Settling the Unplanned Plan

Last Thursday, my friends and I met over a dinner. We arranged a gathering to talk everything about the most awaited Ilocos trip. Yey! It was Louie and Bnx who got there first -- alleluja! We decided to eat while waiting for the others to arrive. Finally, the love birds showed up, Franny and Elly. Keti btw didn't showed up as she's dead tired from her GY shift and I could bet that she's still sleeping her ass out by that time. :P

After eating, we went to a coffee shop and that's when we had an "intense" brainstorming session haha. Karla arrived just in time. Evil geniuses versus the demon geniuses hehehe. We talked about the places we're going, hotels we're gonna stay, beacheas we're gonna visit to get tan, some money matters, shopping (oh lala!), outfits, FOOD, plane tix, and "Finance girls" to mock, etc. I think we pretty much tackled EVERYTHING. So we're all set even though it's still a month to go. Everyone has been counting down the days. =)

Here's our itinerary (nothing beats Franny in making itineraries :P)

We sure are really excited but we are keeping our fingers crossed! We hope that the weather will go along with us. We even think of offering some eggs just to make sure the positive odds are on our side and yeah, t'was Bnx's idea of course! Very bright little girl. So Ilocos, better get ready!

PS super thank you Five for the lovely fab bag. I was sooo happy and as what I've texted you, I did slept with it. Hehehe. It was supposed to be a bday gift but turned out to be a Xmas gift. Looking forward for my next bag this July =)

Antibiotic For a Week

When I woke up yesterday, I had a severe headache -- it was like splitting-into-two kind of pain and I couldn’t speak. Literally, words are barely coming out of my mouth! I immediately texted my boss that I have a fever and couldn’t report for work. My mouth was really dry so I decided to drink some water before going back to sleep. It really made me cry whenever I swallowed any type of liquid. It was effing painful! Damn I'm having a sore throat, nice... very nice! My sister gave me a hexetidine mouthwash to ease the pain but it just didn't work! The funny thing is that, the whole day, all I do is to SLEEP.

Thank gawd am a bit okay now, I managed to report for work. So I decided to have a doctor check my firing throat. Too bad the nurse informed me that the doctor will arrive by 10am so I have to wait. Fortunately, the nurse was really lovely and helpful. He gave me a lozenge and he offered himself to take me later to the clinic. After an hour or so, I had my checkup with our company doctor and he prescribed me some antibiotics and paracetamols. Antibiotic baby… for a week! I hate taking antibiotics. Ugh!

my medical prescription

I started taking the pills and the doctor told me that it'll be somewhat okay in a couple of days so wish me luck!

The Unplanned Plan

My friends and I are planning to go to Ilocos this early summer. At first it was only a joke but now, we're super excited! We will go there by a bus and we'll leave there by a plane. We're gonna visit Pagudpud, Vigan and Laoag. Can't wait to taste Ilocos' famous "emapanada" and "bagnet". Actually, there's been a lot of plans though we actually don't know where to start, but hell yeah we're ready to go! So Ilocos, here we come!!!

confirmed flight tickets from Laoag to Manila

I'll keep you posted. Ta-ta!

Badings' Post-Xmas Party

"Badings" that's what we call ourselves. Originally, there are 5 ladies and 2 gentlemen. Since we cannot contact Christian anymore and a newbie wants our crazy company, we're now 6 lovely ladies and a gent. We've been office mates, beer mates, bading mates -- whatever you want to call it. Five of us are still here in the Philippines and 2 now works out of the country. Though we're far from each other, we always always find time to communicate and I must say, these are the type of friends worth keeping. =)

Xtina was here and having her vacay so Badings wouldn't really want to miss that. Besides, what we're all looking forward is our "pasalubong" Hehehe... and we're REALLY happy and SUPER excited!

We ate at Clawdaddy's in High Street. Actually, it wasn't a dinner at all, more like a post-xmas party. We all had a great time especially the 2 naughty but super cute kids. Then, some of us went off for a couple of drinks at Mint and Pier One. Talk about spending quality time.

Here are some pics...

Panic Mode

I really hate it when somebody's panicking. It's like there was a war or bomb scare or it's the end of the world. The stress in the freaky voice, the tone dropping -- oh come on, cut the crap! Instead of whirling around like you've been ignited in the ass, why don't you just stay calm and breathe slowly for you to know or should I say REALIZE what to DO.

It also confuses me what REALLY is my function here. Yes I know for a fact that you're superior but PLEASE act like one. I don't want to go beyond my usual limit and besides I'm not paid for it *rolling of eyeballs*.

Here's a perfect strip of you and your disciples

Blog Transfer?

Xioms was already up when I opened my eyes early this morning and the first thing she said is "ninin". So I made her her milk and gave it to her. Geez, it's quarter to five and I should be in the shower now.

As usual am late for work again and yep, it's Sunday -- the most boring day in the office but I always look on the bright side. No bosses, no poseurs, I could wear what I want and I could listen to my fav songs and turn the volume at its highest freeeeeely. :)

I was thinking of transferring my blogs here. Hmmm... I've been a member for a while but I only enjoyed using this now and I don't know why. Maybe because it's not anymore restricted here in the office. Haha bleah! Laters!

Boring MOM

Another boring day passed. Tomorrow, I need to wake up early again. Yes, it's Sunday I know but it's very usual nowadays having to go to work on the said "family day". It's been like this for years and I should say, I'm numb of it. Do I have a choice? Yes or maybe not. But it really doesn't matter anymore. It's my choice to become a busy BORING person. You know, sometimes I still wish to become something else. Something like a drummer of a famous rock band or something like a respected novelist or something like a.. a zombie! Well, I'm not saying I ain't happy of what I am right now -- nothing could ever be more happier or should I say more COMPLETE than being a parent especially being a MOM. Oh crap! Here I am again, enough of the freaking drama. I'm really not in the mood and besides my eyes are now getting heavy. So good night. Laters!

PS I'm still wishing and hoping that someday, in the near future, I'll be able to meet you Bobby Dupea. LOL
