picha pie and tortang talong

Wednesday, November 23rd, 2005

at first i was afraid…

wala lang… narealize ko to a certain extent the song applies to me…

i used to be afraid to eat pizza and i really love tortang talong…

tapos for some reason i decided to try eating pizza…sa yellow cab…tapos that vacation (summer adventure) tuloy tuloy na… more yellow cab, pizza hut etc… ayun medjo na adik… kaya nga nung birthday ko lahat ng tao that i treated (3 separate occasions; 3 separate group of friends) got to eat my new favorite… bacon cheeseburger supreme ng pizzahut…

anyway, i still love tortang talong… and a host of other veggies…salad girl na…hindi parin masyado into the dressings pero really love my greens…

hmmm… must mean i’m growing up… kahit papano.

don’t take me wrong… the steaks still rate high (actually, its still way up there on my list) =>

i miss alec…

pero to those of you who know him, you probably also know that after being with him for 30 minutes you start wondering why you missed him in the first place…

lingaw lang for the first 30 minutes… after that… what were you thinking?!?

anyway, here are some lingaw moments with the angel/devil… you decide =>

Today’s Forecast:

You’re really breaking out of your shell — people are liking your new wilder self.

that’s my horoscope for today… dba medyo scary? if i go any wilder (tama ba?) i’d go crazy na…

schedule for today is…

1. clean my room - it’s so dusty, kc i was out of town for a month… which reminds me, i’ll be back in davao in a month din for the christmas break… anyway, hindi naman magulo yung room… dusty lang (i guess that comes from having a window facing the street in a really old house)… hope i actually do it… TODAY!

2. watch harry potter - sobrang excited na sila… kahapon pa nila binili yung tickets (or was it the other day?) basta kahapon bumalik sila ng gateway to change the seats and/or add more tickets… d kasi nag-reply lahat ng tao agad kung sino sasama

yun lang…

wala akong gagawin today… clean my room and watch a movie

hmmm…

enrolled na nga pala ako… kahapon… sobrang dali naman kasi mag enroll sa college, pwede talaga last minute… saka alam na ng buong college subjects mo even before you enlist…

kahapon

so kahapon i had my first team meeting for the sem…

feeling senior/staff/etc… kasi mas alam ko na ginagawa ko kesa sa field supervisor (bago kasi si sir jun at wala si sir tex - male supervisors this sem, last sem sorority kami =>)… saka i’ll be working with the same partner NGO so medyo ‘close’ na kami ng supervisor sa NGO side (yung tipong tinatawagan ka na sa bahay - peace kuya francis!)…

i will be working in a new area with new teammates so it will still take some major adjustments in my case… sa BASECO (in manila, near tondo - if you want to be pesimistic; near divisoria - if you’re looking for silver linings =>) with ferdz and lilay (as not to confuse her with lei, kc same name) both of whom i have just met so we’re not exactly friends…yet.

tapos i will no longer be working directly under a CO (miss na kita ate mau =<) so medyo feeling  promoted ako (pero lost din at the same time)…

hay! kaya ko yan.

kain

ilang araw palang ako dito pero kain na ako ng kain…

got in late tuesday so wednesday pa ako pumasok… just in time for fieldwork orientation (my third but this was surprisingly different… may special topics on ethics, sexual harrassment, etc)

anyway, kahit sobrang ikli ng break for lunch… sa treehouse parin kami (magel, esther and van) kumain (ang dami naming na order na sisig, dapat pala nag share nalang…d tuloy naubos)…then meia joined us for dessert… at nag dessert din kami lahat 

after ng orientation… ito medyo na predict ko na… kc last sem lagi kaming ganito…kain nanaman (yung tipong twice a day kayo magcho-chocolate kiss)… so sa chocolate kiss naman… esther had to leave early so d na sya kasama… at d narin kami nag linger kasi kailangan na umuli ng mga tao

kahapon, after the team meeting… nag lunch din kami ni esther sa chokiss (sa groundfloor kc she wanted pizza)…at ewan ko ba, both of us didn’t finish the food we ordered pero we still decided to split a dessert… just had to try the new peach apple cobbler…

hay! pano na ang south beach? i guess that’s just not gonna happen while i’m in manila… kasi i eat out a lot and have absolutely no control over the kitchen sa bahay… malay nyo pag nasa field na ako i might lose weight without doing south beach? kasi i don’t think prinsesa uli ako this sem… unlike last sem…

don’t worry kika, just think everything is going to be a learning experience… hehe

i’m back! =>
