breaking news!

okay, now for some breaking news:

my brother has qualified for pisay! WOOHOO!

*breathes*



the pshs website says he was one of the 1,119 examinees who made it through the one-step screening last november, out of the total21,303 applicants.

thank you lord. hehehe. heto namang tatay ko talagang tinawagan pa ako para ako tumingin. eh pano kung di pumasa, pano ko naman sasabihin yun ano?

buti na lang nakalista eh! tapos nung kumalma na ako, saka ako tumawag. sagot ng tatay ko:

dad: oo nga eh, nakatanggap siya ng letter. just double-checking.

NAMAN EH! alam mo yung me moment before pressing [enter] sa search bar, yung moment of doubt na, "what if di pumasa yung kapatid ko? saan siya mag-aaral?" tangena. talk about a nanosecond of nanay-anxiety.

but no, he got in, and what a way to cope during these times of immense crisis. hehehe. congrats!

this merits celebration.

(meanwhile, this makes me the only non-pisay sibling. hmmm. buti na lang ako yung pinakamaganda, kundi magtatampo ako ke universe. hehe.)

tomb raider to return without jolie?

reports say that tomb raider may be back on screen - but without angelina jolie. end of era much? I KNOW.

the fact is, i haven't met anyone, much less a lesbian, who has not had a crush, at one point or another, on angelina jolie. i mean, come on, those of you who realized you were much much more into girls than boys just by looking at ms jolie, raise your hands. *raises hand*



in many ways, angelina and her tomb raider movies were vital to my coming of age party, or something. tomb raider 2: the cradle of life was released in 2003, i think - which was the year i came out. and this, of course, is in addition to gia, which i loved as well.

and as much as i adored megan fox in transformers... well, i don't know.

on other news, this might not be new to you anymore, but i do want to say that i have the WEIRDEST dreams.

this morning, for example, i simply woke up with this statement in my head: The DepEd of the ocean is where all the school of fishes are.

i know, right. minsan iniisip ko rin kung anong klaseng issues meron ako. hahaha. or baka too much sabaw lang c/o hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy (which i'm reading, finally) and the movie yes man (wish you would step down from the ledge, my friend...)

workaholic panda

my girlfriend has decided to indulge my caffeine addiction by giving me a design-your-own tumbler from starbucks as an early valentine gift. hihi. i have the best girlfriend in the world. <3


foreground: tumbler says, "will work for cuddles". background: meet panda, my newest toy. ahehe. <3

sweet 16

And now, for something momentous - today is our 16th monthsary! =) Here’s to love and togetherness and homemade pasta on Sundays and domesticity and hulahoops and futsal and surprise weekend getaways to cold places and surprise vacations with families and to dancing and movies and coffee with friends and to reading in bed and talking all night and yes, to sleeping and waking right next to you, every single god-given day. Here’s to the best stretch of my life thus far.



I love you.

balang araw, a barack

i missed the live coverage of the inaguration of the 44th US President early this morning, and i sure hope the net connection becomes well enough to run videos of Pres. Obama's speech later.

on CNN they're still showing the parties. i mean, they're really happy, aren't they? kinikilabutan ako just watching the utter volume of merriment that ushered in the first administration change in the US since 2001.

since 2001. since 2001... hmm. so sana tayo rin ano by next year. Universe, give Philippine politics something to party about in 2010. please.
