This is Me

Life can be stressful and that we need to relax sometimes. Every people have their own way of relaxation. Some have massages, some go to the beach (away from the crowded place) and some watch live performances of their favourite singer or band.

If music relaxes your soul, you can watch and buy radiohead tickets and roger waters tickets for their upcoming concert. But if you want to watch a “dramatic mix of circus art and street entertainment”( as they call it), then you can watch and buy cirque du soleil ticketsinstead. Tickets are available for all cities.

I worked as Technical Support tech in Teleperformance I met a lot of friends there. One of the friends I met there is James Leyte.

I am so proud of him because he is one of the finalists in The First Philippine Popular Music Festival. Philpop is a song writing competition open to all amateur and professional composers who are Filipino or of a Filipino descent. And out of 3000 song entries- he was chosen to be part of the final 14. Not to mention - the entries weren't from the Philippines itself but around the world such as Malaysia, France, UK, HK and Canada.

His entry is entitled "Brown". You can vote for his song by texting P8 and send it to 2929. The most highest number of text votes by July 12 will be given the People's Choice award with 200,000Php. The awarding ceremony will be on July 14 at the Philippine International Convention Center.

Way to go James!! Proficiat!!

It's been ages since i was transferred to night shift. and mind you im really struggling but i get used to it. haha!

anyway, one of the things i missed when i was in earlier shift is going to a bar with friends. i cant remember when i last do it because i was in night shift. but everytime ruthie and I went there- we always meet new friends. hays! I miss Palladium. It was located in Makati- near new world hotel and Greenbelt 3.

I wish to go there one of these days. hays!! i wish to be in the earlier shift so i can do things like before..hehe :)

I was a frustrated mountaineering. I like to climb mountains. I like it since i was in College but was not able to fulfill it since my father told me to finish my studies first.

I have a chance to climb Mt. Pulag last year and this year with some of my friends but due to busy schedule, I was not able to join them.

This June, I am determined to climb the Mt. Pulag. It is the 3rd highest Mountain in the Philippines. It is 2,922 ft above sea level.

To climb a mountain isn't easy. You need to have proper gear for that. In preparation of my climb, I bought a new bag made especially for activities like that. I bought a Sandugo 35L bag. It has a lot of pockets- in where you can put a lot of your things, it has a rain coat- just in case it rains while you climb and it is not easy to break.





Im going to buy a tent soon just before my climb. Im planning to climb Mt. Pulag this coming Jun24-25. Well not sure about it yet. I will still inquire witht the professionals. Wish me luck :)

When I was in HS, i am so addicted with boybands. One of my favorites is Backstreetboys. They are so popular way way back because of their songs. The band is consists of five guys namely Nick Carter, Brian Littrell, Howie Dorough, AJ Mclean and Kevin Richardson. Wow!! im impressed - i still know their names. haha!

I love all of their songs and all of them are my favorites. I remember before, i skip school just to watch MTV for their new music video. Also, I remember that I cried so hard when my mom break the very first tape of backstreetboys album i bought. You can also hear all the people singing "quit playing games with my heart" and äs long as you love me" everywhere.

But time flies so fast and heard that they disbanded the group. They go on their separate ways. Some get married and some still pursue their career in music.

But again- since music is their life - they regroup and record songs again. Earlier while my brother and I are talking - he asked me if i heard that they will be having concert here in manila - i said no. He told me that they will and it will be on June 3 back to back New kids on the block and the venue of the concert is in Mall of sia concert ground.

I love to see them perform. However, i have a lot of things to do plus - I need to save my money as i plan to resign. Oh well - there still next time. I just hope that their concert will be a hit :)

You can listen to As long as you love me song by clicking on the link. Enjoy listening!

I have been thinking of resigning from my current work. There are many reasons why i want to do that and I dont like to enumerate them all here. I also been receiving a lot of text messages from different companies to take an exam to them for a different position. I am still weighing the possibilities. I'm also thinking hard before deciding. On whatever decision I'l make - I wish that it would be for the best of my career.

We meet new friends when we were in school. Everyone says that those people you have met during your college days will be your best friends. Its true for me as I met my kosa's during those days. Even though we didn't see each other more often, we make sure to communicate and say Hello's to each other.

My kosas never let me down. We may have misunderstandings, but its ok we are matured enough to handle it. ahihi.. I miss my kosas. I miss those days when we are still in college! During those days, life is much easier.

Well after all these years, here we are - still intact and supports each other :)

weee! i cant expalin how I feel right now. yesterday and the other day im so sad and in tears because my dog is sick. He is not in the mood. During the past days, I always prepare food for my dog and he didnt want to eat it. I tried it again now. I put some egg and some beef soup with my dog's rice (as he didnt want to eat dog food) and gave it to him. I thought he will just eat the egs but to my surprise he eats it all. I am so happy. Well, I guess he is just hungry. He maynot be as active as before but this is a good start. I so love my dog!

Do you love movies? I do. However, I can't always watch them in the movie house. I always buy DVD's or cd's or ask a copy of my favorite movies. Its my collection.

I got bored earlier so I browse my netbook and found out that i have a copy of "how to lose a guy in ten days". The movie itself is entertaining. It's a romantic comedy flick. i love the artists too. The movie makes me think, can you really lose a guy in ten days? or can you tell if you love the person in ten days??? All i can say, i love my bf so much and I woudn't do things to hurt him because i don't want to lose him.

I love dogs and I have one. His name is Boknoy. He was given to my mom by her friend. Boknoy is what you called "askal" or dog that doesnt have a bread. But hey, every dog has a breed- i just don't know what is my dog's breed. Anyway, boknoy is big, brwon dog. He has beautiful fur. He is lively and sometimes naughty. If my brother and I talk and we didnt include him- he will bark and bark until you get pissed of it. hehe.. but he is a nice dog. he is very active dog until one day- he is super lazy and don't want to eat. i miss my active dog. I dont know what to do. im so sad about what is happening to him. I went to the vet without my dog ( as i mention my dog is big) and i told the doctor that my dog is lazy and dont want to eat. i also notice that he has pus in his penis and when he poo - it seems like there is pus too. So i told the vet doc about it and he told me to take the dog to him as there might be some infections with my dog and needs to be cure immediately. HOwever, i dont have money yet. I can have my money on the 30th of this month and so- i wish and i pray that my dog can hang on there until i have money. I bought him some vitamins and a powder food supplement like med. This powder is dissolve in a water and thats what i gave him to drink. i hope it helps until May 30. so please, pray for my dog. I love my dog so much and i want to see him active again.

I am so blessed that i have a good job with good pay ( ehem!!) because of this I am able to go places.

One of my favorite destinations is Hongkong. I so love this country. The country is small but it is clean and beautiful not to mention its cold too.

It was funny though and i can't help to smile or laugh everytime I remember my experience on my departure date. Prior to my departure, i keep on thinking( it took me 1 whole day) to decide wether I want to pursue my trip or not. I was alone. Its my gift to my self after my hard work. I need a break!! hahaha!

Oh well, going back, my departure time is 5:40 in the morning of May 14, 2010. 1 day prior to that date,my things arent packed yet. Around 12am of May 14, I decided to pack my things and headed to the airport. I just texted my parents and my brother that im on my way to the airport to go to HK. They were shocked! Yes, you read it right, they were shocked because they didnt know about my trip until that time. They can't do anything about it so they just told me to take care.

I reached the airport 4:45am. I immediately go to the counter to board. The lady gave me my boarding pass but told me to pay the travel tax that costs 1650Php that time. The line for travel tax is horrible. it was too long. Keep in mind that my flight is 5:40 am and im still waiting for my turn to pay the travel tax around 5am. The lady from the counter helped me get out of there so after that, i paid the terminal fee 750php (it's 550Php now )and went ahead to the immigration. The officer asks a lot of questions when a guy keeps on shouting "Passengers going to HK, please go to the gate immediately". So i told the officer to make it quick - im the last passenger to board the plane. i ran to the gate without my shoes on because after the immigration- they will scan all of your things, will ask to remove your shoes , belts etc. Wheeew! that was close.. hahaha! the plane almost left me.. hahaha! It was a 2 hour flight. I reached HK around 8am. The airport is nice, big and clean. I went to the rest room first because I need to pee, when im done this was all i saw. I am alone. I dont know where to go. I keep on asking myself- how can i get out of this airport???

Oh well i manage to get out of it because i followed those businessmen. But when I see that they're waiting for a train, i was like- äm I in the right direction??? but yeas- im in the right direction. I managed to go to the immigration, pass it and when Im about to get out of the airport - the officer call me and told me to follow them. I was wondering why. He asked if Im alone- they get my luggage - and hold my passport. They check my bag if I have drugs with me. They told me that its part of their security check since there are lots of Filipino Drug Mugul who goes to their country.

The good thing about the HK airport??? You can choose your transportation once you get out of it. They have trains and busses. I took the train going to Kowloon, and then ride the bus going to Tsim tsa Tsui. I stayed in one of the hostels there, its called Hopp In. Hop Inn is located in hankow street in tsim sha tsui. You can visit their website by clicking this link Hop Inn. It was also chosen as the Travelers' Choice 2012 Winner by Trip advisor as one of the trendiest hostel in China division. The owner and the staff of the hostel is very nice and accomodating.

What I did in HK? I sleep. hahaha! Just kidding. I went to places and walked a lot. The bad thing about my trip??? i don't have my camera with me. But i managed to took some photos using my mobile phone. here are some pictures:









My over all stay in HK was wonderful.Even though I am alone during that time, still I enjoyed my stay. I will go back there for sure. It's just that - I don't know when. :P

Wow! lets try this again. I'll start with my coron trip.

We've been planning this trip way way back 2009 and we pursue it last Feb 2010. I am with my friends Apple and Arlene.

This would be my first trip with them so i am very excited.

After Apple's shift, we waited for AJ in the office before going to the airport. I believe that our departure time was 10pm- we had 1 hour flight so we landed around 11pm in Busuanga Airport.We ride a van from the airport to the Coron Village Lodge - it is one of the famous lodge in the place. We rented it 2700 for 3 nights.

Anyway, our first agenda was to go to AJ's friend house name Razell. We ate lunch there. My most favorite part was eating lobster. Its my favorite. after that - we trekked to Mt. Tapyas. It has 750 + steps and believed me, its not easy to go up there. My legs were trembling and im gasping my breath. Good thing, we went to Maquinit hot spring after. The hot spring has one big square like container with overflowing hot water, with 2 circle like container inside that square- the water inside those circles are hotter compared to the ones in the square. It feels so good to be dip in hot water after the not so easy trek.

We spend our second day in island hoping. We went to Siete Picados - its like a big aquarium in where you can see different fishes, Kayangan lake - the calm but seems scary lake- you can see shripms here and small swordfishes, Twin Lagoon - where salt and fresh water meet - and because of the this the water becomes blurred. We went to different beaches as well to relax and swim. All i remembered was, I am so tired during our second day that resulted me to sleep early.

Our 3rd day is packing day. This is our time to leave the place and go back to our real world. but before we headed to the airport - Razell goes to our room and gave us souvenirs. That girl is really sweet. She even gave us cooked lobsters.

We didn't explore the place much as we dont have time. So we promised that we will be back there. - As soon as we have time and money to spent- :)

wow! i can't believe that this blog has page rank 1 again. im inspired now to continue blogging. ahihi :)

its been a while since i last visited my blog. I was so busy and I cant find time to check on this. Good thing I am not so busy right now that is why i can update my blog. :)

I love watching telenovelas. Almost all of it has a scene where in they drink soju in a restaurant. I thought its like a beer but it is not. My friend said that it has less alcohol content since it is made from rice. In short i tried drinking it. But hey- im wrong! it taste like vodka for me and I got dizzy after. I love vodka so I love soju. It just nice that there's a korean store near our work. I can always buy anytime i want! evil laugh! bwahahaha!
