Blogger Format

There's something wrong with Blogspot. How come every time I set the format of my blog- like captions under the photos in small font, and the font sizes of the other parts of the blog, it doesn't work?! After I publish it, the format changes. Ugh. Frustrating. This is one reason why I'd like to move to Tumblr. T.T

annoyed with the formatting problem,

Stroll Date

I woke up to Elwin's call. I waited for him to arrive and we'd have lunch here at home together. The weather wasn't looking too good, but I showered right after lunch. It took me quite a while to prepare, Elwin said he had fallen asleep from waiting for me. Sorry. x)


So it was drizzling and we rode the jeepney to SM. We got to SM at around 2pm I guess. We were to make the most out of it, we had until 4pm since I have a 4:30pm Saturday class (IT32: Logic Design).


So we went around. And I went back to check out So Fab! shoe shop. My grandmother gave me birthday money last week to buy two pairs of flats we saw at that store. I went and bought the white Fabiola flats, I didn't buy the blue one with the same design even though my grandmother gave me money for it as well. No more size 8, so I settled with size 7- satisfied!  


I had Elwin taste the ridiculously expensive hotdog sandwich from Monster Franks. I first tasted it with Mara, we shared on hotdog sandwich on Princess' graduation day. I think it was called Beef Frank, had onion, cheese, ketchup, mayo, mustard, pickle, and hot sauce. But I had my order done without pickles and mustard, extra cheese and onions. :) As expected, Elwin love it, but he hated the price though- 99php. We then walked to Taco's and I ordered a whole beef quesadillas and Elwin went at Liquidz to go buy our iced tea. :) It was a fun day just the two of us, enjoying our snacks. We clearly both missed times like that. 


After snack time, we strolled around some more. It was all about me window shopping, apparently Elwin enjoy's seeing me enjoy window shopping. Sweet! I know, right? :D I'm happy. lol. I wanted to buy some accessories, but the ones I had my eyes on were pricey. Expression of the day: "Are you kidding me?!" haha.


It was 4pm and we went on a jeepney ride to Ayala. When we got there, we had to transfer on a different ride. We got in another jeepney, one that would take me to school when Holly called, she said classes were suspended and dad was telling me to go get in a mall. We hurriedly got down from the jeepney which was about to go already. It was very windy and the weather wasn't looking good. Leaves flew pass me, others without missing my face. We got in the mall safe.


We strolled some more, and to my dismay, my classmates said classes were on. Good news: exam got moved to next week, bad news: we had an activity, no make up for that one. Boo! 

We strolled some more and I was able to buy a top from TopShop, 459php, Ewlin picked the color for me- pink. He wants me to wear the top on next Saturday's date. We also had Wild Rice. Elwin has been wanting to taste Wild Rice. We went around some more, I wanted to buy thick tights that could pass up as jeans, but I haven't found the right one yet. Elwin also tried on some gorgeous polo shirts, they didn't have his size though. I also bumped into Danica Sucalit in the dressing room. It was a bit awkward, she was carrying her baby and she kept saying to him "where's daddy? wehere's daddy?". I just heard from my dad that she now has a child (or so it's safe to assume).


Holly and dad picked us up at the Oh George pick up point. Holly had quite of a long day (afternoon), she wasn't in the best mood. x) But it was a bit funny. We gassed up and picked up mom, lola, and tita Inday from their novena thing and mass. Off to SM again for dinner at Chikaan. We saw Harrison Chiu there. It was nice to have dinner out with my family and boyfriend. :) We love the scallop at Chikaan.


After dinner, Elwin and I took a cab to McD I.T. Park to meet up with them Anne. When we got there, only Mara, Anne, and Fritz were there. Junel left to walk Princess to work. We went to La Marea for some dessert. Junel arrived after bringing Princess to work. We stayed a bit, had Brownie Cups and Sans Rival. After the chit chats we were homebound. Elwin stayed with Junel for a bit. Fritz drove Anne's car to main, to where his car was. He left with Mara and I drove Anne's car to my place.


It was a fun date with Elwin and a happy dinner with my family. It was nice seeing my friends for a bit. I am blessed, truly blessed. Thank you Lord. 


contented,

Tumblr: Pringles08

So I've been away for a while. I've created a Tumblr account, Pringles08, and right now it feels as if I've been cheating my blog Haven (here). 

It's tempting to blog there since it's so easy to manage and everything's just there. There's a tab for almost everything- quotes, photos, conversations, and all others. But I'd still love to keep blogging here. I have a more secure feeling with blogging here. I feel blogging at Tumblr is good for something short-term, but in terms of long-term plan, like really keeping my archives and saving each blog entries, I just feel it's safer here. I can't justify why, can't explain why, it's just how I feel.

So welcome me back my Haven! I'm coming home! :) 

I'll stick to the original plan, I'll blog here substantially and blog for the sake of blogging over at Tumblr. I'd like to see to it that I have an everyday entry over at Tumblr. 

Very tempting to move over there, but like I said, I feel more secure here, plus, I've made a commitment here. Check out my first blog entry for the said "commitment".

coming home,

PS: Boyfie has a Tumblr account too. :D wee~ I kind of have something to do with it. hihi.

PSS: I have a lot of blog entries to make up for. :) Want to keep those memories for future reading. ;)

Wild Rice

So today at our CS130: DataBase 1 class, our group reported. Thank you Lord I wasn't able to speak infront of the class. I know it's bad, being a member of the group, being the leader of the group, but I just couldn't do it. To even try and greet my classmates a good morning infront of the class was soooo hard already for me, how much more reporting. Thank you Isaac B. for saving our group. We're not close, but I'm thankful for what he did, reporting and preparing the whole presentation again.

I went to CDU with Theodore to have osme Wild Rice for lunch, also ordered take out for friends back in the Main Campus. Our order was a "special order" since they were already out of rice but Janet bought rice from another nearby stall for our orders. After eating, we helped her clean up by doing the dishes. We brought Janet home to change and dropped her off the Main Campus while Theodore and I went home to drop the car off. We took the jeepney to USC main. As we were walking to the Law Building, we bumped into Fritz and so he went with us. I brought the goodies and gave it to those I promised it to. They all shared with their friends and classmates. Too bad Mara missed out on the wild rice I brought though. :( 


Theodore later left with Puntual. Fritz and I were just there hanging by their green couch on the lobby place with Chang and Elvis popping out from time to time. I ranted to Fritz about my uncle J, haha! Sorry Fritz! We later decided to wait for Mara at the parking lot to go and check on Sky. Finally! I've been wanting to go to Sky. Sky was crying when we got to her. She was hungry, I went and bought Sky Flakes for her and met with Mara along the way.

We were in Fritz's car and off to Anney's! But Sky peed on Mara's lap, at the spot where a person looks like she peed in her pants. Boo. So I grabbed Sky from Fritz since he was driving. Mara still didn't resist Sky and got her back.

At Anney's we tried to hide Sky from her ama. It was a short stay. We went out as her father (Mr. George) arrived. We were on the rode when Fritz realized he left his glasses and so he made a quick U-turn. I went down to grab his glasses as they wait outside. Got it and we were off to my place. I got dropped off and they went home.

I thought I'd be out tonight. I was kinda looking forward for something to happen, but nothing did. Hmmm... maybe next time. I was home around 7pm, the good thing about that was I was sure my boyfriend would be happy I was home already. :)

there's a next time,

Odd Day, Sad Ending

The day started out with us going to our downtown adventure. Anne and I took the cab to USC main to meet up with Mara, Chang, Fritz, Vanessa, and Chinchin. Mara's friends, most of them we just recently met. Anne was able to buy 3 bracelets, for birthday presents. I wasn't able to buy anything at all. I had in mind F.R.I.E.N.D.S. DVD but I wasn't able to find any.


After the short trip, we again rode a cab home for lunch. I thought there'd be six of us but there was only 4- Anne, Mara, Fritz, and me. We over prepared lunch I bet, oh well. We also watched Iron Man on HBO while waiting for lunch.

We were off to main in Anne's car, which I drove (I love driving for her of course). Fritz's hands has been itching to get his hands on the computer to play. We played Counter Strike. It was my second time playing the game, technically first since when I played with my cousin it was all blurred out and I think lasted for a split second. We played Left for Dead first, then Counter Strike. I did enjoy it, but other guys went in our "private server" with Fritz's 123 password. I really hated the trash talk, especially the ones by the two young boys. Boo!


Pass 2:30pm, Mara, Fritz, and Sarah were late for their German class. Anne and I went up to the Law Building's library and before we were able warm the seats, we left for USC-TC. Elwin text messaged me about attending my class, I wanted to skip it but he said I shouldn't. We don't really do anything significant, no attendance, and he sends out the ppt to us anyways. Before going to school we picked up Jon and went to buy dog food at Dog Palace.


4:30pm, I was at our room and class is about to begin. I didn't have Anne and Jon sit-in since I wanted to just go out by 6:15pm. We all planned to watch UP 3D at SM, 7:25pm show instead of the originally planned 9:05pm last full show since Mara needed to get home early. After answering the activity for IT32, I went out and we were rushing to SM.


I dropped off Anne and Jon at the entrance and I went to park the car. I met with them at KFC, we all ordered take out. We went to the movie house and got our tickets. Rice meals weren't allowed inside so we had to eat them just right out the movie house. That was definitely something new! After the meal I decided to order a hotdog meal or some sort at The Big City, we were late at seeing the movie because of that and because I had to leave and turn in my camera. Boo! I'm so sorry. Mikko went with us to have dinner outside the cinemas and see the movie with us too.

eating outside the cinemas

UP 3D was okay, nothing amazing. Mara slept through some parts of the movie and I closed my eyes in some parts as well. The ticket for that cost 250php, more than the usually ticket price.

Jon, Allie, Mikko

After the movie we didn't know where to go. We are quite a bunch of indecisive people. We did "twenty one" to see who'd choose. Anne was 21 and chose Cabanas for karaoke, we've been wanting to hear Elvis sing. Mara said Fritz really isn't into those, but we wanted to change that. Plus, he doesn't have to sing, he can just listen. Cabana's was packed, no parking and a lot of waiting customers. Anne decided we'd go to their place. She text messaged her auntie Zenny, sudden change of plans. We were off to my place. Anne's ama was in a really bad mood. After everyone got in my room, Anne left hurriedly to avoid a more heavy scolding from her ama.

Pajero: Jon and Fritz

Yaris: Anne and Allie

I ordered 2 boxes off pizza from Gustuso's and played the F.R.I.E.N.D.S. DVD for them to watch. Laugh here and there. Pizza just arrived and Fritz just got online with my laptop, he's mother suddenly called asking for him. He did say her tone of voice was calm, but it was unusual that his mother would look for him. Although I still think it would have been better if he mentioned to his mom earlier about where he was. Elvis, Mara, and Fritz left. Mara was also in danger of scolding. Jon finished the two slices of pizza left, I had Fritz bring home the unopened box Elvis was already able to eat a few slices before leaving. After the two slices and after some quality time with Miggy, he took a cab home.


I was alone now, feeling sorry, sad, and depressed. Boo! Just sad.




not so happy after all,
