WOOH BUSY WOOH

Sorry I haven't been blogging as much as I should. I've been preparing and gone through Philippine Model United Nations Week. Basically, it's a simulation of a real United Nations: we're all divided into different committess, each of us representing a country and all we do is talk, debate, talk, debate until we come up with resolution papers to be presented at the final assembly regarding current international concerns or issues.

So this is the second time I've attended the simulation and it still confirms that I'm really not cut out to be a diplomat in the future because I REALLY hate anything that requires a lot of talking and debating and sitting around trying not to get on each other's nerves. Yes, it's romantic that we're all for international peace but reality is diplomacy is just a graceful way of protecting your country's interest while trying to appear- I dunno- unhypocritical?


***************************************

Also, I did the darndest thing last week.

Wapwap texted me: So are you game for Komikon (national Comic Convention usually held somewhere in Manila) tomorrow?
Me: Dunno yet. I'm kinda broke.
....
Me: Wait, is the author of the graphic novel "Elmer" gonna be there?
Wapwap: Of course!
Me: Hold a sec.

I text Hottie: Hey, can I borrow your copy of Elmer tomorrow?
Hottie: Sure! Just tell me what time.

To make a loooong story short, Hottie suspected nothing as he lent me his copy of Elmer the next day.  I went to Pasig, met up with Wapwap there at Komikon, looked for the author (who is also recognized abroad as well), and have him autograph it.

 When I gave Hottie back his newly-autographed copy of Elmer, he didn't want to believe me at first! It was a good thing my friend Wapwap took a picture of the author signing his copy. I uploaded it on his fb wall and he was like "WOW!"

I'm totally convinced I'd make a fabulous girlfriend for anyone.

Awkward Turtle

New Living Conditions and Boys.

Best friend's boyfriend moved back into our apartment. Now, I don't know what to do. I mean, I'm not that awkward about it... But, they are in a relationship and I'm the third wheel and we're living in a studio apartment so things are crowded and also, he brought his "plants" aka weed and is growing it in a big ass tent in our bedroom and now they're smoking some and our place smells like weed. Lol.

I wonder how this new living condition's going to be...

Blue Fox, well... I still miss him. And tomorrow's Thanksgiving, I'm thinknig of sending him something.

And... I have two more dates and it's not with Licorice. I have one date with a nice fellow named Jell-O and Ravioli.

But Jell-O finally opened his feelings and said that he'd like to be with me... Sigh.

"I don't know how you can be mad cute, pretty, gorgeous, smart, independent, have good cooking skills and still be single like damn. Like, seriously? Do you think I got a chance? I know you're out of my league but still... I think if you gave me the chance and all, I'll work extra hard for it. I believe you're worth fighting for..."

Oh, Blue Fox. I wish you knew how many guys are trying to cop me right now...

Effing come back you jerk-y a-hole! T_T

Otter Cruz Is At It Again.

Uh-oh, my cousin Otter Cruz is at it again... Look what he said!

"WANTED: A young lady to keep this guy warm at night. Heat is expensive, I don't like wearing sweats, I refuse to hold my dog, and alcohol doesn't warm me up. Non-PYTs need not apply.

Also, out of towners are welcome...just not for too long."

LOL. Sigh. Why do my cousins write such dorky things?

More and more jobs. Sigh.

So, Farmer Brothers ran out of applications. Sigh. I'll try again next week or something.

Today, I went to University Ave./University Village to check out other places that I haven't tried yet. Sigh. I really need something right now... I need money.

Jack In The Box
Bakers
K-Mart
Rubios
Yoshinoya
FatBurger

Subway
Starbucks
Juice It Up

Sushiya

Mediterranean Palace

Jobs, jobs and more jobs.

Yesterday was a productive day, I went out to find a job. I walked around and tried to apply, all the little stores that I tried were not hiring because since they're a small business, they don't need a lot of people.

So I dropped by Bakers (a fast food place) and Jack In The Box and asked for an application. I filled it out and went on to the next place~ I tried Subway and Starbucks but they all said that you need to do it online. K-Mart does that too... I even tried Stater Brothers (a grocery store) but they said that when they hire, they will post up a sign and you get an interview on the spot but they aren't looking for anyone at the moment. Sigh.

So today, I'll go to K-Mart and do a computer application at the store. And then I'll come home and apply for Subway and Starbucks.

After leaving Stater Brothers with honey, sesame seeds and pumpkin pie, I come home and Emily's still studying. And as a lovely best friend of 15 years, I decided to make dinner again. This time: Korean dinner! I've made her grilled salmon with lemon-herb wild rice and this time, I made her bulgogi-lettuce wraps. She loved it! I'm so happy.

TAKE THAT, BLUE FOX. I CAN COOK. Now, schedule our cooking competition.

Actually, I should be getting ready to look for more jobs. I'll try K-Mart and Farmer Brothers. Hahahaha.

Talk to you later!

It Rings In My Ears All The Time.

Kitty: You and Blue Fox. I knew it. I so knew it~ I knew you two would be perfect with each other, I just knew it. It was just in a matter of time... I deserve a pat on the back~ Mmm, Mrs. Blue Fox. That has a really nice ring to it, don't you think?

Sometimes, when you leave for your classes and all the roommates are gone, I slip into your Army ACU's and think about all the things that you wanted us to do in our lives, thinking about all the things you said about us having babies, how much you love and care for me, how you love that I'm now in your life, you being there for me 'always and forever' and how you'll always be by my side. I remember all the promises that I've made and you know that I'd always keep it. You know that I'll always be here for you no matter what...

People had really high hopes and knew that we were perfect for each other... Well, Blue Fox and I already knew that but it was nice to know that people thought so too.

As much as I have Licorice around, I still want Blue Fox. Licorice and I talk almost every day, especially before we sleep but before I fall asleep, I'm thinking about Blue Fox. I wake up to the thought of him and I sleep with the thought of him... As sad as some people say it is, I'm still waiting. I know a lot of people don't want me to and want me to move on even with doubts, I'm still waiting. I'm keeping myself busy by finding a job, being around Emily and Astro and having company such as Licorice but in my heart, I'm still waiting.

"Don't call or text until I do..." is the only thing that's keeping me going. Unless he's a complete fob, he won't know what this means but since he's obviously not, it'll happen... Eventually. Sigh, I don't know.

Emily: I really do have a lot of faith in you and Blue Fox, I really do!

Sigh. I'm still waiting...
