of Hip Lola and Father's Day

if you haven't heard, the Queen of England got herself a shiny silver 4gb iPOD Mini. wow! and she's 79 years old! this website said she'll probably look like this.and you can read more about the hip Queen here where i originally heard of the news the other day. talk about a "hip Lola"! speaking of "hip lolas", there's this old lady in church who i fondly call "Lola Bombshell" because with her age, she really looks good-- she's very tall and very slim. she looks so good in jeans and does her make-up really well (not too thick and not too pale either).

i just finished my paper for econ and my fingers are stiff again like they've been locked up in a freezer. okay, maybe not that stiff but they're really half frozen right now. i spent father's day with my family by going to church in the morning, lunch at China Town (food was good, by the way), bought dessert, then straight home. we were supposed to watch a movie at Gateway because my father wanted to try Taco Bell for dinner but after lunch everyone was tired (they came from the province yesterday and still haven't rested enough) so we decided to watch a movie on thursday instead.

i feel bad because i accidentally crushed my father's eyeglasses with my right foot. when i got into the car, i didn't see it under the backseat. so when i stepped my right foot in i heard a loud CRRRRUNNNCCCH! i got so scared. when i looked under my feet, it was my father's poor glasses. i would have felt better if it were just ordinary pair of glasses but it's GUCCI so the guilt is killing me although he didn't get mad because he knows it was an accident. sigh

i want to go dancing. i want to dance to trance/euphoric/electronica songs with lights that make me dizzy minus the smoke that makes my eyes watery. i haven't gone dancing in a while because i sometimes enjoy dancing alone in the room more because i'm free to do whatever i want to do without worrying about psychos trying to dance with me and hit on me when all i want to do is dance. no more, no less. i haven't gone dancing in a year (or more). i'd like to do that soon when i'm guilt-free of spending one saturday night going dancing.

if you're into trance/chillout/electronic/euphoric music, download these songs:

1. No Ordinary Morning (Chicane)
You could give a million reasons change the world and change the time
Could not give me the secrets of your heart and of your mind
In the darkness that surrounds you now there is no piece of mind
Your careless words undo me, leave the thought of us behind


2. Children (Robert Miles)
download it! no questions asked!

3. Love on the Run (Chicane)
Like love on the run there will be tommorow
the stars and the sun every beam I'll follow
Together we're dancing all night long
together we're dancing on and on
The sound of the drum keeps my soul depending
each day and each night and its never ending
Together we're dancing all night long
together we're dancing on and on


all of the above take me on a natural high :)

by that i end my post. it's past midnight. yikes. i wasn't planning on blogging tonight. yikes.

huwaa!! buti pa si lola may ipod! hahaha! talbog niya ako wahi. nahuhuli na ako sa mga balita... gawd...

*sniff!* poor poor glasses... may the guilt and fear consume you until your dad buys new ones... haha just kidding. accidents happen, don't worry. if it'll make you feel better, i "accidentally" flushed a 50 dollar bill down the toilet when i was a kid hahaa. dad was SO angry at me. :p

gyun-woo: the glasses are okay now! as good as new! apparently, the optical shop has ways to repair a crunched pair (because the frame on the right side was just deformed). yey!


lorenz: whoaa! 50 dollars!? you'll never get that back! but my dad's glasses got repaired and they look as good as new :P HAHA! okay, i'm mean.

anonymous: i always wanted to write a song. nope, i haven't written one and yes, i'll give it a shot. who is this please, and why do you ask?
