woohoo- ladies, let this be your anthem ;)

(irreplaceable- beyonce)
You must not know about me
You must not know about me
I could have another you in a minute matter fact he'll be here in a minute - baby
You must not know about me
You must not know about me
I can have another you by tomorrow
So don't you ever for a second get to thinking you're irreplaceable

So since I’m not your everything
How about I'll be nothing
Nothing at all to you baby
I wont shead a tear for you
I won't lose a wink of sleep
Cause the truth of the matter is
Replacing you is so easy

revenge of the nerds

the most exciting thing that happened to my life this week was being in the library.
that, in itself, is exciting enough because nerd that i am, i love being in one.

but what about being in a kick-ass school with a gorgeous library and being in a scene right out of a meg-ryan movie?

hyper.

and in other news...
suddenly, i'm so tired that my eyes reflect back everything as grainy.
my eyes struggle to be awake and my whole body aches.

i wish to sleep but when i wake the world hasn't stopped spinning.

something's wrong with this picture.

In Fairview...

"This is more than about money because money can only buy you food and things like that, but only beauty can feed your soul and your spirit," said Marcos, wearing a chunky blue brooch and matching earrings.

i just got my new calling card...
it should make me happy, giddy even, because i've worked hard for it.
duh- not the calling card, but to get me where i am.
it should.
but...

oh am just pms-ing, i think.

and i've been wanting to cry over the past couple of days
because of stuff (non-work)
but i stop myself

because i don't want to get puffy eyes.
it doesn't go with smokey eyes and the reflex FA-smile.

under the looking glass

if you look hard enough
you ought to find diamonds in the rough
tiny specks they may be

if you remember way back enough
you remember something to smile about
and that there were
after all
good times

current addiction

is interior decorating my new room. god, i've been going around OurHome, Regalong Pambahay and all the nooks and crannies of furniture and house-stuff stores in search for the perfect items. wish ko lang ano to find the perfect items right up in the alley of my price range. let's face it, for me to recharge, get inspired and stay sane is to be in nice, healthy and happy surroundings with my own stamp on it. i love beautiful things (not necessarily expensive) and i need to be surrounded by the things that i love- art, music, literature and clothes. am working at it to be truly a resting place for me, albeit i'm sure not a forever place. that will come, that forever place, some day. for now, this one's just perfect. and yeah, i confess, i'm a closet martha stewart, pre-scandal please.

meet my neighbors- starbucks, mr.kabab, a 7-11 (where Archie comic books are only 100pesos!), a laundry shop and a short ride away to gimmick places. best of all, no curfew. hear that, people?! i am a certified grown up now. heeh.

a huge thank you to my loverly friends who helped haul all my stuff. good god, i realized my whole life fits into one car. pizza party after!...and yummy cold beer for the after-party ;)

and of course, what is me without a photo shoot

kamusta the oily faces...

kahit pagod at pawis, si tinkerbell ay japanice as ever

philipboi, sali ka, dali!

eh gusto naming subject ang fan eh.

wa-huh? we're not in kansas anymore, toto!

laica in ruins. ha. yummee reward for a job well done!

just you guys wait 'til the AFTER pictures are posted ;)

teacher! teacher! why...

do dreams hurt?
do we need to fight?
do we fear to speak the truth?
do things have turn for the worst before they get better?
do you think things will get better?

i think it's called faith, my child. faith even as you fear that you have none.

keys me

i have four new keys.

i took on new job/title and got two keys for the new office and that fingerprint thingamajig.

i moved to a new place and i have two keys for the house.

well, who said i wasn't itching and restless for a change?
someone up there must love me, somehow.

psst...

things i've learned today:

1. nakakapagod pala maging happy ano?
because in one way or another, you
a: get scared of falling back down to earth.
b: feel you don't deserve to be and
someone's going to plug out the hole and suck it all down the drain.
c: think you're ok when you're actually not.

2. if knowing what i want and working to get it makes me a bitch, then so be it.
(from dear 'ole madge, who am quoting because that is what exactly i feel right now)

3. too much sleep is not good.

yun lang-- issues, issues, issues.
