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.

Can't Help But Wait-Trey Songz

[Intro:]
I can't help but wait
Ohh uh
Can't help but wait
Check it out

[Verse 1:]
I see you, you're with him
He ain't right but you don't trip
You stand by, while he lies
Then turn right 'round and forgive

I can't take to see your face, with those tears run down your cheeks
But what can I do
I gotta stay true
'Cause deep down I'm still a G

[Bridge:]
And I don't wanna come between you and your man
Even though I know I treat you better than he can

[Hook:]
Girl I can't help but wait
'Til you get that with him, it don't change
Can't help but wait
'Til you see that with me it ain't the same
Can't help but wait
'Til you, see you, for what you really are
Baby girl you are a star
And I can't help but wait

[Verse 2:]
Listen, it ain't fresh to just let him call the shots
You're a queen, you should be, getting all that someone's got
You should be rocking the latest in purses, bracelets, and watches, your worth
Much more than an occasional "I love you"
I'm thinking of you

[Bridge:]
And I don't wanna come between you and your man (No)
Even though I know I treat you better than he can

[Hook:]
Girl I can't help but wait
'Til you get that with him, it don't change
Can't help but wait
'Til you see that with me it ain't the same
Can't help but wait
'Til you, see you, for what you really are
Baby girl you are a star
And I can't help but wait

[Brakedown:]
Get it together
You can do better
See is believing
And I see what you need so
I'm gone play my position
Let you catch what you've been missin'
I'm calling out

[Hook:]
Girl 'cause I can't help but wait
'Til you get that with him, it don't change
Can't help but wait
'Til you see that with me it ain't the same
Can't help but wait
'Til you, see you, for what you really are
Baby girl you are a star
And I can't help but wait [x2]

[Outro:]
Oh - can't help but wait, babe
No-no-no-no-no-no
I can't help but wait
Oh-oh-oh, can't help but wait
No, no, no

Mean Girls and Gossip Folks

Tonight, I found out that someone started a rumor about me being 7 mos. pregnant. How can that be when I've had my period every month? Fenel texted me this info at excatly midnight of Sept. 21. Somehow, being the subject of many a gossip folk's rumor no longer bothers me. It's the most common sin of mankind: LYING and GOSSIP.

If you were to believe all the rumors ever spread about me, I'd have live a over a hundred lifetimes for I am nowhere close to the woman they assume me to be.Insecurity + jealousy + envy = the ingredients of a meanie and gossip folk.Don't even get me started with the numerous schemes and plans these folks would do just to gain publicity and attention. They pride themselves in being invited to every major Embassy, Alchemy, Ascend, Warehouse 135, Fiamma, Temple or Jaipur event; thinking that by being sen in these "synagogues to Satan", they are part of the in-crowd or are deities living atop Mount Olympus.

I will let God guide me into accepting the fate of this "woe-be-gones"Such a pity to see women from respectable and decent families act immature and waste their breath on rumors that have no proof and basis. They don't know me; do they even know THEIRSELVES? Before God created them in their mothers' wombs, Satan worked triple shifts to make sure these "Babies" will be trapped and cursed into a life bred from evil. No one can save them now except maybe God but unless they THEMSELVES choose to change; there shall be no promise of salvation for the mean girl/gossip folk.

Who would want to spend all eternity in hell? I sure don't. I learned my lesson. To cure one's self of addiction to lying and gossipping, they must eat spicy food every time they lie or gossip. One more thing about meanies and gossip folks is that they have no conscience or guilt. They will do their best to inflict emotional, mental and physical pain to their victims. The best way to seek revenge is thru prayer. I always tell myself that i must not stoop down to their level.
