I like to travel a lot,
go to places I've never been.
I'm a very sentimental
person,
I treasure things so much.
I don't know much about
blogging even though
I have a friendster blog
(it's still different here),
so bare with me. I'm open
to suggestions/comments/critiques
concerning this page,
just tell me how to improve it ok.
thanks!

hey there! want to know what i've been up to for the past 2 weeks? hehe
wala kami kasi internet for the past weeks nag-down and server namin...
i slept in the hospital for 4 nights to look after my cousin who was confined from november 21(early morning) to 26 (afternoon). in the hospital, it seems like where just at home.. haha! we played scrabble, watched movies on the laptop... we even slept in our pajamas as and felt as if we're just in our room. i go out and get something to eat, we don't like the foods being served in the hospital.. (i don't know...) hehe..
i didn't go to work for 4 days... oh! i did! i just went to the office to make a travel order for my boss.. haha! nakisali na rin ako.. para hindi lumabas na absent yung mga araw na yun...
anyway, here's somthing i've done the past days...
November 26
i woke up early... as in around 4:30 am to take a bath (in the hospital..hehe) para hindi pa gising mga pipol... ang lamig! dahil sa kalakasan na rin ng aircon sa buong building...
then, i left and went to the airport to fetch my aunt whom is coming from London... and guess what... it's my first time to go to the airport all by myself.. aha... i was used to go there but with a private vehicle and with my mom/sisters...
her arrival was 7:30am... because i was eager to be early and afraid to be lost, i travelled early.. i took the mrt till' taft and rode in an airconditioned bus going to MIA. i dropped in front of the big building, i went straight to the entrance not knowing that the arrival and departure has different entrances hehe... (sensya na po!)
finally i reached the waiting area (and familiar yung parking lot.. hehe yun lang naaalala ko eh) i was there 6:30am... SSOOOO EARLY! I was just happy to get there safely... i waited for the plane, watched the screen ate eggnog... then ALAS! tehre she is.. walking down with her cart...
we headed to mabini (as usual.. favorite place to look for a hotel...) hay naku! walang vacant! it's because of the participants in the 23rd sea games... (CONGRATS PHILIPPINE ATHLETES!) fully book mga hotels... and to think ha, daming hotels sa lugar na yun... oh well, we wereable to have a room.. pero regular lang... but it's ok...
until now, we're staying there... i'm calling every hotel for a vacancy pero wala pa... hopefully meron sa copacobana or sa tropical this afternoon....
I also had my first pedicure done on this day.. huhu! painful in a way, but my nails looked better.. hehe...
we went to quiapo and looked for pearls and materials to be used in making bracelets, earring and necklaces.. my aunt got excited and we just spent the whole afternoon walking...
November 27
my mom and sister came, we attended mass at malate church. ate our brunch at Aristocrat, we spent almost 1 and 1/2 hours there.. eating and chatting... haha! we couldn't think of a place to go, that day was not planned...
so we walked (bay walk, in the middle of the afternoon.. hay kainit! kapraning!) an icecream man came along, the one we had during our elementary days. it has only 5 flavors, but the cones are now upgraded.. sweet cones na.. yung matigas.. we ate until we decided to go to divisoria... we passed by US embassy... and finally took a cab.
here's the thing, 10 mins after getting into the cab, the driver told us his meter is not working, we should go look for another cab... he stopped infront of the stoplight and when the door swung open, a foreigner came waiting for us to get out, we told him not to take the cab.. hehe.. kasi nga destroyed and metro diba....
but then the driver is willing to take the passenger.. but good for the man not to get in... we all waited for another cab. praning yung driver! kala siguro nun maiisahan nya kami at yung kano... pasenyas senyas pa sya... praning!
wala kami masyado nabili kasi wala lang.. hehe
ako, napabili tuloy ng pajama.. kasi wala na akong extra clothes... i wasn't expecting to stay with them for 3 days...( and more) so hayun, better buy something to wear at night, just to be comfortable...
in the evening, we again walked in bay walk, there are lots of people... we decided to eat at the same resto where we ate our brunch.. good for us we arrived at the resto on time... it rained and all those eating outside run and looked for a shade..
inside the resto, we were chilling... (lalo na ako.. i was on skirt and got no jacket..... i used my sandals and no weay to warm my feet.... kaloka!
November 28
i had my first mad pack.... si mama kasi pasimuno! hayun kaming apat itim ng mukha... ewan ko kung ano klase yung nilagay nya s amukha namin... pero i don't like the smell of it... pag tuyo na, ngeks! fil mo yung binabanat yung skin mo. after nun ewan ko kung ano yung effect... hehe (igno nho!)
in the early evening, we went to quiapo (again..) to buy materials (again..) then we had dinner in Ongpin Street. we were walking trying to look for a new place to eat. we entered a chinese restaurant (i think...) coz the name sounds like chenez...
we had Shabu - shabu.. hehe... i was wondering what shabu-shabu means... then we sat on a table with a hole in the middle.. hayun, the hole was a gas range.. then the waitress places somthing where we can grill and cook something with soup.. from that, i knew then that we're going to cook our own food.. and i'ts correct... they gave us raw foods.. the fish, the balls, tofu's, vegetables, seasoning....
we cooked, grilled with margarine and it tastes really good... the manager, she's really kind and accomodating... she comes to our table every now and then to check if we need anything, or if we're enjoying.. blah-blah-blah.. chika-chika...
whew! we even had bon jovi in the background... there was an LCD where we watched bonjovi's concert... his rock songs were changed to slow rock and i liked the way he performed the slow rock...
when we reached the hotel, hayun, shower tapos nood tv tapos hala.. inumpisahan na magexperiment... i made a bracelet and i admit it.. i copied the design i saw in the shop where we bought the materials.. hehe... (bad me?... shheeessh! kinopya rin lang yun sa magazine nho!)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ok, so that's a little recap... today, i got out of the hotel early.. mga 7:20am.. (early ba yun!) then, back to the same routine... paper...paper..paer...work... this week, it's gonna be a busy week AGAIN.... getting used to it anyway...
hhhmmm.... i hope we'll go to cebu/palawan/tacloban... kahit sabit lang.. haha!
