sleeping beauty

eto talaga pangarap ko eh, di naman maging abogada.

just imagine, among the other fairy tale characters, si sleeping beauty lang ang hindi nagdusa, AT ALL..

she lived a grandiose life, being a princess at birth. born with a silver spoon, she did not experience any hardship - unlike cinderella, snow white or belle even. kahit pa nga si ariel.

tapos, nakatulog siya. 100 years?

hmmm... sarap di ba, yun pa lang.

she slept for what-it-seemed-like-a-lifetime. then, she was awaken by a kiss - true love's kiss!

aptly, bonggang-bongga.

i want to be like sleeping beauty.

one, because life's so easy for her (rich kasi sya, period!).

second, she only slept yet was found by someone who loved her (samantalang ako, di ko alam san pang lupalop ng mundo ako pupunta para lang mahanap prince charming ko!)

third, she did not do anything yet lived happily ever after (ano yun, natulog lang tapos sumaya na?!).

lam ko na wish ko for christmas.

me and myself

my really good fwen, porky maan, left for singapore last saturday. equally good fwen jen, left a week before maan took her 7am flight.

now, i no longer have anybody to be with every weekend. no one patiently waits for me anymore while i fly my way from ortigas to makati. no one to eat dencio's sisig with - and share hungrypac choco cake after. no morning greetings over ym. sad.

sometimes, i do not want to invest in friendships anymore. one, because i am afraid that they'll leave me later on. and two, i'm no good in alloting time for my friends because of work.

hay, hate my work. hay, hate being a lawyer crossing about three cities just to earn a living.

yeah right

PoRkY T!N's DaY...
Our friendship started a decade ago, from skywalker experienced to sisig-emote moments we are always together like Batman and Robin. Tests of friendship also challenged us but we managed to stay solid and loyal to one another. She is one friend who is always there to listen and to emote with you, hahaha, minsan pa nga mas emote sya. That's why I call her my " co-best dramatic actress", pero d best pa rin ako ha? lol!...

Just like with Jen, no words can truly explain how much I'm glad to have her in my life. She is not just a friend but also a sister to me, extended pa nga yan kc it's not only to me whom she extends her love and concern kc pati family ko feels how much Tin loves them...

And today on her 29th birthday on the 29th of April, 2008, I would like to share to you "29things that best describes Atty. Ma. Cristina C. Constantino"...

(here she posted my pic, which, for some reason, i wasn't able to copy)

1. Her family call her "Maricris" but for me she's my "porks"
2. She's "naynay" cum "tita sexy" to clarence and clarisse.
3. She's a true blue 'taurean",perfect match ang personality nya sa zodiac sign nya...
4. She loves to bake...wanna taste the famous crinkles and brownies? ask her to bake for u, masipag yan eh!
5. She loves her bed so much kya nga pag bakasyon at me lakad kyo, always advance your call time ng 2 to 3 hours kung ayaw nyo mag-antay ng almost half day, lol! peace!
6. She's also a certified "mamba", short for "mambabasura"...Khit candy wrapper pa yan, she'll keep it for years, lalo kung galing sa malapit sa puso nya.
7. Never a dull moment, khit pagtulog para kang always on a "dolby sounds surround" room....
8. Sya ang pnakanaunang nagka-boypren sa min, hahhaa...who wouldn't know the "high-school grad stokwa story"?, hehehe...peace!...Seriously, she had 3 wonderful love story, that is definetely pang MMK!
9. Certified hearthrob during our elementary & highschool days...hahaha, ewan ko nga lang kung san na ngayon ang mga admirers nya, hoy ngayon kayo kelangan ni cristina! lol
10. At since hearthrob nga, sympre kasunod nun ang pagiging muse nya...
11. She sings good pero shy sya, member nga yan ng glee club sa dept nila sa san beda? hmmm, bkit sa ldsp di ka nag-member? kaw ha?
12. She might not be as tall as the supermodels, but her achievements are as high or baka nga higher pa than those models...
13. Her intelligence is not only limited to her field but also to showbiz balita...Sya po ang nagintroduce sa kin ng pep website, chicka.com, blogs of kc concepcion, dj montano at kung sino-sino pang hot celebrity...hehehe
14. Obviously, Tin is someone who loves to eat, that's why if you wanna know some latest grantisadong masarap na resto or bakeshop, just ask her coz she'll definetely have an answer.
15. 24 hours is not enough to her busy schedule...partida, ala pa syang bf nyan ha?
16. Since she's a very busy personality, bumabawi na lang sya sa pagma-marathon ng mga favorite american series nya during her off days...hmm, that makes her edu's secret enemy number 1, hehehe...
17. She is a certified " Sharonian"... Ask her about tita shawie's movies, 99% nun napanuod na nya at meron pa syang collection ng old to present movies at magazines about tita sharon...Di lang yun, pati family ni tita shawie, number 1 fan sya!
18. Tin is one her person who 100% commits herself in anything she does...oops, except for diet!
19. She hates veggies!
20. Her fave foods are sisig, liempo, crispy pata, kwek-kwek, itlog ng pugo at iba pang pangpahigh-blood...her alibi, bsta me gamot naman sya, oks lang kumain ng kumain, lol!
21. When she's irita, never talk to her, kc she's really out of her mind...
22. When she's sad or depressed, she tends to drink a lot and when she's drunk, tago ka na kung ayaw mong mapagkamalang "rapist"...hehehe
23. Code name: Baygon
24. She loves the song "one last cry",kahit it seems to be "non-stop cry"
25. She adores shoes, though sometimes shoes doesn't adore her...hehehe...Pasalamat ang mga koreano sa knya dahil isa sya sa mga pwede mong sabihin stockholder ng korean shoes...
26. She hates to swim maging swimming pool man or beach, NO yan for Tin! Kya naman bhira kming mag-outing, 2nd year highschool pa ata kmi the last time we went to a resort...
27. 100% picture adik!
28. Maswerte ka kung masagot ka nya agad pag nagtext or tumwag ka sa cellphone nya...Kadalasan puti na ang mata mo, bago sya magreply! hehehe...
29. Mabilis man syang magpapalit-palit ng employer, but her personality is still the same old Tnay I've known more than 10 years ago...She is such a passionate and self-driven woman, and a wonderful daughter, sister, tita, and friend to the people around her...

POSTSCRIPT: im really sorry for having to put down in writing even the very hour that my friends sent me a message. i actually do this yearly, even before texting came into existence in the philippines. i always prepare a list of those people who phoned me or greeted me in any way. however, there were a few years when i lost the list (meron din naman ibang years na naiwan). so for posterity's sake, i am making this entry.

POSTSCRIPT TO THE POSTSCRIPT: so, pano na lang sa di nakagreet? hehehe... dont worry, i don't bear grudges naman except lang if you forgot to remember me on my day, hehehe. ;p

29

happy birthday to me! :)

here is how i spent my day...

0000H to 0600H - doze off (may surprising dream ako about him, again!)
0600H to 0700H - preparation for my hearing (you know, daily hygiene and stuff)
0700H to 0930H - travel time (to nlrc banawe for my 1030 hearing, with my ate in tow)
0930H to 1100H - hearing proper (for two cases)
1100H to 1230H - trip to tomas morato for food reservation AND lunch at amici (yummy, had pizza and lasagna plus their oh-so-delicious gelato)
1201H to 1300H - trekked the morato area, dropped by at charms&crystal and off to laguna
1301H to 1600H - trip back home (while answering bday greetings)
1600H to present - devoured my handa,hihi, and still devouring, while checkin my emails and friendster

had a blast... somethin's missing though. siguro, it's because i wasn't able to visit Him and thank Him.

love my day.
