Banapple Pie and Cheesecakes

Banapple Pie and Cheesecakes

I once ignored this place due to the belief that they only serve pastries. Truth is they have a lot of mouth watering dishes that will surely satisfy everyone's craving. It was introduced by a friend. I still remember that we ordered Fettuccine Jacintha and Tuna sandwich and homemade ice tea for our drinks. And the verdict? It's a perfect ten for the taste. I am really a fan of pasta and this is one of the best in town plus the pesto bread that comes with it is also very delicious. The Tuna sandwich is perfect for those who are health conscious. It comes with potato chips and the serving is really big so it can be shared by two persons. The cakes look very sinful. One of my favorite is Myster-Reese's Wicked Pie that comes with a lot of my fave Reese's chocolate. One of their best rice meal is the barbecue ribs, serve with buttered carrots and corn. The last time I went here, I ordered Chicken Breast Parmigiano and it was also good. Imagine a breaded chicken breast top with salsa and a lot of melted mozerella cheese with buttered carrots as side dish...it was really yummy. Well, overall I can rate Banapple 4 thumbs up. The foods are all delicious and are sold at very reasonable price and the serving is big enough for two. The only downside is that the place is quite small. Maybe because the owner did not expect that a lot of people will like it. Maybe it was sort of an experiment. I was expecting a bigger place for their 2nd branch though but it was pretty much the same.I hope it gets bigger because it is always jammed pack with a lot of people.

guilty pleasure...give in!!!

my fave Myster-Reese's Wicked Pie...yummy!

Chicken Breast Parmigiano

Banapple also have yummy cookies like chocolate chips and oat meal cookies and muffins like chocolate, blueberry and a lot more. Their 1st branch is located in Katipunan Ave. and the 2nd branch which opened recently is located in Timog. Try it! Happy eating!

Memories

Memories
These tickets are the only things left from that 6 year relationship. The 1st concert that we've seen was Mariah Carey's Charm bracelet tour held in November 16, 2003. Since I am Mariah Carey's number 1 fan, we also watched Mariah's movie entitled Wisegirls and that was March 26, 2004. I wanted to get rid of every memory and moments that we had. But I can't let go of these two tickets because it was very memorable to me and if you are a fan, I'm sure you will understand where I am coming from. How I wish that I can completely erase all our memories. I wish my memory can be washed out by heavy rains. But I can't...I am not hoping for a 2nd chance nor do I wish for us to be friends. I am craving for peace of mind. I wish to have the happiness that I well deserved. This heartache is synonymous to thyphoon Ondoy. Hopes and dreams were taken in just a snap. I was left empty handed. I was almost lifeless, and though I was not literally in mud, everything was in mess. This is the biggest storm that hit me...My entire well being is still in a state of calamity...

I was looking outside through the glass window in the office at around 10:00 A.M. last Saturday morning. I've notice that the rain was pouring so hard and vehicles were not moving. When it was time to go home, I decided not to take EDSA and headed towards Ortigas Extension. I was planning to get a jeepney ride at I.P.I. going to Pelaez. When I was in Libis, I noticed the heavy traffic then a woman probably in her late 20's said that they have been stuck in that place for 2 hours now. Since we are headig the same direction, we decided to walk. At first the water is only touching my ankle, I felt it wasn't a big deal to walk. But I noticed that the flood is getting bigger and bigger. The highest level was up to my waist. It was so difficult to walk especially that the rain is pouring so hard and the current is so strong. I have no choice so I continue my journey. That was the first time that I experienced leg cramps. Super sakit mapulikat!!! I wanted to stop in the middle of the water but I can't since I can feel that the flood is getting bigger not to mention the cold rain. That was were I had my walkaton-in-the-rain-session last Saturday. That was taken in Libis, Q.C.

I was amaze with the desposition of every Filipino. Sa gitna ng baha at ng bagyo, lahat nakangiti habang naglalakad. It seems everything was normal. Alam mo yon parang ang mga tao sumasali sa extra challenge, talagang full of energy and with high spirit. Iba talaga ang pinoy. At nagawa pang i-video at magpicture sa baha, syempre pati ako nakipicture din for blogging purposes naman.

After hours of walking, I was finally in Q.C. and it felt so good to be riding in a taxi after a super stressful day. That was the first time that I had to walk in flood. I hope that would also be the last.

*ice breaker of the day-when i went home, I went to the comfort room to get a good and long shower. I was devastated when the water running through the faucet is so scanty in amount. I shouted "Ate tubiggggg!!!!". Then our helper replied back, Pau wala...BROWNOUT ang TUBIG...hay ate you made my day!!!hehe!!!nag pa-igib na lang ako ng pangligo kay ate.

Happy 27th Natal Day To Me!!!

Happy 27th Natal Day To Me!!!

Its was actually a 3 part celebration for my 27th birtday. I had my first celebration with my tita and her friend on September 15 and we had lunch at Banapple. Last September 16, I had dinner with my special someone and we watched a live band. Then on September 17, me, Sherwin and Lala went to Red Box for lunch and some singing sessions. Here are some of the pictures. Enjoy!!!

Aftermath

Well all I can say is I am still in the process of moving on. There are still times when all I want to do is cry. There were times when my eyes started welling up and tears fell down from my eyes even at public places. It's like a post traumatic disorder that distracts me every now and then. I just wanted to have an amnesia to suppress all the pain that I am still experiencing. I don't want memories of him,good or bad. So I deleted him in my social networking accounts. I clean up my room and throw everything that would remind me of him. Pictures, letters, gifts, scrap books, concert and movie tickets found their new place in the trash bin. There is no use in keeping those stuffs because everytime I see them, I feel lost and the pain is so intense that I just wanted to get away with it. It's like adding insult to the injury so instead of keeping all those things, I decided to get rid of them. Seeing there pictures in FS is *^#$%@!!~. I can't find the adjective that would best describe the pain, the bitterness and the betrayal that I felt. I was staring at my monitor, frozen for a moment. That was too much to digest. All I wanted is to see him happy even if I am not the special someone who makes him happy. But I am just human. It's not that I don't want him to be happy, it's just that I am still in the pool of loneliness. I really did my best but I guess it was not good enough to make him stay. I was left with no alternative but to move on. And I am doing all the things just as so I can feel better the soonest possible time. Pero bakit ang hirap?

Pain In Paula's Heart

Pain In Paula's Heart

Hay! Sobrang I'm really not feeling good. Minsan napapagod na ko umiyak pero parang hindi maubos yung luha sa mga mata ko. Sobrang masakit pa din. Gusto ko magalit, gusto ko magwala, gusto ko sumigaw...Lahat gagawin ko mawala lang lahat ng galit at sakit sa puso ko. Ang daling sabihin na "Life goes on" na madami pa dyan pero mahirap gawin... Mahabang panahon ang anim na taon. Sapat na panahon para mabuo lahat ng mga pangarap namin. Naaalala ko pa noong mga panahon na walang wala kaming pera, magkasama pa din kami, masayang nanganagrap at nagpapalitan ng pangakong walang iwanan ano man ang mangyari. Ayaw ko naman maging bitter pero bakit ganun dahil ba may nakita na siya itatapon na lang ako ng ganun ganun diba? Parang wala kase akong kalaban laban. Nandito ako sa Pinas umaasa na kukunin nya, umasa sa pangako nya na pag maayos na sya doon kukunin nya ko at tutuparin na namin yung mga pangarap namin. Buo ang loob ko na mangyayari lahat yon. At kahit may mga panahon na lungkot na lungkot ako, ang pangakong magkakasama kami ang bumubuhay sakin at nagpapalakas sakin. Dumating ang panahon na bihira na siya tumawag at mag text. Sabi nya busy lang. Ako si tanga naniwala naman. Nagtitipid daw para makaipon kaya di lagi makatawg. Ang pinagtataka ko naman bakit di nya sinasagot ang tawag ko? Sa text nag try din ako, sa email pati sa friendster. Pero wala bigo ako. Sumagi sa isipan ko na baka meron na siyang iba, pero mas malakas ang paniniwala ko na hindi nya ko kayang saktan. Alam kong nalulungkot sya doon pero hindi nya ko kayang lokohin at hindi nya ipagpapalit ang lahat nga mga nasimulan namin. Noong sinabi na nyang may iba na sya, hindi ko alam kung paano ito tanggapin. Inisip ko noong panahong yon na nagbibiro lang sya, pero hindi. Natapos ang usapan at pinanindigan nyang may iba na sya. Ako walang masabi kung hindi bakit at paano nya yon nagawa? Sa ngayon hindi ko inaasahan na maiintindihan ko ang mga pangyayari. Matagal pa na panahon ang bibilangin bago ako gumaling. Sana ang panahon ay makapagbigay sagot sa mga katanungang tila wala ng kasagutan. Ang panalangin sana ay makapagpatawad sa lahat ng pagkakasala. Ang tadhana sana ang makapagtuwid sa mga pagkakamali. Sana ang oras ang magpahilom sa mga pusong sugatan. Sana dumating ang araw na muli kong maririnig ang musika sa paligid. At sana ang mga mapapait na pangyayari ang magbigay daan sa pagbabago...

Shuttered Dreams

Shuttered Dreams

Aug 10, tumawag siya para sabihing meron na siyang iba...Hindi ko alam kung ano ang magiging reaction ko. Hindi ko alam kung paanong iyak ang gagawin ko. Ang alam ko lang sobrang masakit. 6 years din kami magkasama, maraming oras ang pinagsamahan, maraming pangako ang binitawan at maraming pangarap ang nais tuparin. At sa isang iglap, gumuho ang mundo ko. Hanggang ngayon hind ko alam kung paano tatanggapin at kung paano ako muling babangon. Madalas hindi ako makakain, hind makatulog at kung makatulog man, nagigising sa gitna ng gabi, lumuluha at nagtatanong "BAKIT?" Minsan hinihiling ko na sana bangungot lang ito. Sana pagsubok lang. I remember posting an article here on how to survive a break up and the funny thing is hindi ko sya magawa sa sarili ko. Masakit...I can't find the words that will describe the current situaton that I'm going through...Hindi ko hinhiling na makita pa si MR. RIGHT. Sana lang mapatawad niya ako, mapatawad ko siya at maka pag move on na ko. Hindi na importante kung sino ang may kasalanan. Sabi nga nila, "It takes two to tango" and I believe that both parties have flaws and shortcomings that made the relationship fail. Honestly I am still hoping that things will work, sana kaya pa ma save kase hind rin biro ang pnagsamahan namin...

Embracing God's Gifts

Embracing God's Gifts

Most often than not, when we are given just a simple problem, we felt that it was the end of the world. We felt that we are worthless & incapable of doing great things. The other day while I'm in the office, one of my friend was holding a book by Bo Sanchez entitled Don't Worry Be Happy. Just to kill boredom, I tried to scan the pages and wasn't really expecting that one article can really touch my heart. It was indeed very inspiring. One of the articles was about Jessica Cox, a Fil-Am who was born without arms. If you were in her place I'm sure that you'd feel helpless and maybe you can't perform activities of daily living alone. But Jessica was simply amazing. She did not allow her disability to ruin her inner self. You'll be surprise to know that she can put contact lens, she can drive, play the piano, and text using her feet. And if I remember it right she's also a black belter in taekwando Amazing right? And to top it off she was named the first pilot with no arms. When I read this I felt creepy and scared. But when I finally saw the video I was amaze, not just because she can perform all the activities with no arms at all, but more importantly I admire her faith to God and strength to overcome her fears and to do things that not even normal individuals can do. Funny how we complain of simple muscle cramps when there are people who doesn't even have legs or arms. Moral of the story is to be contented and thankful for all our blessings. We should not ask for things that we don't have but instead we should embrace things that we have. It was one of the stories that I would surely treasure and would want to tell to a lot of people so that they can feel how special and lucky they were. There maybe a lot of trials but being physically healthy is incomparable to any gem. God, I thank you for giving me all my senses. I felt really lucky that I was born without any physical defects and serious illness.

Starting A Small Business

Starting A Small Business

Hey! I'm back! I miss my blog! Sorry I've been busy lately that's why I wasn't able to update my blog. I was busy finding a new account with Convergys because my current account is ramping down. Luckily I was able to find a new account and starting August 3 I will have my new account in Ortigas. I was also busy making fashion earrings...I can't believe that I'll earn money with this accessories. It all started as a hobby and for personal use. I love chandelier earrings. So one time I went to Divi to buy materials to make my earrings. And since I can make a lot with the materials that I bought I decided to sell the earrings. And now I also have orders and some were even asking for a necklace and bracelet to match the earrings. I'm selling the earrings at 35Php and the cheapest were sold at 10Php. I'll be posting the designs here in my blog. I might also create an online shop to cater to more customers. Fellow kikay girls would surely agree when I say that accessories can make or brake an outfit. A plain t-shirt matched with a chandelier earrings, colorful belts or oversize bangles can do the trick. On the other hand you should also know when to minimize accessories because it may look exaggerated with certain outfits or if you pile necklaces or bracelets. With this business you have to inject creativity with your products because clients have different taste. With the products that I am creating I make sure that I only have limited items with the same design. I want each design to be unique. I'm looking at fashion magazines to widen my creativity. I'll give you guys update once I created my online shop.

Sunshine Through My Window

Sunshine Through My Window

I love the rain. And I really enjoy walking in the rain. I mean if I'm not bound to worked and the rain is pouring hard, then I will really enjoy the cold rain touching my skin. For the past few days it was raining cats and dogs. And yeah for a while I am enjoying it because I am able to sleep big time because it's really cold. But I hate it when I have to wake up and go to work. I felt that my bed is pulling me back to dream land. And there were heavy traffics and floods all over the Metro not to mention the burden of washing and drying our clothes. Hay! And yesterday morning when I went home and saw the sun shining I was really happy! Hehe! Finally the sun was showing up! The sun really brighthens up my day. =)

What Is H1N1?

What Is H1N1?

Adding to the burden of the worldwide recession & economic crisis is a health problem that affects the entire nation. Influenza Type A (H1N1) is now spreading very fast to different countries. A lot were already affected by the disease that all started in Mexico and there are some who's life was taken by this dreaded flu. I think its was 2 weeks ago when H1N1 spread in the Philippines. Of course everyone was paranoid but unlike SARS, H1N1 can be cured. I have an article taken from the net to further explain this disease.

*Influenza A virus subtype H1N1, also known as A(H1N1), is a subtype of influenza virus A and the most common cause of influenza (flu) in humans. Some strains of H1N1 are endemic in humans, including the strain(s) responsible for the 1918 flu pandemic which killed 50-100 million people worldwide. Less virulent H1N1 strains still exist in the wild today, worldwide, causing a small fraction of all influenza-like illness and a large fraction of all seasonal influenza. H1N1 strains caused roughly half of all flu infections in 2006. Other strains of H1N1 are endemic in pigs (swine influenza) and in birds (avian influenza).

In March, April and May 2009, thousands of laboratory-confirmed infections and a number of deaths were caused by an outbreak of a new strain of H1N1.

*Article taken from WIKIPEDIA.COM.

Early this morning, I decided to have my shot of flu vaccine. At least I have a sort of armor & I know that I will not be easily affected by flu. It's not the typical flu that we know. It can take millions of life so be very careful. So have your shot now. Remember that prevention is better than cure...Cliche but it's true.

Weekend At Puerto Galera

Weekend At Puerto Galera

Last weekend I went to Puerto Galera. It's my second time to visit this place but I was still amazed by the beauty of this island. I started traveling at around 10:30 P.M. last Friday. The bus going to Batangas pier left at around 12:20 A.M. By 3:20 A.M. I was already in Batangas pier waiting for a ferry boat going to Galera. The boat left at around 6:30 A.M. It was the first trip. In the middle of our journey, I felt the big waves of the ocean. It was really different from my first ferry boat ride. We arrived safely at the shore of Puerto exactly 8:00 A.M. The first thing I did was to find a place where I can stay. After that, I had chicken curry for my breakfast. At around 1:30 P.M. I went island hoping. I also did snorkeling. It was amazing! I never imagined that life under water is that magnificent. It's really breathtaking and a must see for everyone. The corals are full of life and hundreds of different marine creatures can be found under the sea. Imagine a life size aquarium, lovely isn't it? I even had the chance to feed the fishes. I'm not really a good swimmer and I admit that I was hesitant to jump out of the boat. But with my life vest on and the tour guide who was giving me some sort of moral support, I was convinced that I need to try this activity. When I jump into the water, there was still a part of me that was feeling weak and really afraid. But when I got to see the life under water, I didn't want to go back to the boat. I wanted to live with the fishes if only I could. It was a refreshing sight. It was so relaxing. After that we went island hoping. I had merienda around 4:30 P.M. Chicken kebab and salted eggs with tomatoes plus buko juice made it a yummy afternoon. I felt so tired after that so slept until 1:00 A.M. Then at around 2:00 A.m, I had my dinner. Pork kebab for dinner plus night life at Puerto. The next morning I decided to have henna tattoo. The design is a rosary and it's on my right foot. After that I went kayaking. It was very tiring but yeah, I did enjoy this water activity. The waves were getting stronger though so what I did was to stay near the shore. I had my last lunch in Puerto at around 2:30 P.M. Then the ferry boat started to sail going to Batangas at exactly 3:30 P.M. People got paranoid and started getting life vest as soon as they got into the ferry boat. A different scenario because before, life vest were just stored inside the boat, but now it's within our reach. Just to give you an insight why we got crazy over getting a life vest, the day we went to Puerto, a ferry boat had an accident at the middle of the ocean, I think there were 12 casualties, most of them were children. From the investigation they found out that the boat was overloaded. So there, that was the cause of our panic attack. We arrived safely at Batangas pier approximately 6:00 P.M. It was a super happy weekend for me and I felt thankful that we arrived safely.

***I will upload the photos next time...sorry I'm so busy right now...

The Real World

The Real World
I was having second thoughts of getting a contact lens because my left eye got irritated when I wore contacts 3 or 4 years ago. My friends would always asked me to get a pair of contact lens because I look better daw wihout my glasses. And finally last week I was able to buy one na. It's color gray and it's really nice! Although I'm still more comfortable with my glasses but I'm so happy that finally I don't have my glasses on. There are some outfits that I can't wear because they don't go well with my glasses. No w I can wear what I want, meaning my fashion choices are endless. I'ts nice to see the world wihout those weird looking glasses It's nice to see the real world!

Reunited

Reunited

L

It was almost a year when I had a seminar for a real estate company. Most of the people are on their 40's or 50's so yeah I was a having a hard time forming a group. Good thing that I met Vanessa. She's a nursing student and she's really a sweetheart! I wasn't able to sell any condo unit for that matter but I was able to gain a friend in her and that alone is a gem that I can keep for life. We went out last week and we have a lot of catching up to do. We're planning our gimmick to watch a live band soon. I'm keeping my fingers crossed...

Nail Art

Nail Art
Having a long, strong & pretty nails has always been my frustration. I can't seem to grow my nails that long because it always break. For the past few weeks I have been addicted to red nail polish, a color that is not really my type but yeah they look good on my nails. I also have a new addiction...nail art! Wow! I never thought that it can look good even with my small nails. I'll get a new design next week. And have you heard of Del Sol nail polish? It's a U.S. brand and the cool thing about it is that it changes color when you go outdoors. Mine is white & when you step out of the sun it turns into hot PINK. I'm so amazed. I'm trying to look for that brand but I think don't have it here in Pinas.*Sigh... Vanity strikes again...hehe!

MV Dulos

MV DULOS

I love books! When I learned that MV Dulos was here I was really happy. I went there last week. There are a lot of books mostly children books. The books are way cheaper compared to the bookstore. I really wanted to bring something home but there are a lot of people. Anyway I find Dulos amazing not just because it is the largest floating book fair but because through their books they were able to spread knowledge all over the world. I hope that they continue their mission to at least share knowledge to the little ones.

Going Gaga Over Parokya

Going Gaga Over Parokya

I really love bands!I have a passion for OPM bands & I'm so proud that there are a lot of talented Filipino musicians. Last week we went to 70's bistro to watch Parokya Ni Edgar. I'm a big fan of PNE. I love there songs & I so love Chito Miranda! It was jam packed. Parokya gained there popularity in the late 90's & I wonder how they were able to sustain the same spirit & why their fans never got tired of them. It was a super nice performance! It's like a typical inuman session, with the band members drinking & smoking while performing. I love Chito! I was sitting on the floor next to the stage. I actually wanted to have my picture taken with him. When it was my turn to have a kodak moment with him, I felt shy. I told him, "hindi na lang ako magpapapicture sa'yo kasi nahihiya ako". He was approachable & really down to earth. Maybe that's their secret, talent + good attitude=success. Acel (former vocalist of Moonstar88) also performed that night. And as expected the crowd got crazy when she sang the monster hit "Torete".

Goodbye Master Rapper

Goodbye Master Rapper

I'm not a fan of Hip hop or Rap music. It just don't suit my taste. There are really few, as in very few rap music that I listen to. One of the rappers that I like is FrancisM. That's why when I heard the news that he passed away, I was shocked & I felt really sad. Here's my fave FrancisM song with my fave local band. R.I.P. FrancisM.

Comparative Anatomy Of Beers

Comparative Anatomy Of Beers
Night life won't be complete without beer drinking session.Don't get me wrong...I'm not trying to sound like an alcoholic here. Actually I'm a bit late bloomer for this kind of thingy,having my first taste of beer at the age of 25. And yeah, alcoholic drinks can somehow release the stress and tension that we acquired from our everyday life. Here are the comparisons I made regarding the beers that I've tasted. Please take note that the ratings and comments are just base from my personal opinion so please don't quote me on this.

San Miguel Pale Pilsen
For many people,Pale Pilsen is the beer that has a perfect taste.It's not too strong & not too light. They say that older people used to love this beer.
Alcohol Content: 5%
Commercial Tag Line: "Ang beer na walang katulad"
The Beer-dict: 3 bottles



Coors
This beer is my new fave. The taste is distinct from other beers. It's not bitter but not too light either.
Alcohol Content: 4.1% (Coors light)
Commercial Tag Line: ( Sorry, I can't find any)
The Beer-dict: 4 bottles



Colt 45

Colt 45 is a strong beer although the taste is not as bitter as compared with Red Horse.
Alcohol Content: 7.2%
Commercial Tag Line: "Todo Lakas"
The Beer-dict: 4 bottles





San Miguel Lights
As the name implies,this beer is super light. So light that you can drink it straight from the bottle unlike most beers wherein you will need a glass with ice on it. You will need to consume more bottles before you get the feeling of being tipsy or drunk.
Alcohol Content: 5%
Commercial Tagline: "Mahaba habang inuman"
The Beer-dict: 2 1/2 bottles





Redhorse

This is my absolute fave.If you're used to drinking light beers,then this might taste too bitter for you. But since I love bitter taste,this beer suits my tastebuds oh so well.

AlcoholContent: 7%
Commercial Tagline: "Ito ang tama"
The Beer-dict: 5 bottles

What's Hot & What's Not For 2009

What's Hot & What's Not For 2009

DALLAS, Jan 1, 2009 / FW/ — It’s time to make the forecast for 2009 and Amsterdam-based Klaus van den Berg released his Hot & Not Trend List for 2009. So, what will be “in” and “so last season” this year?

“In good times and in bad, new trends are always a hot conversation piece. Next year the coolest charts will be the financial listings and economic overviews,” comments Van Den Berg

“Because people will act more aware, critical and cautious in all aspects of their consumer lives, trends will be cooled down accordingly. Next year’s trends will be less in your face and more ‘tongue-in-cheek’, if not to say ‘tongue-in-chic’, than last year’s. Forget glamour. In 2009 humor will be the best rumor around the trend,” he added.

HOT 2009	NOT 2009
Kate Ryan	Eurovision Song Contest
Touch	Scroll
Big bags	Back packs
Sharp silhouettes	Mix & Match
Back-to-the-Basic Life	Accessory Life
Nigella Lawson	Desperate housewives
Bargain hunters	Personal shoppers
Toning down	Showing off
Salads	Appetizers & desserts
Jokes	Critique
Grey hair	Coupe soleil
Mono-tasking	Multi-tasking
Grace Jones	Studio 54 revivals

Mark Your Milestone

Mark Your Milestone

Happy birthday, hot chick! As you blow out your candles this year, take a moment to think about where you are in your life & where you want to be. Remember: the world is yours for taking.

AGE: 20-25
Learn To The Max.
Abby Wilner & Catherine Stocker, authors of The Quarterlifer's Companion, confirm that "the twenties are fun, yes, but people need to realize it is okay to experience anxiety & even depression." Acknowledge that your frivolous college lifestyle might not exactly work for you anymore, but know that you're also at the best time to learn how to deal with the realities of life. Make the most of your tender twenties.

AGE: 26-30
Know The Plan.
The Philippine census marks 27 as today's average marrying age. And, some early entrepreneur have breached the millionaire mark by 28. So, take a step back & clarify your plans. If you're still slugging it out with Mr. Right Now, start thinking about the one who you'd want to spend the rest of your life with. If you're climbing up the career ladder, determine how far you'd like to make it. Dream big, but learn how to focus.

AGE: 30-35
Figure Out The Heart.
You've reached the big 3-0. Life is starting to slow down from your 20s, and somehow, tequila has lost its magical appeal. And, the pace seems steadier than your pressure-filed late 20s. In the early 30s, take time to strengthen your support network & reconnect. Since you're craving for purpose, indulging in your spiritual side & spending time with people who matter most can do you wonders. Move forward with a cause.

AGE: 36 -ABOVE
Embrace Your Experiences.
Your years of experience have left you wiser, and you should be able to have enough chutzpah to strike opportunities while the iron is hot. Does a business venture sound profitable? Go for it while you can. Is a late-but-perfect Prince Charming showing potential? Go or him if your gut says he's right for you. You now have the leverage to be in control of not only your finances, but also your relationships. Stride confidently; wisdom & experience are on your side.

New Year, New Me

New Year, New Me

Happy new year everyone! I wasn't able to welcome 2009 with a bang because I was asleep while everyone was jumping & screaming as they say goodbye to 2008 and as they welcome 2009. Yeah too lazy to open the year. For 2009 of course I wish that it would be a better year. I wish to have more friends, real friends I mean. I also want to engage in a new hobby. I so wanted to learn how to cook so maybe that will be something that might keep me busy. I also hope that I will excel in whatever industry I am into right now & of course to know what career to really pursue. Hoping that 2009 would give me new hope, new life & of course new "ME". Happy new year too all my blog-kada!

Shih Tzu

Shih Tzu

I had my first pet dog when I was in elementary. He was named Bugs because Bugs Bunny was my favorite cartoon character then. When my dog died, I promised to myself not to have a pet dog again. Then came Sebastian which is a lobster (yes I know a lobster is too weird to be a pet but yeah! he was my pet for a while. When I lost Sebastian, I never had any pet again.

There are a lot of cute puppies but I never really have the interest to get a new pet. But when I saw these cuties, I wanted to take them home. Everytime I passed by Tiendesitas pet village, I always looked for a Shih Tzu. And hopefully someday I can afford to have even just one super cute Shih Tzu. They are very expensive not to mention their food and grooming are also pricey. But how can you say no to these adorable babies?

No Work, No Pay

No Work, No Pay
I'm suppose to answer calls right this very moment. But hey, how can I do that if I don't have my voice? Too bad! This is the first time that it happened to me. I'm really bored now. Plus I'm thinking of the money that I was supposed to get for this day. I really feel bad not being able to go to work & of course having that deduction on my pay slip.Grrrrrrrrrr!

Nail Art

Nail Art
Having a long, strong & pretty nails has always been my frustration. I can't seem to grow my nails that long because it always break. For the past few weeks I have been addicted to red nail polish, a color that is not really my type but yeah they look good on my nails. I also have a new addiction...nail art! Wow! I never thought that it can look good even with my small nails. I'll get a new design next week. Vanity strikes again...hehe!

I'm super in love with Chuck Taylor. It's my collection (I have 24 pairs & still counting). I'm thinking of personalizing one of my Chucks because it got stained. Look at the personalized Chucks and tell me if I should have it customized or not. These designs are hand painted.

Places I Wanted To Visit

Places I wanted To Visit
I love to travel! And if money is not the problem here are the places that I wanted to see at least before I die.

First is Paris (who doesn't want to visit Paris?). I really wanted to see the Eiffel tower and have my picture taken there. Whenever I think of a romantic place, Paris is always on top of my list.It's super romantic especially if you are travelling with your special someone. Awww!

I have always been amazed with the pyramids of Egypt. I felt that this country is so blessed to have their pyramids preserved.

I also want to visit Cambodia to see Ankhor Wat. I know that this country was not blessed with a good economy but they are indeed rich when it comes to culture. A week or two would be enough for me to have a taste of their culture.

I also wish to visit Tokyo, Japan. Aside from the hi-tech gadgets that they have, I also want to experience the japanese culture. I want to ride in a bullet train, learn the art of
of folding papers (Origami), to try dressing up in Kimono (Japan's national costume), and to try authentic japanese foods like maki, tempura, miso soup and green tea.

I also love to see the busy streets of New York. I wish I can go shopping here. Of course I'll have my picture taken with statue of Liberty on my back draft.

On My Own

ON MY OWN

Living on my own has a lot of perks but it also has its down side. Paying for the rent & spending for my meals made me feel all grown up.I felt that I am now in total control of my life. I am happy that I was able to survive on my own. But I really miss my brother Peter. I'm used to living alone but there were times when I wished that I'm sharing the wonderful things I had with my brother.

I don't know where my decision will lead me but I know that in the end, it will make me tougher & smarter. For now I will have to trust Him that something good will soon come to me.

The Best Kaldereta

THE BEST KALDERETA

During our family reunion, I'm always excited to go to my grandparents' house. I'm sure that most of my relatives will agree with me when I say that "Lolo's kaldereta" is the best! Super sarap ng mga luto ni lolo specially yung kaldereta at kahit sauce lang pwede ng ulamin. Lolo's kaldereta will always remind me with the good all days I had with my relatives. And it will always remind me of the time when Lolo was still strong. Sobrang maalaga siya sa mga bisita. When you taste his dishes, you'll know that the one who prepared the meal really has passion for cooking. Hay! Na miss ko yung KALDERETA ni lolo...

INGREDIENTS OF TRUE HAPPINESS


Life is too short.
Grudges are a waste of perfect happiness.

Laugh when we can,
Apologize when you should
and let go of what you can't change.

Love deeply & forgive quickly.
Take chances,
Give everything
and have no regrets.

Life is too short to be unhappy.
You have to take the good with the bad

Love what you got
and always remember what you had.

But never regret.

People change
and things go wrong.
But always remember,
LIFE just goes on!!!

MIXED EMOTIONS

MIXED EMOTIONS

I'm really happy with my life now. Don't get me wrong, I still wasn't able to get all the things that I wanted but I'm lucky because along the way, I've met new friends. I'm getting used to my work as a CSR, though it has nothing to do with my real profession. I'm enjoying my life now in a call center. I'm happy that I have a lot of new friends & I'm grateful that I was able to get in touch with my old peeps.

Although there have been a lot of trials in my life now. Right now I am living with a friend, let me just clarify that the friend I'm referring to is a girl huh! Haha! I just don't want you readers to think that I've gone crazy. There have been some misunderstanding between me & my eldest brother that forced me to move out. It's hard to be away from home but I wanted to prove something to myself & also to all those who have been underestimating me. In time I'll be able to do that. I'm very positive that things will be better for me.

Words Of Wisdom

WORDS OF WISDOM

Last July 30, I went to Makati to apply for a job. When I passed my resume, a man, probably in his 40's told me that there's no vacancy for the position that I am applying for. So I said thank you and was on my way out. But guess what, the man gave me lectures. Yes lectures about life. This post maybe long but please read it because you'll learn a lot.

Hindi ko malaman kung propeta siya, baka sugo ng langit, o di kaya naman isang ordinaryong tao lang din na hinasa na at pinatatag ng panahon. Ito ang mga sinabi niya sa akin:

*Mayroon 3 Stages Ang Buhay

First stage: 0-25 years old=routine
Ito daw ang stage na kung saan ang tao ay gigising, kakain, maglalaro, papasok sa paaralan, uuwi, matutulog. Ganyan daw ang 1st 25 years ng life natin.

Second stage: 26-59 years old=realization
Ito naman daw ang time na kung saan naiisip natin na hindi na tayo mga bata. Ito ang panahon na naghahanap na tayo ng trabaho at gumagawa ng pangalan sa kung ano mang field na gusto natin. Sabi pa niya bata pa daw ako. Magtyaga lang daw ako at makakahanp ako ng trabaho. At siguraduhin ko daw na pagdating ko ng 30 years old, dapat daw ay trabaho na ang humahabol sa akin. Dagdag pa niya pag 40 years old ka na wala ng tatanggap sa'yo, maliban na lang kung sobrang galing mo. Kaya ngayon ang panahon para patunayan sa mundo na karapat dapat ka sa trabaho na pinapasukan mo.

Third stage: 60 years old onwards=bonus years
Ito daw ang stage na kung saan masaya mong pinapanood at inaalagaan ang mga apo mo. Kung nakapag ipon ka, malaya mong magagawa ang gusto mo at mapupuntahan ang mga lugar na gusto mong marating. Kung wala kang naipon, nagiging pabigat ka sa pamilya mo. At dahil matanda ka na, wala ka ng magawa kung hindi magsisis kung bakit di ka nagsikap noong malakas ka pa.

*2 Dahilan Kung Bakit Nagbibigay Ng Pagsubok Ang Diyos:

1. To strengthen us
Marami sa atin ang mahina ngunit pagkatapos malampasan ang mga unos sa buhay ay nagiging matatag.

2. To destroy us
Meron naman sa atin ang masyado na daw matatag at napakataas na ng tingin sa sarili nila. Binibigyan sila ng pagsubok ng Diyos para ipaalam sa kanila na hindi sila ang pinakamakapangyarihan sa mundo at ang pride ay walang maidudulot na maganda sa atin. Dapat din tayong magpakumbaba kaya naman binibigyan tayo ng mga pagsubok gaano man tayo katatag.

*2 Types Of Creatures On Earth:

1. creature of circumstance
Ito yung mga tao na wala ng gagawin sa buhay nila sa pag aakalang wala na silang mapapala kahit pa sila magsikap. Katwiran nila "mahirap kaming pinanganak at mamatay kami na mahirap pa din"

2. creator of circumstance
Ito naman yung mga taong alam gamitin ang mga talento o kung ano mang available resources sa paligid nila. Inihalimbawa niya si Manny Pacquioa na ipinanganak na sobrang hirap. Ngunit ginamit niya ang talento niya ngayon ay isa ng kilalang boxer at isa na ring napakayaman na tao.

*Sinabi din niya na "Good decisions come from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement".

*Ang oras daw ay isa sa mga napakahalagang aspeto ng buhay. If there is no time there will be no friendship or relationship. Totoo nga ito kasi diba madaming relasyon ang nasisira dahil sa wala silang oras sa isa't isa. Ganun din daw tayo dapat sa Diyos. Dapat maglaan din tayo ng oras para kausapin siya para naman tumibay ang relasyon natin saKanya.

*Ang mga babae daw ngayon ay mas matatalino. Dati daw kasi natututo tayo sa mali natin. Pero ngayon ang mga babae natututo sa mali ng iba. Halimbawa daw may kakilala tayo na nabuntis ng wala sa tamang oras, syempre hindi natin yun hahayaan na mangyari sa atin dahil nga natuto na tayo sa experience ng iba.

Umuwi akong nagiisip. Sino ba talaga siya? Propete, sugo ng langit, wise man? Pero hindi na mahalaga kung sino man siya. Ang importante may natutunan ako sa halos dalawang oras naming pag-uusap. Umuwi akong wala pa ring trabaho ngunit masayang masaya sa mga aral na napulot ko.

RANDOM THOUGHTS

Random Thoughts
I haven't written for such a long time. A lot has happened in my life and I'm really surprised that I haven't put in into writing. This blog is created for me to share my stories, good or bad, happy or sad. I'm feeling a lot of emotions his past few days. The world has not been on my side. I am struggling to find a work, to find the place wanted to go. I feel desperate to create a name of my own & to be appreciated by people in whatever field I choose to take.

Ang Taong Mahal Mo O Ang Taong Nagmamahal Sa'yo?

ANG TAONG MAHAL MO O ANG TAONG NAGMAMAHAL SA'YO?

Masarap magmahal diba? Lalo na kung yung mahal mo ay mahal ka din. Pero paano kung yung mahal mo ay may mahal na iba o kaya naman ay may nagmamahal sa'yo pero iba naman ang mahal mo? Parang ang gulo na ano? Masaya ako pag nakakakita ako ng mga taong nagmamahalan. Yung pag tinignan mo sila sa mata kitang kita mo na in love na in love sila sa isa't isa. Sana nga lahat ng kwento ay ganun. Pero ang masaklap na katotohanan, marami sa atin ang naging bihag na ng sakit ng pag-ibig. Marami sa atin (aminin man natin o hindi) ang nagdurusa ng dahil sa sila ay nagmamahal.

Bakit kaya pag mahal mo ang isang tao kaya mong gawin ang lahat para sa kanya? Yung tipong wala kang hinihinging kapalit basta maipakita mo lang sa kanya kung gaano mo siya kamahal. Para bang wala kang kapaguran gumawa ng mga bagay na ikakatuwa nya. Pakiramdam mo lahat kaya mong gawin para sa kanya. At mas madalas kesa hindi, nasasaktan ka. Kaya mo ba talaga siyang mahalin kahit alam mo na hindi ikaw ang tinitibok ng puso niya? Hanggang kailan ka ba aasa na kaya ka rin nyang mahalin? Hanggang kailan mo masasabi na mahal mo siya kung hindi ka naman niya kayang mahalin? Natututunan ba talaga ang pag mamahal?

Bilib din naman ako sa iba. Naranasan mo naman na siguro yung meron naman isang tao na sobrang mahal ka. Kung kaya nga nyang sungkitin ang mga bituin, mauubos na ang bituin sa kalangitan dahil lahat yan ibibigay nya sa'yo. Lahat ng sakripisyo ay gagawin nya. Wala siyang hindi ibibigay. Kaya nyang mag hintay gaano man ito katagal at kahit wala pa nga itong kasiguruhan. Pero bakit di mo siya magawang mahalin? Hindi ba talaga pwedeng turuan ang puso?

Ano nga ba talaga ang mas mahalaga yung taong mahal mo o yung taong nagmamahal sa'yo? Ikaw sino ba ang pipiliin mo?

And The Girlfriend Speaks

AND THE GIRLFRIEND SPEAKS

Why is it hard to let go? Letting go of the person you love is really difficult. But if you really love each other why do you have to let go? If there's no third party involve in the relationship and everything is running smoothly and neither of you have fallen out of love, then the only reason that I can think of why you have to let go is that YOU ARE NOT GROWING TOGETHER. When you are in a relationship, you both go through the process of learning new things, discovering your strengths and weaknesses, overcoming your insecurities. To cut it short you two should grow together. When I say that you are growing together, I don't mean that you have to go through the same direction or perspective in life. You are both growing individually. Each one has his or her identity. Nag grow kayo ng sabay, pero bawat isa has to grow on his/her own. One can exist without the other. Alam mo yung feeling na pag couple kayo at nakita nyo ang common friends nyo imbes na kumustahin ka ang sasabihin nila "Uy kumusta na si (insert name of BF/GF here)? "Nasaan si (insert name of BF/GF here)?" Badtrip diba! Parang nagiging spoon and fork kayo, coffee and creamer, or bread and butter. Yung parang hindi functional or hindi kumpleto pag wala yung isa. When you feel that there's no room for you to grow, that's the time that you wanted to break free. Why? Because you wanted to regain the composure that you had when you were still single. You wanted to have your old self. Yung ikaw talaga. Yung hindi nagtatago sa anino nya. Yung hindi nabubuhay ng para lang sa kanya. Yung hindi ka nangangarap ng para sa kanya or para sa inyong dalawa, yung meron ka pa ding pangarap na para sa'yo talaga. At higit sa lahat yung ikaw na gusto mong maging at hindi yung ikaw na gusto nya, at lalong hindi ang ikaw na hinulma nya para maging close sa ideal person nya, pero napakalayo naman sa totoong ikaw.

I'm Turning 26 & I Am Still Single

I'M TURNING 26 & I AM STILL SINGLE

I am turning 26 this September and I am still single. When I say single I am pertaining to a non-married life. I am in a relationship of five years but I don't know why I haven't even thought of getting married yet. Lately I have been invited to weddings of my friends who's age more or less are the same with me. I've been hearing news that some of my school mates got married. I've seen them in friendster wearing their wedding gown. I asked myself, "Nagmamadali ba sila?" or "Ako yung nahuhuli na?"I really don't feel pressured to get married although by this point in time marriage should have crossed my mind. When I was in early twenties, I told myself that I wanted to have my first baby at the age of 24, not necessarily that I have to be married. Honestly I can see myself with kids but not married.

I don't have anything against marriage. But marriage is a big responsibility. Argue with me but getting married is not only about fabulous wedding, the perfect gown or the perfect wedding shoes. Marriage is a lifetime commitment. At my age, I don't think I am responsible enough to open this new chapter in my life. I still want to enjoy my single hood. I don't know when I will say "I Do". Most probably when I find the reason to get married, when the time is right and when "Mr. Right" sweeps me off my feet. Soon I'll get there but I am not in a hurry. Maybe 5-6 years more of single life. I love being single and I want to enjoy every moment of it!

Hello And Goodbye

HELLO AND GOODBYE

When do you say hello & when do you say goodbye? I have always been in a relationship and there have been a lot of hellos & goodbyes that I've been through. Being in a relationship is nice specially when the relationship is new. It's the time when both of you are at their best. You give your 100% in everything you do. You feel loved, you feel important & you feel appreciated by your partner. I have a lot of failed relationships. When you are in that situation when everything is falling apart, you couldn't think of the reason why the relationship has to go through that test. Letting go of the one you love would always be the last option. You'll do everything just to make things work. You can be stupid and put yourself in the worst scenario. You can be blind and not see all the things that's happening. You can be deaf and not hear anything. You can be mute and not utter a single word. Why? Because saying goodbye is really difficult. But put this in mind. Goodbye is not the end of everything. It is actually the start of something beautiful. It would really be difficult to say goodbye to someone you love. But there would always be a reason why you have to part ways. You cannot find that reason why you are still feeling hurt. When your emotions are stable and everything about you is normal, that's the only time that you understand why it happened. Don't be afraid to say goodbye. If you can't say goodbye to your past, how can you say hello to your present?

Bakit Naiinlove Ang Mga Babae Sa Mga Playboy?

BAKIT NAIINLOVE ANG MGA BABAE SA MGA PLAYBOY?

Ang mga babae hindi yan bulag, lalong hindi manhid o tanga. Malakas ang pakiramdam naming mga babae at daig pa namin ang pinkamagaling na manghuhula kung hulaan rin lang kung sino ba talaga ang PLAYBOY sa mga lalake na ito. Ang mga playboy natural napakaraming GIRLS sa buhay nila. Kung ilan kami o pang ilan kami sa buhay nila hindi na mahalaga. Eh bakit nga ba nagkakagusto ang mga babae sa playboy?Ito ang mga reasons.

*NOTE: ang mga reasons na ito ay charged from experienced. I'm speaking for myself. Wala akong ibang naging basis kung hindi ang sarili kong mga paniniwala at opinion so please DON'T QUOTE me on this...

1. masarap magmahal ang playboy
-Bukod sa mabulaklak ang dila ng mga playboy, todo din ang effort nyan para lang mapasagot ka. Kung may Visa papunta sa buwan sigurado dadalhin ka nya doon. At kung kayang bilhin ang mga bituin, malamang naubos na ang mga tala sa kalangitan dahil lahat yan ay ibibigay nila sau *aww (sweetness!)

2.iba ang yabang factor ng mga playboy
-Likas na siguro sa playboy ang ma-angas. Ewan ko ba pero iba ang dating sakin ng mga guys na maangas. . Parang may kakaiba sa kanila, parang sobrang challenging ang personality. Just imagine ang pinakamaangas sa campus sinusuyo ka, iba ang dating! Kaya kung ma-angas ang look mo boy pero gagawin mo lahat para mapasagot ang isang girl, YOU'RE THE MAN!!!

3. masarap makitang magbago ang playboy para sayo
-Yung tipong sasabihin nya sa'yo na "alam mo dati gago ako pero nung nakilala kita nakita ko na ang dahilan para magbago", o kaya naman "alam mo ikaw lang nakapagpatino sakin" *aww (sweetness strikes again!)

Bokabularyo Ng Mga Bakla

BOKABULARYO NG MGA BAKLA

In my previous post, I used a new word "nag-iinaso". And just to satisfy the curiosity of the readers, I'm going to write the meaning of that word. Ito ay bokabularyo ng mga bakla at hindi nyo po ito mahahanap sa dictionary.

Nag iinaso- nag iinarte or nag iinaswang (baklang bakla ang salitang ito!)

Ang Teleserye Ng Totoong Buhay

ANG TELESERYE NG TOTOONG BUHAY

I have a boy bud who's super head over heals with this girl. For the purpose of protecting their privacy, I'd rather not reveal their names in my post. As in hindi ko pa kilala ang boy bud na ito, naririnig ko na ang story nila. And when a common friend introduced me to him nasabi ko na lang, "Siya pala yung in love na in love sa girl na yon". When I first met him, lasing pa siya noon. That night we went to Tagaytay together with our friends. At kahit sobrang lasing si boy bud talaga namang si girl pa rin ang naiisip niya. I remember it was really cold in Tagaytay that night and nag mo-moist na yung window ng mga kotse, At si boy bud, lahat ng pwedeng masulatan ng name ng girl na yun, sinulatan niya talaga. Kaloka diba. Lasing or hindi lasing yung girl talaga ang nasa isip niya. When I went to Dubai, lagi ko sila kinukumusta ng girl. Hindi pa din daw sila. And after more than a year, ganun pa din sila. Talagang pursigido si boy bud! Hay! I just wish na maging okay na ang lahat. I don't want to sound bias but my boy bud is really nice and I wish I can say it to the girl that she's lucky talaga. Nakakaloka talaga ang story nila. May mga moments na sobrang bad trip na si boy bud at habang umiinom kami, si gurlaloo pa din ang bukang bibig niya. Naisip ko kahit tatlong truck na red horse ang maubos namin talagang hindi na mawawala sa puso at isip niya ang girl na yon. Although hindi naman siya talaga umiiyak but I can tell that deep inside talagang na hu-hurt siya. Lahat talaga gagawin ni boy bud para sa girl. At yung mga moments na feeling nga nya hindi na talaga magiging sila, lahat na ata ng simbahan naikot nya para mag novena. And out of curiosity, one time tinanong ko siya, ano ba talaga ang nagustuhan mo sa girl na yon? Sumagot si boy bud "Hindi ko nga din alam eh". Napaisip ako. Mahal nga talaga nya yung girl kase he can't even think of the reason why he fell for that girl, walang reason, na feel lang niya. awww! And love knows no reason. I have to admit minsan naiinis na din ako sa girl eh, kase kung ayaw niya dapat sabihin niya diba. Kase habang nag bibigay siya ng motibo, symepre si boy bud continue naman sa panliligaw. Minsan gusto kong sabihin sa girl na tigilan na nya ang pag-iinaso (pag-iinarte). Yes or no lang, wag na yung ewan, siguro, or baka na sagot. Ang labo ng mundo diba, magulo kaya masyado. Pero ganun eh, wala naman tayong magagawa. Tol ang love story niyo, daig pa ang Pinoy Big Brother. Ang love story niyo ang teleserye ng totoong buhay. And tol, fan na fan ako ng love story ninyo! Goodluck best boy bud!

Platonic Relationship

PLATONIC RELATIONSHIP

I'm sure that you guys have encountered the term platonic love. It is the term used by many to describe a relationship that exists between two persons of the opposite sex which means love that exist between friends. As in mag friends lang talaga, no romantic love involve, whatsoever. I've know some friends who claimed that the love that exist between the two of them is purely platonic. But is it really possible that two persons of the opposite sex could be that close and not end up liking or loving each other as a couple? I was amazed! At nagtataka talaga ako everytime na nakakakita ako ng mga tao na nagsasabing "friends lang kami" but they are super sweet. Friends lang sila pero bakit mas madalas pa nila kasama ang friend nila as compare sa BF or GF nila diba? Hay! Nakakaloka! Parang more than friends pero less than lovers ang drama nila. Okay, let's assume that they are really just friends, and each one has his/her special someone. But is it not possible to fall for your friend kasi nga di ba you are super close. At kahit may special someone kayo parang it's hard not to fall for your friend lalo na kung kayo yung laging magkasama. Ano kaya ang chances that you will not fall for your friend and hanggang kailan nyo masasabi na mag friends lang kayo?
