italy saved my sunday...

... on our way home, still not sure if im already totally alright... i decided ill go straight to italy (norton st, ang lungga ng mga italiano)... i need a cup of latte!... its their fiesta... my housemates decided to come along as well... i thought id just have a cup of latte and everything will be alright... really alright...

oh, how good is this... everything went alright even before i had latte on my hand... huh?!

jaran...





plus jaran...





... hmmm... so cute inside as well... its pink! (literally pink!) hahahaha :)


... really so so so happy... happy... happy and happy...!!! (pero ouch sa bulsa, but who cares, im happy!)

we decided to have a walk... hmmm... oh well, more of a walk in search for food... the italians closed half of norton street for their fiesta thing... we ordered a plate of pasta, a sausage roll and bbqd baby octopus.... well, a bit of a feel of italy... then we had coffee... i was out of my mind, i wanted latte but i ordered cappuccino... oh well, its just the foam anyway, its good enough!... this time it dint take ages waiting for the bus... ooooppss, ruby realized we need to buy milk so i insisted we just drop by the marketplace (where target is)... and, needless to elaborate, we ended up wasting dollars in target...

... hmmm... weren't we suppose to have just a cup of coffee?!... oh well...

isnt life so ironic .... one moment your world is soaked in the ocean, the next moment you are in heaven!

(oh, i think i should mention here... thanks to mamurens for her concern of returning my call... i appreciate it mamu, really :)

God is the strength of my heart...

sunday... i woke up at about 9 with a very nasty feeling... nasty, nasty, nasty... for lack of a better word to describe it, not even a proper term to describe a feeling, not at all if, if you are a real writer, oh well, im not!...

to backtract a bit... saturday evening wasn't a good one at all... learned about a stupid stupid stupid stupid tale from a friend in pinas! (dont think its proper to narrate it here though...)... it made me so so so so sick.... suddenly, other negative thoughts hurried through my senses... crapper, not at this time!!!... but i just can't stop them, they just hurriedly invaded my nerves.... i wanted to cry... cry... cry... but no, i am strong, i am strong, i am strong... worst, i was reminded of things about my family, my friends, my life!... who would want to feel and think about all these.... i felt so alone... i felt so sad... really sad... i wanted to call my sister, i wanted to call my bestfriend... but it would mean at least $60 each coz i dont think i can hang up soonest... i dont have a card, my international call allocation in my plan is already exhausted... what should i do... well... im good at this.... when it comes to problems, im very talented in keeping them to myself and in pretending that nothing is wrong (except that i shut my mouth and be so quiet)... i kept my feelings to myself... i tried to distract my negative feelings by surfing the net, chatting with friends in sgv (thanks to sametime), researching for the cheapest flight to gold coast, checking the cheapest flight to pinas, while watching a gay movie in tv - all these i did until 2 am... i tried to escape from these negative feelings... i won't cry, i am strong... i closed my eyes and decided il go to mass first thing tomorrow...

yap, i woke up so early to go to mass... i realized, im not totally alone, yap, my messiah is waiting for me to unload my burden to him... it feels forever waiting for the bus... how can it be this long... God!... to be honest, i was more stressed than relieved listening to the priest, its not what he is saying, its just him, period... consecration came, and boom!... i wanted to cry again... no way, hold it, hold it,.... i went to communion... this time i cant help it anymore, i was so teary... good thing i was wearing my eyeglasses, at least my teary eyes weren't so obvious... but hey, i was suddenly relieved, were my burdens unloaded now?.... hmm... i very much think so!... no doubt, God is the strength of my heart.... silly thinking that i was alone... coz i was not...

freaky saturday...

thanks to that korean girlu in beuty culture for my happy feet... hmm... it makes me miss Mendez in greenbelt who of course does it a lot lot lot lot better...

oooppss... that wasn't the one that's freaky...

i went to gloria jean's to grab a regular white chocolate mocha courtesy of my frequency card... i thought of sitting there for a while and enjoy my mocha with john grisham's the broker before i head off to level 46 to finish those damn worksheets.... (shoot, its a saturday, i know!)... after a while, the white guy next to me started talking to me... wuw, friendly, huh?!... why would i want to talk to a stranger... oh well, let's give it a try... we exchanged few words, but not really very few, well, he was very pleasant and so was I... shoot, i gotta go... what's odd was, it scared me when he asked for my number... i feel like he might be a serial killer or sort of that (i know, a very crazy thought!)... and that senseless thought scared me... i gotta go... freaky?! ( i don't know)...

comedy friday...

with ruby, kelvin, kylie and ben...












... at first i was a bit hesitant about wasting my dollars this friday night at a comedy bar... haven't been to one before (of course, i mean here in sydney!).... i was really worried about not being able to twig silly jokes... i remember going to a comedy bar in the US and ended up laughing with the crowd even if i totally dint get that very american joke... its not the english of course, its just too american... oh well, charge $20 to experience, that's it!...

oh well, i deserve a good laugh this friday to forget about those stupid tsekwas who i literally wanted to soak in boiling water.... grrrrr!!!!...

...good thing!!!!! the show was really soooooo funny and entertaining!... you just can't stop laughing and laughing and laughing.... perfect gag!!!... it wasnt too australian (by that i mean, aussie terms and slangs)... easy to hit jokes off!

...another good thing - we met new friends kylie and ben - really cool dudes!


...oh, im an auditor, if its not documented, its not done... an audit evidence - my ticket...

jaran...!!! (in other words, remembrance... hahaha corny...)

the wednesday i waited for...

aaaaarrrrgggghhhhh....

did i really wait for this day?! darn!

this seems to be the looongest day ever... its like every second lasts a minute... at 11 am... my brain cells are already at home... darn, i should be working, i should be working... but i just cant.... crapper!!!!... it took 10 years before my watch finally pointed to 530 pm... finally, i can now pack up and start hiking back home...

so what is this crap all about --- its simply.... i miss sgv!!! huh?! yah, honestly, this engagement makes me really miss sgv... deep in my heart i know why... in short, d ako masaya sa engagement na to... oh well, just this one... after this week, i'll be happy again... truly happy again...

i can't wait for wednesday...

this day is really a very very tiring tuesday... im so stuffed since yesterday!

... there's one good (?) thing about this client though and that is - i'm forced to have an exercise, but i think is too much of one!... hmm... imagine my monday: with a laptop on my shoulder, a book on my right hand, a paper bag of yummies and my purse on my left hand, (good thing i was wearing flats), i run to cross the street trying to catch the damn bus driven by a blind drongo who literally pushed his pedal when i waived! sh*t, he was really blind, oh?!, was i too dark that he dint see me!... that was just the start of my trail... there's still this tunnel that i have to go through, need to catch the train, and another set of kilometers to hike, oh well, relax its just monday!...

come tuesday: what the hell is wrong with these cars blocking this silly bus... to cut it short, i missed the train and have to wait for another 10 minutes for the next one (my effort of stretching my legs to double my leaps is a total nonsense!)... thanks to my guardian devil who insist that i get a cup of latte from prep...oh well!...

i can't wait for wednesday...

oh well...

"life is full of interruptions and complications... and there is nothing more complicated than love...!" the firs time i heard this, i already thought it is true...

and today, i'll say it again.... "it's true"!... love is really soooooo damn complicated...

oh well, its simply... love!

huh?!

jollibee longganisa meal...

since i've been here down under, i always get up early on weekends, i always go out coz i dont want to bore myself at home with open eyes! this is super opposite of my weekend routine in pinas, except of course if its busy season (when im always early coz i just go home to take a bath! hm!)... today is an exception of a down under sunday --- i got up minutes before 12! ... huwat!!!! shoot, i miss calling jollibee to deliver my lunch.... hay....
