What Happened?

Updates, updates. A way to remind myself that things happen in my life. :p

1. My sister graduated from highschool last Monday! After listening to the speaker read 500 plus names the whole morning, the whole ceremony was finally over. Geez. As usual, I played "personal photographer" for her that day.




2. I'm having a blast maintaining our ukay-ukay online shop! Not because I'm making my own money but because it's such a happy business. I always get excited when my friend Janine and I go on our ukay trips. Ukay-ukay is truly fab, chic and cheap clothing without compromising your budget! We have great plans for the shop and we are keeping our fingers crossed. For now, we're just working our asses of while still being thankful. And before I forget, the shop is http://ohmyukayukay.multiply.com. ♥

3. Because I hate it when my hair sticks to my wet nape on those dreary hot afternoons, I had my hair trimmed. I got tired of the taong grasa look so I visited my favorite salon and had a fifteen-minute haircut. Loved it. :)

 It's still long anyway.

4. One of this week's highlights would have to be our family lunch at Marco Polo. I wish I could tell you how much I ate that day! But they really have the best buffet in the city. 
I certainly cannot have enough sushi. This was not the last plate yet. :p

5. And ah yes, photography. It's all so sisterly. :)


See, things happen. Hooray. :)

So I haven't written anything in a while.

And I have so many things to say.

I know what I want to do but I don’t do it. But right now, I’m doing what I love. Next, I wanna see if I can love what I’m doing. Confusing? Basta.

I appreciate my “Big Sister-liness” nowadays. For two weeks, I’ve been manning the house with my two siblings in it. And it’s fun.

I took my sister to Times Beach the other day. And of all the things that could ever happen in a million years, some random guy came up to me and started talking! To my surprise, he was actually good-looking and neat and maputi! I was wondering, where were you when I was announcing to the whole world that I was available? But naaaaahhh.

Long distance relationships require the hardest work. No effort, no relationship. If you don’t dial that number, you move a kilometer further apart. But he makes it a bit easier for me. I’m stopping myself from swooning and being cheesy, but yes, he gives me so much assurance.

While waiting for a jeepney on my way home, I saw a mini-cooper. A shiny yellow one. ‘66 Austin Cooper. Two-door. Leather seats and all. I fell in love. I want one sooo badly. :|

Jeepney rides are fun. You don’t know what you’ll come across on your way home. The different people you sit beside with. The cars you see on the road. I felt like a kindergarten when I rode the jeep today. The attraction of the day was a guy riding a bike, with a speaker playing “budots” music strapped on his back.

Love. Peace. Happiness. I’m having heaps of all three today. Thank you Lord. :)
