My girl crush that is.

Blake Lively!

Gorgeous. Perfection.

At least physically, for me. I don’t know but I believe it is her who is the most beautiful and sexiest woman in Hollywood and in the world heehehe….

I can’t find any part of her that’s not perfectly gorgeous. Her eyes, hair, lips, nose, legs (oh wow!), her gorgeous breasts hehhhe yeah they’re the perfect size, perfect shape and oh-so-real you can tell…..

I even like her fashion sense…

This is just wow! If I’m a man, I’d definitely go for her… Lucky Penn Badgely. Hmmp!

And this! That b@stard is so damn lucky…

I can turn into a lesbian for you Blake. Just tell me.

Been really busy these past days….. Busy going places to buy materials for my new project…..

I’m finally going to be doing something I love…

Let’s see where this will bring me…

I hope in a good place…

Just a little hint of what my new project is….

Going full blasts very soon!

Wish me luck!

I destroyed the design I know…..

I’m trying to fix this…

I hope I’d be able to soon as this looks awkward…

Panget! Kakahiya!

When I saw the photos of when we were in Tagaytay, it somehow pinched me.

My cheeks, so chubby! I’m not comfortable with it.

Decided that this time I will do it.

I’ll try to lose some weight. I need to. I need to feel more confident.

I decided to cut my servings of rice. I go all out with rice these past years. When I eat with my family, I eat more than usual.

So I’m trying what worked for me the first and last time I did lost weight successfully, which was around eight to nine years ago…

Limit rice to 2 tbsp to none at all the better. Eat more fish, grilled bangus specifically. The first time I lost 20-30 lbs I started by eating grilled bangus and no rice. Since I wasn’t used to not eating rice then, to feel satisfied I usually eat half or one whole piece of that fish.

My weight went on a limbo since then. Good thing I didn’t go back to being as overweight as before.

4 days and counting…..

Yes four days now. I started Tuesday. I have since grilled a total of 3 big whole pieces of bangus, with salsa in the tummy. I have eaten countless number of eggs. Very little rice. So far I got used to it. I’m not craving for it that much.

Changes.

I’m seeing changes in my body. That’s a good thing about my body. I only need to cut back on rice for one whole day and I’ll notice my body will lose some plumpness heheheh….. So doing it for 4 days now looks so good…

I hope I don’t lose this will I currently have. I need to do this for a change. I don’t need something to distract myself from this…

So far I’m doing good.

Please no jinx for me here heheheh…..

Just something light…..

Prosthetics and the likes in US are very nice! When I first saw these photos I was like, “Wow, who’s this?” Then I had to read the name of who that is for me to recognize them….

Another comparison to how they do it here in local entertainment…

Ryan Reynolds, husband of Scarlett Johansson

This is from a movie he did a few years ago… I had a tiny crush on him when I saw his movie with Sandra Bullock in The Proposal. Hahahah! He’s still cute and charming while being so plump.

Nicole Kidman. Didn’t see the movie that’s why. Even if I stare at her in this photo, I still can’t recognize her. Thank you fake nose.

Mike Myers.

So tabachingching! But I definitely wouldn’t want him close hehehe….

Mariah Carey.

I did recognize her, after staring at the photo for a while. This just looks so far from the usual glamorous Mimi the whole world is used to seeing…. Kudos to her for being brave enough for letting the whole world see her in the opposite of her usual self.

By the way, I think I have a soft spot for celebrities in fat suit. Here’s Monica of Friends, the best comedy show EVER.

Of course with the love of her life, Chandler. Oh I love him too.

So adorable Gwyneth Paltrow… In Shallow Hal. Fun movie.

So adorable!

Just want to share something….

We bought this a few days ago…

The surprise?

This.

A papaya with only one piece of seed. Pretty weird hehehe…..

Not two, not three but one.

Hahah! Life as weird as this papaya…..

Yeah it’s the situation now….

Most of the time it’s close to perfection when no other factors are concerned but that’s not how the world goes…

So this time it’s not doing fine.

It’s a lose-lose situation.

Compromise? Not sure it’s possible for someone with a close mind.

Better not to think about it.

Just go on, a day at a time.

“Being brokenhearted is like having a broken pair of ribs: on the outside it looks like there’s nothing wrong. But what no one knows is that every single breath hurts.”

Like anything else, this too shall pass.

EDIT:  30 March 2010

So it’s been 6 months now since I signed up with JustHost in Oct 2009. To be honest I only signed up for 6 months so if ever they suck I could transfer to a new web host and I won’t feel like I’m a prisoner there because I have to stay because I paid for it. I signed up with JustHost in October 2003 after doing some research/browsing online. I wanted to read first whatever good and bad things real people has to say about different web hosts. I came to a conclusion that I rarely find anything negative written about JustHost and after checking their prices etcetera, I decided to sign up. Only for 6 months, so if ever they suck, I’ll transfer to another web host.

Now that the 6 months has expired, I renewed my account for another TWO YEARS. I am pleased. I accidentally deleted my blog before and had no back up (I learned my lesson now) and they helped me retrieve it. And fast.

They are also able to respond fast to some preferences of mine, like payment method. Will blog for any update soon. I want to wait if everything will be smooth.

I guess that is the best way to tell just how pleased I am, by staying longer, now for two years.

So far so good. I’m loving Just Host.

I’ve always admitted that I’m not a techie.

I didn’t even know what a domain is until recently.

So I learn by bugging people around with my question and by trying how things work myself.

Just a over an hour ago, I was trying to make a subdomain for a new project of mine.

I didn’t know how it happened but I somehow deleted this blog and made a website.

I got nervous and can’t believe it. I felt my hands and feet turn so cold.

I didn’t know what to do. I contact their Support, (eventhough I was a little hesitant because of my previous Customer Service hell experiences I had from other companies) sent an email, talked to an agent(?) then they got it back!

Being the techie phoebe that I am, I didn’t even know it’s possible. I really thought I’ve lost it.

See I’m not a very patient person. If I want something, if possible, I want it done, FAST.

I only waited a few minutes and they answered my call and get it back.

Thanks to Archie, Peter, Alex, and Brandon!

I’m glad this encounter with Customer Service is nice. Very helpful.

Needless to say, I’m happy with JustHost.

If you want to take my word for it then here… Click this and have peace of mind knowing your site or blog is secured….

Edit: 24 February 2010 (After almost 5 months with JustHost)

P.S. I’m writing this because I want to. I’m that impressed. I could totally recommend them. I don’t recommend just llike that because I don’t wanna be embarrassed if the stuff or program sucks. If you want to take my word for it here , it’s up to you guys.

Yup, After 8 months with JustHost, I haven’t had any problem again… And I’m even more confident to recommend them to anyone who’s looking for a reliable and affordable web host. Enjoy!

Be with someone who’s proud to have you OR

Someone who keeps on telling people you guys are just friends?

I know… B*Ll$H!t right?

There’s this person I know. He’s a local celebrity. Not THAT popular but he is known by Filipinos. There was a time when he was really popular.

Now, he’s there but most of the time you don’t even notice him.

This guy, I’ve known him since year 2003 and I thought I knew him quite well. I’m a fan of very few artists and I can say I’m a fan of his. He is really talented.

yeah you “eated” it.

There are many talented artists around but what makes some stand out is their attitude. I know he is nice. It’s just that I didn’t know a side of his personality until recently.

He was in a ten year relationship with his now ex-girlfriend. Ten years! A very long time. Alright, given that it didn’t work out, can you please wait a few months before getting in a new relationship? Or whatever you may call it?

This guy, after a very short period of time, started showing people around that he is dating a new girl. He actually only admitted the break up with the ex so people won’t see it wrong when he’s seen with this new girl.

He said their “just friends who are enjoying each other’s company”.

If I’m the ex-girlfriend who spent ten freaking long years with you and you cannot wait for a few months to be with someone else, then what kind of guy did I spend my ten years with?

Now after a few months, he was interviewed again, the show announced that he admitted to be in a relationship with this new girl. I thought, well, what’s new to announce? Everybody knows about it already. It will just be a formalization kind of admission.

Then in the interview, he again, ran around in bushes. Said, we’re friends, we enjoy each other’s company B-$sh!t again. Then he was asked, “So is she your girlfriend?” He replied, “Uhhh, well I have a lot of girl friends, I guess you could call it that.” C’mon!!!!!!!!

When you were new in local show business, they asked you if you were committed, you said, “No, I’m free. My girlfriend and I broke up already.” Turned out to be a big lie as that relationship continue for six years more.

Bottom line.

Don’t lie.

You’re no hearthrob. People appreciate you because of your talent,not because of your personal life.

As for the ex-girlfriend, I feel you girl. Ten years and he cannot even wait a few weeks to replace you. I’d hate to be you right now.

My boyfriend, every time he introduces me to anyone, he always say oh so proudly that I’m his girlfriend. Says it with a proud smile. Recently, he even jokingly said I am already his wife, then said future wife. When he was chatting to his sister, he told her that I will be her sister in law.

Any woman would want to be in a secured relationship. You know a man is serious with the relationship, first sign is his admission of what you guys have. If he is denying it, be ready for a heartbreak.

I still appreciate his talent. But it’s a different level now. I’m so disappointed with a part of his personality. Maybe he’s just a guy being a guy. It’s just that I thought he was different.

I am a woman too. I’m hurt because of what you did to your ex. I despise what you did to her.

I can’t and won’t accept it if the guy I’m with will keep whatever we have in darkness.

“In love, what matters is not your success, but your significance.”

I’d ONLY choose to be with THE GUY who is proud to call me HIS.

Date: 07 November 2009
Location: House (Bacoor), Tagaytay Picnic Grove

The day before, we were already preparing the food and things we will be needing in our little get together. We cooked and baked. Marinated and packed.

Then I cooked Kare-Kare in the morning, so it’s freshly cooked.

We were a bit late on schedule as we originally planned to leave the house around 0800H, so we should be there by 0930H. We ended up living the house at 1030H. Hahaha! I know.

We didn’t drive in Emilio Aguinaldo Highway (what?! highway? yes, it’s a highway, traffic infested highway) as it would take us hours to get to Tagaytay because from our house, the traffic zones are a lot. To mention a few, Puregold in Imus Palengke, Robinson’s Imus, Kostal Wet Market, Salitran, Waltermart and Robinson’s Dasma. So we headed to the village’s back gate, to Molino. Molino straight to Paliparan in
Dasma then we exit to Emilio Aguinaldo Highway close to Robinson’s Dasma. There! That’s a tip for others going to Tagaytay from Bacoor and Manila area.

When we reached Silang, Cavite the clouds are so dark we were worried there’s heavy rain in Tagaytay.

When we got there it was obvious it rained there. So it was so cold. When we stopped by 7 Eleven to buy something, I can’t move at all, that cold.

We got to Picnic Grove around 1200 noon, too late from original plan, I was worried there’s no hut available left. Parking was not easy to find. Specially one close to the huts. We searched for a hut and found one. It was so far from where we were parked we had to pay some guys to carry our stuff to the hut.

So pretty…..

So after the guys brought our stuff to the hut, we started to settle in. We fixed our grill and started grilling. We were getting so hungry.

It was also raining a bit…. With winds so strong…..

Grilled Bangus there! And chicken wings!

This surprisingly is the hit! I was the one surprised the most as this turned out so well when I didn’t even have a recipe to follow, I just mixed in a little bit of everything to the marinade.

So yummy even my cutie niece can’t get enough of it…

Pia’s another cutie photo….

Kare-Kare. I forgot to bring the Bagoong, left it in the car. It was good we didn’t need the Bagoong.

Perfect with tutong. Btw, I loooove tutong. The brown and chewy type.

We loved the chicken wings and Kare-Kare so much, we forgot the Grilled Bangus hehehheh…..

And our dessert…..

Mocha Chiffon Cake with No-Melt Butter Icing….

After the hearty meal, we rested for some minutes then took photos of ourselves. Good thing I brought our tripod, all of us are in the frame.

Here’s my beautiful Mommy.

Myself not included.

All of us here…. Great view!

Then three of us…..

Then we decided to pack our stuff as it’s getting late…. After we went around in the site’s Eco Trail…

On our way up, we saw these beautiful flowers for sale on the side… So many of these in Tagaytay…

Pia got sleepy while I was holding her. She’s unbelievably heavy for her size! She’s really heavy…

Thanks Mommy for taking this photo.. Then we started the EcoTrail…. We passed by Zipline’s station? It’s the newest attraction in Picnic Grove together with Cable Car.

Hindi ko to kaya talaga, lalo na mag-isa….

It’s so high. Just looking at it, lumalambot ang tuhod ko hehehhe…..

Looks like she’s touching the rainbow here.

So sweet! Or so scared? Hehehhe….

And the cable car…..

It’s so high so for someone like me who’s scared of heights, then this ain’t easy to do….

Ganda o!

Nice greens.

The trail.

Then we passed through the wooden hanging bridge, I got nervous because it doesn’t look strong enough for the people passing through it. It’s starting to rot too, due to frequent rains…. they should have built a much stronger one. The wood looked like it’s gonna break anytime. No photos of the bridge as I was out of my mind from being nervous.

It’s raining lightly too.

Then we reached the part wherein we have to go up again and pass our hut. It’s high reason why when we reached the middle part, everybody needed a rest hehehheh….. So we had more time for photos…..

And Mommy in hut….

Then my turn…..

Nice view….

Since it’s getting dark already, we decided to continue going up in the tiring stairs….

Kakapagod!

The we passed by this area where a few hours ago, lots of kids and their dads were flying their kites….

Nice area for families to set up their mats in and eat there….

All in all, it was a very nice day…. Fun and I we truly enjoyed the day…. Yummy food, nice cool weather, family’s company, great view, not so expensive so it doesn’t hurt the pocket so much so nice very nice!

I could totally recommend this to others.

This is what Filipino families need to be doing again…. Most families are so used to going to the mall and not in touched with nature anymore.

People should do this again, for a change.
