Cut my f***'n finger!

last sunday, the domestic diva that is the ek insisted to cook lunch kahit na pwede namang mag-eat out na lang. (hellooo! nakapaligid kaya sa vicinity [redundant] ang mga carienderia, fastfood at restaurants!... But no! May i cook lunch parin ang Ek!)



So, after maglaba at maglinis ng bahay (mga kalat ng Thinklabers... ahem! ahem!). hilo na ako sa gutom. pero wala pa ring luto. so! go na si Ek sa kitchen para mag-prepare ng lunch.



the inevitable happened. i cut my left index finger habang naghihiwa ng sibuyas tagalog (yes, dili bisaya. waray man ibidinsya.

weird! first thing i thought of was buti na lang tapos na ko maglaba, else, mahapdi siguro magkusot nang may cut ang index finger. funny!!! :D

Ek at Mary Grace: Food and Tripping

My bestfriend and i had dinner at mary grace (trinoma) a couple of weeks ago. i think we had to buy some things tapos kumain na rin kame. she brought her new nikon camera with her... the newest addition to our portfolio of gadgets.

hindi pa sya ganun ka-sanay mag-tweak ng mga settings ng camera... so, being the helpful bestfriend that i am, i volunteered to be her test dummy. in short, the dinner became a mini photo shoot. at 'que-ber' sa mga people who were staring at us! inggit lang sila sa camera ni tots!

desssert time! i had the usual slice of sanssssrival with hot choco... talap!

mental note: will do a series on the sansrival cakes that i've sampled... ;)

Blooming?!?!? ngyEK!!! ;p

i was supposed to write something about SAPUL's 78th anniversary, the Friday inter-ek rally and the magical disappearance of the ballot boxes of the 2004 elections from the South Wing of the Batasan Complex... but this seemed to be of greater consequence...

... three weeks na akong inaalaska ng mga offiicemate ko dito sa congress... kasama si manang na nagwa-wash ng dishes namin... 'BLOOMING' DAW AKO!

super dyahe! as in! i wish they'd stop!

eh ano ngayon if i wear blush on, may faint eye shadow at nag-a-eyeliner na ako! at ano naman ngayon if i got my nails done at nagpa-hair spa ako last saturday?

"no! walang kinalaman si anthro guy from next door", i declared! but no one's buying it! durrrr!!! walang kinalaman ang romance dito!

feeling ko, moving out sort of gave me the space to center myself... ii read more, i write (somehow), and opportunities (lots!) are beginning to open for me (in fairness, march pa lang, ha? usually bumubuhos ang mga blessings sa akin pag last quarter na ng taon!)... ergo, the blooming effEK!

iba talaga yung freshness and perspective on life na nabibigay ng living independently (in my case, kahit temporary lang.)


so there, i just want to clear that one out...
walang kinalaman the anthro guy from next door... baka yung CEO ng Home Development Fund, meron pa! hahah :D
