blogging from the egg office while waiting for hannah.melvin is sleeping. plan to tie him up and drag him all the way to pampanga. tintin as usual wants to know our whereabouts. 9:30 ang usapan at 10am na. yikes. pero excited ako since this is our first eggkada out of town trip this year. hope it will be as fun and memorable as galera.

my summer has officially started

Saturday, March 24th, 2007

im not going to do it "student-style" where you get two amazing months to do whatever you want. nope, sadly i am now a member of the workforce which means that the only vacations i get are the government-mandated ones.

on the brighter side of things, i still get my weekends or at least 3/4 of it and i try to maximize that…uhm…hold on a sec..48 hours by 4, 12 times 3, 36! thirty-six work-free hours to something i can categorically classify as a pseudo summer vaycayshun!

operationally, this means me and kay getting off from work at 7:30 pm last friday and making a MAD dash to glorietta and hoard cute and affordable swimsuits by pinkbelter.  saturday morning, i drag my sister, brother (despite their objections "saka na lang ate…ayaw naming nognog sa graduation!") to the nearest, cleanest body of water (riviera poolhouse) to swim. my first summer dip. yay! we go home at around 1pm and this is when i realize that i have a slight sunburn because i forgot to put sunscreen on my legs. it hurts, but hey, nothing like a not-so-serious sunburn to get into the summer season right?! the following weeks include trips to fontana, camsur, ternate/laguna,  dumaguete,  bora not necessarily in chronological order.there will be minor adjustments due to the curse of "allowable number of leaves" but i’m sure i’ll squeeze most of these in…right?! (fingers crossed)

a typical weekend food trip in pancit sa bilao

Monday, March 12th, 2007

i wake up at 11am and eat sinangag/bread and bacon/hotdog with scrambled eggs which my oh-so-generous brother has set aside for me. sometimes i eat a completely different meal and he gets upset ("tsk,tsk, tinira ko pa naman yan para sa ‘yo tapos hindi mo pala kakainin" )awww…

12nn - i usually don’t eat lunch (see above) but sometimes my parents get angry since we have to eat together as i family so i  dine with them even if my stomache says otherwise.

1pm - i eat lunch (if my parents let me get away with it)

3pm - tita tere cooks fishballs, i get pancit malabon from downstairs, denise makes juice and my entire family is gathered once again in our most favorite part of the house: the kitchen.

6pm - we munch on chichirya while watching the buzz. our motto: bawal tumigil ngumuya!

8pm - we eat whatever lola cooked for dinner and leftover lunch (note that these two are usually composed of entirely different dishes) and of course, mango shake!

10pm - we throw a "party" for ourselves which basically means watching whatever is on cable and munch on popcorn, juice and more junk food

12mn - we see each other in the kitchen, munching cake or left over junkfood which is our….hehe. midnight snack

we say our prayers (lord, please properly digest all the food we consumed) and sleep.

we wake up and the same thing happens all over again.

and the weirdest thing is…

we are all so freakingly thin. spend a weekend with us and see for yourself.

i DARE ‘ya
