it's time to put the party hat on!

...i haven't had the chance to celebrate my birthday the way little kids do since i started college and i kinda miss it :)

...but tonight, i got to put my party hat on in a colorful crowded room and lotsa balloons to top the celeb...one of the trainers for the class had her 26th bday and they gave her a surprise party - something that i havent't got for the longest time :)



HAPPY BIRTHDAY RUTHIE!!!! (gor na waks! hehehe)





...and a little tounge action coming up! hehehe

my training diary - an update in a shuteye

...the past few weeks' killing me - all work related that is...but the good side to it is time flies fast and maybe the next thing i'll know is i'm already on a flight back to Cebu...i never missed the place until now, i've realized that even if i don't like it there, it has already been my comfort zone...

...training is hardcore hard work, you get to meet a lot of interesting personalities, some would make your stay really worthwhile while some would make you want to leave the place right away (and i don't want to name drop hehehe) but yeah..there's someone's getting on my nerves right now....someone whose got a bloated ego which i would love to deflate in an instant :)



***nosebleed moment

...but still, it's been a nice ride except for occasional melancholic moments (yah know, the stuff you do when you miss someone so badly - those kinda stuff), and of course training wouldn't be fun if you don't have the must-have camwhorin' moments hehehe





...and even those stolen moments...and the not so stolen ones :)







***good thing i still don't have my bald spot yet...que horror!

this morning started bad

...i hate it when someone keeps me waiting...i'm the most impatient person i know...everything is wrong right now

...i hate it

...i wish i can write something better the next time

i'm missing you...yeah you!

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear

would you be tired if you did this for the weekend?

...last weekend was just super fast-paced for me, but i think i wasn't the only one...it's the Sinulog weekend so expect the worst when it comes to traffic but when it comes to party...Cebu's the way to go baby :)

...got to sneak out from work to spend the weekend in Cebu, and the first thing i did was to get myself a haircut (i've been having a bad hair day for the last 4 days) and went to Starbs after for my caffeine fix (something that's been deprived from me since I got here...yeah they got no Starbucks here, so i gotta make friends with the coffee vending machine)





...had dinner with Tetet, Ian and Chubaboink and had some carbo overloading...started off with bruschetta then some seafood pasta and some penne with fried zucchinis and eggplants...super yum! and best part about it is that i was able to get a bag of 3 muskeeters when i made a pit stop at the Waterfront...YEY!






...went to some posh bar after and mind you i was already more than 24 hours awake but i'm still kickin'...had lotsa dose of different kind of cheeses and caviar and got some Kahlua for the required alcohol for the night...made a few more talks and called it a night...






...was on hibernate mode the whole day of Saturday and started the day late...had dinner with friends from work to catch up on things and then i got myself a good massage and head for dreamland right after..

...did a little bit of sunbathing (actually that was bit too much) and few hours of walking to catch the whole Sinulog parade...i'm tired...let the pictures do the talking :)

separated @ birth ... hehehehe

...someone sent this through an e-mail :)



***weird / effort hehehe

...i wonder who this guy is

i got my bags packed baby i'm ready to go

...i'm leaving a lot of things behind...friends from work, my agents who i've been with for the longest time, Cebu - which i've learned to love...

...and of course i'm leaving behind the person i love the most - this thought alone can make me want to leave everything behind but then i gotta do this...for my own good...for my growth



...gosh it feels like i'm not coming back hehehe...before i know it, 3 months' all over and done like the speed of a shuteye...i'll make sure that at the end of this stint I'll be making a pit stop first in Singapore or wherever he may be and i can't wait for that day to come

...a lil' send-off party from friends last Saturday...i sooo want to cry looking at these pictures hehehe...yeah i know - i'm over-reacting...but that's what i do best

***w/ my two best mentors/pseudo-girlfriends/life support all rolled into one :)

***and my iPod died on me...this is sooo depressing

a night of debauchery with the fagulous two

i finally got the chance to spend some time with the faguloush BFFs' last night and i should say, it's very refreshing, it's something that i need after a long time and best part of all i gotta spend the night with 'em living the SIMPLE LIFE hehehe

...start it off with a dinner - fear factor style hehehe...this is sooo not the usual glamorous me...got some BBQs' from where else but Larshan (did i spell it right?) - Cebu's most famous barbeque strip where you can satisfy your meat craving without creating much damage to your pocket and having the best siomai in town tops everything..and don't you worry, everything's kosher or at least i think :)





***this is the most laid-back place ever where you can care less...all you need is a bottle of water and some hand sanitizer and you're good to go...plus you can do some flashy-lights-shopping after hehehe



...we then headed to MickyDs' to spend more time gossiping about other people, people we love and specially those we hate and those who were about to hate hahaha...nothing compares to having two backstabbing-hate-loving-gossip-girl-like-fags around you...and of course the night wouldn't be complete without the mandatory camwhorin :)







BLUSH ON ACTIVATE!!!



PRICELESS!

being cynical about love over a caffeine fix

...i had dinner with an old friend last night - something unplanned (i-bumped-into-you-and-suddenly-i-want-to-have-dinner type hehehe) and by the way i ended up being sooo underdressed for that dinner hehehe

***damn!!! check out those boots, and the full make-up...and me on the other hand is wearing somethin normal, the always dependable Lacoste shirt:

...nyway, after dinner, we head to Starbucks to get our caffeine fix for the night...catch up with "whatever-the-hell-happen-to you stuff", stories about love labor's lost and all the stuff that goes along with it...him being cheated by someone he thought would be the one till the end - now that sucks BIG TIME and i'm sure all the drama about love went all the way down the drain...

...now he's cynical about love, sleeping around or finding the "boytoy for the night" for a temporary high to cope with the pain but when it's over and done i'm sure it's the feeling of being empty that will surface...feeling alone and unloved...and it's normal for him to feel that way...all i could do is listen, and appreciate the fact that i am happy with my current relationship and being loved :)

...but i guess i gave him something to remember before calling it a night, which is this (a line from William Forrester):

No matter how you bury yourself in the quicksands of life, love will always find a way to surface you back"
