Random Outbursts

I learned how to TANGO last night!!! Woohooo!!! After years of getting by on swing, chacha and boogie during events involving ballroom dancing, I FINALLY learned how to do the tango!!! The DI who taught me was great!

Up next: Mambo and samba (I still don't know the difference between these two, though, so GOOD LUCK!!!)

--------------------------

The cool girl never gets the guy.... How sad is that?!

My guy friends keep telling me that I'm one of the coolest girls they've ever met but, honestly, this hasn't helped my love live at all. I keep meeting really cool guys, but that's exactly what the problem is...

Apparently, the cool attract other cool individuals in order to find people they can hang out with. To get some action, at least one of you has to be HOT! Being cool is never enough.

Dammit! I need to revamp my entire image! "Vamp" being the operative word. Ugh!

-------------------------------------

I'd like to think that I'm generally a good person. According to some people, I can actually be really "nice" (whatever that means).

Unfortunately, like the rest of my kind, I also have the capacity to be the most evil fucking bitch in the whole bloody world. Not "manipulative"... Not "underhanded"... Not even "conniving"... Just plain EVIL....

Sadly, there are people and events that have brought out that monster lurking in the deepest and DARKEST part of my soul.

Syeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!

Twentysomething

I love this song. It just seems so... appropriate (for lack of a better term)...

This is for all us twentysomethings. :D

TWENTYSOMETHING (Jamie Cullum)

After years of expensive education,
a car full of books and anticipation,
I’m an expert on Shakespeare and that’s a hell of a lot
but the world don't need scholars as much as I thought.

Maybe I'll go travelling for a year,
finding myself or start a career.
I could work for the poor though I’m hungry for fame
we all seem so different but we're just the same.

Maybe I'll go to the gym, so I don't get fat,
aren't things more easy with a tight six pack?
Who knows the answers? Who do you trust?
I can't even separate love from lust.

Maybe I’ll move back home and pay off my loans,
working nine to five answering phones.
Don't make me live for my friday nights,
drinking eight pints and getting in fights.

I don't want to get up, just let me lie in,
leave me alone, I'm a twenty something.

Maybe I'll just fall in love that could solve it all,
philosophers say that that’s enough,
there surely must be more. Ooooh

Love ain’t the answer nor is work,
the truth eludes me so much it hurts.
But I’m still having fun and I guess that's the key,
I'm a twenty something and I'll keep being me.

A Horrible Way to Start Off the Week

I really hate starting off my week with that "Tangina, I screwed up!" feeling. It has a way of seriously fucking up my system.

Grrr... "Give me a copy of what the final product will look like" is NOT equal to "finalize and deliver everything to me." How the hell was I supposed to know that they didn't understand that?!

Haay....

I guess this is still my fault. I should have made myelf CRYSTAL clear. Dammit! :(

Ugh.

Holy Week

Holy Week is usually "family time" for us. We almost never even bother making plans with our friends, because none of us want to break tradition. Even at my age (26), I think I've only spent 2 or 3 Holy Weeks away from my family...

This year's no different. One of my friends actually called me from Baguio to check up on me. He seemed bored. He said that he and the rest of our friends "cleaned the house and have nothing else to do. Haha, poor boy...

Anyway, the only thing that sucks about this year's Holy Week is that my allergies are acting up and I'm on anti-histamines. I think I spent most of my break asleep. Since, I'll be taking meds till Sunday (EASTER!!!!), that pretty means "no alcohol" for me. :( Waaaahhhh.... :( I'm sure my family (cousins, uncles and aunts) will be have a blast teasing me about that when we meet up tomorrow.

Hmph! I think I should stop now. I'm starting to get all whiny and shit. :(

Montemar - Bagac, Bataan

The office outing was tons of fun! Hahaha, non-stop eating and drinking! Why is it, that everytime I go to the beach, I end up binging on chips and drinking my weight in beer?!

I'm now as red as lobster. I burned. I did not tan. Somehow, pouring beer on myself to make me turn golden brown DID NOT WORK! I wonder what I did wrong? However, despite the stinging sensation on my skin that won't seem to go away, I would love to go back. I love the beach! Plus, the people from the office are really great! It helped that Montemar was pretty nice, too. That was a pleasant surprise. I didn't even mind the fact that we got a room without a tv. :)

Bitin ang overnight trip. I think we should have spent two nights there (Fri-Sun or Sat-Mon), instead of just the weekend!

READY FOR THE BEACH!

I have not been to the beach in ages! I'm all pumped up for the office outing this weekend! Woohoo!

Well, yeah, it would be absolutely fab if the salbabida/beer belly generally called my "tummy" could miraculously disappear overnight, but, well.... *shrug*

Ugh. Thank God for board shorts!

Life Goes On

I'm taking failure surprisingly well.

It really isn't the end of the world.

While I still cry every now and then (I am human, you know), overall, I'm ok.

I'm really lucky to have so many people who love and support me.

Thanks. :)

Here's to making it this time around.
