arrivederci, anoop desai...

since the start of american idol season 8, i've had two bets to make it to top12...one of them was this indian-american guy from chapel hill, north carolina who made a twist in the show's history to bring them to top 13...

from his audition in shorts and slippers up to his elimination last night and getting to top 6, he was one of those who swept me with his cool, amazing voice and his colorful personality...

i sincerely felt sad that he hasn't gone far to the finals...but then again, as what david archuleta said on his guesting in american idol last nyt, there is still life after idol with even greater opportunities in store...and i hope this guy would have that life after idol, eventually with his own album soon...

but for now, arrivederci anoop desai...

we only got 4 hours of sleep...but that didn't stop us to be hyper and happy yesterday, April 6, 2009...anyway, this doesn't happen often...this is just one of the moments that you'll keep remembering...

to my mom and dad, hats off and one big "CONGRATULATIONS"!!!!...deep inside i know there is overflowing happiness and pride that you have finally made two daughters finish a degree...

to my dear sister,,,CONGRATULATIONS for being the Adamson Falcon who soared to the finish and GOOD LUCK as you embark on what lies ahead...


from your one and only sister who will not stop believing that things in life will always get better no matter how many times we fall...

a few hours is better than never....

the hours of standing up that led to a stiff neck, leg and arm pains were worth it...

it was certainly better than never settling for the pain to see the Eraserheads Live: The Final Set...

here's just one of the videos i took thru my cellphone...pls bear the noise on the backgrounds and the unstable screen due to the arm pains i've been having...

huling el bimbo...

to those who watched, kudos to us guys...a few hours of something new is better than to have never even tried...^_^

sweet weekend...

well we all know that valentine's day simply passed by just this weekend...and everyone seemed to be busy outdoors or in their couches at home to pass the time...

where was i during the weekend???

hmm...saturday was a supposed UP fair...but after our gym endeavors, me and two of my friends headed to eat, in this resto in Katipunan called..."Banapple" --- you could check their website for other info -- banapplekitchen.com



unfortunately, we were unable to eat some sweets...just a light-hearted sandwich for me...since it's abnormal for me to be a glutton at 11:00pm [which i'm usually into sleep already these days...^_^]




sunday...the day after valentine's...i was on next book assignment...so i headed to one of my favorite spots at the moment [thank God it's 15mins away from home...]



and after i bought a book and a dvd [which i'll soon care to post^_^]...i headed for my own sweet deal, at the only place i'll keep coming back at Boni High Street / Serendra area... Cupcakes by Sonja and had this very light treat^_^


hope u had your sweet weekend too...cause some good things don't last 'ayt???

flashback...

a month ago, we were able to watch "sleepless in seattle" on tv and since then, my mom has been raving on a particularly movie which was somewhat similar to it...

last night, she went home from a gathering and finally, she found that movie. incidentally, her orgmate in church lent her this dvd...



my mom kept saying that this film "an affair to remember" is somewhat similar to "sleepless in seattle" especially the fact that both movies had a scene where the lead stars were suppose to meet up at the Empire State Building...

in last sunday's paper, i saw this recent event at rockwell, wherein for the entire week, they'll be showing movies from one of my favorite personalities from the past, audrey hepburn...even if i'm not so much familiarized of this prominent actress since the 60's, i felt this connection with her by just looking at her pictures which started during my college days...and if i would have the chance over the weekend, i might be able to watch "roman holiday"....oooohhhh i do hope^_^


sometimes, it's really good that we look back of some good things that the past has to offer to us, given the chances to do so...well, i guess that means i'll really have to catch up on a lot of reading and watching...hmmm^_^

simply because of the weather...

after more than a week of getting busy and bum [mixed altogether^_^], i finally got to feel that it's definitely a new year already...

the cool atmosphere we're having since december is starting to drive me nuts...we might only be ranging from a lows of 20-23, still my body can't tolerate at times. wearing a jacket is the "in" thing at the moment, but thanks to my baby tees and sleeveless tops, the warmth can't be felt...SERIOUSLY!!!...i just pray that this wouldn't lead me to fevers [fingers crossed^_^]

well, what am i up to at the moment???...hmmm...

* got 2 granted from my wishlist...the "twilight" series and david archuleta's cd...weeee!!!
* just finished reading "new moon", and am heading to read "eclipse"...
* finished watching season 1 of gossip girl on dvd...[haha...delayed na...]
* catching up on friends thru the internet...
* having the LSS on david a's songs...haha
* will start getting hooked on the tube...as american idol season 8 starts...yey!!!!

and simply having fun, simply enjoying, simply getting to know^_^...despite and because of the weather^_^

Happy New Year^_^
