test drive

2011-02-23T00:13:00.001+10:00

cool! a blogger app from google. why didn't they make one in the begining the first place?

i took this pic in the car. felt the urge to wear a girly hair clip. i blame it all on my princess. haha! :-D

random pics... yay!

2011-01-28T11:57:00.002+10:00

i'm totally killing my phone's battery by doing this... o, well. haha!

it's that time again...

2011-01-21T22:48:00.002+10:00

hahaha... it can't be a good thing that i only post every 6 months. twitter seems to fill my need to share.

besides, i always feel the need to assess the year that has just passed. 140 characters aren't enough for my yearly self-evaluation. 141 or 144 would probably be enough. hahaha!

i, for one, am glad that 2010 is over. i went through so much before in the beginning of the year that i really couldn't wait to get to the end of it. *sigh... never have i been so doubtful of myself. hopefully this year, i'll regain some of my confidence back.

but last year wasn't a total loss. i got to go to Philippines 3 times in 3 months. i got to spend some quality time with some of my relatives from my mom's side of the family. i got my mom to use the computer just so she could watch korean dramas online... and with all the spare time that i had, i got to discover more international tv shows, watch hitrecord.org's summer in the city series, and chat with drake on ustream.

2010. done. next, please.

2 months

2010-06-02T20:46:00.003+10:00

never underestimate what can happen in a small amount of time.

i was able to lose my grandfather and my job in the same month.

my cousins and brother have passed their educational milestones just last week.

being a bum for a whole month isn't all that bad. the bum part is the fun part of f-unemployment. it's the not having money part that's absolutely terrible.

new year

2010-02-20T13:00:00.000+10:00

technically it's been 2 months into the new year... but you know.

i'm gonna eventually find a twitter app that will post my tweets up here. i dunno when... but eventually. haha!

now that i have saved my direct blog e-mail into my phone... sorta. i'm gonna try to post more entries. with pictures.

i'm REALLY gonna try. maybe.

haha... no FOR REAL. try. totally.

warning

2009-12-08T13:15:00.002+10:00

yeah... i joined twitter again. it's all my htc hero's fault for having such a cute icon for its twitter app.

mobile-ly posting

2009-11-09T01:26:00.000+10:00

Tryin out this mobile posting stuff at work. With a computer right in front of me. Hahaha!

phone envy

2009-07-16T14:33:00.003+10:00

i love my nokia e65... really i do... but these phones are so COOL! it's like i can't help but want them... A LOT.

the nokia n96 has a tv in it... and the htc hero is. just. awesome.

one day... oh, well.

another late night

2009-07-11T01:03:00.002+10:00

i actually shouldn't say anything... at least my work schedule is not as bad as the hard-working nurses at the islands only civilian hospital.

but i can't help it. i miss eating breakfast at breakfast time. i'm so tired of the brunch thing.

i came home from dinner at 1o p.m. that's not even late. but here i am... blogging... about not sleeping.

i didn't even watch any of the kdramas, movies, others that i said i would. i should at least accomplish something with all this time on my hands...

but i'd rather sleep! hahaha.

what should i post in class?

2009-05-01T20:30:00.002+10:00

i don't know why it's so hard to figure out what to say in that headline writing class i'm taking. it seems like everyone on there writes so much.

while i find it impossible to respond to anything...

beginning my 27th year

2009-04-03T19:29:00.002+10:00

whoa! yes, it's my birthday. just when i was getting used to being 26. is that how it's gonna be from now on?

best thing of all? my grandma from my dad's side is here! i haven't seen her in years.

hey... what's monetize? how long has it been since i've blogged? hahaha.

clearly too long.

next week on dramatic music suspense!

2008-12-05T23:34:00.002+10:00

technology is so freaking awesome. thanks to the internet radio app on my phone, i could listen to old school horror stories when there is nothing to watch on television.

they even play the propaganda ads.

i think it's hilarious that i'm listening to it off my cellphone...

no blog

2008-10-04T10:55:00.004+10:00

whoo! it's been a long while...

i've been lazy.

hahaha!

buddypoke has run out of violent pokes.

and i don't know why i could take care of the superpoke pet, but not the live pet on facebook.

it might be because the superpoke pet doesn't die.

huh?

2008-07-11T15:13:00.001+10:00

ever look at a celebrity with celebrity parents/relatives long enough that you see the parent/relative?

nostalgia week

2008-06-25T00:39:00.003+10:00

whoo! i almost forgot i got a blog. hahahaha...

i've been reliving the late 90s for the past week, courtesy of my SD relatives sending my stuff back (THANK YOU!). it's a good thing my vehicle is equipped with a cassette player. hell ya, it's so old school.

ranch life

2008-04-29T01:15:00.003+10:00

there are some pros and cons to the ranch life. it's not that the household is hardcore farm living... we've got a mild case of rancheru.

cool things: free eggs, papayas, bananas.

not cool things: snakes, noisy chickens, stupid dogs.

speaking of dogs, the neighbor's dog finally dragged the concrete hollow block he was chained to all the way to our front gate. then he took a crap in front of the gate. at midnight.

vampire hours suck. (occasionally)

26...

2008-04-05T14:51:00.002+10:00

what was i doing this last year at around this time? i don't remember much... i'm pretty sure i wasn't working... hahaha... *sigh* those days were fun!

but not being (too) broke is nice too... so i can't complain.

subconscience is telling me that i feel unappreciated

2008-02-15T01:43:00.002+10:00

ah, valentine's day... the other day of the year where you celebrate by eating candy! whee!!!

it's hard to "forget" the holiday when you're reminded of it as soon as christmas is over... what the hell! hahahaha...

but i tried!

2008-02-04T17:26:00.001+10:00

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

first post

2008-01-16T21:57:00.000+10:00

ugh... i just watched true hollywood story: jenna jameson. what an interesting life she has. and not just cuz she's the "queen of porn."

i wanted to do a reflection of the year that passed, but... i forgot.

maybe next one.

what a horrible tv day for me.

2007-12-21T10:23:00.000+10:00

none of the people i wanted to win won.

DANI WAS ROBBED!!!!!

and vj is an asshole... he doesn't deserve to win. good-looking assholes get enough shit.

good thing i didn't see i love new york. actually... whoever she picked... i don't think it would have mattered. she's so crazy.

season of giving

2007-12-06T01:43:00.000+10:00

they've been showing britney's commercial for her scent 'curious' a lot lately.

everytime i see it i feel like i should buy some cuz, you know, she's gonna need a lot of help with the divorce and the custody battle...

someone's gotta take care of her kids... and if i buy a bottle of 'curious' i would be helping them, right?

but then i vaguely remember that i'm lazy...

hahaha

sigh

2007-11-28T12:09:00.000+10:00

entries will be far and in between.

not like i was ever that faithful to posting...

hahahaha.

check mii out

2007-11-17T08:09:00.000+10:00

who would've thought that looking at other people's miis would be so entertaining.

we spent 3 hours just trying to see who we could find...

like waldo...

so after looking at oodles of michael jacksons and chuck norrises, we decide that we could make one too.

nope... damn! we tried so hard to make angelina jolie too...

uh...

2007-11-14T14:29:00.000+10:00

we're gonna need a fourth player for rock band...

take the cake

2007-10-28T01:51:00.000+10:00

take the cake is a tv show where people can call or text in to win money on BET.

yesterday, they were playing a game in where you had to take one letter out of the word 'cake' and make a new word. in the last sentence, i've made 2, 'take' and 'make.' one person called in... her answer was 'ake.' the host was trying to explain to her that 'ake' wasn't a word. she said, "i made it up." with so much attitude. hahahaha... the look on the host's face was so great.

3 in the morning...

2007-10-19T15:04:00.000+10:00

the good thing about getting home from work at 3 AM is that i don't have to wait around to fall asleep cuz i'm too fucken exhausted to wait.

the entertaining thing about being at work that late is watching the rat run around the floor. i wonder if i could train that rat and get it to do a lap around the newsroom.

the nice thing about driving that early in the morning is how cool the air is. it really feels good.

but all of that doesn't make me wanna stay at work that late anymore than i already did.

the world's most smartest model

2007-10-12T21:09:00.000+10:00

wow. i knew this show was gonna be hilarious... but really... "i think that dude is from chernobyl..." they say about the guy who REPEATEDLY says that he's from the soviet... hahahaha!

gaston... and his awesome game...

the bathrooms and fridge have locks on them in where the code is the answer to a question. one of the questions was the year that the U.S. declared its independence. one of the models yelled, "ooh! 19..."

mady lynn... is that how you spell her name? her category was round things. she tried to be slick and repeated "balls, cherries, balloons, tires." over and over again... that dumb bitch should have went home for that shit...

maybe next week!

happy birthday, mom!!

2007-10-10T23:03:00.000+10:00

ate some chinese with the fam for mommy's birthday...

man, elementary school jokes have totally gone to another level...

my cousin, who's 8, says "say i... now spell hop... then say -ness."

and my other cousin, who's 11, says "that's old!"

what the hell?

oh, the drama...

2007-10-04T19:01:00.000+10:00

ok, not really.

the hilarious thing about myspace is that most people on it don't seem to know anything about the internet, besides myspace... hahahaha!

i'm not saying that i'm an expert... but i'm totally calling out those guys that leave comments on bot profiles.... those users who still think myspace has a tracker? yeah! those people.

anyway... a couple days ago while making the myspace rounds... i find my 2nd cousin's (third cousin's?) space. she said that she makes $45,000-$60,000 a year. i tell my mom to look at the screen and she says, "what? that can't be true. she's only a high school graduate." i don't think my cousin understands that whole financial status thing.

and so now my mom is gonna tell my auntie that my cousin said that.

late nights at kmart

2007-09-27T15:50:00.000+10:00

after making sure that the paper doesn't have (too) many mistakes in it, i head to guam's favorite late-night haunt, kmart because i need a surge protector.

i go to kmart at the wee hours in the morning... a lot... and so i'm pretty used to them having just one register open cuz i know that this is the time they restock their many shelves. anyway! so i'm in the one line, and there's this woman who, in my opinion, hasn't been to kmart when it's in this condition. she's so mad that there's just one line that she starts exclaiming, "why is there just one line?" and "i thought this was a big company." she was there with her kids too, who were conveniently no where to be found when she was expressing her anger.

so the team leader opened a line.

it's baaaaaaaaaaack

evil goose, originally uploaded by Surely_showerfrsh00.

yes, folks... the evil goose is back.

i know it doesn't look very threatening right now... but i'm not about to provoke a mean old goose just for a blog photo-op...

you must be crazy!

trouble at da ranch

2007-09-19T11:42:00.000+10:00

$3,000 worth of roosters... and 2 boonie dogs... gone!

not the best thing to wake up to on a Wednesday morning.

the pickup artist

2007-09-19T01:17:00.000+10:00

those contestants on the pickup artist are so adorable... and when i say that, i mean it in a little-kid-doing- something-cute kinda way. they were actually taking notes from Mystery, like good nerds do.

this is the blog

2007-09-02T13:33:00.000+10:00

from now on, i'll be using this blog exclusively—cuz it's so pretty, hahahaha— and the xanga will still be around for archival purposes. and for berna to comment on it! hahahahaha...

so since this is the blog... might as well fill in the space with what has happened since last week...

PANGASINAN OLD WIVES' TALE # 146
the fam celebrated the august birthdays last saturday. and my auntie, the designated party animal at all our gatherings, takes my left hand and smushes it. then she takes my right hand and does the same thing. then she takes a look at my leg. at this point i'm half wondering what is she doing... and half thinking it must be pretty late cuz she's usually not this weird until the bbq has been going on for a couple of hours. and then she says something to me in pangasinan. uh... what? the only words in pangasinan i know is that one phrase they always say when you did something bad. my auntie says it again, and asks my cousin sitting next to me to help her convey this discovery she's just made by looking at my hands and legs. my cousin then has this face that tells me, "oh, man... i didn't need to know THAT!" and so i ask him... what did she say?

he says, "auntie said that your thing is plumpy." my thing? "yeah... you know... down there?" OH! that thing.

THE MULTIPLE JOB LIFE
my life as a so-called overachiever will be over very soon. thank goodness... i'm looking forward to rolling out of bed at mid-morning. hahaha... like i wasn't doing that already!

MOVIES!
i saw superbad and war this week. i'm also the proud owner of the hot fuzz dvd. i also got blades of glory, but i haven't found the time to watch it.

maybe tomorrow... cuz i'm off at big navy... YAY!

sleep clock's messed up

2007-08-25T14:51:00.000+10:00

but no matter how late i sleep, i always end up waking up at 10. even if i'm still sleepy.

all the time in the world...

2007-08-21T11:53:00.000+10:00

all they ever do around here is have meetings... and they seem to talk about the same thing... you would think that they would have had some of these issues dealt with, but then again i wouldn't know because i'm just temporary. WHOO! hahahaha...

ugh... and now i wish i brought the thicker sweater...

2007-08-16T13:58:00.000+10:00

yay! the pseudo-gout is gone! you now how i know? because i'm wearing HEELS! whoo!!!

another one?

2007-08-14T15:32:00.000+10:00

yes... i'm gonna fill up the internet landfill with more of my garbage...
