perfect starry nights. sweet dreams. moon beams. a love that's warm. and bright.

Begin the new year countdown with a family dinner and talk about anything while exchanging jokes. Shift topic to serious business and refrain from cracking silly lines lest the dinner scene look like something straight out of a sitcom. When the clock strikes eleven, start piling up Bulacan merchandise and check out which ones light the sky best. Make an inventory of the nicest fireworks display to get for next year. Stare in awe at the pyro light show while covering your mouth and nose unless you want black snot. Start the countdown and toast to a good year.

Proceed with the poker game that your baby brother is winning and bore yourself to tears with checks, folds and raises because you are too pathetic to learn the game by heart. Decide that it's time to take your newly acquired High School Musical 2 DVD [the one you elbowed your kuya to get] to the test and burn the midnight oil watching clips with Zac Efron on it. Smile like a grade schooler when you see how much footages the DVD has of him. Swoon and wipe the laway away.

Put on a Friends marathon after seeing all possible antics Zac could have made and convince yourself that it is time to grow up. Down the half-filled beer glass you put off while watching HSM2 and start enjoying the marathon. Love Joey, Chandler, Ross, Rachel, Monica and Phoebe more.

Realize it's almost five in the morning and have your cousins drive you home. Sleep in heavenly peace. Thank God from whom all blessings flow.

Wake up at ten am to a sleeping household and cringe at the state your room is in. Find your way to the door and wonder where your floor went. Take up the courage to get a broom and finally sort out bags and shoes, clothes, kikay stuff, scarves and all kinds of trash into a neat pile. When you can finally determine the patterns of your floor tile, add finishing touches and put the things neatly away.

Plan a rendezvous with your college dorm mate and call the mall to see if they're open. Bring your coffee-stained HP7 and present it to her as a gift. Wait a while before she gets to the meeting place and check out the toy store in the meantime. Get yourself that planner you've been meaning to have and take a long time agonizing between the purple fluff, the purple denim or the black sparkly leather. Choose the purple fluff and admire your new planner.

Grab coffee at the Green Lady and talk for hours when your much-missed dorm mate comes. Walk, talk and have a bookstore visit. Stay at the store for a long time and read through titles. Buy a cosmo publication because that's all the material you can handle at this point. Wonder why you always end up buying a short novel from summit after hanging out in a bookstore.

Head home and pester her to take you to Baguio with her. Pretend-mope and watch her roll her eyes.

Get online as soon as you land home and have your cyber buddies fill you in on yet another grammar nazi mission. Succeed at the nazi-ing. Contain strong disdain toward neighbors who decide this is the best time to make firecracker noises and set off car alarms. Scream through the window and tell them to get a life when you can't control your temper. Have people at the house pacify you and tell you that you had better stop calling your neighbors stupid. It is the new year after all.

Have a great 2008 one and all! Here's hoping that you started off the year nicely. Toodles

grabe, kinakarma na 'ko.

kahapon ko lang nalaman na ang spelling pala ng fuchsia ay ganyan at hindi fuschia na alam ko since grade one. all those years mehn, all those years...

so much for being a grammar/spelling nazi.

tapos eto pa, sa pagmamaganda ko kagabi sabi ko sa kausap ko sa phone, hello, good ebning.

salbahe ka kasi.

You Are Very Happy

Your life is totally together, and you enjoy every day. And you don't need a quiz to tell you that! You know how to find pleasure in the little things... And even when life isn't so great, you have a good sense of perspective.

even if i can't spell fuchsia. hahaha.

You Should Rule Mercury

Close to sun, Mercury has very long days - and is rarely visible to the rest of the solar system. You are perfect to rule Mercury, because you live for the present - and can truly enjoy a day that goes on forever. Like Mercury, you are quick and elusive. Your wit is outstanding, and you can win any verbal sparring match. Some people see you as superficial, but in truth, you just play many roles and have many interests. A great manipulator, you usually get what you want from people. And they're happy to give it to you.

What Kind of Reader Are You? Your Result: Obsessive-Compulsive Bookworm You're probably in the final stages of a Ph.D. or otherwise finding a way to make your living out of reading. You are one of the literati. Other people's grammatical mistakes make you insane.
Dedicated Reader
Literate Good Citizen
Book Snob
Non-Reader
Fad Reader

Between this and being a grammar nazi... no wonder not a lot of people like me.
hahahaha.
I will have to explain myself one of these days. Or not.
