the wait is the hardest

I applied to a job position in a company that I really like. They sent me an email that they would update me with my results within three days.





It has been 6 days...




The waiting part is the hardest. Its bad enough that I might be rejected. Not knowing where you really stand is harder.




Ever since graduation last year, thisis the only time that I would be posting my graduation picture.. I miss my long black shiny hair! sniff!

Ang kwento ng isang sakong butong pakwan ni paning

Isang araw, may isang sakong butong pakwan ang binili kay aling Paning. Napagalaman na ito ang pinakamasarap na butong pakwan sa buong Pilipinas. Natutulog na ang mga tao sa kabahayan... bakit hindi tayo gumawa ng maliit na butas at sumungkit ng kahit isang piraso?




Naisipan ng isang bata na lumapit at magpose muna bago isagawa ang kanyang planong gumawa ng butas sa sako.


Ang batang nanguumit ng butong pakwan ay nadaganan ng sako! Mahuli kaya siya ng kanyang nanay? Malaman kaya na ang sako ay pilit na nilalagyan ng butas? Abangan sa mga susunod na kabanata!

ang apat na binatilyong pagong

Bigla kong naalala ang dalawa kong kaibigan na nagtatalo...

E: Wala ka talagang childhood!
G: Meron kaya!
E: Wala no, di ka nga nakapanuod ng cartoons e!
G: Nakpanuod ako no!

Then napadaan kami sa isang toy store, naisipan kong subukin ang kaibigan kong si G.

A: Sige kung totoong may childhood ka, anong kulay ni Michaelangelo sa Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?

G: Madali lang yun! Siyempre GREEN!
E: Wala ka talagang childhood! Period!

Trips for food

My mom is going to pampanga today to buy butong pakwan (dried watermelon seeds). I don't know good it is but I keep on wondering because my mom is travelling for more than 2 hours just to buy them. My mom has this crazy impulsive hobby of buying food delicacies and specialties. Just last month, I found our house filled with three boxes of goodies from Biscocho Haus in Iloilo. We have biscocho, butterscotch bars, and other sweet stuff. The week after,
she came from Cebu and brought home longganisa, danggit, other dried fish, dried` mangoes, mangorind and many more. Now I am not complaining because I eat a lot of the stuff that she brings home. But whenever she comes back from her trips, she is so tired she can barely walk. Makes me wonder if all those delicacies are all worth it. Well, if I was the probably the one traveling all the time, I would have bought the same things. Truthfully, there are just so many good stuff here in the country that we have all yet to try.

Just the other day, since only me and my dad are home, he just bought me food. He ended buying me tapsilog (tapa + sinangag + itlog) from a restaurant here in Tanza named Antonino's. It was really good I probably finished it in 10 minutes. Hehehe. There goes my plan of eating slowly!

I've been meaning to post a separate entry about food but it seems I became incapacitated after seeing pictures of my favorite foods. I just can't seem to finish it. Hope I finish it someday.

start of campaign

Its campaign period once again. This time my cousin is running for vice mayor and everyone in the family is busy doing some promotions. (?) One thing I consider both as a blessing and as a curse is the way my family gives all out support in about everything a family member goes into. Its very reassuring that there would be a big group of individuals who got our back but sometimes it gets physically, emotionally and even spiritually draining. Lahat ng resources lumalabas.

My cousin is the ate in our group. She's very pretty and magaling dumiskarte. Napakagaling sa buhay. I think at age 22 she already made her 1st million. Very business-minded but also approachable. In total, she would be the best choice to become a public servant. She's quite unlucky though that her physical appearance has mistaken other people to think that she is incapable (because she looks young) and weak (because she is very pretty). What can I say? Well, she is a giving person. Minsan kuripot (hehe) but she would surprise us sometimes by treating us to dinner and movies and depositing small amounts in our bank accounts.

Well, sometimes I would be afraid that people would take advantage of her. But I think she has been preparing herself for this moment all her life. Its her time. And I sure hope that she wins.

that first kiss

What's so special about that first kiss? They say it would forever be etched in your memory. That first kiss would set the standard for future kisses. That is why when she told me she was ready for it, I agreed that it was time.
































And it didn't help that she gave me tutti frutti popsies! How can I say no???

what we do when we are sure no one is looking

Clockwise: Te Ry, Camzi, Smarky, Aimee and Teyz

I just got my DVD yearbook and realized that I submitted this picture! Sobrang nagulat ako! What was I thinking? This picture is just so.. goofy, no poise whatsoever and a big trace of the journey to drunkenessdom! hahaha! Well, in the first place, we have never been the poised family even if people think that Teyz is. Bigla ko naalala what happened during that night! Well not all for the same reasons that I don't know kung bakit ganyan ang hitsura namin, at kung sino ba ang kumukuha ng picture. I clearly remember na I saw this lifeguard chair.. the one you see in baywatch. I asked Smarky to take a picture of me while I took a run for it going up the chair.

Aimee: Kuya Mark! Kunan moko a! One Two Three... aaaaaaaaah! BLAG!

silence.

Aimee: Araaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

I never even reached step three. Di man lang ako nakaakyat. And I saw kuya mark behind me trying to hide his big laugh. Obviously he saw everything and almost dropped the camera just to conceal his laugh.

After that night, I had this theory that I have multiple personality disorder. Camzi quickly told me that she thinks I have a personality disorder. Period.

Seriously, I love this guys so much! They make me forget how lonely it gets sometimes when you are an only child.

Here's to more weird pictures in the future!

Bring back those college memories... and friends!

Yesterday, I met with my college roommates and blockmates. And since there were two sets of friends, there were also two venues and only one Aimee, I found myself travelling for about 1/3 of the time.:) But it was really fun! Especially since I get to see what we all became in a span of a little over 5 years since we entered college.

First stop: with my roomies aka pleasure seekers. Now it is a given that whenever, wherever we always have fun! Pag magkakasama kami nito lahat ng pambata at pangmatanda na kalokohan nagagawa namin. This time we met because Tera is leaving for US in 3 weeks time. We're not sure kung kelan siya ulit babalik dito. O well, being the first one in our barkada to get married, I say she is always one step ahead of us. And I'm happy for her. But I don't think I'm ready for my own little family right now anyway. And princess is back from NY with a few pics beside NBA players who I don't know but I'm quite sure are known to other NBA fanatics.



Later at night, I went from Makati to Bicutan just to meet with my blockmates in LMG. I was scared at first to go because I was the only one left unemployed. O well.. it was fun after all. All the block drama, jokes and memories were still there.. and I was glad to see all of them.

Quick Post

I feel bad because most of the blogskins that I got online are not compatible with the new blogger. Bugger. Bwisit talaga. I wanted pa naman this site not to look normal. Hehehe.

In other news, I have tons of things to do before I sleep tonight which includes:

1. Math HW
2. English Paper Conclusion'
3. Biology Homework
4. Study for Biology Lecture Test
5. Study for Biology Laboratory Test

I don't know how to whip it all up. But I sure hope my cramming abilities are still well, an ability.

Anyway, its so weird how normal my hormones are now. And currently, I am having PMS. I blame it for the fact that I easily get angry and frustrated. I answered online tests again. I don't know why I like answering them.

You've Got a Bit of a Crush

Maybe your guy friend is a crush of convenience - easy enough to happen Did you just break up with someone? Or are you more lonely than usual? If no to both, then this small crush could be the real deal. Find out if he feels the same - because he just might!

Are You Crushing on Him (And Don't Even Know It)?

People who know me may actually tell me that they already knew this. I don't know. It's just so wrong to have a crush on someone you have a perfect relationship with. And its funny that he just sent me a ym message while I'm typing this.

And finally,

You Are Jennifer Aniston

Girl next door with a free spirit. You're low key and naturally sexy. Sweet and approachable, people are attracted to your upbeat attitude. And even when life doesn't go your way, you always eventually turn things around.

Are You More Like Jennifer or Angelina?

I'm just too goody-goody to be an angelina. hihi!

So I'm back to job hunting again. I applied for a position in a company where I would be directly competing with my friend Aimee. She was too excited about it. Aimee vs. Aimee Hehehe. I hope I get the job. Sometimes it scares me a lot that I'm in such a hurry to fimnd a job mainly because there is another batch of graduates ready to compete for the jobs I'm applying for. Grr. And the fact that I had a six month hiatus may work to their advantage. O well. By april, I should be in makati already... life at home is slowly choking me.

Jobless @ 23

And since I don't know why I cannot post anything good in tabulas, I've decided to change start anew here in blogger. Its not that I don't like tabs, its just that I feel after graduation, I need to have a new environment. New place to express my thoughts, to rant about problems and to blab about my secrets. So setting that aside, here it goes...

Its the year of the pig. My year. I waited for all the the other animals to pass and finally say to myself that this is my year! Well, as of now, that is yet to be seen. Last year, the year of the dog was pretty good for me. I just hope my own year is better. :)

So I have been continuously looking for work now. Its so hard to find an honest to goodness job. There are just a lot of variables to take note of. And finally, the incessant question that keep haunting me, How much is the pay? I can honestly say that I am just simply looking for a job where I can learn a lot. A job that is career-wise fulfilling. A job that could set my career path straight. Well I'm still on the process of finding one. I just hope that come April I'm already working. Being 23 and jobless doesn't suit me well. Anxiety issues.

I had a job interview last week. Something bothered me. the way he kept asking personal questions about my family, my lovelife and other stuffs. It's unfair because I prepared for a formal business interview. Talk about over-preparing, if there is even a term. I feel so unfulfilled. I really want to just nudge my life forward a little. Just to get things started.

And so, here I am again looking and looking and still looking for that job. I just hope that job finds it way to me. Anyway, some pictures to get this blog started.
