Yep, you've read that right. I'm not sure if I that is something I should be happy about. Hehehehe. Over the weekend, I've been bombarded with messages from friends and former classmates telling me that they've spotted me on a DOLE commercial on ETC channel. The same goes with my sister, too since we both had that ambushed interview by the ETC veejay while on Dole's White Latino Nights party in Eastwood Central sometime last March. Since we don't have any cable subscriptions at home, we weren't able to see our faces yet on the said tv commercial.Just to give you an idea on the party.White Latino Nights
Dressed in our white ensembles, my sister and I hailed a cab at Philcoa to Eastwood Central Plaza, Libis to attend a singles' party. I won two entrance tickets to a Latino event. We downed three fruit cocktails, in different concoctions, eyed the finger foods hungrily and ate them, enjoyed the Latino beats, cheered the searchees on the dating game, watched in amusement the bartending contest, ohh-ed and ahh-ed at the mini fashion show, snapped pictures, strolled the place, played my maracas, seen G Toengi up close as she was the guest, and got interviewed by ETC veejay. We didn't get her name though. She's half-Korean and she's really nice and madaldal- really fits her job. She got us talking while watching the fashion show. There are really cool prizes up for grabs-10,000 for the winner in amateur bartending contest and trip for two to Boracay for the dating game winner. An organizer approached us if we want to go in the dating game. And my sister and I were like pushing each other around. Good thing, none of us dared. We'll probably wont live it down. Hehehehe.... We really had a blast! Its my first time to see the place. But my sister has been frequenting the place for some time now. We got home in one piece. Phew! And guess what, we saw Rolypoly on the jeep bound to Almar. He's on his way home after a drinking spree with his classmates in celebration of their last official day of classes. We got home a few minutes before midnight.There you go....

{*In a NUTSCHELLE*}
Just turned 23. Not that young anymore and not too old either. One of the few reasons why she had a good excuse to mess up her life and still get away with it.
She is a self-confessed blog addict. The blog design reflects the total opposite of her personality. She is innocence personified - prim and proper, goody-two-shoes but could turn your life into a nightmare at the least provocation. Nothing is too complicated that her not-so-average mind could comprehend.
{*Profile*}
I took delight in trivial things. I could cry bucket of tears over light drama flicks while feel-good movies make me feel fuzzy all over. Despite the sheer crappiness of horror stories, I still hate those gory and morbid scenes that will leave anyone with that sick to the gut feeling. I love the sound of the waves crashing into the shore and the heavy downpours on lazy afternoons. Although i'm almost always caught with a bunch of people, I savor moments in solitude--staring into blank spaces, totally leaving the worldly troubles behind and just lingering in silence. I'm a self-confessed bargain hunter. New finds never fail to fascinate me--it make my melatonin levels shoot sky-high.
{*Career*}
Corporate girl who commutes from three to five hours on daily basis; started being a corporate slave a few weeks before graduation;
she's been working for two years; just a few months shy of getting that much-coveted MBA degree from an international academe.
She wants to carve a niche in her pursuit for world domination (as if she's bent on it!). Future career plans include being a
financial journalist or lifestyle writer; preschool teacher, etc.
{*Capricorn woman *}
The Capricorn woman has a strong ability to understand human nature the way no one else does.
She has the ability to analyze and understand any concept well and possess a good memory.
It is not easy to deceive her. She has a very business savvy nature.
Conservative by nature, prudent and economical - a Capricorn women can amass a lot of wealth in her life.
However it is also not uncommon for Capri woman to indulge in sporadic spending spree - leading to temporary financial hassles.
