Chinky

Tips for a Hassle-Free Chinese Visa Application:

1. Complete your documents.
2. Go to the embassy yourself. (Unless you have a relative of the same last name or company messenger who can submit the requirements for you)
3. Fill up your passport's back page.
4. Photocopy all documents.
5. Embassy is open 9-11 AM. Get your number early. They won't accommodate you in the afternoon.

*UPDATED REQUIREMENTS HERE*

Haha. Here's the map going to Chinese embassy in Gil Puyat, Makati. It's across Mapua Institute of Technology.

Fly me to the moon

The weekend that was a little unplanned, and was almost cancelled, save for the pestering of some people to make it happen, and that people would be me. :D Okay, my ramblings are now hard to comprehend. Anyway, it was the weekend of everything that flies... Except balloons. Haha. I'll get into details later. In the meantime, I'll share pictures of the festivities at Clark Pampanga.

Yeye bought us the tickets in SM Megamall on a Thursday. A little worried because of the procrastination haha. Good thing he supposedly "charmed" Ate Ticketer, she waited for him for the payment. *wink* Let's use that charm more often shall we? We barely see it. I kid. :p

pisay HOHOL

HOHOL - a modern term used to describe a gathering of a group of friends - in one setting, laughing, bickering, catching up, and gossiping. HOHOL - that's Hang Out Hang Out Lang, for you. :)

god's represent

A few batches of Pisay Davao gathered last Friday at For the Road. And it was pretty fun seeing all those familiar familiar faces after such a long time. Ates and Kuyas and bunsos. Haha. :) I hope for more get-togethers and less whiplashes! :) Wag na masyado tumagay ng Vodka na puno ang shotglass. :))

a learning experience.

From RB's formspring

Question: Anong magandang pampalubag loob para sa nawalan ng pera nung malasing?
Answer:  buti pera lang nawala sayo, e kung ang puso mo


To which i finally concluded. RB is a genius. :)


I've always kidded about a recent past being a learning experience. And apparently, it's true. My request for a Government Clearance, save for the very long queue lines, had gone off without a hitch because of tips I picked up from that event of my life. Now I'm cleared for travel abroad! Hooray no more DOST bond! Haha. Back to topic. So yes, i believed, it's easier to lose money than to lose your heart.


But due to the incident yesterday,I've changed my mind. I'd rather lose my heart than to lose Peeta! Darn. I almost lost Peeta because of my utter carelessness. From now on, i know for eternity, God loves me. Thank you Lord for keeping Peeta safe.

nomb! - i get it!

Alot is telling me, I care too much for people who does not care about me.

Like for instance, I was very worried that a teammate is leaving First Gen, but he refuses to answer my queries.

"You need to care less about people. If they don't want to tell you, learn to be ok with it!"

Ok, another WOW (words of wisdom) from Alot.

I should learn NOMB... That's - none of my business!

Haha. Signing out.. Singin' ♫♪ oh yeah! life goes on! ♫♪

I would give up forever to....

be washed out again!

Today is Feb 2 2012. One year and three hundred fifty two days ago.. Or let's simplify that. Seven hundred sixteen days ago. To the hour. Ha, i kid. :) Let's move on.

Capsize!

Feb 14, 2010. We tried our hands at White Water Rafting. We were in CDO for a classmate's wedding. So, since we don't often travel to CDO, we giddily signed up with Red Rafts for a day of basking under the Cagayan de Oro sun, paddling with the tides, humming to ourselves.

Hey You've Got to Hide Your Love Away

Here I stand head in hand
Turn my face to the wall...

Who doesn't love The Beatles, right?

Ever since watching Nowhere Boy, my interest in them deepened. And I listened to them, mostly because I'm a music rat. And because, as most of us would agree, we can relate.

How can I even try? I can never win.


Darn. Bulls eye.


Love will find a way.

But I was told, albeit candidly... Love will find a way. Kung di gumawa ng paraan, eh di hindi ka love! Sorry!

So, my newest mantra, as a Ramon Bautista follower, believer, and greatest admirer: Such is life..


Signing out! :)

Live a happy life, folks! :)

In earnest, I pray: that everyone would live a happy life, without stamping on anyone. Without hurting anyone. And live the life, worthy to be told to your grand kids.
I pray for me. I pray for you.
