Training Day ?

Sorry, I lost count. Anyway, this week is about London templates. Though I'm quite confused where I am right now, I still managed to prepare myself everyday with what the future holds.

I don't know if I'll start on believing with these words - "Patience is a virtue." This is one of the qualities I lack but you know, I've changed. Don't want to elaborate on that, you'll just see.

So, that's about it. I've got some assignments that I need to work on. Ciao!

Movie and KTV

Last night, my droogs and I went out for a movie and KTV. We have planned this since Chie arrived from Dubai. Watched the New Moon and I tell you, it's just a waste of money! Movie was really boring with all the yapping and very long phasing, but what made it interesting is when the wolves and vampires show off their yummy bodies. I myself drool over Taylor Lautner's sexy abs though I still prefer Rob's since I'm not really into those hulky bulky guys. Hehe.

Anyway, after the movie we went to a KTV bar somewhere in Jupiter, Makati and realized that watching New Moon was actually a bad idea. I warn you, don't watch New Moon, you'll totally crave for food after! Hehe. As we went inside the exclusive room, we immediately ordered almost everything and as soon as the food was placed on the table, man, this was really embarrassing -- it was like a swoosh and the food was totally wiped out! Oh, of course the sizzling sisig was still there. The only reason it wasn't gone is because there ain't any utensils! Imagine some hungry scavengers -- that's basically who we are! The funny thing is that when the waiter returned for our utensils, his face looked so shocked and couldn't believe that it's only a matter of less than 5 minutes and we start ordering some more food. Hahaha!

We had a great time. It was once in a lifetime that we, the Badings, hang out almost complete. We ended up sipp some coffee and laugh out all the things that happened that day. Love you guys. Cheers for our never-ending friendship!

PS Wishing Yatz was here.

Mom's Sweet 60

Mom recently turned 60. It's been our plan to celebrate it fabulously so we stayed at Holiday Inn like tourists for 4 days and 3 nights. T'was a bit pricey but that was nothing compared to the extreme happiness being with your loved ones.

Make a wish Ma!

My mom has always been there for me and my sisters that's why she deserves to be the "queen" on this very special day of hers. Oh okay, not only today but everyday! Anyway, we had a blast and we look forward for her 61st! I wish her to blow more candles and slice lots of cakes in the future. Happy birthday Mom and we love you with all our hearts.

Repertory Philippines' Sweeney Todd Musical Play

Attended this production with Cha, Kets and Chie and sure it was awesome! Watching it on its first showing and having free tickets is like winning the jackpot at a lottery. Haha! I felt so damn lucky! I commend Menchu Lauchengco-Yulo's portrayal of Mrs. Lovett, it's a role to kill for and she made an outstanding performance! Though Audie Gemora is not as handsome as Johnny Depp, I guess being a veteran theater performer is a perfect choice for Philippines' Benjamin Barker/Sweeney Todd.

You guys should see it. It's one of my favorite dark musical play. I assure you that it's worth every penny.

"Sweeney Todd" play dates are from November 14 to December 13, 2009 with additional matinees on Saturdays and Sundays at Onstage, 2/F Greenbelt 1, Ayala Center Makati City. For ticket inquiries and other information, call Repertory Philippines at 8870710, 8880887 of Ticketworld at 8919999.

PS thanks Kets for inviting me.

Chie's Back!

Time really flies so fast. Though it was only for a vacation, I'm glad that we're able to meet Chie again. You can't tell how much we missed her though it was like yesterday when she left for work abroad.

We went to her place, reminisced all afternoon, talked about what we've been through and what we're up to, laughed, pigged out, had coffee - name it! We had a great time and before leaving, we promised that we will meet again soon. A day isn't really enough with all our stories, especially for Melo hehe...

5 minus 1 Badings at Starbucks

How I wish that Yatz was also here, that will make the Badings complete! Anyhoo, there's always next time... lotsa lotsa time!

I love you Badings!

Stopped

Just watched again the classic movie called "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" then felt the need for a puff. My mind pondered on Mr. Nicholson's death on the film and tried to remember why the director had come up of such title. Saw this favorite movie of mine for I dunno, 100 times, but hell, I'm still asking the same questions after. Suddenly, I realized what a brilliant man Milos Forman was.

Out of the blue I remember our gas range downstairs. I cooked earlier but did I closed it or just left it as it is? Finished the cancer stick while searching for my favorite star. Weird, it's not there. Closed the gate and have it locked, wasted 5 minutes in doing so. Damn, how complicated those fucking precious pad lock! Went inside my room, dropped the handy Cricket, checked on my cellphone - still isn't fully charged! Stormed out of the room, walked down the stairs, double-checked the gas range - yeah, I closed it. Climbed up 15 steps, went inside the room, felt a little dumb, sipped on a water in a Moo plastic cup then checked again on my cellphone - still not fully-charged! Thought of blogging of what just happened to stay awake. Grabbed the laptop beside my bed, turned it on - one... two... 11 fucking minutes, shoot how much longer? Opened Blogger, typed up what I wanted to type. Eyes started to itch but ignored it. Got tired of thinking, don't have any clue what else to say. Unaware, now scratching my right half-closed eye. About to hit "Publish" this piece of crap then finally I stopped.

Reunited...

...and it feels so good! Well, it does. I'm so happy that finally, we met face-to-face after ? years. Though we always chat and text, it's still different you know.

I recently went out with Laine, a very good friend of mine who's working in Dubai. It's been 10 years (I believe) or so since we last saw each other so loads of yapping happened haha! First, we had dinner at Outback and we pigged out like there's no tomorrow! But our convo just didn't end there. We then went for a coffee and continued our long overdue chat. She mentioned the things that she had gone through during her application at Emirates, everything about her family and her plans for the future. She always say that she's very lucky and up until now, she couldn't believe that things are happening all in a good way. So I slapped her back to reality haha...

Anyway, Laine and I became friends during our Dunkin Donuts and Kenny Rogers days. We worked as crewmates during college and even though I've decided to choose another path, we remain good friends. I can say that Laine was one of my trusted friends. She knows almost everything about me, esp my fraudulent acts and I'm thankful she kept her mouth shut and I've never been ever caught. Hah!

We ended up in the cinema and watched 500 Days of Summer. The hardest part on that day is actually saying goodbye. As much as we want to do more stuff and talk all night long, well, we now have our own priorities in life. So goodbye for now and see you again soon! Alabyu dear.

Hagardo versoza!

PS Thank you Laine for the pasalubongs! Did I ever say that I sooo love the wine?
