Breakfast at Peggy's.....

THURSDAY. I had a pretty exhausting weekend to say the least. My late-night film viewing has always been at the top of my list which made me waked up a little too late. I was at my ptj for 4hrs, then window shop with chin and abby at citimax for an hour. I spent the rest of my Thursday at pegs little dungeon with Margaret, or, baleleng at humabol pa si dugong around 4am galing daw ng swimming.

There’s nothing so amazing more than spending time with them, it’s like we could hardly even notice how the hours fly by. Our conversation could never end. There’s always something to talk about and laugh about. Baleleng was a revelation. Her stories were inspirational; it had us begging for more and she just keeps going.

Also, I had the chance to watch the bb. Pilipinas ‘08 coronation night. It was ok; we actually had fun watching the ladies strut their stuff especially during the qa segment of the show. Janina SM, this girl is special. She’s obviously the one to watch at MW 08 this November, believe me she will rock MW. LoL. We had breakfast at 5am, which happens to be my first time eating that early, ever. Btw, napuyat lng naman kaming lahat, for a good cause naman (good cause daw oh!). If there are drugs that could obliterate my being puyat, then I would take them. Hehe!

FRIDAY. Baleleng and I went home around 6am, Friday. Slept for 5 hrs then attend my regular class at Comsofil from 1-5pm. So far, I have learned something new again at my PCA & MSA class, I might wanna put it into practice. Somehow, this goes directly at my “to do” list for the holidays.

But, the most interesting part yesterday was listening to Britney’s new single “Womanizer”. I had chills, I promised. I played it many times, over and over again. It has a very catchy tune. Believe me, the world will like it. Wait till jive releases the cd on Dec. 2 the same day as Britney’s birthday. After days of mystery waiting for the single to come out, finally it’s over. Yay! This is gonna be humungous. Watch out!

Around 630pm yesterday, just an hour and a half after my class at comsofil, we went to cheer Elena’s guy S at this basketball tournament. Mark-it (ate ko) was there, who’s actually fresh from Jeddah and also Jun, Poch, Jam & Benj. I actually miss going out with them.

Then it’s time off for me.

Today looks like it’s another day another cycle here gone back tomorrow gone again.

P.S. I was watching ANTM last night and Isis has been eliminated at the show. Her performance gets weaker and weaker each week and the judges had nothing else to do but boot her out.

Eid AlFitr Holiday....

Four more days to go then the Eid Alfitr holidays starts, 29 Sept – 6 Oct to be exact. I have not even plan on what to do with this 7 days. I remember last year, Jam and I spent the holiday in AlKhobar initially, then with a few more friends like Pegs, Alona and Chin. Time fly by really fast, it’s been a year. I could only remember how much fun we had that time. We would spend the whole night roaming around the city, exploring sites like the KF Causeway – Bahrain Bridge, Corniche, and many more picture-ready sites. Sometimes we would just stay in our room the whole night spending our time laughing to our own stories. Expect the worst extreme kwentos you could ever hear of from beauty pageants, to men, sex and a lot more intriguing, controversial and censored stories.

Like what I said, I have no plans just yet on what to do next week, although Pegs is trying to convince me to visit AlKhobar again. He’s actually planning on spending a day in Bahrain and the rest in AlKhobar. Let’s just see what happens. I might accept the invite. But if I were to go anywhere in the Kingdom right now, I’d choose Jeddah. Jeddah would be fun and it’s gonna be my first time if ever. New place, new faces, sounds really fun isn’t it.

This is actually off the topic, but I just want to say that I had fun watching “The Jane Austen Book Club” yesterday. It’s one of the best films I have ever watched. “Definitely, Maybe” made me cry though. I highly recommend you watch the movie then you’d know. Miss J and Chin, whatcha waiting, whatcha waiting forrrrr. Next stop, stardust.

My eyes are glued....

Its TV series season in the US once again. As a fanatic, I have been overly excited watching every single season premiere of my long list of favorites. This month of September, avid followers of the many series airing its premiere episode converge in one place, the cyberspace. Every single one of them errr us go gaga digging the internet looking for the best quality of audio/video of it. It’s like they could never miss a thing, because if they do, then it’s not gonna be as exciting watching each and every single episode of them. Potatoes are better served hot, right?

A lot of other websites where people like us meet somehow. We may never know each other in person, but deep down inside us, we do, we actually have a little something in common.

Week after week, night after night, I have been crazy downloading all my favorite series beginning with;

OTH-S6, my all-time-favorite, then there’s GG-S2, which made Mark-it get hooked with the series already like the millions of other girls out there. Not to forget PB-S4 which up until now keeps my heart pumpin’ by just watching Wentworth do some action scene. What about the newbie 90210-S1? I’m trying to actually like the show; I really hope I would by watching a few more episodes. The characters of the show somehow had potential. So let’s see what happens. But I couldn’t just leave Tyra behind, ANTM kick ass, esp. cycle 11 where Isis, the natural born-male contestant showed some kick-ass couture poses which made the judges liked him even more. U go gurl, the G community is rooting for you! Smallville_S8 definitely had the best season premiere which I had the chance to watch last night.

Every season, TV series gets better and better plots and I couldn't help my eyes but get glued in my computer screen all night, anticipating every single episode every week. I would have to change to a bigger monitor. Bigger is better for my aging eyes. LOL.

Watching them is definitely one of the highlights of my weekend. Hopefully I'd get more seeds the next time I would download the next episode. Then I'd get better!

From Persia to Arabia...

The start of my weekend was pretty exciting. Chin invited me and pegs to be at their company’s sahoor summer outing. I have posted a few pix of the event below, and as you can see we had fun. We got to play volleyball and a little of football. For the first time ever, I have tried smokin’ shisha and it taste good, and finally, we got to show-off who we are for the most part. It’s so funny how they reacted at us.

But the luckiest person that night was Alona, winning 32” lcd sony bravia tv during the raffle segment. Alona’s reaction??? As if she had just won the Miss Universe title by the way she opened her mouth widely like most Miss Universe’s. LOL. Congrats gurly, u seem lucky having kuya Gary in your life. Just keep your relationship on fire, alright! That’s the secret.

Anyway, I have spent my Thursday mostly keeping fresh at chin’s room and working at my ptj that night and head back home. Friday, I did my laundry in the morning and I was at COMSOFIL for my regular class on PCA and MSA afterwards. In the evening, I did some stuff in my room and organize my closet a little.

Other than that, there’s nothing really much to say. Now I’m back to work for another week, and the week after this, then it’s the 1-wk eid vacation everyone had been waiting.

Happy B-day Raf & Pegs...

It’s so funny that I mentioned in my last post about how boring my weekend could have been without anything to look forward to except for myself. I was wrong! I was completely wrong!

Early pm last Thursday I got a call from Allain inviting me to a birthday party his friend is celebrating. Instantly, I said yes. Who am I to say no? Beside, it’s been a while since the rest of us bonded. And last Thursday was our chance to get together again. We’re actually in full force. Pegs was there, Chin, Margaret and this new recruit Or.

We all had fun celebrating Allain’s guy Raf bday until wee hours in the morning. Or’s kwento made us all laugh like we never did before. It added more flavor to the 24waistline of Or’s. He had so many kwentos that I have never actually heard before like the rest of us.

I made a few friends, Raymond, Charlie etc. I couldn’t remember all their names, maybe by face, yes! I wasn’t actually paying attention and I’m bad at remembering names, sorry! But they’re all good as host, not to mention very accommodating.

Anyway, the food was spectacular, thank you Raffy. I was actually being chunky, I ate a lot. My appetite for eating is back and I like it. I won’t mine if I’ll add a few more lbs really; it’s about time I’ll get back to being weighty (word ba ito?) again. Not the fat fat, but the 65kg fat that I used to be.

Anyway, all along I thought that I would be stack alone with myself during weekends which somehow I was for a while now. But hell no!

Hey, don’t call this a comeback, ok!

Xo,

P.S.
It’s Pegs bday last Sunday. Happy Birthday Pegs! God Bless you sistah!

A battleground weekend...

Today is Wednesday and it only mean one thing, its weekend. I'm a weekend kind of person. I love weekends. It's the best time of the week and it's my time of convalescence. I'd like to believe that everyone in the ME is looking forward to it.

So far my weekend has never been the same, it's like there's no more party at ranco, etc. My weekend has always been big, there's always something to look forward to. Right now, its kind of boring knowing that nothing special is going to happen, no party to plan and like what outfit to wear, who's gonna attend the party or anything. These things make it more exciting and it gets me going everytime wednesdays approaches. This time it's a totally different story. No more everything. No nothing. It's like I'm in a completely different world unknown.

If I hadn't had ptj and comsofil for Thursdays and Fridays for the whole 3 months, then I'm gonna tell u to shoot me, pointe blank. Lolz. Nway, my Thursdays and Fridays are mostly for myself now, as well as my ptj for Thursdays and comsofil for Fridays. Sometimes I bond with my p-gurl friends. It's ok to laugh with them after a whole week of work work work. It's a relief really. It gives me a feeling that I belong and that is what makes it even more important.

On the contrary, I would say weekdays are equally worthy. This is the time where I work my butt off, day and night. It's tiring but it's ok. I've been doing this for like forever already. There's no room for complaining. I just have to deal with it and roll with the punches, right??

Nway, these are the highlights of my week so far, good or bad.

Queen B winning big at the VMAs 2008 - Moonmen 1, 2, 3, finally!
The other Queen B and King B's love quarrels - a gurly feeling! Duh!
Missin' RL - having the time of his life at the PI
My boss's erratic behavior - Ramadan Syndrome
A bugger housemate - just be considerate for once?
Siesta galore at my ptj - the mouse will play while the cat is away
Sis D's heart enlargement issue - a 2nd opinion is recommended
Chin broke the good news - congratulations sistah, u deserved it
Finally,
Sistah J, as a juror - What's it like to be one J??

So this is it, my all historic weekend to remember. These changes every week, though!

Have a happy weekend to me!

Britney Wins Big at the 2008 MTV VMAs

The pop princess has been restored to the royal house!

A sparkling Britney Spears took home three "moon men" at Sunday night's Video Music Awards -- proving that her reign in the music world is far from over -- by nabbing honors for:

Best Female Video

Best Pop Video and

Best Video of the Year for her hit, "Piece of Me."

Just seven months ago, she was hospitalized with a psychiatric disorder, and her father became her conservator. A shocked Spears, who won her first MTV VMA award ever last night after 16 nominations, said, "I'm speechless. Oh, my goodness, thank you! I first wanna thank God for blessing me like this, and my family -- my two beautiful boys for inspiring me everyday."

Britney's comeback was in full swing at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards as she wowed the crowd in an impeccable silver frock, strappy heels, and a smile.

Congrats brit brit!!!!!
