I Don't Know What to Call This...

Today I cried my heart out because I won't able to go to the wedding coverage on Saturday as part of my training in photography. The reason: i have no camera to be used, no money either to buy one and it's really very very frustrating I must say. Not even a pint of double dutch ice cream or primo pizza could ever cheer me up except that of my boyfriend's kiss :)

Just can't help thinking why bad things happen all at the same time... Like problem with the kids' fees, my very loving family won't help me and I can't get go to the wedding coverage. Maybe there's a reason to all of this, I will just have to wait and be patient for a while.

If its any consolation that would be FOUR MORE DAYS TO GO BEFORE OUR HOLIDAY. About three days ago, I already have packed my stuff, I even brought my portable kettle with me so that we could have a cup of coffee anytime in the island. My bestfriend Abi bought me a new pair of swimsuit which is really nice and so generous of her to do that.

Also, my daughter, Kitty, wrote something on her reminder's notebook some stuff to be brought to the island:

- 'sand black'
- 'baiting suit'
- 'googles'

Cute huh? I'm sure you figured it out already what were those. This vacation will be great, last year we were so crazy going to the resorts ALMOST EVERY WEEK and there's no trace of fair skin on us just PURE TAN or bronze-y look. Cool, eh? Just what my bestfriend and I love doing.

Jealous now? No worries, I'll post some pictures of me in 'two-piece', my bestfriend, and our kids in our escapade to the islands of Guimaras in Iloilo City :) Bye for now! PS: Hope it's not a goodbye for photography too.

Happy Summer!

PLDT really SUCK

Been wondering why bad things happen to me 'technically' lately. Until I realized I wasn't the only one experiencing PLDT services' crap!

My telephone line was faulty they have to change a new one and it took me a couple of weeks to wait til it's ok. So I thought the agony of waiting was over when it was fixed only to find out that my misery with that telephone company isn't over yet.

I have bought three inoperative internet cards which I tried to return from the store where I but they refused to changed it with a new one. I couldn't argue to that because it's useless and I understood it's on PLDT's end and not them.

The worst part is, I have been calling their hotline 171 which took me ages to connect only to find out that no teleservice customer will want to assist me and asked to try again later! For days I have been trying to reach them but still nobody entertained my call. DUMUGO AT UMUSOK NA TENGA KO ALA PA DIN, IBANG KLASE TALAGA!! Now, where's the consideration to that??!

Now what am I gonna do with these cards? Been trying to email them but said there was an error. What now? Just like that and let it go? How about the money that I spent?

It's really disheartening and frustrating that the biggest telephone company in the Philippines couldn't satisfy their subscribers needs and make an action regarding a small matter such as this. What more if I'm using the DSL connection? Anyone? Read more...

My Birthday

Even if I didn’t want to, I celebrated my birthday three days ago. Last year, I imagined I would celebrate it by the Bay Walk with my family but dinner outside our lawn full of stinky pets was even great, I realized. J My mother cooked a hearty meal which my aunties and uncle loved especially the kids. Also, I received a birthday cake from my auntie Emy and I was really glad then for I haven’t had my birthday cake for the past three years. Gee, I think it was the first time I ever blew cakes after they all sing a birthday song for me an it was really heartwarming. I really love my family!

I could still remember how my birthday cake looked like three years ago, it was an “erotic penis customized cake” which my friends ordered at the mall and sure was a surprise! Yuckk though it was really exhilarating especially when my guy friend tried to lick the cake! LOL ;)

After that small party, I went out with Kitty to buy a prepaid card to email my boyfriend and to that there were four dogs growling in front of us. It was funny because after we passed by that horrifying dogs I still managed to throw some stones at them which made the dog’s owner a went out of his house mad at us. I just told Kitty "Run, run!" :) We run as fast as we could laughing all the way to the next shop and promised we will never go back there.


So, that was my birthday was all about.. heartwarming, fun and a bit of surprise!

Yum!


This is me and my birthday cake together with Kitty and her teenage 'aunties'... Kitty asked if she could have a party and a birthday cake too on her next birthday, I promised her a nice one and that will be for sure. :)

The Best Years of My Life

A few days ago, I woke up with a hangover and sore feet though all the pain that I was feeling that time was all worth it, I must say. Went to my highschool friend’s farewell party and get together with my best high school buddies after fifteen long years though sometimes we bumped on each other’s shoulder on a supermarket or work but none of that would bring us back together until that day. There was no drama when we met but excitement and pure bliss of never-ending conversation about our lives in the past, family, who our new friends were, dreams, ‘sex’ life (because only Christina was the only one successful in relationship among us), and reminisced about our high school days.

The Best Years of My Life….

When I was in high school, I have six solid 'ordinary' bestfriends which is far different from every teenage girl you will see at that time. All the girls in our highschool at that time were too occupied about school, boys, latest trends, all women thingy as I may say etc. Except us. While all the classrooms were busy with their routine schedule, my girls and I were busy playing table tennis, hide-and-seek, pretending to be sick in the school’s clinic but then you will see the five of us chatting and giggling on the clicnic's bed.

After school, we never missed dropping by at the nearest ice cream parlor or 'dunkin donuts' house, those are the two things we always were agitated at instead of boys. The funny thing was, most of us won't spend our snack money so that we could save it for the 'after classes event'.

On weekends, we still managed to get together to swim at the river or have a little picnic at home or somewhere, all the little girls' stuff and that. There's also one time when we planned to stay at Donabelle's house just to watch porn. Firstimers we all were, our eyes widely opened astonishingly watching the 'action' happening on the screen, yucking and screaming (with excitement i guess) coz we couldn't believe our eyes that sex was done that way (just so you know, at fifteen, we never had a real kiss though it's not a big deal to us coz were much too engrossed with our friendship other than boys) *big grin*

Most of those years was such a bliss... we never worry about anything except homework and pop quizzes (coz I'm really not the studious type). Prom date? Who cares?! Back then I once dreamt of becoming a hotdog-stand cook. Hehehe, yeah! I don't know I just find tossing and turning hotdogs an art and that fascinates me especially people loving it ooh great!

Time swiftly passed and we moved on with our lives. Well, I didn't make it to be a hotdog vendor something like that :) Anyway, Christina is happily married with two kids, most of us really have kids except that of with Alaika, who's recently attracted with 'gays'. Where have all these men gone anyway??! :) Among the group, only Alaika and I never got married, Alaika is a mannish type and not much of a charmer like me so it's a bit hard for her to get into a relationship eversince before. And now, we really enjoyed talking about our dream weddings, which never crossed our minds fifteen years ago, which makes Christina a bit jealous because she never planned about her wedding coz it was their parents who did all the planning. Furthermore, that is really something.

Today, I texted my friend asking him if he could find a 'lover' for my dear friend, Alaika. Something like matchmaking stuff. Well, for one, I don't want her end up with some gay whose lipstick is thicker than her or skirt skimpier than hers and screams flirtier than her (actually, she never wore skirt and never put lipstick on, mannish dear) *wink* Let's just see what happens next.



I like this post though because it brings me back to the time where I was so free from stress and commitments unlike now. I know that I'm jobless, broke and still depending on my parent, with two kids, Icouldn't keep up with my cousins and friends but this I realized lately that there really isn't much reason for me to whine because I already have what I want -- two wonderful kids, nice and nagging mother, great friends, and a nice boyfriend. I could get a job anytime I want to (just as long as I'm not choosy) and make money if I wanted to but nothing compares when you feel loved and nice friends and family around you. ;)
