my song of the moment

Someday
by nickelback

How the hell did we wind up like this
Why weren't we able
To see the signs that we missed
And try to turn the tables

I wish you'd unclench your fists
And unpack your suitcase
Lately there's been too much of this
Dont think its too late

Nothin's wrong
just as long as you
know that someday I will

Someday, somehow
gonna make it allright
but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
Someday, somehow
gonna make it allright
but not right now
I know you're wondering when

Well i hoped that
since we're here anyway
We could end up saying
Things we've always needed to say
So we could end up stringing
Now the story's played out like this
Just like a paperback novel
Lets rewrite an ending
that fits
Instead of a hollywood horror

Nothin's wrong
just as long as
you know that someday I will

Someday, somehow
gonna make it allright
but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
Someday, somehow
gonna make it allright
but not right now
I know you're
wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)

hooked on you

I must confess that you got me hooked. When I discovered your existence, I have been addicted ever since. Like a moth to a flame, you got me mesmerized, hanging on every scene that unfolds before my very eyes. I could not believe that I have waited this long to appreciate another tv series! Lest you mistake this entry on a different topic, let me clarify that I am merely referring to the hottest tv show of the moment, Lost. Seriously, I find myself in tenterhooks whenever I watch this show. I savor every episode. It's my favorite show at the moment. Gawd! I can't wait for the next episode! I even surfed the website for advance reading of future episodes. I know it's a spoiler but I've only cheated for like, a few advance episodes. The best part of this show is the gorgeous hunks! I mean, cute guys in one show?! C'mon, you gotta be kidding me! I am loving it!

Reminder to self : Must get that book, The Bad Twin which is written by a fictional character based from the series...

i dream of lindsay

I had a brief taste of fame the other night when I dreamt that I was friends with paparazzi-magnet lindsay lohan. So what's it like to be lindsay's friend? It wasn't really grand. If you're the type to party, divulge secrets and pull pranks, then that's what it is. But it was fun to be part of a hollywood crowd even for just a nonasecond. It was kinda cool, reminiscent of alicia silverstone's Clueless days ~ sans the blonde locks. At least, it was better than being friends with the dumb bimbo jessica simpson... ugh!

melt with you

i could list a lot of things to be bitchy about these days, things that are mostly irrelevant and condescending. But mostly, I am pissed about the humid weather. Yesterday was no exception. I left the office early in the afternoon and the sun was beating down on me. It was punishing, I tell you! So I went to my usual route after work ~ meaning, I had to pass glorietta. Since it was a sunday, the mall was packed. Every conceivable human types were all there basking in the coolness of the airconditioned mall. Mind you, there wasn't any sale going on whatsoever. But the mere fact that MI:3 has just opened that means the cinemas were jampacked as well for this big budget movie.

I was able to watch the movie already, and since I am aware of the fact that it was directed by JJ Abrams (creator of tv series Alias and Lost), I somehow recognized some familiarity in the execution of some scenes. At some point in the movie, the background music was awfully familiar-sounding. To summarize, it made me feel like I was watching a great episode of Alias on the big screen. In fact, some cast members from the said series was on the movie as extras. What do you expect, even one of the female cast was an alumni of Felicity, another series from JJ Abrams.

So anyway, back to my original story, I was bumping into a lot of people at the mall yesterday. Turned out there was also a sort of story-telling session for kids in the activity area. lots of kids were loitering around chasing one another, and that made me irritable as well since it hampers my progress to get home in the shortest possible time. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against kids per se but thrusting them into the arena of adults is kinda annoying. I mean, kids should be playing in parks, gardens or picnic groves ~ not in the middle of the mall where accidents are bound to happen. Of course, it would be nearly impossible since this country lacks parks or lush recreational areas where kids can just run around all day in the vast greenery. Besides, majority of this country's population seems to treat mall-hopping/mall-lounging as a past-time activity. I can't really blame all these people, they had nowhere else to go.

Some girls my age already have kids of their own, but I don't feel my maternal instincts kicking in yet. I don't feel inclined to get married or get pregnant at the moment. I'm not really one of those women who gush whenever they see a baby. Sure, they're cute and cuddly, but that's all there is to it. I am not overwhelmed with emotions when I see one. To me, they're just kids : playful at times, annoying when they're kicking and screaming. My throat was so dry from the heat when I got home ~ merely surviving the maddening crowd at the mall.

burn baby burn

summer is not my favorite time of the year. The idea of staying under the scorching sun even for a fraction of a minute is not exactly sexy-- especially to your exposed skin. Hitting the beach? Forget it! Too crowded already, no matter where you go. Personally, I would like to go to the beach during off-season, when it's almost deserted. I want the ocean all to myself-- not that I have excellent swimming skills to boast of, but you know, you don't have to deal with people peeing in the water. Gross, I know. The hot weather also makes me irritable, like you wanna pick a fight with anyone. I could become a mean beyotch for no reason.
