PC for Josine =)

I'm so proud of my sister, Josine. She finished her first year in college with good grades. I really appreciate her understanding while I'm still "feeling" the responsibility of being like a parent to her after our mom died.

She understands that I still have fears and uncertainties in making decisions for us since I'm the eldest but I'm afraid to admit that to her and my brother. It won't make things better or any easier at all, since I need their help. I need their help so I can understand them and their needs, I'd know what I have to do.

I saw her efforts in getting good grades. I saw her sleep late just so she could study well for her exams. I saw her saving money so that she didn't have to ask more money from me. I also learned that she would budget her allowance so that she can go to the internet cafe and do her projects without asking for additional allowance.

Seeing her sacrifices, I feel she deserves to have a PC that will make her school life a lot easier. Last semester, she had 5 papers to do. I got worried thinking she would have to be out late, unsafe, in a cafe to finish her paper. I think she deserves this one thing that I know will be useful in her studies.

Tadah!! A desktop PC, well, this is not the exact model, but close to this. =D
With the help of our dad, I was able to purchase a desktop PC for her. I asked my friends to help me fill it with applications that will be useful in her papers, book reports, projects, etc. Thanks to them, it has now become an amazing tool for learning.

Of course, I decided to have games in it as well - WORD GAMES, my favorite! And at the top of my list.. (drumroll)

Bookworm Deluxe!! Woohoo!!
Josine is now spending most of her remaining days of summer vacation trying to beat my score. (Applause! Thank you!Thank you!Thank you!)

Hopefully, she'll start exploring the Microsoft Office applications soon, so she can use them with ease once the need arise... hehehe

Daughtry: Live in Manila

As I was going home yesterday from work, I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw a billboard in Guadalupe that clearly says that Daughtry will be here in Manila.

I immediately remembered Vayie who has this huge crush on Chris Daughtry. So huge that she chose him over Adam of Maroon 5. Ha! Move out, Adam! Hahaha.

Chris Daughtry
DAUGHTRY
I find Chris oozing with sex appeal - well more like the rock star appeal. However, as mentioned before, I'm so into David Cook these days. =D

David Cook
again, David Cook
David, smokin' hot as always!!
They will be performing in July and sad to say, I won't be able to watch them play because the tickets are too costly for me. It's okay, I love their music and that's all that matters, at least for me. Plus, I am not the type who loves being among crowds.

I remembered the Click Five when they came here in Manila. I get all "kilig" when I see Kyle Patrick. I even searched him in Facebook. (He's now a friend - in Facebook)But I'm just too lazy to go to the mall on a Sunday afternoon to see him.

Kyle PatrickAdorable
Kyle Oh so cute!
The Click Five
Well then, maybe I'm not that of a big fan of Click Fan or Daughtry that I thought I was. Again, I think the most important thing is that they get to share the music to a lot of people, disregarding differences in culture, race, and faith. (Hmmm, parang si Japs lang ah! **wink)=D

PBB Fever

This year's PBB teen edition is getting more interesting every day, that even though I'm really tired from work, I still stay up late to watch the prime time edition, which gives the full updates of the events inside Kuya's house.

Wala pa naman akong gusto sa mga housemates, na tipong gusto kong ipagdasal na sana siya ang manalo ng milyones pero may mga gusto na akong mga teens because of their personalities.

BEAUTY, pranka siya at temperamentalpero very sweet at genuine
RONA, recently ko lang siyang nagustuhanafter going against her "friends" in the house, just to stand up for what is right. =DMala-Neville Longbottom ang ginawa niya.
and...

ROBI, the GOOD LEADERang kuya sa bahay ni Kuya, handsome, smart, at responsible
Huwag nating pag-usapan kung sino yung mga teens that I find annoying. Let's dwell o the positive feelings!! hehehe.. for now.. =P

David Cook is soooo hooot!!!

Just heard from Vayie (and was confirmed in Yahoo!) that Jason Castro (the cutie in dreads) got voted off after his terrible performances of Bod Marley's and Bod Dylan's songs for the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame week in American Idol last night. Such a disappointment, he's in the top 4, no eexcuse to give such mediocre performances.

Jason Castro, after one of my favorite performances(ang cute niya 'no holding the ukelele)
Sabi tuloy ni Josine, "Ano ba yan, Ate?! Panira ng gabi!". Hahaha, poor sis. She's not really a fan of the show, she finds it boring. Minsan na nga lang manood, ganon pa?! Si Jason kasi feeling Rastahman (spelling?)

Anyway, moving on to the real hottie, DAVID COOK! AAAAH! My poor housemates, they have to deal with my shrieks and shouts every Wednesday and Thursday of each week til this season of American Idol is all over.


He is so talented, so handsome. smokin' hot! hehehe., did I just say he's hot? hahaha. I love David Cook!!!

I hope he wins, although I know it'll be tough if he ends up battling it out with David Archuleta, still.. he's hot!!

Ciao!

Last work day for the week

This is a wonderful week in the office. Everybody is just in good spirits, that we are all just laughing most of the time.

Finally we started planning for our much-awaited teambuilding! Tin and I are so excited to look for beaches and resorts over the internet. We just can't wait to hit the shore anytime soon, mindless of the fact that the rainy season is near. =D

For now, we're just waiting for our teammates' reactions, suggestions and comments on the places we see as perfect to relax, unwind and bond with one another.

First, Bagac Bay Beach resort in Bataan


Our second choice is (it really sound funny - we always have a laugh when this resort is mentioned - si Vayie kasi eh hehehe.. **wink) Kubling Hardin resort in Antipolo





And our favorite place (well, at least for tin and me), Kabayan Resort in Batangas!!

**couldn't find any more photos to justify why we prefer this
I just hope our plans push through before we are (AGAIN) forced to stay in the office for months because of high volume of emails. =P

GO UNO ANIMO TEAM! ONE TEAM, ONE GOAL, ONE MIND!
