My not-so-ordinary Thursday

The day actually started quite early and I even woke up before the alarm went off. When I sat up in bed, my arms had this tingling feeling and my tummy was indescribably loopy. (Don't ask me how that body part can get loopy.) And I got to my appointment on time... sort of. After an hour, I was able to get back home and rested for a couple of hours or so. Then I "prettified" myself again and escorted my second niece to her Recognition Day. It was quite fruitful... way more fruitful compared to my days of late.

I got to visit my alma mater, had a perfectly legitimate reason to dress up and wear makeup, took a lot of pictures, and spent some of my last rapidly vanishing pesos. It was quite an adventure.

This was yesterday. The sun was up in the morning. Clouds gathered and brought a slight drizzle in the afternoon. My cute nieces and I accompanied my father as he got some groceries after Cate received her official looking--but ultimately disposable--certificate. It was pretty low-key. But I had great fun. :D

The Dark Horse by Marcus Sedgwick

If you're one of my cyber friends, you'd think I barely read these days because of the lack of book posts I've done lately. But actually, I'm still at it... at a much slower pace, albeit. But I'm still at it. I'm just so overwhelmed with other stuff that I barely have time to write for fun, which I think is quite sad. Downright depressing sometimes, I tell you! Anyways, the last book I've finished--that I could still remember--is The Dark Horse by Marcus Sedgwick. I've had this book for years. You see, I collect books I think I want to read and just dump them in boxes whenever my bed becomes too crowded and start to smell like an old library. So I have tons of books I've had for years but never really read. Lately though, I've been rummaging inside the aforementioned boxes because people have been asking to borrow some of my books. And the nerd in me gets excited when I get to convince people to read... so rummaged the boxes, I did. And in ...

Pardonnez-moi

It has never been much of a secret to people, or to myself, that I can be quite brutal when stating facts. Sometimes, I'm just too impatient to find ways to skirt around hurtful words and just bluntly say things that pop into my head. In short, I'm usually tactless. Other times, I'm just plain careless. But contrary to what most people probably think of me, I don't like nudging people's sensibilities. I don't like stepping on other people's toes either. And this might be a hard concept to grasp, but some people do know how to make up their own minds... and stand by them--come hell or high water. And I am one of them. I don't know why?! But with every set of friends I make, this concept seems to be quite hard for them to swallow. Why?! I just want to dodge those seemingly inescapable monikers "bitch" or "ice queen" for a change. Is that so hard to comprehend?! Yes, I know. Some people find it irresistible to goad me because I'm a p...

Funny Day

This surprised me when I pressed "home" on my net browser.  Strange, but cute. ^_^ Grazie, Google! I guess? And no, I still don't celebrate it. Haha!
