Hello, hello!

Kamusta na ang dalawang co-pilot ko dito? Joel, kailan ka pa naging rubber doll?! Ewww! Heheh. Kinky!
Hagrid, where are you? No posts lately, eh? Baka nagpapakadalubhasa ka ngayon sa Palanggana entry mo. Hay naku, actually ako rin, dapat magpakadalubhasa na. Kaya lang sa dami (as in DAMI) ng work, di ko magawa. Pag weekend, andami namang chores and I catch up on sleep so yesterday, kahit plano ko sanang magsulat, di ko nagawa. (Although nagawa kong mag-yoga by myself at home for the first time, for 1.5 hours, kasi tapos na yoga classes namin sa UP for the 2nd sem. I just recalled what we did in yoga class and did all the exercises and scary yoga poses.)
Consciously akong di lumalabas ng bahay pag weekend dahil mahal at magastos. Pag late na ang gimik, kelangan ng cab fare pauwi, kelangang kumain sa labas. Bollocks. I can cook much better food actually than many of the restos am forced to frequent out there.
For instance, ang Cafe Bola ng Gateway Mall/Araneta Center Cubao. They charge P110 for little tuyo fillets with egg, rice, and tomato salsa. Heller! Bollocks, right? Yung bangus belly nila na masarap sana eh upwards of P200 na. No way. Magluluto at kakain na lang ako sa bahay.
I dunno kung lumalabas ang pagiging pure Ilocano ko (as in kuripot), although dito naman ako lumaki sa Manila and I don't even know how to speak Iluko... but for as long as I can remember naging matipid ako. There was this running joke years ago in my family cos when I was in late grade school or very early high school ata, I was counting my allowance and planning to save it daw para makabili ako ng Kia Pride na kotse. Hahaha! Ang baba naman ng ambisyon ko sa kotse. Bibili lang ako yung parang lata pa. Heheh. But then, years ago, I think that car really was cheap. Needless to say, di ko tinuloy ang planong 'yon at hanggang ngayon carless citizen pa rin ako, which is fine by me.
Truth is, middle up to late last year sobrang gipit ako, as in sobra. We had so many bills to pay cos my mom was having money probs herself and couldn't send much to help with the bills. So now I am fully aware of how serious it is when a friend begs off sa gimik kasi hindi pa sweldo week or whatever. Kasi kung walang-wala ka, wala talagang magagawa. Damn, I hate money that way.
Anyhoo, tama na ang pag-rant. Good luck to us in writing our Palanggana entries. BTW, meron ba kayong mini-obsessions lately? Ilista nyo naman dito, parang slambook. Wala lang. A while back mine was Photoshopping desktop wallpapers and printing them out as A3-size posters for my bedroom wall (I have 6 plastic frames on my wall and 30 posters so far, which I slip inside the frames 6 at a time). So now I'm obsessed with:
- Late Night with Conan O'Brien (this guy rocks!)
- Interpol
- Franz Ferdinand
- Buying argyle or v-neck tops at the ukay-ukay, to layer these with collared button down shirts and wear them with Mary Janes, so I'll be dressing kinda preppy like Interpol (although Indi said mukha daw akong weezer, not Interpol)
Hmm. Wala na akong maisip. Maglilista pa ko next time. See you guys soon!
