Apaw

Hindi ko mapigil. Bumubulusok at nagpupumiglas ang mga salitang kay tagal kong ikinulong sa isip na kay tagal ko ding pinatay...pinatahimik. May muling kumiliti sa aking nakahandusay na diwa at inudyok akong magsulat ng kung ano, di ko ata mawari.

On second thought...

Alam ko na kung ano...

Ang walang kamatayan, ang walang kupas...

To Batangas and Back Again

Whew, what a long day! Kagagaling ko lang all the way from Batangas. Balikan! Rush rush kaya Im dead tired. But since this is my last day of VL, kelangan i- maximize ang araw, must find time to blog!

Yes, today is officially the last day of my oh soo exciting 3 day leave. Unfortunately, dahil sa kakulangan sa pananalapi, I did nothing. I just stayed at home and did nothing. Im not complaining though, doing nothing is better than being at work. I'd rather lie down the whole day and stare at my room's ceiling than be at work.

Well, it wasnt really that boring. I actually enjoyed it because Miguel and I spent a lot of time together. After ten trillion years, we were finally able to watch a movie(yes, even movies have become a luxury in my life and the chance that I get of being able to watch is considered a treat) - watched The Legend of Zorro. The movie was typical but still entertaining. We went crazy playing Daytona at the arcades too! I thought I was never going to beat Miguel but I finally did yesterday! I am the racing goddess! (Wag ka kumontra Miguelito!). We were also able to make pasyal in Tiendesitas last night. Tiangges make me go crazy!! Too bad I have no money, so I just feel crazy but still end up buying nothing. Hehehe. And to culminate the week, Miguel, my mother and I went to Batangas to visit my father's grave for Undas. I dont have time to go on November 1 cuz I have work on that day so I could only go there today. My lola and tita met Miguel (they met him before but he was still courting me that time) and Im soo happy cuz I could feel that they liked him. My tita was even egging us to actually settle down already if we both know and feel that its really "us" na. I did not expect to hear this from the people who always thought of me and see me as a child. Suddenly, its like they've finally realized that I am grown up and they're excited at the fact that I should be getting married already. I felt very happy that they feel this way. I also felt happy at the fact that my mother also wants to see me married already. Poor Miguel, he must have felt so pressured at the fact that my whole family seems to want me to be married to him already. But then, on our way back to Manila, while eating lunch at Jollibee (yes, my dear friends, in Jollibee! Unique!), he actually asked me if I want to get married already next year. Of course I said, YES! =) This isnt the first time that he asked me if I wanted to marry him but today, it felt soo real. The very first time he and I were together, everything felt right. I knew that he was the one I wanted to be with forever. I can't imagine living without him. I know that I am going to be happy as long I am with him. We both have our hurdles to overcome but going through them together makes all the difference.

Happy happy Mits. Nice feeling -- nice to blog about all this now.

Thoughts on Amazing Race 8

I finally found the time to watch Amazing Race 8 Family Edition. And I must say, having four people instead of the usual two has made the dynamics of the game much more interesting and even more challenging. Seeing couples argue and squabble before now seems corny after I've seen mothers panicking like crazy over cars losing gas and little kids actually trying to help out their parents carry supposedly wounded civil war soldiers to their bunks. Even if I've seen 8 seasons of the reality show, the new twist of having 4 family members in one team just makes it just as fresh as the first season.

Here are some of my favorite scenes from the 2nd pitstop of Amazing Race 8:

Gaghan Family

This is a picture of the family that brought their two kids as part of the team. In fairness, the kids didnt seem like extra baggage. There was even a time when the kid was actually suggesting to the father that they ask around for directions when they couldnt find the clue box at the Reflecting Pool which ended up to be the wrong pool anyways.

Rogers Family

This is the family that ended up losing in the 2nd leg of the race. The dad was such an ass. He was blaming his son all the time. It was actually his fault cuz he make them take the 30East when they should've taken the 30West. Oh well, that's why they lost.

Bransen Family

This team rocks! Its made up of the dad and his three daughters. The dad has a hard time keeping up with his 3 daughters but they still made it!

I have soo much more to say but time is up! (Once again, Im in an internet shop). Til the next episode then!
