This is a Sade classic. I didn't know that the vid is like a mini movie of a man who is an incorrigible playboy. Again, this is one of those songs that hits close to home but what the heck? Sade's got one of those coolest jazzy voice there is!
Lovingly dedicated to that incorrigible playboy. Heaven help you, when you fall...
This is one of my fave video from my guru. I just love the play of cam angles and lights here! They look so fashionably elegant that it fits to the song like a T!!:P
Lyric-wise, as always, my guru PERFECTLY described my state of mind! If I can just dub him as my omniscient narrator/life storyteller, then I definitely would!
To point out those sharp-edged lines, here they are:
HIBERNATING ALWAYS WAITING FOR SOMETHING NEW HAPPINESS ALWAYS ENDING
what more can these two lines say? I wish I can directly say this to the one who suggested hibernation in the first place...hahay!
But then again, despite all what I have been...and going through, I couldn't agree to these lines more...
...IT'S HARD TO TAKE CONTROL WHEN YOUR ENEMY'S OLD AND AFRAID OF YOU YOU DISCOVER THAT THE MONSTER YOU WERE RUNNING FROM IS THE MONSTER IN YOU BETTER TO HOLD ON TO LOVE BETTER TO HOLD ON TO LOVE CHANGE WILL COME
As what Mom said, "do your best, always!" ay, mali! wrong mom!![darn you, KC!hehehehehe!]. "Think positive, anak."
And that is what I can only hope at the moment...like, do I have another freakin' option?
I was given a Php 250 gift cert from Cafe Mediterranean. And since we were at Chimes already, plus the fact that we haven't eaten our snacks yet, I decided to use it right away. Since mom and dad went there first, we ended up eating a meatless pizza. Great nevertheless!! This is going to be on the must-eat restos here in the city, that is for sure!!:D
It was indeed a different celebration from last year! And thank goodness there was no bedroom exile for me! It was, however, changed to office seclusion instead! It wasn't by choice, though. It just so happened that both my boss and officemate had to go out on an official trip and I had to be left behind to man the office. So, I tried to make up for it by going online and chat with friends, who warmly greeted me happy birthday [now who wouldn't love the cyberspace for this?:D].

Honestly, I don't know how to really write and elaborate on this entry. I was thinking of enumerating some facts about me, but then I realized who on earth would be interested to know what time I was born exactly, where I was born, my baptismal month, my first trip away from home, yada, yada? I bet it's going to be a BORE to readers. Anyway, since I so much wanted to write something about my special day yesterday and my pictures aren't available yet [stay tuned!:D], allow me to ramble nothings here in this entry. Read on, if you wish...:D

I just love the thought that I was able to buy a nice top and accessories! Buying clothes and dressing up has been a very good way for me to be preoccupied and at the same time, give me all the confidence that I need, being overweight, bloated, and whatever. When Jen accompanied me in my clothes shopping 2 days before my birthday, I was redeemed. If I shopped for my birthday wardrobe alone, it would definitely be a disaster, I bet! Because of that, I realized I have found myself an official pimp in her [at least that's what I want to call her...]. Someone whom I can entrust my ineptitude in the fashion era with [to my utmost dismay*sigh*]. Apart from that, it also dawned on me that she can be someone we can rely on straightforwardly telling us the truth, no matter how painful it could be. I am just fortunate to have met a wonderul set of friends back in college. And even more fortunate that after almost a decade of knowing them and being friends with them, our friendship never wavered nor strained...
And this just all came to thought when I started embracing the thought to dress up for a change...oh well...

I will elaborate on my birthday dinner on my album...it is better told with the pictures around to reminisce and all that jazz. I will now take the floor and thank the people who remembered and "helped" me think and realize that age indeed is ain't nothing but a number [Did I just win an award or got promoted or something?].
Mama-for being a wonderfully psychotic mother [especially in the mornings] for tolerating my grouchy state in the morning and for making my birthday complete by cooking my favorite dish: spaghetti!!
Papa-for being supportive and for having such a wonderful taste in food and ambulance-i mean, ambience![hehehehehehehe!!peace mom!!:P]. I am truly proud to say I have a "kikoy" Dad! hihihihihihihihi!!
Myko, Leeroy, Janine-for deliciously eating the food[despite them not really into raw and spicy stuff], and for being crazy as they really are!!hehehehehehe!! To my little brother Myko: thanks for the "gift.";) sa uulitin!!:P
Mabel- thanks for loaning us your credit card[I only carry cash man, sorry!:D]and your digicam [and for uploading the pictures, at that!] and for having buffet with us. And for giving the the three of us a ride to Bo's.And...hehehehehehehe! ;)
Zakoya Restaurant- for those unforgettable sushi and maki that you served. And for the wonderful ambience! Made me temporarily feel how it is to eat the Nihon-jin way!! arigato gozaimasu!!:P
Bo's Coffee Club-for the candle in my slice of chocolate cake!!woohoo!!
Mag's boutique-for my nice top, with a nice price too [seriously, girls must drop by and shop there! It's really gonna be worth it!:P]
Tito Ted[who will now be dubbed as Tito Pogs from now on]-for the load as my bday gift from you...3 years in a row and I just can't thank you enough!!:D
Auntie Eva, Tita Lee, Tita Sue and cousin Beigy- for always remembering.
To high school/college/office batchmates and acquaintances[namely: Lyn, Azer, Stip, Gil, Kai, Greta, Shane, Ced, Faith, Mommy Jinky,Bongbong, Tatara, Roaness, Brian elmo, Badet, Resti, Wendy, Zaldy] , whom I accidentally met and greeted me whether in person or virtually-thanks for that minute or so of attention, whatever that means!:D
Gladys-for the chunky choco cheesecake you bought me before you left for Camiguin!! Looking forward to see you soon...that is, if I can get to see you!!wehehehehe!!joke!:P
Mame Mariz-for calling me DIYOSA in my guestbook!!hahahahahahaha!! If there is such a thing as Mother Goddess, that would definitely be you!! Really looking forward to drop by in Alabang to pay you a visit! cheers!!:D
Sunshine- for ALWAYS remembering despite not seeing each other for ages. See you in October 29.:D
Mae Love-my diaper friend. Yes, we are indeed getting old!! But don't worry, it still doesn't show, right!! Hope you can come home for Dianne's wedding.
Lemuel Paul- for FINALLY remembering when my birthday is exactly[thanks to friendster and multiply?:P] and for keeping that blue ribbon and virtual line burning despite some circumstances. You are, indeed, one of the people I would truly respect and look up to[tangina! naniwala ka naman!!hahahahahahahaha!! dapat lang noh!! kelan ba ako nagsinungaling, ha?!:D]. Let's drink to that and don't forget to keep that bucket of ice cold beer and pizza rollling, oki?:P
Lala and Jen- for keeping the tradition, even though we have broken it lots of times already [which, was beyond our control, in the first place]. I couldn't thank you enough for putting up with that tradition...and with me. If we are going to end up married to each other, I wouldn't definitely be surprised anymore!! nyahahahahahahaha!![ But I know both of you are wishing otherwise, if possible. Don't worry, that goes for me too!!:P] Wabshu!
To whom-I-call-voldemort-at-the-moment- for greeting me first thing at dawn [despite drunkeness? It's the thought that counts, I know...]. Will I just remain a vampire forever, slowly being sucked dry by a fellow predator, or be finally given a chance to see the sunlight? [take this as a food for thought...or just plain ramblings of a vampire...however you put it...]
If I have forgotten something or someone-it may just be an ordinary freakin' birthday and it happens annually, but the thing here is, it is not every year that a birthday celebrant welcomes the thought of adding another year in their age. Therefore, each and everyone's sunny disposition and warm greeting matters to me this year to the core. Thank you, from the bottom of my broken[eh?no!] heart.:P
=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=
Will a birthday be complete without a wish list? I reckon birthdays are our individual celebration of New Year, so we have every right to think some, if not many, wishes that we hope would come true in the months to come[hopefully]. Here is mine, and I am now giving you permission to take a peek on them.:) [just don't laugh too much on some of them, please...:P]
Stable career. As what I mentioned in my journal, hope it spells S-P-C in this category, at least, for now.
Graduate School- next to Open U[which I'm still thinking of whether or not to push through or something...], I wish that the diploma course that I made reservation on will give me a go signal to go back to school once again! I am going to keep my fingers crossed on it!!
laptop-like my pile of memory, my mind is in literary shambles. I reckon it's way past high time for me to take 'em off my head and put them on paper...or in this case, put them on electronic paper.
cell phone? But nah, I still love my 6260. All it just needs is a new battery...and casing[will it really be worth 500 bucks? I sincerely hope so!!]
120lbs and size 6 figure-my ideal weight and figure. This, after all, is my wish list, right?
That's just about it!! As for the one I wished for [before blowing the candle at Bo's], shall remain a huge secret for the time being. Besides, I was busy posing to make a huge blow on jen's cam then than completely uttering that wish. But either way, it's a wish nevertheless-priceless, no-money-involved kinda deal, invisible, but will definitely make my heart overflow with joy and delight once given, or once it comes true. The thing that money cannot absolutely buy... [and then it strikes like Oliver Queen's green arrow...;)to whom? well...it's part of the unrevealed wish so, top secret!]
