ONE BIG FIGHT!

Congratulations to the Ateneo Blue Eagles for winning the UAAP Men's Basketball Championship.

They truly deserve it. Even though i'm rooting for my alma mater, La Salle (where I took up my Master's and where I met my hubby who's my classmate back then), I know from the very start that Ateneo will take home the crown. They're such a strong team to beat!

Anyways, La Salle will always be special to me. But I also have a special spot for Ateneo because I have a lot of Atenean friends plus my cousins' studied there, I pass by their Katipunan campus everyday on my way to work and someday, I have this crazy idea that when I have a son of my own, he'll go to the Ateneo from pre-school to college! much to chagrin of my hubby, who's a true blue La Sallian! lol!

It was a great season and i'm looking forward to next year where I hope to see my other alma mater, my beloved UST, in the finals naman. But for now, it's Ateneo's moment so I have to give it to them. GO ATENEO!

stressed at work

Yes. That's my current status rightnow. As in. Too many work to do. So many things going on in the organization. What's worst pa, I felt that someone new here in our group "violated" my work. I can't explain in detail but I really feel upset about it. It happened yesterday when I was on leave. My assistant just told me about it. Hay naku... things like this makes me think again of quitting and probably just concentrate on being a wife na lang ... what do you think?

"If you really like someone,

you accept every part of them.

But you can't do that until they're willing to share every part of you."

-Lana to Clark



"Maybe he keeps a part of him hidden

so it doesn't scare people away.."

- Clark to Lana



"If you want to get close to someone,

you have to take that risk..."

'- Lana to Clark



"What if the risk is too big to take?"

-Clark to Lana



"Then you might miss out on something

that could be pretty amazing..."


Nice, noh? Wala lang. I'm just feeling emotional these days :)

R.I.P. Heath Ledger


I was really saddened by the untimely demised of one of Holywood's fast-rising actor, Heath Ledger. I am no fan of Heath but I appreciate all the effort he has put into his movies especially in "Brokeback Mountain". I am also looking forward to his upcoming portrayal of "the Joker" in the movie "Dark Knight". Many said that he has put a different toll on this popular character once played by the great, Jack Nicholson.

Cause of his death is still unknown as the report of his autopsy was inconclusive. I just hope that the reports that have been circulating around about his alleged drug dependence and accidental overdose which they believed has caused his death are not true for I have high regards for this person. On the other hand, for whatever reason, I just hope and pray that Heath is now at peace with the Lord and that his family and daughter will soon recover from this tragic loss.

Question Tag

Got this question tag from Jane.
"Practically and realistically, how much are you willing to spend for a designer bag?"
If I would be spending my own money, my limit is between 25K to 30K. More than that, I will have to ask my husband to take care of it, lol. Ang daya ko noh? :)
Now, on a serious note, with the recent bombing in Glorietta2, is it now safe to go to the malls or any public place for that matter? Yesterday was really a sad day for all of us because there were people who died and got hurt. I hope and pray that this will never ever happen again. It's such a waste of life. I will not be tagging anyone but if you feel the same way as I do, feel free to share your views :(

Christmas is here!!!

Christmas is just around the corner! It has always been my favorite time of the year. As a child, I would start to look forward to the holiday season as early as September when the radio stations started playing Christmas Carols. Christmas always brings back happy memories of my childhood. This is where my parents would shower us with gifts, not necessarily expensive but memorable as well. That's why, now that I'm all grown-up, I make sure to return the favor by giving gifts to my loved ones and relatives every Christmas. However, shopping during this season can also be very toxic!!! Especially if you'll be doing your shopping during December! The malls are all jampacked!!
That's why, i'm glad to know online shopping now. It brings a new meaning to a fun, stress- free shopping without the hassle and bustle of it all!! In online shopping, you'll get to check out the best gifts for your loved ones, friends and family in the comfort of your own home. No long lines at the counter, no jampacked malls to worry about. All you have to do is find the right online shopping site that will suit your needs. Tobi.com is one site I frequently visit. This site has a wide range of products to choose from. They have clothes for men and women, bags and accesories for fashionistas like me, lol and many more. I already had my favorites though and I plan to order online for me and my hubby this Christmas season. My top favorites would be Vince Sweaters since i'm a sweater person as I easily get cold especially during the holidays and the Paige Jeans which I super dooper love since they fit very nicely. I have a heavy bottom and finding the right pants with the right fit is a must. And that is what I found in Paige Jeans.
For my husband though, I'm planning to get him a Diesel jacket for his birthday this November. I'm sure he'll look good on it! This would be my early Christmas Gift to him as well. I love shopping online at Tobi's. The experience is just so great you will never find it in any other online shops. You see, you can even have an online fashion stylist to help you with the choices you have to make and be abreast with the latest fashion trends. What more can you ask for? Shopping has never been this easy and fun!

LV Monogram Mahina XL

Just saw this new bag from LV Greenbelt 4 at thebaghag's site and I instantly fell in love with it!!

I have always admired Mrs.T's taste when it comes to bag and this new bag of hers is definitely one of the best! Mrs. T, congrats on your new purchase. You're right about this bag. The size can definitely hold all your stuff that's why I love it too! I prefer big size bags so I can put all my "trash" inside, lol. Anyways, this bag according to Mrs. T, is made of soft leather and the color is very easy to match with. Drawback, I think, is the bag's appearance when it is not full because of its super soft leather material, the bag may not "stand" up alone like the other LV bags. Oh well, I still love it and I will definitely add this to my wishlist. Thanks Mrs. T for showing this :)

It's raining the whole day. I don't have any complaints though cause I so looove this kind of weather! I just stayed at home the whole day catching up on my blogging (i was kinda "neglecting" my blog if you might notice he he he)... Anyways, we made some plans to have dinner and watch a movie in the evening together with our regular Saturday buddies, Malou & Charlie at Trinoma. We chose to watch "No Reservations" with Catherine Zeta-Jones and the very lovable Abigail Breslin. The movie is ok for me. Not too much of romance as I've expected 'coz it's also a family movie with Abigail playing a nice role as Catherine's niece. It's heartwarming to watch this aunt-niece tandem as they go through LIFE'S hardships together. Plus, add a little bit of "kitchen" romance between Zeta and Aaron Eckhart. Over-all, the movie is light and can pass as a "feel good movie" for me :)
After that, we headed off to have coffee at Coffee Bean. We passed by Powerbooks first so that i can buy the latest issue of a showbiz magazine i've been wanting to get since last week pa! You see, i've been seeing a lot of posts from my fave blogs about how this one TOUGH Lady survived the painful truth of falling in love and letting go of the man she thought love her as much as she loved him as revealed in this magazine. Oh well, Malou & I can't wait to read the whole story and so off we did, all 10 pages of it ! (or more i think) I really can't believe these hurtful things can happen to people like her coz I used to believe before that theses stars led a very lucky life. Aside from having a very financially rewarding career, I used to think that they are also free from all the hardships and cruelty that life may bring. But oh well, with what she has gone through just to save her marriage, all I can say is that this Lady has every right to be happy now! I'm not really a fan of her but after reading the article, I saw her not as a star but as a human being trying to get on with her life despite the horrible things that had happened to her that sometime made her think she just wanted to die from so much hurt. And for that, i truly admire her!
