Everything by Lifehouse

I love this song--

Find Me Here
Speak To Me
I Want To Feel You
I Need To Hear You

You Are The Light
That's Leading Me
To The Place
Where I Find Peace Again

You Are The Strength
That Keeps Me Walking
You Are The Hope
That Keeps Me Trusting

You Are The Life
To My Soul
You Are My Purpose
You Are Everything

And How Can I
Stand Here With You
And Not Be Moved By You
Would You Tell Me
How Could It Be
Any Better Than This

You Calm The Storms
You Give Me Rest
You Hold Me In Your Hands
You Won't Let Me Fall

You Still My Heart
And You Take My Breath Away
Would You Take Me In
Would You Take Me Deeper Now

And How Can I
Stand Here With You
And Not Be Moved By You
Would You Tell Me
How Could It Be
Any Better Than This

'cause You're All I Want
You Are All I Need
You Are Everything
Everything

early birthday gifts!!!

I got my presents early this year!!!

My parents gave me Tyler tops, my brothers got a checkbook holder and my really good Citi friend gave me this:



I love this book! Well, she knows I love Lucky and she knows I love shopping... so tadaaaa! Yay! And I love the clothes too. Hehehe..... :) Yay! If you can't shop in real life, Lucky really gives you a good alternative. Just flip through fashion-filled pages and feel just as energized!! :D

I really love the gifts, though I must also admit that for some reason, my birthday this year seems a tad less "eventful"... nothing external really caused it.. It's not that something bad happened... It's more internal... like I don't feel much up for celebrating. Must be the less-than-ideal life situations of some of my friends that's going on now, or must be the global crisis, or the stress of work + school + teaching that kinda burned me out recently.... Or maybe a combination of all those things... Well.... Makes me feel less in a cheery mood... Also, for some reason, turning 26 doesn't seem like an "event" to me right now... (shrug)...... Oh well....

Crappy people...

make places crappy too.

I really hate this day...

:(

a few days to go......

before I turn 26! :p

super touched teacher

I ended my first teaching stint today, wrapped up by the students' final presentations on their respective brands. At the end of the class, I sorta gave a short wrap-up talk then dismissed them for the semester for good... when suddenly, the class surprised me with a gift (long story on what the gift is about... Suffice it to say that the gift is a reminder of an important lesson I taught them), saying that they will never forget me and that they had a really great time in my class. Awwww... I really didn't know what to say except thank you. They also asked if I could take a class pic with them, as well as individual pics with each presenting group. So cute! I don't remember ever giving such treatment to any of my previous professors, so I felt really honored to be so... well, honored. Hehehe. It was a nice way of concluding this series of 15 consecutive Saturdays that found me in a college classroom from 9am to 12nn.... :)

Now let's see if I can muster the energy to go through it again next year... but for now, given the great day I had today, I might just be up for it again.... :p Let's see...

singapore...

hmmmmmm......................

Singapore = isa kang malaking possibility.......


EXCITING!

nice dinner last night...

which reminded me that:
1. There's life outside of the place I work in right now
2. There's really no need for unnecessary crap that causes unnecessary stress
3. There are better places and better options out there in the world.

AMEN!

holiday!!!

Spent the whole day vegging out at home.. woke up at 11:30, had a lazy lunch, spent the entire afternoon in bed watching my tv series-- Greek Season 1, Gossip Girl and Privileged... now I'm about to start on the 2nd season of Greek, then on to Project Runway Philippines later at ETC. I love this day! This kinda day does prop up few and far in between, but when it does come around, I just love love love it! I actually thought of correcting the papers for the class I'm teaching, or doing some advance reading for my MBA class, but decided, nah! Today is veg-out, rot-my-brain day, complete with dvds, my computer, my chips and chocolate bars! Yay for holidays! :p
