Work’s hell, as always. I haven’t even told people that we got a new alaga from siyete. Siya na yun, if ya know. I also went to Laguna for my alagas’ Hamon ng Nginiig. Shocks this is quite an experience! We went there in search of this haunted house. The challenge was to find the clues leading to that black paper that will tell you that you are now a member of the astig league of nginiig but you have to go through heaps of “spine-chilling” places to find the clue. Anyway, maoui, gabb and kuya roden were there. The taping rolled just before 1am last sept.16 and maoui was the first to go in- alone! Without a cameraman! She needs to hold the camera and take footages of herself while inside this creepy house. I’m not exaggerating here- the house is really creepy even on the outside. And its not just because its already 1am but because it really is. The story was that a little boy fell down the stairs in the house and he was in a coma after that incident. At that time, people didn’t really know daw what to do with someone in a coma so they buried the kid alive. Now the little boy haunts by the stairs of the house. Also the real owner of the house still haunts the place- ala bahay ni LOLO. Maoui didn’t finish the challenge but gabb and kuya roden did. Haaay, with all those stories plus it was raining heavily that night, sheesh! I went back to the van and slept… well, I tried to but hey, I was worried noh. We got back around 8 am the following day (it took us almost 2 hours at SLE because the rain caused flood in some areas and may ibang sasakyan na tumirik. Anyway, I went home and found out that there was no electricity in our area! And to top it off, there’s a wake just outside our apartment! That was very comforting. I just came from nginiig and umuwi ako sa walang kuryente at may lamay pa! crap.

Last Saturday, I had a terrible day during field work and it was total chaos. For me ha but you wouldn’t really know if you wouldn’t ask how I was. It was such a bad day- kulang sa tulog, lipat sa location, nag empty batt, di ko naitext ang boss ko coz wala ngang batt, dumating pa si lola kaya nagka-hassle sa pagsundo sa akin coz her flight was super delayed (from 8pm ETA naging 10:15pm! Duh!!) and when she got home, I was supposed to sleep but of course, I had to go down and see her first. Not that I’m complaining but its been a long day talaga.

Half of my Sunday was spent at Harrison plaza for asap mania. I had problems pa going there coz I didn’t know how to get there so I troubled people pa for directions. Btw, some people saw us on tv laughing, clapping or cheering for rico barrera (d first housemate to be eliminated from pinoy big brother) and I heard we really looked stupid, courtesy of my brother. Another long day of working and so when I finally got home, I took my much needed sleep and rest (but wasn’t able to eat even) and woke up 7am the following day na. ha! That’s how its done!

I saw greg behrendt last week at oprah, talking about his book “HE’S JUST NOT THAT INTO YOU” and it re-awakened something that I should have long since instilled in me. Labo ba? Hehe. Basta yun. May naalala lang akong mga dapat kong ginagawa. sayang I wasn’t able to go to his book signing and stand up comedy sa greenbelt.. oh well. For the girls out there who don’t have this book yet—better get one. It’s a must-have! And guys, buy it for you girl friends. It would help if you read the book as well. You might learn a few things also. It is sooooo insightful and absolutely true! I agree with what the things that he said in the book. Basta go get a copy and see what I mean.
