Here Again

I've tried to convince myself several times to write again in this page but wasn't able to do it. So many things have happened, new things have been learned. From my new room, my first birthday here in Singapore, my pinoysg addiction and affiliation, my boring day job. Good topics to write about...

But why am I back on my page now???.. hmmmm...

I got a new place last Oct 8. Cool place(even without the AC). I usually spend time playing with Kate here and of course get my much needed nap. Just a nap 'coz i usually stay until morning playing NFS underground... haha.

Birthday!.. weee... me and my college buddies emptied 2L of vodka. We don't know anything to mix with it so there, we drank it on the rocks... alam nyo na kasunod... bangenge... hehehe... simple birthday with happy friends. quite a night...

ahhh... i still remember my birthday last 2006... fun fun fun and buckets of san mig lights... best birthday that i can remember...






Ok, enough of that memory... =D

PinoySg - a forum site of pinoys here in Singapore. I was just going through the pages at first but now i am playing volleyball with the members now... haha.. next basketball naman.. then billiards... I read posts from people of kinds. They discuss, brag, debate, piss off other members, and there are some who are called attention-whores... lol... good way to spend the day in the office though... (oooppppsss!!!!)... what did i just say???

alright... my day job is boring... haysss... (calling msgorgeous_crm... just a gentle reminder on my resumé... plsssss....)

************************

Now.. you might be wondering why i'm back typing my thoughts here. The reason is - I AM COOKING BABY! wuhooo!!!..

I was very hungry one sunday and i don't know what to eat. Worst, i saw someone post in PinoySg that they have a pochero in their place... waaaaaaaaa.... burrrppp... there goes my stomach. darnnn it...

What I did, I took off with my EZ link card and went to sheng shiong(a supermarket here). I got myself fruits, rice, a couple of spices and vegetable oil, chicken drumsticks and fish.

I ask friends from PinoySg how to do the deep frying of the fish(prito in short) lol... ehh... deep fry daw eh. hahaha... so tadannn... i was able to cook and eat my first prito!!.. wuhoo!.. yari ang bahaw sa kusina... hahaha...

That was last week. This week... ehemmm... "Adobo"

First, I texted my sister how she do her adobo that i missed very badly. I also chatted with a friend all the way from Japan for other adobo cooking instructions.. hehehe... So, I got my sister's instructions and told my housemates about it. They told me that my sister's way of cooking adobo is more of an advance style already... so they suggested that i do the basic adobo first - "pagsabayin lahat2x".

So there... chicken, onions, garlic, soy sauce, konting salt and cook... then vinegar, taste test... uhhmmmm... "yan adobo na yan".. "talaga?".. "oo adobo na yan!"... "ayusss!!!"...





New friends, new interests when I landed here in the land of the puking half-fish-half-lion statue. Thats what good life is. *wink*


***A thing i've learned. Learning to love someone does not take a day or two. You may feel so in love talking to somebody for a while but might not be love after all. (What the hell do i know about love anyway).. hahaha.. Loser!

Wag Ka Nang Umiyak

I wanted to share this song na kasama sa Sugarfree Album na nabili ko last year pa. Nice Lyrics by Ebe Dancel...

Title: Wag Ka Nang Umiyak
Album: Tala-Arawan
Artist: Sugarfree

Wag ka nang umiyak, sa mundong pabago-bago
pag-ibig ko ay totoo
ako ang iyong bangka, kung magalit man
ang alon, ng panahon, sabay tayong aahon

[chorus]
Kung wala ka nang maintindihan
Kung wala ka nang makapitan
Kapit ka sa akin, kapit ka sa akin
Di kita bibitawan

Wag kang umiyak, mahaba man ang araw
uuwi ka sa yakap ko
wag mo nang damdamin kung wala ako sayong tabi
iiwan kong puso ko sa yo
at kung pakiramdam mo’y wala ka nang kakampi
isipin mo ako dahil puso’t isip ko’y
nasa yong tabi

[repeat chorus]

…di kita pababayaan

Kapit ka, kumapit ka
(para sa buhay ng buhay ko)

Promise Yourself

Promise Yourself

To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind;
To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet;
To make all your friends feel that there is something in them;
To look at the sunny side of everything and make your

optimism come true;
To think only the best, to work only for the best, and to expect

only the best;
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are

about your own;
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater

achievements of the future;

To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living

creature you meet a smile;
To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have

no time to criticize others;
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear;

and too happy to permit the presence of trouble;
To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world,

not in loud words, but in great deeds;

To live in the faith that the whole world is on your side so long

as you are true to the best that is in you.

I just want to share this article because its inspiring and a bit challenging to follow. Promises are meant to be broken as others say but this promise is something worth a try.

Susubukan ko ring Magsulat

Ngayong araw susubukan kong mag sulat.

Kasi.

Mag iisang buwan na ako dito sa Sg.

August 2 nung umalis ako ng Manila. Isang araw lang ang empake bago lumarga. Hindi pa nakahinga sa dating trabaho at lilipad na sa lugar na puro galeng sa internet at kwento ni Pareng Warren lang ang idea ko.

Mejo malungkot ako nun. Di ganun ka excited. Kasi wala naman talaga sa plano ko sa buhay ang iwanan si Pilipinas. Sabi ng isang kaibigan - "ano ka ba? Sg. na yun. yung iba nga gumagawa ng paraan para makapunta lang dun tapos ikaw di excited".

Well... Ganun ako eh. =P

Kailangan ko na lumayo. Sa sister ko na lagi kong kasama. Sa mga pamangkin ko na ginagabayan(trying to). Sa mga kaibigan na sinabihan kong "walang iwanan".

Lalong lumayo sa family sa province. Pag tumawag additional digit na --- 01963 + area code + tel number. (yung 019 promo ng singtel para tipid... weee...)

dati kasi area code lang... tsk.

Well... ganun eh... kailangan umalis... hirap pala pag unang beses mo umalis sa malayo. kakaiyak. pero ok lang... choice ko to...

Nung dumating ako dito, halong mangha at pag aalala. Mangha, kasi ganda ng lugar. Maayos ang lahat. Pag aalala, kasi xempre pers taym. =D

Salamat sa mga dating kaibigan na di ako pinabayaan kahit ngayon lang ulit kami nagkita. Kahit sa mga simpleng bagay na ginawa nyo ay di ko kakalimutang bumawi sa inyo.

Experience?.. Aba andami.. sa perstaymer pa eh.. =D

Abangan... "Sa Piling ng mga Anaps"

2 Weeks akong nagstay sa guest house kasama ang mga tao na gaya ko ring nagbabasakali dito sa Sg. Mejo mas nosetril friendly lang ako. =D

Nakakita na kasi ako ng place na tingin ko mabuti para sa akin. Mababait ang mga nakatira na puro pinoy din. Sa kanila ko naranasan ang pagdadamayan ng mga pinoy.

Well, heto... dito nga sa ibang bansa, pero wala naman masyado pagkakaiba. Matutulog ka, Kakain ka, trabaho... same lang din. Mag iisang buwan na.

Alis kaya ako ng Earth para maiba?.. jowk. =D

Sorry di na ako masyado nag detalye, sobrang dami nangyari sa unang isang buwan eh. Nakakatuwa, nakakatawa, nakakalungkot.

Simula ngayon subukan ko nang mag sulat lagi. Kung ano ano lang... basta.
