I tried not to read the headlines but i cant help it. Where is my beloved country going? We should be going up right now (because there's no way but up, right?)but why haven't we?

I dont want to go all political here, im just as disappointed as everyone. I wouldnt rant because it just causes noise pollution. I ate out tonight and had pizza, pasta and mushroom soup for two, i was billed almost 1000PHP. When i checked the bill(which i dont normally do) I was charged for a 20% service charge and VAT of 10 percent from the total bill. Bummer talaga!!! I wouldnt want to feel robbed because i had a full tummy but i really cant believe it!!! Next time, im going to have the weight im aiming for because of starvation or that i cant afford to eat out anymore. Where can i plant kamote,i dont have a backyard. Sorry for the term but were going down to the dogs!!

So, E- Vat is here, we have to deal with it. I love the Philippines with all its grime and corruption but do i have to live and breathe with it? Do i have to learn to love this country unconditionally or do i have to make a stand about it. Or does making a stand and prostesting a way to show unconditional love?

It was a happy, chaotic, mind boggling, palm sweating weekend for me. Im not sick, im just a little unwell. Kidding aside, i was just dazed and confused over the weekend but everythings fine now, hopefully. I just need to acomplish my personal goal today. Blog it later.

I discovered a new store in Town Center, its Fruits and Passion. They sell the sweetest, intriguing and affordable ( 100 ml 1650PHP) perfumes. I was scouting for a new cologne and discovered the store, aside from Body Shop's Bergamot and Bath and Body's scents i find their scent appealing. Too appealing i can eat myself. hmmm...Maybe i would get one this December.....shucks my wishlist is already full to date.

Read Gerith's blog....I do not agree na "tabain tayo"....we just need to be "concious eaters"....say what!!!?...this is so true...i was at the mall and was asking Hanzel what can i eat without getting fat. All mall foods make you fat, he said. Then i though, Asian Salad! and so i ordered that. I discovered another yummy treat at Sbarro, its Seafood Pasta Primavera...it has squids, shrimp, zuchinni, brocolli and topped with Alfredo Sauce....i ordered half, kunyari talaga diet, wait! diet pala talaga!!! Then i psyched myself that im full....Mind over Matter!!!!

To my fellow dieters ( ocampo?) Good Luck!!! And remember, an apple a day...makes you a horse...hehehe...keeps the hunger away. So, where's my freakin apple evil step mother?

I watched Pipol last night and was amazed that there's this girl who looks Caucatian and can speak Filipino well. I heared of the name Mishka Adams and thought she is with the likes of Toby Lightman, Norah Jones or Joss Stone. In a way she is, she sings jazz and rocks like them but my heart was captured because she's half Pinay, as in nag Tatagalog ha.

Cool talaga!!! At least we have what we can call our own (pinoy's love owning up to what is within the archepelago) jazz girl. I love listening to Marrakech. Cool chick talaga. Bohemian, artistic, very intresting.

Im proud of what's happening in our music and movie industry, except for Piracy.
Its like the creative juices are once again flowing. The last time i was so into OPM was when the 90's bandomania power was so high ( E-heads, Rivermaya, Alamid, Color it Red) but after that i switched to Alanis, Hootie and No Doubt etc.
I was comfortably hiding in those music while Salbakuta, Siakol and Aegis scream and blab their way to the music scene. It would be lucky to listen to a nice ballad of some pinoy's unrequited love.

Now with Quark Henares to name a few of the cool pinoy directors who i wish would go on and on with his dream and now Mishka, Kitchie,Hale....sana sunod sunod na to!!!

Where in the world is Paolo Santos!?! Still catching the Moonlight Over Paris?

The only thing is, if we jump in this bandwagon, i hope its for improvement of talent and not just fad.

Keep it up you guys!!!

Pinoy ako, Pinoy Tayo.

If Willy Wonka is alive and his factory is for real I would work there. Granted that I get to live there as well. Everything about me is Chocoholic. Im praying that i wont be diabetic. I could eat Cacao as it is. I could drink cocoa especially if its Mint flavor. My toothpaste is Close up ChocoLoco, yum!!!

This is one of my favorite brand of chocolate and its flavors:




The commercial is true, I can eat it when im hungry, i can eat it when im sad. I can munch it when im walking and even after brushing my teeth.

Good thing im not planning to have my wedding motiff brown and pink.

Aside from being Chocoholic i am also a Bagaholic.

What does one feel after a fall out?

It is hard to lose a very special person because of a fall out. Friends not talking to each other because of something petty. A friend trying her best to rekindle what is left but receives nothing in return. Both friends trying to bring back their love for each other but the fact of trying is so painful.

What makes a friendship fall out? Words that cause pain, words that was not said. Everything misinterpreted now caused dilema, confusion, pain from reminiscing and longingness.

Painful as it seems a person longing for someone gets paranoid of her actions or does not get peace of mind. One can only adjust in this state if one believes in CHANGE and of course Letting Go.

Learn to give up what you want and to choose to do what is right.
