blame it on the alcohol

last night, while i was watching pinoy big brother double up, i remembered how wasted i was when we went to bureau in a. venue, makati last month. seeing mariel so drunk and giving her housemates lots of hassle for having to pick her up everytime she fell brought back the memories of that fateful night to my consciousness. it was my first time to go there. i didn't hesitate to accept the invitation because i wanted to acquaint myself with different clubs in the metro and of course, i want (or should i say love?) to dance. i enjoy the feeling of being inside the club since i can let loose and just bring out my crazy side without being judged for acting inappropriately. i love listening to upbeat music and just groove to the beats. if some people sing while taking a shower, in my case, i dance. i bring anything that can generate the music i want inside the bathroom (or even toilet)- my mp3 player with speakers, my cellphone, my PDA, or my sister's PSP - then dance to my heart...

[i just noticed, i'm on a roll tonight! it's already my 4th post for the day. take note, i made it all from scratch.] since i was lazy to go to my derma to replenish my stock of 4% erythromycin gel (i had to go all the way to tiendesitas!), i thought of trying out some skincare stuff (again!), being influenced by jillsabs' post and the promise written on the box: if it's too small to read, let me spell it out for you: "100% of people saw clearer skin in 1 day!" what's more, the pimple gel claims to "reduce redness and pimple size in just little as 4 hours!" i'm too gullible for those things so i easily give in to the marketing hype. when products mention my skin concerns, i have this bad tendency to self-pity and decide to give it a shot, no matter how much dent it puts on my wallet. so going back to clean and clear, do its claims sound too good to be true? we'll see in the coming days. this cost me P550, definitely much cheaper than Pro...

the social-life-depriving exams

i absolutely dread LOMA season. this means no hanging out on weekends because i have to sulk in my room reading those thick books. yes, they are relatively easy but heck, i don't want to come on exam day unprepared. as much as possible, i have to read the books - even if it means giving up a couple of weeks for my social life. finally, i have finished one this afternoon - one more to go, then i'm done (i hope!). i only took the management exam for around 45 minutes (allotted time was 3 hours) because i wanted to get it over with as soon as possible. in the first place, today is a holiday and i was not supposed to be in the office premises. but no, since our EdRep enrolled us on a national holiday, we had no choice but to comply (woohoo, way to go!). what made me finish the exam so quickly? all thanks to the sample exams! even if they're already outdated (based on the old version of the books), they were still a huge help! only a couple of questions are not applicable, but t...

why miss independent?

the first time i heard this song, i immediately said to myself, "that's totally me!" let me dissect the lyrics: "kinda woman that want you but don't need you" - yes, i want a man. my friends know that for sure. but heck, i am not gonna die without having one. i just need a companion actually, someone who's always ready to be with me when i want to explore a place, watch a movie, or eat in some hole-in-a-wall resto blogged about by anton. the problem with my friends is either they don't have the time or they don't have money to spend for those things. "cause she walk like a boss, talk like a boss" - some people have the impression on me that i am a snob - it seemed to them that i think highly of myself and the people around me are my mere minions. at times, i do want people to have that kind of impression on me. it actually makes me feel good about myself. but i only want that when i'm with total strangers who have no relevance to my...

birth on all souls' day

well isn't it ironic? i came up with this idea while i was taking a shower this morning. of course, aside from the exam that i was worrying about, i thought, "i've been single for the longest time, and all i did was rant about being alone, always being the third wheel, etc... perhaps it's better to look at the brighter side." hence, this was born. no, i'm not planning to make it big in the blogging scene. i'll just create my own little world on cyberspace and be who i really am - no pretensions. posting something here will be my catharsis - my break from the workaday world, my trash bin for all the trivialities going on in my head. most of the stuff i'll post here are the things i don't usually tell to people i know personally - even those whom i consider as best friends. why? simply because i don't like being judged. i always feel like i am being misunderstood most of the time because i am not good at expressing what i really feel or think ab...
