addicted...
to bobbi brown cosmetics!
arggghhh.....
i've always been a huge fan of bobbi brown blushes (can't live without it... have at least 4 colors). converted my friend che to a bobbi brown blush fan as well hehe.
but when i tried their gel eyeliner, i got hooked with the brand (ayayay!!!) all over again. i was a bit apprehensive at first because i thought the gel eyeliner is difficult to use. but actually it's not! amazing! and the best thing about it is that it DOES NOT smudge! perfect hahaha. :p (goes well with benefit's "gee that was fast" makeup remover - loving this products sooo much as well)
so went on a makeup shopping spree for my bday / christmas gift. lui was nice enough to sit back and watch AND not say anything. (but he did tell me that my next makeup purchase should be in June na. hihi)
i love their products tlaga! from their brushes, blushes, eyeshadow, concealer, face base, eyeliner, shimmer brick and stick foundation!!! but i don't like their lipgloss still. too sticky. i think i'll stick with MAC :p
okay that's it. hehe. my pagiging makeup junkie just got the better of me. hehehe

Johor bahru + twilight movie = ???
note: this is my own personal opinion. eveybody has one right? hehehe
so... i loved the book, but did i love the movie? hmmm...
oki a little background before i start my reviews on the movie:
last weekend, my singapore friendships decided to watch Twilight in Johor Bahru today - since the movie will not be shown until dec 18 in singapore, i thought why not - i havent been to JB anyway so it would be a good chance to visit and have a look see. so why not give it a try?
i will tell you why NOT- because a trip to JB can be your most horrible out of country trip evah! OMG. you know how im sooo into travelling and trying out new things right? but this trip, this trip is a different level altogether. today is just too much for me. i wanted to throw a tantrum at the JB checkpoint. we queued for what i thought was ages. i was in pure misery. it was so f*cking hot and there was no ventilation whatsoever. it was so crowded - which is really bad for a claustrophobic person like me - it was misery to the highest level. as in when i finally reached the 'finish line' i couldnt help but swear my heart out. "p*tang ina!!!!!!! p*tang ina talaga!!!!!!" sighs. how that experience made me APPRECIATE singapore better. sighs.
anyway, so we finally arrived at the mall (after 10 years). good thing there were still some decent seats for the 4:20pm movie (we originally booked for 1:40pm good thing we didnt have to pay for that coz we totally missed the movie argh talga)
(sorry had to just include the ranting bit coz it might have influenced my take on the movie)
okay so back to the movie. so... how did i find it?
good parts first:
bella was awfully pretty! i heart her :); her dad's character was awesome haha funny and added a bit of life to the movie; the cars were fab! how i wish i can get a RED mercedes convertible as well! (drool); i love the location. it gave the right amount of gloom - just like in the book; and the cullen's house was just beautiful! i never would have thought that it would be that fantastic! glass windows all over oh my god my ideal home!!!!
parts of the movie were so familiar that i couldnt help feel giddy. they tried to be as accurate to the book as possible.
bad parts:
some of the castings are off... edward seemed a bit gay (too much lipstick!!), and his eyes looked like it was about to pop out most of the time (a bit hard to look at actually. feels like looking at an owl); jasper was just too painful. OMG poor jasper. i thought he'd look tougher and more brooding, but all he looked like was a consitpated guy. panget tlaga. they didnt even say what his power was.; carlisle - he was just too white. period; jacob - oh my poor jacob. he looked a bit lost. how i wish they'd cut off all that hair!
there were also some parts of the book that they didnt include. i was looking forward to the how edward showed the effect of the sun to his skin to bella the first time. because i loved that part. it was too romantic. but the movie was so condensed that everything happened all at the same time (you'll see what i mean when you watch the movie). i also missed the part where edward hugged bella in bed the first time (while bella was sleeping) that was so sweet. but it wasnt as sweet in the movie.
there were scenes that i thought they could have removed instead (was a bit flat for me - or maybe that's just my exhaustion)
so what's MY verdict?
it's still a decent enough movie to watch. a bit of a chick flick. but i wouldnt recommend that you watch it in JB - it's just so not worth it.

too much HOUSE is bad for you
that's it. no more house for me and lui (well maybe until we get over the trauma of today)
it all started when, after body combat and 30 mins in treadmill, i saw lui's shirt had blood on it! blood! oh my f-ing sh*t!!! he had blood at both sides of his front shirt and on the back as well. i was in total shock. i demanded that he rush to the locker and see what's bleeding...
the time i waited for him outside the locker room was sheer hell. my imagination was running wild. a specific episode of house - where the patient perspired blood- kept running through my head. ghad... it wasnt the best thing to think about but i just couldnt seem to help myself. (apparently lui thought of the same thing and it scared him to death!)
after some time (thanks lui for making me wait in agony) lui came out of the locker room with a pained look on his face... apparently the blood came from his nipples
ghak. nightmare talaga. i was in total shock and was a nervous wreck. we immediately aborted all plans of pushing some weights and headed home ASAP. on our way home we were thinking of every possible thing that can happen... (we even decided that lui will have to go back to the phils asap to have some more tests done) blame it on dr house. argh
so eventually we arrived at our doctor-next-door's clinic... (the laughing hienna - coz he laughs at every illness) so we were there and i started by telling him that we went to the gym earlier (he laughs) and we noticed that lui's nipple were bleeding (he laughs again). lui and i couldnt understand what was so funny... until he asked us "did you run on th treadmill?" we were like "yah..." and then you know what he did? yup he laughed again.
so what's the prognosis? apparently, nipple bleeding is a normal fiasco (if i may call it that) and it happens mostly to male runners. apparently too much friction will give you bloody nipples. arghh...
but im glad that we finally know what happened and that there's nothing internally wrong with lui. i really THANK GOD for that.
what a day... stress na nga weekdays... stress pa din weekend ko! tsk.
love you pa-b!!!

these past few days, i've been salivating over lechon. yes lechon. wahhhh. this is bad. there is nowhere in singapore i can get my hands on lechon. sighs. i have to settle with pictures muna i guess. hehe.
this craving for lechon started last september, when my cousin charlie announced (through multiply) about their native lechon - LECHON SABROSO
and then, just like that, they were all over! mama benz was raving about the lechon - they even posted in weddings@work newsblog, it was discussed in newlyweds@work yahoogroup, and my mom is raving about it! hahaha.
apparently, Charlie sent a sampler to my mom's house and the rest is history. haha i got several text messages from my mom, as well as a call just to share with me her delight with the lechon lol. she said she'll definitely order soon :)
what struck me the most was what she said: "sana meron na sila lechon dati, para nung wedding mo, eto na lang hinanda natin"
o diva? i think mom is in love.
and im still salivating. :s i guess i have to wait till december to try this oh so famous lechon... i already ordered two pigs! :) haha one for noche buena and one for new year's eve. hihihi

reminiscing...
earlier this evening, lui asked what were we doing this time last year. and it made me think and decide to go back memory lane :)
apparently, this time last year, i was defending my fabulous VELUZ gown. an anonymous person left a not so nice comment on my gown sketch. i didnt have to explain neither did i have to defend VELUZ but i wanted to :) coz no other bride loved their gown as much as I did. (including all of ms v's gown hehehe)
here's the link http://kendznilui.blogspot.com/2007/10/my-gown-sketch.html
(oh,dlsu won last year's uaap game. i totally forgot about that... but we lost to our archrival/nemesis this year. tsk)
+++++++++++++++
someone sent me an email earlier as well, she said that she read my entire blog and had fun reading my preps :) well, that's the main reason i made it as detailed as possible. i want people to share the fun that i went through during my preps and also, to have something to look back to in the future :)
++++++++++++++++
i had a nice good long chat with my bestfriend dave earlier. i sure miss him... i admit that i failed to show up or call my friends when im in the phils, but i intend to do better. kasi i miss all of them na :(
so you guys, i'll see you in december okay? :)

ALL CLEAR!
i was on a pregnancy scare for almost two weeks when i finally decided to go get a test kit and find out once an for all. waiting for the result felt like forever, good thing lui is beside me, trying to calm me down. and then there it was. NOT PREGNANT clear as it can hehehe. im so glad i took the test, at least now i know for sure. (too bad i can't blame my weight gain on my pregnancy lol)thanks to my friends for the support haha mas happy pa sila sa akin! special mention to che who volunteered to babysit! lol
dont take me wrong... it's not like i dont ever want to have a baby. i just honestly think that this is not the right time for a baby - with my workload and all... i know someday we'll be mom and dads, but in due time :)
whew too much excitement. im hitting the sack. nights!

im back!!! (and hating it! grrrrr)
dont ask. it's been one hella day at work and i thought it would never end! hmph. that's what happens when you go on leave (149 emails lang naman ang sumalubong sa akin no!!! and i was away for only a week!)
anyway....... ranting aside -
our trip back home was in one word "TOXIC" we had so much to do in so little time!!!
finally got my new glasses and contact lenses. my grade increased yet again :( but i'm so loving my new BEBE glasses :D oh got a new haircut and color to go with it!
we flew off to davao on our second day... partied with grandma for her 79th bday and celebrated with grandpa for his 24th death anniv. daming food!!! met up with friends almost every night! i think i've been to almost all the coffee shops in davao! hehe.
oh lui also had his braces removed!!! ANG GWAPO NA NG ASAWA KO!!! woot!!!
so after 4 days in davao, we went back to manila, full and few pounds more. hehe... we then visited (for the first time) the condo that we bought in taguig.
i loved it!!! from the moment we stepped (or stirred the car) inside the compound, i knew we made the right choice! it was awesome... it lived up to my expectations... it's like living in a resort everyday! :)
will post more pics soon! :D
oh i almost forgot! we met up with mama benz and baby jenn as well last thursday. that's when we got our wedding video :) it's really really awesome! :) belated happy birthday ulit baby! mama benz, kita kits tayo ulit!!!
super not stop eating, is what we did... we tried crawdaddy's (???) at the fort high street, holy cow at rob place manila and a steak house in greenbelt 5. i cant remember the name though... hmmm delicious! i highly recommend holycow. it's cheap yet very tasty! (sabi nga ni mama solid! hehe)
trivia: i've been having tiramisu cravings for two weeks now and i just realized how weird the tiramisu in the philippines are. i tasted one which had a gelatin texture, one with mostly chiffon cake, one that tasted like cheesecake and so on. geeezzzz... im still looking for the perfect tiramisu :S
oh well, that's it for now, heading off to bed. been a llooooooooooonnnggg day and i know it'll be the same tom.
nights!
