______________________________

my (almost) free time in 3 weeks




since the work is pending in the management's hands, i have the free time to blog what has happened today...

not as bad as yesterday, maybe it was not my day. i totally blacked out... everything was baaad.

but today is different. thought still lacking sleep for three consecutive weeks now, i have managed to survive. efficiently.

here i am, at home but still working, listening to jim brickman's instrumental - all i ever wanted. i just want to lie down and sleep.

but i can't. so i just lighted some candles in this wonderful frosty bottle bambi got for me and pretended to be relaxed while tiring my eyes in front of my mac.

i am so uninspired. i have done two artworks for this summer promotion and as it nears completion, they have thought of something new concept to do. so why the hell am i wasting my time and neglecting my sleep if it will just end like this?...

can't wait for tyrone's birthday on sunday...

bench is closing down. their distributor said they're going to change to penshoppe. can you believe that! i am beyond happy! i have always loved that pink cologne since college, i even brought some bottles here.


utada hikaru's first love drifts in the darkness of my room... if i will (ever) have a bridal entrance for our wedding, this is so gonna be the song!

i've found this poem and it really struck me inside... everyone should have a copy of this in their bedroom wall...

I am thankful....
For the husband who snores all night,
Because he is at home asleep with me and not with someone else
For my teenage daughter who is complaining about doing their chores,
Because that means she is at home & not on the streets.
For the taxes that I pay,
Because it means that I am employed.
For the mess to clean after a party,
Because it means that I have been surrounded by friends.
For the clothes that fit! a little too snug,
Because it means I have enough to eat
For a floor that needs mopping, and windows that need cleaning,
Because it means I have a home.
For all the complaining I hear about the government,
Because it means that we have freedom of speech.
For the parking spot I find at the far end of the parking lot,
Because it means I am capable of walking and that have been blessed with transportation.
For the noise I have to bear from my neighbours,
Because it means that I can hear.
For the pile of laundry and ironing,
Because it means I have clothes to wear.
For weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day,
Because it means I have been capable of working hard.
For the alarm that goes off in the early morning hours,
Because it means that I am alive.


hey...
... for the cockroaches that comes close because it means i am eating?


nah.. i am so gonna kill these cockroaches as soon as i have the magic to do so.

bottled up for too long


So! It's been a while. You come here often?!

Original artwork by Unkymoods.com, Image hosted by Photobucket.commy sister, who is close to having a nervous breakdown (damn for those who made her feel that way, it will go back to you 10x and you'll probably feel like shit, too) goes to an internet cafe twice or thrice a week and she has more posts than i do. and here i am always in front my ibook and pc yet i can only blog once a month...

and still i have nothing to say.

hey, why did i blog today? has been a long time since...

i was just psych-ing myself for another artwork and it just came to me to write what i feel at the moment.

i think i'd die if i don't daydream once in w while... maybe that's why i am so freaked out these days - I CANNOT FIND THE TIME TO DREAM!

aha - mystery solved. back to work.

but....

Original artwork by Unkymoods.com, Image hosted by Photobucket.comwhile bambi is physically fatigued due to The One's one month sale, i am mentally exhausted. i am swallowed by my work. this pocket magazine has not been finalized yet. not my fault - most artworks are pending from the management. sometimes a designer's life is so unfair. you take your time and energy to make something and they cancel it just like that.

yeah - and like that's all i care about this week. or this year so far. most of the time i take my work home because i cannot fit them all in my office hours. unfair - i know... but im not complaining.

even though i am starting to show signs of stress - sometimes i screw up something that i normally wouldn't. i am so in need of a break!

and just when i thought i could celebrate when we publish this magazine to relax my nerves i got another assignment - web design. not all my own though - i have to collaborate with this web developer from london. i just feel like i haven't rested well since this year started, i am so busy with creative and secretarial gigs, i can't imagine how crazy it could be in the future.

but like i said before - i am not complaining.

hey - what is a blog for if you can't say what's in your head and not worry about the listener going away? if i am boring you, you can go...

so what is my stress reliever this month? bambi just bought me a gameboy advance sp. i am lovin' super mario...

and it's really helpful to let time pass when you're on the treadmill. yeah - he bought me one last month, but i haven't noticed any difference on my weight. i lost two inches on my waist though... cool.

last night bambi bought batman and pokemon and yuyu hakusho... ahh! haven't you noticed my bambi seems to be buying a lot for me lately? like he said - "hey, anything to keep you off the mall each weekend..."

ok...

remember tina romulo? i blogged about her on my other blog last last year, when she told me she was pregnant? her son is going to celebrate his first birthday this sunday. i hope bambi and i can go, it's like a reunion for new-age staff who went away and those who stayed. i can't imagine how noisy we could be!


hmm...

Original artwork by Unkymoods.com, Image hosted by Photobucket.comi love nina's song jealous, it's melody is so nice. these days i could be listening to rocksteddy or nina, whatever my mood needs...














Original artwork by Unkymoods.com, Image hosted by Photobucket.comi don't know why i am such a crybaby these days - everytime i hear a sad music, i cry. everytime i watch oprah, i cry. like when she gave this fantasy wedding and it was so nice and romantic... my gosh i really cried when they went to each other's mother and thanked them. it was so touching...

anyway i have to finish two artworks tonight so i think that's enough to update you at how crazy it is right now... and i haven't told you half of the story yet!
