Thursday... Wooooo-Ooooooh!

Thursday, March 26, 2009

Okay, so the week has progressed faster than I would've expected...

So many things unfolded this week... Plans, resignations, PLANS, and well, and my cluelessness-NESS...

Gosh... It's not what you all are thinking, am not resigning... NO NO NO! Hehe... I like my job (so far) to ever leave it, but you never know... My blog is called the UNEMPLOYMENT Diaries... So in the words of my B-B-Btot, you can never can tell... Hehe... Anyways, am trying to soak up all the information I could from everyone here... Somewhat like, you know, a SPONGE! A big fat sponge with skinny jeans and "lumuluwa" na fat sa sides (or in short, a bad case of fashionably-inexcusable muffin top-PING). I do hope I get thin here...

I have sooo much to say but so little energy or will power to say it... or to be exact, to think and type about it... I'll do a-super-di-super-mega-out of this world update this weekend... or friday night, casue am thinking, I might be going home early... will probably be a bit tired to go out... anywhoo, let's see mizzzzie schwiissy...

Til next time...

Mega post promise...

A Quiet Day...

Sunday, March 22, 2009

It's Sunday everyone... Happy family day!!

So it's confirmed, my family and I are going to HK on April 3-5. Yay!! H&M and Joyce, here I come!! My parents said were going to Disneyland, sooo... ummm... I guess, I should say yay to that as well. yay (sigh).

I don't see the purpose of Disneyland. I'm 25++ and Disneyland isn't really my thing... I'd prefer to waste my day hoarding the malls... But let's see... You never know. (FYI, I don't ride rollercoasters... ahem ahem)

Anywhoo, last night, B, VGF, and I saw Taken.
It was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOD!

My god! I was really at the edge of my seat... The whole plot, the timings, the execution, the acting... It was JUST PERFECT! Liam Neeson rocked his role! (RIP to Nastasha Richardson... He must be so sad now)... I loved how he worked his skills in the movie. I especially LOVED, as in MEGA LOVED, how he found Marco!! GOODLUCK!

Taray!! If you guys could actually see me while I'm writing this... My feet's jumping around trying to remeber the scenes... God! Go watch it!! I swear... I haven't had a movie affect me this way since Crash, Million Dollar Baby, or Cinderella Man.

Check out the trailer!! Just love!!

Filling The Room

Friday, March 20, 2009

It’s been a week… Eeeerghh…

Do you guys ever feel that feeling of irrelevancy? That feeling of serving no other purpose than a room filler? Well, that’s what I’m feeling… I feel so dumb and “air-headed” amongst the people here… I’m guessing, the fact that am new and quite clueless about a lot of the processes and logistics of the industry is a major factor, but I guess also, the fact that maybe, well, I am a bit of an (and this is badly put), an “air-head”. Eerrrgh! Major eeergh….

Anyways, I’m quite sure that this is the career (advertising) that I want to pursue… And I guess, in time, I’ll learn everything… In TIME… But I do hope it happens soon… Because I feel so “hiya” to my boss, who’s working so hard and goes home like SOOOOOO LATE! Grabe… Sobrang nakakahiya talaga…

Ay naku, I’m trying to think and look for POSITIVE things today…

I SHALL smile…

Til tomorrow…

Call Me Bee...

Wednesday, March 18, 2009

Busy as a Bee ang drama ko kanina... It might sound simple to most, but my lack of actual brain activity for the past how many months made writing a contact report quite challenging... Ahahaha! Am I that stupid?!? Oh well... It's done...

You know what they say... practice makes... YOU PERFECT...

Soooo... Been so out of the "BLOG LOOP" this week and can I just say... IT SUCKS!! I left the office at 8 today and decided to just skip the gym altogether and head on over to Gb5 to look at new stuff... Some Window Retail Therapy for the soul "kuno".

Went into Marc and checked out the Mr. Marc tote... It was LOVE!!! Just pure Looooove!!! But I thought that 9000 for a canvas rectangle tote with no inside pockets was worth the price...

No no no!! But on the other hand... The drawing was just soooooooo overly over cute, and the color... Well, the color... It was GORGE!! And to make matters worse... There's only one piece left... Haaaay... Moving on... I shall decide this weekend...

They also had the Hugo shoulder/backpack bag!! This was toooo DIE FOOOR!!It was 17500... the material was the "NEW" canvas, which is somewhat like the shiny canvas that converse uses for it chucks... Anyways, this was cute... Especially now since i'm in the market for backpacks... Hmmmm....

Anywhoo, my therapy translated into frustration, and I knew for a fact, I won't... eeergh.. strike that... CAN'T leave the mall without buying something... I ended up buying cute little khaks from Zara... Something for work I guess... Seemed practical at the time... Especially since the mall was closing... Mega panic buying... Ahahaha....

After, I headed home, hoping to watch Gossip Girl 18 cause I downloaded it last night... only to find out that the download was a failure... Eeergh... Downloading it again now... Heard it was good... Hmmm... Can't wait...

Anwyhoo, I shall put a cast on my teeth now and shock my clammy hands...

Til next time...

The First Of Many Firsts

Monday, March 16, 2009

OMG! So my anxiety is defintely on an EXTREME HIGH today... Today was my first day of my new JOB! My god... My hands were clammier than usual, my throat was dry, and my words, well, they weren't coming out. It's really just a good thing that everyone here is SOOOOO friendly and accomodating... Love it...

Anywhoo, just giving you guys a little update...

Til next time...

Goodbye Somni...

Friday, March 13, 2009

It's Friday the 13th you guys... Be safe... =)

Anyways, today's my last day here at Somni... The moment I got in, Camille looked at me with a frown. I think it was a sincere sign that she was going to miss me... Awwww... Well, i'm gonna miss her too...

I'm gonna miss the whole office. I feel a bit sad in leaving. A part of me actually wants to stay, while the other wants to try new things... Anyways, I don't have much to say today, except, Happy FRIDAY the 13th you guys!! Happy Weekend!!

Wish me luck for Monday. I hate first days!! Eeeergh!!

I Can't Go!!

I wanna attend!! But I have work... Eeergh! How I miss being UNEMPLOYED AND TIMELESS (like my beauty... Just playing)... Gosh, I have to find another teacher or soap making. I missed my freakin class last week... Double eeergh!

Hunger Pains

Thursday, March 12, 2009

For the past two days, I've only been allowed to eat "white" food; food that won't stain my teeth; food that won't share it's color with the open pores of my newly whitened teeth.

Yes you guys, I had it bleached...

The whole procedure was a bit tiring. I felt a few stings during the procedure, but that was about it. The pain excruciatingly came after. Sudden THROBS came from my teeth being exposed to cold air...

I stayed quiet for a day... Hoping to keep my mouth closed to minimize the pain...

Today, it doesn't hurt as much anymore.

What does hurt is my stomach. Since yesterday, I've only been eating oatmeal, nesvita, and bananas. GOD HELP!!! Am going crazy...

And to top that off, I was reading food reviews the whole day yesterday, at Click The City and varius FOODIE blogs, and I came across one of the many simple pleasures in my life. PEKING DUCK!! Yuuuumm!! Am salavating just thinking about it...

And it doesn't help at all, that Ms. Epilepsia's review of the duck and the resto (FU by Hai Shin Lou) was so vivid and right on!!

"There was a collective gasp in the room when the duck was brought out. Its vibrant, golden skin glistened with oil and through the cracks; fragrant steam was lovingly beckoning out appetites." - Yuuuumm!! Am salavating just thinking about it...

I will definitely have duck this weekend! If not at FU, most likely at Summer Palace which is always much more convenient for my dad, who shall be paying for dinner. Hehehe.

I've actually never tried Fu. Sadly to say, I've been quite conservative when dining at Serendra. It was either, Chelsea, Abe, Mamou, or Portico. The rest I considered as reaturant clutter. Maybe it was due to a few bad dining experiences at the other resto's that made me doubt the other restos, but anywhooo... Am excited!!!

DUCK!! DUHHHHCK!! DUUUUUUHHHHH-AAAAAK!!!

Yummm!! I shall pretend to work now! Hehe!

Til tomorrow you guys... =)

An Errand Full Day

Tuesday, March 10, 2009

Today, I played hookey and decided to do all my errands...

To make sure I didn't forget a single thing, I wrote it all down...
Ended up with a full page of seemingly useless and shallow errands that am sure would raise a few eyebrows.

A few of the importants things on the list:

1. Get my medical for Saatchi.
2. Go get my teeth cleaned.
3. Pick up and drop off laundry.
4. Pick up RR's card for Mike
5. Get jeans cut.

Some of my seemingly shallow errands

1. Look for new Iphone and camera casing.
2. Find the perfect notebook for work next Monday.
3. Look for a "fun" pen. (fun being, subtly attention getting)
4. Look for colorful plastic folders or handout/xerox holders.
5. Purchase the perfect top for my 1st day of work.

Anywhoo... I didn't get to completely check everything off, but I did however manage to do most of the important things that I know I wouldn't be able to do on the weekend. Soooo APPLAUD FOR ME. =)

I did however forget to get my (64) little warts (ewwwww) removed which was suppoed to be done since Sunday... Healing usually takes 6-7 days... I start work at Saatchi in 6 days... What to do?? Gosh!

Suggestions anyone??

Raf Simmons Eastpak Collabo

Last Sunday, after attending Erina's baptism, I headed on over to Bratpack at GB5 because word has it that the Raf Simmon's Eastpak collabo finally arrived... Given my current obsession with bags, I wanted to at least see the collection, and hopefully own one...

Upon arriving at the store, the window display was the bags... They were GORGEOUS!! The one I wanted was the mesh duffel... and from the looks of it, they ran out of stock of the denim with camel/beige leather accents...

Anywhoo, given my background on previous Eastpack bags, I would've imagined the bag to cost between 6-10K at max... I thought they'd do something similiar to what CDG did with H&M (which was make the prices reasonable and affordable for the everyday man), but no... The one I wanted (Mesh Duffel) costed 22k. The backpack costed, if I remember correctly, 14500. My god... I had to pass...

And due to my sudden disappointment, I lost all will to take pictures of the bags and the window display... Eeeerghhh...

Ewww...

God... I have nothing against Karylle, but the Marie Claire cover is horrendous... She looks like a third world malnourished dancer... Not high fashion at all!! And she still looks pretty depressed... JUST EEEEEWWWW!! No love for this cover...

Yesterday still hasn't gone!

Who's Fierce??

Sasha Is!! Don't you just ELL-OO-VEEE-EE the cover?!

I'm Jealous... My Peg!!

God! How I wished my body looked like this... Eeerghhhh... This is my peg or my goal for MY body... Never hurts to dream, right??? I'm targeting April? or May?? Hmmm... 2010?? Hahaha!! Or maybe even 2011...

Oh well, PAPEL!!

Camera Applications For The Iphone

My love for the "extremely hard to text on" Iphone has extended to downloading appz on the Itunes store... I recently downloaded QuadCamera, Camera Genius, and Camera Bag. All three applications serve their purpose quite well, but could be a bit slow at times... Especially Camera Genius.

Camera Genius basically tries to maximize the capability of your camera by adding anti-blur, "touch-anywhere" click, sound-clicking... and a few more seemingly useful features which ironically, I find irrelevant... But if you really analyze the application, it isn't really as useful as you might have thought it would be...

Camera Bag on the other hand is a LOMO application that translates your picture into various formats, such as Helga (which am guessing is the same effect as the Holga camera), Fisheye, Mono, an Instant Camera, and many more... It was actually at first, quite fun and interesting to try out all the settings, but after a few days, it did get tiring... I do see a few uses for a few of the options... Better than Camera Genius, HANDS DOWN!

And lastly, my favorite out of the three, Quad Camera, which takes 4 or 8 shots consecutively to catch everything while it's moving. Really nice... I use it LIKE everyday... And the camera has a whole of set of picture quaity effects such as Dull, Vivid Color, Grayscale, etc.... The only downfall to this camera is that, since at time's the pictures are taken quite fast, you end up with a few blurry pics...

Here are a few samples... I used the 4x1 format, but they have other formats such as 2x2 or 8x1 or 4x2. I strongly recommend this to anyone who'd like to make the most out of their Iphone's Camera...

While waiting for mass to start...

On the stair master... The Controls...

Stuck in traffic... Dull Effect...

Vivid... 1 minute interval of pics...

Who Did It Better??

Summer's coming up, and BIKINI'S ARE EVERYWHERE...
Here's Angel and Anne looking like million dollar sex kittens in their billboards!

Loves it! Loves it! Loves it!!

The Fierce Shot! Winner ang stomach ni Anne! But cleavage ni Angel... I'm lovin both swimsuits!!

The pa-DEMURE shot... Loving Anne's swimsuit... They should've used a two piece for Angel here, but her fuck-me-pumps are STELLAR high...

The Bombshell Vixen shot! OMG! Their both steaming hot!! Can't decide!! Anne's swimsuit is hand-painted! WINNER!! But honestly...

I can't decide... Comments???

Here's extra shots of Angel... Couldn't find other pics of Anne in her Twinkle Ferraren for Freeway series...

The I'm a DONA walkin 'round my house like a GODDESS shot!

My favorite shot is this one... This is all over the Folded and Hung Stores... LOOOOOOVEEEEE!

Sweaty Hands???

I have had sweaty hands (and sometimes even sweaty feet) ever since I was a kid. I have been desperate to try to find some way to minimize the sweat, but nothing has worked. It has actually stopped before, but that was when I went on a very strict and limiting liquid diet... I'm guessing, in theory, all the toxins in my body was flushed out, and somehow that cleared my sweat glands... or something something...

Anyways, I came across this video on the net a few weeks ago, and out of desperaton, I will try the treatment out tonight...

Reading the reviews, I'm going into this with a positive outlook and hopeful expectations... Kepp your fingers crossed people... HOPE IT WORKS!!

Who's Your Daddy?!?

Last Sunday, I heard mass and had dinner with my parents at Clawdaddy!! I've eaten here a few times already, and can I just say, yesterday was the best dining experience I've had at any Clawdaddy/New Orleans branch to date... Just the best!!

The waiters were attentive and they gave us everything we needed without having to ask for it. The food was also quite good...

Best RIBS EVER!!

Who's your Daddy???

The complimentary corn... This was unlimited...

We got the Smoked Salmon with (correct me if I'm wrong) mango vinegarette? This was okay... Not bad, but nothing special either!

This is one of our staple orders here... Crab Maritess, which is basically crab with garlic and olive oil... Super YUM!! We got one 2KG crab. It was huge!! Perfectly cooked!!

We also got the BBQ set platter which included a slab of the YUMMIEST baby back ribs I've ever had in my life, BBQ sausages, chicken, and 3 side dishes!! This was just oh soooooo so so so so soooo GOOD!!

Our waiter Joel, who was quite attentive and knew the menu front to back, sliced the ribs tableside....

I LOOOOOVE!!!

Mommy with her Clawdaddy Bib!! They also gave us several hot towels to wipe our hands when needed... LOVED THE SERVICE!!

The trashcan in the center of the table... They also gave us a marble slab with a big ass stone to crack the crabs ol' skool style... But we did get nutcrackers as well. =)

I didn't get to take a picture of the entire restaurant cause it would be kind of rude to take pics of other people... Anyways, overall, the design of the place was signifacnt to their theme which was very "Chesapeake Bay-ish"... LOOOOOVESIT!

They had garage doors, big sardine cans, paintings... The ambiance was very fun... It's definitely a family oriented resto. =)

I would definitely comeback... Even if only for the ribs... I called the house and told them to save me the leftover ribs from yesterday... Baka the helpers might eat it...

'Til next food review. =)
