belated

hope everyone had a great christmas - like what i had :) except that i was soooo tired catchin up with last minute christmas gift-shopping. promise, i will set aside sufficient time next year for buying gifts. ayoko na nang harassed. :(

many thanks to those who remembered me and exerted efforts to wrap something for me and to those who sent me messages, and also those who texted back to my greetings.

special mention to my long-time mare, mildred, who i wasn't able to see this christmas. i know you had a wonderful christmas 'dred, missed you though.

MALIGAYANG PASKO again :)

four months after

pissed.

close to tears.

torn between my love for what i am doing and the piled up emotions.

i dont know for how long i can keep up with this, or...

if i can keep up with this.

shopaholic-aholic

i am itchin to buy a new book by sophie kinsella, preferably about becky. i really adore her shopaholic series! roxie sent me the e-book copies of the three shopaholic series (shopaholic, shopaholic goes to manhattan, and shopaholic ties the knot) and i was sooo engrossed with becky brandon that i bought the "and baby" sequel. i skipped "the sister" ed. hehehe...

and i didn't find "eleven minutes" of coelho as exciting as "river piedra".

ala tuloy ako new reading material... sigh...

marta's cakes

i am a very "visual" person. i enjoy seeing pics. i get easily bored with all text reading stuff (parang ironic no, with my profession? unless may SCRA na na with pics! hahaha! fabulous!)... hence, id like to share with you some pics i wasnt able to post before due to my (recurring) hiatus. (yun lang pala yun)... here goes...

TRIP TO MARTA'S

one time when we were channel-hopping, we saw this show in qtv which featured MARTA'S CAKES!!! a lil placey where kids (and adults even) can decorate their own cupcakes and cookies. one branch is located at the serendra (i just saw a small place set up at glorietta). super great talaga. the pastries were yummy and it's really fun filling up your cupcakes with loads of icings, and loading lots of colors to your cupcake!




clarence with his train cookies!


clarisse and her house-shaped cookies!


FINISHED NA!




and guess what, birthday parties can also be held there!!! hmmm...

24 hours

why do we only have 24 hours a day? sobrang kulang, moreso, come december. i CANNOT squeeze all what i am supposed to do in a a day! and i'm sleep-deprived!

my list of "to do's" appears to be unending. it's one foreboding "infinity sign"!

pleadings...gifts...wrapping gifts...cards...opinions...reunions... haaayyy, everything needs to be rushed!!! (plus an appointment with the doctor, hay)

if only i could allot a day. just one day where i can read my favorite book and bemused by its chic-theme, while sipping my venti toffee nut latte...then i will be totally fine.

please eject me from my seat, so i could fly high to mars (uranus is a lot better).

sick (again...after 3 months)

caught the virus. hay, my nose is clogged (what a way to describe it!). can't smell the aroma of my toffee nut latte (which i am compelled to purchase every morning if only to obtain stickers for the planner). can't smell my hair even (whether the dust and smoke has replaced the scent of my favorite shampoo). hay, kainis. three months ago lang may sakit ako, eto na naman.

on top of that, in a few days time, i'd be the only avugaga in the firm who does not have her own car. :( it aint that bad, especially when bad traffic greets me in the morning. it's just that...nakakahiya. hahaha :)

sadly, i do not want to drive kasi. sadder, i can't afford to hire a chaffeur (tama ba? hahaha, driver na nga lang!). nakakatakot kasi. kahit na sa panaginip kagaling ko magdrive! =p

time to go home. another day.
