Haynako, masaya na naman ang mga kalalakihan, I BET!

The first Hooters resto in Manila is now open (last week pa) and it's located at San Miguel By the Bay. so anyway me, nana and ailyn tried it out this evening.

I love their chicken wings, but we should have ordered the hot sauce instead of mild sauce na walang zing!
And can you believe they charge like 50 bucks for a 3 tablespoons of ranch dip sauce??? I mean, hello, i could buy a whole bottle with how much they're charging!!

Obviously, majority of the place was congested with ogling and drooling men. Pero hello, the girl waitresses ha!! I thought aside from its famous chicken wings, Hooters is known for their "Hooter Girls".

I'm sorry and lait aside ha, but they all look like exotic and native to me.

Foreigner siguro ang pumili sa kanila, di kaya???

Some were kinda pretty, but most of the girls might remind you of those who chose a path where it involves cleaning houses, doing the laundry..you know..the domestic kind.

Anyway, Hooter girls from the U.S. were still there acting as the local hooters' trainors. And akala ko pa naman sila yung mga serbidora noh.

friendly friends, iba nga ang coffee kagabi sa starbucks boni highstreet.



bukod sa lahat tayo eh nagpalpitate at nag-karerahan sa bilis ang heart beats,
eto at gising pa din ako. chumi-chirp chirp na nga ang mga ibon sa labas at maliwanag na.










...ay normal ko pala ito.





let me sleep!................. i have a long day ahead of me.

UPDATED: Check my recent twit located at the right side... astiiiiiigy...


Recently, i bought a cool black and blue wayfarer shades. when i got home, my sister decided that she liked it and started claiming na it's hers. Kulang na lang lagyan ng name.being the loving sister that i am, i relented besides I have another design in mind.

I saw this being worn by sienna miller and nicole richie. nicey nice!

It was in year 2001 (or was it 2002?) when I first saw this South Korean movie MY SASSY GIRL. It was partially based on a true story told in a series of love letters written by Kim Ju...Kim sam...Kim Chee...Kim Pee.. oh whatever.. it was written by a Korean (of course), Jumong yata yung name. Jokey.=)

Anyway, I instantly fell in love with the movie and its characters. I swear crying mode talaga ako kahit na it was projected as a comedy movie. The movie's popularity was such a hit that I can't think of anyone I know who haven't seen the movie.

Two things that made me smile yesterday (despite my soooper tiring day at our golf tournament):


1. Rainbow.
I love it!! I saw this huge huge rainbow on our way back to Microtel. I don't know ha, pero its so pretty. And i always feel giddy like a five year old whenever i see rainbows. I swear!! Talagang super titig ako ang chine-check ko pa kung ROYGBIV ba ang formation nila..hehhehehe..as if naiiba noh.=)




2. Arrival of my laptop sleeves!!!

I was expecting this to be delivered on Tuesday. Not Monday. But yehey treat indeed. Thanks to (edited link) GETNOYP. Aylavet!!

I originally ordered for the black and white zebra print with pink lining version of this, but its sold out already. Okay na rin 'to. Nicey naman eh.:)

its so magulo na here at my Upsaid site.

Carnival it is. I'll try to 'organize' it later.

Kiss! kiss!

WHY peppermill, do i look like I listen to Britney Spears and say, Choopetah songs? I am deeply offended!

and you're lying. u don't read my posts. because if you've been reading my blog you'll know what type of music i listen to.

tsaka, anu ba, 7 songs lang nandun. Naligaw pa nga si Sara Bareilles dun eh:)

i listen to r&b and chill once in a while. (AND, I luvluvluv Chris Brown, he's not rock diba??)=)

If that multipy page shocked you, well, my friendster page would probably give you a heart attack :

Hi. I tweaked my Twitter badge a bit and AYLAVET!!!!=)

Who's using Twitter? I know I already asked you last year pa pero who knows baka into twitter na din kayo.

Nandito ka daw. Sabi nila.



Naks for the first time hindi ka nagparamdam.


di ka talaga nagpaparamdam na.



Wooooohooooooooooooo...... bago yan ha................


NAKSSSSSSSS! Mag-pa CHEESE BURGER ka namaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!

Very Rude.

So, kanina at work, I was engaged in a senseless conversation with a workmate about vacations and beaches.
I was telling her how magastos it could be lalo na kung malalayo talaga and you really have to save lotsa moolah because beach activities definitely doesn't come in cheap. I'm talking about the parasailing, jetski, helmet diving kind of activities.

Not sex on the freaking beach. THAT IS CHEAP.

Well, anyway, imagine my surprise when this girl came up to us and said "Yeaaaaaah. Grabe talaga, especially at Bora diba, EXPENSIVE. Buti na lang I stopped saving na for that. Having a rich boyfriend comes in handy, hehehe. Jowwwwwk."

Ahm. Excuse me. Do I know you? Who are you? And how dare you cut our conversation just like that as if we've been sharing secrets and spending summers for the past 20 years?

Ang bastos mo eh.

Bastos din kaya if I said "Ha? Funny naman you said that. I mean, he comes in handy during your luxurious vaykays pero he can't buy you a decent shade of lipstick (coral pink), he can't give you money to colour your hair (hair roots alert!) and you have lots of tigidig. Facial, perhaps?!"


Tsk. Washington Epals eh.

hi. Im blogging thru my fone.try try lang:P

Wala pa magawa dto sa offce.
Ang saya saya!!!
Blogging like its texting lang.

I'm so mababaw.

no, make that WHO is tanga?

Our whole unit were eating at this pricey jap resto kanina at my workplace (gamblingan it is.)
   
so okay, after placing our orders i decided to make my own dipping sauce for the tuna sashimi and the california rolls. As I was about to mix the freshly grated wasabi & the soy sauce (wasabi jo-yu), my boss suddenly exclaimed:

"ANO GINAGAWA MO?"

"huh? i'm making my dipping sauce!" sabay turo sa ginagawa ko.

"I KNOW. EH BAKIT MO DYAN HINAHALO? ASHTRAY YAN EH!"

Fcukityfcukityfuck. I mistook the effing ashtray for a dipping sauce container!!! I swear the porcelain cup doesn't look like an ashtray!!! The ashtray looked somewhat like this:

"Your biggest problem is that you're the world's #1 procrastinator!"

WTF?

Okay so you want to talk, and well, maybe I've been putting you off for quite some time pero busy nga ako eh.

Masama ba na ang isagot ko eh.."Tomorrow, or next time na lang?"

"Why can't we talk NOW?"

I'm not in the mood. There's always plenty of time. Don't call me a procrastinator because I'm not.

"You were always like this. You never finished anything on time. Lahat naka-hang para sa'yo. Some things can't wait."

So I guess, its YOU who has the problem. PATIENCE, you definitely lack that. Diba sabi nga, patience is...gold.. or...is the best policy or something.

I have monstrous ego daw. Kung hindi daw ako cramming at dini-delay ang work, siguro hindi ako matatambakan ng work. HELLOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Ang kapal talaga. Ok fine. Sige, there are times na instead of searching for work related topics on the net, I would suddenly find myself lurking on internet celebrity gossip sites, like who is dating who. Pero minsan lang yun.

If some of you find this as a problem sige! Sasali ko sa p.r.o.c.r.a.s.t.i.n.a.t.o.r.s. a.n.o.n.y.m.o.u.s.

Meron ba nun? Sige titingin ako mamaya. Mag friendster muna ako.

I'M CALLING ALL PROCRASTINATORS OUT THERE! LET'S UNITE AND PROVE ALL THESE BLOKEHEADS WRONG! LET'S UNITE AND FORM A SOLID FOUNDATION! LET'S MEET tomorrow. OR next week. BASTA MAG-MEET TAYO LAHAT! Someday.

Promise.

I am not a fan of sneakers.

Really.

Sure, I have this pink (with subtle touch of mint green) converse, but, hello, it's pink.

BUT when a pair of sneakers is really, really, really CUTE, then they're cute. HEHHEHEHE.

But seriously, I nearly peed on my pants(kidding) when I saw the 'featured' shoes at the Royal Elastics store in Mall of Asia.

It's the H arajuku Lovers Sneakers by Gwen Stefani!!!!

It's waaaaay better than Gwen's L.A.M.B. collection (also available at Royal Elastics).

I am not kidding!!! Those sneakers are so bo cool, iloveit!!

I mean, they're the shit! They're the effing b-a-n-a-n-a-s of all sneakers!!

Lookie here for my personal fave:

(wait for pixies to load)



Harajuku Lovers in Rainbow Franks


Harajuku Lovers in Rainbow Zigzag


Harajuku Lovers in Feeling Yummy from Head to Toe * the only available design so far (HiTop-KogalTex)*


Harajuku Lovers in Safety Net


Harajuku Lovers in Bubble Pop



and this one's a Converse but i heart it as well:


Converse Hi-Notebook


I've been obssesing about these Harajuku Lovers shoes eversince I first laid my eyes on them.
The price is a bitch though, almost Php 5,000. So I'm still confused. Very.
I don't spend that much on sneakers, hello.

Anyway, I askd my mom for her opinion and she said "weird", "funny looking", "isip bata" and "loud designs". When she asked me how much the shoes cost, I said Php700.

No need to put her on panic mode or something.

I wanna know your opinion. Are these shoes even worth it? i wanna hear from you guys. whaddya think???????

***As if it was quite an afterthought, my mom came back and said, "parang pang luka-loka. Cynthia Patag style."

Okay mother, I think it is times like this that I should be reminding you about one of your fashion faux pas:





Remember, mother?
:)

I hate Seattle's Best.

Several weeks before Christmas, I bought my first SBC Holiday drink at Seattle's branch in Mall of Asia.

I'm not really a fan of their coffees and lattes but I got swayed with the way they photoshopped their Hazel Javakula so I ordered one.

Okay, actually, the real reason was that they have a super good WI-FI signal there. And nothing beats sipping coffee and smoking while lounging with your ipod touch/laptop and downloading music vids. J

I'm so mababaw.

So anyway, while my cousin and I were placing our orders, we chanced upon this display goodie set which includes a planner with year round coupons, metal case pen, a mug and a canvas tote bag. The goodie set was placed purposefully at the counter. Strategy talaga diba. We thought we could just buy the whole set off the counter. Pero syempre hindi.

The barista explained that you have to get the 'SBC Great Holiday Giveaway Card' and accumulate 20 stickers to get the Php 1500 worth of freebies.

It's just like how they do it at Starbucks so I don't need to expound.

I contemplated for awhile. I was meaning to get the Starbucks Planner again but when my cousin pointed out the barista's shirt, I, again, was won over.

The shirt read: Because you deserve more than a planner….

I mean, you have to give them props for making that tagline because I sure was convinced that I deserve the whole set rather than a measly planner from Starbucks. And besides, I'm a real sucker for anything that is free. Nevermind that I have to spend TWICE the amount of the whole set on coffees and Christmas drinks as long as it's free, then everybody happy. Look at it this way: them getting income from me and in return, Aina getting thrilled for getting cheap freebies.

Aside from being a sucker for free items, I think getting something in return makes you feel appreciated. It means that they value their loyal customers.

Soon after that, the people from SBC have turned me into a javakula and flavored latte devotee. Ironically, I'm still not a fan of their coffee but I forgo all that just to get the goodies. I did this for how many days and most of the time consecutively pa. Finally, after downing 20 javakulas and lattes and experiencing freaky heart palpitations (it's been a year na rin naman since the doctor advised me to lessen my caffeine intake), I was ready to claim it. Yey!!!

I was so excited and thrilled! I have never been that excited since… well… since..actually, well let's see… I'm that excited whenever I purchase new make-ups. Or gadgets. Or opening my e-mails.

So okay. Maybe I easily get excited over trivial things but then again, this is different. It's like running a marathon and getting first to the finish line and now it's like your just waiting for your crown..or scepter..or medal or whatever it is they give you after running a marathon. A towel?

So anyway, I entered SBC shop and pompously handed my promo card.

"Hi! Can I get na my Holiday Giveaway Set?"

YippeeeeYaaaayeaaaah.

"I'm sorry ma'am but we ran out of stock."

YippeeeYaa------Hu—WHAT?

"Huh? What do you mean you ran out of stock? Dito lang? or I can claim it sa other branch?"

"Pwede naman po ma'am pero may shortage po talaga sa stock. Pero try nyo rin po sa iba."

Bwiset diba. Pa-promo ng pa-promo tapos wala naman palang stock. They asked me to write down my name and contact number dahil since may scarcity sila sa stocks eh naging by reservation basis na!! I asked how long it will take them to get stocks.

"Di po namin alam. Nagka-problema po kami kasi with our suppliers."

Pakialam ko, diba. Basta nakalagay sa card i-claim ko kapag napuno ko na yung card.

Ang pinaka-cute dun,aba Pebrero na hindi pa rin ako tinatawagan.

I also went and tried my luck at SBC Alabang. I asked if I can claim my goodie set and same answer… they ran out of stock. Hindi ba nila na foresee na madami talaga ang magki-claim nun. Hindi daw and they change their promo procedure. I asked if it was indicated sa promo card na subject to changes yung pag-claim because I don't see any disclaimer eh. Hindi daw. Was there an advisory informing others about their new procedure and lack of supply??
By this time, ayaw na akong tignan nung barista. She was a bit panicky and she kept on looking at her boss as if crying out for help. I told her na from November until early January eh napuno ko na yun. Kulang na lang kalibitin lang ako eh hihimatayin na ako sa nerbyos dahil sobra sobra ng kape ang naco-consume ko at pagkatapos eh ni bolpen wala kayong maibigay.

And teka lang ha, there are some baristas of SBC that are not accommodating ha, parang sila pa yung irita kapag nagtatanong ka.
Parang hello, mga bwiset kayo. I consumed 20 of your stupid coffee to the point that I was imagining that my pee smells of javakula and latte na. Tapos mga uncouth pa kayo.hmp.

Okay. Not that I would really go out of my way to actually sniff and snuffle my pee.

Feeling ko lang. Hehe.

Basta, the thing here is instead of giving rotten excuses, why can't they just admit that they made a very big and stupid mistake. Be apologetic. I'm sure there are plenty of people out there who were equally aggravated by the whole situation. And the least we wanted is an annoyed barista who cannot even justify the crap they give as an excuse.

Thanks to my cousin who was equally miffed by the whole situation, she decided to call one of SBC's branch outlets. She learned that I can claim na my goodie set the following week that she made that call(mid-FEBRUARY yun) pero sya daw sa March pa because she failed to have her name listed sa reservation list nila. Badtrip diba!!!!

So fina-fina-finally, last February 18, I got na my SBC goodie set. And to be honest, I wasn't that excited na. December pa lang ina-anticipate mo na eh. When January came, my interest gone poof na. Good thing Starbucks extended their planner promo so I completed my card in just one week. And guess what? I got my planner just as they promised it—when you complete your card. And at least January pa nun!

Since I'm not really that attracted na with the goodie set, I told my cousin na she could have mine na muna. Ako na lang mag-claim sa MARSO!!!!

Sobra talaga.

So March na, anyone out there who wants a fcuking SBC goodie set?


P/S: SBC planner is not really a planner. It looks more like a diary. Not that I need another one of that. Gasssssshhhh.

I am sooo sticking na talaga with 3-in-1 coffee.

I mean Starbucks.

And besides Toffee Nut Latte is waaaay better than the Javakula shit.

I mean really. Hindi ako bitter ocampo okay.

I am not going back to SBC anymore.

Okay wait. I take that back. I shouldn't take it personally diba. Let's be mature here. Of course I will still come back and sip coffee coffeehan coffee there. And I didn't say that just because there's a major eye-candy lounging inside their comfy chairs making my heart (and my cousin's heart as well) skip a bit. Cutie guy talaga, swear. Thumpy thump thump.

Let's just say that if ever this year they will be having the same promo, I don't think I will still be easily provoked. They have to come up with something extraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa special for me to feel giddy and excited again!

Like a whole set of MAC make-up products perhaps?





Edited:

I got mine na. I'm just using the ballpen.


Bleh.
