huwag kang bibitiw bigla...

it sounds like it's wrong grammar but never mind that just focus on the fact that holding on is just as difficult as letting go even more difficult is finding the right time to do either.

blog 101

"went to the gym this morning for two hours to do cardio and ab work, then brought his nephew to and from school, not mentioning had to work fast so he'll be on time to pick up the nephew in school, then go back to the gym for another two hours to lift weights then play sword fight with two kulit nephews" - crystal has to say again that friend is one superman mcfriend whose days are spent doing worthwhile things while crystal is stuck doing not exactly nonesense but not so worthwhile things, in short things that aren't necessarily contributing to making crystal a better person or to nurturing crystal's relationships with the people she loves.

crystal is on her 101 blog post and would like to share some recent milestones (those that i can remember)...

-first movie with dex and grasche last sunday (flags of our fathers)
-last full show weekday movie with D after a long while (casino royale and yeah i didn't sleep)
-being addicted to a TV show (i think these days my friendship with my superman mcfriend is built on this show - awesome, mrs. karev!)
-in constant communication with my NY BF (no day without a YM for each other - almost!)
-finding an office buddy to share a laugh about outrageous office scenarios (yeah, laughter is still the best medicine)

p.s.

crystal is right about calm before the storm so until crystal's next post...

grey's mode

crystal doesn't like the fact that she edits previous posts in this blog so she might as well stop doing that soon. crystal is glad that she isn't the only one who thinks work life is crazy (and yet people choose to still live with it, crystal thinks they have no choice). crystal has this post to prove it. this is from one of crystal's favorite bloggers.

"I love my job! Why? Because my job teaches me that if you don’t look out for your own damn self, nobody will give a shit chance for you.
My attitude with people has always been passive since I am the non-confrontational people-pleasing all-around bully-able easily-manipulated easily-pinned down type.
I ain’t taking no more bullshit, bitch! I’m saying, sure everyone’s entitled for their own opinion, but I’ve come to learn that I can convince others too, to be persuasive, and even be confrontational sometimes. Because that’s what it takes on a day-to-day basis if I am to survive doing my job. I will stop (talking about work) here for obvious reasons."


crystal is not exaclty having a hard time with work the past few days in fact surprisingly it's been a breeze even with the things to do list as long as santa's list but crystal is worried that this might be the calm before the storm. hopefully crystal is not right.

crystal thinks that only (mc) friend will understand the "weirdness" of this post, hehe

hot stuff's rockin' party







as i predicted it was indeed a busy friday for me (actually it's a pretty busy weekend). work was crazy but i went through it just fine. indeed it's so much better to get things done without the boss around. D and i had fun preparing the giveaways. the intimate student ad congress event at the microsoft xbox room in 6750 was cool. ther's party was a blast. it was nice to spend time with the estrogen bench people while also being able to spend time with other friends. as i said, i get by with a little (in fact, a lot) of help from friends. sake lab for one round of beer was a nice way to cap the evening =) WE LOVE YOU THER! =)

m&m's

i love amazing race asia because of the m&m's from indonesia. they are so cute! it's sad to see a philippine team get eliminated but then again that's life and that team didn't need the money anyway! well who needs the money among these teams who are affluent in their respective countries?! no one, give the money to me!!! haha

after a relaxing day yesterday, save for the bit of nervousness during the interview with andy law and the crazy lines everywhere on the way home, spent resting and hanging out with D watching project runway reunions and season finales...friday will be a busy day! hay...so much to do at work, ther's despidida/super advance birthday celebration and the student ad congress to cover for adobo! good luck to me!

cake it

that's my ym status these days simply because...nothing i just like what happened in the movie. movies sort of rule my life, i get so much insight and it takes only 2 hours of my time. it is also my escape that is why i do not mind watching movies alone because when you are in escape mode you tend to want to go through it alone. movies with friends are an entirely different experience, still pleasurable but then again different. this is the reason why i am so proud during the young cinema exhibit of cinemanila just recently because a friend's film was part of it. JV's Hopia Express was a delight to watch not only because it was well done but because i can see JV in it and i see good things.

miles away from here and i can still feel the love from friends. B i talked about in my latest post. even cecilia who was in korea dropped a line in my email that surprised me because i haven't talked to her in ages. seriously dear i'm starting to miss you and it's not a joke anymore, haha. there's always my BF jonneroo all the way in new york yet we still take the time to bare our souls to each other while wishing and hoping that we're close enough to cheer up whoever needs it between the two of us. R in davao i rarely talk about but since we reconnected i know that she'll always just be there. so thanks to you my far away friends, your love and support are greatly appreciated. muwah.

transit and MFEO


this was a happy day for me. i finally was able to initally cover the other half of the story so i can finally make a decision sooner than i thought. sango lunch with JV and DE. stayed "behind" to work for most of the day. texting about spongecola with D (yes, he loves to play basketball and likes damien rice which lead D to text MFEO, hehe) while scouring robinson's mall for anything that looks like what D's selling but i ended up in cubes again. best of all: get together with TRANSIT (cecilia's baby that's really growing so fast, hehe) people at boca boca in edsa shang mall and chatting with B (she just has to be part of my career delibs even while miles away from me after all she's seen me through it all. another friend i love dearly. see you very soon B)!

grab a copy of the 8th issue of the new TRANSIT in the different circulations point listed at the cover page. i have two articles in this issue =)

royceful weekend

i know you can't have it all but surely a free massage from NEO day spa and a box of ROYCE nama chocolates (from a very dear friend, thanks teppy!) that will last for the weekend is a sure fire way to make me feel better. to cap my weekend and to start my week, i watched a movie alone again after quite a long while and it made me remember how it felt like to enjoy the cinema experience with no distractions. the movie was cake and i liked it. it is funny how the movies i watched would always remind me of my current situation and how it always would somehow give me ideas on how to deal with the circumstances. it's freaky (like cainer's stuff) but not really scary, just nice freaky. and D, thanks again for being the friend that you are...yeah i got that form jerry maguire, hehe.

yuck, blog!

yeah, D was saying that just when i was about to log in my blogger (using her laptop) but in reference to another scene of hillary duff blogging in the movie perfect man. i'm spending the weekend with her in alabang. it isn't really me to go about parading my thoughts but it doesn't really matter because i know that only my close friends check this out. life has been rough these past few weeks and i very well know that you ought to face your problems but it's also good to get away as far possible to take a much needed break, it helps you not to dwell on things. once you get back to the problem, you have an entirely new perspective and mostly it's a better one. talking about it with friends can earn you much needed feedbacks. writing imortalizes what just happened for in some cases you want to look back at it, laugh at the memories or simply recall what you learned from it. i'm a proponent of taking things easy but even i struggle with achieving this. no need for details but all i know is that really the courage to simply still be standing is reason enough to celebrate.

U turn...


two wrongs don't make a right but two rights make a U turn. i think i was able to do (or encounter a number of) the latter that' s why i'm feeling much better now after a row with my mother. it was more than two rights that made that U turn possible so i spinned for a while before getting back in place, hehe. i'm rambling but really i don't care, ha! i'm exhausted from crying so give me a break =)

the rights...

living in rockwell thus making it safe for me to jog even at the werid of hour of 10 pm
ahia's taking the whole thing lightly while still injecting a bit of seriousness that made me cry
D (poser artist!)'s assurance that i'm not alone in this plight
grasche checking on me
disney channel
jerry maguire
pcd's i don't need a man
spongecola (yeah, jologs, i know)
ana banana's ym's - welcome back to you and your dear sister ther!
AND
rich's work of art - above - ain't she something?!


rich dearie, i needed this! =)

so much for writing articles...oh well, not due anytime soon anyway...
