playing favorites
Today I came to realize that I have so many likes and loves. It didn’t occur to me before I started scanning the pictures I have taken. So this entry is all about my top (_) favorites, and the reason/s behind it. and yeah, there's SURELY more to come...
Exhibit 1: Random pictures
this was taken last June 23, 2008 around 7:30 am.
look what typhoon Frank did to our College Plaza :(
i love taking random pictures! random pictures always tell stories, unpredictable stories for that matter...
Exhibit 2: Chocolates are my drugs! ^_-
Ferro rocher, anyone?
(thanks Jay)i am genetically engineered to be addicted to chocolates. and I'll bet 90% (of whatever i have) I'm going to die of diabetes mellitus. well what can i do, i cant help it. i am conditioned to it just like Pavlov conditioned the dog to the ringing of a bell. hahaha.. i know i exaggerate a bit on that part. well what can i say? hmmm.. if I'm going to enumerate the reasons why i love chocolates my top ten reasons would be:
10. Better than committing crimes
(need i say more?)
9. Always more at the store
(so true! anywhere and everywhere!)
8. Makes my mouth happy
(..and waters)
7. Something fun to do alone
(hmmmm.. and much better to be done alone.. heheheh )
6. Cheaper than Prozac
(i am not a fan of prohibited drugs, so when i want to get HIGH, i chomp my sugars)
5. Surprise centers
(there are always surprises in every chocolate)
4. Hides easily in my pockets
(...nobody will know i have one and i dont intend to share.. LOL)
3. Two words - mood swings
(i hope MEN will read this!)
2. Comes in pretty boxes
(sooo true! and im crazy enough to collect it)
1. BEING ADDICTED WONT GET YOU ARRESTED!
(i know you agree with this..)
Exhibit 3: something new..
"Miss Demeanor"
you see i am the number one of the word RANDOM. i always get excited about learning something new. my maturity is that of a 5-year-old. the fascination over novel things is surely unsuitable for my age. i wont take it against you if you think its a disadvantage when facing life's greatest battles but you see, this craving for something new has become a motivation to enjoy school. being carefree isnt that bad after all.
Exhibit 4: Long journey
"ang dalan pakadto sa baybay"
i am a WanderWoman. i take to the heart the quote life is a joruney, not a destination. i am laidback and low-key, i like to take my time and savor each moment. if that means taking the long way to get somewhere, ill do it, especially if its packed with plenty of things to see along the way.
Exhibit 5: The I-love P.S. I Love You Series (the Book)
that book who stole my heart
(and money too! i spent all my allowance for this!)
ooooohh!! i really really love this book (even though i have not yet finished reading it!). i just love everything about it. there is something about its plot and characters that made me love the book even if it has the usual, tragic-ending story. i could relate to Holly (the main character of the novel). we have the same childish attitude and for sure we have the same type of guy: understanding, patient, adventurous and mature. the type of guy who would cater and even control the mood swings and tantrums.
Exhibit 6: The I-love P.S. I Love You Series (the Movie)
Gerard Butler (my ultimate crush) with Hilary Swank
hmmmm.. its the adaptation of the book. i fell in love with this one first before the book. i watched this film together with my sister. and in the whole duration of the film, i was either laughing or crying, crazy huh? although there are parts of the book that has been altered, like adding a new character, i can still say that the film director did justice to the product of art of ms. Cecilia Ahern. and oh! how i daydreamed for a few weeks to mean my Gerard Butler and my Jeffrey Dean Morgan or my own "Irish" men!
Exhibit 7: The I-love P.S. I Love You Series (the Song)
curious why i this song is on the exhibit? here's a copy of the lyrics
I Love You Till the End
by: the Pogues
I just want to see you
When you're all alone
I just want to catch you if I can
I just want to be there
When the morning light explodes
On your face it radiates
I can't escape
I love you 'till the end
I just want to tell you nothing
You don't want to hear
All I want is for you to say
Why don't you just take me
Where I've never been before
I know you want to hear me
Catch my breath
I love you 'till the end
I just want to be there
When we're caught in the rain
I just want to see you laugh not cry
I just want to feel you
When the night puts on it's cloak
I'm lost for words don't tell me
All I can say
I love you 'till the end 
isnt it romantic? hopefully i can find a guy who will sing this song to me on our wedding! know anyone? tell him to send an application letter, curriculum vitae, and full body shot picture and mail it to me immediately! LOL
Exhibit 8: Crowning Glory
crowns, anyone?
this shirt will always remind me of my friends from Nanyang, Singapore.. how i miss being called "Princess". i miss you guys and i love you all.. i cant express what i really feel inside in this blog.. reminiscing the moments with you guys is hard to do at this moment... i dont want another flash flood in Philippines! hahahah... but really.. i do miss you all and you will always have this space in my heart.
Exhibit 9: Rabbit's Foot
Wabby and Rabby
My ever comfy bedroom slippers! they ease my tired, calloused feet everyday. the mere thought that you have to wear heels (mine is 3 inches) 4x a week is already tiring.. my wabby and my rabby are my "foot spa".
Exhibit 10: From A to ZzZzZs
future teacher?
who doesnt like restoring energy? i dont think a person like that exist. so just like now after this, i cant wait to make love WITH my bed.. take note: i said WITH not IN. two phrases conveys different meanings. the level of explicity really differs. Sleep is one of my favorite hobby. i get to face my nightmares bravely, all alone and i get to dream about everything i want plus my body rest from whole day of thinking and walking back and fro. loving sleep isnt a crime, fellow, but oversleeping is.
... and since i dont want to oversleep tomorrow, i end my blog entry for this day. i hope i didnt intimidate you (whoever you are! ^_^) in someways after al the things that i have shared. how about you? can you share to me what are your top 10 favorites? mail me, i'd like to hear it!
ta-ta for now!
Of love and other demons,
Cathie
