thoughts on a sleepless night: part neuf

... Kkot boda Namja (Boys Over Flowers), the Korean Version of Hana Yori Dango has finally ended. i still couldn't get enough of it so i've been watching reruns these past few days. the Korean F4 is love!!! lol.

... aside from watching Kkot boda Namja, i also watched Zettai Kareshi (Absolute Boyfriend). it is a live action series based from the manga written by Yuu Watase. jeez. i couldn't believe that i cried over Tenjo Night when i have been rooting for Asamoto Soshi. :P

... the theme song of Zettai Kareshi (Okaeri by Ayaka) has been singing in my head all day so i downloaded it.

... as usual, i've been busy playing different wars and games in Facebook.

... i haven't blogged about F1 coz i feel lazy. the Ferrari team doesn't have points yet coz Kimi and Massa aren't doing well. i don't care. haha. i've been rooting for Nico Rosberg and Sebastian Vettel.

... early this year, i saw an F1 calendar with 3 of my favorite drivers - Kimi, Lewis, and Nico on the cover. i didn't buy it coz i didn't have enough money that time. damn.

... one of the TV shows i watch, Greek, is back.

... David Cook and David Archuleta will have a concert here on May 16. i'm still pondering on whether i'll watch or not.

... i have been reading mangas and watching Asian dramas since the week started so i haven't organized some of my stuff yet.

... i'm looking forward to my niece's first ballet recital next week.

... i am totally crushing on Kim Bum, Kim Hyun Joong, and Mizushima Hiro!

... i wish that Lil would be the next one eliminated in American Idol 8.

... Paulo Coelho has a new book. i haven't bought any of his book since i got disappointed over The Zahir (which i haven't finished reading) and Eleven Minutes.

... i'm starting to like Adam Lambert. i like his rendition of Mad World.

... i've been sleeping really late this week. it has been a long time since i slept this late.

that's all for now.

weird encounter

1 comments
i was very bored yesterday so i went to Makati to window shop in Greenbelt, Landmark, Glorietta, and SM. when i went to the ladies' room in Landmark (the one near the shoes department), a lady suddenly talked to me. we were in front of the mirror fixing ourselves. she asked me if i'm a Filipino. i told her that i am. then she introduced herself to me. she said that she's a Thai and she's from Bangkok. she's here in the Philippines to open a "bisnet". i think she means "business" though i didn't correct her. i just listened to what she was saying. she's looking for someone who could speak English well and could help her with her "bisnet." i just said okay and nodded my head while powdering my face. she then got her box of calling cards and gave me one. i accepted it and put it in my bag. i didn't ask questions about her "bisnet" because i'm not interested. i could help her with the English thing, but i have more important things to do. she then got her pen and paper and asked me for my number. i asked her why. her friend, also a Thai, suddenly appeared on the other side of me and told me that it's okay so that i could have new friends. ow-kay. i don't give my numbers to strangers so i told them that i'm a college student and my parents forbid me from giving my number to strangers. i apologized then immediately left the restroom.

i don't know why, but for some reason, i am always approached by foreigners (Indians, Koreans, Japanese). those people have only one question to me:

how do i go to _____?
where is _____ located?

their question is always about directions. i sometimes ask myself if i look like a map for them to ask me for directions. but the incident yesterday was something i didn't expect. i thought that the Thai lady would ask me how to go to Greenbelt or where is a particular store located. she must have been really desperate for her to talk to me and try to do "bisnet" with me. i didn't throw the calling card she gave me. i'll put it in my journal as a remembrance of my weird encounter.

just updating...

- i haven't updated this blog for a long time because i was busy with work. there were lots of activities in school last February and March. they were tiring but fun.

- i'm on vacation right now. i'll be back in school after the Holy Week in time for our school's summer program. i'm assigned to do Reading tutorials. aside from that, i'll help out in the preparations for the opening of the grade school. i will no longer handle the Nursery class because i got transferred in the grade school department. i am both nervous and excited about this. it's going to be a whole new adventure for me. but whatever happens, i am positive that i'll survive.

- i've been preoccupied with updating my book blog. i've been reading a lot these past few weeks and writing book reviews in my book blog. i also attended different book discussions. i'm trying to catch up on my reading. i'm still not halfway through because there are still a lot of unread books in my room. hopefully, i'll be able to read at least half of them this summer.

- last Sunday, i was really happy because F1 is back. i'll be posting a blog entry about it one of these days. :)

- i no longer have a Friendster account. i cancelled it last February. totally no regrets.

that's all for now. be back soon. :)
