I remember back in high school one of my best friends and I found test papers of the other section. Those were test papers for English and there was an essay part. I immediately checked the test paper of my crush from that section and was totally disappointed when I saw his essay. He didn’t know how to use You’re!!!
I would like to believe that he now knows how to use it.
Ha-ha-ha!
Hahaha!
Just something to laugh about in this Tuesday afternoon.
Happy Tuesday everyone!
If you could bring one fictional character to life for a day, who would you choose?
Could it be Edward Cullen from Twilight? I would love for him to bite me!
Hahaha!
I love watching makeovers! Home improvements and personal improvements as well. Oprah reruns are of the various makeovers they did on men and women in different parts of the US. It was so much fun watching those persons get a second chance in life. Some a second chance on romance!
One particular person hasn’t gotten a haircut for years. His hair has grown so long that he looked like a hermit! But when the style team of Oprah and Tim Gunn happened on him, he came out looking debonair! He was actually handsome when his hair was cut and his clothes changed!
What a change!
I also love watching home makeover shows in cable. I watch at least two of this kind of shows every week!
Actually there will be four of us and it’s not really a pajama party. But I’d like to think it is because it’ll be more fun that way, right?
My friends and I thought of spending the night at a hotel a few days from now. It is a bon voyage party of sorts for one of my friends because she will be leaving the country soon. Since we haven’t really done this, spend the night together, we thought it is high time we do this before we’re down to three.
Can’t wait!
I think it’ll be movie marathon Sunday for me this weekend! I feel like watching the Harry Potter movies again. From Sorcerer’s Stone to Half Blood Prince.
What do you think?
And some HBO movies as well?
I am the type of person who when I like something I get hooked on it. Take for example my newest obsession… Pretty Little Liars. Yup, that US tv series. The one based on the books of the same title by Sara Shepard.
If you haven’t seen an episode of it yet, I suggest you do so. Just watch the pilot episode and I tell you, you’ll get hooked in no time at all! I am doing a marathon viewing of the ten episodes already aired in the US. I have two more episodes to go. And man, I am telling you, I am itching to buy all eight of the Pretty Little Liars books and read it all in a sitting! I want to find out who “A” is and what his/her problem is!
Have you seen this tv series yet?
One of the shows that I like to watch on weekends is Hoarders. I get to learn more and more about Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, specifically Compulsive Hoarding. I also get to peek inside the lives of hoarders.
It’s not a fun show to watch. You get sucked into the lives of the two hoarders being featured each show. But I still watch it because in a twisted way, it is fascinating. Watching how hoarders deal with parting with their stuff which they clearly don’t need anymore.
Have you watched an episode of this show? If you haven’t yet, I suggest you should.
Want to listen in on the song in my happy place? My Life Would Suck Without You by Kelly Clarkson…
Be happy!
I feel like walking in a park right now…
It’s just too bad that we have very limited places similar to parks in other countries. Like the photo above. It would have been great if I can just go out and be in a park to walk, or to sit and observe other people walk by, or to just sit or lie down on the grass and let my mind wander.
It would have been so much fun!
I just find it so romantic for a man, who is not really a singer, to be singing and carrying a tune. Like what this man did in a song that is currently on the loop in my player…
Zachary Levi is the man playing Chuck in the series of the same title. I wasn’t really aware of the guy until I heard the song Terrified by Katharine McPhee. He is featured in the song. Yes, he did a duet with Katharine McPhee. And he did so well in it!
You can view the video of the song Terrified via Youtube. Listen to Zachary and tell me if the man didn’t get hotter in your eyes!
Do you still whisper a wish when you see a wishing star?
When I was a kid, I used to look at the sky at night waiting for one. I had so many things to wish for! I would lay down on a make-shift bed outside the house and would gaze at the sky until I could no longer keep my eyes open. I was a kid who loved to daydream so you can just imagine how my heart held on to the promise of a wishing star.
I wish it wasn’t that way but I know for a fact that I will forever be struggling with my weight. I’ve been like this since I was a kid. I don’t even know if I can beat this anymore. It’s just so hard to resist good food! And when I get those uncontrollable cravings…
You know what? If I have my own television, it will be tuned in only on one channel. That’s Travel & Living only. I love travel shows and most especially cooking shows! Anything about food, cooking with traveling… I love that!
And of course, I should mention that I am a big fan of Jamie Oliver, Anthony Bourdain, Ian Wright and Curtis Stone.
What’s your favorite thing to do on a rainy Saturday?
I actually love curling up on the sofa or on the bed during a rainy Saturday. I bring with me a good book or two and my ever reliable booklight. And then I read until I get sleepy.
Sometimes, when I am inclined, I go watch movies one after another. But I prefer curling up and reading.
I had a huge crush on this sophomore guy when I was already a senior. His name was Jonathan. I remember he was so darn cute! He’s my sister’s classmate. He knew I had a crush on him and I didn’t mind. I was like that. I let the person I had a crush on know my feelings for him. Makapal talaga mukha ko noon! Hehehe
There was also this project in our Values Education subject wherein we were all given a prayer leaf each for babies who were to be aborted. We were to ‘adopt’ two babies, name them, and then would pray for them every day. I named my babies Jonathan after him and Vergel after the then popular basketball player with whom I had a huge crush on, too.
I have this really cool notebook that I found back in college. There were stores near the university selling different school items. I found the unique and pretty notebook there!
I remember I couldn’t afford it. It was expensive, selling for a hundred bucks. During that time, a hundred bucks can get you through 3 days of school already. But I really wanted that notebook so I saved up and bought it when I already had the money.
I made it a scrapbook. I wrote my favorite quotes in it, some inspirational stories and lots of kikay stuff. I almost lost it, my dad putting it in the junk box in our storage area. Good thing I found it over the weekend. Now, it will surely be filled with more kikay stuff
P.S. Sorry, I will just post a photo of it tomorrow after I get my digicam fixed.
My friend was teasing her daughter about being a crybaby. They watched Shrek Forever After and her eldest daughter cried. According to my friend, her daughter cries in every movie they watch. I was laughing at their banter. But I realized after that I am also a crybaby. I also cry a little in almost every movie I get to watch. I think it’s the melodramatic in me that surfaces during those times I shed a tear or two.
I cried in The Last Song when the little boy, the younger brother of the lead character broke down when his dad was in critical condition already. I cried when Tatum Channing cried in Dear John. I cried a little in How To Train Your Dragon during the part that the boy realized he lost his leg. And so many more scenes in different movies I’ve watched.
Have you cried while watching a movie yourself?
When I was younger, I used to dream of collecting angel figurines. Like the photo above. I love angels. I feel like there’s one guiding us every step of the way and the figurine is a perfect representation of the angel I have in mind. A friend in college gave me two angel figurines. I know my mom stored most of our things because we were supposed to move. I think it’s in one of the boxes left unopened upstairs.
I no longer dream of collecting angel figurines. I still love angels but I have outgrown that desire for clutter. I think I will get single one for my room soon. Not now but soon when I already have the money to buy a Lladro.
I have been thinking of getting a condo unit. Partly as an investment, partly because I want something to call my very own. We all live in a house owned by my dad. He keeps on telling us that the house will go to us in the future. But I don’t want to to share in it. I want the house to go to our youngest. Anyway, my sisters and I can afford to get our own houses.
What I like in a condo is that it is small and easy to maintain. And I must admit, it is a status symbol for some people. It is for me. It will be a visible sign of how much I was able to achieve in my life.
