this is my friend’s daughter. they called me up to tell me they have a youtube video and she started singing to me over the phone. <3

contest: send me the cutest youtube video you can find and i will send you an 8 oz bar of my lola blossom soap (don’t matter where on earth you are, as long as you have a box for packages and snail mails!)

i dreamt i was dying. i wasn’t sick or anything like that, it was just like running out of battery juice. i knew i was dying and i wanted johnny next to me. that was all i wanted. my eyes started to get heavy and my vision was slowly disrupted by closing eyelids. /end of dream 1

i dreamt i was about to give birth. my boobs didn’t go big on me though. my belly wasn’t big at all. i just knew i was about to give birth but i didn’t have anything for my baby. no onesies, no socks, not a single baby thing. /end of dream 2

i dreamt there was a new airline carrier to the philippines and it was called “fil-am airlines” haha. /end of dream 3

i woke up today a bit scared. am i dying? am i pregnant? i took an ept. i’m not pregnant.

I can name55

this is so addicting!

i was going to translate it but i changed my mind. Anyway, the mom was thanking God for all the blessings and then after she thanked him (and Amen’d), she said, “let’s go child, i’ll take you to Jollibee (a Filipino version of McDonald’s) and the kid looks up and says “thank you”

i like tv ads that touch my heart like that. lately i’ve been down and i haven’t really thought of anything to be thankful for but now that i think about it, i’m thankful i’m alive, i’m thankful i found J who has been tolerant of my katarayan.

Thank you po.

yesteday, J & I took part in a fund-raising boutique. although the promoter meant well, we had a pretty bad experience. our table was setup way back in a corner behind a tree and a couple other vendors. we had no traffic at all. so we packed up early and left. i’m looking into selling my soap at farmer’s markets around the area. so fingers crossed; here’s to hoping my soap sale goes up.

in other news, i had a 2nd interview for buffalo exchange fullerton the other day and it was a bit discouraging. After the interview they told me that there’s a 3rd. it’s unheard of!! i’ve never been to 3 interviews for a job ever! that was the discouraging part but i still hope to hear from them because i need money to fund the soap biz and to feed 2 hungry mouths. haha, make that three including J.

Watched the movie last night with J and some of my brother’s buddies. It was ok, a bit disappointing for me (I will not expound because I don’t want to ruin it for someone else who might want to see it.) The kung fu scenes were awesome. Jacky Chan was my favorite because i have never seen him act like that in a long time

not that anyone noticed. (fishing)

i have been out and about (sorta). mostly trying to shed some pounds for my sister’s wedding. so far i’ve lost 4 lbs since i started (1 week). i’ve somehow reconnected with someone i went to gradeschool with and she doesn’t really remember much of me. it’s a bit heartbreaking but there are a few people from the past who’s done the same and i had the faintest idea who they were. anyway, caroline lives in Georgia now and she’s asked me for a pricelist for my soap. she’s gonna try and sell it at the Farmers’ Market in May.

On the 23rd, I have a fundraiser to do with this Senior Living Center. Hopefully, I get enough exposure from it.

I have a job interview today. Hope i get the job. It’s a bit lowpay but it’s more than I’m making now. The only thing is, I wanted to concentrate on the soap making for a bit. I should’ve worked on the whole band thing too. I have been doing Monday nights at this bar but it’s not picking up as much and It’s hard to ask for money from them when I don’t bring much biz there. blah!

anywaym, i have to go and get ready for my interview. pleasant days!!

woke up early for the public sale and i got me 2 tickets! OH YEAH!!

my favorite band in my favorite venue!!

hollywood bowl!!

this is the last band practice before the hollywood show last saturday. song is bel’s original, “i dont know”. the white guy’s my J and i’m the fat kid next to him. <3
