Just want to let you know that I'm still here. I just didn't have the time to keep my blog up-to-date since my last entry which I think I made while I was still in training for chat with Vayie and Kim.
Here are some of the things that happened/thoughts I had in the past 3 months:
  • Tin gave me an eBay pin. (Thanks, Tin! Love it and I love you more!)
  • I finally have my very own Twilight Saga collection in my arms. Thanks to Tetay! I had another reason to cry.
  • I already spent a Christmas Eve in the office for the first time and it was an agony.
  • I felt like leaving this job that I came to love (because of the people I work with - Uno Animo) because of people who thought they knew better.
  • Thank God for my friends (Uno Animo), they gave me enough reasons to stay ~ their friendship and their sense of humor.
  • RJ, Josine and I visited my mom last December 30th. We had fun. It's like sharing stories with our mom the way we used to.
  • I got myself a planner this year -- to help me manage my time and money and organize the things that need my attention. (But I always end up doing things a week AFTER -- talk about procrastination)
  • Ceasar gave me a new bag and new coin purse.
  • I promised myself I will add color to my life this year -- more color to my clothes, stuff, etc.
  • I'm so fond of Black this year -- Black purse, black bag, black umbrella, black brush.
  • I bought Ceasar a new messenger bag and 3 pairs of socks -- ayoko nang makita yung bag niya na hindi niya mabitawan dahil nabili lang daw niya yun sa ukay-ukay sa halagang singkwenta pesos 3 years ago. Utang na loob! Di bale nang gumastos ako.
  • I had the chance to spend my much-awaited VLs in Tagaytay but ended up getting sick.
  • I was hospitalized for three days due to acute bronchitis.
  • Ceasar bought me a "Blue Book" shirt to cheer me up.
  • I am now addicted to the TV series "24".
  • Warrick Brown's death in CSI Season 8 made me cry.
  • Gil Grissom's eulogy at Warrick Brown's funeral made me cry harder.
  • CSI Miami's Season 1 is boring.
  • Dr. Gregory House is soooo funny.
  • I have a crush on Danny O'Donoghue (vocalist, The Script) for 4 months now.
  • But still not close to beating, William Petersen (Gil Grissom, CSI), Edward Cullen (Twilight Saga) and Harry Connick, Jr. (Leo, Will and Grace). =D
  • Ceasar and I failed to celebrate our Valentine's week '09 at the UP Fair.
  • But we celebrated our Valentine's at Chaikofi and Scooperman, The Block.
  • I can't wait to see the movies: "Angels and Demons", "The Matarese Circle", "New Moon" and "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince".
  • The songs: "Single" (NKOTB), "Rain" (Razah), "Hypnotized" (Gemini), T-Shirt (Shontelle) and "Just Dance" (Lady Gaga) make me want to go to a bar and groove!
  • The songs: "P.S. I'm Still Not Over You" (Rihanna), "The Man Who Can't be Moved" (The Script), "Again" (Janet Jackson), "Have You Ever" (Brandy) and "Heartbreaker" (Tank) almost always put me to sleep.

I admit, I prefer Facebook over Friendster. I just find it easier to use and more pleasant to look at, but it doesn't matter. Bottomline, these social networks has helped me rekindle friendships, reconcile with people whose existence I vowed to treat with silence and indifference, reconnect with people who I didn't have any connection with and simply make new friends from all over the world.

Last night, I decided to check my Facebook account while watching a boring part of "24". I received a message from one of my ex-boyfriends. To my dismay, he asked me, "Who are you? You look familiar and you're too pretty to ignore but I don't remember where we met." WTF?!! Pagkatapos mo akong paiyakin nung Valentines day, 10 years ago, tatanungin mo ako kung sino ako?! (Sorry, ex-bf, ganon talaga nasabi ko sa sarili ko at least.) Yes, sinabihan niya ako ng pretty pero walang halaga sa akin yun dahil di niya ako naalala. Ganong na ba ako ka-forgettable? Sino ba siya, si Simon Cowell? Anyway, I simply sent him a courteous response with the gory details of how and why he broke up with me for another girl. Hehehe... We already talked and he gave me loads of excuses why he didn't recognize me. It felt like we were once again in a relationship. =P

- I had to read this again, Jen. I thought you were referring to the socks. My goodness. =)

At kung sino man `yang ex-boyfriend na `yan. Now you know why he’s already an “ex” in the first place. Shoo-shoo!

Welcome back to the blogosphere. We missed you!

Thank you, Vayie. Na-miss ko ring mag-blog, pero mas na-miss kong basahin mga entries ninyo.

Ang ex-boyfriend kong nabanggit ay hanggang ngayon nagpapaliwanag kung bakit hindi nya ako makilala, to the point na mukha na siyang tanga. Hahaha..

ouch! that hurts! iniwan ka nya on valentines day, ten years ago and then after a decade hindi ka naman nya na recognize? thats a 2 straight punch on your face...


y does he explaining? cguro nahihiya, sinadya man nya yun or just an honest mistake of course that means alot...

but i think ieni now you've got even with him (ur X), like you have said until now he's trying to explain and gave you loads of excuses to the point na mukha na syang tanga, stupid, idiot or watever, that really hurts too...

masabihang mukha ng tanga ng isang taong minahal mo b4 na i think ang naging kasalanan lang is naging honest sa sarili and sau...

but if im the guy, i would accept everything, kahit anong words pa yan, expression lang or whether u really mean it, tanggapin ko lahat yun just to keep the friendship that after a decade u thought na nakalimutan na and ndi man mabalik yung sandaling naging kayo para mas makilala nyo yung isat-isa coz of the situation now, yun lang friendship sana ma retain at wag mo isipin na naging masama sya, to think na gusto ka pa rin nya maging kaibigan kahit EX na kau, iilan lang mga mag EX na nagiging magkaibigan...

hope give him a chance... not as lovers... as friends...

@Anonymous - Actually, we've been friends naman after the break up kaya siguro sumama loob ko kasi we were friends tapos nakalimutan niya ako.

Anyway, we already talked and I realized that it was indeed an honest mistake. We just find the message I sent him pretty funny. We just promised each other na we'd stay in touch from now on. =)
