Two weeks later

I looked at my post two weeks ago. That one post. The post below this one dated August 20. About my relationship that didn't work out. We broke up mid-July actually. Was able to talk about it just after I realized it's so not worth it. Totally. So not going to be worth it. I'm happy now and that's enough. He's still in his miserable life, living a life he doesn't want. Whatever. It was falling apart that time anyway and I felt it was going to end. I tried to detach myself more and more every day so that when it happens it wouldn't hurt. It hurt nonetheless but letting go was the key. Yeah, yeah. Too much of this serious stuff.

he's gone, period

It's over. He's gone, I ended it. Let's call him X1. Cute.

Why do guys are very different during courtship and during a relationship? And why the hell do I fall in love so quick? Don't answer that. I'm just ranting. Good lord, blame it on the oxytocin levels and blame it the hormones. Whatever. 

When we first started dating, it was sweet and nice. I didn't like him at first but what the hell, those initial feelings change. I felt secure around him and I felt that he did love me. After a while, I guess he changed. It all changed. He doesn't send messages as much, doesn't even call. There are 10,800 minutes in a week and you can't even use one to call or send a message? Fuck you. 

Don't get me wrong. It's over now and I moved on. Yeah, I guess there's still some bitterness but it's just bitterness girls usually have for their exes. Just normal bitterness on a person for a relationship gone awry.

Let's end this post with some Cyanide and Happiness. 'Cause bitterness can be funny.

Awesome <3

New professional blog

Hi!

http://paigestillwrites.blogspot.com/ will now be my professional writing blog. Hold off on the updates until I finish writing content on that blog.

Good lord, I didn't have time updating this one, what more 2 blogs? I will do my best guys. I'm so excited about my new blog!

Philippine Fashion Week: Louie Mamengo

Just last Sunday (May 15), me and my friend Erika went to Philippine Fashion Week. It's the last day and damn if we missed out. We went to the fashion show of L'oreal featuring designer Louie Mamengo. He already died, by the way. May he rest in peace. Let me share some pictures from Louie Mamengo's last collection. From what I know, he studied in Paris for quite sometime. L'oreal is a French company too by the way.

 This was the first piece in the runway. I must admit I like this piece. It has this kindof Scottish feel to it and the whole ensemble seem to make it work. And Anne Curtis is really pretty.

 From the left, Black Riding Hood, anyone? Well it looks really nice but I doubt if anyone can use this, except if you live in Paris. Second one, this garbage bag inspired gown is hideous. I don't want to insult the dead, just the gown. I mean, seriously? What person in the right mind would where a gown like that? That's my opinion. Other people would think differently but hey, it's a free world.

And that's us. From the left, RB, Erika and Me. I did acquire quite a tan, I went to the beach the day before that but that trip is saved for another post.

Photos by RB Carmen and Jomike Robina. And yes, I do site my Sources. :)

One month later

My last post was on April 15. I'm still the procatinator and lazy girl you've always known. Just so you know, all of a sudden, blogspot cannot be accessed at work. Why oh why? Beats me.

Don't ask how I can still post and rant about all this, aren't I at work? DON'T ASK.

I'll post some more stuff tomorrow. I promise!

Just a life update: (in a lazy, messed up, whatever-i-think-about order)
I enrolled in a gym. (yahoo!)
Tried to go back swimming but failed. (work, swim, home. So exhausting! The traffic is annoying.)
Still working at Reuters (ofcourse!).
Working part-time as a content writer
Gained weight. (That's why I enrolled in the gym!)
Gained weight but still pretty. (uhuh.)
Lashes fell off. (I'm currently walking around without my pretty lashes. Huhu)

Here's a cute dialogue from me and my co-worker:

"S: I'll pull your skirt up.
     ME: It's alright, I'm wearing pretty panties. :)

The mad woman. LOL

American Adobo

Before our SME (Subject Matter Expert) went back to Minnesota, she asked us to teach her how to make Adobo. Since I'm always so excited about cooking and all that, I was one of the volunteers to teach her. We had an Adobo party a few days before she left.

That's M, L and Me doing some preps for the Adobo. Where was I looking? What the hell was I thinking? I got no idea either. Earth to Paige!!! LOL

 The Adobo. Yummy, yummy! L (our SME) cooked it. We just did all the preparations but she did all the cooking. :)

 Taken when our co-workers clicked the hotel room doorbell and surprised us with pictures. Not surprising for me but as usual, I'm still going ballistic! LOL!

The cooked Adobo along with the other food. Yum! Of course the Adobo was sold out. There was hardly any left!

We were really sad when L went back to Minnesota. Btw, my co-workers liked to eat lots and I swear my skirts are a little tighter than when I started working last January.  

Anberlin concert, how awesome is awesome?

I forgot to post about the March 9 Anberlin Concert. It was truly one of the best. The band was amazing and the crowd was just as interactive. We we're all singing along, jumping and screaming to the songs. The crowd was chanting "Anberlin" just after the first song. You should see the band members' faces. They were smiling from ear to ear as the crowd chanted. They sang songs from each album - from Blueprints for the Black Market until the recent one. I was so happy 'cause I was able to watch the concert with my friends as well. I knew the band members had a great time because after they finished singing all their songs and went off stage, the crowd chanted "Anberlin, Anberlin" again. They came back on stage and sang two more songs and promised to come back to Manila again. Awesome.

Some pictures from the concert.

Credits to my friend, Jec for this picture.  Look at Stephen go!

 More from Jec. What crowd!

 STOP! In the name of love! *Pic from Aika Beltran, Anberlin Fan.

 Me with the gang just after the concert.

I had a hang-up after the concert. It was just a great and crazy night. Even Stephen (the vocalist) tweeted  something the day after that made my heart swell.

How awesome is awesome?
