My Simple Pleasures

My Top 10 Simple Pleasures

Getting a pedicure and manicure at least every two weeks.

A body massage with John (again, at least every two weeks).

Eating isol (or chicken pwet) from Chicken Bacolod.

An ice cold Coke.

Any good book from a book sale.

A copy of Cosmopolitan on the first day of of the month.

Whiling away my time in the mall looking for anything na I can buy (with John not complainig).

A quality and cam-whoring time spent with friends.

A text, call or email from a friend asking as to how I've been.

Any time spent with John. As long as I'm with him, even if the talk may be nonsense, the gestures may not be that sweet and the setting may not be romantic, as long as I have him beside me, everything is more than alright.

This birthday has been the worst for me.
But it's okay.
Enough of the wallowing, whining and crying.

Hell, I've got my friends and they believe in me.

At the end of the dark tunnel is a tricycle.

Ang buhay, parang gulong, minsan... nasusunog.

It's June 14th...
It's my Birthday...

and it ain't happy at all.

Another night out with two of my dorkiest friends...





















The night out won't be complete without us camwhoring...











At syempre, si Jovee, pa-cute na naman.
Take note Jovee ha, pa-cute, hindi cute!
Stop the delusion na cute ka.










And to cap the night, here's the best shot of all.
Ang pang-Oscars na kuha ni Burn!
Muntik na akong mag-lock jaw sa kakatawa.

Pic(k)s for the Week

The trip to the doctor went well.
I didn't undergo the surgery yet.
My throat is still under observation.
But just the same, they did something painful.
They scraped something off my thoat.
Para ma-prevent daw and nodules.


Enough of the gorry details.

And so we went to Boracay last week.
Though masakit throat ko, okay lang.
Enjoyed the vacation just the same.
Good thing it didn't rain.
Thanks Papa Jesus.


I'll let these pictures tell the story...






Inside the plane...










Red Coconut, where we stayed.










Having my henna tattoo.










Chi, showing off his henna tattoo.










Camwhoring under the sun...

How time really flies. It's already June. Rainy season na naman. And of course, birthday na namin ni John. Woohoo!

At this time of the year, I get senti.

As I don't have the luxury to do this all the time, I try to reminisce and evaluate my so-called life.

Am I living my life to the fullest?

So far, I know I am. Cliche' as it may seem, Life is indeed short, that's why we have to live it to the fullest. I try to accomplish all my goals. I live up my dreams. I do things that makes me happy. I try to make people happy.

Am I making my friends, lovedones and all those around me happy?

Well, to be honest, not all the time. But I try. I try to love them with all that I have in my own little way. I may sometimes have a funny way of showing it, but I try to touch their lives as much as they did mine.

Am I happy?

I guess I am. I have an understanding and supportive Family, I have a loving John, I have loyal friends and best of all, I have a very forgiving God. What else could I ask for? Though at trying times I question His will, I wouldn't have it another way.

Sus', enough of the drama...
