The Symphony of Parol at Ayala Triangle

Dec 31st, 2010 7:46pm

I’m one of the biggest fans of lights. I’m fascinated with it ever since I’m a little kid. This is why I love to visit overlooking sites. The lights look like twinkling diamonds enticing me so much. That’s also the reason why I’m fond of decorating Christmas lights. Unfortunately I only get to see them during Christmas seasons.

After visiting the Policarpio St. in Mandaluyong. We also visited Ayala Triangle to witness the “Symphony of Parols”. Parols and Christmas light dances through the groovy Christmas carols. There were smoke effect and green dancing laser lights at the middle of the show (which according to Marko’s niece is a green snake going up and down). Combination of blue and purple lights were hanging on the trees (apparently two of my favourite combinations). I also love the light decors along the street of Ayala Avenue which I call the “tear drop” lights. Same lights decors along Alabang.

Show starts at 6:00pm. Approximately of 15 minutes I guess. The shows repeats every after 30 minutes.

Niko begging us to go. He’s afraid of the light show. Most especially the green laser lights which he calls the up and down snakes.

I won’t get tired falling in love with lights. I’ll be forever in love with them.

Training Log: Day 1

Dec 28th, 2010 12:54pm

Yesterday, December 27th I successfully woke up early to jog together with my mom and dad. We jog around the circles of Sta. Lucia Mall. We were able to jog 4 rounds. Actually, it was variants of jog, walk and walk :) 

This morning, I was upset because my dad didn’t wake me up to join them with our supposedly daily jogging routine. He thought i have office today. Well, I do have but I decided to “work from home".

Right now, I’m planning to visit the gym to trim out some fats. Anyway, I also tried to drink a slimming tea since I’m suffering constipation for the past few days.

Did you know that herbal slimming tea has “laxatives" that helps to induce bowel movements in our body specially during constipation. However, too much of it is not healthy. I’m trying to avoid it as much as possible because there are some possibilities you get dependent on it.

I love you Mom. 

Why do we take our moms for granted? When they are the only ones who are capable of unconditional love? Sad but true :(

Post-Christmas Shopping

Dec 27th, 2010 11:48am

Yesterday, we decided to go for post-Christmas shopping at Greenhills. We were expecting fewer people on malls since Christmas day just ended. As usual there is still a heavy traffic on the streets of Greenhills. Parking lot is full and there were still shoppers doing their post-Christmas shopping like us.

The clothes I was planning to buy before Christmas were already sold out. It seems like all the nice stuffs were already gone.

I told my mom that we hop to Robinsons Galleria. We bought few clothes for my brothers. While I look for a perfect fit pair of slacks and jeans. Unfortunately it took me almost 2 hours to find one. The slacks I tried won’t fit me. My lower body is not proportionate I guess. While I was in the fitting room you can hear the banging on the walls. I was really having hard time wearing and taking off those pair of jeans. I almost tried all styles. Then finally I got two. The saleslady exclaimed, “finally!" and yes I heard her.

I’m so speechless…

Christmas eve when we were exchanging gifts and opening Christmas presents I got this box. When I opened it, it was wrapped with a message. Surprise?

Then to my surprise when I opened it I saw this Panasonic Lumix LX3. A message again in the box “put the battery inside the camera", so I did it. When I opened the camera I saw these pictures.

I’m so blessed with a very loving boyfriend. I love you so much honey!

Christmas Decors at Famous Policarpio Street, Mandaluyong City

Dec 21st, 2010 1:36pm

Decorating and lighting up houses has been a tradition at Policarpio Street, Mandaluyong City.  Finally, I got to see it for myself. This year (2010), only few houses participated in decorating their houses. There were only 5 houses decorated based on their unique themes.

First house you can see is Sta. Claus themed house. Apparently, that night GMA 7 was having a taping for their morning talk show.

The next house you will see is decorated with Christmas lights. The gate took our attention. The house almost looked like diamonds.

The next house looked a little bit futuristic with its neon light colors.

There were also rain dear inspired house. Miniature rain dear statues were all over the house. 

According to my friends, Policarpio street was unlike before when each houses participates in decorating their house. There were bazaars also in vacant warehouse and street foods. I don’t know what happened this year. Even Ayala streets are not fully decorated with lights.

Reminding me of my second performance evaluation for the year. I did passed my self-evaluation but still nervous on the results of my performance review from my manager. This only means, I need to work extra to extra hit my targets.

Training Log

I hope I can start up a serious training log starting next. I only have few weeks left for my gym membership. Neverttheless, I can still do cardio while jogging with my mom and dad every morning before I go to work. All I need is dedication and more criticisms that I’m being fat.

This reminds me of my control freak teachers. Not to mention our high school principal who has been legacy in our school for being terror among all students. But she’s been replaced by nun last year who apparently is far more worst than her.

I wish I can tell that I HATE YOU!

There are some instances in our lives that we meet this person whom we are bound to hate. We hate an irrelevant person in our life. We hate the tiniest detail of their well-being. Any word that comes out from their mouth annoys us because it’s just a piece of crap and bullshits. They tend to practice unsolicited promises and we are left with wishful thinking. Their head is almost filled with air that might have caused them brain damage that is why they crafted their own world of deceptions. They can be a pathological liar. It’s been their habit to fabricate stories and make other people believe it. You can never trust them; they will make use of your weaknesses to manipulate you. Don’t expect to count on them because they only care for themselves nothing more. They have this attitude of counting what’s in store for them before deciding to make rightful decisions. But instead of thinking of majority’s sake they would rather think of their selfish decisions.

hypocrisy is a piece of crap: We are much more than what you think

Girls are much more than what they seem. They’re more than just the makeup, the clothes, the shoes, the bags, the sunglasses, the outside. They’re more than just whiny bitches. We’re so much more. Too bad some boys can’t understand. A girl’s life is a bitch itself. On a daily basis we deal with…

I was trying to experiment with myself by waxing my legs independently. Oh well, it didn’t turned out well. Looks like I need to schedule a “real" wax session.

My Mac Book power adapter is broken. Thanks to my sister and who ever might have been the reason why its broken. My Mac Book has been my ultimate companion when I was in college doing my thesis.

I called Power Mac Service Center to inquire if there are still remedies in fixing it. They suggested me to buy a brand new adapter instead. I have to before its obsolete :(

I'm So Mad About Acoustics!

I usually ignore my iPod, well I even gave my iPod to my brother. But lately, I’ve been into music these past few weeks. My earphone is my ultimate get away companion from annoying noises in the office. I love listening to RnB and Blues. I’m not a fan of loud and disturbing music; I’d rather listen to Canon Pachelbel. I have over 100 songs plus under my Blues playlist, composed of Boyz II Men and other old school songs.

And here goes my OPM acoustics. I came across to it last week in the music store. Since I can’t download songs from limewire, I was forced to buy one. And now I began to have my obsession to OPM acoustic renditions of latest and old music.
