And oh, 2008 is also a Leap Year, right? Lucky are those who were born on the 29th of February!
So Happy New Year, everyone! I only have a few and simple New Year's Resolution for this year. That is, to find a good job where I can settle in for the year and also to save enough money for Gwen and I to go to Korea by the year 2009.
Quite a goal, huh? Haha! Well yeah, I actually thought that I wouldn't be able to live up on my dream of going to Korea because I actually thought that I would be alone if I'll go there. But then, I was enlightened when Gwen texted me and told me that she also wanted to go to Korea badly. As in badly! For I never expecte that she would be so ecstatic about it that she always talks to me about it.
Crazy, eh? Well yeah, I was so happy that finally, I was able to find someone who will be actually willing to go with me to the promised land and because of this goal, I'm sure I'll be more determined to find a good job for me to settle in.
I have a few Job goals for this year. Costumer Management on Call Centers, Medical Transcriptionist, entertainment Transcriptionist, Hotel Front Desk and English Tutor. Well, I had those target jobs based on my skills and abilities.
Since I am so confident that I'm actually good in English speaking, Those jobs would be suitable for me. Well except for the fact that my Profession is actually a Nurse. haha!
So yeah, I just hope this year, I would be more productive than the year 2007 and with my goals, I will work hard.
Not to mention, I wanna go to Manila to see the Witchies! =]

It'a been a couple of days since Christmas and I only got the time to write a blog about it. hehehe.
So yeah, Have I really been good this year? I really can't say yes because in this year, a lot of things has happened to me and I did a lot of awful things, too. But despite that, I've been pretty happy probably because of friends and family who were always there for me.
So I've been totally broke a few days before Christmas. Jeez, salaries didn't work much. I spent most of it on my new cellphone and so, I wasn't able to save more for presents. I wasn't able to buy much presents for my family and my friends, too. But I promised them that I'm gonna buy them one although it'll be later than New Year. haha. They'll understand, anyway.
So yeah. We had a simple celebration last Christmas eve. It didn't feel like Christmas though because as usual, our village remained silent despite the ticking of the clock to 12 midnight. Why's that? Well, we all know that Firecrackers and the likes are banned in Davao City. It's fine though. I'm not much a fan of fireworks anyway. hehe.
So yeah, we had some nice stuff with the poor that's why we only had a few bunch for our Noche Buena because we gave food for homeless people sleeping on an open park in our Downtown. We'll be doing the same on New Year's eve.
It was fun, though. We went to the newly opened People's Park on Christmas and had fun there and then we went to this antique shoppe which has caught people's attention for being the brightest this Christmas.
Somehow, although it was a plainly simple celebration, I had so much fun probably because we were able to do things that we don't usually do.
So yeah, I guess I have been good this year.

so sinamahan ko sis ko sa palengke last friday because she said she wanted to buy veggies there instead of in the supermarket. i haven't been on a public market for a long time so i decided to go with her and as i stepped on the ill-smelling place, i've realized na parang sobrang arte ko yata lately.
i mean, when my sis and i went out of the car, i immediately inhaled the foul smell that only can be smelled on a public market. i covered my nose with my hanky and i've noticed that i was frowning to myself as we were walking along the "aisle", my sister looking for some nice veggies to buy.
so habang busy si sister sa pagpili, i was busy looking around naman, hoping to find something interesting like rats or cockroaches or the likes. hahaha. interesting? ironic, right? it was really weird, i'm not saying that i'm really maarte or what pero i've just realized how sensitive i get when i go to places that i wasn't used to go.
so after a while, my sister asked me to go to the parking lot with my bro and wait for her there. the parking lot was by the back of the "veggie department". while my bro and i were waiting for my sis to come back, i saw some guys cleaning up carrots on a huge basin. what surprised me was that these guys actually stepped over the carrots just like they were crushing grapes to make into wine. my goodness! so that's how they clean carrots, eh? and worse, one guy wtill has his slippers on and who knows where he came from? where he stepped those damn slippers?
then my bro jokingly told me, "neym, yung americans, diba kinakain nila ng hilaw yung carrots?" and i was like, "ewwwwwww" hahaha!! oh well, i know i was overacting but to eat something that someone stepped on? wouldn't that be too degrading?
oh well, i guess i've just lived a lot through modernity where we used to shop on shopping malls and supermarkets. where we couldn't see dirty stuff and ill-battered rodents and where we can be sure that veggies are cleaned in an acceptable way.
on the lighter and off-topic note, i got a new cellphone! Sony Ericsson Z610i!

we could start with the anime first. erwin, my friend recommended this anime to me, telling me that it was really good and sweet. so being an anime addict, i also tried to watch the series. erwin and i were chatting on YM while i was watching it. he told me to watch the first two episodes for a while and tell him what i think.
well, what do you say, i ended up watching all 11 episodes in just 5 hours! hahaha! oh well, more than, i guess because i stopped for a while to eat dinner. but yeah, i was totally drawn to the story especially because i can relate to it. awww...
it's just a simple funny and hilarious love story between a girl who is unusually tall and a guy who is unusually short who aren't even on the verge of being very nice to each other. both of them always fight that they were even dubbed as "All Hanshin Kyojin" the japanese comedy duo.
but we all know that despite the hatred to each other, people who seemed to get closer really will fall in love. what touched me most in this story was that Otani Atsushi does a lot of sweet things to Koizumi Risa that she actually fell in love with him. i kinda hate that part though as it stereotyped the women being always weak and usually the first ones to fall in love. well, maybe i felt this way because in my case, i was also the first one to fall in love before. haha...
well anyway, the most amazing thing in this story was when the two main characters remained friends and how risa was determined to make otani love her despite being rejected twice and in the end, she didn't fail because just right on her birthday, under the starry sky and the fireworks, otani declared his love for risa as he kissed her passionately.
awwww, this series really made me scream, cry and laugh as i watched all 24 episodes. there was never a dull episode here and it was a really awesome story that it made me think how intelligent japanese people are for actually making this kind of love story. and even if it's just an anime, it really can touch everyone's hearts.
well of course, the concept of the movie still hasnt' changed but what was amazing with the movie were the actors Fujisawa Ema (Risa) and Koike Teppei (Otani). i actually thought that this would be dull because it's live action and it's kinda hard to copy the facial expressions made in the anime but i was wrong. the actors definitely portrayed the animated characters so well that i also loved this movie so much.
plus, there's a bonus! we all know that WaT member koike teppei played the main guy part here. he definitely gave otani's character a blast that i can't help falling in love with him over and over again. he's really a hottie and he's so much into his character that i can definitely see the cartoon otani in him.
so yeah, i guess you guys should definitely watch this! it may sound absurd, knowing that it's an anime, but it's totally different. it's something that'll really be kept in your mind, for all of your life as you try to understand how it really feels to fall in love at the very odd time. =]
definitely 5 stars

ZMOG!! i definitely have to lay my hands on the death note notebook collection that i've seen at the mall earlier! it really killed me when i saw it!
it wasn't much expensive actually but while i was there, i didn't have enough money with me that time because i only went to the mall not for shopping reasons so i wasn't much prepared when i saw the notebook. but one thing came into my mind...i really have to grab it and make it mine!
awwww, i knew i won't be able to sleep well this time thinking about it but i also knew that i would definitely get it because i want it too bad!! hahaha!!
