Clay paint, Ballroom dance, Valentines atbp.
ang naging linggo ko? Ayos naman...masaya.
Nung nakaraang sabado at linggo, nag clay paint ako.ito ang latest hobby ko. I'm now on my 5th work of art.hehehe! Isang XL sized board with a picture of the sun, some flowers and a butterfly -- lahat sila with smiling faces.hehehe! Minsan I'll post some pictures. Ganun yung mga niccclay paint kong designs, puro may smiling faces, puro colorful. Plano kong gawing ala "Wall of Fame" yung isang section sa aking bedroom na color yellow-orange-ish na ngayon...para mas happy color.hehehe!
******************************
Nag-enroll pala ulet ako sa Ballroom dancing class na sponsored ng company. Advanced class naman this time.hehehe! The class runs every Mondays and Fridays for 2 hrs hangang Feb 18. So far we've covered, Salsa, Swing, Jive, Samba at Cha-cha. Ang saya! nkakatuwa...well nakakagulat minsan, dahil dun sa mga "advanced" steps..like the dip, at yung mga sunod sunod na full turns..hehehe! Buti na lang magagaling yung mga nakakapartner ko at wala pa naman nakabitaw, or nakalaglag sa akin.hahahah! Pero sa lahat lahat..ang naging favorite ko ay ang Samba..hehehe! Kasi yun lang yung na peperfect ko..hahahaha! Parang gusto ko na nga ito career-rin. Gusto ko mag enroll ulet or kumuha ng iba pang class talaga. Gusto ko din bumili ng totoong dancing shoes. Kaya lang grabe not lower than P2500 yung presyo. Aba, eh kung bibili ako nun, kelangan masigurado ko munang i-cacareer ko nga ito.hehehe! sayang nga lang at last session na sa Monday eh. Rhumba yun malamang -- the dance of love, sabi ng isa kong office and dance-mate. hehehe! Actually, kahapon yun dapat eh, kaso, di ko alam kung natuloy dahil sa rally at di din naman ako nakapunta dahil well, basahin niyo na lang yung kasunod na kwento. Anyway...so yun naisip ko nung isang araw, baka panu kaya kung seryosohin ko talaga ito, at gawin kong bagong career??? Occupation: Senior Software Engineer by day, Professional/Competitive Ballroom Dancer by night. Hehehehe!

Last week, was the final week for the Mr. and Ms. Valentine's voting contest sa project namin. It's actually a fund-raising activity for the benefit of Food for Hungry Minds. Just to give you an idea, eto ang mechanics nito. Mag ppledge ang mga tao for a certain girl/guy na gusto nila masama sa Dating Game. Every pledge amounts to P10. The girl/guy who gets the highest paid pledge, will be the Searcher and the next 3 highest, ay magiging mga searchees. To make the long story short, ako ang nanalong searcher! all because of my teammates' unwavering support and effort para makahanap ng boboto sa akin.hahaha! According to them, they are just "helping" me. You wouldn't believe the things they did to ensure na ako ang Ms. Valentines. grabe.hehe! The Dating Game was held yesterday, Feb 15. The actual "date" took place last night din at La Grotta Restaurant at Rufino st. The food was great and the ambience was likewise impeccable. Yun, yun ang dahilan kung bakit di ako naka attend ng ballroom class kahapon. hehehe! sana nga lang di na natuloy kasi may rally naman sa Ayala, para di ko na miss yung Rhumba.hehehe!
So those are my adventures for last week. Ah, at napanuod ko din pala yung BFGF - latest movie ni Richard Guttierrez..ang funny! nakakaaliw. hehehe!
So yun, I can't wait to see what next week will bring. hehehe!
But for now, I'll savor my weekend muna!! =D

Lucky Me
True friends are few and are very hard to find. I am lucky I got hold of some of the rarest gems.=) Friends who have been with me through thick and thin. Friends who have always been there for me. =)
Somehow, I feel this song quite accurately summarizes the kind of friendship we have, like it's our theme song.=) Actually it's more of their song for me. Well except for the line that says "your job's a joke".=D

Smitten
It's funny how one moment, one very ordinary moment can suddenly and unexpectedly turn your world upside down. One look, one conversation, one meal together, one dance. Sometimes, it takes just one to send you swirling into bliss. Suddenly, you can't wipe that silly smile off your face, you start counting the days and your stomach's invaded by thousands of fluttering butterflies. And when you ask yourself, why did I not notice this before? or just the simple question why? you can't find the answer. It's really just the moment -- the culprit is that one moment. Don't let me explain further, it's inexplicable. I, too am baffled. Just know, there is something that there wasn't there before.
