tic-toc, tic-toc

I started packing last night. It wasn't even an hour after I stated, my balikbayan box was already full. This is it, I'm really going home. I tried not to get emotional about it but I am torn. I am excited to go home, no question. But I'm also sad about leaving San Antonio, my home for 5 years.

I just finished calling Time Warner to cancel my phone and digital cable service. No more TFC. I'm not leaving until July but saving some is actually the best thing to do right now. Good thing websites are now showing full episodes. You know how much of a tv junkie I am. Besides, I'm still retaining my basic cable, and of course my internet connection. As I put finished cancelling services, I felt a little pinch in my heart. There's no stopping this now.

I have yet to book my flight. And I still have a few activities left before the D-day. Every day it's getting harder and harder to think about it. I'm going to miss my work, my friends, the opportunities that are open to me, the ease of life that I have become accustomed to, the kind of money I earn, the luxury of life that are within my reach.

On the other hand I am rally excited to be with my family again. To have my friends beside me. I'm excited to see how my bathroom and my mom's kitchen are turning out. I'm excited to be back in my comfort zone again.

Two more months. The clock ain't stopping. July will come sooner than I want it to but in a way, I'm ready. I can't wait to soak in my new tub!

a very filling "filler" episode

Lost Spoiler

re-titling it " We're Not Dead Yet!"

I'm going to start from the ending where Sawyer and Hurley were throwing the dirt into Nikki and Paolo's grave. They showed the opening scene again where Nikki fell onto the ground and told Sawyer and Hurley that she was paralyzed, but this time the words did not sound like "Plywood". But too late, they were already buried alive!

Nikki and Paolo were cons just like Sawyer. Only Nikki was more selfish, and Paolo only wants to keep her his. They killed an old man to steal his diamonds which of course they lost when their plane crashed. Paolo found it but did not tell Nikki because he was afraid to lose her But as the cliche goes, you can't keep a secret forever. When Nikki found out, she led Paolo into the jungle, had one of Arzt's Medusa spiders bite him to paralyze him for at least 8 hours Maybe so she can get enough time to hide them diamonds. In the process however, she got bit herself, however managed to bury the diamonds and run to the beach for help before paralysis finally took over. She told them she's paralyzed but the words were unintelligible. They all thought they were both dead. They actually took time to finally bury them but not enough for the paralysis to wear off.


ok, ok.....Who the hell are Nikki and Paolo? Nikki was that girl who yelped when the one-eyed "other" suddenly appeared on one of the screens on the hatch they discovered. Paolo was the guy who flushed the toilet....only he wasn't really using the john....he was actually retrieving the diamonds from the toilet tank. You don't remember him? maybe this will remind you.... http://image.guardian.co.uk/sys-images/Film/Pix/pictures/2007/03/13/3001.jpg

$8m worth of diamonds.....worthless
Sawyer's face when Sun slapped him....priceless!

30cc's Nyquil, 2 tabs Motrin and left-over pizza

I'm starting to believe Ronnie when she says I'm always sick. I denied it several times but now that I'm suffering from my 2nd bout of flu for the year, just when Flu season has been declared over, I'm starting to doubt my conviction.

Friday: I thought it was just allergies when I woke up with a sore throat and a headache. I managed to survive the day and still had a little energy left to join my amigas for dinner at Papacito's. But I knew that was it for me, no dancing, not even with Marissa's promise that a shot or two of tequila would make things better.

Saturday, 4am: I woke because my nose was clogged and I was having chills even under my comforter. (take note, the thermostat's set at 75F). I thought to myself "Darn, I'm officially sick again!". Another dose of nyquil and motrin and I went back to sleep. Woke up 6 hours after with the same symptoms. I hate being sick.

Saturday pm: I finally dragged myself out of my bed and into the couch. Coffee was all I wanted but Grace had cooked some sour meat soup (Sinigang is what I meant) so I had some of that. Exactly what my mom would have prepared for me. I miss my mom.....*sob*

Sunday 8am: No change to how I feel. I thought about tomorrow...Monday...I have to go to work. At the rate I'm feeling, I don't think I can. But we'll see.

For now, let me eat my left-over pizza so I can take something to make me feel better.

Mig Ayesa Rocks!



My eyes were puffy and my nose was congested from da*n allergies. But that did not stop me from seeing Mig's show at the Hardrock.


Mig was awesome! Made me remember why I voted for him week after week during his Rockstar INXS stint, aside from him being Filipino, of course. It was an intimate show and he sang mostly from his album, some remakes and originals. He gave away sample cd's which I'm also uploading here so that y'all can listen to it.



bringing back my blogspot entry (Sept 16, 2005) "Yet another different note.......MiG Ayesa, the Australia-based Filipino is one of the three finalists for the reality tv show "Rockstar: INXS". Last Wednesday was the very first time ever that he was on the bottom 3 and got to sing an INXS song for the elimination. He was great. And that camel (colored) leather pants? My goodness! I think maybe he shares his wife's clothes, they're all too sexy! Well, if he can get away with it, that's not too bad, right???? Tuesday's definitely a stay at home day , that's D-day! I'll be happy if either MiG or Marty wins. JD???? not while I can still remember how he murdered "We are the Champions"!"

Hah! I told you I was a fan from way back then. And JD won, BTW. But that's ok. As Mig himself said, if he won, then he wouldn't be in San Antonio touring. Blessing in disguise.

Mig has an album coming up in April. And I'm definitely buying!
