Yesterday was my birthday! *weeeeeeeeee* haha it was one of the best birthdays I have everrRRrrr had!

First, a friend of mine who I knew since college {& who also happens to be my colleague at work} surprised me with gorgeous flowers and a yummy birthday cake from Miss J’s at work. I didnt see it coming at aaall! the office boy thought the flowers were for the girl who sits next to my cube and when I saw them I was like awww those are so pretty LOL I never thought they could be for me =P and then a few minutes later they all gathered in my cube with the cake and everything >_< I was so touched by the gesture. Anyways we cut the cake and sent out pieces to everyone in the department. Have a looksie:

arent they lovely? they’re in my favorite colors.. and I adore lillies! anyways, later on I spent a full day with my cousins and sister. We went out to have lunch and later saw “I Am Legend” at the movies. The movie was great I personally liked it but there were some scenes in there that were so freaky and scary =s I guess thats why things got a little clumsy in the end.. cuz my sister spilled the nachos on my cousin and then my other cousin fell FACE ON the stairs LOL thankfully the movie had ended and everyone left so no one saw what happened but gaaaaaaah I cracked up till my tummy hurt xD Later we did a little shopping and headed back home DRAINED. Yep, fun times! haha

Yes, I got gifts! I got a watch from my mother, a super super awesome makeup holder for my MAC <3 from my aunt, many perfumes, emails, messages, black satin nailpolish by chanel which I've been lemming for so long but couldnt find cuz its sold out everywhere, aaand I got my neiman marcus package in PERFECT timing~! heres a striptease:

getting there is half the fun ;)

my baby hiding from the rain

fa9Oolee making an appearance =D

*sings* no one else can feel it for you, only you can let it in, no one else, no one else, can speak the words on your lips…:fade out: i love that song! its on the pantene ad and as the intro of (recent obsession) The Hills ;)

Dont you just L-O-V-E the rain?! i personally hate being cold and i dislike the cold weather more than anything but i just love it when it rains. If only we could have rain minus the chilly wind.. that would be perfect! The past few days for me have been filled with new experiences. I had my first driving-in-the-rain experience on my way to work at 6:00 AM the other day, and at first I admit I was so scared because my cars wipers were too slow and it was really dark. But then I felt surprisingly better and more calm. I love the sound of rain. A lot of people think its noisy but not me =) right now Im cozy-ing myself with jackets and socks, drinking my latte.. & typing this of course.

And then I had my first i-got-lost experience LOL it was actually VERY stupid of me >_< I missed the turn to my home =P I cant believe how i missed it! it was right there and I've been through this same route like a billion times for what 10 years of my life?! haha.. I guess my mind was a bit off.. when I passed by it I realized when it was a second too late and I was all CRAP WHAT TO DO NOW!? I was so nervous cuz I've never been lost before. So I just stopped on the right side of the road - or may I say the right side of the BRIDGE! - and called my daddy. He sent me the driver so I could follow back home. I was so scared cuz the cars on my left were too fast and everytime they pass by me my car would shake. Plus I was halfway on the bridge and water was below me so I kept imagining the worst case senarios.. being pushed aside and falling into the sea LOL I can get too paranoid at times.

I've been doing some re-decorating at work for my little cubicle. We moved our offices to another floor and with the new design of the company, there are no partitions anymore! They implemented an open-office design and so.. I dont even think I could call my space a 'cubicle'.. hmmm maybe it could be called a 'cubiclette' =P

oh yeah, my trash can is too cute for trash!

My birthday is super super sooooon! Its on a very strategic day: thursday the 24th! So Im taking it off & then I’d have 1 day + the weekend = 3 days of freedom! yaaay ^_^

Happy neeeewwwwwwww year everyone o kil 3am winto b5air! :D iiits time to roll out the 2008 resolutions!! here goes:

Gain Weight: its almost pointless to consider this a “resolution” because I’ve wanted to gain more pounds ever since I cant even remember. But for me its always a good idea to write/type my goals down because that instantly creates a mental note in my head. I NEED TO REACH MY IDEAL WEIGHT! which is like 10 KGs away. Its just so hard and no one seems to understand my situation. First: I am Anaemic, Second: I have extremely high metabolism and my body burns fat while I’m sitting here right now, Third: my appetite is just as low as my iron. See?

Be Punctual: I guess Im allergic to being on time cuz IM ALWAYS LATE! and that is not something to be proud of. At ZU I once recieved a written attendance warning, and at work I’ve had a lot of attendance violations the past month :( its really unprofessional and I dont want to give a bad impression specially that Im a new hire and need to prove myself in order for them to keep me after my probation period. So this year, I am going to start coming to work on time every single day no matter how late I wake up in the morning.

Start Saving: I need to stop playing around with my money. My savings account needs some love!

Have Enough Sleep: I am really tired of feeling drained in the morning and having to go to bed like 29846 different times a day just so I can catch up and recharge myself. Thats why I decided to stop staying up too late {unless theres something really cool on TV – lol!} and go snuggle up as early as I can.. and that is around 11:30 or 12:00 at night =)

Use Less Products in My Hair: my poor hair went through A LOT! I dyed it, highlighted it, blow dried it {for no reason!}, layered it and snipped it with razors. For the past couple of months it suffered from extreme dryness and a serious case of split ends and frizzes =( so Im slowly starting to grow it out and start over. In that “starting over” process I used endless products without thinking that THAT itself is damaging to the hair. Right now I use shampoo ~ conditioner ~ leave-in conditioner ~ serum. And even that is a lot. By the end of this month Im going to have the ends trimmed one last time and remove all of the remains of the dyed brown hair so hopefully all that time of growing it out was worth it!

Follow a Skin Regimen: I have all there is to have! A cleanser, toner, scrub, moisturizer, eye cream, etc… yet some days I cant bother. Although I LOVE investing into skincare and I love how my skin feels after I take care of it. I dunno… I guess I’ve been lazy. But *hopefully* not anymore.

Finish 50% or more of CAMS: it stands for Competence Assurance Management System and its a program that all graduates must go through in order to become operational employees in 2 years. So yeah, its a big job and needs a lot of hard work but inshallah I’ll work my way through it =)

Hmmm, there are a few more but I’d like to keep those to myself. Its too bad I lost my 2007 resolutions post LoL but I remember saying that I wanna be more social, which I think I’ve been working on pretty well.

BEST WISHES FOR 2008 Y’ALL! <3 <3 <3
