Happy Hearts!

Dear Stupid Cupid,
You are tricky. That's all. 
Love, Hazel


Love is our heart's wisdom. So for the couples out there, love the one who's beside you more than ever. For the singles (including me) surround yourself with so much love so that you can give more when someone worthy comes along.

Today was fun. We heard the Chinese New Year Mass this morning then planned to eat somewhere in Mandurriao with a close family friend. So we 2 families went on a food trip to who knows where. All Papa knows is that it is located in front of the church. We asked where it was as we got there. Turned out it was an Arroz Caldohan. We went inside but the Arrox caldo is not yet ready until after an hour. So we went to eat at an eatery beside it which serves Nila-ga. Yummy nila-ga.. After which, we waited for the Arroz Caldo to be ready.. I've always loved the simplicity of sidewalk eateries. I cannot understand why some would not dare to step in. The parents were talking earlier that some of their friends would not eat on a place like that. I was in my mini skirt earlier and I feel we were dressed up for the "venue" since we came from church but I did not care. It was fun! Next stop was dessert! We were joking that each venue is a celebration of Chinese New Year, Valentines and the next one will be JJ's birthday. Haha! (And of course, JJ spilled some soup in his uniform.. Clumsy as always)

We went to Mang Inasal Smallville to have some Halo-Halo but it was closed. Off to Nothing But Desserts, instead. We had yummy gelatos. By this time, the students, who were still in uniform from church, are aching to come home. They need to study. I never had this study habit until now, even just half their level. 

This was a fun and unique Valentines and Chinese New Year! Family is indeed love!

And for my second valentine me-time tradition, I watched Chances Are, another feel good old movie I haven't seen. This movie was fun and cute! Robert Downey, Jr. was a charmer! It is a light comedy about a man who died, left his pregnant wife and while in heaven, he asked to be brought back in a different body. A fun, feel good romantic comedy. Watch it! Speaking of movies, I have been watching things lately that involves best friends being in love with each other. I wonder what's up lately. Hmm.. 

Later, we'll go out for a family dinner.. 

Love and Bliss

Listening To: After All by Peter Cetera

servien's 200% rock-out party!!

.

what: Servien Christi Mariae 2008 200% Exclusive Party

.

where: Bourbon Street Red Room, Smallville

.

when: March 21, 2008, 8 PM

.

requirements: be in party mood and have fun, fun, fun!!

.

.

This party was long awaited! And thanks to Marian, who said that we owe this to ourselves and the rest of the party team, we had a blast that night! The party was supposed to be held in El Dorado Pool but unfortunately, our swimming hype was cut off and we had to change venue.

.

If I haven't chatted with Nang Kim on one of our TV Tuesday reviews then I would not have known that the venue changed! haha! I thought she's wrong at first but when I checked my Globe SIM, I have an SMS from Marian informing us that the venue changed! haha! My Globe SIM is just for GCash purposes to that explains why I got the message after a day...haha!

.

That Saturday, I still have classes for Graduate School at 4 PM. I also helped with the checking of papers at the "review center office" (haha). I got home at around 6:30 and I rushed to get dressed since our car is leaving and I just want to be dropped off Bourbon Street since I got no one to go there with me.

.

When I arrived, there were already a few who got there ahead of me. Registration already started and the party mood was set. Soon after, I was going around getting photos and letting people sign my yearbook..(I feel like Melissa Joan Hart in Can't Hardly Wait! haha!)

.

The party was fun! And as always, Bourbon's ribs did not fail me. It's the yummiest ribs I've tasted! Yum yum! We enjoyed cheering for the games! Nona and Isabel were the crowd favorites! haha! They have to shoot the straw from their mouth to the softdrink bottles clutched in the middle of the guys' legs!

.

Sir Palomar also sang! haha! It was supposed to be a duet with Ms. Cormary but she just served as the cheerleader and "the lady by the side".. haha! We were all surprised by her revelation after the song! hahaha! The crowd went wild! Well, somewhere in the singing, there lies a hint of the past..(wink!)

.

And who would forget Nona's spanish singing?! haha! She sang Rihanna's Umbrella in spanish! beat that! The crowd also sang along.."larara larara eeeh..lalala..." Singing without understanding! haha! we just mumbled random words to make it sound spanish! just wave your hands guys! hahaha!

.

This is also the first time since ever that the royalties were complete at one event! With our super separate lives, we can hardly get together just like old times! So then, we missed much of the fun inside since we were just there outside, free from all those noxious cigarette smokes and just chatting our hearts away! Also remembered when videos were shown and a group of American girls were on the video and someone said "Royalty! Royalty!"..Aawww..hehe! We also enjoyed playing with the camera! You can view our party photos here. For the other fun stuffs inside, check out Frankie's blog.

.

Everybody had fun that night! Andrew can't stop dancing! haha! Even if we were outside, I can see his shoulders moving to the beat! haha! Check out Frankie's blog! haha! Oh well, even if we weren't that much that momentous evening, the Servien spirit was still there, especially when we sang our batch song. There were also fireworks, courtesy of Evil Ian thereafter. Cupcakes were made as candles and it just adds to the festive touch! hehe! WE DID IT GUYS!!! Victory is ours! (evil laugh) hehehe!

.

And again, I'm so proud to belong in this family! We all deserve this success! Surely, the rain that had once made us BLUE, turned our meadows to GREEN! (Credits to Don Garcia for this line..Pahulam anay...hehehe! I'll link your poem here if it's done..Promise!) Kudos Servien! Cheers to more success parties in the future!

.

I got home at 2:30 in the morning..Tired but happy! And oh! I love my dress that night! haha! Another online find from Bizteeda.

.

See you when I see you! Love you lots! Missing you already!

.

Love and Bliss Frecklesnoots!

Well, all these digested food must go somewhere nasty, right?! haha! No wonder my butt kisses the toilet almost every after meal yesterday..haha! But I guess all these eating will still not make me get lean into my system...sad...On the brighter side, I get to enjoy delicious sumptous meat and fresh seafoods! On the downside, I feel like my index finger brings back the pain whenever I open Oyster Shells! I can still see the very faint scar that one oyster shell left in my finger one oyster monster eating night! haha! A little labador was almost filled when I had to stop eating since my finger got cut..haha! Oh well..That's life...

.

Love and bliss!

.

And oh! I got another there-should-be-an-S word for you...Scallop! haha! they keep on saying that last night! tsk,tsk!

aligi syndrome

dear aligi, u gave me lightheadedness for 2 days that i devoured your tasteful, juicy goodness out of the crab shells like it was no tomorrow. thank god you and your shell of a company bacame rancid by day 2 or else, i have continued eating you and cause myself an aligi syndrome; a complex feeling of craving not affected by lightheadedness or dizziness.

signed, hazel — someone who will still eat you if available.

hibernation after the long years of hard work is enjoyable! i’m gonna get lean and fat into my system!yahoo!
