in-shock

my boss (d' one who hired me and convinced me to work for him) was calling me the other day. mom picked up the phone and relayed the message. he said that 'he'll catch me later', so i never bothered to return his call. anyway i was working that night so i thought that i can just ask him when i get there. when i got there, my co-worker was saying that the people from management went home early around 3pm and they are at rosario's drinking. i was like...? (confused) why? it's not yet friday? everybody looked at me and said...you don't know??? carlos got fired! he was calling everybody to say goodbye.
i was so shocked! i called him right away and spoke to him just for few minutes.
it's already saturday and it still did'nt hit me. has'nt sink yet. i'm still in denial.

now who would be the crazy one to buy me any of this from my wishlist? ...
unless i really have to make super sip-sip to death to my favorite aunt which is a huge questionmark??? since she never buys a purse more than $200 for herself. what whould make her buy a LV for me. i guess i'ma have to work my ass off to get one for my self.
i wish i was born rich. a hilton, or one of the olsen twins, i will also be happy to be adopted by richie's. so then i can afford freakin' all the designer clothes, designer handbags and designer shoes. i don't care about diamonds or golds or platinums.
all i want are purses from louis vuitton, balenciaga , fendi , gucci, channel
or maybe if blessed ...a hermes. (ok i'm pushing it)
honestly, i don't even have any place to go to,to use these purses. the lv cabas i bought for valentines i used it only once. my gucci belt bag...maybe twice. the lv musette tango i used so many times and probably kept it in the dust bag for more than a year since pong commented that he got tired looking at that bag and then he bought me a huge fendi bag which i only use it as a diaper bag.
my everyday use purse is last years coach hampton weekend tote in black and blue where in i carry my lv portefeuille accordeon, which by the way, i use for parties or dinners. i carry it on my wrist with the detachable golden chain. and of course my oh soooooooo used and oooooooooold lv monogram key and change holder.
and all other purses that i have which is like hundreds of them. by the way, they are all cheap but cute but i never, ever bought a fake designer. been tempted to... but just don't have the pride to carry a fake. i would rather carry my cute and cheap purses than be caught with a fake. i saw an episode before on the pinoy chanel where rachel lobangco (did i mispelled that one?) was showing off her vuitton collection. she had a little less than a hundred. maybe by now it's more. that was amazing!
it's true what she said that only the one's that owns a genuine vuitton can spot a fake one.

bye bye reeves

i finally had the courage to submit my resignation letter to my boss, the place i worked for 8 years. no more looking back. this place nurtured me, developed my skills, appreciated all my hard work. they gave me all the love and understanding no other place can give me.
i love my colleagues, my superiors.....but damn! talk about hard work. i should have done this long time ago. the kindness was not just enough to meet my needs. i go home from this place with back sore, inflammed spur on my foot, starved from no time to sit and munch on even just a peppermint. my bladder always full from not even taking time to go restroom thinking that it'll be worth-it so i can go home in time. in time is like 2-3 hours past my supposedly time to go home. i'm so stupid to be clinging to this job. thank god i had the courage today to say goodbye.
will i miss this place? only time can tell.

the olsens for badgley mischka

my mom's appointment went by well. biopsy results were better than we were told before. the oncologist was saying that my mom will never be cured but the options of this type of cancer is far better than what he was telling my mom when she got admitted few weeks ago. she's gonna go thru another course of chemotherapy which is a lot more aggressive. she's going every week then one week off. blood works will be more ofter. she was warned that this will make her prone to blood transfusions and infection. inspite of all the warning, my mom's hope was regained. she's happier. i'm thankful.

recieved the month's valentine special star studio magazine thru tfc's monthly subscriptions and i was going thru the pages and reading the article of pinoy good looking hunks...models and actors. i was so amazed how witty borgy manotoc's answer with the question...
if given 100 pesos, what would he buy from it?
he says... "a beer, candle and a cigarette.
the beer for me(borgy), a candle for her and a cigarette for both of us when we're done."
is'nt that a smart ass/fuckin' playa answer! awesome!
he's so delicious and hot!...and he'll always be, what ever happens.
for goodness! hellooooooooooo...
he's a freakin' marcos.

valentines

seeing angelina so often in tabloids with her louis vuitton cabas mezzo and jessica with her keepall 55 (major drool* slurp*) makes me wanna have it.










































no intentions of buying it (just oooogling...) but my favorite salesperson was there and took care of me as always (ahh! just hit myself on the head with a frying pan. stupid me.) i always wonder why i don't buy my louis from saks... it's because of this guy! i love his sales pitch! (ok.ok. i really love to have this stuff.)

anyway, before hand pong was asked while he was buying his molton brown and art of shaving kit, 'what he was giving me for valentines'? he replied.... whatever she wants! and so as we were walking out of the LV shop, the guy saw pong and was smiling, pong blurted...this (bragging) are her valentines gift and dinner at mc'donalds. the guy said..."you are so mean! " ( he thinks pong was kidding) i was thinkin'...boy! this is gonna be long weeks of no dining out and shoppin' for me. even mcdo! i'd settle for tuyo and itlog at home! (you just don't know)

my cabas piano and keepall 50 (brag alert)

was able to accomplish so many things these past few days, even though i feel like crap with this severe sinus allergy. diphenhydramine causes me to slow down. i hate that shit, but i get better sleep. days gone by faster. i hate sleeping but my bed calls me out. dayquil pumps me up. i feel like a druggie now.
we have decided to go home to phils this spring. that would be summer over yonder. we just have to talk to my mom's oncologist this coming week. maybe he's planning something else for my mom. my mom feels super these few days i was off. thank goodness.
while i was at walmart to pick up developed pictures, i bought arend a little rechargable motorcycle ride yesterday. it's so cool! i wish i had one of those when i was a kid. he's got 3 trikes but he don't enjoy riding in those yet. besides being lazy pedaling, he's too short to be reaching the pedals as well. his swingset was set up at the backyard but he's too scared to be climbing those yet. he just loves to play kick balls, push his cart and digging the dirt at the backyard. weather seems to be nice, cold and windy in the morning and just right at noon. pollen counts high though.
got in touch of an old friend from phil. she's almost 40 years old, she's actually the oldest sis of my classmate in highschool and their youngest is my bestfriend - kumare. we lived in the same boarding house when i was in college. we were all from the same probinsya.
makes me feel good to hear from them.

was working the weekend and off sunday. but my sunday came by fast. after work i watched in her shoes, zorro,and half light. picked up my friend from airport and spent the rest of my sunday sleeping. ma's been feverish but felt better today. it's nippy outside, just makes me wanna stay in doors. i heard about the wowowee tragedy on the news. so sad. i still feel stuffy and gets better on and off. thanks to dayquil. pong had halfday off because he's feeling bad also. gotta go get some groceries when arend wakes up in a bit.

woke up from few hours of sleep. i worked last night from 5 days off. it was a long night. i had a chance to talk to a classmate of mine from ceu. it's been 13 years since we last saw each other. it's nice to know that she remembered me. she says that from my pics from friendster that she almost did'nt recognize me. taba ko raw! hehe! we talked about our classmates that we could'nt remember some of their names and lastnames. unfortunately we both lost our annual book. mine was with my mom's stolen luggage on her way here to states with her so many years collection of gold jewelries. hay! sayang!(the gold of course!) she invites me to visit vegas, i have been wanting to. she's a dear person, so jolly and energetic.
i talked to dawn also. heard the news about her planned resignation from work. too bad it did'nt work for her. she had so many issues. i wish her luck. she's a good mentor, smart and fun. heard about heather's boob job. i was'nt surprise in a way. we also talked about my mom. i started crying and she said that i'm gonna be cryin' everyday of my life because she does. her mom had died of cancer a year and sometime ago and she's been thru so much depression pills and isues after.
i still feel congested and stuffy. it's been so many days now. i had taken all kinds of over the counter sinus medications. nothing seem to help. everytime i feel a little better, then i think of my mom's situation, my tears start flowing then i get clog up again. hay!
anyway, i hope this weekend will be a better one. my mom seems to be in a good spirits today. i admire her for that. i have to be like her.

pong took my mom to her appointment yesterday morning. they left around 830 am. it's where he works anyway and besides he used to work with the people who's gonna do the procedure to my mom. surprisingly arend slept more that he's used to. i woke up at 11 am still feeling so tired and blue. i called pong around 12 noon and he said ma's still asleep. maybe for another 2 hours.
they had given her a preliminary results of the scan they did. her tumor to the duodenum which was there even before seems to be the same size. but her pancreas had another tumor which is oncologist had suspected or maybe knew even before but my mom never had symptoms.
on the other hand. so strange that arend been wanting to snuggle and snooze around us which he never does. coz last night after dining out with celest for her bday. arend came hanging out until she left and never even asked to go back to his lola's room. he asked for his milk then went to sleep.
