Last Saturday:Completed some online mandatory courses in the office. After that, we had a halloween party at Tate's condo. What better way to celebrate your post birthday party is to turn it into a halloween party, too. Water in the pool is freezing. I didn't get to swin but I did took a dip. Sorry gurls for not joining you. Rolypoly was there after catching up with some sleep and now everyone knows how he isn't a typical male from the same cookie cutter. Which is good cause I'm really not that typical, either. I do hope that this would start as a Halloween tradition. Nilo did get his bag of treat or trick goodies. I feel sorry for that kid who left it behind. But I get a share of those sweet stuffs, anyway. Nilo and EJ have been fooling a lot the whole time which was so unexpected of those two.Amidst the hordes of kids who were celebrating their Halloween, we did have our own version save for the ghosts which have followed Nilo and Mitz even in their snapshots. Goosebumps.We left at half past midnight and I arrive home shortly after which wouldn't be the usal thing if Rolypoly isn't on the driver's seat.Last, last Saturday:Karene's post-birthday brunch treat at the newly-opened Heaven and Eggs branch at Glorietta 4. If you want some reviews, go to the site of the food blogger herself, Karene who's been doing a great work making her own version of dishes, which I heard turned out a lot better than the original.Its your usual fare of breakfast only the eggs are twice yummier. Although I'm not really into eggs. Eggs would be something that I would eat given that there are no other food available to fill an empty stomach. But the buttermilk pancakes are superb with all the gooey jams and syrups to choose from.The latest news is Bonna's tying the knot next year. Yikes, my friends are making the plunge to marital bliss already. After that proceeded to the office to do a few things and then went to Andrew's condo for his moving-in party. Really nice bachelor pad, you got there, Drew! Its even near Gateway Mall and Araneta Coliseum. Good thing, Belle brought her videoke paraphernalia. What is even better is that there are only a few occupants yet in the condo so it isn't a problem if we belted out some tunes to our heart's content.

{*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.
