i don't care if monday's blue...

i'm still officially asleep.

Not really. Am at the office, blogging away. Just goit a rude awakening from the PR firm, they want the done "teasers" by wednesday. WEDNESDAY!!??? And they want me to do it by myself!?? Are they freakin nuts!?? The thing is, those were an assembly piece, i mean, i have to make the pieces, then assemble them one by one. Geez! They never even said the design was a go in the first place! God, now they want to friggin' rush it. Argh.

Watched the final season of Friends with Lucee before heading out for dinner with the folks. It's really weird, but somehow, the final season was not so fun. I mean, there are still gags and the weird scenarios, but i guess the feeling of impending doom was just too much... you already know what's gonna happen anyway, so by the time i was watching it,i was highly critical about a lot of things ---the characters, the scenes, even the way the cameras were moving about! *sigh* maybe it's just my way of hoping it would never change. I feel like Joey --- when he saw the house Chandler and Monica were gonna live it, he kept on sighting the cons of the place rather than the pros, hoping to make them change their minds about moving. Funny how that scene was so memorable... Hmmm. Or maybe i just like Joey a lot (heheh).

Went to have dinner with my folks last night at Chataeu Verde, in UP. Ahh, lovely. They were late of course (by an hour) but i'm just glad i got to see them again. It was Tita Alma's birthday anyway, so the celebration was a double one. We talked about poilitics (amazingly), stuff about work, and pretty much everything else. They're here to sue somebody -- a court hearing commences today at 2pm (i hope my mom wins!) and they'll be staying at a hostel in my alma mater. Kewl. I never even knew we has hostels there! (yup, i was SO into my college), let alone get discounts if you stay in those places!

Went out with Lucee afterwards to Makati. Justin, our fabulous friend, is leaving for the States on Tuesday, and soon after he'll be heading off to Spain to study. I totally envy him for that trip! But, yeah, i am sad to see him go. I only met him thricce, but he's so fun to be with! Met him at Cafe Havana in g3, where he wwas flanked by Jason, Maggie, Christine and Alex. Really kewl place, but it aso gave me the creeps... the place is notorious for being a "pick-up" place of expats/foreigners for their women of the night... scaree.

I remember one time we were there because our friends were playing, and this really old (think Dirty Old men) guy just moved his way brush past my back -- his hands straying a bit longer than usual near my bum area. Shit! That is sooo freaky! GAWD! The audacity! I mean, the floor isn't that crowded and hell, he should have been more respectful. Geez!
Jason was laughing out loud when i was telling it and after that we were pretty much bitching about who's there. hahah. Mean mean mean!

That in mind, i was hesistant to hangout there. Besides, it's weird cos it's a cuban bar but there was reggae being played and Marley songs sung... but hey, the band i sactually great! Reggae Mistress is a regular at Xaymaca bar in Timog, which we frequent everytime we have the lust for some beach jive. :-P Ok, to be fair, it was one of the more decent places to be in a sunday (after mall hours, nway). We did get to enjoy ourselves, talking, drinking mojitas and pretty much checking out the place --- i got to meet the band members after their set, which was kewl. :-)

North Park fresh prawn dumpling rocks! :-D Before going home we got to eat one last time at North Park (Makati Ave.) It's funny how after some time, Justin conceded that North park food IS better than Hapchan. Hehehe. Guess all the fuzz about Hap Chan was just all hype. :-P

Justin and I brought Maggie back to the IC before heading home, and it was pretty kewl to chill and talk with him on the ride back. We talked about music and how Rico Blanco looks so hot despite the rake-thin physique. Seriously, this guy is so darn charming the way he sings. Or maybe i'm just way too wasted to care. (hehe) He treated me to ice cream when we reached Mini Stop, and we were giggling like idiots walking home.

Nways, we all had some foodie goodies, and headed home to watch 50 first dates. I fell asleep while fixing my stuff upstairs while the movie was on, though. Come morning, i left for work late, but managed to say goodbye to Lucee and Justin. He was so sweet, hugging me like that.

Yep, I'm definitely gonna miss him. :-)
