Clumsy as she is: a Chef and Careerwoman Wanna-be

This was quite a good day for me. I was happy the whole day. Our professor commended our report and our classmates said that we looked as if we knew well what we were reporting in front. Geeee… Are we quite good actresses? hhahaha… Truth is,. we just prepared for our report hours before the presentation. Hahaha!

I had my stomach painfully tortured with spasms due to nonstop laughing just when we had (KONTRA-Gapi batchmates) our dinner in school. That was an experience I could not forget. For the first time I had a bonding moment with them after so many instances that I declined their invitation to hang out due to my busy schedule. … Hopefully I ‘ll have more fun fun moments like this. Aw, I miss this feeling. I had this when I was still in high school.

Let’s all give a round of applause to Ms. Ciara Mae Daquis for writing a senseful and inspiring article in Inquirer… It is her very first article  published in a newspaper. I am so proud of my friend. Here’s a link to her article: http://opinion.inquirer.net/inquireropinion/columns/view/20081111-171449/Booze-friendship-and-sad-endings

comments and reactions are highly appreciated.. :).

btw, her blog is just a click away. mind if you visit her? Ciara

For a new thing to learn, I insisted Kevin (my friend) to teach me the intro of A Thousand Miles, which is popularly sung by Vanessa. Yey! I got it and that was a record-breaking achievement. Haha. I don’t really play piano coz I don’t have one at home. But of course, if given a chance I would be so glad to have even just the electric piano. I really love listening to instrumental songs or any songs accompanied with piano background. Thanks to him. That made me happy, really.

Anyway, speaking of the libre-inom session of my buddy, woah!!! i made another record. I was drunk last night and i was just so talkative that time, according to them. Wahahahaha.. It was already 9:30 in the evening that my companion needed to go home but I don’t want to go with him, and yeah, I stayed. I drank a glass of gin orange straight. And… you-know-what-happened-next. Started to plurk things annoyingly. I feel so stubborn that time that I dared not to listen to anyone else. So stubborn kid I was.

Prior to that disaster, I was from my rehearsal in Kontra-Gapi. Alas, we started the dancing practices. Ati drove me crazy, like, it-was-freaking-hard-to-follow-the-tempo. More stretches for me I guess. More bends or may be more kembot would do. Hayst!

If you ask me what I am doing this time, during this vacation, oh well, I stay at home doing my due responsibilities to my family. Hahaha.. Sort of ‘pambawi’ after a sem of not being with them most of the time. I miss them so much, that explains it all. Ummmm, a week after I’ll be back in school again to enroll my enlisted classes and wholla! Busy days are marked on my calendar once more. Hehehe. I’m nervous though, as always. Nyihihihih. Mr. Erin, our Vice President for UP SHARP texted me a while ago if I still want to continue my duty as the chairperson for Externals next sem. Ohmaygawd, that thrilled me, so much. He said that he will be having his practicum next sem and hopefully will get a job. Oh that only means, I will be in-charge of our committee for the next few months. That is a quite a tough task. I’m scared, I am nervous. But I have faith with my colleages. They won’t leave me behind, I know. There will be quite a number of activities in line for the next sem, including our main event- the choco buffet. Sheeshh, I am praying hard, as early as now that I can manage all of them. *deep breath*

You don’t know how meatshop helps!! wahahaha! Last night was my night of bumming up myself after turning down a shitful-plainly-fucking acads week. At least the burden was lessened since we’ve done almost half of the final requirements for this sem. Oh God! There’s more left actually. it’s not yet over, not yet.

I am happy though. wahahahaha… How lucky we were (some HRIM friends) that we were able to attend a tea function for just hundred bucks.. what-the… For an original price of P200 per ticket, it was so sulit, eh? What we have were plentiful of delicious sandwiches and veryyyyy sweet chocolate fudge and an apple tart served with bottomless hot oolong tea. I had fun killing time with Gan and friends. Super laugh trip talaga. Gan was soooo bangag that time na sobrang ewan lang…Sumakit na lang tiyan ko sa katatawa ng bongga. But we were not able to get any pictures on that function.. and oh, the teacups were a huge issue that one lousy afternoon in the function area. Alvin (one of my friends) commented that we couldn’t not hold on the cups properly coz in the first place they were not teacups, they were coffe cups. I think one of the servers brought it up to Mam Tumanan (their teacher). After a while Mam Tumanan confronted us outside the function area and this was what she said, “guys, limme tell you something, about the teacups..umm… that was what all we have so most probably you would also be using it in your catering next sem”…. Ma’am… masyado mo namang dinibdib… Iba kasi ung way ng pagkakasabi niya, Sounds like she’s bitter. Oh Ma’am if I could just not get you in the CRS next sem for catering. If I could have just other choice, I don’t want you to be my my teacher. Ugh,..

Good thing Gan invited me to go there. If it weren’t for him I too wouldn’t have been to meatshop. Ah, that meatshop was legendary. That was where I got drank and “sabog” for the first time and it happened just months ago. I was with my orgmates then when that happened. Good thing I was able to go home partly “good” (half numb-half conscious). wahehehehe… For the benefit of those who doesn’t know what the fuck MeatShop is… well, a drinking place situated in Katipunan, xavierville ave. Hehehe.,, Now you know! Should you have drinking / bangag sessions with your friends, pwede na rin doon. But I should first congratulate myself for not being wasted after taking plentiful of alcohol shots. The first time I flooded myself with liqour, I got sleepy and dizzy easily but last night was a sort of breaking my record. I endured the effect of alcohol and yeah, I went home “truly good”. Walang amats. wakokokokkk.. I was glad to have bonding moments with my other classmates/batchmates from other sections. At least I’m trying to make my circleeven bigger LOL. That was a blast. Val was there.. The Valvin tandem was the talk of the crowd. Marianne-Ryan issue was hot too. And Kat… she’s so damn hot that night, that was what she said to everybody, wahehehehe… But hey, she’s sooo nice. I like her. And yeah, another quiet talk with Erika happened. The usual rants and all spurted like what I am supposed to tell. Nothing new actually.

Gan even taught me how to smoke. Duh, Gan… what’s sooo new? wahahahha.. Joke. That was a joke. Not being so plastic, I do want to know how to smoke, at least for social purposes. Not that I want to be a chain smoker or so… I was just curious how it is done. *grin* Gan, a little practice makes perfect, eh? wahahahah

I just feel happy whenever I get to know people other than those in my usual circle. That is when I realize that life gives you every chances to enjoy every moments you have. It’s just that you have to first have the initiative to take that leap and then actually start exploring the world. Everything’s welcoming you with arms wide open, but it’s up to you to grab it or leave it afterso. Of course, responsibility should not be set aside and it goes with every actions we take. They’re like twins- enjoyment and responsibility, a package in one, get it?

One thing, I can go out very late but should go home not later than 12 midnight. Yeah, moreso like a cinderella story. I have a curfew for myself. 12:00 should be the latest. hehehe

Can’t wait to see the pics we shot last night.

MeatShop One time big time

Whew. That was very tiring though. I have been to Danielle aka Dang’s house for a night just to finish our 115 project. Fuck. I was tired the whole night and I wasn’t functioning properly. Sorry Dang; but I love your food. You have been very generous to me amd you fed me for two days. Huwaw! Nabusog ako ah.

And today is the day. Whew! Recital keeps everyone nervous and busy. Yey! Few hours from now I will be performing what I learned in months of training in Kontra-Gapi. I am so excited! Hopefully everything will run smoothly later and hopefully I won’t forget any piece so that I won’t look blank in front. Yay. The steps… The dance… Sometimes I forget what comes after one step. Noooo! That can’t be. God.

Ok, my second post would be quite different from what I previously ranted. I am quite happy to announce that our recital is near. I am not that excited though,but I am happy for the fact that application process is also coming to an end. I’ll be dancing ‘balitaw’, an ethnic dance from Visayas. But early this evening I practiced ‘bata’, another dance which mimics children and it has simple but heinous steps since they take high stamina and enthusiasm whenever you perform it. Uber fun, that’s what I can say. I enjoyed practicing it though I won’t be dancing it in the recital. Just wanna give it a try.

For more info on what organization I am applying to, visit this site. Haggard is thy life! But I know I can juggle up things. I believe in what I can do. That’s the spirit man. Whew!

Tomorrow would be my first day in P. Tuazon Shakey’s. Yay! Work starts again after two weeks of rest from that PFPD effing duties. God.,stress and financial problems start again. Duh, how much would I allow myself to spend for those f***ing transpo expenses? Some of my allowance go there. And to think that my weekends aren’t really weekends at all since we are working instead of taking up rest at home, that makes me go insane dude. I don’t have any sense of what school days are and what weekends are. I do render duty at the CHE tearoom every weekdays aside from doing my job as a normal student of HRIM (that is studying and conducting functions every other week). Sheesh. It is like,, it’s like… aaahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!! I want rest!

I dunno if that f***ing exam tomorrow regarding Shakey’s products would start also tomorrow. Damn it! Do I have to memorize a whole paper of product descriptions. Grrrrr… They’re not just mere descriptions dude, they contain CODES, product codes… Damn you Shakey’s. Damn you. You make my life complicated.

I wish  could just say “to hell as if I care!” But no, this is included in our class requirements. If not because of it, I should have not bothered to think of you in the first place. But no, really no… I should care.

ok, study mode starts now.

In 1,2,3,4,….

Ah, huwag na lang! bwahahah!
