angel of the waters

I know I’m not posting all that’s been happening to me though I really want to share it all. Please forgive me for though I want to blame my lack of time and I guess it’s really my laziness that got me and I guess sometimes I really wanted to post something that’s worth reading for all but in the end it dragged and decided that it’s too late to even post it all.

Now this time, I just wanted to compose little doodles of what happened to me last year 2009.  So what’s really with my 2009?

January - I spent most of my time preparing for my upcoming trip. Prepared for the passport, Visa for China - which we failed to get one, trying to save. I also had my hair rebonded at Heaven’s Salon in Shaw, it was very cheap but very disastrous I wish I had not had my hair done though. And for the past three years, last Jan 29, 2009 I was late for two minutes for the first time for work.

February - from the 11th to the 25th, mom, dad and prince went to Dumaguete after more than two decades.

March - from the 4th to 11th was my first international trip, it was in Hong Kong with friends, Aimz, Sherlie, Lizzie and Malen. Got my Jason Statham and BOF (Boys Over Flowers) addiction.

April - got my complete, hard bound book of Twilight Saga Collection. Went to Family Day, Fun Day with the whole family.

May - ended the summer getting addicted watching the whole series of Desperate Housewife.

June - nothing special, just finished the latest Supernatural Season.

July - first fight, got heartbroken from July 2 - 5, but mended after a very, very long talk. Got excited coz it’s Harry Potter 6. Anniversary, dare I say for how long?

August - consecutive dates with Howe, 2 - Padi’s Point in Antipolo, 8 - Shopwise, Cubao, 15 - SM Marikina, GI Joe and Old Spaghetti House, started my Joongbo addiction and lost around 7 lbs because of it.

September - start of my graveyard shift and sleeping problems. Ondoy tragedy.

October - from 11th to 15th we went to Palawan with Malen, Toni, Jade, Aila, Carol, Sally, Japokx, Wilmer. And on the 24th I got a brand new cellphone, yesh!

November - after fourteen years I got to meet my old high school friends when we had our meeting for our high school reunion at Robert’s (Bato) Place in Maysan. First time for that year when we had our first QA Team Building at Caliraya, Quezon from 28th to 29th.

December - was too busy to put anything on my planner. ^_^ Ate Kayen came back from Hong Kong. Had our grand draw for our high school reunion.

Amidst all of the things that’s happening in the world. I just stated what I think deserves a highlight of what happened and mostly affected me. See how shallow I am? Hope you had a wonderful 2009 and have an even more fruitful 2010. Kung Hei Fat Choi to all!

It takes me four hours everyday to travel back and forth from home to work and I have to do it five times a week, so I spend almost twenty hours a week listening to music, or something, or to whatever my heart desires. I wish that I have MP3 players that I can use. What about getting one after receiving our profit sharing from the company? Oh! How I wish that we will get one because I really wanted to buy a new one since my old was broken. I feel so bored when I’m traveling and my mind wanders a lot during all that idle time. I wish it could cure my boredom.

If somebody asked you, what is the part of your body you would like to insure? I for once cannot answer, I guess I have to get a professional to ask the best insurance quote because I don’t like to be one of the celebrities who got their body parts insured but should have better thought of it. Not to waste effort and of course money.

Some of these cases are as follows:

1. David Lee Roth’s Sperm: $1,000,000
2. Mary Hart’s Legs: $1,000,000
3. Ben Turpin’s Crossed Eyes: $25,000 old-timey dollars
4. Merv Hughes’ Mustache: $370,000
5. Mariah Carey’s Legs: $1,000,000,000
6. Tom Jones’ Chest Hair - $7,000,000

I don’t know the whole truth of it, but I wish that there’s a bearing of doing these things if it’s true. I wish I have enough money to get any of my body parts insured.

In this world, when couples been together for a decade, they are already considered lucky and blessed. Many envies them and wanted to be like them. So I’m happy, honored and very proud to greet my parents a happy 34th anniversary!!!

Thank you for being the best parents in the world. You set a very good example for us to follow. WE LOVE YOU MA and PA!

Both of them are trying very hard to open the gift. They do it together.

So serious! hehehe

After seeing my high school best friend after our high school reunion get together, I can’t believe how much all things are coming back to me. Often those small things I have taken for granted when I was younger gives me too much delight these days. How funny is that? Hmmm. Can I cite some examples?

Autograph - a great way to know who the crush of your crush and the best way to know your crush a lot better.
Cutting classes - though I don’t do this often, but I experienced it first during high school days.
Songbook - lyrics of the songs copied in a notebook, where you can use during idle time between classes.
Bon Jovi - they’re my favorite band, so as my best friend. Their song, Never Say Goodbye is the theme song of our group, JHERCS. I love his voice, his band, his body, and of course his smile. I wonder if he had it made from one of the best NJ Cosmetic dentist.
Air Supply - it’s their era. Because of that, I memorized all of their songs.

Ahhh…what else? I can’t remember anymore. But if I’m askedif I have one regret, that is, I wish I had studied better. It felt like as if I could have done better.

“I’m your man…”

WOW! I would love to hear that coming from my Howe [the love of my life] but I first heard it from my boys, SS501. I want to share the good news! I got the most recent add-on for my SS501 collection, the SS501 Ur Man Special DVD. I bought this from YesAsia for $32.99. It’s all worth it since it has a photobook and two DVDs and take note, with English subtitles. So now, I can understand what they’re saying. LOL! Enjoy and drool!!!

So here’s the rest of the pics:

what’s inside? the DVD holder and the photobook

I so love it! I can’t wait to get my hands on their other merchandise! :)  Soon!!!!

Have I told you that I’m addicted to Joongbo Couple from the variety show, We Got Married? Their part was shown last May to December of 2008 and I only discovered them last August of 2009. That was after I’ve seen Kim Hyun Joong (the groom) from the show Boys Over Flowers but did not like him, since I cheer for Kim Bum and his love team more.

I just want to share how the couple (JoongBo) was bothered with their eye bags and that what made me what me to give them the best eye creams ever. See how cute they are!?! And how so fitting with each other…

Major Spazzing!!!!

Kim Hyun Joong worrying about his eye bags.

Hwang Bo worrying about hers.

I know that I’ve had a long hiatus for this month, but before I post my yearly review let me share first the activity that we had for the year 2010. I don’t want to sound corny but I really want to be sentimental. I love the quote, “My family is my life.” This month alone, so many things happened to us [family], but one thing is for sure, we will always support and love each other where ever we are, whatever we do.

The “Familia Saragoza”..lol…classic

Another Familia Saragoza pic

my favorite wacky shot

We should have done this pictorial a long time ago…I really love it!

They say that my horoscope for this year (Year of the Tiger) is not so good for non-water element signs, since I’m born in the year of the monkey, it will be harder for me this year. I should be careful on where I spend my ‘wealth’ and should be careful with my health. That’s sad to say since I’ve been thinking of opening a lot of opportunities this year. I’m even planning to franchise a good food stall that I really, really love or even go for bigger like taking over one of the properties in Corolla foreclosures. I’m not sure how to start this year right. Maybe all I should do is close my eyes and take the plunge and say hakuna matata.

The movie Confessions of a Shopaholic is not the book Confessions of a Shopaholic! First the movie combined the first two books into one movie. Maybe the producers thought that it would be more fitting for a Hollywood movie if that was the case, but I can say that you removed the essence of the book by doing that. I was kind of hoping to see the part two of the movie but how will they do it? Are they going to use books three and four to do that? Sighs…

Alright, I’m here to do a review about the movie not the book, so it does not matter how much I love the book, I cannot compare it with the movie. The movie on it’s own is a funny and romantic but it’s loosely based on the book, if they have titled it the Confessions of A Shopaholic in Manhattan, it would have been more fitting. Good thing Isla Fisher is one funny and beautiful actress. She’s not the Becky Bloomwood that I’ve imagined but she will do as so as her man, Luke Brandon played by Hugh Dancy.

If you want to experience to laugh and laugh at yourself for those times that you felt like you were overspending, this movie is the best for you! I grade it 3 out of 5 stars.
