My dress...

This is what my dress looks like... I wore it to my friends S and A's wedding.. It was made by Tammy Tan . I got the idea for the design online - to be more specific - in the Neiman Marcus website. Tammy was the one who suggested the color. I think this dress will come out in the glossies in the coming months. Love you Tammy!! :) Thanks! :)

Flight Delayed... Argh!!!

Yes, you read it right - my flight tomorrow to sunny Bangkok will be delayed for 2 hours!! A few minutes ago - I received a phone call from PAL. Apparently there has been an aircraft thingie - thus - our flight will be delayed for 2 hours! So instead of departing at 1030am - it will be 12:30pm! Half-day shopping - down already. Great. Now - that leaves us with less time to go around. Just great. Good thing I didn't push having to do all the city tours tomorrow afternoon! Sigh... PAL - Philippine Arlines = Plane Always Late.

a Sad puppy..

Yes, I'm a sad puppy. This afternoon I received sad news. It's sad for me because I was expecting my best bud KI to join us in our Bangkok trip. Unfortunately, even if the odds were with us - she still decided not to come. I am very much disappointed - but what can I do right? *Sigh................ I was really looking forward to traveling with KI , actually with the whole gang. This was supposed to be our first out of the country trip since high school! Anyways, KI - we'll miss you!! Wish you can still change your mind and come with us!! Pwede pa naman - there's still the online booking facility in PAL's website! Go go go !! In a few days, I'll be off to Bangkok - I'm really excited!! :)

MM's send off..

(L-R) MM, A, moi!, K what poses right?! This is us - the Beijing Chickens. Our friend MM will be heading to Shang-Hai next week for a 7 week training courtesy of Citibank. Since she'll be gone for a while - K decided to have a cookfest that originally tagged her and B - MM' s fiance (who is now taking cooking classes) to whip up some dishes for us! But as it turns out - K was the only one who did everything! We had this super delish garlic dip and a very yummy Cheesy Chicken Casserole!! (I even took home the left over sauce!! Haha..) After dinner - us girls went to the den to watch a little TV and did some catching up (even if we saw one another at Vic's wedding - the funniest wedding ever!! ) When our respective boys arrived - we then proceeded to play Taboo . I learned Taboo from KY - she brought this game along when we went to Bagiuo some 9 years ago (has it been that long?!?!?!) And ever since - I've been loving this game and also kicking some good ass win

Dinner with my Girls..

It has been months since we all sat down and had dinner . KY has been in Paris, finishing her Masters in Luxury Branding. While SE has been busy with work, KI has also been busy with baking and cooking school. So I took them to Cook Book Kitchen. They loved the food and the price too!! :) Another success!! Hahaha.. I've become quite a good customer to them actually, the head server had this knowing smile when she saw me. Hehehe... :) I haven't seen KY in 9 months - but man, did she look beautiful . Ang ganda ganda niya super !! No exaggeration. She did gain a little weight but she looked so blooming, happy and uber beautiful! I told her to maintain her weight because she looks sooooo nice. But she retorted that since she's the active-beach person that she needed to lose a little weight para naman hindi scandalous ang dating . KI still looked the same, we'd bump into one another at the Yoga studio once in a while - I just have to say this - her curls -

Planning - Bangkok Trip Part 2

Here's a checklist for the trip: Accomodations - Our hotel/apartment has been booked already by my brother's friend M. We're staying at the Fraser Apartments in Luangsan. Click on the link and see how amazing it looks! I can't wait already (Super giddy with excitement!!!!) Tour - My friend W who's been based in Bangkok said that she'll do the booking for us - her apartment building's conceirge arranges the best tours ( daw ). We're taking the Ayuthaya Tour that is an hour bus ride up and on the way back to Bangkok - we'll be riding a ferry - I do hope it's an air-conditioned one!! Itinerary - well, this part is still - non existent. It got me thinking - the first time I went to Bangkok - all we did was shop, there were no tours at all. This time, I think I'd like to see some more sights. I mean - 3 whole days in Bangkok (2 airport days) - that's a LOT of time already, don't you think? I just hope that the weather is bearable.

Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Edition 2!

Here we go again!! Yehaaaaaaaaa!!! Weeknights will never be boring again!! Hahaha!! (I've suddenly become a fan of the localized version of Marimar!!) It's been 3 days since the housemates entered the house, and this early - I have my favorites! Here's a rundown on my take on the contestants: My favorites: Yayo A. - she's an 80's has been. Can you believe she's 40? I thought she was younger! Well, you see she belonged to the Philippines' version of 'The Breakfast Club' - and somehow at the height of her success - she eloped with her now husband to the US. They had kids and all, then suddenly they came back to pursue their acting careers. Little did I know that she was a martyr wife. Now, why is she my favorite? Well, simply because the so pleasant to look at and watch on TV and for the simple fact that she belonged to the Bagets era.. Babaw noh?! Wil D. - I've been seeing him in glossies for the past few years, I never knew he came to

Thoughts: ALL OVER THE PLACE!

Dang it! I've been wanting to write a blog entry - but every attempt I've made - I get stumped! Literally looking into the screen of the laptop - and not knowing what to write! Dang it! Here are the highlights of the weekend: - It was S's wedding day - The dress I had Tammy Tan make for the wedding was a huuuuuuge hit! - I had dinner with my GT sisters Sheila and Sophie! - Had the ultimate MMU test - from 10am to 1:00am - Galeng! - DLSU won the crown - again!! (14-0? what happened?) So for now - this........ Till my brain starts functioning again........

DLSU vs. UE

Good job boys!! :) This was only my second live game this season! From where I was seated - I was amazed that JV Casio was a big boy! Hahahaha... :) Animo La Salle!!

Desperate Housewives S3 Fiasco - Apology

I just saw this when I was opening my Yahoo! Mail. This part of the article: What do you think?

Untimely Death..

I learned from my mom last night that there was a fellow ICAn that was shot dead because of road rage . I wondered who she was, and so when Bandila (the late night news on TV) was up, she called me to the living room. So I waited to see who it was. It turns out - it was Katherine Palmero or Kay-P to me. When I saw her picture being flashed on the screen, I suddenly remembered her ever so jolly mood. She would always be smiling and talking to people. We're not close but we knew one another. We'd often exchange hi's and hello's when we'd see one another in the hallways of DLSU. I think that was the only time (after High School) that we had actually talked. But that was years ago. She just turned a year older last September. 28 is too young... I really hope and pray that they get their justice. Kay-P - you are loved we will miss you! Thanks for the small talks and the big smile you had waiting for me whenever we'd see one another in campus. Rest in Peace

Desperate Housewives S3 Fiasco - Offensive?

Maybe we're just too sensitive on these matters? Well, I guess for some yes and for some - no. My opinion on the matter? Well, I get the joke - and I found it quite funny. But it was a cheap shot. Offensive as it was - I think the line just showed us more how insensitive and tactless Susan Meyer is. That's it to me.

Deny... Deny to death!!

That is a phrase some of my males friends tell me when asked if they'll admit to having an affair (if they ever do) Now why is that? Beats me! But I know for a fact that when a guy admits to having an affair - he will never hear the end of it! Ever!!! This brings me to local showbiz's latest revelation: The Dennis Trillo Baby Frenzy.. When I heard the news that Carlene Aguilar (who's a schoolmate in HS - she's 2 batches lower than I am) was pregnant - I assumed it was Dennis Trillo's baby . Obviously, these two have been an off-again, on-again, couple. But when he denied it, a-haaa - I thought there was something fishy. Then I learned from the grapevine that Carlene has denied it too and said that some other guy sired the baby. The plot thickens.. Now after months of speculation and 9 months have passed - a Pinay nurse was able to leak the news that the baby's last name was Dennis Trillo's real last name. Alas - the media frenzy. Finally, he admi

Dilemas..

Okay, so my good friend S's wedding is coming up - 6 days to go till the big day!!. My Checklist is almost complete! - Dress It's already being dry-cleaned at the moment! - Shoes I'm using an old, reliable pair :) - Accessories Thanks to Kath! It made all the difference!! - Bag - Still thinking of borrowing or buying (a really cheap one that is!) - Hairstyle - BIG dilema - Make-up - Another BIG dilema It's already this Sunday - and I haven't booked anyone to do my make-up and hair! Darn it! Actually, I can't decide! Yikes! It's really a tough choice! But to make things somewhat okay - Sophie was willing to teach me how to do my own make-up. I'm not what you call a make-up maven - I actually suck at this. I don't know how to differentiate my look. I'm super scared to experiment. Such frustration!! And my hair? Well, I'll just probably go to a salon in QC. Any suggestions?
