1. Hoarding amazing books from Fully Booked, undies from La Senza, dresses from Promod and Forever 21, a pair of shoes from Zara, and a Hello Kitty belt from Vans. Equals happiness. The shallow, manic cash register kind of happiness, but still. Hahaha.
2. Weekend lunch with the gang at Yen Yen Taiwan Street Food. We all loved the food, and I loved the tall poster of Taipei 101. Is had this thing for skyscrapers since New York and Empire State Building. It's a milder version of my hello kitty obsession - while Ardo spews out nosebleed trivia like the height of the buildings, the year they were built, where to find them, etc. He doesn't even wait to be asked. Sheesh. Like I always say, Anna - let's move on and cultivate a marketable skill next time, why don't we? Something that will finance our Breadtalk addiction. Hahaha.
3. Thom surprising me with a Moonleaf at work in the middle of the day. Owww. Thom is the perfect poster boy for loyal, enduring friendship.
4. Mary Grace ensaymada smothered with quezo de bola. I've always loved their cheese rolls and lemon bars, and now I found this amazing ensaymada, too.
5. Trying out new milk teas, like those from J. Co. I'm not going to ditch my usual favorites for J. Co. or anything, but this place definitely walks away with The Cheesiest Napkins Award. Hahaha. Parang kami lang ni Ches.
6. Another Alba's lunch treat from my snooty friend in the office
7. A lunch treat from Legal Dept' boss, too, at Pancake House
8. Trying out something new, all for the love of Ches. I am fiercely anti-gun, but somehow he's into this whole shooting thing and has been bugging me to go with him for the longest time. So I finally went, fired one shot, and was so traumatized by the sound and fury of it all that I couldn't take another. I told him: you shoot your guns, I'll shoot my pictures. I mean, we can't all be the same kind of trigger happy friends, right? Haha. As for Jewel she said if she can't use her Lawyerly ability then she might use this one hahaha...."He" better be on the look out :P
9. Kind words from loved ones,. Sir also asked what my rank was in Accountancy school, and when I told him, he said, 'Good job!', complete with a high five. It was so the opposite of his usual snooty comments to me that I was rendered speechless for about five minutes. Hahaha.
10. The forces of good gathering steam (as my friend G puts it) to keep us in the fight when the dark side puts us down
11. Ann's baby shower at Serye, where we finished more than a kilo of crispy pata, plus kare-kare and bangus belly steak, and we had tall, too sweet drinks, to boot. We are clearly miles and miles away from our Biggest Loser days. Hahaha.
12. Stormy weekends which we spend lazing around in bed with our own little gadgets and books. Family bliss is made of these.
13. The London Olympics opening ceremonies. It was Raphael who told me I had to see it bcoz it had J. K. Rowling, Hugh Grant, Hey Jude, Voldemort - all things British that she knew I liked. So I watched it, and she was right, I loved it! The queen descending in a parachute with her knickers showing was tacky, and I'm not really a fan of Beckham - but never mind bcoz there was Mr. Bean playing the Chariots of Fire theme with the orchestra, and the magnificent cauldron rising from the ground to form the Olympic flame, like magic. Fantastic.
