TKA has finally started airing in ABS

the pilot episode of the tagalized version of they kiss again (it started with a kiss 2) has finally begun airing yesterday, july 29, 2008 at about 4:45 pm after the mexican novela "las tontas" in abs-cbn. amazingly, though i've watched the english subbed series a million times already, i still can't help but laugh when i saw the series dubbed in tagalog. finally, michael and jeannie are now speaking in filipino.. hihihi Ü

this series is really funny... just one of the few dramas (out of about 50 or 60 that i've watched) that kept me wanting for more... i just can't get enough of jiang zhishu (michael jiang, the lead guy portrayed by Joe Cheng) coz he's so super kawaii!!!! hihihi Ü

kidding aside, this is really one of my personal favorites. i really loved their story a lot. maybe because i'm usually enticed by romantic comedy dramas with super hard to get i-don't-care-about-you lead guys and super head over hills i-will-do-anything-for-you-martyr lead girls which in the end of course would be the opposite. on this one though it's not totally the opposite, but you'll see that jeannie's (xiang qin) efforts have been reciprocated... that made me so super KILIG! when this was still airing in taiwan, i had no way but to wait weekly for the uploaded episodes online thru overstream.net and i spent several minutes downloading the scenes. i constantly checked everyday for newly uploaded episodes and i had to saty up til noon though i have a shift later at night... i did all those but i never got tired... Ü

if you're looking for a drama where you'll burst out of laughing, ran out of tissues crying and learn a lot of lessons in life, then this is one drama i'd really recommend... it's really worth watching. you won't be disappointed... i wasn't... Ü

i just love arjoe so much! and needless to say, i've been addicted to joe cheng for almost 2years now! that's since ISWAK aired in the philippines... sorry, but i really can't help it... Ü

unforgettable movie lines (part 2)

here's the continuation of my mushy movie lines compilation...

these lines really move me... Ü

Man: "Will you love me for the rest of my life?"

Woman: "I will love you for the rest of mine." ---PHENOMENON

"I know it's a cornball thing, but love is passion, obsession, someone you can't live without. If you don't start with that, what are you going to end up with? I say fall head over heels. Find someone you love like crazy and who'll love you the same way back. And how do you find him? Forget your head and listen to your heart... Run the risk, if you get hurt, you'll come back. Because the truth is, there is no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love -- well, you haven't lived a life at all. You have to try. Because if you haven't tried, you haven't lived... Stay open. Who knows? Lightning could strike." ---MEET JOE BLACK

"The only wrong thing would be to deny what your heart truly feels." ---THE MASK OF ZORRO

"I created my very own first breakup rule: Destroy all pictures where he looks sexy and you look happy. Breakup rule No. 2: Until emotionally stabilized, enter no stores. Breakup rule No. 3: Never stop thinking about him, even for a moment. Because that's the moment he'll appear. And finally, the most important breakup rule: No matter who broke your heart or how long it takes to heal, you'll never get through it without your friends." ---Carrie, SEX AND THE CITY

"I guarantee it won't be easy. I guarantee that at one point or another one of us is going to want to leave. But I also guarantee that if I don't ask you to be mine I am going to regret it for the rest of my life because I know in my heart you are the only one for me. " ---RUNAWAY BRIDE

"The only feeling of real loss is when you love someone, more than you love yourself.." ---GOOD WILL HUNTING

"I love that you get cold when its 71 degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle in your nose when you're looking at me like i'm nuts. I love that after i spend a day with you, i can still smell your perfume on my clothes. and i love that you are the last person i want to talk to before i go to sleep at night. and it's not because i'm lonely, and it's not because it's new Year's eve. i came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible." ---WHEN HARRY MET SALLY

"Dear Catherine,

I'm sorry I haven't talked to you in so long. I feel I've been lost. No bearings, no compass. I kept crashing into things, a little crazy I guess. I've never been lost before. You were my true north. I could always steer for home when you were my home. Forgive me for being so angry when you left. I still think some mistake's been made and I'm waiting for God to take it back. But I'm doing better now. The work helps me. Most of all, you help me. You came into my dream last night with that smile of yours that always held me like a lover, rocked me like a child. All I remember from the dream is a feeling of peace. I woke up with that feeling and tried to keep it alive as long as I could. I'm writing to tell you that I'm on a journey toward that peace. And to tell you I'm sorry about so many things. I'm sorry I didn't take better care of you so that you never spent one minute being cold or scared or sick. I'm sorry I didn't try harder to find the words to tell you what I was feeling. I'm sorry I never fixed the screen door. I fixed it now. I'm sorry I ever fought with you. I'm sorry I didn't apologize more. I was too proud. I'm sorry I didn't bring you more compliments on everything you wore and every way you fixed your hair. I'm sorry I didn't hold on to you with so much strength that even God couldn't pull you away.

All my love. G." ---MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE

waaaahhh.. the ever famous message inside the bottle thrown to the wide open sea...

i'll cut this here... but i still have more... Ü

what is a mean time girl?

this article is quite long... but is surely worth reading... Ü

What is a mean time girl?

-anonymous-

She’s the one you call when you’re bored because she makes you laugh. She’s the one you talk to when you’re feeling down because she’s willing to lend an ear and be a friend. She’s not the one you call when you need a date to your company’s Christmas party, or to go dancing with on a Saturday night. She’s the one you spend time with between girlfriends, before you find "The One". You know, the one who you keep around in the meantime.

She’s not one of the guys, not a tomboy, but you don’t look at her as a "real" woman, either. She’s not bitchy enough, moody enough, or sexy enough to be seen in that light. She’s too laid-back, too easily amused by the same things your male buddies are amused by. She’s too understanding, too comfortable – she doesn’t make you feel nervous or excited the way a "real" woman does. But she’s cool, and nice, and funny, and attractive enough that when you’re lonely or horny and need intimate female companionship, she’ll do just fine. You don’t have to wine and dine her because she knows the real you already, and you don’t have any facades to keep up, no pretenses to preserve. You’re not trying to get anything of substance out of her. She’s not easy, but you know that she cares about you and is attracted to you, and that she’ll give you the intimacy you need. And you know you don’t have to explain yourself or the situation, that she’ll be able to cope with the fact that this isn’t the beginning of a relationship or that there’s any possibility that you have any real romantic feelings for her. It won’t bother her that you’ll get up in the morning, put on your pants, say goodbye, and go on a date with the woman you’ve been mooning over for weeks who finally agreed to go out with you. She’ll settle for a goodbye hug and a promise to call her and tell her how the date went. She’s just so cool . . . why can’t all women be like that?!

But deep down, if you really think about it (which you probably don’t because to you, the situation between the two of you isn’t important enough to merit any real thought), you know that it’s really not fair. You know that although she would never say it, it hurts her to know that despite all her good points and all the fun you two have, you don’t think she’s good enough to spend any real time with. Sure, it’s mostly her fault, because she doesn’t have to give in to your needs – she could play the hard-to-get bitch like the rest of them do, if she really wanted to. But you and she both know that she probably couldn’t pull it off. Maybe she’s too short, or a little overweight, or has a big birthmark on her forehead, or works at Taco Bell. Whatever the reason, somehow life has given her a lot of really great qualities but has left out the ones that men want (or think they want) in a woman. So she remains forever the funny friend, the steadfast companion, the secret lover, and you go on searching for your goddess who will somehow be everything you ever wanted in a woman.

You’ll joke to her that she should be the best man at your wedding, and she’ll laugh and make a joke about a smelly rental tux. She doesn’t captivate you with her beauty, or open doors with her smile. Mainly she blends in with the crowd. She’s safe. She doesn’t want to be the center of attention and turn the heads of everyone in the room. But she wants to turn someone’s head. She wants to be special to someone, too. We all do. She has feelings. She has a heart. In fact, she probably has a bigger and better heart than any woman you’ve ever known because she’s had a front-row seat to The Mess That Is Your Life, and she likes you anyway. She obviously sees something worthwhile and redeeming in you because although you’ve given her nothing, absolutely no reason to still be around, she is.

Anyway, yeah. I’m a Meantime Girl. Been one more times than I care to admit. I don’t know the reason, really, and who cares anyway? well, it's just me...

..

..

yeah.. i think i am too...
O-M-G! i suddenly felt the rush of EMO-blood running thru my veins...
this is bad... sigh...

Love or Bread: Ariel Lin took over Barbie Xu (update)

though i was really shocked when i heard the news before that barbie xu and joe cheng will be doing a drama together... i've actually kind of set my mind and looked forward to how this collaboration would turn out... i was really interested in seeing sanchai and zhishu together... then this news came up all of a sudden. who would have thought that after all that's been said, the role will eventually be portrayed by ariel lin? i really didn't expect that they would still be changing the casts after the announcements have been made.

but this is yet another arjoe collaboration... for the third time.. yey! Ü

I read this article in one of the threads posted by francesca @ asianfanatics forum (http://asianfanatics.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=561832)

Da S Afraid of gaining weight, Ariel Lin took over the role of a poor girl in the village

Noble posture and a high price tag, Da S has finally “Ti Dao Tei Ban” ! ( meet obstacle). The GTV idol drama Love or Bread starring Da S and Joe Cheng replaced the female leading role that cast Da S by Ariel Lin. Da S cited the reason of schedule’s conflict with her movie’s project. Another speculation is that the character of the role she would play in the Love or Bread were way to “Villagers” that needed to only wear blue and white shoes and gain weight. Da S is not allowed herself to downgrade from the proclaimed princess to the character in the drama.

GTV drama will begin shooting in August. It has costumes set up and made the posters. Da S sudden dropout gave GTV headache. It was learned that the reasons for the dropout are the character of “Zhen Shan Mei”, a poor girl who only wears a pair of 20 bucks blue-white shoes and would knee down to count money on the ground. Upon hearing director Lin ask her to gain weight, Da S painfully consider to give up the role.

Ariel Lin is not afraid of being compared

Da S’s concern on the other hand is a challenge for Ariel Lin. GTV said that Ariel Lin was the first choice to be considered for the drama and later was replaced by Da S.

It seems that everything has retuned to how it was started. Afraid of being compared with Da S? Ariel Lin said “Every person will portray the character it his/her own way.” Da S’s agent replied “ Only because of conflict with her schedule. Shan Cai is also a character of “weed“. Da S will not pick on the role la”

the weekend that was...

this weekend was just so hectic... i guess it's because i'm so used to just spending my off at home during weekends doing dvd marathons and kdrama/tdrama net surfing... this past week was entirely different...

unlike the usual routine of just going home after my friday shift (logging out at 6:00 am), i had to wait til 7:30am for etel's free movie day screening of batman : "the dark night" in eastwood. though i'm not really a big fan of batman (since i like superman and spiderman better... Ü ), i stayed and watched since this is just for free. just as i expected, i didn't like the movie that much... except for the cars showcased, most especially that lambourgini that was just smashed by the truck and the van. after watching the movie, i realized that bruce wayne a.k.a. BATMAN is a very very wealthy man who's equally immodest and so conceited... he always had his way of showing off a luxurious lifestyle through the clothes he wore, cars he rode, the helicopter that landed on his own home, the undergroud laboratory he had with very high tech built-in machines in walls, floors and ceiling that pop up in just a push of a button, etc, etc. i was almost drooling over those gadgets i saw...

after the movie, there were 2 agendas left: to visit chiqui in the hospital and to go to metrowalk for my dvd shopping.. hihihi

we ate first to decide things over. after lunch we decided to visit chiqui first at the chinese general hospital in blumentritt for she has just given birth to a healthy girl named jaimee who's really very cute and charming. after visiting chiqui, metro walk was the last stop. we arrived there at about past 4 in the afternoon and i was really tired before we even began shopping for dvds, simply because we walked a thousand miles that day.. haha :P quite exaggerated but we really did walk a lot... a lot that made my feet hurt so much! after getting all the taiwanese and korean dramas i found.. we finally decided to go home. we're all feeling sticky, feet hurting, exhausted and harassed.. haha

the day was really tiring.. travelling was so inconvenient because of the very hot humid weather that later became rainy and wet.. then later became hot again... then later became stormy.. weather is really weird nowadays.. i think she's also confused whether to bring sunshine or rain so she just gives both in a day... terrible global warming! tsk tsk tsk...

then yesterday, july 20, we finally held our team (carletz) GA in dampa, libis. at long last... after several attempts of holding it, after several typhoons have passed... we've finally been able to do it. the initially planned outing/swimming was converted to a dinner-now-TOMA-later-session. and since this was in dampa, we splurged over tons of seafood dishes... shrimp, crabs, squid and fish. there was also barbecued liempo, fruits like watermelon and mango. then there was gin, tequilla and beer... i was really bloated.. drank 3 full shots of tequilla and 3 bottles of pineapple juice throughout the night. it was fun... but i think it would have been more fun if it was at a resort and there was a swimming pool... but, there was a karaoke, so somehow it was compensated.. i think a bit... i was able to go home at about 1am. then i woke up at 11:30am today... still feeling tired... this indeed, is the weekend that was most tiring... and i have a shift later... waaaahhhh! i still wanna sleeeeeeeppppp!!!

Wu Chun Craze

Farenheit members, Wu Chun and Calvin Chen, were just here in the philippines the past weekend... but the craze just seems to get wilder, bolder and more contagious... i had actually been infected too... wink* wink*

i, suprisingly, was caught by Wu Chun's charm... i was really impressed of how kind and acommodating he was while he was here in the philippines. i just did not expect that someone as famous as him (or should i say their band farenheit) would be so humble and courteous to everyone most especially to their fans (well, that's how artists should be, but that's not what all artists would do, right?).. other artists (most of them) are just focused on their performances, appearances, promotional activities, etc... when chun and calvin visited, they really interacted well with the filipino fans... i'm so overwhelmed, i'm so speechless... he really got me there.. Ü

since then i have been checking his blog whenever i have time (you'll see a link on my links tab). remember he mentioned in THE BUZZ that he really wanted to visit the philippines? he has that in his blog too so i guess it's true. he had been convincing their company to include philippines in their tour for several times (which implies he has been declined several times as well right?) and i guess he didn't stop convincing them coz finally, he reached the philippines... one more thing, i saw this in his blog entry entitled "3 years..." posted on june 20, 2008 where he included a list of their promo tour schedule (here's the link to that blog entry/article, you can directly check it here: http://www.wretch.cc/blog/wuchun10cool/9673122). as i was saying, here's what i saw:

16 June ~ Beijing for Zespri Kiwi activity
17 June ~ Shanghai for Shanghai Film Festival
21 June ~ Taipei for Zespri Kiwi activity
12 - 14 July ~ Philippines for Romantic Princess promotion – OO, Andito na ako!!!
19 July ~ Kao Siong for Guerlain activity
26 July ~ Taipei for Guerlain activity
24 and 27 July ~ Taipei for Hotshot activity
28 and 29th July ~ Japan for Butterfly Lovers promotion
30 and 31 July ~ Korea for Romantic Princess promotion
2 Aug – Tai Chung for Guerlain activity

well, seeing this made me more astonished... it felt so nice to know that he's somehow trying to learn our language... his effort was very much appreciated! well, who wouldn't? i heard him utter several tagalog words in The Buzz, but i never thought he'd also write tagalog words in his blog. i know this are just 4 simple words, but the effort and thought of doing that is priceless... that's way too sweeeeeeet! making me love him more and more and more and more and more... Ü

new TKA time slot

at looooooooooooong last!!! after waiting for almost two months... finally... ABS began re-airing the teasers for the much awaited sequel of It Started With A Kiss (ISWAK) : They Kiss Again (TKA). they initially released teasers in May of this year saying that TKA will be aired during saturdays and sundays at 10 am but this did not push thru... i was so excited when i heard that news but i felt equally disappointed when it was postponed.

now, projected air date of the pilot episode is on July 28. however, there's no specific time mentioned as of yet. but since the only drama/series that's about to end in two weeks time is Romantic Princess which airs 4.30 pm daily, this will probably take over this slot... which is better for me actually than airing it in primetime bida since i'm in the graveyard shift, i won't be able to watch it when i'm in the office. but my most preferred time slot is the initial schedule announced before, that is airing on weekends... that would have been much better because i'm always off on weekends... :P

but this is better than nothing... though i've seen the subbed version a million times, i still can't wait to see the tagalized version, because i'm super duper sure that it would be funnier! just two more weeks and i'm gonna see my Joe Cheng as ZhiShu... oh, i mean Michael Jiang...

just take your time, i'll always wait for you.. wink*wink*

Wu Chun fever reaches the Philippines

Wu Chun and Calvin Chen of Farenheit are currently in the Philippines to personally promote their drama Romantic Princess. They guested in several kapamilya (Channel 2) shows like Entertainment Live, ASAP 08, The Buzz and the PINOY Dream Academy.

And yes, undeniably, the WU CHUN Fever has reached the Philippines (and I had been infected too.. :P). This started when Hana Kimi (Taiwan) aired in ABS CBN which stars Wu Chun as the lead guy (Bryan in the tagalized series), pursued by Ella as the lead girl who disguises as a guy (Joey in the tagalized version).

...

Now, Romantic Princess is currently airing in the same time slot, 4.30pm - 5.00pm with Wu Chun again as the lead actor (Jin in the tagalized version) and Angela Zhang (Jana in the tagalized version) as the lead actress. This series will be running for two more weeks before it ends.

...

Though I'm not a very huge fan of these guys, or should I say their band Farenheit, I must admit that I was really impressed of what I've seen. Since they attended several shows in ABS, I was able to see a lot of them... and for all those times, they consistently showed kindness and cheerfulness towards their fans, interviewers, hosts and security staff. They always smiled and even took some pictures with their fans (whom some even flew from Singapore, Malaysia and Taiwan to the Philippines just to see the guys). In addition, they both speak english so they didn't bring any interpreters and communication with them was a lot easier.

...
Farenheit is now considered as the most famous boyband in Taiwan next to F4. Well, I also remember the last time there was a lot of female fans screaming was when F4 visited the Philippines when meteor garden was aired by ABS as well. Chun and Calvin were also impressed of how warm they were welcomed here in the Philippines and they even mentioned that the fans here are a lot louder than those in other countries. They said they're definitely gonna come back for a concert... and that statement obviously drove the fans crazier. (I actually think they are better than F4 in terms of interaction with their fans. They are more accommodating and fun to be with unlike when F4 visited, they're kinda stiff and they seemed like they were just after their performance... not so interactive with the audience.) And it was really funny when Boy Abunda asked these two to say "the Buzz" for the commercial que... they really did good!

...

...

Wu Chun who has his own gym in Brunei (Fitness Zone) said almost 80% of his staff are filipinos so he had learned several filipino words way back like "masarap", "kamusta kayo", "mahal ko kayo", "mabuhay" and "salamat". He also said that he really loved eating chicken adobo (as usual, this has been the best seller for most foreigners who visit the Philippines) that they cooked for him there and he had been wanting to visit the Philippines for a long time so he's really happy that they had time now. I've also read from a blog that this 28-year old hunk singer actor had long requested their company to include the Philippines among the countries they'll visit but his first attempt was declined. I guess he never gave up trying that he succeeded in visiting the Philippines now.

(whatmore can I say? knowing this just made me love him more!!! Ü)

Farenheit Chun and Calvin arrived

Two of the members of the taiwanese boyband Farenheit, Wu Chun and Calvin Chen has arrived in the Philippines. Yes, they are the guys in the current taiwanese series aired by ABS CBN, Romantic Princess. Farenheit is believed to be the current most famous band in Taiwan next to F4.

...

I'm not really a huge fan of this guys but seeing them appear in the local TV station Ch 2 was kind of something to look forward to. I'm not that excited to see them, but I'd love to. I just wanna know how these two guys would look like now (meaning how they look like currently coz of course, the drama has been filmed a several months or maybe a year ago).

...
And honestly, when I saw them in the show Entertainment Live, i was star struck! The guys were really really cute, especially Wu Chun when he's smiling! Ü I dunno, I just didn't find him that good looking when i watched the series Hana Kimi and Romantic Princess, but seeing him in flesh was really very different... it's like an eye-opener.. haha I've known for a long time that he really has a nice body, but I didn't know that he looks really really cute too! and i'm starting to love him now... hehehe :P

...

Today, I'm declaring that I'm officially a Wu Chun fan!!! I so love him now! Ü

unforgettable movie lines (part 1)

i was just checkin' on some old files here in my pc yesterday when i saw this file that contained several unforgettable lines from famous tv shows and movies. i remember i had this since i was in college... so it's been quite a while since i last read it. and i just suddenly felt the urge of sharing them here in my blog. there's quite a lot so i will be dividing them in several parts... here's part 1... enjoy... Ü

"I hate the way you talk to me, And the way you cut your hair, I hate the way you drive my car, I hate it when you stare. I hate your big dumb combat boots, And the way you read my mind, I hate you so much it makes me sick, It even makes me rhyme. I hate the way you're always right, I hate it when you lie, I hate it when you make me laugh, Even worse when you make me cry, I hate it that you're not around, And the fact that you didn't call, But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you.. Not even close.. not even a little bit.. not even any at all.."

- Kat, 10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU

"It's funny how we set qualifications for the right person to love while at the back of our minds we know that the person we trully love will always be an exception"

---Ally McBeal --

"When you kiss someone, everything around you become hazy... and the only thing in focus is you and this person... And you realize that this person is the only person you should be kissing for the rest of your life... And for one moment, you get, this amazing gift... And you wanna laugh and you wanna cry... Cuz you feel so lucky that you've found it and so scared that it'll go away all at the same time..."

---NEVER BEEN KISSED--

"Is it possible to be just friends with someone I have these sort of non-moderate feelings for?... Or am I doomed forever to just be in love and ultimately significantly hurt?"

---Felicity

"Fate exists but it can only take you so far, Because once you're there It's up to you to make it happen."

---CAN'T HARDLY WAIT

"I would rather have had.. One breath of her hair, One kiss from her mouth, One touch of her hand, Than an eternity without it... "

---CITY OF ANGELS

"If you love someone you say it... you say it rightthen, out loud... or the moment just... passes you by.. "

---MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING

"if two people are meant for each other, it doesnt mean that they are meant for each other NOW."

--- pacey, DAWSON 'S CREEK

Lois: You know, if somebody had asked me three days ago who the one person in the world I admired most was, I'd have said you. But, without really knowing what that meant. Without understanding that the hardest thing about being you is all the things you can't do. All the cries for help that you can't answer, and how that quietly tears you apart. But it never stops you. And after living a little of that myself, I realized something...something I never thought was possible.

Clark : What?

Lois: I love you more. More than I ever have and more than I ever thought I could love anyone, and so, I wanna ask ... Will you marry me?

---LOIS AND CLARK

these would be all for now... but there's more to come... Ü

I want a guy...

this was just forwarded to me as an e-mail... so i dunno who the author is... but whoever you are, if by any chance you come across this entry in my blog, i wanna thank you for creating this beautiful article... Ü

I want a guy...

-anonymous-

..

Who would move the hair away from my EYES and then kiss me.
HOLD MY HAND in line at the mall and make all the girls jealous.
Someone who would SING to me at random moments.
Who would let me sleep on his chest.
A BOY who would get mad at someone if they called me UGLY or was mean to me.
I want someone who would call me 3 TIMES A DAY if he went away.
Someone who would let me gossip to him and would just smile and agree with everything I said.
He would throw STUFFED ANIMALS at me when I acted dumb and then KISS ME A MILLION TIMES.
Someone who would make fun of me just to make me LAUGH.
He would take me to the park and put his hands around my waist and give me big bear hugs all the time.
He would tell all his friends about me and SMILE when he did it.
And we’d MAKE OUT in the POURING RAIN.
He would never be afraid to say ‘’I LOVE YOU’’ in front of his friends, and we’d argue about silly things then make up.
I want a boy that would kiss me at midnight on NEW YEARS and COUNT STARS with me.
Who would stay home w/ me on a Friday night just to help me make dinner and watch movies together under the same blanket.
Someone who would tell me I’m BEAUTIFUL but not too often.
Who would make me laugh like NO ONE else could.
But mostly, I want someone who would be my BESTFRIEND

and would never BREAK MY HEART…

this is so mushy mushy but i love it! Ü

i have one question though, is there really such a guy???

time capsule: five years from now...

five years from now... i'm turning 30 by that time... uh-oh...

when i was a child, i always felt like i was like moving and living in a super slow world... i was so impatient that i couldn't wait to grow up... felt like everything is in "slow-mo" (meaning all the events happen in slow motion), especially during afternoons when i had to sleep (siesta) before i can go out and play, waiting always seemed like eternity... time seems to pass by so slowly...

but as i grew older, the pace eventually changed... i had this realization when i reached college. what seemed to play in "slow-mo" before, when i was in college played normally... as in not too slow, not too fast.. just the right pace...

but after i graduated, i had the most shocking realization... the pace seemed to have accelerated... a lot!!! just like what i've mentioned a million times here in my blog, right now i feel like living in a "fast track" life. this realization never fails to freak me out. feels like someone pressed the fast forward button, i'm not even noticing how days are passing me by.

in 5 years time, i'm turning 30... waaaaahhhh!!! O-M-G! the age sounds so old!!! being a child suddenly felt just like yesterday. i can't imagine myself 5 years from now. where would i be by then? what would have i become? what things have i accomplished? am i already successful? have i earned enough to have my own house and car? have i met my mr. right that time? now i'm not just freaked out... i'm becoming a bit scared... of becoming old... 5 years from now may seem a long time... but i have a very strong feeling that these 5 years will just pass by quickly... in 2013, if i still have this blog, i surely will take my time to search and read this entry. by that time, i'll have the chance to answer all the questions i have above... what does the future hold for me??? this remains a mystery that nobody knows but HIM...

so for the record, right now (2008), i am:

* chubby and cute.. haha :P * * Kdrama and TWdrama addict * * in love with joe cheng and dingdong dantes * * single and still living with parents * * customer service assoc in eTel * * thrifty/values money (as always) * * loves bsb * * loves david cook * * loves the color purple * * loves cars but doesn't have any yet * * has purchased an n70 cellphone unit and my own dual core pentium IV pc w/ a 17" lcd monitor * * have lots of friends * Ü

in 2013, i am...

cool rainy thursday

yesterday was my last shift for this week... that's because i filed for leave from thursday to friday and my offs are attached... so this is gonna be quite a long weekend for me... yey!!! Ü there was nothing special actually. besides today being my brother's bday, i really wanted a time off from the office. i'm just so tired of everything i've been doing... i wanted some rest and some peace of mind...

waaahhh i'm finally free! Ü i loved the sky when i got out of the office this morning... it's gloomy and quite dark... and the wind blowing is so cool. i was able to catch my "schoolbus" hehehe :P by the way, my schoolbus is my tl's car.. haha... because i was able to finish the escalations early, my tl offered me a ride until philcoa, just like the usual... Ü

seeing the sky so dark and gray gave me a real comfortable feeling... kind of weird huh? well actually the very reason why i love rainy days so much is because of the cool temperature... coz i won't be sweatin'... hehehe :P well for me, it just feels so uncomfortable with sweat all over the body... it's like bathing in dirt... eeeeew!

while on my way home, i've been imagining a lot of things... like how cool it'll be to chill out in my room while watchin' DVDs... or how relaxing it'll be to sleep under my blanket while the rain is gently pourin' outside my window pane... or how yummy a bowl of goto or arozcaldo would taste with this kind of weather... or how EMO it'll be listening to love songs/senti songs from a radio station or from an iPod/mp3 player... waaaahhh! time to hibernate! Ü

freakin' halfway

...

yesterday and today mark the middle of the year. 2008 is a leap year so the middle days would be july 1 and 2.

...

realizing that we're freakin' halfway 2008 reminded again me of how time flies by so quickly. and like the usual, this realization never fails to freak me out. i can't help but wonder why this is happening. i don't know if it's just me or if other people are feeling the same way... i'm slowly eaten by fear...

i feel like time is flying faster and faster as days pass, thereby making life shorter and shorter. i can't help but feel that there's a lot of time wasted on things that are not that important. i feel like there's still a lot of things that i need to do but i may be running out of time to do them all... which is kind of weird because i haven't even made a list of those "things" that i need to accomplish... but i really feel like there's a lot!

every waking day is a blessing because we were given another day to live and we should always be thankful for that. but at the same time, this implies that we're a day closer to death than we were yesterday... logical huh? sometimes i just wish i could stop the hands of time from spinning crazily... i really do... :(
