Have I Said Too Much?

I hate it when I am all ready to go to bed and not even a tinge of sleepiness seems to be present in my system. My bodyclock, I believe, has completely forgotten my nine o'clock habit.

Anyway, I have so many thoughts in my head now, contrary to my previous post where my head just went blank.

First, I spoke to my mom tonight and she changed her mind of allowing me to bring along Sam when I go to the island this August. Ohh I hate the thought. I guess I have to pray to my angels again and wish for another miracle. (God, I have so many plans for that dog-- we could go to the beach, we could walk every morning, she could play with Brad)

which brings me to my second thought... I am very much dazed with my l-i-f-e now. Well, not that, it's only now that it's happening, but really, I am kind of having my occasional qualms. What do i really want in this world? Is selling linen the best thing to do? Is looking for an 8 to 5 job the best resort for someone like me? What do I really want to do? And why Am i having these thoughts? My mind was so clear two weeks ago and now, I am having these thoughts? Weird.

Third, totally out of context, but has proved to be my favorite thought since yesterday-- if my life would be a movie, I want to play Kathleen Kelly of You've Got Mail.

Haven't I told you before here that the best romantic comedy that I have ever watched and will watch until forever is Meg Ryan's You've Got Mail? :)

Anyway, as I was saying, YGM had the perfect cinematography, the best music scoring, the best people!

Kathleen Kelly was independent, she was fun, she loved reading children's books, she ran her own store, and found happiness in every little detail in New York. She was just so happy with what she was doing!

And the way the movie presented NY, it's a totally different image for NY! People knew one another, they were friendly, traffic was not that bad, just fantastic! It seemed like they found contentment and working was not like a routine for them. Everything was fun and I would love to have that! And the seasons they had... Ooohh, I just love this movie. It never fails to fascinate me. Such a GV, this one.

How about you, if your life would be a movie, which movie would you choose?

Chillax

I have been staring at you for the past twenty minutes.

And thoughts, even random, do not just want to cooperate.

I guess blogging will have to wait for a while.

I wanna learn how to Apparate!

Now I gotta "Apparate" to United Kingdom (or use a Portkey perhaps) and storm to Jo's office and demand for Book VII at once.

HBP was fascinating that it raised so many mysteries and questions. However, it did answer questions as to why the dark wizard grew to be evil and merciless (I just gotta use these terms as the last chapters of the book seemed to stir up, out of slumber, and got to the bottom of things, and well, made you curse V. and his followers more).

I wasnt quite satisfied though with the Half-Blood Prince revelation. I expected more explanations, and more flying of curses and wands.

I am very much sure that Book VII will be the biggest hitmaker of Jo (first name basis, didnt you notice?). Jo laid out cards in Book VI. She made Half-Blood Prince her staging ground for the final book. She established characters, and histories more than ever here than from her previous books.

...which is why... I wanna APPARATE to UK now!

Majer

A major shift is slowly taking its form. I need a major push and 1001 percent of boosting.

This is major. Kailangan magaling sa diskarte (which I, most of the time, lack).

SOS. Natetense "me".

I Finally Got My HBP!

I have now fully switched on my "Busy Reading Harry" button!!!

God, I have been acting really psyched up since Friday! (plus the major happy thought that my PS was here all weekend-- whose picture was right below this post...)

Even if PS and I were kinda woozy, we battled our sluggishness and woke up early last Saturday. We had to be in Bibliarch by 7am (as I couldnt afford to not get my copy of HBP). And so we were there by 7am, didnt anymore park the car, and ran towards the bookstore.

I was so excited, I could imagine the smile on my face when the bookstore's staff greeted me with 'Good Morning'. I went to the cashier, presented my reservation copy and voila, there came Harry and his friends! I couldnt help it, I smelled the book (like what i always do) and plastered a big smile again on my face!

I even bought new outfit for this worldwide release. I made sure my aura would be at least my best aura for the month! And it really was! And the proofs:

It even went with a free bag! Fabulous!


After the HBP mania, we headed to Greenhills, had breakfast and shopped! We had the best time! I so missed this! Thanks JC, owe you one!

Yey!

My weekend was ultimately fabulous and the happiest...

That's my man. I was so glad he spent his weekend here in the city. :-) A happy, happy thought.

No Space

Mary Alice of Desperate Housewives once said that, "Human beings are designed for many things. Loneliness isn't one of them."


15,000 hits. Thank you friends.

Co-Celebrator

My "co-celebrator" for this special day is still in the island. I miss my "co-celebrator" so much.



Props to us.

"Peeping Tom"


Only this is not the college dormitory most guys usually peep into…

This, my friends, is the commencement of the rally that’s supposed to oust GMA. And the peeping toms, in this case, are girls.

I once again saw the faces of my friends saying, “What is the world coming to?”.

Am ZOO Eggzited!!!

Three days from now, I will be lining up in Bibliarch and getting my own copy of HBP!

This is such a happy thought!!! And I am so psyched!

Adik Sa Yo

The past weekend was spent in the four corners of my bedroom, covered in my favorite blanket, munching on my favorite comfort food, and watching all the 23 episodes of CSI Miami.

... And because of that, my eyebags are way over its normal size.

Well, at least I was able to finish watching them.

Rocks, Pebbles, and Sand

I'm quite sure most of us have read the story about the rocks, the pebbles and the sand (where the philo professor filled a mayo bottle with these three). But then again, I would still want to share with you a portion of that philosophy that struck me the most. Read on...

If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have
room for the things that are important to you. Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.


Oh, thank you, thank you.

Turrific

I did something terrific last Monday. It was my highlight for the week.

I would like to congratulate myself for that.



Now, I cannot wait.

Very Enlightening. I love it.

I finally was able to have my own Desperate Housewives DVD. Very enlightening. I love it.

Busted!

24/7’s got its disadvantages too.

The Makati Police.

Yep, I kinda had a scene yesterday with the Makati Police. My offense was using my cellphone while driving. (And well, I was talking to PS.)

But I was able to pull it off.

I had training for this kind of thing. Thank you to PS (who gave me a 101 for this way way before) and to my professor in Theater Arts. ;-)

In this kind of weather, she really cannot help but think of her boyfriend who lives in the island now.

It's so hard to be stuck in traffic, rain pouring down so hard on her car, and driving alone, and only has the car stereo to keep her company. And of course, there are still the happy times in her mind that she desperately wishes to crop up as soon as possible. She thinks about these things in her two-hour trip and ends up calling him and telling him to go back in the city.

Or else she will be the one to go there.

And then when she gets home, she will not anymore walk her dog. She's usually scared of the bats that feed on the fireflies and mosquitoes in her village. She's likewise scared of the thought that a Jeepers Creepers is in on the loose and will anytime take her away.

So, she will just have her dinner, by herself, and in front of the TV set, in her room. And then, she will get the phone again and talk to her boyfriend who lives in the island now.

Listen to AKAP anytime you want.

Just How Can You Pay?

E-Vat has been suspended indefinitely.

Well, personally, I think this is good news as I do not think I can afford to drive around with an empty gas tank. Just like my friends always say, "Krisis na talaga. Mahal na rin pati sine." -- which is so true! These days, your pockets can actually feel the prices going up already. Nakakatakot isipin. At nakakatakot na rin gumastos!

It's a good thing that EVAT has been suspended. Pabor sa mga Pinoy. But still, the main problem still remains unsolved -- how can we pay all our debts and get through this fiscal crisis?

I simply wonder how...
