L♥ve is a Mutt

My whole country is under a state of calamity, as declared by our President today. For days, I am tuned in to local and national news to be aware of the calamity that has been destroying the lives of my fellow Filipinos and has continue to crush the hearts of our local and national government officials. Although I am residing in the Visayas and that the predicted path of the storm will not pass our region, my heart still goes out to those who will be experiencing this typhoon, Pepeng. Last year, Frank had hit my region and has caused damage to my school and my friends' houses. We were really lucky that our house was spared of the flood. This year, we are facing two typhoons. Typhoon Ondoy had hit Metro Manila these past few days. Typhoon Pepeng will soon do. With this, I am calling out to the world, to help the Philippines in whichever way they can -- in cash, in kind, and of course, in prayer.  You can reach out through your Red Cross Organizations in your country. There are ...

Please vote for our fellow Pinoy. I just did.

Seems like this is the first time that I loathe the pouring rain. Hours have passed since nature's clouds had been saturated and gave in to precipitation. Like hours have passed since I got my neck strained from glancing out the porch window for a sign of my boyfriend. For the past few months, we barely got to hang out with each other since I'm here and he's there. He's at his hometown, volunteering in their local hospital. Yes, he is a nurse, a registered nurse, in fact. And I'm here in the city doing nothing. Actually, working on my thesis some of the days and reading some of my engineering books, which I haven't religiously read during my college days. That is, when I feel the urge to. And yes, I am an engineer engineering graduate who's trying to get her license. Kind of odd, right? He got the course suited for a lady and I got the course suited for a man, but that just doesn't matter nowadays. His ticket says he is bound for Manila tomorrow at...

I've been working for my signature and here it is! Edited it myself.

A friend for five years. A classmate. Sometimes, an enemy(we had petty fights). A kid at heart. And just a kid. A sister to her sister. A basketball addict. A food tripper. An artist in her own right. A lover. A soon to be electronics engineer. A nail polish fetish. A writer. A texter. A walking google. A phil sci student. An 18 fan. and many more.. Two friends and I made her an iced-box cake, but I believed it was more of a float with lotsa cherries in it. I sliced a cherry in half and sculpted each part into tiny hearts and placed them on the four corners of our home-made cake.

The sixteenth of September was the day my cousin turned four. Since I can't fly all the way to Laguna to greet her, I made her a picture. Her birthday was celebrated in one of my favorite childhood fastfood chain, Jollibee. Bratz was the theme she liked for her birthday. In her pictorial, she dressed like one, too with all the brigt stripes and leggings. I have to use the stamp tool (one of my fave tools), to erase one member of the Bratz and replace it with the picture of my cousin. Too bad I can't join the fun. Naomi Keith is her real name and she can talk sense. Here is one of her conversations with her mama. Naomi: Mama, pahiram ng cellphone, may itetext ako. Mama: Bakit? Sino ba i-tetext mo? Naomi: Si Michael Jackson at si Tita Cory. Mama: Anung itetext mo sa kanila? Naomi: Tatanunging ko lang kung patay na talga sila. *Pagkaraan ng ilang araw. Mama: Nagtext back ba si Michael Jackson at Tita Cory sa'yo? Naomi: Opo. Patay na raw sila. *quick laughter* ...

This is a DogBerry follow up entry. Since I haven't formally introduced my two dogs. This a follow-up for my post yesterday. Read on! My dogs don't bite - unless you mess up with them. Lol. I'm kidding. Name: Bimbim Sex: Female Breed: Pure Japanese Spitz Color: snow white Birthdate: June 10, 2009 Weakness: Food, anything that can be munched on Fear: Bath time! No. of persons attacked: No Record, yet. Dominating Trait: Jumpy. The faintest sounds get her. I wonder how will she do during New Year. Embarrassing Moment: She puked on me and my mother inside the taxi. Ew. I bet the ride had given her headache.  Instead of getting angry at her, my mom and I felt sorry. From the backride, she went to me and sat on my lap. And I held her on my chest, thinking that she is in the mood for some cuddling. Only she would do the deed after a few minutes. We were nearly there on my tita's house when it happened. So was this a good thing or a bad thing? Good, s...
