clearly not for me

we currently ran out of our usual shampoo which is head and shoulders, especially the menthol variant so we had no choice but to use clear. we bought clear out of curiosity and well, the lure of the advertising world. hehe

and i must say, clear is not friendly to my scalp. not at all. for the past week, my scalp has been itchy and my hair dry and hard to dry. so, no we're not going to buy clear again.

we're sticking back to head and shoulders. even if we don't have dandruff, this brand has been really kind to my scalp. and the reason why i love h&s? because this is the only shampoo that delivers its promise. if it says menthol, you'll really feel that your scalp is a bit menthol-y? or you feel that usual tingling sensation when you eat menthol candy. there.

i'm going to buy h&s later when i get home. itchy scalp, this is too much!!

starting off wrong

i woke up today thinking that the day will start off great. but i guess i was wrong.

i take the jeep to the MRT guadalupe station then get off ortigas station. that's my morning routine to get to the office. on most days everything runs smoothly from falling in line to riding the MRT. but today was different. some girl pissed me off today. as i was falling in line at ortigas station, the line was unusually slow. it happened that these group of girls were holding up the line and made the usual 2 lane exit into a one lane. so imagine two lines merging. hassle.

so what has this got to do with me? well, of all bad timings, this certain girl cut my line, inserted her card, her card got rejected therefore she couldn't move the swivel bars. so i thought it was ok already, she got the card so i inserted mine, but what do i get? a rejected card. how can my card get rejected when it still has 78 pesos in there. so to avoid another hassle to the other people behind me, i directly went to the booth to fix my card. and what do you know the girl's there.

what did i do? i sort of told her off. i talked to the cashier and told her that this girl messed up the line and had my card rejected. i even added some finger pointing so that she'll know she's the one i'm talking about. what did the girl do? NOTHING she was literally oblivious to what happened and what she did.

but i wouldn't let her ruin my day. and i hope it won't happen to us again.

birthday date

last sunday, a day after aishi's birthday, we decided to go out. just the two of us, like before. we missed those days when we would just go out and eat and just enjoy each other's company. so after hearing mass, we decided to have dinner. he knew i was craving for pasta so we decided to eat again at A Veneto in Glorietta.

Never in our lives have we tasted carbonara so atasty and creamy and filling than in a veneto. it was heavenly and priced just right to share for two or three. and the pizza is equally divine. most of our friends and family would know that we like our pizza all meaty. i remember aishi and i would sometimes fight over the meat toppings in our shakey's pizaa because it was that good.

but i digress.

we went there around 7pm after hearing mass and braving the pouring rain on the way to glorietta. but after parking his car, the rain stopped. which is a good thing since we have to cross the street to get to the place.

what i didn't like about the place is the fact that there was a sign that said we have to wait to be seated but there's no one to greet us at the door. we stood there for a good 20 seconds in hte hopes that there would be someone to lead us to where we can sit. but i changed my mind since i was really hungry and craving their carbonara already. i could hear them calling my name. haha

so we decided to find a seat so that we could start eating. over-all service was ok, considering it was dinner-time and there were a lot of people. we didn't have to wait long for the food it arrived just in time for my stomach to give out one last growl.

i think we were done eating in 30 minutes. haha the food was that good. and we went home with happy tummies.

we ordered by the way:
carbonara with chicken
all meat pizza
and onion rings

next to a veneto, we love the carbonara from pasto too. but aishi can replicate the recipe. :)

touching lives

Don’t you just find it comforting sometimes that when you’re down and depressed, with no one to talk to and let out what you feel, the moment you park yourself in your blog and check on your past entries, you see someone who stumbled upon your blog and made his/her presence felt. That in one way or another, makes you feel that you are not alone; that there are these silent and not so silent souls in cyberspace willing to lend a comforting cyber hug. Or simply reading your entry makes it a big deal altogether.

I myself am guilty of this. There are days that I’m thinking that after all the blogs I’ve read that day, was there someone I touched or just cheered up in my own little way.

time to start anew

i just decided that it's time to start a new one. i just didn't feel the personality of the blog i had. it had brought so much "whatevers" that had taken away the intention of putting up the blog in the first place.

so anyway, time to start all over.
