curtain

i have the urge to peak through curtains most of the time...this instance, it was at the coffee market @ spitalfields...

we have arrived from prague since friday evening.

all the adrenaline has waned and i tell you, my body is exhausted. i cannot even stomach facing photos right now (mine at least). but i have to because i know it'll kick me back to the land of the living once i do something productive.

saturday was spent being a vegetable on the couch. i was watching english tv like im running out of it. then a dose of telebabed to my family over the phone.

ive got some goodnews and bad news.

the good news:

-ana, my sister, who is in manila right at this moment for a debating competition (she's the team captain for STC), has told mama, that their team have won their battle against, UP, Ateneo, and La Salle. she still doesnt know if they will get a good over-all win for a trophy. im excited for her=) bring home the bacon guys!

-my cousin/bestfriend/PR manager/psychologist/cheerleader Karla received the Presidents Excellence Award from her company (this is not new news, but it makes me proud to think that even if everytime we talk she thinks she's the lousiest employee there is, she gets all these wonderful awards from her bosses).

-my lola toyang is healthy. she doesnt know this, but i do wish her health for always.

-Aileen S. for future wonderful news from her...she's sooo inspirational..i want to be her...darn, i dont care if i dont fit into her clothes.

-my cousin joan's business is soaring high,just as i expected it would, because, she's so talented and so organized, and loves her work/hobby.

-and after talking to her,she said, everything is in order for jojo's kasal...


bad news:

-my other lola and relatives from butuan cannot attend the wedding. so many reasons, so little time.

-the beach house,we were after to rent at boracay is not free anymore (the same beach house we stayed at last year)...infact, all the beachhouses we asked after it are all booked by tourists for the date we wanted. darn. winter in europe does push tourists to the beach. maybe,try another island, instead of boracay. maybe bohol? or daanbantayan? anyone knows a beach house good for 6-8 people (A/c bedrooms) with kitchen for recommendation?

-i got no motivation to finish my essays. i am just lazy,and too tired to even think about it.
