I just got home from shopping. Well, not the kind of shopping that Carrie Bradshaw does. Shopping, as in scouting for clothes that I'd wear for the holidays, going to National Bookstore, buying some books from the C&E Bookshop. Well, actually, I may have gone shopping like Carrie because I've spent over 8,000 bucks today for all those things. And, I am not done yet with my shopping list. Unlike Carrie who buys shoes and clothes, I shop for books and more books and a little clothing on the side.

I can't believe that in a span of 4 hours, a person could spend so much. Argh... I wish I had more money.

My mom sort of hired me to be her personal shopper. She has this birthday she had to attend to this November and she wanted a top. Since, clothing are expensive abroad, she thinks that she could get more from her money by letting me buy clothes for her here in the Philippines. I think that her idea is great especially now that I am on a break from school stuff. See, the problem is she has no definite idea on what she would like to wear. She is also torn on whether she would rather buy a top or she would have it made just for her.

I went to look for the perfect top for her. I was thinking that she should have a metallic blue green baby doll top then she should have an obi tied aroud her waist. Then, she could pair it off with her most flattering pants. I was also thinking that since its winter, she could go for a more wintery clothing. Like, a baby pink shirt or a purple shirt then with a white knit coat and a funky belt. My mom... she likes to feel young.

So, I was in Glorietta. I went to Marks & Spencer and saw very promising pieces for my mom and me... Oh, and by the way, I bought two cute undies from M&S. I like them a lot. They're pink. Anyway, the problem with M&S is that they are uber expensive. They carry clothes that have my size and are super cute and are uber expensive, as well. Argh...

Times like these make me wish that I won the lottery so I could literally shop till I drop.

I also went to several shops - Cinderella, U2, Sari-Sari, etc. They showed nice clothes but, I am not quite sure whether they are the ones that my mom would approve. And besides, she has not given me any money to fund this clothing churva. Money down muna!

I am becoming kikay. As in! Super! I have outgrown my Candy days and I am now a certified Preview, Mega, and InStyle femme. Love it! Ito na ba ang epekto ng panonood ng America's next Top Model at ng Project Runway...

Oh, and by the way, sabi ni Rocel maganda daw ang One Tree HIll. Now, I am torned. Which is which ba talaga? Original Friends DVD Season 1 or One Tree Hill Season 1 Pirated?

Omigosh, I can't believe it. I am visiting Beauty Bar and checking out DuWop's products. Gosh. They are so expensive... And, by any chance, does anybody know where I could buy L'oreal Vive Pro? My hair is so unruly... I always have a bad hair day...

I am becoming one of them. I was dreading this. I don't want to be like them. Or, does every girl come to a point and become one? Then, after this crossroad, she discovers her true self and settle for that true, found self. I hope I find my true self. Stat!

I've seen the first season of Prison Break. And, I've finished watching the whole Sex and the City series. And, boy were they great!

I love Sex and the City. I love the four girls - Carrie, Miranda, Samantha, Charlotte. I'd like to think that I find something in them that is very much like me. I love Carrie. I love the way Carrie writes. Its very candid. Love 'em all. Too bad they had to end it. I swear they could have survived 10 seasons. The writing is very smart. They are funny. Not only that, they also make you think about your life, relationships, friendships, etc.

My favorite episode in the show was when Smith Jerrod (Jason Lewis) was shut out by Samantha Jones (Kim Cattrall) in a party. Samantha joined her ex-beau, Richard and went up to his hotel room and had sex. Samantha didn't enjoy the sex and she went down the elevator feeling really down. When the elevator door opened, Smith was still there. He said something like this, "I'd like to make sure that you get to your home safe."

Ahww... That is definitely sweet.

Most of my favorite kilig scenes are the scenes Samantha and Smith had.

There's this another episode that I really enjoyed. Its the episode where Samantha and Smith were walking on the sidewalk. And then, Smith was reaching for Samantha's hand. But, the cynic in Samantha refused to hold Smith's hand which caused her to fall flat on her butt. By the end of the episode, Smith couldn't take that Samantha is so... so... weird about holding hands so, he said something like this, "Samantha, stop that effing shit and just let me hold your hand."

Here's the recap of that episode from the HBO site:

Smith and Samantha's relationship hits an odd plateau when the actor tries to take Sam's hand as they're walking down the street. Samantha is so eager to refrain from the PDA that she actually trips and falls down an open hatch on the sidewalk. Smith isn't having any of this, telling Samantha in no uncertain terms that he loves her, and wants to be able to express his feelings. Samantha grudingly accepts, realizing that maybe a little hand-holding isn't so bad after all.

Ahww... Samantha has a great guy with him! Hay... Kaloka...

Then, another episode that really touched me was when Smith decided to shave his gorgeous hair for Samantha. The gal was diagnosed with cancer and the hair loss was bothering her (y'know because of chemo). So, she decided to liberate herself from that effing emotional burden of cancer and decided to shave her hair. Smith found her in the bathroom and decided to shave his hair so that Samantha wouldn't feel bad about losing her hair. Samantha said, "Your hair is your thing..." But, Smith dismissed Samantha's comment and shaved his hair. This is episode 90 entitled Out of the Frying Pan.

Ahww... Super duper sweet!

I love him na!

I love the love story of Smith and Samantha! Its even better than what Carrie and Big had. Hay, super romantic!

Prison Break naman...

I love Wentworth Miller. The concept of the series is sort of new. Its a break to all the medical stuff I've been seeing. Its an Alias kind of show with a bit of 24. And, Michael Scoffield (Wentworth's character) is not the usual CIA agent, doctor, attorney. He is a Structural Engineer turned Prisoner. Hay... Gorgeous!

The show's pacing sometimes bores me but, with Wentworth Miller on the screen - it's hard not to watch. Actually, the show itself is only a 75% for me but, I really like Wentworth Miller!I really find the government controversy in the series a bit of confusing. I also find some characters irritating and I think some characters are not really needed. I think that the casting is poor except for the prisoners and of course, Wentworth Miller.

I love saying his name. Wentworth MIller.

I am pissed because I haven't seen any episode of The Amazing Race 10. Oh, well. I am more excited about the Asia version of The Amazing Race. Not because Aubrey Miles is there but because I think Allan Wu is so gorgeous. Haha... And, because another Filipino team is there.

It is technically sem break but, my sem break doesn't start until I finish the grand case presentation revision. I hope to finish it by tomorrow. I have a lot of things that I want to do this break. I want to have a lot of sleep and rest. I need it badly. I terribly need it. Argh...

I want to learn tennis. I want to learn how to play the guitar...

This is my best take on bisaya...

LORD, daghang salamat kaayo kay na-pass ko gid ang aku-ang mga concepts sa nursing. Salamat gyud...

I really meant what I said. But, I sound blah...

Hehe...

Thanks and praise be to GOD talaga. Akala ko talaga ay mag-reremovals ako. Salamat talaga.

Naranasan niyo na ba yung panahon... yung panahon na talagang nasasaktan ka na... yung panahon na talagang damang-dama mo na sobra-sobra na lahat yung problema mo... yung panahon na gustung-gusto mo ng ma-iyak... pero, hindi ka maiyak?

Pinipilit mo yung sarili mo na maiyak. Umaarte ka. Nag-fifeeling ka na artista at pinipilit mong lumuha. May tumulo nga pero peke naman. Hindi siya tunay na mga luha. Yun yung mga iyak na hininog sa pilit. Yun yung mga iyak na hindi ka maka-konek.

Ang hirap kapag hindi ka maka-iyak. Mahirap talaga. Lalo na kapag ganyan at parang sasabog na yung puso mo sa samu't-saring lebel ng emosyon. Galit. Inis. Pagkabigo. Sakit. Pagkamuhi. Pagka-pagod. Pagsasawa. Basta! Yung mga masasakit na emosyon. Yung mga nakakaiyak dapat.

Ang dami kong nararamdaman ngayon. Madami talaga. Iba-iba. Sari-sari. Different, sa ingles. Di ko alam kung saan ako magsisimula.

Hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin ako maka-iyak. Bwisit!

Milenyo is a good for nothing typhoon. Without power, how am I supposed to finish the things that I should be doing? And, you've caused a lot of damaged homes, fallen trees, broken dreams. Ang daming casualties. Pweh!

So, ngayon, mag-ccram na naman ako dahil ngayon lang kami nagka-ilaw. Hay naku!

Kaasar!
