What is your favorite kind of pie?

Not much of a pie lover. No faves.

Soup

Name something that made you smile this week.

Not just smile but grin a really big grin --- something my aunt gave me before she left for the states. [Major thanks tita prency!!!]

Salad

What do you do to cool off when the weather is hot and humid?

Take a shower. Would've loved to jump into a pool though, but we don't have one.

Main Course

You receive $1,000 in the mail with a letter that says you can only use the money to redecorate one room in your home. Which room do you pick, and what do you buy to spruce it up?

Our kitchen. I'd rebuild it. Most of the walls and the ceiling are in really bad shape.

Dessert

Fill in the blank: My boyf says for me to stop smoking, but I still do, promise before the year ends, I will!

happy birthday to 2 of my best friends!

Two of my dear friends are both LEOs. Their birthdays are a little more than a week apart. I miss both of them way too much already. We're all in the same country and could easily see each other, but probably due to our busy lives, we don't get to do that often. Actually, we don't get together at all lately. The last time I saw them both was during Nina's 1st birthday party (she's Redj's tiny one). I always try to set up a date so we could at least have a meal or something, but alas, our schedules don't match... I hope we could get together more. It's frustrating actually, when I think of it... It's as if we're in different countries --- the way we don't get to see each other. I miss the days in college, where we always spend our free times together (including my cousin Dada). Most of the time we sleep at Redj and Rhods' apartment.

I love it that we've kept in touch with each other. But I certainly regret that we don't see each other more. What we mostly do now is send each other text messages to remind each other that we're still around... Haay... I miss them both so much. To Redj and Rhods ---- HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I wish (am still wishing) that we could at least go out to celebrate your birthdays!

die hard 4.0

the weekend flew by again... spent saturday lazing around the house and watching dvds (again!)... sunday --- spent it with my family - my 2 big brothers --- kujules and kuya jayvee, my mom and i all went to sm lipa city and watched die hard 4.0... when i invited kuya jayvee to join us, he didn't wanna go with us at first, he was saying that i was just wasting my money in bringing him along (he can't see)... but i told him: he watches tv (listens to it, actually) so it's just like that but in a bigger venue and louder sound... so after lunch, all four of us went... (my older brother - keats, was out of town, and my dad... sad to say, he couldn't go to the movies anymore)

the movie, as expected, was action packed... i just hope the other moviegoers weren't bothered with me, telling my disabled brother, what was happening on the big screen (although i wasn't doing it the whole time)...

after the movie, we went to the supermarket and bought some stuff then had dinner at H cafe... the food was great... what a nice ending to a nice day!

thanks for lunch grant!

my immediate boss isn't around today, she's down with fever that's why i'm manning the "ship"... earlier today our plant manager came by my station and asked me how my weekend went... i told him and then after a while he left... at around 10am though, he came back and asked me if i wanted to eat out (we only have a 30-minute lunchbreak so we almost never eat out during lunch hour---make that lunch half hour--- hehe) --- i immediately asked if it was on him and he said yes... so i said i'd love to go with him (and my other officemates)...

we ate at north park - canlubang --- about 5 mins away from my office... but the funny thing was... everything we wanted to order they were saying: "i'm sorry but it's not available"... grant (that's my aussie plant manager) was saying we should ask the manager what their mission statement was (haha)... and that we should demand for free dessert!

there were 10 of us there and we really had a sumptious meal... wish i'd taken photos though... one officemate even commented that it was the first time that we had lunch-out that all the plates were emptied... that we didn't bring home any leftovers... i guess all of us were really very hungry...

i'd like to thank grant for that wonderful lunch... hope that won't be the last one! (i think that lunch was a bad idea --- the majrsleepyhead's having another attack----arrrggghhh)

transformers in a crowded cinema

i watched transformers yesterday with my 'antuken'... the movie was nice but the cinema wasn't... there were just too many people inside it... we also had to sit about 5 rows from the front (what a drag)... major booboo was the slippers i was wearing chose to bust its strap the moment i got off the car... good thing the movie was nice... me and my antuken had a good laugh at it... although it was a lot different from the transformers i grew up with... i remember when i was a kid, i used to watch the cartoons with my big brothers... after that, we had japanese food for dinner... i ordered tempura while my antuken had a bento box of pork something (not sure what it was, it sure didn't taste like teriyaki but it looks like that)... then we went home after that...

we talked for about two hours before he left to go home (actually i slept while he watched and i would wake and we'd talk, then i fell asleep again)--- i had an early day at work today...
