Tuesday, August 22nd, 2006

a little overdramatic i know, but i do believe this will be my last post here… (if i can help myself…) it feels like, im leaving a part of me… boohoohoo.

i guess it’s inevitable. i’ve been trying to create a weddingannouncer these past few months, and i already did actually, but im really having a hard time maintaining two blogs, so i decided to create just one blog  in blogger (my original blog sponsor hehe) plus, you will rid of pesky friendster emails telling you that "Candy has updater her blog" hehehe.

well, it’s been nice blogging here. do visit my new blogsite. http:.//kendznilui.blogspot.com

ciao!

candy was here! ;p

been noticing that friendster has been quiet these past few days, no new added photos of friends, not much blogs to read. but there are some messages from friends that i didnt get to reply! so sorry!!! rose and che, sorry!

been busy with work lately. kapuy. but i guess it’s better than doing nothing and thinking of things i shouldn’t be thinking or getting bored and doing things that i shouldn’t be doing like shopping coz im down to my last hundred hehe.

been trying to keep fit. last week went to the gym twice, two days in a row. i have confirmed that i am out of shape. i was breathless, my muscles ached and i have little to no endurance at all! hahaha… saw lots of things i shouldn’t have seen in the locker room. philip, you’re really in the wrong locker room dude! lol!

been trying to be active in work. joined the badminton activity last saturday. it was great. played for one hour straight! feels a bit weird that im pairing with an old guy instead of my usual partner-in-crime emil… but still enjoyed it a lot! missed badminton sooo much!

been trying to lose weight… we’ll see how it goes.

been keeping in touch with some friends thru chat… for those who have not discovered gmail. please. do. it’s the only chat facility that is allowed in the office so if you have time, please.

been catching up on sleep. seems like every chance i get, i sleep. hehehe…

been watching movies…

been thinking… about a lot of things. about all sorts of things… my mind is so clouded that im not sure if im still thinking straight.

been reading tuesdays with morrie. reading it one chapter at a time… too sad a story for me… cant bear reading it in one sitting. but i do believe it’s a nice read.

that’s it! been nice blogging again. :)

sadness…

Wednesday, August 9th, 2006

i cant think… i dont know how to start this blog. im still feeling sad and disappointed, but not extremely, just a bit. and i think i deserve to feel a little. dont you think?

i woke up with my phone ringing. it was lui… i knew something went wrong. my first thought was that the cheque didnt go through Clarice’s bank account and we had to postpone our reservation for coconut palace, but i was wrong. (background: clarice is the very best wedding coordinator a person can have! coconut palace is the reception venue we were eyeing for)

were eyeing for… because we found out that, even as early as we have started with our preps, someone still beat us in reserving our wedding place, on our wedding date, on our wedding time.

argh!! and i get comments from people that im too paranoid and it’s too early to start with preps. i endure it. i try to ignore them. but now this??? this was what i was trying to avoid from happening but it still did. :( oh well… i guess i have to go back to the old drawing board and start from scratch… research research research.

good thing i have clarice. i think hiring her is one of my better decisions for this wedding, if i can say so myself. :) clarice is an angel. when she found out that CP is not available anymore, she went straignt to intramuros to find a different venue. she even called me (long distance!) just to check up on me, to make sure im alright and to give a short prep talk: "we will find the best venue yet. promise!"

i guess it’s just not meant to be… i was still having doubts about coconut palace until the last minute so i guess it was really not for us. but it’s really a beautiful place for a garden reception like we wanted. beautiful sunset! but hay… cant think of that anymore.. huhuhu

hope we can find something much better. a-ja! fighting! (oops… too many korean teleseryes.) haha

more pics :)
