Cetified Anoop Trooper!

 I've been checking out everything about Anoop Desai for the past 3 hours and I am really a fan of this guy. If you're watching American Idol Season 8, then you should've seen how good he really is. I can't wait to see him perform tonight. So, please watch American Idol later at Star World at 6:00 PM. 

By the way, here's a video of Anoop with his group (the UNC Clef Hangers) covering Brian McKnight's The Only One For Me. I wish the video was better but the audio can't lie. This guy is amazing. He has a great voice. Plus, he's hot in a geeky sort of way.

Boyce Avenue in Manila

When my sister told me last week that Boyce Avenue is going to perform here in Manila, I became ecstatic. See, I am in love with this band and I think that they are one of the many "undiscovered greats". 

Anyway, last Friday, I came to see them in MOA and sadly, we didn't get good seats because we arrived at around 6 PM. We didn't get to buy the first 100 CDs which I think entitles the buyer to a good seat plus a meet and greet. It sucked really because I had a lot of stuff with me and there were a lot of people there. 

My sister and I together with her um, suitor were waiting for the band and we didn't have horrible 'seats'. It was relatively close to the stage. 

Joem, Kamille, Me

 

Alejandro Manzano

Daniel Manzano

They sang all of my favorite songs. They looked great and they sound even better. Everybody, especially those who knew about them already, were going crazy everytime they sing their songs. My favorites were Bleeding Love, Sweetest Girl, Wonderwall, Change Your Mind, All The While, Hear Me Now, Find Me. 

I hope that they do another concert here - in a much bigger venue. I will pay. 

Roger and Rafa: Definitely Not Over

Last night's Australian Open Men's Singles Championship left me dumbfounded and amazed. It was the match that everybody was waiting for. I was praying that Roger and Rafa are going to meet at the finals but the way things ended was definitely not the one I had in mind.

Rafael Nadal, the world's top seed, bested his tennis rival, world no. 2 Roger Federer in the hard court of Melbourne. Rafa was just unstoppable in spite of the additional 24 hours lead time that Roger had. The Spanish warrior just keeps on making impossible shots but, Roger also showed great tennis during the second and fourth set which, he won. Rafa was just faster, and a better tennis player last night.

As I watch the re-runs right now, I am still hoping that somehow, the ending would just be different. I love Roger and it sucks that he lost. The Swiss gentleman just wasn't his perfect self last night. He's got a lot of errors. There were a lot of double faults. His service wasn't great although, he managed to pull off around 8 aces. But despite Roger's best efforts, Rafa's fire keeps on getting hotter. 

During the awarding ceremony, Roger couldn't contain himself and began sobbing. It definitely hurt. First, the Wimbledon and now, Australia? It definitely hurts. I feel for him and I cried with him last night. "God, it's killing me," says Roger as he takes the stage to address the crowd. The feeling of defeat just overwhelmed him but being the champion and the fighter that he is, it seems that this was just a setback that I am sure he could come out of. "See you next year!"

We will see you again Roger! We will see you back on top!

During the whole match, I can't help but think of Rafa as a school bully who keeps on grabbing the ice cream of the nerdy kid - Roger. The nerdy kid tries to destroy the bully but he just can't. Not in 'highschool', but maybe in college. Maybe in the next major grand slam, Roger can redeem himself. I believe that he could. I believe that Roger could turn back the tables to the way it should be - with him on top. 

We will see you again Roger! We will see you back on top!

---

This is definitely not the last time that the Spanish warrior and the Swiss gentleman will see each other in the finals. The French Open is the perfect place for redemption. I hope that Rafa and Roger will see each other in the French Open and Roger breaks Rafa's reign as King of the Clay. 

Running

Finally, I was able to do what I've been procrastinating for, for days. I was able to wake up at 5:30 in the morning and I was able to jog - well, not really jog - power walk at CCP. 

Yaya and I walked from the house to CCP. That took about 7 songs. When we reach the CCP, I started treading the uphill route. It was really difficult and I wasn't even running. I was just walking. 

I just hope I could do better next time.

Glory to GOD!

Yesterday was my initial exam in St. Luke's Medical Center. My chances of passing the exam seem to be grim since two of my friends who took the exam failed the test. But, of course, I was keeping my hopes up and I believe that I have the chance to make it. 

The day before I said to myself that I would wake up at 7:00 AM so, I have ample time to prepare and I have more than sufficient time for travel. But being the slacker that I am, I came to SLMC, 15 minutes late. Good thing though, it really didn't matter. I was able to take the exam.

The test was a mental ability exam. There were 57 items and we were only given 15 minutes. The first part of the exam was sort of easy but the second part was difficult. Actually, it really wasn't difficult but maybe if there was another 15 minutes, I would have answered everything. Or maybe not. 

I was pretty confident during that time. I wasn't confident with myself but I took comfort in the fact that whatever happens, I know that its part of God's amazing plans for me. 

After we took the exam, the HR proctor left us inside the room because he had to check our papers somewhere else. When he returned, he called three names. He called this guy, then this girl, and he called my name. When I heard him call my name, I was really anxious to find out whether the three of us passed. And we did. The good LORD let me pass. 

Thank you GOD! Thank you SO much for this blessing.

One thing I learned from this whole experience is that the LORD knows what he's doing. In spite of everything being shady and grim at the beginning of my day (me being late, the thought of my friends who were unsuccessful in the initial exam), the LORD turned everything for the better. He's such a good GOD. Thank you LORD!

This victory is not mine but is yours.

2008 Year-End Rundown of Questions

What did you do in 2008 that you'd never done before?
I really can't think of anything. I just realized I didn't do anything new and exciting. That's not cool. Oh, well. Oops. I just realized just now, 8:59 PM, that I did something new. I've tried online business. I baked this year. I baked from scratch. I made my own money (from the garage sale) and spent it all. 

Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
Surprisingly, I have kept some of my New Year's resolutions. I'm currently looking at my planner (the 2008 Belle De Jour Planner) and I am really thankful that I was able to achieve some of it. 

Here are the goals that I've set for myself:

Have a job as a nurse/Be a nurse at SLMC, MedCity, etc. - Not YET done! Finding a job as a nurse is quite daunting. But, I have faith that I will find one this new year.

Help in paying the utilities - Since I don't have a job and I got turned down in People Support (because I wasn't accepting a salary lower than Php 16,00), I really can't help in paying the utilities. 

Be a Board Top Notcher - I am not a topnotcher but I DID PASS the Philippine Nursing Licensure Examination which is an amazing feat itself. I was really ecstatic when my cousin called me to say that we passed the exam. I am now a registered nurse of the Philippines! Woohoo...

Pass the NCLEX, CGFNS, IELTS, TOEFL - Gosh! Processing my papers would take at least 9 months. So, I believe that by the end of this year, I will be able to pass the NCLEX, CGFNS, and IELTS. 

Read books - Well, I didn't read the books that I wrote here but I read books this year which is better than what I did last year. I read Alan Corey's Millionaire by Thirty, Bill Clinton's Giving, James Patterson's Along Came a Spider, and 13 Chapters of Stephenie Meyer's Twilight. The best book among the four for me is the one by Alan Corey. I suggest that you go buy and read it.

Read the BIBLE everyday - I thank GOD for letting me read the whole Bible. Well, by tomorrow I would only be around 10-15 chapters short. I failed to read my Bible selections during our Liliw immersion. But, I am really happy that I got to read about 95% of the Bible. I feel truly blessed. And, it really was a blessing. God's Word came at the right time. He really knows what I'm going through and I feel his guidance. Thanks talaga kay LORD!

Exercise, Lose at least 4lbs/month, Stop impulsive eating - I was faithful to these for about 5 months and then I fell from the wagon. Very Oprah! Haha. I even lost 20 lbs during my 5 months of faithful exercise, and mindful eating. Even though, I'm back to my original weight I am not that hard on myself. I actually feel a bit better because I realized that I could do it. If I had done it for 5 months, I could surely do it again but this time, I will not gain the weight back! I really have faith in myself and with GOD. 

Have a semi-annual check-up - I only did this once. So, maybe... It's a half-done resolution.

Save at least Php 4,000 a month - I wasn't able to do this. Too bad. But, at least my new account is still active. And right now, I have Php 4,000 in my bank. Hehe. I read or heard somewhere that in order to be great, one must have a horrible start (or something to that effect). Php 4,000 will become Php 40,000,000. I know I could do it. 

Stop cursing, Stop using the words b!tch, f^ck, Sh!t - I did not fare well on this resolution. I really have to watch my mouth more this coming year.

Did anyone close to you give birth?
Yes. My friend Shyn and her hubby Boo gave birth to a super cute baby girl named Raziella Therese a.k.a. Tetet. She's my inaanak and I am a very terrible godmother. I promise I will make-up for it on her 1st birthday next year. Promise!

What was the best thing you bought?
The best thing I bought was Alan Corey's book.

Whose behavior merited celebration?
Hmm... Behavior that merited celebration. I'd like to say that my behavior is qualified but aside from me, I would have to say Alvi. She knows the reason why.

Womanizer by Britney Spears, If I Were a Boy and Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It) by Beyonce, Lucky by Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat, Superhuman by Chris Brown and Keri Hilson, Love Story and White Horse by Taylor Swift, Ever Ever After by Carrie Underwood, So Close by Jon McLaughlin.

Nothing really special. I turned 20. Gosh. I can't even remember what I did on my birthday. I am really spaced out. What the hell did I do on my birthday?

If there's a thing that would've made my year more satisfying, that would probably be the new generation of MacBook Pro.

How would you describe your personal fashion concept in 2008?

If it's nice, if it fits, then, go! Or, if its black and spandex, then, I'm good! Hehe. :))

What kept you sane?
My friends. The Bible. And, most especially, my sister.

Which celebrity/public figure did you fancy the most?
Hmm... Definitely, Robert Downey Jr. and Patrick Dempsey (not because of Grey's but because of Enchanted).

What political issue stirred you the most?
Hmm... Nothing really. But, the political issue that made me feel great was Barrack Obama winning. Its not only a success by the American people its an achievement by the human race as a people. It made me believe that nothing is impossible.

Who did you miss?
My mom.

Who was the best new person you met?
Hmm... I didn't meet a lot of people this year. Maybe the people who bought some of my merchandise. Hehe.

The most touching experience you've had this year?

Finally, Someone born on March 1

Jensen Ackles and I were born on March 1! I am always wondering who has the same birth day as I do. Finally, my favorite Supernatural brother was born on March 1. Although he was born 10 years earlier. He was born March 1, 1978 and I was born March 1, 1988. This information is so refreshing for me. Hehe! :))

Kaye is High-Maintenance

My friend Bnong once said to me that my future boyfriend is going to have a hard time keeping me happy because I am high-maintenance. I protested and said that I wasn't high-maintenance. Paris Hilton is high-maintenance but not me. And now, I'm doubting what I said before. Maybe Bnong was right. Maybe I am high-maintenance. 

Taylor Swift

With my current state of unemployment and laziness, I have been spending my time listening to lots of songs and watching to lots of television.

Now, the artist who's been playing on my iPod constantly is Taylor Swift. She has really good songs. If you are into country music, I think that you'd really enjoy listening to her. Here are my top two favorite songs from her.



I think that that song, Love Story, is part of her Fearless album which I think will be released on the 11th of November. You could pre-order in Amazon.com. Or you could just simply wait until November 11.

Another song from her self-titled album that I really love is Teardrops on my Guitar. The guy in the music video is Tyler Hilton. He's the same guy on One Tree Hill's soundtrack. He sang the song When the Stars Go Blue with Bethany Joy Lenz (a.k.a. Haley). I hope that you do enjoy this music video.

McSwimmy

I was watching last night's episode of E! this morning and I came across this video. This is just hilarious.

Gelatone

I am really digging this new found gem on Greenbelt. Its called Gelatone. A small place located at the 2nd floor of Greenbelt 3, near Music One. They serve Italian favorites like penne, spaghetti, panini but I believe that their gelatos are the hot things sold in their store.

There are several flavors you could choose from. I bought the 500 grams to share with the folks here at home. I chose three flavors - strawberry, mascarpone, vanilla with chocolate. I love gelato! It really is better tasting than ice cream. Its more creamy and more flavorful with less fat, less sugar, less air. This means that you get more from your money. I love it.

From the three that I bought, I'd have to say that my favorite is strawberry. I am a berry person. Blueberries, strawberries. I really love it.

Could you tell? I love the gelato.

What? Laarni Won?

All I could say is that the people really got it wrong. Its like Big Brother Teen Edition 2 once again. Bugoy should've won just like Robi should've won. Argh. I find this totally unacceptable. Really. Anyway, Bugoy will do even better just like Christian Bautista did better than Erik Santos.

Attract Happiness

I am making a conscious decision to think positive. I want to think positively so that positive things will happen to me. I somehow got it now. When I burden myself with negative things, my mind and heart is so burdened by it I really become an unpleasant person. When things irritate me and I retaliate with a bad attitude, my day gets ruined.

From now on, I will let all negativity slide. At least, I will try.

Come to me. Improved attitude, come to me. Great family, come to me. Healthy life, come to me. Money, come to me. Great job, come to me. Happiness, come to me.

Where To?

A quick one. In 10 - 15 years, I should have traveled in the following places: 

1. New York, USA
   
2. Las Vegas, USA
   
3. Boston, USA
   
4. Paris, France
   
5. England
   
6. South Korea
   
7. Hawaii
   
8. Amanpulo, Palawan
   
9. Cebu, Philippines
   
10. Camiguin, Philippines
    

I would really love to go there. I really would. 

DVD Torture

Imagine yourself in a place where everything you want is right within your reach and you can't have anything of it. 

I was tortured yesterday. Music One in Greenbelt was having a great sale. Original DVDs were being sold at half the price! Being the movie buff that I am, I was totally cringing over the fact that I couldn't buy any of it because I am trying to save money. But, darn! The Friends DVD Set was only 500 which used to be 1200. Imagine? It was terrible. If I had the money, I could've bought just about everything there. IF I had the money.

Argh...

Rain, Rain...

I remember during highschool, asian series took over the crown of the most watched shows from the mexican telenovelas. The arrival of Meteor Garden signaled the dawn of the new kind of entertainment. Of course, I am one of those people who went gaga over the boy group F4. I am one of those people who got 'kilig' over the love team of San Chai and Dao Ming Si. Meteor Garden pretty much elevated the standards of making Filipinos 'kilig'. They raised the bar high... Until Full House reached my screen.

Full House was shown on the Philippine television just about the same as Meteor Garden. I wasn't really paying a lot of attention to it then, because I was focused on another Korean drama. It really doesn't matter that I haven't seen it before. I am just so happy that I got to see it now. 

Full House is such an amazing series. I really love it. I am totally going crazy. The last time that my 'fanaticism' (Is that even a word?) reached this level was during the Meteor Garden days. More than the story, I am really drawn to the characters in the drama. I find myself smiling over the thought of Young Jae's arrogant behavior. He is so endearing. I actually don't know whether who of the two I find endearing Young Jae or Rain. Does it matter, really? 

I think I fancy Rain. I'm smitten. Really, really smitten. I can't even begin to describe it. 

Rain... Rain... Never go away...

Okay, I think I'm going to puke with what I just said. I am ridiculous. 

Because of this new found interest, I think I am going to learn Korean. And study what I can about Korean. I am going nuts!

Hay... Rain. 

What They Call Life: The Past, The Present, The Future

I just couldn't contain my excitement when I saw my highschool friend, Miguel, playing in Game Ka Na Ba. I love it. Its so refreshing to see someone from your 'past' (past here, doesn't pertain in anyway to any romantic relationship) and its even better to see them on tv. Hehe. Miguel lost some weight, huh. Ang taray! And, he graduated Magna Cum Laude at the Ateneo de Manila University. I love it. There's no doubt in my mind that he would graduate with honors in college. I love it talaga!

Makasali nga sa Game Ka Na Ba.

I just printed over 100 pages of PDF files regarding my CGFNS and NCLEX application. Gosh! I never thought that right after passing the Local Nursing Licensure Examinations, I would find myself bombarded by a juggernaut of things to do. At the moment, I have finished browsing all of them and it seems like I've got mountains of stuff to do and a whole lot of money to spend. Oh, well I believe that everything will work out well.

Yesterday, my sister and I went to Greenbelt to attend the church service and to purchase some stuff that we need. Anyway, after the mass, some of the church volunteers handed out envelopes to fund churches that need help. Then, suddenly out of nowhere some lady blurted out something to this effect, "Di nga ako binibiyayaan, bakit ako magbibigay?" (Please note that these were not her exact words. But it sure sounded like that.) My sister and I were startled. We both were saying, "Omigosh!" I was really shocked not by the thought that she didn't give any donation but by the fact that she was so cynical. Maybe she has a lot of problems right now. I pray that GOD show her the many blessings in her life. May she realize that she is a blessing to somebody and may she realize that GOD has blessed her in so many ways.

LORD, I thank you for the blessings that you have given me.

Tong-Pats, MERALCO,VAT, Sisterhood

Ted Failon is one intelligent, and funny guy. He's one of the three news anchors of TV Patrol World. I listen to him every morning in his radio show with Korina Sanchez - the news commentary program, Tambalang Failon at Sanchez. In that radio show, Ted and Korina sometimes use 'salitang kanto' and Filipino slang to make their show more appealling, less intimidating, more informative, and greatly satisfying. I think just now, he was caught off guard by what he just said. While reporting in TV Patrol World, it seems like he unconsciously made a mistake by using the word 'tong-pats' (patong, or bribe). I think it was really funny.

Anyway, what's up with this MERALCO issue? I really hate that GSIS is meddling with the affairs of a private company. GSIS has a lot of trash and whatnots to fix in their own backyard and they want to fix MERALCO's problems? I think that that is just stupid. Winston Garcia is a greedy businessman who has way too much regard for his self. As much as I would like to hate the Lopezes for sort of monopolizing businesses, well, its a business. The best thing, I think, is to introduce new players to compete with MERALCO. The new ones could post competitive prices.

If I were the president of the Philippines, I would not remove the expanded Value Added Tax (eVAT) instead, I would allot the money that I gained to increase the salaries of the teachers, nurses. I would also provide for additional rooms, equipment, personnel, etc. in government hospitals, as well as government schools. The money that the government gained from the issuance of eVAT amounts to billions of pesos. The government is so stupid to give a 'stipend' kind of thing for the 'less fortunate'. You are teaching the people to rely on free stuff. You don't teach them how to be resilient, how to be resourceful. Giving them fish is not the answer. Let us teach them how to fish.

Anyway, I am looking forward to the sequel of the ultimate chick flick, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. I feel like I am most like Alexis Bledel although, I am more of America Ferrera's size. Hehe. I hope to watch this with my close girl friends namely, Rocie, Ste, Iris, Beth, Aica.
