You are responsible to yourself and they are to themselves...

Okay, I'll try.

Gosh, the second person to tell me this.

Does my life need an overhaul or effin' whaaaattttt?!!!

Indie Pop Anyone???

Pa'no yan, hindi ako Indie Pop chick???

I'm just a simple, fat girl lurking around cyberspace more than the real world.

Photo Booth Goof!

SMILE!

Sosyal o Tanga (Classy or (Plain) Stupid)

So I am listening to my favorite radio station and they have this portion: What's up Pussy Cat...simply the news update for the hour.

Here's the catch. The DJ will replace pussy cat with some other animal (say lion, crocodile, rat etc).

DJ1: What's up.. PALAKA? (frog)

So two senior DJs were like "kokak" "kokak" except for this student jock. I was picturing her gaping, as if lost in translation.

DJ2: Why? You don't know what palaka is?

Student Jock: No.

DJ2: it's frog. Wow ha, you're so sosyal you don't know palaka?

So tell me, is this student jock SOBRANG SOSYAL or SOBRANG TANGA LANG TALAGA?

PS the student jock is Pinoy! IDK if she was raised outside the country but I doubt.

#effinannoying

What can you say? Sarap lang sapakin!

Now how awesome is my father's hair brush?

my dad took this from the Bench counter, decided he needed a brush and bought it.

how cute!

Guess what I found...

May 2005

Around 130 lbs and stressed out! 

OMG

Wish I was still 130 lbs

The Effect of "Toot" in "Toot"

Why do you have this effect on me?

The moment makita ko lang na "toot" ka...

PANIC MODE!

Waaahhhhhhhhhh!

#ValentineBlues

(yeah I just really need to vent this out, I thought nothing, but really, literally, my heart went frantic. What is kilig? Taranta? Asar lang!)

Tarty Enough???

Tired, sweaty...and wearing red lipstick

A friend says "not enough (to pass the tarty test)".

This photo could never give justice of the dreaded lip color.

MAC Russian Red is a force to reckon with. It's matte (the lippie formula I love love love! I am a fan of matte and creme), highly pigmented (insanely pigmented it seems like cray pas) and pricey (a little less than a thousand Philippine pesos for a tube darn it...but no complaints, just worth buying!).

Nah, not my Russian Red but my colleague's. She just wanted a test run or something (I truly appreciate it!). Oh just one downside however. I do not want to eat wearing this lipstick as there's a tendency to be all over the place. Nah, when I eat I mean the type of eating wherein you stuff yourself, the simple snack will do but if you're up to lunch and dinner of rice and sauce-y viands then I am not quite sure if the lippie cooperates. Told you it's insanely pigmented and the last thing you want is to look like a clown if  you wipe that stain of curry sauce off the corners of your mouth.

Enjoy the weekend guys! I slept for 12 hours could you believe that? if my mom did not wake me up for breakfast, I would sleep a couple more. HEAVEN!

Dear Me**

...for sure he does not care.

...so here you go again.

... you know where this is headed to. Yeah, waley!

... kurutin kita sa singit wala ka talagang kadala dala!

...oooooppppssss you did it again.

...okay ka pa?

...so far you are doing a great job.

...I know you are excited!

...stay cool and happy.

...I know if you can have it your way, you'll be away now.

**inspired by today's topic on The Morning Rush with Chico, Delamar and Gino.

A Little Miserable

Thanks to you for ruining my mood.

For being too good to be true (to the point I thought of it as hypocrisy)

Yeah if you take back what you said

No I don't think there is a change of heart.

I only ask once.

Your Nails will Determine the Diameter of your "Choovaness"

"ChoIs there any truth to this?

We have a colleague who "willingly" (or was he forced??) to "model" for us during lunch time.

I know right?!!!

Diamond shaped choovaness! 

What the ---

Two more from two girls (interesting!)

And this is me with my niece "modeling' for the diamond shaped choovaness:

Try this at home!

"HG" STOKED!!!

Will start reading "The Hunger Games" trilogy soon.

Actually, I've been hearing a lot of buzz about this set since last year but the "deadma ever" I am, hell yeah, I just made deadma.

Then, two weeks ago, the fave radio station played "Safe and Sound" (a different Taylor Swift!) and I just said: oh boy I have to read this na, as in now na.

Excited lang ako!

(The book is goooooooooooood daw according to my friend)

Daydreamin' a California Dream

"Ano kaya mangyayari? marami kayang tao sa MOA? ibibirit kaya ni Katy Perry yung dulo ng Hummingbird Heartbeat? normal version na kaya ng The One that Got Away yung kakantahin niya? Marami kayang Firework? Musta naman yung mga male back up dancers niya, wafu kaya???"

"Di bale na! Fight na! STOKED!"

Paper Talk

Notebook courtesy of my boss -- another year of dividing the workload to the team.

Papemelroti mini calendar to plot all my vacations, to write down all my work passwords (a lot!) etc. Can't start my new year without a calendar like this... been going on for a couple of years now.

Excited to fill those pages out.

Adele's Chasing Pavements and Make you Feel My Love

Okay I know this is very late but I think I am officially Adele'ized!

♫Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements?♪

#nowplaying Make You Feel My Love 

This is MYFML at the Royal Albert Hall, in an instant, goosebumps in all areas possible. Can I just shed a tear?

Adele I promise if you come over here in the Philippines I will watch your concert.

You! Yes, You!

If you get to read this, I just want to say "hi".

Hugs and kisses,

Hybrid Cha
 (PS I don't usually do this on my blog, this random "hi" thing, but hey! there's always a first time for everything right? cheers!)

Noche Buena supermarket galore later!

And I can hardly wait!

Tonight, probably around 8:30 PM (yes eight thirty pee ehm) mom and I will go to SM North EDSA to purchase the noche buena ingredients -- draft courtesy of yours truly, approved by the mother. Some ingredients I will buy myself HAHAHA as always! 

Just super excited! Tomorrow is going to be busy. At least for me. BTW my mom changed the original plan (menu)...I will just make kwento once Christmas is over. Just excited! I hope no more anxiety attack anymore! 

Mwahhh!

DeadMa

Deadma - (v) to ignore someone or something intentionally with or with no apparent reason; (n) a person who does the ignore something or someone intentionally with or with no apparent reason at all.

That was the case this  morning! Gosh! 

I was face to face with a grade school classmate on the LRT. FACE.TO.FACE. From Monumento to Gil Puyat. I was trying to sleep and she was reading.

She was one of the coolest girls around when we were classmates and catching up with her could have been awesome, it's just that... WHAT WILL I SAY TO BREAK THE ICE? I never met up with her since waaaaayyy back 1998 so there. Epic deadma.

PS several posts coming up...maybe tomorrow. By golly. It's been a while.

K-kinda Beseeey!

Howdy world???!!!

It was raining non stop the whole Sunday AND now, it's freaking smoggy/foggy! Yikes! I am not celebrating Christmas under the rain...count the New Year as well!

As usual, I am still busy and have a couple pending entries (food, food and food!). Tomorrow is the office's Christmas Party and I have not had my mani-pedi session yet. #laternalang

I miss this blog. This is my outlet, this is where I channel my passion, frustration, happiness... at times I think of shutting this blog down para matapos na, I will not feel anxious of my pending posts etc but I've come this long, sige na nga, try ko pa ituloy. Haaayyyyyy... and by the way, I got dizzy looking for some vintage-y bling bling at SM North EDSA last Saturday! WHAT IS SUPER KADUPER THE DAMI NG PEOPLE?!!! I was about to purchase a blouse as well but the queue on the fitting rooms just went on forever and ever (amen). Hell, that can wait, in January na lang. Also, the bling bling I found were... mahalia jackson! At 399+ PhP and I am going to use it for tomorrow (good luck to me if I'd get to use the necklace more than four times, it'd probably end up inside my closet lang) I do not think it's a wise idea (to purchase it).

With this said, I ended up purchasing three huge bottles of Apple Cider vinegar, Hoisin sauce and yeah, I literally jumped at the supermarket (I was kilig like crazy!) when I saw Sriracha sauce! There, my 300+ PhP all went to my sauces/condiments. I used everything yesterday. Ang saya ko lang. Told yah, I hate dressing up, I am bad at it. But I love cooking and experimenting... duh! Just don't bring me any closer to the supermarket's Asian/spices/condiments sections, you'd go nuts with my passion for those things.

Yikes, wrote a lot! See you sometime... Maybe Thursday (?) or Saturday (?) IDK still when to get those posts live on my blog. Cheers to Monday!

It's This Time of the Year

Heck yeah December, how could you be so cold each year?

I've been listening to my Mariah (Oh Santa, All I Want this Christmas) and some Britney (My Only Wish this Year) and yeah, another case of malamig na Pasko.

Fret not, I am used to it... HAHAHA

Anyway, I just thought of being with someone this Christmas. I am planning to roast a chicken on Noche Buena. The idea of sharing this dish with a boylaloo would be cute... whatchathink???
