I haven't been blogging lately. Suddenly the world seems to turn into a halt. Among other things, I've been sorting out a few things - school files, old brochures, fastfood delivery leaflets, subscription magazines, which seemed to be sitting and gathering dust in the far-end corner. I've rearranged some things which have been cluttering up too much space than necessary. I've been neglecting my cyber real estate space lately. At times when I felt the urge to blog even the most banal thoughts running in my head, I find my fingers hitting the close button instead. Perhaps the thought of filling up the otherwise empty box while mentally sorting out random sights, sounds, smells, etc. in a hierarchical order and stringing them into words and cramming them all in a single entry is the problem. Nothing much happened during the week. Although some of my officemate's fascination, or addiction, for that matter to Weboggle, an electronic game played via the internet, where the players are not virtual but real, seems to be growing by the minute. I think I was the one responsible for bringing it into existence in the office.Being the official family driver that I am, I spent half of my Sunday driving around. Nag-road trip kami ni papa. That's how I would call it. T'was really tiring we've been all the way and back the long stretch of Sucat, Parañaque and yet there was no Himlayang Pilipino memorial homes in sight. We have to visit papa's cousin who passed away due to cancer before he'll be laid to rest in Batangas. Armed with just a small piece of paper with the word Himlayang Pilipino, Sucat, we left the house without any additional details. Ang galing namin noh? Yung mga taong tinanungan namin kung saan-saan na kami napadad but still to no avail, di pa rin nakita. We even went past Loyola, Manila Memorial, etc. to inquire. Haayyy. We've been calling my tita but she's not answering her mobile phone. She's the one who knows all the details. Everything else seems to conspire to make things happen that way, add to that, we have to be back at home at 5pm. I have to accompany my sister to a school event - graduation ball in Sulo Hotel. She's the alumni secretary at the moment and she has to do some hosting later on in the program. I would have to fill in the position of someone else who can't make it that day. So after a futile search, we headed back home na lang. Hahaha. Nag-sayang lang kami ng gas, we just laughed about it na lang.

{*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.
