Toxic Week...

It's going to be a really toxic week. Oh man!

I'm looking at my schedule and I see nothing but meetings, meetings, presentations, presentations, and more meetings. Eeeepppp!

A Christening on a Hot Sunday...

Attended the baptism of Johannes Matthew Amurao this morning.

JM is the firstborn of former coworker and good friend Lenly, and her husband Genie. Met up with Magsaysay friends and took the trip to Cavite. It was quite hot today, but I enjoyed seeing friends and the food was just good. Although, everyone had two words to say to me - Diet. Now. Hahaha!

From Cavite, took a quick stop at Starbucks for a Frappuccino and the sinful Banoffee Pie. Hehehe!

This Week's Friday Five...

1. What’s your favorite small office supply (like something that can fit in your top desk drawer)?
I'd have to say my fave small office supply are my multi-colored pens.

2. What’s your favorite medium office supply (like something that can fit on your desktop)?
For this one, it'll have to be my post-it pads. Can't live without them.

3. What’s your favorite large office supply (like a furnishing or a large tool)?
A nice, ergonomic, but stylish chair which I still have to find.

4. To which specific office supply do you have a particular personal attachment?
I'm attached to colorful file folders. Haha!

5. Which office supply do you consider yourself something of an expert on?
Hmmm, using alligator clips to slim down a person on a photo. Hahaha!

I'm done. Your turn.

Happy weekend!

Two Events to Cover...

Today and tomorrow would be quite toxic. This morning, I have to organize a mini-exhibit for a card design judging. Of course, I was informed about this at the very last minute. In the afternoon, it'll be the finals night of an office contest. Will cover the event. Tomorrow morning is a photo shoot for the winners of tonight's contest, while in the afternoon I have to attend a workshop/training. Tiring...

A Dose of Anna Wintour...

An interview with US Vogue editrix Anna Wintour. I love her.

Take the Leap (?!)

Something's sort of bugging my mind lately. It started just very recently. I feel like I'm falling into my usual cycle again. My friend Carlo told me, "Why do we allow them to take us over? Why do we give them control? Take control, friend. No one owns you but you." Yesterday morning, Thea, another good friend, said, "Well, you got to have the stomach for it, if you're going to get into that game."

Whoa!!!

Check out the cover of the September issue of Preview! Woo woo woo!!!

Joey Mead, Phoemela Baranda, Ornussa Cadness, Rissa Samson, and a very pregnant Wilma Doesnt clothed in nothing but chic jewelry.

I daresay it's way better than the cover of my favorite international fashion magazine. Hehe! I think this is the first time a cover with a peg like this ever came out.

Congratulations to the Preview team!

P.S.: Haha! It's waaayyyy better than I thought. The cover's actually a gatefold featuring PMAP models!!! Galing!!!

Kinda Long Sunday...

Morning was spent in Tagaytay with the usual suspects of the 1st Sunday Mass tradition. Joined Rose, Mina, Cathy and Tita Sonia at the Pink Sisters Convent in Tagaytay. Mass was followed by a fantastic brunch at the RSM Lutong Bahay restaurant. Since we were early, we got to get one of the cottages that gave an awesome view of the Taal Lake.

In the evening, met up with Sean and Romil at Greenbelt. We did some catching up while enjoying a couple of crepes at Cafe Breton.

Went home and watched She's the Man. Channing Tatum is hot. Awww!

The "-ber" Months Begin...

Woohooo! It's September already!!!

Before we know it'll be Christmas Day. But of course, we'll have to celebrate my birthday first this October. Hehehe!

l may have had a good start, and I'm crossing my fingers it'll keep going.

Wooohooo!

This Week's Friday

Here goes this week's Friday five.

1. What’s something you suspect you regularly overpay for?
Hmm, the last "something" which I really did overpay for was a meal at this hospital in Makati. Gawd! I can't believe I shelled out 350 pesos for that meal that I ate. It's crazy.

2. What’s something you suspect you regularly underpay for?
Hehehe! This chocolate cake at Glorietta. Three cute little boxes for only 100 pesos.

3. What’s taking up more of your time than it should?
On certain days, it's doing tasks other people can do.

4. What’s causing you stress only because
you let it?
Haha! Seriously, this person who's not really supposed to be a source of stress.

5. If all your karma were based on your positive and negative attitudes, would it be in good shape, in bad shape, or perfectly in balance?
I'd like to think it's somehow in balance.
