cocktail disaster

we went to this agro industrial fair at the batanes state college yesterday and it was a lot of fun... well at first though haha..

the hotel and restaurant group had the whole auditorium to themselves and they turned a corner into a mini bar... the cheapest cocktail drinks i ever tasted were there. at P13 you can have a screw driver placed in a martini glass... isn't that exciting! the highest price was only P45 and it was the sangria.. we started of with that drink. it was more of a red wine then they added sprite soda. we also tasted the ever famous tequila sunrise in two different colors, margarita and the daiquiri. we started drinking at around 10am so i was woozy at lunch.

then we went back to the office and it's where the disaster started... haha. damn! i'll never ever drink all that in one sitting again. they were all mixed up in my stomach that i vomitted 3 times for the afternoon. what a mess i made at the rest room haha.. eeew! i also wasn't able to attend the 6pm mass coz i was suffering from headache.

oh and the governor caught us drinking at the bar too... i hope he didn't notice me not attending the women's parade early that morning. i'm definitely guilty...

marley & me

the latest movie i watched is by owen and jennifer aniston and it's a family thing... honestly i didn't enjoy it. it's too light and i don't understand why the couple became so attached with the dog who had been irritating from the start? i don't get it. the movie practically revolved around the dog who since the beginning had been eating and biting their furnitures. surely, marley the dog should have been trained for all those years that he lived with a family. if i'll do the summary it'll be just this..

a dog got a home, ate a bunch, chewed furnitures, barked at night, irritated its masters, got old... and finally died.

a couple got married, applied for a job, got a house, bought a dog, chased the dog most of the time, had children, wife resigned from job, husband got promoted, lived in the rural, pet the compulsive dog, cried when marley died.

and that's it. not even funny, not even that dramatic. but one thing i like about it is the behavior of the couple throughout their marriage... giving much consideration to the betterment of the other.

when will i be ever ready?...

almost all of my college friends want to visit batanes and they have been saying that since our college days! we've graduated a year now and this coming summer they'll start coming. i really hope i can entertain them financially. this low income is really setting my limitations to the lowest level. i want to accomodate them when they're here na but it really is pricey!

i need a business... i need moreincome... i need money!

it's getting hot...

it definitely is! summer is sure coming and my skin is not ready... sunblocks aren't popular in this part of the land and sleeveless aren't that popular... but what the heck! i bought second hand spaghetti straps to wear at home and on weekends. i'm also gonna buy a blender for my summer fruit juices.. haaay.. i can smell bora from here. i miss those days.

anyways.. i planned to have a garden but mom said plants won't grow well on hot weather so i'll do that by july probably. i'm going to do some crossstiching for the meantime.. mine and hal's faces hehe... vanity..;)

but let me not forget my schooling. i still have to enroll on MA. summer classes are forever.

i hope summer will end with a nice accomplishment...

via crucis...

lent is coming... admittedly, i like it and i hate it as well... it's solemn but it requires a lot of effort... today we will start the way of the cross around our town. good thing our town's a small one haha.. i hope we'll be able to fill the streets. people might just be encouraged to join since it is held at night. it's the first time we'll ever do the way of the cross on friday... we were used to sunday afternoons.

choir will have to practice... we must.. Aja! God Bless us..

why am i taking it

i'm confused and uninspired... i'm taking this masteral in educational management and at the same time having my BS education undergrad. but i really don't want to become a teacher someday..

you see i already graduated in UP by taking up tourism... now that i’m here in the island, i don’t want my brain to get stuck so i started enrolling onto what’s available.

And now.. i just want to get it over with.. the classes are boring..

my sister

she's my lovable sister... fun, chubby and kikay.

they have this filipino wear as their theme in the socio soc's anniversary pictorial... cool eh? she's studying at the UP los banos. i think the school did her good with her introvert issue.. she's a timid gurl and i worry about her taking care of herself sometimes.

i miss her..;)

pictures to follow

Ok so i’m officially 23 years old.. mom said i was born at about 3am in the morning.. tough call huh haha.

I got a swatch watch as a gift from hal... yiii.. nice! I love it! and today he bought sandals for me. Well i didn’t ask him to, he just love giving me gifts. How sweet.

Anyway, back to my birthday, i cooked for the first time a tuna casserole but the kids aren’t used to white pasta to they didn’t taste it. my visitors were mostly kids, choir members and the children of my batchmates. They’re pure fun running around and watching tv while they ate.

Since it has been our choir agreement to not drink while the kids are around, the drinking session started late. Father Wilfred was there drinking matador with us.

Admittedly it wasn’t as fun as last year but it was surely less disturbing to neighbours haha. And i loved my birthday.. it’s my own and i did enjoy!
