get drunk
pig out
sing my lungs out
sleep in the whole day
park my ass in front of the PC the whole day
watch TV the whole day
go shopping
play video games
play billiards
stare into deep oblivion
chat with old friends
hang out in Starbucks
play with my feline siblings under the sun
play badminton
jog until I couldn’t breathe
logon to Friendster and create slideshows
do pseudo-artistic stuff
read books and magazines
I envy them because I’m not the type of person who’ll always do “whatever it takes” to get something. Oftentimes, I’m not ambitious enough to step outside my comfort zone to just get out there and grab what I want. As I’ve said before, I have my moments of shyness and insecurity – unsure of what I can and cannot do, so I just wait for things to happen for me and credit them to “It’s not meant to be” if they never do.
I envy those people who can get away with murder and know it – those people who are bitchy and cocky enough to wallow in the fact that no matter how mean they are, they’d still be the life of the party the next day. I wonder how those people could live with themselves… Oh well, if it works for them, so be it… Good for them. As for me, well, green is so not my color! Hahahaha! J
Jelaineism #129: Sometimes, doing something that doesn’t make sense is the most sensible thing to do.
…it’s been months since I last visited my blog. Yeah, yeah… I feel bad about it. There’s just too much I want to share, but I just don’t have the time. Things have been über-hectic at work – just when you thought it can’t get any more toxic than it already is! Hahahaha! It’s cool though… my sisters and I are blending well with our new bro – too well if you’d ask me! Hahahaha! Imagine how we got even crazier and noisier… the Big Boss next door had to shush us.
I guess it really is the little things in life that gets you going. Laughter, friends, love… the best things in life are indeed free… J
Well, well, well, who would've thought that in spite of my condition last week, my weekend would be such a blast! Last Friday, we had an office party, which was soooooo much fun! I got to be one of the event's photographers (which I love doing, by the way), I laughed a lot -- thanks to our fabulous host, I got drunk (for free!), and I danced my butt off! To cap the night off, my honey and I ate our favorite calzone from Yellow Cab since we didn't do much eating at the party.
Come Saturday, I woke up to have an amazing breakfast of pinoy-style mami, which my beloved yaya prepared for me. She makes one nasty mami so I always end up overeating! Then, my honey and I went grocery-shopping with my mom tagging along and I went crazy buying ingredients for my pasta recipes and I was so excited to find that our local supermarket actually sells Bostik Blu-Tack! And guess what else I found... they actually have coloured Blu-Tack! Of course, I just had to buy one! Hahahaha! I'm such a kid!
Saturday night, my honey and I decided to celebrate the month that was. As much as it was stressful, we recently discovered that all the hard work and the stress that comes with it is all worth it. I recently learned that I'm now a certified Quality Professional with a rather impressive score (not just mediocre, hehehehe!) and that my honey, although she's a part of the youngest batch, has been consistently delivering great work. She even managed to be on the Top 10 for 3 consecutive weeks now. As such, she was awarded as "Most Improved Agent" by her coach at last Friday's party. I was like a proud mama when I took her picture! It was crazy! :) So then we decided to celebrate with a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon GatoNegro (Yup, even my wine of choice has a feline reference. Gato Negro means Black Cat), my favorite cheese, Camembert, and some cappuccino and hazelnut chocolates... trust me, that was heavenly. 
Let’s see…
Nagging cough
Stuffy nose
Body pains, especially my neck
Throbbing headache
It’s official. There goes my weekend… again.
It’s normally a Saturday and a Sunday. Normally, people go out to have fun as early as Friday night, knowing they could sleep in pretty much the whole day by Saturday. Normally, people go out-of-town to their favorite retreat. Some hang-out in coffee shops to read that book they’ve been dying to get their hands on for the past weeks or to catch up with friends they’ve never seen for months. Then of course you have the regular moviegoers – always updated on what is now showing, what the next attraction is, or even on those movies are coming soon. Others stay at home to do their favorite things – whether it’s watching reruns or having a DVD marathon, cooking a feast for the family or well, working out to relieve stress and stay fit. Normally, this is how people spend their rest days.
It’s been a while since I had a normal rest day. The past couple weeks I’ve spent catching up on my sleep only to find out there’s no such thing. I’ve also been spending my weekends recuperating from a terrible cough-and-flu combo-bordering-to-flu, and yeah, running errands. I wish this coming weekend would be a bit different. By then, I’m hoping that I’m feeling better, that I can sleep late but not the whole day, and still be able to do the thing I enjoy… You know, to actually have a rest day…
