Mel did not ditch the plane!

Today, I could not stop talking to Jethro. She and I kept on talking about anything and everything since a lot had happened during the long weekend. She went to General Santos in Mindanao; I went to Batangas near Taal Volcano; Mel went to Singapore, and AJ had gone to Hong Kong. Needless to say, a lot had happened during our time apart.

I don't usually ask for pasalubong when a friend of mine goes out of town, unless it's to go to Cebu (I always ask for dried mangoes). But, if it's my mom, I ask for clothes since I still am not that good with style. That says a lot since two of my titas are fashion designer. Do I feel the pressure? Hell yea.

But apparently, Mel had brought home something for us. I got this pretty pretty mini mannequin for my jewelry. The purple and giant one were gifts from Cham and Pong, while the mini white one I bought which is the first of all of them. And, for Louie it SHOULD be chocolate 'cause... I dunno, he likes to eat BUT it better be good.

Other than seeing that Mel got home safely back to the Philippines. I finally got to do my impromptu speech but apparently (according to our professor) we all SUCK. Now, we have to do it all over again. WTF?

I still have to create papers for tomorrow.

Cramming on papers,

i don't wanna do impromptu speech again.

I do not like it when my long weekends are cut short by things such as a... seminar. I mean, I don't even like the subject but then again I HAVE to go to the seminar.

So, what exactly was that seminar about?

And, I just learned how to actually use the bluetooth on Laptoppy. Hence, the appearance of this picture.

But, what I really wanna stress out is that I finally was able to download the game that I loved to play a few years ago. The game is a classic buy-and-sell game that's related to chocolate. That's why, there's absolutely no surprise as to why I love this game. Running a chocolate business, where I could create whatever I can with the right amount of funds and such. Well, all I could say is that I wanna work with chocolates.

The game is entitled Chocolatier: Decadence by Design. It's a really old game released in January of 2009 about chocolates, coffees, infusions and such for a Baumeister confection. It's exciting for me, because I play very riskily so sometimes I happen to run really low in cash, but for now. I played for three hours, I have four hundred thousand bucks before I quit to eat dinner and watch Glee and Hell's Kitchen.

PASCUAL IS COMING HOME TOMORROW! (^_^)

Watching Hell's Kitchen,

stressing on a few papers as well.

It's 11/01/11. Shouldn't we be making a wish right now? Or wait for 11/11/11?

Can anyone please define, empacho? 'Cause it's exactly what I've been feeling since I woke up this morning. Considering I did not even eat a lot, I guess I'm slowing down in my metabolism.

Today is All Saints Day and as usual, it's a rather big event in the Philippines. Family visiting their loved ones who moved on, and of course a hell of a lot of food stalls in the cemetery. (-____-") Not a good thing to bring up to someone who feels so full.

Basically all I did today was read a story from FictionPress entitled The Pull of Destiny, visit my grandparents from my mom's side, eat a lot of snacks and then my day ends to right now, writing a blog. Also, we finally meet the family of the person who was buried next to my grandparents. We've been visiting for awhile now (roughly ten years) and today was the first time we actually saw them. It was mind blowing, I actually had to like say it out to believe it; my mom even chatted to them a bit 'cause it's been so long.

To what today meant to me: Visiting my grandparents' grave, well it makes me sad. I've accepted that they've moved on, but I always remember all the memories I've had with them. My lolo used to bring home chips (Lays, Ruffles or Pringles) every single time he went out. Then, my lola hates eating junk food such as chips because they're too salty unless it's the Piknik with 50% less salt. The time when we (me and Cham) were kids and we'd write on lolo's feet with a ballpen. Or when, lola played mahjong and she'd shout out Todas! then we'd find out there was a mix up in her cards.

To everyone else, these might be like everyday things... but isn't it the everyday boring things that stay with us?


I always wonder if people even scan through my blog. I wanna say that I don't care but I do. I mean, I don't write for the sake of the people who actually bother to check out my blog but I write because it helps me keep something stable, I guess?

I mean, I have no drama in life other than my studies (I sound like such a nerd, which I am) and my insecurities, which are summed up in a song called Ugly by 2NE1. No, I don't exactly understand what the lyrics in Korean mean, but the chorus which is in English well, yea that's how I usually feel like.


Remembering my grandparents,
AnaRay

my tummy hurts.
