Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End

First movie date again after a year or so and here in NZ. Not the best of the 3 Pirates movies but definitely still worth watching if you're a fan. Lots of new characters, tons of betrayals, another great adventure!

He proposed...

Last Sunday, May 27, me and my 3 sisters went to the airport to pick up Darwin. When we got to the airport, I was weirded out because all of my sisters were too excited for Darwin's arrival. Jac brought her camera. Jaz's bf was also there in the airport with a videocam. They all wanna go up first to meet Darwin and they just wanted me to stay down. But I can't keep still so I went up too. When I saw Darwin, I froze as he walked towards me... suddenly whispered stuff to my ear about us, our relationship... got a tiny box from his jacket, opened it (and inside was a ring), got down on one knee... and popped the question "will you marry me?"




Of course, I said yes.

Today is also our 6th anniversary.

My engagement ring :)

2 more nights...

...and Dar is finally here!!! Can't wait!

Just to add more stuff to blog about, I saw a link to Smooth-E's myspace. Some of his videos are pretty funny.

Night out with sisters

Jaz, Anna, Jenny

My sisters visited me in my flat. We went out to watch Spider-man 3 and I found it corny. Being a girl, I should have probably liked it with all the crying stuff and singing and dancing, but I'm not a fan of Brokeback Mountain and musicals (Jaz calls it 'Spider-man the musical'). My sisters and I were all laughing when Peter Parker came out emo and all.

Who knew that Spider-man was emo?

The movie might be a waste of money but we had a good laugh. Afterwards, we went clubbing for like an hour hahaha

Mother's Day!

I went home for the weekend (coz it's mother's day). My 2 sisters and I got our mom a big nice bag which cost a lot and that is why we did halfsies for our mother's day present (plus the fact that it was also one of my sisters birthday this month and I don't wanna end up broke). My other sister got our mom The Queen DVD (which she gave last night and we all watched it and it was boring, for me anyways).

We had a nice family dinner here in town at some Chinese restaurant. Food is good but service is bad.

Picture picture! (No digital camera in hand, so camera phone will do)

Just some random things

1. I've finally finished all urgent things I need to do for marketing (at work). That part is over and at least there's not much pressure anymore at work.

2. I realized that there are some people who did understand why I decided to leave home and rent on my own in a place I am just fairly new to, without any explanation. I guess if you're someone who lived with my family, you will understand why I sacrificed the company of my sisters and free lodging to living alone in a place where I practically have no friends and having more expenses and bills to pay.

3. I got to talk to Dar in Yahoo Messenger, even for just a couple of hours.

4. My youngest sister texted me that she has something for me. She was on a 5 day school trip to Rotorua. Ano kaya yun?? I hope it's something nice! Hehe..

5. American Idol - Bon Jovi night (yeah, AI here is kinda late). I love Blake! Check out his version of Bon Jovi's "You Give Love a Bad Name".

Like Simon said, half of the audience will love it and half will hate it. I'm part of the half who loves it and my 2 sisters were part of the half that hated it. Love it or hate it?

6. I was going through my stuff and I found this photo of me when I was a kid.

I'm the one who's holding up 2 Barbie dolls. I guess bata pa lang ako, autistic na. Tsaka, ok lang nakasuksok sa kama basta nakahiga yun mga manika ko at nakakumot pa. Hehe

Retail therapy

I am feeling low — stressed out from work (lots of people asking me to do lots of things although they say "don't feel pressured" I still feel pressured), Dar is super busy lately and have no time to talk to me, and the gloomy, cold, rainy weather (ugh winter is coming). So after work, I passed by jay-jays and bought myself 2 tops.


The cartoon says it all.

The Simpsons on American Idol

This is already old but it's still funny. For me, the part of Lisa where she's imitating Paula is the funniest.

My sis Jac's birthday

Family dinner in one of the restaurants here in town (Monsoon Poon) - my sister's treat of course! Since Anna was on her school field trip, our cousin Jeck took her place. Lol.

The ambiance was quite nice - cozy and has that "asian" feel. Sorry for the reddish pictures but as you can see, the place has red lanterns and just a few lights above.

The bday girl and I

The bday girl and our parents. Haha masunget si father.

My sis jaz and her bf

Anna's proxy

That's most of the ok pictures. I was so hungry I didn't even bother to take pictures of the food. After eating, I was so full I didn't bother to take pictures of us anymore. Haha

Anyhoo, happy birthday to you sis. Cheers

National Coffee Day + Pretending I was a student day

My sister was on her way to her school listening to the radio when she heard that it was national coffee day today. She text me and we met and we went to Starbucks to get our free cup of coffee. Yey!

Late in the afternoon I went with my family to my youngest sister's freshman orientation at Victoria university coz I thought there's gonna be a family dinner after. Turns out, when we got to the school, there were lots of delicious and healthy finger foods. Every time I would pass the food table, I would grab a sandwich or a celery stick or a carrot stick or biscuit. Hehehe... Before I knew it, I was already full. So I wouldn't look so much as someone who was just there for the free food, I went around and grab some brochures (School of Design and some information on student financial aid). Personally, I am thinking of going back to school but I still don't know! But what made me smile (aside from the free food) is the free colorful post-its that I got too. Hahaha... yeah mababaw lang kaligayahan ko

Yey, it's pay day

So I got my money. Did my budgeting. Paid my bills. Like I do every fortnight.

Gosh. Pretty much nothing is happening in my life right now. I'm too depressed maybe.

I need to go out and smell some fresh air.

Or do some shopping.
