+ small world and then some +

mood:
music: Tsuki ni Makeinu (Loser to the Moon) - Shiina Ringo

I may die tomorrow,
so right now, I summon all my strength
If I could make myself understood...
I'd have no regrets.

I have now accepted the fact that this is indeed a small world. Imagine this, how would you react when one of the new employees is a batchmate of your boyfriend? And what's worse, his wife is your former highschool teacher.

Well, that's what happened to me. One of the new project-based employees in this company is a batch mate of Robert in Don Bosco, in highschool. Actually I didn't like talking to him before because I didn't like his name -- which is Mike. Reminds me of some other Mike who indeed is stupid and doesn't have any inkling of ethics in him. *heaves* Ehem.

Now back to the story. When it was lunch time, me and some other officemates, including Mike (my officemate) went out to eat in the underground food station in Ortigas. As it turns out, it was nice talking to him and another gamer in the office, wohoo!

Unfortunately, he smokes but not too much so we can still talk outside the building while he smokes. He then mentioned that he went to Don Bosco Makati when he was in highschool. I vaguely remember that Robert went to Don Bosco before but I didn't know which branch. So I chatted with Robert and asked him where in Don Bosco did he graduated from in highschool. He said it was Makati. Next, I asked him if he knew Mike Peralta. He said yes. O.O Wow. I asked Mike if he knew Robert unfortunately, he doesn't remember. --; But I believe they were batchmates that time.

So then after a few more days, someone asked what school did I entered when I was in secondary school. I said it was St. Scholastica's Academy Marikina. Mike was O.O and asked if I remember a teacher named Ms. Orendain (is this the right spelling? --;) I remember a teacher with that name but I don't remember her teaching me.

Mike asked his wife about me and his wife remember me (much to my amusement). His wife said that I was a dweeb / dork / nerd who plays kickball when I was in higschool. I have to agree with her since I knew I was a loner when I was in highschool who stays in library every lunch time everytime there is no practice in kickball.

Currently, I'm urging Mike to bring his wife here so I can refresh my memory -- and I do want him to meet Robert to refresh his memory as well *lol*

And yes, it's a small world -- after all.

~000~

When we were in Kero's place last Saturday, Manang said that she was stalking the RO boards when someone commented about the MTV Massive show. The poster had asked if the blonde who was in high wizard costume was a sister of Battlechaser (Kuya Paul). O.O ~.~ Can I safely conclude that we look alike to be mistaken as siblings? X.X

~000~

My move from Antipolo to Makati will be earlier than what I planned. Since Cathy will be travelling all over the Philippines with Thomas, I need to be there earlier than usual (and add the fact that I'm starting to hate the house ~.~)

So I might be moving to Makati by end of December.

+ GW +

mood:
music: About You - Ayumi Hamasaki

Where is the person
Who could get what he wanted
Without making any sacrifices
You see?
You have the thing which I long for
Which I had lost and will never get again
However strongly I wish for it

I would like you to meet, Noir Rien Valentine, my level 8 Necromancer/Monk in Guild Wars.

I'm not addicted to GW since I'm much more addicted to Katamari... --;

+ I CAN NOT BELIEVE IT +

mood:
music: Ai no Katamari - Katamary Damacy OST (Katamari Fortissimo Damacy)

LOVE. Connect with one another
Then our hearts will beat as one
TRY. We want to roll everything in
Then we can all be together
Don't stop, let the love flow
Then we will be together forever

Me and Robert won in a raffle... and got the grand prize. --;

Last night, since me and Robert are not doing anything, we accept the movie tickets that Arnold was giving away. It was a Premiere Movie of Deep Blue in Greenbelt 3. I got mixed up and thought the movie was Into the Blue starring Jessica Alba and expected 2-piece bikini women in the movie...

Err... Anyways... louie was one who responded with the invitation and of course Arnold and Joanne should be going as well. But with only 3 tickets, at first Louie backed out to give the tickets to Arnold and Joanne. Upon learning this, I told Robert that we should as well back out since the tickets were given to Arnold and it would be a shame if they didn't watch it.

And then I confirmed it with Arnold and told me thet he and Joanne will not be watching it anymore because Joanne are with her parents. So I called Robert telling him that we are going to watch the movie.

We got there about 8:30 pm, 30 mins late since the movie started at 8 pm. Robert got there at the same time we got there. I saw the tickets and I finally understood what the movie is all about -- a documentary about the sea and it's habitants. Actually I like watching those things and since Robert likes science, he would love watching it. *giggles*

We got inside, and found a sit and watched the movie which lasted about 1 1/2 hours. After watching the film, there was an emcee that said that there would be a raffle.

At first I saw 2 paper bags but I resigned myself that we are not going to win anything. I have bad luck when it comes to raffle and the first time I won was when I attended the Guild Wars event. I won a Ati Radeon 9250 video card that I am currenly selling x.x

After the 2 paperbags to be given away was given out, there are SPEEDO T-shirts and I *did* hope that I can win a t-shirt -- we almost one shirt since our ticket was 0086 and 0087 but the announcer said 0085 x.x. When the t-shirts were gone I lost hope and they said that there is a grand price going to given away.

They caled out a number, which was 0026. Nope, we didn't win... and no one came down to accept the prize.... and they draw a number again and they got 0086. Robert and I were speechless and Robert got up and accept the prize. O.O

What did we win? A round-trip ticket for 2 on any where in the Philippines via Cebu Pacific.

I CAN NOT BELIEVE IT!!!!

This is the second time I won something in the raffle... I have bad luck in raffles. There's this one time I am envious about my mother since she is very lucky and always win something in raffles.

+ I ♥ KATAMARI~!! +

mood:
music: Que Sera Sera - Katamary Damacy OST (Katamari Fortissimo Damacy)

I'm so in love with you
I wanna wad you up into my life
Let's roll up to be a single star in the sky

I need you to feel me
I wanna wad you up into my life
Let's lop up to make a single star in the sky
To you

ehem.. Actually I'm addicted with the game and when I get addicted, I don't care if I don't sleep just to play it... I remember I was playing We ♥ Katamari and I finished it overnight, with only 4 hours of sleep (and trying to play Katamari Damacy and DMC2 at the same time) I didn't finished Katamari Damacy because I think I was so tired of playing that my hands are shaking because of exhaustion.

I can still remember the first time I played Katamari Damacy when Roch brought the game in Jill's birthday party. Of course, the gamer girl in me wanted to try it and all the while Roch was telling us the story of how the game was developed up to the NA NA NA music. I was instantly hooked but I am not yet addicted.

I got addicted when I stayed in Manang's house in Alabang for an overnight thing and I bought We ♥ Katamari in Megamall while she bought the Katamari Damacy because she's curious about the game I was raving. We set-up the console and while she played Nintendo DS, I was playing PS2 -- with We ♥ Katamari. I finished the game in 5 hours or less (of course it doesn't include Eternity stages and the like) but the story of the We ♥ Katamari cracks me up.

Now I'm trying to finish Katamari Damacy and trying to beat my records as wel as making falling stars and Eternity stages (the only Eternity missing is #2 x.x) Haven't rolled the ending credits yet x.x

I'm currently listening to the 2 albums of Katamari which are Katamari Fortissimo Damacy and Minna Daisuki Katamary damacy. X.x I've been listening it for almost a week now....

And here I thought I'm addicted to Guild Wars.

Let's all roll forward, give it all you got
On a day like this let's dance and sing, I've got the leading role
It's my way, it's my way

Yes, me and Rob was ambushed a while ago... by the hosts of Studio 23. We were ambush interviewed about our love life and it's connection with cosplay. X.x

It started out last week when Robert invited me to be part of baing interviewed in a Morning Show in Studio 23 called "Breakfast". He told me that the first idea was to interview me and him and talk about our relationship and because they thought that we met in a cosplay convention. Of course Robert disagreed with it and just have a normal interview about Hero TV and cosplay -- in which we invited Cathy, Tanix, Kero, Sheila, Kuya Paul, Joy, Sephiroth, and Dheng.

I only slept for about 3 hours because my body clock didn't agree with me when I tried to sleep earlier than that. Woke up at about 3:00 am but decided to sleep some more and woke up at around 3:45 am. We were supposed to be in ABS-CBN by 5:30 am. So I got our water heater working and tried not strangle it to hurry up (as if it were alive *laughs*). Anyways, I gave up, went inside the bathroom and took a bath, and didn't care. I was ready to go by 4:15 am. I rushed outside, catch the first public transportation that I can call. Saw a Jeepney towards crossing and rode it and arrived in Crossing at about 5:00 am. WOW I'M EARLY~!! w00t!

I walked to Chowking since the transportation to ABS-CBN is still not there. Robert called and fetched me with the car that the ABS-CBN provided for us. Got to the studio by 5:30 am. We met up Mark-Hori and Dheng at the font gate. Cathy was with us and some of the band members of Dojiburon is already there.

We went to the dressing room and Joy came in as well and we were busy ourselves with chismis. I tried to do my make up but in the end I just placed concealer after concealer. Then tried to do my eyes but I failed because I'm not in the mood to fix my look. I was wearing an all black attire so it can be also used for the office.

Then Manang and Kuya came as well and we fix some more. Helped with dressing up with Cathy. Manang said that she had this cloak that I can prolly used. The black cloak was beautiful and I decided to wear it since I was wearing an all-black ensemble. But -- after a few moments Joy said that her Maria Tachibana (Sakura Wars) costume was with her and I tried it (THANKS JOY!).

So I went on stage as Maria Tachibana (one of the characters that I want to cosplay) although it's not complete. I didn't wear the boots because Joy didn't bring the boots... I also didn't wear the white leggings because the cloth is too thin that it's almost see through.

Everyone was introduced, Robert was interviewed and I was beside one of the hosts listening and try to talk with Manang since I was with her and Dheng. Then the last question of the host startled me. The host asked Robert what are things that he gets from cosplay and he answered.

After the host asked that, she said that that aren't the only things that he got out of cosplay -- and apparently he got a love life out of cosplay as well. That left him speechless while the host introduced me again but this time they announced that I am Robert's GF.X.x The mic was passed to me and I forced my mouth to move and told them that I didn't really meet him in a cosplay convention.

Errr... there was indeed cosplay on that event but... it's not a cosplay con! x.x For the record: I met Robert in Chowking after the first Ongaku, at the same time I met with Paul and Sheila. AND it was the day before me and Kuya Paul's birthday -- of course I also knew by that time that we have the same birthday and the other thinks that we look alike... --;

I hope my answers are ok -- ; I felt like that I didn't answer it right or something.. x.x

BUT... at least alam nang mga taong nakanuod na akin si Robert bleh. XD XD XD

mood:
music: Last Song - Gackt

Never forget the warmth,
of when we were nestled close, holding one another
even when you're loving someone else
I'll never let go of your voice as I heard it the last time.
I want to fall into a deep sleep.

Men are like children, Ventura. They never grow up however old they become. They long always for what they cannot get and get bored with what they have. They talk of freedom and are afraid, always, of loneliness. They crave for a home and yet say that marriage puts them in chains. They are children, just children, and more than anythingthey need us to be constantly in attendance on them.
(From "Sweet Adventure" by Barbara Cartland)

I had just read that last week and I'm trying to finish the Romance novel. I miss reading Romance novel, and with the growing collection of my sister, I like to read some of it. Although I prefer reading the reinassance and elizabethian periods where women wore tight-fitting corsets and men would act so gentlemanly to hide their insecurities and are into politics. Party all night and sleep all day.

In other news... I am not downloading the Katamary Damacy OST. Shucks. I'm addicted to it! X.x
