today

just a little before i sleep.

i had a nice day today, despite of the rain. buti na lang at nasa loob ako ng somewhere kapag umuulan at di talaga naaabutan.

feel ko lang mag-recap, bakit ba. di wag ka magbasa. chos.

i always have a hard time looking for these darned photo studios kung saan lokasyon ng shoot for mega. punyetang sarah black studio yun dati, naligaw ako. tapos yung kay ronnie salvacion! aaarrrgh ang layo sa sibilisasyon! at iba pa! ewan ko kung bakit ganito. hay.

pero dahil sa fan ako ng research and self-reliance, nakita ko kung paano pumunta doon at natagpuan ko naman, after another ikot of the taxi at pasong tamo...

the interview went well. this time, it was ruffa gutierrez as one of the ten most beautiful issue chenes sa june (haaay hindi pa pala tapos!). nakakatuwa na siyang kausap ngayon. sensible at smart. until dumating ang editor namin. ignite kikay mode na sila dalawa. pero fun pa rin. humingi pa ng advise ang lola regarding sa isang role offer decision niyang gagawin hehe, bilang dineconstruct ko ang role niya sa DESPERADAS ng bahagya nung chika hehe. e di nag-character breakdown mode ako for her. nakatulong naman daw sa desisyon hihi. we'll see...

gusto ko ang atmosphere sa shoot niya dahil mababait ang mga tao, from the stylist to the venue oic etc. hindi katulad ng ibang house of photogs na hay... taray lang ang mode. tse. ito okay. kaya happy akong umalis doon. wala nga lang bts per dedma na. may iba pa ko lakad e...

since maaga natapos, natuloy ang plano to pass by the inquirer office. moolah collection from a very old gig hehe. :)

at dahil rich na ako ng isang libo at ilang daan hehe, atak sa powerbooks para sa isang post-mother's day gift sa aking jowa. na ang sabi sa akin e...

siya: di naman ako nanay a!
ako: e... nanay din kita e!

chos! haha yeah ganun ka-suryal ang cheka kanena hehe. in between puffs.

i surprised her sa office niya at 3.15pm. sumakto naman sa yosi break so dun ko binigay ang gift.


eto ang ad copy niyan...

pamasahe from marikina to makati on four different public transportation vehicles...237.50 pesos (fx, mrt, taxi, jeep)

stephenie meyer's new york times bestelling novel...309 pesos (after a 10% powerbooks powercard deduction)

the look on my girlfriend's face full of delight as she got the gift and hugged me and gave me a kiss... priceless.

there are some things money can't buy. for everything else... rumaket ka ng husto! hehehehe. choz.

my gf said there was this indian restaurant sa kalye where she works, so that's where i decided to have late lunch at 4pm. man, authentic nga siya! post ko pix soon. yummy. may mutton! pero walang lamb! hm. parang mixture ng central at south india e, kasi sa south, kung san maraming tamil, mas vegetarian ang fare nila. carnivorous sa northern parts.

shet na-miss ko india bigla...

after one hour (one hour, mother!), i had early dinner naman with the folks who texted na nasa may mall sila near my place, so that's where i went. kasama nila sina sanse at tito mario from the US. daming balikbayan mode sa family these days hmmm... at dahil sa di nila maubos ang orders, pinaubos sa akin! kinain ko naman! tanga...

at since trapped tayo dito sa gabi due to the rain -- at dahil ayoko na ng further carbo loading! -- nag-gym myself akey. 1.5 hours. puwede na. i made friends with a lola (a card-carrying lola, senior citizen ito ati) who wanted to try the lat machine after she saw me using it, after she spent 75 minutes (sabi ng digital counter) sa treadmill. thought balloon niya siguro, "kung kaya ng girl na malaki ang tiyan, matambok ang pwet at malapad ang noo, kaya ko rin!"

tapos eto na. yey!

yes i like today. rare na may ganitong days. yung weird na fun na kakaiba na heartwarming na wala lang... labu-labo pero malinaw siya. malinaw na maganda.

basta.
