hachooooooooooooooo

i'm having a sneezing fit right now and im getting dizzy because of it. waaaaaaaaaahh!

book shopping

i was at Fully Booked last night and i was droooling over the hundreds of books i want to buy. but obviously i can't buy all of them because books are freaking expensive. damn!

after MUCH deliberation, i bought the following books:







in case you haven't noticed, i'm onto UK authors. oh yeah, it started with Nick Hornby.

hmmm, with all the books i've recently bought, when will i ever get to read them? hee hee :D

sigh, i also wanted to buy the new Sophie Kinsella book, Can You Keep A Secret? and the new Helen Fielding book, Olivia Joules =( but i have to stick to my budget. sneef.

gotta go, sneezing fit on its way.

mandy moore!!!!!!!!!!

i saw Mandy Moore in person today and heard her sing 2 live songs from her latest album. all because i've got this glamour job. despite all the siksikan with all the jologs, it was worth it. man, i didn't have to shell out a single buck just to see her ü

jubileeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

we won! we won!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i've been really praying hard for this, that our interactive entry will win at least the bronze award in the 18th PAC. and we did!!!!!!! i feel so happy. Cross Patch even called me up to congratulate me. i'm all woozy and warm inside right now, the greatest feeling i've had all year long thats related to work.

happy happy happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i'm on my way out

i really don't care right now what policies they will implement next, if they will suspend me because of office policy violations, or if they stretch my targets. why? because i'm on my way out.

book bargains

i'm such a sucker for book bargains especially if they are hard bound books. i just bought the hard cover edition of Maeve Binchy's Tara Road for 140 bucks. I was thinking of buying a hard bound book of Barbara Taylor Bradford just because it was just for 65 bucks. and then i thougyht, naaah, i have too much thrashy books in my shelf already :P

serendipity

serendipity is on the telly right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! logging off, ciao!

search engines

this blog has a site meter and i have never used it to check my hits or page views because i know they're zilch. as there is always a first for everything, i finally checked my site meter account. i clicked on on the By Referrals link and it showed me the different search words that people used that led them to my site (in no particular order):

1. DLSU Green Archers, DLSU Green Archers Wallpapers, UP Fighting Maroons pictures - i'm definitely an Atenean ;p
2. BrandonBoydBooks, BrandonBoydBooks.com, WhiteFluffyClouds, White Fluffy Clouds Brandon Boyd, Brandon Boyd - this is neat! being a huge Brandon Boyd fan, having my pathetic blog end up in the Brandon Boyd search queries flatters me.
3. I Want To See The Board Game Upwords Back On - ooh upwords! my favorite online game! :)
4. serena williams a picture of strength and beauty - disclaimer: i'm not a serena williams fan!!!!!! but i did post something like: yay serena is not invincible. she lost a game earlier. somethign like that.
5. bratty, bratty girls, how to be a bratty person - hmm, this is something that freaks me out. do people expect people to post how to be brats and learn from them?
6. rinoa - Rinoa is my movie buddy.
7. allergies and fever - nah, this is not a medical blog. why don't people just log on to WebMD?
8. Alvin Patrimonio, Alvin Patrimonio Wedding - whoever did this search, i'm sorry i couldn't help. i met The Captain at my friend's wedding.
9. Wedding Misalette - uhhhh, i'm not getting married soon and i do not have a business involving wedding misalettes. this is more freaky than the bratty search.
10. Pictures of Ateneo Blue Eagles, Ateneo Blue Eagles Wallpapers - RIGHT ON!!!! very nice search :) but i don't have any images of the guys.
