Between July 21-27,2008 : The highlight of my week was my date with Josh. Pictures and a bit of kwento HERE. Yup, Click Here.

Other than that, Lao and Ken are finally here. So its the usual dinner+coffee date with my best girl and pa-girl pals! Weeeee…Since I am not in the mood for much talking. Let the pictures speak for itself.

In attendance(L-R seated) : In striking black dress and jet black hair ~ Suri errr Yova, Panyang with a twang, Sexy Mommy Van, JR a.k.a Anhing (the late) JR, Tiya Ruffa sporting my hat (give it back!), Ebbe “what a night!” pa-demure ever and Refreshingly fresh with a shorter ‘do and new LV bag Ronn.

(L-R Standing) : Grumpy Gil, Skinny Lao, and controvertial Ken.

That night was full of stories, funny jokes and revelations. Tomorrow (friday) we’ll have our annual barkada shot (so high school lol) super excited. I just hope my colds and fever die down tonight. I really need to go out and have fun.

Last Saturday, Daddy J and I had a proper date so to speak. We planned to have dinner at Krua Thai and after I’ll go off to my friends for coffee and he, to his friends for beer. That’s how sweet(?) we are. Anyway, I was really looking forward for this one because it will be our last date, and the next would be 9 months from now. Besides, Krua Thai’s Spicy Prawn soup is soooo yummy. Also, I’m excited meeting my friends because I’ve missed D and K so much and of course the rest of my college crazy friends.

I was busy mentally selecting through my outfits, I ironed my hair, groomed my eyebrows and even tried nose strips for getting rid of those pesky blackheads but sadly, it doesn’t work. I really have to have a nice facial or something to get them out.

I remember way back when I was still single, it would take me the whole afternoon just to get ready for a night our or a date. Now, it only takes me 1 hour max. Times have indeed, changed for me.

Sunday was spent at mostly at home. Exept for attending mass and a short trip to the mall, we stayed in because I caught a bug or something now I don’t feel well. I was supposed to do some online tasks yesterday but decided to let them all expire. I am too sick and lazy to even try.

Pictures to follow. I didn’t bring my cam and the one in charge has not uploaded them yet. hehehe.

How was your weekend?

I am very much looking forward to K and D’s homecoming by the end of this month. I miss them both terribly and if it was up to me, I’d want them to work here instead of Cavite. Selfish? I guess, but I only have a handful of really good ‘girl’ friends and sadly 2 had to work outside Cebu.

Anyway, the last time K was in town we went to Sumilon. Now that their both home for a vacation we were thinking of going to Bantayan Island. But due to conflicting schedule, monetary constraints and prior engagements I am afraid we’ll have to settle for a one day beach outing, agree?

If I had my way, we’ll go off to the Carribean and stay in one of St. Barts villa rentals where we can relax, enjoy and pamper ourselves. Funny how when we were in still college, we had all the time in the world to travel and go beach hopping but we did not have the money. Now that we do have money, we don’t have the time anymore. Gathering everyone for a quick coffee at Starbucks is already a pain. Add to the fact that ’some’ pick their partners over their so called ‘friends’.

I hope we do get together this time around though, I miss my 6 best buds.

I have a friend who keeps asking me why I am still ‘not very fat’ even after giving birth. She, on the other hand gained so much weight after her breakup with her boyfriend. I really don’t know what to tell her except that it’s not easy being a working mom. It’s pretty tiring, draining, you lose sleep especially if your child is sick. Plus, being skinny is not always a good thing when you are covered in stretch marks.

I wanted to tell her why don’t you have a baby & breastfeed him day & night and sleep 3 hours per night? Maybe you’ll lose the weight? But of course I did not say that, instead I said, why don’t you give Phentermine without prescription a try?

In case you didn’t know it’s a diet pill ranked 35 out the 200 diet pills reviewed.

Many things happened for me last week. Weekdays was pretty ‘work-filled’ so I had a whole weekend planned on ME time. If you haven’t visited my blog last week here’s a quick summary of the highlights.

1. We received our mid-year BONUS.
2. I had my hair colored.
3. I had my nails done (super overdue..! I pity the girl who did my nails)
4. Ozzy had an accident. (he’s fine now)
5. Ozzy says the darn-est things. Daddy loves who?!
6. Watched the much anticipated movie, Sex & the City with my equally gorgeous & fab friends.

The movie was fabulous of course but it made me realize the importance of friendship and having really ‘good’ friends. You know the kind of friend who knows your flaws but loves you anyway? Those kind of treasures are hard to find in life & one is lucky to even have 3 good friends in her lifetime. I am lucky. I have friends like that.

Some may have moved to a different city, met new friends, took up different hobbies, had found love; some lost *it*, but one thing remains obvious to me (and I’m sure they feel the same way) our bond is still as strong as ever. We may not see each other everyday, or talk every time but that doesn’t mean we have drifted part, right Lao? Love. Love.

Finally saw the movie Sex & The City yesterday! In attendance were JR my BFF who is likened to the wind, always there but seldom “seen or heard”, Yova the Diva in an orange dress & patent red Janylyn pumps, Gil the “I am always busy” guy, Ebbe the heartbroken & cheated-on-so-I’ll-pour a-whole-bottle-of-beer-on-my-body while-in-the-dance-floor fashionista, Panyang the pretty single girl who is bored with her life, Ronna with her pink Gucci bag, Fred formerly known as Freda and Dwight & Rene the hot couple.

If you don’t want to know how the movie went then don’t read the next 2 paragraphs.

Of course the movie was fabulous, great clothes, shoes & handbags. No surprise there. The story was pretty simple which revolved around the foursome’s lives. Carrie was getting married to Mr. Big after 10 years of dating, Miranda was battling infidelity in her relationship with Steve, Charlotte was finally pregnant and Sam was living in L.A. trying to please a man therefore forgetting herself in the process.

Anyway, the once simple wedding became “bigger than BIG” and freaked John James (Mr. Big’s real name, can you believe it, I never knew that) out! Carrie was jilted. My favorite scene was when they were in the street and Carrie was smashing her bouquet into Mr. Big’s face. Priceless. Anyway…fast-forward 6 months later, yaddi yadda yadda they eventually realized that “forgiveness is forgiveness” and they kissed and made-up. Carrie & Mr. Big got married in City Hall in her originally planned simple white vintage suit made my a ‘nobody’.

The movie did not exceed my expectation but I enjoyed it immensely especially because I was with my friends and it was really nice to spend some time with them once in a while. I enjoyed it so much I even forgot to ask Ronna where she had her acne treatment before because I may be having break-outs in my forehead.

How was your weekend?
