not rocking the dock

i really really love onomatopaeic words hence the title..

I haven't really been updating my blog that much.. I guess it's one of those "mid-project" downers..I'm losing excitement..but I fear not cause there's loads of things happening on my end..just not enough time to blog about it :(

well anyway, to all animal lovers out there, come and join me on July 20 (that's a Sunday) at Eastwood City as we pose for PAWS! :) I am a total animal lover, dogs and horses in particular..pretty much animals that are cute and doe eyed..haha. I'd want to go over there to check out people's pets but I'd have to see if I can. I think I'm just gonna get jealous of their four-legged friends cause as of now, the pet that I'm keeping in my house are 2 fighting fish.. woohoo.. Kipper Jack (the pug that Raime gave) or KJ for short, is there in Raim's house since I wouldn't be able to take good care of hit (its a combo of him and it..KJ is such a ravenous beast sometimes, I don't think a personal pronoun should do hit justice)

So come and bring your adorable lil creatures, whatever they may be and join in the fun brought to you by the Philippine Animal Welfare Society, Eastwood City, Frontline Plus, McDonalds, The Philippine Star Pet Life section

POSE FOR PAWS at Eastwood City on July 20

SAY “CHEESE” !!!

Are your pets ready for their close-ups? If so, then head on down to Eastwood Central Plaza on July 20 (Sun) for the launch of “POSE FOR PAWS”. Anytime from 1-6PM, you and your pet can get your portraits taken in our unique photo booths manned by professional photographers.

Proceeds from all portraits purchased will go to the PAWS Animal Shelter which houses over 100 dogs and cats rescued from cruelty and neglect. The facility is not funded by any international organization or the government, and is solely dependent on donations and fund raising activities such as this to keep it running.

Last year, despite its limited funding, the PAWS Animal Shelter was able to spay-neuter 298 animals, respond to over 2000 calls from pet owners and animal rescuers, adopt out 30 dogs & 28 cats and rescue 42 animals in distress. Its humane education volunteer group has already reached over 5000 students and 28 schools - teaching kids and young people about kind treatment of animals and responsible pet ownership.

“POSE FOR PAWS” is made possible with the help of Eastwood City, Frontline,
McDonald’s and the Philippine Star Pet Life Section.

the night shinji made his helicopter come out

I went to Pedicab's album launch for Shinji Ilabas Mo Na Ang Helicopter and what a blast. I thank my better senses for pushing me to go and drink and have fun cause after all, it (is) a Friday. I was feeling a bit tired from work that around 6pm, I was really hesitating on making to the event. So for 30 minutes, I was smoking around McDonald's Q.Ave and starting weighing pros and cons just to go to the album launch (rofl)

PRO:
+ i get to drink
+ i get to see people from MCA
+ maybe this night is the night Jeff will introduce me to Diego (it still wasnt..wasnt in the mood)
+ i clearly wont spend my Friday night moping around the house

CON:
+ i'm sick
+ tamaditis was hitting me hard on the head
+ kuya cob wouldnt be with me during the duration of the night (which means i'd cab it from cubao)

And seeing that pro slightly outweighs con, i pushed my lazy arse self and enjoyed the night. i was able to grab Lai to come with me, saw Jeff, Raymond (Lifehouse tickets koooo!), Grace, Dylan, Wilson (you were late buddy!) and of course boss Ricky (hehe). I even saw a family friend who goes waaaaay back, si kuya JP (waaah I still couldnt believe your mom has no idea). The icing of it is I saw a professor! haha si Sir Tigno

Me: (squealing) OMG SIIIIIIR!!!
Sir Tigno: hoy! manahimik ka nga dyan, wag mo nga akong i-sir dito
Me: haha sorry! so Cezar (yes feeling close haha-->i was in the state of inebriated happiness) so sir who are you with? MC profs? I wanna see!
Sir: wala hindi mo kilala. mga kaibigan ko. bakit naman gusto mo pa makakita ng professors mo?
Me: wala, masaya eh. So what's up with Miriam? Bakit ginawang MU na?
Sir: Ginawa na bang MU? Ay oonga pala
Me: Hello sir, you teach there.. bakit hindi mo alam?
Sir: I stopped going there mga 2 years na
Me: HA?!? pero aaaaaww we were the last batch you taught. It's because we're special
Sir: Hindi ha, you guys burned me out

Waaaah ang kulit talaga ni Sir Tigno. pero he's one of the best!

So it was a great Friday for me, it wasnt totally wasted. Although I did miss out on Ted's merienda (dude, tiniran mo ba ko?? haha joke lang.. again super happy birthday Ted!)

Ok I'm off diving

what a fun night.. once again, mozcom friends (and their certain plus ones), alcohol and dunhill frost never fail to perk up a bday bash :) and also, great food and music at Bistro 110. Streamline played and I'm familiar with their music and Jay's friends with one of the members so they played a kick-a** birthday song for us (me and Jay)
Aren't girlfriends great? :)
There's Ada who came out to party (once a Makati girl, always a Makati girl)

And then of course Marketing girls MUST have a picture And is somebody gonna score? :) hehehe joking Zsazsa. it was nice meeting you and thanks for having fun with us as well Another "outed" couple for the night heehee And Cuy's victim, este, boyfriend, Jab, came too. Cuy might be fun when sober but she's uber fun when alcohol is running in her system

All in all, last night had been fun! Thanks thanks to all!! :)

to jonats...

today i learned that an officemate, a colleague and more importantly, a friend passed away at 2 in the morning. he was no less than 30 and under normal circumstances, would've been at the prime of his life..

but sadly, jonats (as he was fondly called) met his maker due to cancer :(

this is quite weird to say the least. one because most of the people i know who've passed away are old and not directly related to me (except for my uncle). usually they are the parents of friends or something like that..it's of a degree type of relationship. jonats isn't one of them

i wouldnt say i've known him well nor would i say i've known him the longest but i'm glad to just have met the guy.. he can be stubborn (seriously not giving in to my points in friendly banter) but he's genuine.. most of all, what saddens me the most is that he was one of the first few friends i've had in the apathetic floor of the 21st. super kulit, di ako makatrabaho before without greeting him first sa ym.. he'd be so annoyed whenever i tell him na crush ko si ganito crush ko si ganyan but that's just typical "kuya" attitude..

so for the most part, at least in the short time that i've known jonats, he resides well in memory..

first entry

ha! here i am, my first entry to the numerous attempts of blogging :) i believe that the sixth time's a charm haha

so what's the difference with this attempt from the many (and failed) tries? I guess now I have more things to say compared to the pathetic mundane sh*t I try to come out as fancy before.. does that make sense? if it does, then goodie, you got me.. if not, well boof*ckinghoo :)

kidding aside, I'm personally a bit more excited with this blog. And many of you are wondering, what's with the blog name? is it because I work for Fliptunes? Uh NO stupid! it's because I usually can express myself with a lot of mannerisms..one of the many that I'm enjoying to become a habit now is the mannerism of hair flipping. Blonde as it sounds but I like it! (ain't nuthing much you can do about it pal! my blog, my rules haha)

I'll keep this short but sweet
