You

I love you, but today I just HATE YOU!

Pay day is a happy day

Just got news that we have already received our salaries. Finally. We are all alive again. We can now eat to our heart's content.

Nicole and I are seatmates tonight at work, and we are planning to go to Baguio City to visit the ukay-ukay. We wanna go SHOPPING! Yahoo. Our office friend Gwen and my best bud Nell will be coming along. We plan to go on Aug 13. Leave at 3am and arrive there at around 7am. Then come back to Manila on the same day, probably leave at around 7pm. Sounds like fun fun fun!

It's now Friday morning, and only one more shift to go, and it's my rest day again. Lea will be celebrating her birthday in our group's pad, and I'll probably drop by to grab a bite. My hubby will be sleeping over there coz he has a shift on Sat morning at 6am. Then I'll wait for him on Sat afternoon when he logs out at 3pm. I'll probably sleep over Nell's pad again.

Can't wait for my rest day. As usual.

Sigh...

My hubby came home early, and he was all sweet that I almost didn't want to go to work. He kept biting me! hehehe...How I wish I could just stay home and cuddle...

Nicole and I went to work together...and we stopped by Jollibee...yum! And now I'm at work and I hate it.

Walang kwenta ang post na to...

Weekend gimiks

Last Saturday, I met up with Nell and we had coffee at Starbucks. We went back to her pad at aroubd 9am and then she slept for an hour while I watchec tv. After an hour, I woke her up bec we were supposed to go bed hunting. She wanted to buy a double deck bed and a study table. While she was taking a bath, I fell asleep and she didn't wake me up till 3:30pm when my husband asked her if I was up. He fetched me from Nell's and then we went to Robinson's Galleria. We had dinner first (my first meal for the day) and the watched "The Island".

When we got home, his siblings were there in the house: Ate Joy (the eldest), Bebz (the youngest) with hubby Owie and kids Yan-yan and Jade, and Melot (the younger brother). Ate Joy cooked tuna pasta and they were celebrating Bebz and Owie's 7th year anniversary. Wow. It was good. We slept late coz we were watching "The Lion King 3: Hakuna Matata" while chugging down beer.

On Sunday, Raymund and I stayed at home. We woke up late, and then took a nap after eating lunch. We watched "Hitch", "Mr and Mrs Smith", and "War of the Worlds" on DVD with his mom and brother Melot.

I slept late again today. I couldn't sleep last night, I finally slept at 5am. Woke up at 2:30pm. We watched the State of the Nation Address by the President.

When I was changing to go to work, Raymund came back from gym and said he's gonna render 4 hours OT and will sleep in the office. So we went to work together. He'll be sleeping there coz he has work at 6am tomorrow.

And then the sunshine came...

The sunshine is filling up my senses...It's my rest day in a few hours, and I can't wait to throw my headset and run out of the building. No taking of calls for 2 nights. Heavenly.

Nell has confirmed that I can barge to her condo after my shift, which is at 5am. But she suggested I call her landline first to wake her up. Then we'll probably eat while chatting away for hours and hours. I hope we don't get the urge to shop again, coz I always end up broke afterwards.

Raymund was absent today, and he asked me to just wait for him later. His shift ends at 3pm. So it looks like I won't have any sleep later. But I don't mind. I'll sleep later when I'm supposed to be at work. Ah heavenly sleep. I'll be sleeping like a normal person.

He will be on graveyard shift soon, starting August. I will have a sleep mate again! I sleep better if he's lying next to me...*grins wickedly*

Thanks to Rice Bowl Journals for letting me join your community.

Office friends

I like this pic...taken a few months ago...me on the far right with my office buds...

I hate this job

...and I mean it. It's the cause of stress, sleepless days, headaches, flu, body aches, misery...

Why am I still here? Because I don't have a fucking choice. Making a living in this country is like the black plague. Enough said.

On a brighter note, one more shift and it's my rest day! God, I can't wait. I have an appointment with best buddy Nell. We're going gurl-bonding on Saturday. Shopping is the way! And eating. And movie watching...

A lot of nothings

It was raining earlier, and I wished I was back in bed instead of being here at work. I wish I was sleeping with my hubby next to me and not having to take calls. Sigh. The joys of life.

It's a good thing that my seat mate is on his rest day, because I can now use his pc! My pc just sucks. I have to restrart it like twice a week, and it always hangs when I have a call.

Raymund and I went to the Makati Medical Center on Tuesday after his shift. I had my right arm checked. There was a painful lump on it. It turned out to be a swollen muscle. I have the tendency to out my arm in an angle that my arm rests on the edge of the table when I hold the mouse. I had to put hot compress on it twice a day, 30 mins each. Man, it's painful.

I've been eating and eating and eating. Someone please stop me!

We went to Tutuban last Sunday and I bought new clothes. Shopping! So now I'm broke. Salary comes in next week, and I can't wait!

I'm sorry...

I'm sorry baby. I Love you.

The Day You Said Good Night
by Hale

Take me as you are
Push me off the road
The sadness I need this time to be with you
I'm freezing in the sun
I'm burning in the rain
The silence
I'm screaming
Calling out your name

And I do
Reside in your light
Put out the fire with me and find
Yeah you lose the side of your circles
That's what I'll do if we say goodbye

To be is all I gotta be
And all that I see
And all that I need this time
To me the life you gave me
The day you said goodnight

The calmness in your face
That I see through the night
The warmth of your light is pressing unto us
You didn't ask me why
I never would have known
Oblivion is falling down

If you could only know me
Like your prayers at night
then everything between you and me will be alright

She's already taken
She's already taken
She's already taken me
The day you said goodnight

* I LOVE this song... *

I hate Mondays...

Early to rise, sleepy at work

As usual, I woke up early again. I really wanted to sleep for a few more hours, but stomach kept grumbling and complaining that I had to get my ass off the bed to eat. I slept at 7am and was awake by 12 noon. Sucks.

I decided to turn my college notebook to a budget notebook. I wrote down the expenses for the month, how much I consume for the rent, for shopping...blah blah...I really want to save up so I'm really hoping this will help me. I love that notebook. When I get tired of the pages, I can take them off and put new and fresh filler pages. I've had it for 5 years now. I've used it in college, used it to list the things I need to do for the wedding, used it as a diary once...

I can't wait for my rest day. I want to take the day off tomorrow. I promised myself I won't be absent for work this month, but I badly need to rest and get away from work for a while. Sigh. I'm so stressed out!

I didn't see Raymund before I left. He had to pay his bills and got home after I left. It's his rest day tomorrow. I can't wait for my salary to come in. Bills Bills Bills.

Enemy of the state...

That's how the President looks like now...There is a huge rally just below our office building, and they are trying to make President Arroyo resign from her post. Nicole and I had to leave for work early, and we decided to meet up in the MRT station. We shared a cab to go to the office. Ayala Avenue is packed and closed. Sigh. What is happening to the Philippine government? Is there any hope for us Filipinos?

My husband went home early today. We watched tv together for around 2 hours. When I left for work, he decided he'd tag along so that he could drop by the laundry and get our clothes. He waited for me to get a cab before he went home. Ain't that sweet? I miss him soooooo much. =(

My birthday gift

I didn't see my husband for 2 days. He is now in the morning shift, and I'm still stuck on the graveyard shift. Sigh. This afternoon, he texted me at around 3:30pm asking me if I want to have dinner with him before I go to work. I quickly bathed and left for Makati. Arrived at 4:30pm and he was with his friends.

Raymund and I went window shopping for a while. We had dinner at Oody's and then we went to Rustans. He bought me my birthday gift! He bought me a Carolina Herrera 212 perfume...wow...my baby is so sweet. Thanks baby! Love yah!

I had to buy a new lip and cheek tint again...I lost my old one...and I just bought it on April. I think I left it in the office and someone probably took it. Sigh. I just can't use a different one. It HAS to be VMV Lip and Cheek tint in Debutante.

I am soo sleepy. Only had 6 hrs of sleep. Only one more and it's my rest day again. Can't wait!

Happy 1 month!

Today, I have been married- scratch that- happily married to my husband Raymund for 1 happy month. Happy one month to you baby! I love you more each day!

I haven't been updating my blog, been too lazy and too busy...

It's the 4th of July, and we are not receiving any calls from customers in the US. I LOVE going to work on US holidays. No calls, no work, all fun.

Yesterday, my baby and I went to the mall and watched "War of the Worlds". It was good. But I got scared about aliens killing people. And the ending didn't seem right. The aliens were so powerful and stuff and then they just dropped dead? Oh well. Steven Spielberg said so...

He took me perfume hunting in the mall. He said he's gonna buy me a perfume for my birthday gift. He decided to buy me Carolina Herrera...the classic one. The 212 Sexy didn't fit me... He had testers on both my arms and palms and wrists, trying to find the right smell...hehehe...i love my baby.

I miss my best buddies Nell and Eva. I haven't seen them since my wedding...and that was a month ago! Sigh. Miss yah guys. We badly need to meet up for our movie marathon session! *sniff*
