BitterSweetSingapore

I just arrived from Singapore last Sunday, though it was just a 4 days and 3 nights vacation, panalo naman ... it wouldn't be that fun if it weren't for Den. He was the one who graced that trip and to tell you honestly, I was there because of him - because he's there to attend a 3-day seminar, that's why he tagged me along.

I arrived Thursday afternoon. The first thing I did when I saw eh niyakap ko sha and told him, "Den, we're in Singapore :) " We went to the Orchard Rd., took pictures, did window shopping, ate dinner, then we headed to Boat Quay for another bunch of photo ops ;)

Friday, 23 March 2007. He left around 9AM for a short meeting while I left the room around 10AM to Tanglin Mall for breakfast, a li'l shopping, frolic at the Singapore Botanic Garden, and went back to the Hotel kze I wanna poop na. (bad trip pa kze i forgot our hotel rm no., I've to wait for Den's reply, hahaha jologs!)

At around 2PM of the same day, we headed to the famous Sentosa Island. Major photo ops session ito, dude! kodakan kaliwa't kanan ang ginawa namin, wala nang kebs sa mga tao, basta kme posing here, there and everywhere. Nagcable ride pa kme (round trip ha), SOSYALLL (si Den nagbayad ng fare ko). Cguro kung naka jologs cam lang kme eh rolyo rolyo na ng film ang naubos namin sa cable car pa lang. Nakahiga, nakaupo, nakangiti, nakasimangot kuno, nakaemote look, name it we have it!

Meron din kmeng pics na naka "baho" costume si Den, ayun si mokong nagbayad ng $5.00 para magpapicture nang nakasukbit sa leeg nya yung yellow snake. Ok na sana, eh ang kulit, sinabi na kzeng wag na magcostume, nagcostume pa din kaya ayun mukha shang ewan sa pix ... plus not to mention the ever so red heart sa head dress nya, BWAHAHAHA!!!

Isa pang makaubos pix ay yung sa The Underwater World, heinaku dude posing nanaman sa bawat sulok. Mapa jellyfish, si Nemo, shark, CBA (cute boy alert) eh meron. Muntik pa nga ko ma soplak ni Den coz he was asking me to take his pic with the fishes, eh biglang may lumitaw na briton na CBA, ayun shempre tagal ko pang i-focus yung cam para maganda angulo ni boylet, naboljak ako ni mokong, BWAHAHAHA!!!

After our Sentosa adventure, we went back to the mainland (naxx parang USA), we had dinner, a li'l window shopping again and we headed back to our coño hotel na, in preparation for our Friday night gimmik. On our way back to the Hotel, mga dalawang beses lang naman akong nadulas-dulas, ang slippery naman kze ng kalye nila, pati si Den nadudulas din ... pero shempre yung tili nya hindi kasing eskandaloso nung tili ko.

Shempre when we got back to the room, yosi-yosi muna, view ng pix, higa-higa, kanchawan at tigbakan to the max. Kme lang dalawa sa room pero ang ingay namin ... or should i say ang ingay ni Den, pinaglihi ata sa pwet ng manok si mokong, di na ko tinigilan sa kakaputak nya ... lahat na pinansin at walang pinalampas ... WHEWW!!! Nung mejo naririndi na ko sa kakaputak nya, hiniritan ko na, "Den-den ang ingay mo, sobra!" ... akala nyo ba nawindang si mokong sa hirit ko, ABA hindi, sumagot pa - "pasensha ka ako pinakasalan mo", WHOAA, i could just imagine living with him. Yung scenario namin sa Trader's Hotel, Singapore, eh yun na yun. That'll be our normal day, sigawan, kanchawan, tigbakan at kung anu-ano pa ... pero masaya naman, walang away! Naisip ko nga, panalo tandem namin, kahit para kmeng aso't pusa kung mag usap, eh we still get along well. What's important is that we're happy with the way things are going between us, kme man o hindi, kme pa din in the end (gets mo?, kme lang nakakaintindi non, hahaha).

Fly na kme sa aming gimmik, shempre naka japorms ako ng konti. I wore a backless top and pati si mokong naka japorms din, ang bango pa nya. Sa japorms kong yun pinag commute lang naman ako, MRT naman at mejo mahaba-habang lakad ... NANJI, pero may choice ba ko? Kung ibang lalake lang yon eh malamang nasoplak ko na, kung nanliligaw, hala busted na! Pero shempre si Denden yon, shut up ako! Haha, takusa?!

1st stop Ministry of Sounds, PANALO ever. Astig ang ilaw at ang mismong ambiance, may water-water chuvanes pa sa loob. Next stop Taboo, shempre dito rumampa ang mokong, mega dance sha at may nakilala pa ... teka teka teka, akala ko ba bawal tayo kumarir sa Singapore, one on one tayo dito ... pero shempre si Denden yon kaya shut up! ;)

We got home around 3.30AM, bad trip si mokong kze bitin sha don sa karir nya, plus kinakanchawan ko pa - ang torpe kze. Nung mejo napapadami na kanchaw ko, hiniritan ako to shut up kze I'm making him feel bad daw pa, bwahahaha .... buti pa kme ni Dan (Bora) eh nag kiss, sila wala ... exchange of names lang at dance-dance, BWAHAHAHA!!!

Saturday, the day of Den's flight back to Manila :( when had breakfast muna at Mc Do, then a li'l frolic at the mall then nag check out na kme. Shempre i have to transfer hotel kze sa Trader's $350.00 / night, don sa nahanap namin $50.00 / night lang ... yun nga lang mejo jologs yung area, parang Quaipo! When we got inside my room na don sa jologs hotel, nanood muna kme ng TV sandali. Nagbilin na din si boyfriend na mga kung anu-anong ingat ka dito eklabu. Natats ako don, naxxx he cares for me - dapat na ba kong kiligin don?! Nasad ako when we we're in the cab na, i told myself na "this is it, I'm in Singapore with no one beside me". Kaya ayun after ko magshopping-shopping sa Orchard nagkulong na ako sa room. I tried to go out to check the vicinity, pero andaming 'baho' at nag iinuman sila sa kalye at lahat sila pinag titinginan ako, kaloka!!!

I called it a night by 9.30PM, goodnight Singapore!

By 6AM, bangon na coz i still have a plane to catch!

Ciao Singapore, till we meet again ;)

Singapore Frolic

it's been a week now since i first stoop in the grounds of the tiger country, singapore. great country - it's clean and and it's pretty safe there though some of the locals may look a bit creepy, haha. no beggars, a few cute guys :), expensive cigars, no chewing gums ... well those are just a few things that Den and i have observed during our "pre-wedding honeymoon" in singapore.

anyways, here are some of our pix ... it's for y'all to see how much fun we had there ... :)

happy viewing

what do you think are we doing in this crazy shop?! Hahaha :)

The Underwater World, Sentosa Island, Singapore

Guru Den! (He hates this pic!) :)

as I pose for a "sweet-innocent" smile

... we're just friends, what do you think?! ...

Conviction of the Heart

I dunno what's with this heartwarming song that i everytime i hear it, it makes me smile and it soothes me :) esp if it's being sung by Mike and Anjo, simply KUDOS!!!!


Where are the dreams that we once had?
This is the time to bring them back.
What were the promises caught on the tips of our tongues?
Do we forget or forgive?
There's a whole other life waiting to be lived when...
One day we're brave enough
To talk with Conviction of the Heart.
And down your streets I've walked alone,
As if my feet were not my own
Such is the path I chose, doors I have opened and closed
I'm tired of living this life, Fooling myself, believing we're right, when...
I've never given love
With any Conviction of the Heart
One with the earth, with the sky
One with everything in life
I believe we'll survive If we only try...
How long must we wait to change
This world bound in chains that we live in
To know what it is to forgive, And be forgiven? I
t's been too many years of taking now.
Isn't it time to stop somehow?
Air that's too angry to breathe, water our children can't drink
You've heard it hundreds of times
You say your aware, believe, and you care, but...
Do you care enough
To talk with Conviction of the Heart?

...wait lang commercial muna ...

wahhhhh, i was suppose to write an entry regarding my "Fantacia Experience" over the weekend, but unfortunately, i just can't focus myself - been trying my best though, but i just couldn't. Been absent minded since this morning, all i could think of wight now is DAN DAN DAN ... :)

i still haven't recovered from the "kilig" blues i had last night with him, it was such a blast ... he's the most good looking guy i've ever met ... so much identical with Ben Affleck. Sigh, will i ever get the chance of spending more bonding sessions with him? --- i don't know, i guess it's all up to me and to Dan. It's something to look forward to ... just like what happened last night, whatta surprise!!!!

Thursday Thoughts

It's true that in order to attain a good relationship, both parties must give their genuine shares ... for it takes two to tango, remember?! As long as there's Love, Honesty, Acceptance, Respect and Trust, everything's gonna be all right.

Our next stop, Singapore! :)

Bingo Pasaporte!

Alas ocho ng umaga, Sabado, gising na ko! Bakit kamo, kze sasamahan ko yung magaling kong BF na magpa renew ng kanyang pasaporte. Habang ako’y abala, aba sha pala’y natutulog pa – panalo diba! Mag aalas diyes na nang umaga (10AM usapan namin) noong kami’y nag usap, sabi nya, “in 30 mins ill be there”, sa loob ko, kumusta ka naman, Malabon pa bahay mo, travel time pa lang kulang na 30 mins, kaya tumahimik na lang ako.

Mga alas onse ng umaga nag tinext ko sha, “wer u na?”, at ang sagot, “EDSA na”, kumusta ka naman dyan eh ang haba kaya ng EDSA! It’s almost 12 noon, gutom na ko at isa pa, nasa bahay pa din ako, maya-maya ayan na bumubusina sa tapat ng gate namin, lumabas na ko. Di pa tapos, sabi nya sha na bahalang mag palitrato sa greenhills noong Byernes, ayun, abala sa gym kaya walang litrato ang mokong. Sa Ever muna kme, papicture sha tapos kumain na din kme. Bago magpalitrato, binilin ko na, “Den, mag smile ka ha!”, hindi ako pinakinggan at pinili pang makinig don sa babae sa Shop, kaya ayun mukha shang naluging bumbay, hindi nakatitis kaya nagpalitrato ulit at buti naman ngumiti na sha … cute!

Manananghali na kme, sabi nya, “it’s on me” … buti naman, pinag antay mo lang naman ako at muling pag aantayin habang inaantay bagong pasaporte mo.

Quarter to 2 (PM) nang marating namin ang Register of Deeds ng QC Hall. ‘Nak ng tokwa andaming tao at ang init! Parang fans day ni April Boy, parang mga kuto yung mga tao, malamang iba sa kanila amoy araw na din sa haba ng pila under the sun. Peste pa yung contact, walang nagawa, pumila din kme, walang special treatment, GRRRR!!!

Maya-maya, dina sha ngumingiti, alam kong imbyerna na din sha sa haba ng pila at sa init … eh kumusta ka na dyan, para sayo ‘to. Kung ikaw gumising ng maaga di sana ganito inabot natin. Sabi ko pa sa sarili ko, si Mr. Manager ayun nakapila, walang kalaban-laban, sabay ngiti sa sarili.

Lumabas ako sandali, tumambay sa kotse at nagpatugtug, inayos na din yung Bora album namin. Ang init, shempre di naman ako makapag aircon – kapal ko na non! Napansin ko ang samo’t saring laman ng kotse nya, pati ba naman uniform ng kaopisina eh naka hanger kasama ng mga damit nya – kumusta, bat andon yon?! Ito pa, pati mga empty bottles ng mineral water eh andon pa, mga lumang resibo na naninilaw na, mga baryang nakakalat sa sahig, pati mga fliers ng mga sari-saring condominiums – name it, it’s there … parang si Mr. Bogus yung kotse nya, baka nga pati martilyo, pako, lagare eh meron don. Abala pa ko sa kotse nang bigla shang tumawag, pasok daw ako coz he needs additional pictures.

Noong malapit na sha sa window, kinausap ako, akala ko naman kung anong sasabihin, yun pala picturan ko daw sha. Pati habang pinapasa daw nya papeles nya, picturan ko sha … PANALO diba? Photographer pa pala ko ngayon, ako naman si gaga pinicturan nga! :)

Habang inaantay ang alas syete para sa releasing, umalis muna kme, gusto daw nya magpagupit, fine! Sa Capelli Salon kme … inisip ko panibagong pagtutunganga nanaman ito kaya ayun, cge magpagupit ka, ako magpapawax --- KIKAY!!! Shempre nauna akong matapos sa kanya, pagbaba ko patapos na rin sha. Sa kotse di ko pa mashado napansin yung new style ng buhok nya sa likod, later on nakita ko din – kapansin-pansin kze … mukaha shang RHINOCEROUS!!! Hahaha!

Gutom na kme, pasado ala sinko na no’n kaya next stop, Hotshots Burger sa Morato (naxx namis ata namin pareho ang aming Tt days).

Ala sais y medya ng gabi balik QC Hall na kme, ayun andon pa rin ang mga kutong lupa, di nababawasan. Tambay muna kme sa kotse, si Mr. Manager ayaw mainitan kaya naka aircon kme – totyal!!! Maya-maya lumabas na rin kme at sa wakas tinawag na din sha, panibagong pila sa loob, habang ako nasa labas siniset ang susunod na pagkuha ng picture nya. Alas syete y medya ng gabi lumabas na sha bitbit ang bagong pasaporte … laki ng ngiti ni mokong --- dapat lang kinarir nya yata ang pilang milya-milya!


Ang masasabi ko lang, enjoy pa din yung araw na yon … nakakatuwa kahit na mejo naburo ako sa kahihintay sa kanya at sa bagong pasaporte. BINGO!

my BESTEST vacation

lt all started when i called it off w/ a former partner, i told myself that i deserve a treat from all the shitty stuff i've been through. So to make the long story short, my ever beloved soulmate / fiance suggested that we go to Bora to celebrate whatever it is that's worth celebrating. And so we did!

He was already in Bora when i boarded my plane in the afternoon of March 1, Thursday. I arrived in Station 2 dinner time .... and that's the start of my greatest summer getaway!

Scroll down and see for your self ...

To end this entry, I'd like to say that a break up is nothing but a whole bunch of fun, esp. if you're accompanied by realiable and true friends.

Bora, 'till we meet again! Mmwah!!!

inxs:

bitin pero panalo talaga!!!
