Chix & Tell

I've always fancied wearing tattered jeans. Always.  I think its cool and young!(read: Pugong sa edad).  I've been silently checking some of 'em distressed pairs at the malls too. Took mah time appreciating the stuff, running mah fingers on the loosened edges or the lacy underlines before taking a peek at the price tags ...and scurrying far from it because of the dollars ringing (in uder words: MAHAL!) But, because of this uber urge to jump into my own tat, I went on scavenging over what little rubbish I got and viola! Got meself a good candidate: my old pair of BNY jeans. Come to mama, baby. We're gonna do some ripping! So here now is the transformation of a jeannie: You're gonna need some ARMS!   I used a cutter and a pusher to help me loosen the threads. But you can also use a pair of scissors to a cut a hole in your jeans. You're also going to need some stuff to thin the spot. Got myself a sandpaper for this. You can also grab a steel wool or a pumi...

Realization suddenly struck me.  Oooops! Am I surrounded with red stuff  or I am surrounded with red stuff?  Teehee! Iam! Iam! Maria Mercedes lang ang peg neto....from my bag to my wallet to my call cards! Addict lang?! I dunno why RED always turns me on. It doesn't fail to seduce me!  Red is the color of Blood, of Rubies and of Strawberries..things I am not very much fond of. Red is commonly associated with Danger. Anger. Fire. But that's far from being me. Red is also Love. Red is Luck and Happiness. Red is Christmas! Red is me! But why on earth am I flooding this page with RED? No idea! Hahahah! I just feel like doing so!

Mga pedeng gawin pag inatake ka Ng matinding pagka-antok sa oras ng trabaho: Magkape ka. Hmmmm....isang tasa ng mainit na kape: Pampagising! Di umubra? Re-arrange your files! Gawin mong Z-A ang files mo. Tapos ka na pero antok pa rin? Kurutin mo ang sarili mo! Masakit? Maghanap ka ng isang box ng tutpick. No , hindi para itukod sa mata mo....bilangin mo! Wala kayong tutpik? Kunin mo ang mop at walis. Maglinis ka ng opisina niyo!                                                          Hohummm!...Ewan ko sa'yo, INAANTOK na rin ako! Kaya nga kung anu-ano na lang sinusulat ko ngayon para labanan ang pagka-antok ko e! Hay Ambot! Ano ba naman itong relo, antagal mag-trabaho. Kelan pa ba mag-a-alas-singko, ng maka-uwi na tayo!

Dunno how it all started. All I know is that one day, curiosity rose 20 ft. above sea level when I saw people posting old pics, baby pics, sepia pics on a thursday and hashtags #tbt, #throwbackthurdays came flooding the walls. Took me some time to ride the train but here I am, nakiki-throwback thursday na rin! Before (above) and After (below) Pic of my Family.  The beach photo was taken errr,11 years ago.  The studio one was like taken last year (2012) And there are supposed to be "rules" for TBT!  Aha! Make sure you qualify folks! Hahaha! Here's my first ever #TBT post which , surprisingly earned  more than a hundred likes! Ganahan pud ta! Well, and this was taken 10 years back. So it did pass the TBT requirements. Teehee! “Throwback Thursday”  is an Internet  theme day  observed every Thursday during which people share an old photograph of themselves via social networking sites and image-sharing co...

Well what do you know?!  It's half way past the month of October! I have barely felt September pass by and here you go, Octie,  about to bid us goodbye, as well! I say , October has been terrific so far! For one thing,it's my birthday month,  and its my son's and daughter's birthday month , too.  Talk about celebrating good times , huh! Well here are more reasons why the 10th month of 2013  spells Octoberific: The "Share Happiness" campaign video of my BOIS students was included in the happiness campaign segment of the Kapuso Mo , Jessica Sojo Show. Nothing beats the  feeling of being able to touch other people's lives.  Metal Empire reigned supreme in this year's Festival X Battle Royale. Despite being faced with "emotional" challenges among our members, metals showed malleability!Back to back Champions. Proud Momma to these kiddos. Its a working birthday for moi! Stressed out to the maximum level I m...

Oh Hello there, September! M y brain is exceptionally hardworking today. Lemme see, it's up for recalling and recording the past events I've been busy with when your cold september breeze kissed me on the cheek. September 6 - opened up the new store of Shakey's Pizza Parlor in town. SPP is now conveniently located at the Al Fresco Strip of SM City General Santos. It greets you a with totaly new concept: a westernized feel, but offers you with the same mouthwatering choices of pizza, chicken, mojos and more! September 7 - soared high with the other DARNA 's in GBG Gensan 's Si Darna at Si Narda sa Makabagong Panahon Women Event : "Ding ang bato!"  Spent one empowering day with lady generals at the Vancouver Hall of Sydney Hotel with a bonus treat of "Juana Change the movie" and with the real "Juana", Mae Paner herself sitting just half a meter away from me. September 8- I've put on my shorts and my new pink ...

I wish I could paint A rainbow in the sky Bring splash of colors To the gloomy outdoors. I wish I could play A happy melody And bring harmony As well as blissful memory. I wish I could sing Like a bird in the spring And touch a soul Who will forever glow. I wish I could shower Raindrops to the flowers Let the mist cover All the four-leaf clover. I wish I had A fairy's wand For it's your wish I want to grant.

photo from google image There she stands Mighty and proud. In the crowd, She just would stand out. Admiration she would be earning Without even trying. There she stands Pricked by her thorns. Ignore so hard she tried The pain that burns inside. The sap flowed freely As she was pierced deeply. The cactus wept. The sap ran endlessly. And then it dried suddenly And crystallized before her eyes. I was mesmerized By the beauty she remained to epitomize.
