Got my very own gorgeous baby!
A Dell Inspiron Centrino Duo..

Would have liked for it to be all white
but I like it as it is...:)

will try to post it's portrait later..;)

Kevin of AI

Ever since Gideon was eliminated,
i've been ranting and griping
on the fact that Kevin was able
to stay in the contest.

Whenever AI was the topic,
I have always been expressive
on my opinions with Kevin,
letting everyone know just
what I think of him and
his "over-staying" in AI.

When he sang "when i fall in love"
last wednesday
(we have a 12-hr delayed telecast)
I have been complaining
on the way he sang it.
He was close to belting it out
and I didnt feel like "falling in love"
which you ought to
when you hear the song.

Come eliminations night however,
and as he got eliminated,
I didnt feel as elated
as I thought I would be.
Perhaps it was the mood I was in.

And, when he sang the first note,
my nose started twitching
and I couldnt stop my eyes
from watering nor
can I control tears
from overflowing thereafter.

Maybe it was because
of the way he sang it.
Or maybe,
the song just hit home.

Maid of Honor

Erlita's wedding's been moved to July,
a month short of my homeleave.
too bad....

Anyways, her entourage is quite unique.
She wont be having a Maid of Honor.
This is despite the fact that she has a sister,
her one and only sibling.
She wouldn't be having one coz,
as she says,
there can only be one Maid of Honor.

Me.

Hehehe..
Sorry I can't be there but then,
Thanks Let!
=)

Opposites Attract?

whenever i get to thinking about it,
it always amazes me how ALL
my close friends are so
practical-minded and level-headed
while im, well, the complete,
exact emotional opposite.
Not that i'm complaining.
It gives me the balance I need, really.

Little Tidbits

Im now reading an epic novel and it seems quite interesting,
although there are still a lot of stuff i dont know
as it is a sequel im reading.

This isnt the magical fantasy book ive been reading earlier.
Ive ditched that one already as the heroine was infuriating.
(don't ask me about it).

Anyways, the epic novel im reading tells of beautiful, ageless-faced Aes Sedai.
And that to become a full pledged Aes Sedai,
they must be able to control their emotions and what they feel,
inward and outward. Through the training they have,
they can psyche themselves to not feel the wintry cold,
to show grace under pressure and to not fall in love...
Interesting ne?

I have also learned of the ko'di which one of the famous warriors have been using.
From what i gather, it's like super-advanced yoga (if there ever is one).
With ko'di, you can envelope yourself in its "force field"
and thereby cut yourself from extreme cold and from other prowerful feelings like
anger. As was said, going to battle when angry is ultimate foolishness
as it makes one go rash with decisions and thereby is tantamount to
digging your own grave.

I'm just on the 32nd page actually (hehe) but ive been learning a lot,
even chancing upon really meaningful food-for-thoughts
(im weird alright..finding lines to internalize when im just reading an epic..hehe)

Imagination?

The whole day, i've been hearing someone calling my name behind my back.
It always has the same whispery voice,
always has the same urgency,
always has the same modulation.

And when I turn around,
there was always no one there but jonathan
who is nevertheless bent on whatever it was he was doing.
Anyways, the voice is that of a woman
so it couldn't be Jonathan if ever he would call me.

YIKES!might be my imaginary friend come to haunt me?hehe..

I feel so bloated now, constipated.
I try to recall what i ate
that could have triggered this stomach problem
but I can only remember eating mentos
before I started having this.
So bloated, i feel like gagging (pardon me..hehe).

Hopefully, I can go home early today and curl in bed and will for this stomachache to be gone.

MH to Weddings

Three of my closest friends are going to tie the knot this year.
Erlita in May, Leah (that would include Chito as i was close to him too)
inOctober and Paige in December.

But alas, because of my assignment here
and the complication of my DOST scholarship,
I couldnt attend the May and October weddings,
much to the chagrin of myfriends..=(
MH!!pfft!

I have warned Erlita about this already and now,
she's concocting schemes on howI could
still somehow have a big part in her wedding
although I am not physically present
(though for now, I have absolutely no idea how is that possible).

Leah and Chito though, threatened me
I'd be estranged from them
if I wont attend.hahaha!
(actually Erlita warned me the same earlier too..)
They've been looking forward to us singing "Afraid for Love to Fade"...=)
This brought back memories indeed as it was our "theme song" then,
Making me remember our singing and dancing to the songs' rythmn
as we were doing ChE experiments
(we received an earful though from our professor then..hahaha).

Whew!My close friends are now on the threshold
of yet another different level of their lives.
Their excitement are really contagious,
making you wish you'd be a part of this wonderful event
that'd change the course of their lives.
Albeit I may not be present,
i hope I still can make a BIG contribution though,
that'll make their weddings even much more special...=)

And Happy Birthday it was...

Dead tired

For the first time since i got assigned here in Singapore, I got out of the office at 9 pm, slightly swaying from hunger pangs and from a groggy head that's overstuffed with Heat exchangers...

Project people had been pressuring me that i need to submit my pumps, vessels and filters at the end of this week. But how can i move on, when there're these wretched H/Es that keeps bugging me and keeping me from going ahead with the other deliverables. And just when i thought everything is ok, this handsome-but-irritating-jap-so-it's-just-as-well-he's-married-already (hmmm..i can be a mistress i think..hehe) came up and said he'd like for this other H/E to be in batch operation also which means i will yet again make a series of rating the H/E with all the different LMTDs at certain periods of time...huwahhhhh..what a headache........

Jin...i need you back..i need you here beside me..please come back...i need you back..let's start all over again....whew..good thing my kp's gonna be back in the office by monday..but then, i have to submit all the datasheets this friday...huhuhu..

@_@

I hate H/Es!
I hate H/Es!
I hate H/Es!
I hate H/Es!
I hate H/Es!
I hate H/Es!

@_@

see how drained i am...
i can't even make up a decent artic.
huff.....

Dreams dreams dreams

I so wonder why do people dream while sleeping...

could it be because of their hyperactive minds?
could it be because of subconscious thoughts that they try to stiffle down?
could it be because they were thinking of certain individuals?
could it be because that certain individual is thinking of them?
(bwahahaha...now the last one's quite assuming).

I usually don't bother myself what dreams i had.
(well, except for those troublesome ones like those nightmares)
But when they have a certain consistency already,
it does get to be kindy creepy...

4th Anniversary

Whoa!

Last January 28, our batch (Batch 14) had our 4th anniversary of working in our present company. Whew! Time really does fly so fast with a lot of happenings in betweens.....

Hmmmm..i wonder though if i will see the 5th anniversary....hoooh..i get the shivers...

My Takashi...

OMAYGAWD!!!!
I think im in love!
He's so funny, so sexy, so charming.......
Just discovered that My Takashi himself composed this song (GTO theme song).......
This definitely is a really really nice song....

Poison; Geat Teacher Onizuka) Opening(Drama Version)
Sung by: Sorimachi Takashi
Lyrics: Sorimachi Takashi

itsu made mo shinjite-itai
saigo made omoi-tsudzuketai
jibun wa ikiru imi ga aru hazu to
Always, I want to keep believing...
Until the very end, I want to keep thinking...
that there has to be some meaning to my life.
sameta me de waraikakete'ru
tamashii wo okasareta yatsu
namida wo nagasu itami wa aru no kai?
Smiling with a cold glare
Do guys who have had their very soul violated
really feel the pain of shedding tears?
iitai koto mo ienai konna yo no naka ja
Poison
ore wa ore wo damasu koto naku ikite-yuku
Oh Oh
In this kind of world where you can't say what you want,
Poison
I'll go on with my life, still being true to myself.
Oh Oh
massugu mukiau ima ni
hokori wo motsu tame ni
tatakau koto mo hitsuyou na no sa
In this moment we face it head-on,
we have to fight
in order to keep our pride.
kaidan ni suwarikonde
owaranai yume no hanashi wo
yo ga akeru made katari-tsudzuketa
Sitting on the stairs,
we went on talking of unending dreams
until the break of dawn.
sarigenaku kisetsu wa kawari
muishiki ni shisen wo otoshi
nagasareru koto ni narete-yuku no ka
The seasons change casually
I unconsciously drop my eyes
Am I really getting used to being swept along?
chiisa na yume mo mirenai konna yo no naka ja
Poison
jibun rashisa zutto itsudemo suki de itai
Oh Oh
In this kind of world where you can't have even small dreams,
Poison
I want to always, always be able to like being who I am.
Oh Oh
jiyuu ni ikite'ku hibi wo
taisetsu ni shitai kara
ikitai michi wo ima arukidasu
I want to cherish
each day I can live freely, so
I'll walk whatever path I want.
kitanai uso ya kotoba de ayatsuraretakunai
Poison
sunao na kimochi kara me wo sorashitakunai
I don't want to be manipulated by filthy lies and words.
Poison
I don't want to turn away from my true feelings.
iitai koto mo ienai konna yo no naka ja
Poison
ore wa ore wo damasu koto naku ikite-yuku
Oh Oh
In this kind of world where you can't say what you want,
Poison
I'll go on with my life, being true to myself.
Oh Oh
massugu mukiau ima ni
hokori wo motsu tame ni
tatakau koto mo hitsuyou na no sa
In this moment we face it head-on,
we have to fight
in order to keep our pride.

Charm

Went over to Charm's place for lunch.
Though I was with her for just 3 hours, I was refreshed with my visit as I had a great time watching her prepare our lunch while I sang and entertained her (yep, I didnt even lift a single finger whilst she busied herself).
I don't know why I enjoy watching people work while I try to entertain them.
It must be the satisfaction and happiness it brings me when I see them laugh while doing their chores, to keep them entertained as in the process I am likewise entertained.

No Worries

How i soooo love this song ever since i've heard it early December of last year...
=============

I just know your life's gonna change
Gonna get a little better
Even on the darkest day
I just know your life's gonna change
Gonna get a little further
Right until the feelings change

So, is this how it goes?
Think you've come this far with nothing to show
That ain't so, no
You don't see where you are
And if you don't look back you know you'll never know

Cause you think that you've been living, just treading water
And waiting in the wings for the show to begin
But I always see you searching
As you try that bit harder
Getting closer, oh yeah, to the life you're imagining

[chorus]
(I just know your life's gonna change)
Maybe not today, maybe not today
Some day soon you'll be all right
(I just know your life's gonna change)
Don't turn the other way, turn the other way
Feels like luck is on your side
(Just wanna live)
No worries, no worries
(Don't wanna die)
No worries, no worries
(Fight thought the lows)
Say it for me, say it for me,
(And take all the highs)
We all need somebody
(Yeah we can sink)
No worries, no worries
(Or can you swim)
No worries, no worries
(Or walk on out)
Say it for me, say it for me,
(Or jump right in)
We all need somebody

So, baby keep drifting on
Your endeavours ain't just selfless wasted time
Seek and find, yeah yeah
You're not that far from what you've hoped and wished for all along
Cause you think that you've been living, just treading water
And waiting in the wings for the show to begin
But I always see you searching
As you try that bit harder
Getting closer, oh yeah, to the life you're imagining

[chorus]

I just know your life's gonna change
Say it for me, say it for me
We all need somebody
