a very loong and exhausting week...

This week is probably one of the longest weeks of my year. It felt like each single day was dragging. It also didn't help that it's been raining. Getting out of bed when it's raining sucks! (It sucks more to be inside the office when its raining and you'd want to go for hot chocolate and cuddle)
I literally counted each passing minute... (Please let me out of this misery!)
Either, there's not a lot of work at the office these days or I am such a lazy ass. Hmnnn.. Which is which?
My vote - A little bit of both.
For the past week, after the daily 4 hours worth of reports, 1 hour of lunch, 30 minutes of cigarette breaks and 1hour of reading my emails... The rest of the day is spent just counting the minutes until its time to log out and go home.
Tough job.
It's not very easy doing nothing inside the office. It's kind of embarrassing when you see other people busy with work and you're like... uhhmm.. surfing the net and playing trivia in facebook... hahahaha...
Well.. Saturday finally arrived and I'm going to start my weekend right by getting some good, undisturbed sleep...

Good night!

one bad day...

I went home for the weekend and committed to a friend that we will watch "The Dark Knight" before going to work on Monday. With that in mind, i woke up early on Monday and left home before 10am since its almost 3 hours with traffic.
Movie will start at 2pm so we had to meet up before that. I got in my apartment at 1pm, had to take a quick shower and dash to the mall. And since I was in a real hurry or else I'll be late, i wasn't able to dry my very long and very dry hair (i promise i'll have it fixed this week) so my hair was very limp... (you know how a good hair day makes you feel good? well it's the same thing when you're having a hair day crisis)...
On the cab on the way to the mall around 2 blocks away from my apertment, i realized I left my mobile phone at my apartment. Good job! I had to go back and run 4 flights of stairs on my boots.. I actually contemplated for 5seconds if i had to go back and get my phone... Just 5 secs though, I'm one of those people who can't live without my cellphone. I just need it all the time. My security blanket.
By the time I got back in the cab, I was sweating (take note i just took a shower 30mins ago). It was really hot outside...
With all the fuss i encountered, I was 5minutes early for the movie, so I started texting my friend. He was not replying. I wondered if he forgot... but it was impossible since we were texting a few hours ago checking if we're still going to see the movie. Hmnnnn...
Since he mentioned earlier that day that he had an interview before the movie, i assumed that it run late and he was not replying because he was in the middle of a possibly "life altering" interview. I wasn't mad or anything.
However, after all the hurdles i had to encounter just to get there on time, i wanted to throw a tantrum...
I even thought, is this the time I have to watch a movie alone? That's one of my things to do for this year...

Well, i was right, interview run late... and he was really sorry.. I wasn't really mad at him, it was an important interview.. I was just thinking... I really want to see Dark Knight. I've been hearing raves about the movie all weekend and I had to see the movie for myself (and of course to share tidbits with friends).

Well, that's it I guess...
I'm not really fond of Mondays...

surprise party...

It's one of my good friends birthday yesterday and her boyfriend asked me for help on the guest list. I was assigned to invite our friends from the office. We started planning 2 weeks ago and getting people to commit is not really that easy.
I started telling people about the surprise party and that they're invited. They had a lot of questions... I wonder why don't they just say yes.
It's free food and booze on a Saturday night, right?
Anyway, i was able to bring 10 people to the party so needless to say I was good at my task. =) It needed a lot of texting for reminders and calling people on the way, asking regarding their whereabouts, etc.
The party was good. The birthday girl was surprised. We all had fun.

Moral lesson: When somebody asks you to attend a surprise party... JUST SAY YES! IT's A LOT OF FUN!!! =0 because its a surprise... the look on the face of the celebrant (i remember that this should be celebrator as per my English teacher, but it really sounds weird)... is priceless...

SURPRISE PARTIES ROCK!!!

tata! gotta get some sleep now...

life is good to me

Every year, i make it a point to make a list of things i want to accomplish for the year, however for this year i didn't make one. I didn't write a list but I thought of the things I would like included on the list... Well, for the past 3 years, i'm like 5 out of 10 (since i usually write 10 things). For this year, i focused on things that will make me grow us a person. So, Last January... i asked my roommate to move out... i gave her 6 months(she was asking for a year! can you believe that???) she just moved out 2 weeks ago and i've been asking myself why haven't i thought of living alone years ago???
Well, for starters... it's expensive. Shouldering the rent by myself is not really that easy. But then, it makes me more responsible with my finances, right?
I would really like to think so. I got my new bestfriend(my new Compaq laptop.. wohoo!!!) and I really love it. I got my DSL installed this week and now I'm blogging. I love my life.
I've been so blessed. Well, not to the extent that I would want but I'm still on top.
What's missing??? Just that special someone... and yes, everybody's asking why i don't have one. At times, it makes me think... yeah, why don't I have a significant other... Hell! I'm a pretty sight... quick witted individual... sometimes it's also insulting... hehehe... i'm very particular with my hygiene so I'm pretty sure I smell good.. I can be mean but its really just being honest(brutally honest).
Darn it.. Oh well.. that's life for me.
i still think life is good to me. more to come... and definitely more to love.

tata! gotta take a shower!
