Sorry for the unexpected hiatus. I was sick last week with the flu. I was also absent from work for 3 days. A few things have changed since I last wrote here. I'll try to them as I write this post.

I don't think I ever mentioned this but a couple of weeks ago, I fell in love with a pink Anna Sui bag. The initial price is cheap. I think it was 800 pesos. I don't remember if I was the first one to bid but another girl was wanted the bag too so for several days, we tried to outbid each other. I placed my maximum bid to 2,500. I don't recall why I was sleepy. Maybe from lack of sleep or I was feeling sick. But I slept early. Like 10 PM. Can you believe that?! 10 PM!!!! So okay, when I checked my mail the next day, I found out I lost the bag. The bitch stole my bag for P2,700. Waaaah! So now I am still obsessed with that bag. In my desperation, I tried to find Ebay Japan but that doesn't exist. There's Yahoo Japan though but the site is in Japanese and I found out that the Japanese don't really like selling to gaijins like me. So I googled for Japan auctions and learned that there are websites which offer bidding services for gaijins who want something from Yahoo Japan. I found a good one, japanauctioncenter.com which offers the service at a cheaper rate than their competitions. I joined the site and deposited a couple thousand of pesos. I saw bags like the one I lost in ebay.ph but they were brand new and expensive. I'll keep on waiting for a good deal for that bag but for now, I still bid on other Anna Sui products. I actually won a nice wallet. I'm still crossing my fingers for the bag. It's just like the bag in the photo here except it was pink.

I have 2 Anna Sui bags now which I won on ebay.ph. They're not as nice as the one I wanted but what can I do?

I am working on a new project. It's web-related and it's looking good. I'll keep that a secret for now.

I just remembered that my driver's license is expired and I need to renew it. Gah. It expired last Nov. 26. I have to pay penalty fee for not renewing it in the proper time.

I ordered Absolutely Fabulous 1 to 3 and Degrassi Junior High the complete collection on Amazon and I got the DVDs last week. I haven't started watching them though. Hopefully I'll find time to watch during the short xmas holiday.

I'm so pretentious. I got myself a moleskine notebook and a large moleskine sketchbook. For those not in the know, moleskine is the brand of notebook Hemmingway, Van Gogh, Picasso, and other brilliant people used. This is what I get from hanging out in philmug.ph. Moleskine.ph overcharges those damn notebooks but I still ordered from the owner who is a philmug regular. It's just a damn notebook but I'll keep the illusion that I'm brilliant too because they are expensive. I just got them but I ordered last month. Damn longbeard (the seller). I'm still happy with the purchase though.

I already mentioned about the ibook I have. Well, I bought a bag for it. It's a Samsonite laptop backpack but it's way cheaper than the bag I saw in the Samsonite store. I bought mine from istudio in Greenhills. I also bought a...I don't know what they're called but they're stands for the laptop and it's spherical in shape. That one is expensive but it's serving me well. I overspent my shopping that day because I also ended up buying an Edifier speaker for my ipod. It's cheaper than the other good speakers I saw before so I took one.

Great. Most of my activities involve spending. What about me getting money? I hope I didn't lose any of my regular readers with this update. I would also like to pass around my patented tin can with class? Funds are low once again and sprinking a few $$$ my way would cheer me up in time for the holidays :D

I'm too sleepy now. I could hardly keep my eyes open. Please be generous while I sleep. I'll post again about the changes in my life when I find time at work.

Here's my xmas present to you, my readers.

I made an elf of myself.

My friend decided to sell her iBook because she's planning to get a brand new Macbook so it's for sure that I'm getting it. She said she won't be bringing it to the US so I can get it before she leaves on the 15th. I can't wait! It's only 13 inches so it's small and lightweight and I can take it anywhere, just perfect since I'm such a net addict. I don't know the specs of her iBook but she took really good care of it so it's in good condition. What's really surprising is I have enough money to pay for it. Thank goodness for early 13th month and birthday money.

I was supposed to go out with my friends last night but a sudden emergency made Phoebe unavailable so I had to postpone the birthday gathering. It's okay since I had to finish the ad lay-out my cousin commissioned me to do for him. The pay isn't much but it's easy work so I'm not complaining. Since my mac is in the office, I had to do my graphics there. I arrived around 5 PM and I think I finished the lay-out by 7 or earlier. By that time, I received Phoebe's message so when my cousin said he wanted to see the work, I told him to go to the office to check it. We revised it several times but he liked the final outcome. We finished past 8 PM and we were famished. We decided to go to Podium Mall and eat at Burgoo. I suggested that we go to Chili's or National Sports Grill but my cousin complained that those were too far.

In Podium, I window shopped for a while. I went to Dexter shoes and found an extra wide loafers I could wear to work. Problem is, it costs 5,800 pesos. Too much! I'll think about it though. After window shopping, we headed to Burgoo. We got the Seafood Caesar Salad, the Salmon in Spinach and Cream sauce (mine), and the Oklahoma Ribs (my cousin's). I liked my food but my cousin's steak wasn't tender. I told him to complain but he said it's okay. He didn't want to ruin his good mood. His friend Mike joined us and ate his leftovers. Mike has a new cellphone with wifi. It's a nokia but I don't know what it's called. It's interesting for me because of the wifi but it doesn't have a camera. He got it for cheap though. He said he could get me one for the same price but I'm not really interested. I have other things I need and they're more important. Besides, I already love my phone. My cousin wanted dessert so he ordered mud pie. It was good and it was gone in an instant. Mike had to return to his work (he works in Podium) so cousin and I decided to leave. He dropped me off at the office since I left the car there.

My aunt came back from her short US trip yesterday and I got the fairy shirt I asked her to buy for me today. It looks pretty neat. I told her to buy me a shirt with a fairy design from Hot Topic since that's the only store I know which carries plus size fairy shirts. She also bought me a cool blouse, Almay deodorants, and Milano cookies. Gad! I'm so bored. Nothing happened to me today except for getting those stuff. This sucks. I'll just watch the ringtone dancer and maybe kill myself.

I want these stickers from HT!

And everything in Goreydetails.net!!!
