaring throat is really killing me! And there’s no one to blame but these frosts that I drank last Thursday. So my friend Paul and I dated (naks!) no! we just had dinner at this famous JD resto. I ordered chicken with rice and oh the ever seductive Mocha Frost (tse!). I had a great time sipping on the straw playing with the whip cream and really love it! Since I ordered that before I really felt at ease and worried nothing. It’s just my favorite. Even if when my friends and I go to a videoke house, I always order that one, for always. Anyway, after we’re done eating, we went to SM City to pay my bills (CC and cable tv bills). After strolling, we decided to go to a coffee shop. There I again ordered…tantararan!…Strawberry Margarita Frost! Hello frosty! Haha…I really love it since it’s strawberry with a taste of coffee and I don’t know where that coffee flavor came from. I love it to the extent that I even grabbed Paul’s order. :D

After hours of sitting, sipping and listening to the band, we decided to leave with friend Amy. At the office… I felt thirsty, only to realize that sh*t I have no mug..I forgot my (Snow White) mug! Waaahhhh!!!What will i do????

I searched for the goodies in our pantry, hayz, no bottled water, just juices. Do I have a choice? None! So I had one bottled juice, pineapple flavored. Damn it! So sweet! Sweeter that the Frosts! After hours, I noticed something itchy and sore on my throat, i felt pain when I swallow, but I disregarded it to think that it was nothing. I hurriedly finished the juice and filled the bottle with water. Though I already drank 1 bottle of it still, the pain never gone…

Until now, Sunday! When I woke up, I felt something on my yeah throat on the left side. I then checked it, to see what it looks like on the mirror. To my surprise, I saw my tonsils, swollen with white spots and it looks really like this.  Poor me, I then told my mother about it and she let my Sis in law bought an antibiotic. After I took the med, still nothing is changing, the pain never goes away. I waited..waited..and waited…still nothing happened. Until I decided to take an Advil (since it’s an Ibuprofen), but still, nothing is really happening..Waaahhhh!!! I want to cry…

I hope this will get better tomorrow…Wish me luck! :(

*To Mocha Frost, Strawberry Margarita Frost and that pineapple juice…I HATE YOU! Please don’t ever  seduce me again! Hmp!


Baptism / Christening of a Child

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

Weeks ago, my nephew was baptized. I was chosen as one of the Godmothers. The ceremony was short, for like 15 minutes. So it’s not that tiring standing till it ended. As I was there, listening to the Priest, it got me to thinking, what does baptism really means for us Catholics/Christians?

I know that I was also baptized when I was a child. My mother told me that I was months old when I received my baptism. Now, I’m on my 24th, grown up, still the meaning is not that clear to me. What is the use of Godparents, how it’ll affect me as a Christian, etc. So I did my research.

It says that:

**Baptism is not to be regarded merely as a ceremony devised for the Christian naming of infants. It is a sacrament, in which the children are brought publicly to be Baptised, and to be received into the Church of Christ; and in which they are brought into the Spiritual Presence of God, in order that they may receive His Holy Blessing. It is a service of consecration and dedication, of faith and thanksgiving and worship of God.

When an infant is baptised he/she can’t answer the questions for him/herself, so someone needs to answer on his/her behalf.  Godparents (also called sponsors or proxies) were originally introduced into the baptism service for this reason.  In the history of the church godparents also promised to bring the child up in the Christian faith, and took responsibility for this.

For Roman Catholics, baptism by water is a sacrament of initiation into the life of children of God (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1212-13). It configures the person to Christ (CCC 1272), and obliges the Christian to share in the Church’s apostolic and missionary activity (CCC 1270). The Catholic Tradition holds that there are three types of baptism by which one can be saved: sacramental baptism (with water), baptism of desire (explicit or implicit desire to be part of the Church founded by Jesus Christ), and baptism of blood (martyrdom).

I Love You. Do You Love ME too?

Friday, August 8th, 2008

This is the question that we often hear from our love ones. I’ve been hearing this a lot of time already. Easy to hear, but definitely hard for the ones saying.

There are times, when we’re in love with a person, we are so afraid. Afraid to ask and afraid to know the truth. But what’s wrong in asking? Yes, there’s nothing wrong, the it’s more on the answer. How would you feel if the answer is a NO? How would you feel if the answer is “we better off friends”?

I hope it’s that easy just like Barney’s song that goes…

I love you,

you love me,

Hope you say you love me too…


Birthday Song by Fed

Wednesday, July 9th, 2008

Here is the song that my friend Fed gave to me. Thanks Fed! ^_^


Birthday Song

Fedo Dedo

Birthday ko nanaman

Araw ng kasiyahan at pambusog ng tiyan

Pagod na ko sa kakaisip

Huwag naman sana akong ipilit

Kung anong wish ko itong taon, baka hindi man matupad

Isang taon na kong naghihintay

Hayan nanaman libu-libong regalong nakahanay

May kiss na galing sa king nanay

May shopping nanaman sa ukay-ukay

Sana ganito na lang habang ako’y buhay

Birthday ko nanaman

Puro chismis kain at kantahan, sulit hanggang hapunan

Sa gabi nama’y dating ang inuman

At syempre andyan lagi ang tugtugan

Mukha na yata ako’y tumatanda

Sana naman ay cute pa rin akong dalaga

Mahirap isipin, ngunit kailangan tanggapin

Kung kelan ako tumatanda, mas lalo akong gumaganda

Chorus 2x

Birthday ko nanaman

(sana araw-araw ang birthday ko…)

Birthday ko nanaman..

(sana araw-araw ang birthday ko)

Time for a Change- What?!

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008

Yup! I mean it! It’s time for me to cool down and eliminate some of the attitudes that I have. I don’t believe in New Year’s resolution, but I do believe in making my self better than before. ^_^

My birthday is coming up, yet I don’t have any idea what will in store for me on my 24th year.  I hope that more “positive” accomplishments rather than another failure, waste of time, whatever!

Hayz, 6 days to go…


7 Days to go—and still counting!

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008

My birthday is coming up and I’m counting down on it… 7 days to go!

Well, I have a lot of wishes. But I don’t actually believe. But I do wish..hoping that even one of them will come true.  Complicated huh?! ;)

Anyway, on my birthday, I don’t have plan much. I am just thinking of gifts! Though I know nobody will give one. Haha

I have here my wishlist. If someone will buy them for me (or even one) it’ll be good ^_^.

* A Maroon 5 New CD-> I just love their songs! Love Adam too.. hehe

* A new Hale CD-> I just want to have one. Please.

* Since I already have chuck I want to own a new stilleto shoes, which I saw in Janeo SM City! Hehehe

* MP3 Headset-> I just want to have new one, just its headset. And don’t ask me why. ^_^


Manny Pacquiao Knocked-Out David Diaz, Plus the Boston Celtics Visit

Tuesday, July 1st, 2008

Last Saturday or should I say Sunday (in the Philippines) Filipinos stopped whatever they’re doing and switched off to their respective televisions or radios for…that includes myself…for one reason, to see the Manny Pacquiao and David Diaz fight: The Lethal Combination. ^_^

Ok, so the fight was not live on TV but it was on the radio. So, while waiting for the fight to be televised, I turned on my radio and had it on its highest volume while cooking my favorite, Adobo. Since, it was live, I lend my ears and listened carefully as the DJs (i don’t know if they were DJ’s or just announcers)  carefully announced every detail of the fight. It was nerve wrecking to hear those comments and all. But in the end, as I expected, Manny won. I waited for an hour to see it on TV. It’s really that different watching the fight than just listening.

So I spent my 2 hours watching the telecast and was surprise to see the bloody face of Diaz and I pitied him so much. Though he had those cuts and blood on his face he still managed to last till round 9. When he finally got knocked, I was so happy. Happy that Manny Pacquiao got another Title as Lightweight Champion, made history as the first Asian to have 4 titles, and of course for giving us, Filipinos another pride. (more…)


Chuck of my Life

Saturday, June 28th, 2008

Finally, after years of wanting to have one, now I just got it. I am not a sneaker fan all my life. Wearing high-heeled shoes or sandals is just my thing.

So why did I buy Converse’s Chuck Taylor? Honestly, I like it’s rugged design. Simple. Cool. Wearable.I bought it as my birthday gift for my self. ^_^

Mine is black. Before I wanted to buy the one with designs, but it’s just too pricey for me.So, I chose the plain one instead.

Just love it!

* I officially had it last June 7, 2008 ^_^
