TACTOLOGY: Rediscovered

I was going through the day thinking of what I should blog about tonight. I went from anything and everything. At first I was thinking about blogging about Paris or Britney, but then I thought to myself, I haven't blogged about my personal life in a while. I've been digging for the best ideas to apply to tonight, and all I could think about are my hopes for the near future.

So its about 15 more days until I head out to the Philippines. Like I mentioned in the previous blogs, I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO THE PHILIPPINES. I honestly do not know what to expect when I head there. I know that I'll be heading to the many cities and some provinces, I just can't predict on whom I'll meet, what I'll eat, or even what I'll be wearing. It's going to be an adventure because it's in a country I know I can relate to, yet have the chance to discover a culture I'm not exposed to.

One person that I'm definitely going to miss is my boyfriend, Jaybe. We've been attached like no other for the past couple of years and this is going to be the first time in a while, that we're going to be separated. I remember two years ago when he went to the Philippines how hard it was for me to live each day knowing that I might not talk to him. He made it extra special because he did something so creative to help me deal with not having him near me. Basically, he compilated a CD for me with different songs that carried a specific theme which represented a feeling. He directed me to listen to one track on one day, and continue the CD up until the days when he got back. At the same time of listening to the track, he told me to light this candle that he got and read this special tag onto why he chose this song for that day. IT WAS UBER ROMANTIC! For example, I remember one of the tracks being THIS KISS by FAITH HILL because that was the song that was playing during the water show at Bellagio, Las Vegas. It was sweet. There were some songs that were totally random, but added some humor this whole thing. I, for sure, want to do something creative and sweet for him too, but I'm still in the process as to what I'll be doing. Any ideas?

Another thing that's been in my mind was school and the idea of moving down to San Diego in the Fall. We already did our apartment hunting, and Jaybe and I already have our fave, it's all in the matter of actually making everything official. He's going to know if he gets admitted to his school in July, just as I am going to notified if I'll be admitted to my program in late June (while I'm in the PI's). So technically, most of the changes won't take place until I come back. I really don't know what will happen.

One priority I know I have covered is my job. Since this is a temporary position, I already know that next Friday will be my last day. It was so ironic today, because I was discussing with my fellow co-workers that next Friday would be my last day and they were all sad about it. They said that I bring the new-hires together because of my charismatic personality. I guess it made me appreciate time more than ever. I should be taking advantage of the time here, with friends and family, because its true, I am planning on moving. So after I realized that, I now know how important it is to cherish the time I have with my loved ones here, at home.

New news! My myspace page is just about done regarding it's completion. I deleted my myspace account a couple of months ago due to an unfortunate event. I was going to make this an official deletion for I felt that the website would have no value or purpose. It wasn't until I realized that having the MySpace account did come and handy when it came to communicating with my distant and not-so-distant friends. I decided that deleting it was going to be a huge deal, since most of my friendship ties were connected through the network, and that deleting it would be a risk of losing them forever. But after about 3 months, and with the help of Jaybe and his creative sense of mind, my Myspace page will have it's World Premiere sometime at the end of this week. I have started back to zero friends and will be open to meeting new people, as well as having the goal to find the old and familiar.

If there are any fellow bloggers out there with a MySpace account, email me your addy and I'll be sure to get in touch with you.

I was talking with my co-workers yesterday about eyebrows and rather or not waxing, tweezing, or threading has the greatest results. We concluded that even though waxing is a faster procedure, that threading has the best results regarding accuracy and having a slower rate when it comes to growing back again. Tweezing, on the other hand is slightly painful and time consuming. It could even be a bit stressful when you realize that you plucked a little too much.

I have been waxing my eyebrows for about 4 years now (I remember my first time was right when I graduated high school and it was the night before I headed to Hawaii with my friends). But yeah since then, I've been waxing every 2 weeks. I have threaded my brows once, but never got to do it again. I know that threading is a little bit more pricier, and also wins because it carries less maintainence.

So what do you think is the best way to get that extra bit of eyebrow out of the way?

A)Waxing
B)Tweezing
C)Threading

Kicking for the goal.

I am so SURPRISED ... i mean AMAZED ... about the feelings u have for your boyfriend. One of these days, hopefully, I would feel the same way too ... to my special someone. I can be easily teased but I tried my hardest not to be on that TRAP. And I am happy to share that it's actually working, at least for 2 months and 22 days now. Though I always get PROBING questions from my boyfriend every time we see each other. I hate explaining though but we never had any serious QUARREL ... not yet. Oh anyway, try to catch more FILIPINO shows out there so you won't experience CULTURE SHOCK. A friend of mine, though he's positive of using ecstasy or whatever it's called, recovered from CULTURE SHOCK only few months later. Now he's back to Jersey. Sorry for the SEGUES, I hope I didn't take a lot of SPACE here. Sorry if there are typos too. HeHeHe. Bye now.

First time to the Pearl of the Orient eh?!?! Hmmm...I think you'll enjoy it. It'll be like discovering another side of you. Just be prepared about the heat, the pollution, and the beggars on the street...other than that it's an awesome place. Try to hit some clubs with cousins or friends. Meet cute guys! Well I think that verboten for you...As for the whole being apart thing, remember that "Absence makes the Heart grow fonder." Next time you go to the Philippines take your bf with you. PS. Shop shop shop! The malls there are HUGE! Try to hit some local shops too. Just be careful and don't be too trusting...Anyway have a great time.
