Know Your Phobias

Christmas Wish List

Since it's already 15 days before Xmas and I'm still undecided as to what to ask as a present, I guess I will just let those who want to give me a present be the ones to decide. I do have a wish list, though, but I doubt if I'll ever get any of the items in here:

My Xmas Wish List

1. Steve Berry novels (available at all Powerbooks and National Bookstore outlets)
2. Philippa Gregory novels (available at all Powerbooks and National Bookstore outlets)
3. a pair of light blue Ipanema G2B sandals (available at Rustan's Makati)
4. a pair of gold Crocs Malindi flats (availableat Rustan's and Crocs stores)
5. a visit to Manila Ocean Park
6. a set of Crayola gel pens (available at Toy Kingdom & Rustan's)

Preferably, that's it. I wanted something else but I can't be asking for the same thing as one of my siblings. Guess I'd have to sacrifice. Besides, it's in the thought that comes with the gift. Presents need not be expensive. It's actually self-explanatory why I'm asking for these gifts.

Pinoy Fear Factor

Pinoy Fear Factor premiered last night after " I Love Betty La Fea" at ABS-CBN. Jose happens to be one of the 12 participantsand he's competing against celebs (Phoemela Baranda and LJ Moreno). Since PFF was pre-recorded, I bet Jose and his fellow participants already know who won. It's up to us to find out who was hailed El Ultimo Participante by tuning in every night.

Yesterday, Mom and I watched "Quantum of solace"at ATC. "Casino Royale" was beteer than this for me. Personally, I'm not a fan of Daniel Craig. Among all the 007 movies I've seen, I like "Die Another" and "Tomorrow Never Dies". Pierce Brosnan portrayed 007 then and Halle Berry became one of his Bond girls. It was also my bf and I's 16th month as a couple.We'll be celebratig it by going out on a date at the last Saturday of November.We plan to watch "Australia" starring Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman.

Towards The End Of Another Year

While watching TV last night, I saw the TV ad that announced "Pinoy Fear Factor"'s 12 participants. To my utter amazement, one of them is Jose Sarasola; my HS schoolmate during Marymount days and also the guy who has been the major reason for many of my tearful, sleepless nights back in HS. We bumped into each other at ATC (VMV Hypoallergenics and Shiseido area)last Halloween. Who knows what he'd be up to next? He was a Candy cutie, Cosmo bachelor, forner gag show "Wazzup, Wazzup" 's Sweetest Zupista and commercial model for Oishi Oheya, Mountain Dew and Wendy's Garden Fresh Salads.

The grand prize winner of "Pinoy Fear Factor" will take home a whopping 2 million pesos plus house & lot . It wouldn't hurt to show him support even if it's because he used to be one of my crushes. I consider him a friend who made me know how to mend a wounded heart, accept rejection and battle frustration. A guy like Jose is truly unforgettable because he has that smile that never fails to enchant women who are fortunate enough to be in his presence.

"Pinoy Fear Factor" will start airing November 10, Monday night at ABS-CBN's Primetime Bida. All scenes and episodes were shot on location at Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Feel So Good

Thank you, Lord God for making it sunny with light rainshowers yesterday. Julius and I exchanged koalas, had a great time together then went to SM Southmall. We purchased a green, medium-sized shirt for my bro's 20th birthday. Our lunch were seafood hot pot, kakiage tempura, katsudon with miso soup and 2 bottomless red iced teas. That were all available at Rai Rai Ken, UG, SM Southmall. Both of us would certainly dine there again. Good thing we were able to avoid the traffic going home. We went to ATC and sang a few songs at Timezone's videoke booth. He treated us both to NYFD giant fries with 3 dips: lemon herb, pesto and ranch. So absolutely yummy and we enjoyed it better with iced teas from The Tea Square ( ATC Promenade near Cinderella and British India).

When we got home, Tita Ronnie, Ate Nice, Kuya Bong, Tita Linda, Tito Mitchie and Ate Chin were here to greet me and Julius. Julius hitched a ride home with Tita Ronnie and company. Tita Linda, Tito Mitchie and Ate Chin had dinner with us at home last night. On Thursday, my bf Julius and I will meet up at APC for the Open House and Commerce Week festivities. I'd be inquiring if my Marketing & Advertising subjects will be credited if I shift to BS Tourism Management.
