the canDIshhh tales

I just received a special letter (sent over by LBC) over the weekend. When I opened it and read it, I thought it was a bogus letter! Another one of those misleading letters! So - the 'complainant' in me decided to give DTI a call to inquire and report on the fraudulent-ness of the letter. I first called Globe Telecom to inquire - and as expected, I was told that the letter and the promo was indeed fraudulent. I then called DTI and was told by the operator, that the DTI Permit number was not found. This made me more curious! I was then passed to the Promos department, my call was answered by a certain Rose , without asking the nature of the letter - she immediately told me 'Basta kapag may letter, VALID na po yan' How the hell did she know?! She didn't even ask me for the DTI Permit number! So I insisted - amazingly - it was VALID! She then sounded eager to put the phone down - but I still questions. She was really reluctant to answer them. Luckily - I go...

The week started out kinda rough- I had a feeling that things will be a little shaky, but I was very optimistic. For the first time ever, I broke down (like never before) I cried buckets (and buckets), I was able to let out my frustrations, anger and sama ng loob . I don't think I've ever broken down like this - I mean, I'm a cry-baby, my tears are so mababaw - but last week - they couldn't stop from falling! Yikes! I felt so bad and confused - I considered giving up. I thought to myself that I did not deserve to be treated that way, but then again - who was I to say that right? I always remember the saying 'What doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger' As brutal as it is - I feel that its the most truthful saying, ever! I thought that things would be smooth sailing, I felt initial bumps right after last year's 'big' event - but as the days and months passed, the bumps became deeper and potholes were everywhere. Some trivial, some wel...

Okay, I've been neglecting this blog for months... But now, I'm back!! And why? Because of American Idol baby!! :) Yeah!! Yes, one of the shows I enjoy immensely! I love watching this show! Every year - it just keeps on getting more and more entertaining!! :) I think one of the things that I like about this show is the surge of emotions!! I am such a sucker for those sad (and happy!) stories that I cry instantly when I they get the yellow ticket! I can't explain it, but it's so crazy! It seems like I am overwhelmed with emotions - crazy noh?! Hahaha!! :) I can't wait for Hollywood week!! :) Yehaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! :) Grabbed from THIS site Let me just say - the songs picked to segweay - LOVE it! :) Danny reminds me so much of Robert Downey Jr., and David Cook!

Happy Happy Happy Birthday Selene!! :) Wish you ALL the best!! :)

I know I have been neglecting this blog. I've been very busy, December 2008 flashed by (yes, flashed) so quickly! How do I know it flashed by quickly? Here's how: 1) During the last week of every month - I am sure to scout for next month's copy of OK! Philippines. Last December, well - it totally slipped my mind! It was only when Fran asked me if I had a copy, did I remember! I never missed a copy - ever!! (Promise!) 2) I've only been to Starbucks, TWICE ! Can you believe it? My gosh.... 3) I haven't been to Trinoma in 3 weeks! I'm usually there once or twice a week! 4) I totally forgot to ask for MMFF passes!! Yes, I am a Tagalog movie freak - and it's such a delight for me to watch entries for the MMFF every December! From paying Php5.00/movie, I am now paying Php160.00/movie! Ouchie!! 5) I forget days and dates! Like when I had a meeting, the date was supposed to be 12/15 - I remembered only on 12/22! The bad thing was - I thou...
