22@29 : what I did.


Since I was on a day leave or off from work, I just spend my time in gateway. A friend told me I should have gone to Makati, then I laughed and said, "ang layo ng Makati, mahirao umuwi pag rush hour." Anyway, I didn't actually pampered myself though I just treated myself with a nice mocha iceblend and triple decker cheesecake from The Coffeebean & Tea leaf.

I also took the time to fix myself, well.. I wore my white tube dress and my knit jacket to cover up some skin. After finishing a relaxing blend of mocha and cheese I went to Rustan's to "shop-look" haha if that's the correct term. I didn't intend actually to shop but since I have a 1k worth of GC from Rustan's I might as well spend it on that day. I first thought of getting a new pair of shoes unfortunately, they don't have the kind of shoes I want. Then I went over to see branded Bags like Nine west and Liz Claiborne and even XOXO. They all are lovely! haha. I liked one bag of LC, the stripped green world work bag. I'm having second thoughts of buying it. haha it cost more than P2000.00. It's so nice but it's not cheap. haha. I had the money to buy it but I didn't. (kuripot talaga!! haha)
Next stop, I went over the perfume section to see and smell fragrances lang (kahit hindi ako talag bibili). It's not on my list, I still have my VS and my JS dessert treats perfume. There was this sales guy who approached me and gave me a sample scent of Versace for men and one for women. It's nice. He did what he does best, market the product. haha but he wasn't successful. It smelled good though but I'm not really into expensive perfumes. I just told him, I'll just inform him (referring to my boyfriend). ^_^
Then I went to the cineplex area. It's the last day of cinemanila film fest. Movies from Lino Brocka were shown and there was a mini party as a tribute to the fest.
Some of the now showing movies include: Highschool Musical 3, The House Bunny, a horror film that I can't remember (my apologies)
I chose to watch the House Bunny. It's a good movie, funny story and I like it.
That was the simple pampering I gave myself even with a stressful work load. I just need some more time off. =)

SAME SIDE OF THE MOON -Corinne May

Same Side of the Moon - Corrinne May


I'm looking out the window where we sat to watch the stars
There's a chill within the air, it makes my heart long for your touch
You may be miles away
But as I kneel to pray

I see the same side of the moon
That we'll looking on when the world turns blue
And know that time and space can't come between me and you
We share the same side of the moon
And though you'll never see all my tears shine through
I know I'll never be that far from you
If we're both looking on the same side of the moon

I picture you across the ocean, in your corner of the world
I pray the wind will blow my voice and gently whisper in your ear
Your night may be my day
And though the seasons change

It's still the same side of the moon
That we'll be looking on when the world turns blue
And know that time and space can't come between me and you
We share the same side of the moon
And though you'll never see all my tears shine through
I know I can't be that far from you
If we're both looking on the same side of the moon
I know I can't be that far from you
If we're both looking on the same side of the moon
