i think i'm growing up.
i used to be the type of person that throws caution to the wind and does whatever comes her way. i could be in the middle of doing my homework and then just get up and leave to go somewhere. i could be driving to school and then decide to drive to chicago instead. i could be on my way to a chinese restaurant and then realize i there's a new mexican restaurant so i check it out. i used to plan my life by the day. but now, i'm having the dire need to plan my life by the hour, by the day, by the week.. by the month, even. as much as i like spontaneity, randomness and adventure, i feel like i'm in that stage in my life where i need to know where i am, what i'm doing, and who i am, two hours from now, a week from tomorrow, a month from yesterday.
maybe it's just my control issues.

frustrations
i wish i am not obligated to go to school. or earn money. (well, at the very least for the next half year.) because i want to go back to devoting 100% of my time to crafting.
ultimate dream ever: to have my own house (doesn't have to be big) with a big attic with nice dormers and turn it into a craft studio. no basements for me. the basement will be for my photography studio. complete with backgrounds and a darkroom. haha.
i want to learn AND relearn AND just basically go back:

i want to learn AND relearn AND just basically go back:
- knitting
- crocheting
- beadmaking
- screenprinting
- sewing
- scrapbooking
- collages
- painting
- pottery
- ceramics
- glass-blowing
- sculpture
- welding
- photography
- EVERYTHING ARTS and CRAFTS!!
.:GAH:. i wish life was as easy as waking up in the morning and crafting the day away.

stuck
i've been sitting in front of the cpb computer for the most part of the day (with the exception of when danny and i ate lunch at white pearl courtesy of kuya ramon, and danny and i and elisa went to the filipino store to buy egg rolls and then ventured to lovers' lane to do some adventure explorations!). and why have i been staring the computer in the face? because i'm effin looking for a job, that's why. i need a job. PRONTO! i've been jobless before.. but this forced joblessness sucks major balls and i just wanna find one right away. .:GAH:.
a few quick microblogs:
a few quick microblogs:
- danny and i went to adrian's house after midnight (sunday: 0030hrs) to ambush adrian for his 19th birthday. sparklers everywhere, it was fun. ..and i ended up ranting YET AGAIN about this impending stupidity of people wanting to change the asian filipino club name. (uhm, they want to remove the names asian AND filipino. wtf??)
- cast party of hello, dolly! sunday night at jb's. it was fun. as always. but then again, it'd be funner if i actually sing. well, i am filipino and i do have a natural affinity for karaoke bars and singing shamelessly in public. but i'm surrounded by theatre peepz so i dare not step on stage and grab that mic. haha.
- ..and to think i even considered applying in lovers' lane? HAH! the person working there was so open about her sexcapades that these phrases stuck with me as we left the place: re: the kinky swing set >> this is seriously the best investment i have ever made ever!! re:vibrators >> you are holding one of the best vibrators here in the store!! (i'm like, whose? mine's? danny's? or elisa's? ..i turned out to be what i was holding. so i put it back down.)
- did i mention i need a job, PRONTO!!
- ..coz my new place is screaming for cable and internet. and utility payments and rent. and car payments and car insurances. and cellphone bills and stuff.
oh, goodness.

hello, dolly!
last night was opening night for eccmt's hello, dolly!. danny was in it, so obviously, i was front and center. well, more like, five rows front and center. it was a funny and awesome show. sarafina was amazing playing dolly and i could not imagine anyone else playing mrs. dolly levi. there were a lot of people in this production and the set was so and so. the show opened with a song with the ensemble but it surprisingly didn't open with a big bang. the voices of the ensemble was weak, actually. but the choreography and the songs itself was fun and entertaining. kudos to miss konnie for the choreography and directing.
the hello, dolly! scene with the waiters and dolly was the most powerful scene of the whole show. well it should be, right? it's the title scene. but the waiters were all fun, engaging, entertaining, and limber. and marissa was so funny and adorable as the chef. haha! i don't want to be biased or anything, but of course danny did a really great job! this is only his second production and already he's playing a featured dancer, alongside vince cortese who's been doing shows for the past four years.
the other thing that i like (from a more personal point of view) was the fact that jeanette was part of the emsemble. fact: late last year jeanette was the lead role in the play lu ann hampton laverty oberlander, and this season she was part of the ensemble for dolly. although she kinda faded out in the background a little bit, i love how she's in theatre regardless of role. a show is a show and the love for it is just that. i personally knew someone who turned down an ensemble role because he have already previously held individual roles.
another person who did a really awesome job was amy. and may i just say she is so pretty in her black night out dress! one of my personal favorite songs was amy's rendition of the song ribbons on my back. it aws such a sad song, and with amy's doe eyes, it was just so pretty. the song is about how amy's character mrs. molloy wants to get out of the rut she is in and she wants to find that person that will marry her and love her and the the only was that'll happen is if she goes out there and the only way she'll stand out and get noticed is to wear a hat with ribbon at the back. or something like that.
afterparty.
after the show, most of the cast and some of the crew (meaning tony.. hehe!) went to squire for some grub and that's when i got to meet most of them. there's taylor and jenna who are like bestfriends and still in middle school who are just SO HYPER, just looking at them drained me more that it would drain me to work out with danny. seriously. but they were fun as hizzle! and then of course there's casey, who i've met previously in a high school concert somewhere. he's from wisconsin, and funny in a weird only he can get it kind of humor. oh and he likes to hide my phone. AND he bit/licked my arm. ew ew ew!! and then there'r other people too like chloe and missy and blah blah blah. haha. i'll prolly see them again at the cast party this sunday. tee hee.
but yea. overall, i had fun. btw: why did my blog suddenly sound like a review from the entertainment section? didn't mean to, i swear. oh well. gotta go limewire. ta ta!

screw up
i haven't blogged in FOREVER.
for a lot of different reasons.
i've been busy with school stuff. i've been busy with personal stuff. i've been busy trying to fix my life. i've been busy coping with being fired from my job. and i've been busy dealing with the BIGGEST screw up i could have ever done with and in my life. no, i'm no accidental preggo. nope nope.
it's way bigger than that. way, WAY bigger. and the only people who know are my sister, my mom, and my boyfriend.
and he has been the biggest, nicest, best thing that has ever happened to me. without him, i don't know how i'd be dealing with this right now. right now i can't talk about this big screw up that happened. not until it's finally over. OVER.
all i know is right now, i'm thankful for every meal, every laughter, every smile, every little thing that comes my way. and right now, i'm working uber hard to go back to GOD, because honestly, i need Him more than ever. or else i'd go crazy.
and special kudos to my boyfriend slash bestfriend for being here for me though all this mess i'm in right now. if not for him, i'd seriously go insane trying to cope and deal and whatnot. he's so awesome at being my protector that even when he's not doing anything, just sitting next to me, i already know i'm safe. i don't know what else to tell him. or how ever way to show my appreciation. he seriously is, and i believe so, my guardian angel. and i even told him a few days ago.. "is it even right to date your guardian angel?"
i love him, and i love how he's here for me despite his busy schedule and whatnot. he's here for me. and i promise myself that when this thing blows over, it's going to be all about him.
