dear book

I guess you made it to the top of my list. Just a couple weeks more, and I will go find time to get you out of that store shelf. Hang in there.

touch of an angel

What I love about riding buses? I get to talk to random people. Like today, I got to meet Shauna, a charming girl. Sweet wandering mind of mine--I forgot to ask for a transfer (and I have no single coin left for another bus ride). I was lazy to ask for it before I took off the bus. :D


Good thing there's the Human Bean coffee house in front of my next bus stop. Human Bean is Manitoba's largest selection of coffee beans and loose tea (yay. I'm in heaven). Don't forget the fresh pastries. From such a wide selection, pretty names take all the valor. The Angel face cappuccino caught my eye. The name says it all: I was instantly transported to heaven. It became my instant favorite of all the coffee flavors I've tried all my life. But wait, I will never stop there. The game is on to try all the other flavors of latte, cappuccino, cafe mocha, hot chocolate, chai, and specialty blender smoothie (that's about 30+ individual flavors and counting) of HB. But no I won't try every single one,lol.


P.S. Thank you sweet wandering mind of mine. Happy cups all you lovely people.

goodmorning sunshine =D

A cabbage patch kid? Hmm.

1. requires extra attention? checked
2. requires tender loving care? checked
3. soft, fine, heavenly-smelling hair? checked
4. twinkling eyes: checked
5. the all's-well-with-the-world smile? checked
6. cabbage patch facial symmetry? checked
7. special delivery stork plus "ready for adoption' that comes with adoption papers and birth certificate? definitely an X.

you've been deceived. hekhekhek. this is drew, my friend's nephew. so now, let's just enjoy the view, alrytie

lights off

"..happy birthday happy birthdaaaay, haaappy birthday to yooouuuu..!." (blows the candle off then claps) -- the song kids sang, back in the old days, especially us probinsyanos, when the lights return after a blackout.

I love blackouts, particularly at night ( i wouldn't be enjoying it unless it's this seldom, otherwise it can be pretty interrupting.) People conversing face to face, joking about fun experiences, telling scary stories, little boys scaring little girls, playing silly games, or just plain enjoying the still of the silence, these are a few reasons why. Routine modern life gets stripped-naked and is made uncomplicated even for a short while.

wanna join? come waste your time with me. ;)

no pokerface

Yes, she's dressed in "kumot" or what we call blanket, and yes, she's playing cards. For the blanket, she was wearing this long before i got into her house. Flashback: I remember how my cousins and I used to get all the newly-washed blankets from our lola inang's cabinet to make ooh la la gowns for our so-called fantasy pageants when we used to be kiddos.

I thought i'd be seeing her play with dolls, i thought wrong, tsk. For a short while, we played unggoy-ungguyan, (i don't know how to play poker.boo--well there's always a first time). Letting her win makes me laugh (secretly in my mind). :p

Why so serious?

Meet Bradagul (left) and Mickey mouse (right) just posing for their big AHHHH! Looks like two pups are ready for a trip to a dentist or maybe to an anything-edible-can-do-or-the-heck-if-it's-not paradise.

p.s. Myka you'd better be ready for their tooth fairies.
