the hearts day


the v-day



for an nbsb and hopeless romantic like me, this day is the worst.


but actually, who cares?


i know there's the little green monster growling within me whenever i see couples with flowers, balloons or whatever things that made me remind i don't have these sort of things..


anyway, i just ahd another v-day with my friends under the hot afternoon sun while playing dodgeball, sack race and three-legged-relay. in the morning, someone not special gave me a portrait of myself. they said it was sweet but hurtingly but honestly, it didn't even make my tiniest hairs in my nose rise up. it was okay. but it was... weird. (?) it just feels like no one really gave anything for me. i appreciate it, really but i'm just too.. too.. just not looking forward to it. hehehe... i even felt a little insulted. i don't know if he gave me that because i'm "likable" or because the likes of me need to realize that we are not pretty and even a portrait cannot perfect our imperfections. anyway, i really don't give a damn anymore. :p


the date


my date/s for the day are my friends. we went to the mall. did some eating at hot loops then parted for further dating moments with some of us who stayed at rob and some went to sm lipa. joycie was my date for the day. we no longer had any eating moment but we got crazy over stacks and stacks of clothes that we have to knock over to find our perfect power suit! woo-hoo! i accomplished the job faster than expected and i even got nice clothes. not the over-sa-oa ones nor the best-of-the-best but at least they are the ones, i prefer to wear. funny is, it's as if joyce and me are only friends when we are to fit or to purchase any specific clothing. once we get to the racks, we hit them by ourselves leaving each other to attend in our own quest. and if ever we find the perfect or the almost perfect or the supposedly perfect one, that's the only time we consult each other and talk about what we chose. i ended up purchasing 2 blouses, one a tee and the other a long brown blouse with sabrina cut style of neckline, and joyce bought two blouses and a pair of cute striped brown flats from sm dept store.


i just love shopping with my friends!


in this case, friend.


the goodbye


i got home at about quarter to eight in the evening. and my mother was not bothered that i go home that late. it was all part of the 'letting my child go' stage for her and i understood it. honestly, i enjoy it for at least, i am given the freedom to do whatever i like but set my own limits. anyway, i had a nice time with joyce. it was definitely a keeper!


and it dawned to me...


single life is not that bad at all!


however on the 25th of july, i have to keep my deal with april dawn and have a boyfriend to break the nbsb curse...


so 25th of july... here i come!
