oh happy day! (haha! too much Sister Act!)

i had such a great weekend! my skin tone will tell you that much and my sore throat too. i don't know if it's the fruit of my fun weekend at Subic because i had a great time. everyone was so nice and warm and happy. i felt welcome-- that's the most important part. at the beach, alej and i went kayaking for the first time. funny how i wasn't scared when i should be. i wish i had the guts to swim to the deeper part of the water. maybe it isn't too late to take up swimming. it's not cool to snorkel at the beach where we went because there aren't too many sea creatures down there. but i had fun, nevertheless.

i can't use my concealer or the bottle of foundation that i feel like applying to my face when i want to hide hideous blemishes because my skin is too dark now. they're the only form of make-up i can put on my face because i feel awkward wearing make-up on ordinary days. the closest thing to being kikay for me is having baby cologne, baby powder, wet wipies, a pack of tissue, and a combe. oh wait, there's lip n' cheek tint but that's only when i FEEL like it.

over the weekend, Tal had her second child too! his name is Johance Hayden. what a cool name! college friends and i went to see her the past monday. Gab, her first born, is almost two years old and he's very funny and hyper! i can see a star in that little boy because he likes to perform in front of an audience! WOW! :) after visiting Tal we (pao, bea, and apple) went to Megamall because we were SOOOO hungry. we ate at Shakey's and talked my friends into seeing each other for lunch twice a month. Bea insists that we shouldn't eat in fastfood chains because it's a once in a awhile get-together. so we agreed on fine dining. yeyy! :) i figured it would help us keep the friendship intact, you know? all of us are moving on with our lives and getting older. and then there's the beach strip in september and the newest plan-- Hong Kong Disneyland! seriously, we're thinking of saving at least 25k for the trip because it's a package deal. another YEY! after lunch we went to the Apple Store. i finally got a new pair of earphones! there are no more Apple In-Ear earphones so i got the Sennheiser ones even if they're black. the sound quality is awesome.

so yeah. friends make me really happy. and plans that i'm not sure we'll be able to keep up with but i'm sure there are ways.

yesterday it was dinner with Alej and his family. cross-over buffet. i wanted to barf after but the kani bacon was too yummy and fatty to pass. i can't believe they ran out of Mediterranean cake at Dad's. and i can't believe i ate that much. *barf*

i have a feeling that this will be a good year. bring it on, world! :P
