You know you're an international kid if...

(ahaha, i was amused. i got this off jana) 1. You own a passport, or you own more than one passport, or you own a foreign passport. 2. You know what TCK means. -- actually, i don't know what this means, but it looks familiar! ahaha! 3. You know what expat means. 4. You use MSN/ICQ because you know they're cooler than AIM (and the rest of the world uses it) -- you know this is old when they still mention ICQ! ahaha 5. Fahrenheit = f'd up.

the one-liner entries

don't have much to say kasi... except i am happy. happy. happy!!! :)
it is lonely here without all the noise =(
i had fun this weekend. it was friends, family and sayangku. it was dinner with family and sayangku last friday night. hanging out with sayangku after. kirby's baptismal saturday lunch and afternoon. hanging out with friends i've missed so much (altho, kulang! when can we all catch up again?). hanging out with sayangku. eating at old spaghetti house for dinner (sarap). drinking at 121 (sarap). i've missed being with sayang so much. saturday was full-on tambay for us - sobrang kwentuhan lang kami. making plans, wishing, catching up. haha. i love how we both have the same feeling about some big, important things. :) after finding that out, a certain feeling is stronger than ever now. malapit na ata talaga. ahaha. :) i love it! :D i loved saturday so much. :) sunday though, started out so quietly. i didn't see the sun the whole day! :p which was really depressing. when my family finally got a move on, we all met up na lang at rockwell for church and dinner. watched pirate...
there's been one common thread for conversation lately, whenever the adults turn to look at me. don't get me wrong, i love that they think it's ok. i love that sayang thinks it's ok. and that he's as excited and eager as i am. but the thing is, it pushes my mind into overdrive and i can't help but imagine, plan and try to imagine ways and shortcuts to make it come true. and i don't want to do that anymore, because really, there is no rush. there is time. we know it's sooner rather than later. that is, we wish that it is sooner rather than later. :p and i don't want to think about it muna because i'm afraid he'll think i'm in a hurry when i'm really not. we'll meet our set requirements before anything goes, i know it. :) things needed will be there, when their time arrives. i do realize though, that some working will need to be done from our part but yeah, it'll get there. it's all cool. we're cool. haha :) -==- that be...
so why is it that out of the three people who make up our team, i am the only one left here at work??? ako kaya yng inaantok! well, now that it has passed, i'm actually kind of awake. there's no telling how i'm gonna be later on. i've been up since 5am! ahahaha... -==- Congrats Gladsy Jane! When are we going to drink to your new position? ahahaha... :) -==- I love you sayang. -==- ang random ng blog na to. -==- yay, one and a half hours to go till the day officially ends. too bad i left my earphones at home, or else i'll be watching trailers now to pass time. i realise i could spend this time sleeping but i don't have my pillow either. haha. -==- sometimes i wonder how it is possible that you can feel, for sure, about a certain thing? that while you can't pinpoint a time, you know it's sooner rather than later? i've never felt anything so sure about something so uncertain before. i know it's going to happen. i just don't know the exact time. ...

am finally home!

after one damn long ass flight, am finally home. it feels really really good to be back at my own space. to be using my own (fast) laptop. to be taking a shower in my own bathroom. nevermind the fact that it's almost 2am and i'm wide awake, like it's 2pm. :p jetlag here we go! :) anyway, as much as i spent this trip silently wishing that i were back already (that's what you get when you miss someone badly), i did have fun. so since i've got nothing better to do anyway, here are some of the trip's highlights: Canada: It was great seeing some old Jakarta family friends. As well as some actual relatives. They took us around, fed us (Kelsey's and the dinner at Tita Rose's house come to mind.. yum!), and basically had us (well, our parents) catch them up on things back home. To me, the absolute highlight of being in Canada was this: This is Ian. We were extremely close, he was my biggest crush in high school but most of all, he was one of my best friends. We ...
