Friday Movie

I have no friends to disturb after a long day of work in office, most of them were all rushing for Christmas shopping and busy preparing as most of us will be back home (Philippines) in the next few days. My local friends were also out of reach (suddenly), so I decided to make a quick walk at the nearby shopping mall and check out what I can get for myself. Unfortunately, none of the display catches my attention.

It was a boring Friday night turned into entertaining one as I watched Bolt. It was a no non-sense movie, in fact, I was laughing out loud even if I was alone. Well, I really don't like Miley Cirus, but I still enjoyed watching this heartful movie. It was filled with heart, inspiration, getting real and many other righteousness that is not only for young people but also for those young at heart.

When I reached home at about 11:30PM, my sweetest friend brought me sweets from Hyatt. Ang ending ng gabi ko ...... kain ng asukal, and yet, sobrang sarap.

Smile when your heart is aching

The moon shines over the Taj Mahal hotel in Mumbai, India, Monday, Dec. 1, 2008. Soldiers removed the remaining bodies from the shattered Taj Mahal hotel on Monday, searching each room in the labyrinthine building and defusing booby-traps and bombs left by the gunmen who killed 172 people during three days of terror.

The planets Venus, top left, and Jupiter, top right, came in close proximity with the moon as seen from Earth Monday. In reality, Venus is almost 100 million miles way and Jupiter nearly 550 million miles from our planet. The moon is 252,000 miles away. The exact combination of planets and the moon in the right place to appear together, even when they aren't high enough in the evening sky to be appreciated, won't happen again until 2052.

I was wondering what was the message of this happy sky when it appeared to human after our very eyes . Surely, none of the angels from heaven will smile while looking at the gunmen in Mumbai as they teared someone's life in seconds. But who knows, maybe the heaven wants us to keep on smiling even in times of tears.

Hari Raya - Announcement

Yehey! I say! Holiday na naman sa Singapore sa December 8, and I just got the mail announcement from my HR.

This coming weekend, I have few Christmas parties to attend to. Those alone were already sending me to holiday mood, plus this holiday na wala namang kinalaman sa buhay ko ... perfect!

Bills Bills Bills ..... and many more bills

I settled so many bills today, I had a thought that it will give me more problems if I won't settle my bills earliest as I need to budget te more this month. Having a credit card is like "enjoy now, pay later" bonanza. And this is what happening to most of us. I enjoyed Avenue Q, Rihanna's concert, shopping here and there, eat anything and anywhere .... then here comes the bill after few weeks. Whew! I always get a schock everytime I open my credit card statement. And considering that I am holding 5 different credit cards, huhuhuhu! When it will end? WHen? When? Of course, I know it will never stop. I work, I play, I pay ... And that is how it goes. So am I complaining?

Wait Ray, before you complain ... check the paper bag you brought home. Goodness gracious me, CK was on sale just now and I really can't leave the place without purchasing that gorgeous shirt .... my friend bought 3 and so did I :) Matagal ko na din namang iniisnab-isnab ang shirt na to, pero ngayon, oras na para mapasa akin sya.

I took time to finished all the things I need to settle for this week, that includes buying stuff for the three Christmas parties I will be attending. Ang hindi ko maintindihan sa mga kaibigan ko, lagi na lang gastos ang alam. And with all the budget on each exchange gift, I settled for perfume for each party. At least I considered it the safest, and good thing cos puro lalaki ang nabunot ko, mas madaling mamili ng regalo.

December is here

I am enjoying the countdown to Christmas ... as of today, there are only 24 days to go before the big day. And 19 more days to go before my flight back home. During my lunch break, while I was waiting for the next available table, I got to call my sister cos I have been chasing her for the past two days. I asked for some stuff and if I can find 'em in the Philippines, and etc etc.

As the countdown to Christmas gets louder and louder each day, I have here some of the beautiful spots in Singapore where they showcase a marvelous image of how Christmas should be like.
