Someday

Korina married at 45 years old. May pag-asa pa ako! Kids, maybe not, but when you're at that age, I think you'd be content with finding The One.

But my fave wedding vow of all time is definitely from Mr. BlobyBlo himself, Tablo, who got married yesterday:

I think you are my echo. When I first met you, I thought that it was as if all of the things I had shouted out into the world before knowing you had come back to me in your form.

Got me right here. I think we all have our desires/requirements/hopes regarding what kind of a person we would like to end up with for the rest of our life and we want nothing more than to meet that ONE person who would make all of our dreams come to life. Nasaan ang echo ko? (No, not that Echo.)

Yes, I'm in my senti/tag-lamig lovey-dovey mode. Where the hell is my kumot and unan? ;P

Mac Attack

Christmas is around the corner and as always I already know what I want for Jesus' birthday. As soon as Black Friday hits next month, rest assured that it will be mine (not like the price is going to go down by much, but a discount is a discount). Abangan what my new alaga will be!

Actually, what I really want is the new 27" iMac, but I keep telling myself since yesterday that I don't need it. Afterall, I did promise myself that I'm not replacing Papa the Powerbook until the day that I can't install the latest software to make iTunes work. *SIGH. But should anyone want to buy my love (it's for sale, don't hold back!) this holiday season, the link is here.

...Nandiyan ka na naman...Tinutukso-tukso...ang akiiiiiiiiing pusoooooooo...

Oplan Bawas

After a long hiatus of not watching Oprah, I'm back to watching the show (as long as it's not a "super serious" episode) this season. Yesterday, they had a feature on Denmark and how it has the happiest people on Earth. It totally made me want to live there to live out my ideal world. ;P

One of the contributing factors is that they don't own a lot of stuff. Inspired, I'm now wanting to get rid of most of my stuff. Well, I've been working towards that in the last year by selling the remnants of my Sanrio collection and Starbucks mugs on eBay. I also stopped buying Coach purses two months ago and haven't bought any new clothes in the last month. I'm not a gastadora by nature, but things do accumulate even when you buy infrequently. Nanghihinayang din ako kapag dinadala ko yung mga lumang gamit ko sa Goodwill at the end of every year. Pero mas naaasar ako kapag wala na akong mapaglagyan sa closet ko dahil puno na. I hate clutter!

So Oplan Bawas is in effect. Bawas gamit. Bawas kalat. Bawas gastos. Bawas sakit ng ulo. Let's see how this ummm, materializes. HeHe!

A Little Plus

I'm back for a two-week stint with the general elections for the county. While I'm still a temporary employee, I've sort of made it up the food chain after working during the primary election in August: I'm now one of the three aides in the section. Instead of being one of the 40+ people sitting in front of the computer waiting for work to be handed to him/her, I'll be one of the people running around delivering the work to the them. More strenuous work, but definitely a "promotion" if you will. No wonder I wasn't asked to be a 6am person this time around.

I hope that this will lead to a full-time position eventually. Not really sure how long "eventually" will be, but if it means that I won't have to commute into the city for work while getting paid a higher than average salary, then the wait will definitely be worth it.

For now, at least my self-confidence got a little plus sign next to it after a series of minuses during this long jobhunt. Hooray for doing my best whether the task is great or small! (And this is coming from the person who set off the fire emergency exit alarm on her first day last August. HeHe!)

Hairdid

Oh snap, Arnel Pineda finally cut his Sadako-inspired hair! Hooray! Totally an upgrade! He definitely looks more malinis and people can see more of his tiny face. Leave those long tresses to people who need to hide their ugly face, Arnel! Kudos!
