Our planned breakfast after shift turned to be an all afternoon event.  We ate breakfast from 8a to about 11a.  Chika to death about everything and everybody.. kung hindi pa cguro kame binantayan ng waiter sa pancake house baka d pa kame umalis. Ü  We went to our very favorite store ever - National (greenbelt) then Powerbooks then National again (Glorietta) then BookSale.

Eksena sa powerbooks:
"stop reading those self help books.  It makes you look like sad. Unhappy and desperate!" - KAye.  Only her!  I had to answer back - "its not even self help! Mygawd." which she gave an answer of just a "yeah right" look. (sooo Katlin)

We came across the amazing "BOOK OF ANSWER".  Highschool pa lng pinagnanasaan na namen ni Kaye toh..
G: how much?
K: 700p
G: pa din? hellooo high school pa lng 700 na yan!
K: I know
G: lets ask a question...
K: cge! what should we ask?
G:(gave a meaningful look)
K: okay. (mumbled)
Book of answer: Learn more about it.
K: whaaaaaaaaaaaa
G: it doesnt mean anything...
K: it doesnt mean anything ka ngayon eh ikaw nagsabing magtanong! (SHEMPRE IN A PASIGAW VOICE)
G: hahahah
K: wag ka tumawa...

CLASSIC quotes from that day:

K: Gi, be sure na ayucin mo pkikinig sa instructions ni Andrew ha.  Hindi ung tipong oo ka pero pag-nagusap tayo, "ay Kaye i forgot". Nakooo.  I know you!

Txt from Jho: Have fun girls. DONT FORGET TO TALK ABOUT ME ha. I'll sleep na. Ikain nyo na lng ako..

K: hay nako G.. ampanget nya!
G: wahahaha

G: shet 330p na..
K: oo nga, sabi natin bfast lng.  Andaldal mo kace eh!
G: oo nga. ako lng kce ang panay kwento.

Before going home, we had to eat in MCdo.  Gutom na naman sha..kasalanan ko nanaman kce nanghina sha sa sagot ng mahiwagang book of answers!  Shempre mega chisms na naman.  Naalala pa namen ang P5 ice cream cone na pinagkaguluhan sa Mcdo UN (JHO do you remember?)  The entire time that we're together wala kame ginawa kundi mag-chika.  We started the visit with chismis and shempre ended it with chismis.  We reminisced and laughed and shempre nanlait c Katlin! hahaha.  Tpos 4p na pala.  May shift pa kame.  I had such a good time.

She's her and I'm me.  Sometimes I tend to forget who I am and what am all about, then i talk to Kaye and I remember.

To celebrate growing old

I think its only appropriate to re-post this as I just turned 26 and feel so mature! Hahaha.  I super love this list.

Written By Regina Brett, 90 years old, of The Plain Dealer, Cleveland, Ohio
“To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most-requested column I’ve ever written.”


1. Life isn’t fair, but it’s still good.
2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.
3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.
4. Your job won’t take care of you when you’re sick. Your friends & family will. Stay in touch.
5. Pay off your credit cards every month.
6. You don’t have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
7. Cry with someone. It’s more healing than crying alone.
9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.
10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.
11. Make peace with your past so it won’t screw up the present.
12. It’s OK to let your children see you cry.
13. Don’t compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn’t be in it.
15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye.
16. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.
17. Get rid of anything that isn’t useful, beautiful or joyful.
18. Whatever doesn’t kill you really does make you stronger.
19. It’s never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.
20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don’t take no for an answer.
21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, and wear the fancy lingerie. Don’t save it for a special occasion. Today is special.
22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.
23. Be eccentric now. Don’t wait for old age to wear purple.
24. The most important sex organ is the brain.
25. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.
26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words ‘In five years, will this matter?’
27. Always choose life.
28. Forgive everyone for everything.
29. What other people think of you is none of your business.
30. Time heals almost everything. Give time time.
31. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.
32. Don’t take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
33. Believe in miracles.
35. Don’t audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.
36. Growing old beats the alternative — dying young.
37. Your children get only one childhood.
38. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.
39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.
40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else’s, we’d grab ours back.
41. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
42. The best is yet to come.
43. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
44. Yield.
45. Life isn’t tied with a bow, but it’s still a gift.
