Whew!

Studying/Preparing for a presentation with the big bosses this Friday.
Creating a draft for a wedding that I'll be hosting in a couple of weeks.
Playing FruitNinja on the side. Still trying to break my own record.
Semi-facebooking.
Catching up with a friend on Viber.
Thinking of what to eat/cook for dinner.




Multi-tasking at its best. (It's either that or I have ADHD.)


LOL.

Less is more? Hahaha

I am not feeling well today so I am just in bed the whole time.  And to entertain myself, I've just been downloading stuff online, playing alternately between Fruit Ninja and Text Twist, reading an e-book of Darkly Dreaming Dexter and surfing the net.  Yes, I do all these things simultaneously because I have ADHD. Hahaha! I cannot seem to focus on just one thing at any given time.

So while I was browsing the net, I saw this funny slogan and it made me laugh.  And you know what, it has a ring of truth to it.

I should know. I have small boobies. LOL!

They remember the very basic details like what clothes I was wearing or how infectious my laughter was. Most of the time, it's the sparkle in my eyes that register in their memory.  

Now I know why. Hahahahahaha! :)

Anyway, since the focus is always on my eyes (because there's nothing worth seeing from the neck down, LOL!), I decided to get me some eyelash extensions.  It was a painful 1-hour process of glue-ing the lashes on my lids one by one!!!! Actually, ndi masakit yung procedure kase dinidikit lang naman yung lashes pero ang masakit is yung glue na gamit. Ang hapdddiiiii! I was crying non-stop while the procedure was going on.

After the procedure was done, I felt like I was Betty Boop (minus the boobs).  My eyelashes were so long and full, I can use it to sweep the floor! AHAHAHAHAHAHA! :)

The only downside to having eyelash extensions is that I cannot sleep on my stomach because it might ruin the form of the lashes. But other than that, I like that I always look put-together even when I do not have make-up on. Pag gising mo pa lang, parang pa-party ka na agad. LOL!

It has been over a month since I had it done and a few lashes have already fallen out.  I haven't had time the past couple of days to go back and have it re-filled. (Hahaha, parang softdrinks lang.) 

Have a great start of the week everyone! :))

Past is past

P.S. Ang tripod ay hindi patungan ng kamay. LOL.

I like taking pictures of myself when I'm bored.  And then I like to edit it to make it appear black-and-white. Like this one.

Instagram is my best friend. Hehehe.

Or sometimes sepia. Like this one.

I like it because it gives a vintage touch to my photos.  Parang blast from the past. LOL. Speaking of the past, I had a run-in with an old flame a week ago (or was it two?). We ended up having early breakfast together and we caught up on each other's lives.  

There was no spark anymore but it was nice to see that he was doing great. It was like meeting an old friend.  

Hmmmmm, I wonder who I'd run into next. :)

Ang Hot Air Balloon Festival (Na Walang Hot Air Balloon!)

A couple of weeks back, my friend mentioned that there was going to be a Hot Air Balloon Festival in Clark.  She wanted us to go along with the rest of our other gal pals.  We all said yes and we even checked the schedule of activities online so we can be there early.  

We planned to start the day veryyyyy early since the balloon take-off will be at 5:30AM.  But of course, since we were turtle-slow, the original time of 3AM was moved to 4:30AM!!!!! So that gives us an hour to get to Clark from Fairview! WTF? So anyway, off we went to NLEX to try and see if we can still make it in time for the hot air balloon exhibition.

We didn't stop for breakfast because we do not want to be late. LOL. It was a good thing that my friend brought junk food. It was our saving grace.

The drive was good until we reached Clark! It was bumper to bumper traffic!!!!!! It was already close to 6AM and the balloons already took off! We would not be able to see it up close if we stay in the car and wait for the traffic to subside.

So what's the next best thing than be stuck in this madness? Get out of the car and take pictures of what's left of the hot air balloons! Hahahahahaha! 

Me and my bestfriend! :)

We took pictures right outside the fence because there was a long line in the entrance!!! Baka by the time na makapasok na kame, wala nang hangin ang mga lobo! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! So inavail na namen ang picture picture!

By the time that we were able to get a good parking space and were able to go inside the exhibition area, wala na yung mga hot air balloons! LOL! :)) Buti nalang may mga ibat iba pang kaganapan doon. Hehe. So pwede na din. Hehe. And oh, I forgot to mention... it was soooooo hotttt! Had I known that it would be super hot that day, I would've lathered sunblock all over. Hay, grabe ang init, pramis!

 

Ang init init init!!!! Kung alam ko lang na ganito kainit, sana nag 2pc nalang ako! LOL.

Sabe ko sa Coast Guard umarte sya na parang sinasaktan nya ko. Aba, feel na feel masyado ni Kuya! :p

Ayan, best in bukaka ako. Ang init kase eh. Hehehehe!

The Retards. 

It's a very gloomy Monday... overcast sky + cold air makes up for bed weather!!!!!! I'll go back and sleep some more. I will continue my blogpost tomorrow. Hehe.

Have a great Mondayyyyyy everyone! Keep your dispositions sunny despite the weather! :)

Mwah mwah!

Seriously.

I'm turning into an old, boring spinster.

Seriously.

I don't have a social life.  I hardly have time to check my Facebook and Yahoo! accounts. And most of my time is being consumed by work, work and nothing but work.

Weekends are spent just lounging around at home, either watching DVDs or reading a good book or just dozing off.

It's been a very busy 2012 but I don't mind.  I know that the dust will eventually settle and I'll be back to my old fun and quirky self in no time! :) Hehe. (with enough time on my hands to go out and enjoy)

So anyway, we had a 2-days summit in Baguio last weekend. As expected, it's not really for pure R&R. It's actually work. Hahahah. Yeah I know. I'm turning into an old, boring workaholic. LOL.

But we managed to find time to go out last Saturday night.  I went out with my officemates and we drank and danced and shisha-ed the night away! Hahaha. Like what they always say, work hard - party harder! LOL.

It was a very cold night but since I really do not own anything long and thick to cover my hot bod from the 15-degrees-C windy night, I just opted to wear a dress and a jacket! Hahahaha. Good luck naman sa lameg. Tiis-ganda at its best. When we got to Nevada Square, we were shocked because most of the women were wearing tube-tops and minis! WOW! Nagmukha akong conservative! Hahahahahaha! May mga naka-shorts pa at sando! OMG! Hindi ka ata IN dun pag wala kang pulmonia! LOL. Everyone was dressed to party! Wala silang pakialam kahit na 15 degrees pa yung lameg!

It was a fun night.  Had a great time partying with my officemates.

Me and my Isaw. BOW.

 Booze fest

Shisha + mango-flavor = Sarap!!!

Kumusta? :)


The Boring One (LOL),

You know you're getting old when....

...when you go to the grocery and scan the aisle specifically for milk that are for "ADULT PLUS".  

I love drinking milk but I don't drink it everyday.  But since I just turned 30 a couple of weeks back, I am reminded that I am not young anymore so I need to take in as much milk (milk=calcium=stronger bones, lol!) to keep my bones strong. Hehehehe.

I didn't take a leave from work on the day of my birthday. As you get older, you realize that the world doesn't stop just because it's your big day. So I was working last January 5th. It was the first time in a long while that I spent my birthday in the office. But that's life, there are responsibilities that need to be fulfilled. I was in our Lipa office on the day of my birthday, working my ass off. LOL. We had an important meeting that cannot be cancelled. We got back in Manila January 6th and that's when I took a leave off from work and just spent three straight days holed up at home.

I was planning to go somewhere fun but it was a very rainy weekend and it's so hard to get out of bed.  So I just stayed in, ordered chinese take-out and pizza and spent the weekend catching up on my torrent downloads. I used to have a fear of growing old. I used to get shingles when I think of turning 30.  But you know what, it's not so bad from where I'm sitting right now. I feel more independent and empowered and I feel more wise (?) about life, love, money and everything that comes in-between.

Have a great Monday everyone! Mwah mwah! :)

Bridal Shower

I organized a bridal shower for a friend. It was a semi-surprise party. Why semi-surprise? Because they knew that a bridal shower was going to happen but they didnt know where it would be held. Hehe. Sneaky, right? :)

I asked all the girls to meet-up in Metrowalk by 8pm and when most of the guests were already there, I told them to go to our party venue - Victoria Court in Pasig! Hehehe.  I booked the "Matrix"-themed room and I ordered a food package for 10 people. 

I also bought cake and lollipops for the bridal shower. Here are some of the "facebook-friendly" pics from last night. The other pictures are for our eyes only, hahaha.

Condoms, Banana and Lots of Ahermmmm.... Props for our Bridal Shower games :)

"Walang babaeng pangit, sa t*t*ing galit.... Hahahahaha!"

Matrix meets Transformers = Futuristic Loveseat! =)

It was a fun night! Makes me wana try their other themed rooms too! 

How's your week going so far?

My Life is One Big GAG Show!

If my life were a tv show, 1/4 of it would be like a primetime drama-serye and 3/4 comedy/gag show (think Bubble Gang-slash-Wow Mali!).

And here's a good example:

I went to the hospital yesterday and here's how my conversation with the doctor went ---

Doctor : So, eto ang irereseta ko sayo, okay?

Khaye : Doc, super nahihilo talaga ako and para akong laging matutumba pag yan ang iniinom ko. *insert sad face*

Doctor : Ganyan talaga iha, konting tiis lang.

Khaye : (trying to find a work-around) Doc, feeling ko ndi talaga ko hiyang sa gamot na yan eh. Wala na po bang ibang pwedeng inumin instead na yan?

Doctor : Actually, meron. Hindi ka mahihilo dito. Pero ang side-effect nito, mabibingi ka. Ano ba mas gusto mo, mabingi or mahilo?

Khaye : (trying to suppress my laughter) Ahm, doc, tiisin ko nalang po yung hilo. =)

Hehehehe.

Have a great week ahead!

Mwah,

-=K=-

Istapegi

I love to cook (i just don't like washing the dishes afterwards, hahaha) but I don't like to cook for one. Feeling ko it's impractical - waste of time, energy and gas (ang mahal na ng gas noh!). I do a bit of cooking on weekdays but most of the time, it's either fastfood or food from our office pantry. Hehe.

That's why I always look forward to our Sunday lunches at my parents' house because that's the only time that I get to experience real home-cooked meals.  Perfect attendance kameng magkakapatid yesterday, good job! Hahaha! And as always, my mom cooked a hearty lunch for us. Yehey!

Thank you Lord for the gift of family!

My lovely sisters =)

I feel so busog and blessed. Hee! :)

(And my favorite part of all - lagi akong may take-out! HAHAHAHAHA!)

Hope you all had a great weekend!

Sinful

I am a rice-lover. I eat rice with anything!  If rice were a man, I'd ask him to marry me. Twice. LOL. I bet we'd make a great pair!

When I'm out on dates and they ask where I want to eat, my staple answer is "Anywhere where there's plenty of rice!". HAHAHAHA. I used to consume 2-3cups of rice per meal.  But since I am not getting any younger, I decided to cut it down to one.

And since November, I switched to brown rice. They say it's healthier. I don't know if it's true pero wala lang, gusto ko lang maki-uso. Haha.

Pero enough of all this health shit because last night I had rice + wagyu + bacon for dinner! Now I know how an orgasm feels like! *insert evil laugh*

Do you guys have any new foodie finds that are sinfully delish? Please share them with me so I can try.

Absent

I didn't go to work today because I'm not feeling well.  I feel like my head's going to explode plus I'm having menstrual cramps. (LOL, too much info).  I just feel soooooooo exhausted! I wasn't able to rest during the  weekend because I did alot of errands here and there. 

(pic credit: google)

So here I am, sick and reeking of Vicks and efficascent oil! :) Hehehe.  I feel like my whole body's in pain so what I did earlier was I splashed efficascent oil all over my body. Ginawa kong lotion. HAHAHAH! Sarap! I smell like a hawt lola! Weet weew. 

Since I have plenty of downtime today, I used that as an opportunity to start wrapping some of my Christmas presents. And by wrapping I mean putting them inside the gift pouch. LOL! Hindi kase ko marunong mag giftwrap. Good thing I saw these plastic gift boxes. Wala kase talaga kong ka-art art sa katawan. 

Yehey! At least kahit absent ako today, productive pa rin kahit papano. Hahaha!  I just wish I'll feel alot better by tomorrow so I can go back to work. I hate skipping work because the load piles up too fast even if I'm only gone for a day. Aguy!

And because I was just home all day, I did nothing but rest and watch news on TV.  

Maybe I just don't have a compassionate heart pero ndi talaga ko naaawa sa kanya kanina when I saw her on TV. Hay life.

Grabe, it's been 3 weeks since I last posted. I can already see cobwebs forming on my blog. Hahaha! 

So, what have you guys been up to recently?

Sick (in the head),

So this is how a "Barker" feels like....

What is a "Barker"?

Here's what Wikipedia has to say ---

A barker is a person who attempts to attract patrons to entertainment events, such as a circus or funfair, by exhorting passing public,^[1] describing attractions of show and emphasizing variety, novelty, beauty, or some other feature believed to incite listeners to attend entertainment.

The pinoy-version of a "Barker" is one who stations himself near where the public utility vehicles are (ie jeepneys and buses) and calls the attention of passengers. Yung mga tipong sisigaw ng "Kyaaaaaaaaaaappppooooooooooooo" or "Kuuubbbbaaaawwww" or "Onting usog dyan, sampu-an yan!" Ganyan. Hehe.

So what does that have to do with me? Pinasok ko na rin ba ang pagbabarker? HAHAHAHAHA! Well, not really.... but I now understand how a barker feels like after a longggggggg day of shouting and yelling and vocal chords-stretching. Haha.

Read on.

I hosted a party at the Fort earlier this afternoon.  The party was at 3pm but I was there an hour early because I need to prepare all the stuff that I need to use.

 It was a Hello Kitty-themed party but I didn't have anything pink in my closet and I cannot grow whiskers overnight (LOL) so I opted to wear something lace-y and girly.

Everything was alright except for the sound system.  The music was sucky and the microphone was not functioning!!!!!!!!! One of my pet-peeves as a host is when I am not given a good sound system.  It's easier to get your message across when you're clearly heard by the crowd, especially when majority of the crowd's composed of 6-years-old kids with short attention spans. Hahahahaha!

But of course the show must go on. There are people who were 'born with a silver spoon', and there are those who were 'born with a built-in microphone'.  Fortunately (or unfortunately? haha), I belong to the latter.

Parang lahat ng litid ko lumabas this afternoon! Hahahahaha! I had to keep my voice loud and clear and fun to get everyone's attention. Kalowka. But it was still an awesome party despite the slight technical booboos! The kids and adults alike had so much fun especially when I asked them to play musical chairs! Hahaha.

But seriously, it was a bit stressful to shout for a couple of hours straight.  Now I totally get how barkers feel like after a long day of work... Or wives who scream endlessly at their philandering husbands.... Or football fans who cheer and yell for their team during Super Bowl... Or bosses who scream because they've been given the wrong report... LOL! Nakakapagod sumigaw, pramis. Hehe.

I'm wishing you all a very serene, yell-free Sunday! :) Hehehe!

Walang Labada si Inday

I've been praying for a quiet and relaxing weekend for quite sometime now but rest has become very elusive. School, work and back to back hosting rakets have eaten so much of my weekends. But today, God has finally given me a free dayyyyyy!!!!!! Yeheyyyyyyyyy! One whole day where I can just stay home, wear my ratty pambahay and just stay in bed.

I started my day early because I'm so excited to do nothing for one whole day! Hahahahaha! I had dumplings, lumpia and rice for breakfast. IN BED! While alternately watching recent episodes of Gossip Girl, Grey's Anatomy, Dexter, Modern Family and BBC docus. 

A friend called me earlier today asking if I want to go out but I declined because free days like this are so hard to come by so I have to make it worth while. Hehehehhehehe! I. WILL. JUST. STAY. IN. BED. THE. WHOLE. DAY. Ang saya sabihin paulit ulit. Hahahahahaha!

I bought a whole roll of cake, lots of chips and cookies and I'm planning to finish them all IN BED. Hehehe! Ang sarap ulit-ulitin pramis. :) While most of my friends long for a weekend at the beach, or out in the malls, ako satisfied nako to be given one whole day to just stay in and do whatever! Life's simple pleasures. =)

I have a birthday party to host tomorrow at the Fort so i'll make the most out of my free day today! Yeyyyy!

I hope you guys get a dose of relaxation as well! Mwah! Have to cut this short because MY BED IS WAITING FOR ME! Yehey! Hahahahahaha.

Demonyo Ka!

Can't think of a good title. Sorry, hehe.

I've had a very busy week at work. I was counting the days till the weekend because I cannot wait to jump in bed to just sleep and vegetate! But of course, my weekend didn't go as planned because I had a hosting raket last night. Hehe.

I was really tired and sluggish because I barely had enough sleep this week. Thankfully, my friend drove me all the way to Ayala Alabang. I was able to take a nap on the way to the party.

The party was set at 6pm but I was there by 4:30 to help set the place up.

I placed little skulls and skeletons in the garden for my Treasure Hunt game! Had to do it before the guests arrive of course. Sneaky! :)

The windows were covered in black poster paper and most of the bulbs inside the house were changed to red and orange. I changed into my halloween costume and by 6pm, everything was all set.

Red devil's horn + skulls and chain + gold studded booties = Halloween garb

It was such a fun event because the kids and adults alike came in costume! Kakaaliwwww!

Merong Yoko Ono and John Lennon, Angry Birds, Spiderman, Batman, Krueger, Cleopatra, Hulk, Cow at kung ano ano pa!  My client's peg last night was 'Katy Perry'... sssoooo cute!

I taught basic dance steps to the kids and when they were already familiar with the steps, I asked the parents to watch us perform. Tuwang-tuwa naman sila. Hehehe. Feeling ko dancer ako nung past life ko, hahaha. (ambisyosa)

The kids got hungry after the dance so we paused for a short break. Afterwards, we started playing Halloween party games!

It was a very fun Halloween party!

It was such a long night that I fell asleep as soon as I got home! Whew!

At least I still have the rest of Sunday to sleep and relax! Yehey!


How'd your weekend go?

Ayan Kase

Our office sends out email alerts everytime there is a storm that's coming to the country.  I was well aware that a storm was coming yesterday so when I received a call from a client asking me to host a Luau Party, I begged off. Aside from that, I wasn't really feeling well. But they were very persistent so I ended up saying yes. Waaaaah!

I was at The Fort yesterday despite the storm.  It was a good thing that the party was held at the 28th floor so I had no reason to get paranoid about getting flooded.

Grass skirts and garlands were given at the entrance. And because it was a Luau party, it was mandatory that I teach the girls how to do the hula. (I sucked by the way, hahahaha!)

But I really did an awesome job in teaching them how to do the Hawaiian dance. 

And I taught them how to do arts and crafts as well. It was super fun!

When I got home, may lagnat na ko. Maybe because I was tired and I got rained on a little. Hayyyyyy!!!!

Next Up: Someone got me to organize a Bridal Shower. Kaaliw. Almost everything's set na except for the strippers! LOL. May kilala kayo? Hahahaha.

Have an awesome weekend everyone!

Kwentong Barbero

When I get extremely sad and frustrated, the first thing I want to do is go to the salon and get a haircut.  Maybe because it's my way of (figuratively) cutting the bad omen that's happening in my life. There were a few times where I had my hair cut just for the sake of.  But most of the time, it was because I was going through a bad phase and I felt like I wanted to cut the bad streak.

I had my hair chopped off last year. I was going through some shitty times and I want to start anew.  So what better way to do it than to start with a new look, right?

So here I was Christmas of last year with my short hair.  To me, a haircut is more than just a haircut.  It is my way of cutting ties with the bad things that's holding me down.  It is my way of disconnecting.  It is my way of starting anew.  Of seeing things in a different light.  It is my way of starting fresh.

I learned to focus on the things that truly matter. I reconnected with people who really care. I focused on my work. I focused on my family.  And everything feels lighter and better now.

I was brushing my hair in front of the mirror the other day and it just dawned on me how long my hair is now compared to what it was 9 months ago.  I feel blessed that life hasn't given me reasons to cut my hair anew. Hehehe.

I wish you all a happy week ahead!
