I went out with the family because it was my mother's birthday yesterday. It's always nice to have meals when all the seats are taken by people you oh-so love.

Ok so I'll tell you some things about my mom.
**She's the best at telling funny stories because she's very good at making gestures and imitating people's actions. Sometimes it gets so awkward when she does that but in a very funny way. :)) There's a lot of humor in our family.
**She cooks adobong pusit like every other Friday because she knows we like it.
**She's smart. I'm not saying it because she's my mother, it's because she really is! From politics to sports, she knows a lot. From Gloria Arroyo to Barack Obama, from crosswords to Sudoku, from here to there, and much more. I often ask her random questions and she never fails to answer them. Like earlier when I asked her who did Nadal beat in the 2008 Wimbledon championships. and she yelled back, "Federer!" and then the other day when my sister asked her what Celine Dion's nationality is, and my mom answered back, "Canadian". Yea, simple random questions like those. Sometimes all I can say is, "Bakit alam mo yun?"
**She doesn't stay mad for long.
**She knows the names of my friends.
**She's crazy about Gaby.
**She wants my brother to get fatter.
**She often baby talks. She calls us "Tina and Tisha". I know. Lol
**She's just great.

Yesterday when we were in the car and talking, I heard my mother told my father, "Pag nag-asawa na yung dalawa, wala na, hindi na natin makakasama mga yan."
It's just... It's never gonna happen. Ever. No worries. I promise.

I want to greet you a happy birthday. To the best nanay one could ever have. I dunno if my mother will get to read this because she doesn't go over the internet. But if ever you come across this, I just want you to know that someday, I want to be a mother to my children just like exactly the way you are to me, to us. Thank you and I love you.

Haven't seen the Korean version so I don't really know which is better. I'm not really a fan of subtitles, because it's kind of uncomfortable watching with those. Like you pay attention to the language instead of the pictures. :] I heard the story of both (Ko and Am) are exactly the same. Soemtimes they do "twists" with remakes yea? But Joel said it's just the same except for some details. I know Joel, you didn't tell me, but you told Trina. :]

Anyways, yea it's cute. I don't think a guy who watches Gladiator or Pearl Harbor would like it though. In a shorter way, it's a chick flick! :]
Don't you think it's fun to be with someone who's "sassy"? I mean, yes they would give you tons of reasons why you shouldn't be with them, and give you just a SINGLE reason why you should. BUT that single reason can make it ten thousand times harder for you to leave the person. Aww. Might as well listen to this:
haha.

I would loove to meet:

• The one who would make me get the Police Station sign for him.
• or the one who would take me to trespass at someone else's swimming pool and tell me "At common law a trespass was not criminal unless it was accomplished by violence or breached the peace. So let's fave fun... be quiet... and avoid getting caught."
• The one who would find my home when I have too much to drink and not carry me into his apartment.
• The one who would keep me waiting in a restaurant for hours because his Mom doesn't want him to leave yet.
• The one who would give me Katakataka instead of roses and tell me, "Screw the flower! Throw it and it's gone. But with this, throw it anywhere and it will sprout into a young plant." haha, that's funny. I dunno why I came up with this thing and associating it with "sassy". Hopeless. :))

Now where's my sassy boy?
Or better yet, I'm the one who wants to do these things to/with someone. :]

It's always amazing to meet spontaneous and random people. I'll always believe this. and I'll keep saying this.

Ok, that's it. I just shared some thoughts after watching the movie. I'm a cheeseball. And I could be worse during rainy days. You can tell.

Three In One

*Wrote this 2 days ago, March 31*
Today's Monday, and then Tuesday, then Wednesday, then boom! the Graduation Day. I dunno what I'm really feeling today, is it excitement or is it something heartending. I honestly don't know. Not until the exact day. I intended to write earlier and post it later after few days so I will know the difference about the feeling.

-What I'm feeling now. (Monday -- Three days to graduation day)
I don't think about the graduation day that much, except for what will I look like when I'm wearing my dress on that day. Plus I can't help imagining myself wearing a toga. I'm a little (just a little, and I mean little) excited about tomorrow (the Baccalaureate Mass). After long months, I will have a chance to wear my school uniform again for the last time. I always get this weird feeling whenever I hear the word "last". So strange. Right now, I don't want the graduation day to be the only thing to look forward to. I want to have as many other events after that to keep me busy. I hate it when I'm bored and sad at the same time because it's the worsst. That defines "cry".

-What I'm feeling now. (Tuesday -- Two days to graduation; Baccalaureate Mass)
I'm getting more and more confused on what I'm feeling right now. I dunno if i want to say "I can't wait for tomorrow!" or probably "Can i ask for few more days?" I'm dealing with two EXs here. EXcitement OR EXtension. I don't know. We went to Memay's and I remember my friend Maan saying, "Alam mo simula practice pa lang bilang na ako ng bilang." She's talking about the days left before graduation day. I was doing the same until this very time.
Going to the Baccalaureate Mass. The "peace be with you" part was very nice. I just realized that my father was more vulnerable than what I thought. I kinda knew that my mom would cry, but my father? I wasn't expecting. When we went up to them (parents), my mom was sitting and wiping her tears. I didn't know that my father was doing the same. His eyes were red. Then he wore his sunglasses. I told myself "Umiiyak ang tatay ko". I almost cried, I was close to. But I held it. I could see that they're really proud of me and my sister. Two daughters graduating at the same time? Big time! and by the way, thank God we didn't come dramatically late like we used to during the mass. Whew.
The huling hirit thing at Memay's was great. Why is it always great when I'm with them? :)
I guess that's all for Tuesday.

-What I'm feeling now. (Wednesday -- A day before the graduation)
I'm kinda getting what I'm feeling. Of course I want to graduate, who doesn't. But I don't think I'll like the goodbyes. Remember the two EXs I wrote yesterday? I think I'm more on the EXtension side and a little on the EXcitement side. One day and I'm outta college. Hay. Maybe I just had the greatest years in Lasal with the greatest people that's why it's hard for me to take goodbyes and hear "lasts". I wonder what will it be tomorrow. I'll let you know. I'll save a space on my blogspot for tomorrow and I'll try to sum up the four wonderful years I had in college. (Tomorrow, I will be officially jobless but definitely not friendless)

I'll see you. Sigh sigh sigh. . .

xoxo,
