…for bibingka!

i went to a bank nearby this afternoon to pay some bills. across the street i saw this bibingka galapong store. i’ve been dying to eat bibingka from that store for months now. i didn’t even know the name of that store so when i saw it again this afternoon i thought of buying one.

…but sabi ko wag na lang kaya kasi may food naman ako sa house. and besides, my son & i have plans of visiting his ninang/my bestfriend next door. baka may meryenda na sya then kung wala saka ako bibili. kaso hindi na kami natuloy sa house ni bestfriend kaya umuwi na kami derecho. when we got home i thought of bibingka. i turned on my pc and still thinks of bibingka. so i Googled ferino’s bibingka’s telephone number(s). kahit anong search ko walang contact numbers. i saw two blogs that says "ferino delivers". but when i called the number, some girl from the Francisco family said she doesn’t know any contact number of their branches. (HOMAYGUDNEEES!!! kapamilya ka ba?) gusto ko sana ipa-deliver na lang kasi sleeping na ang baby ko at tinatamad na kong lumabas pa ulit. unfortunately wala talaga akong mapiga sa mga na-google ko. so i dialed 187 telephone directory. wala daw sa listing ang ferino’s….GRRRRRR!!!!! ano ba??? talk about malas (hehehe)

sobrang hindi ako mapakali. umiinit na ulo ko. lalo akong nagugutom sa kakaisip sa lecheng bibingka na yan (hahahaha)… sobra akong nag crave na hindi ko natiis at pinuntahan ko na yung store. when i reached the store i realized, kaya pala hindi ko ma-google ang ferino’s na malapit sa’min kasi HINDI pala sya ferino’s (bwahahahahahhahahaha)…sya pala ay Homemade Carrot Cake. kainis talaga ko. gutom lang ba talaga ‘to or what? =)  haaay!!! =)

so finally nabili ko na ang magical bibingka nila. it’s sooooo masarap but a bit expensive. it’s P110 a piece na good for two (2). apparently, it’s good for one (1) only today. yes, i’m eating my bibingka right now. wala ng makapipigil pa. at ako lang ang nakaubos grabe ang takaw ko hahahaha….sabi ko this must be good for the price at hindi naman ako nabigo. medyo malaki din sya so it’s really not bad. it has salted eggs, sugar & niyog on top, i think there’s kesong puti too. super masarap talaga sya. you should try it. kahit pa natikman nyo na sya hindi sya nakakasawa. but hey, this doesn’t mean i love ferino less, okay? masaya lang ako kasi na-satisfy ko ang craving ko for bibingka — kaagad. hehehehe

ano kaya ang next craving ko? abangan…..

A friend from one of the forums I joined wrote this cute poem.
I think t’was outta boredom but I’m very sure t’was outta love for us, his friends.
He wrote it 17 months ago and I’m still fond of reading it over and over again. Just love it! =)

Twas the night before Friday,

And all over the board,

The wannabes were posting,

Eager to whore.

Wolfies wax story!
Then Divinity’s cat!
A tribute to punk barbie,
Done by CB at that! (ehem…CB that’s me)

Sex with AJ,
and that damn Silly Thread!
Some chick hugging a mountain,
Then yet another Whore Thread!

And whence comes this dribble,
Thats rules our night?
From a cast of characters,
That’s way outta sight!

There’s Nati, and Wolfie,
And old Scooter too!
XXX weighs in,
But the list isn’t through.

CB and SaSSy with wit and charm,
And garcia with his rants.
There’s Zoe, the beautiful, full of grace,
And Iggy has a mouse in his pants.

There’s John, Robert,
And Madame too!
Oh no! Hell, look!
Pinto’s joined the zoo!

Where will it stop,
How can it end!
At 2000, 3000, then
Does it begin again?

Will Topless and Bangwang,
Put an end to our plight?
Will our fingers fall off,
As we type away the night?

Who knows and who cares,
The night never ends.
We will whore all night,
No matter who wins.

’twas 4 years ago when i had a major surgery when i donated my kidney to my older sister Sunday. it was the 11th of January 2003 and i can still remember that day on our way to the operating room of NKTI. i wanted the anesthesia to take effect immediately so i’d fall asleep and not see the hallways of the hospital. i was shivering. but did i ever thought of backing out? hell NO!!!

looking way way back….i hesitated to donate at first (that’s just normal isn’t it?). of course i was scared…so scared that i cried when i first found out that my blood type matched hers. for me it was a confirmation that this donation thing will and must push thru whether i like it or not. i had hesitations and made a lot of excuses…but thanks to a little complicated situation in my peaceful life i decided to make a big difference and make it more meaningful, after all she’s my sister (lol). after acquiring all the required lab tests, all gave a positive match…we were A PERFECT MATCH.

the surgery lasted for about 6-7hours. "where’s Sunday? is she alright?" were my thoughts when i woke up after the transplant, still feeling groggy. YES WE MADE IT! it was a success!!! thanks to all who prayed and keeps on praying for the 2 of us. there was a very low chance of rejection –THANK GOD!!! God is really good. HE wanted Sunday to live a longer life, build her own family and be an inspiration to others. it’s been 4 years now that she still carries around with her my kidney and living a clean healthy life with Curtis in WA. she pursued her career as a banker and has fulfilled her dream to work on a food chain…nice job eh! all these are "answered prayers".

4 years ago when i thought my life was miserable….wasted….living without a purpose. then i realized i was totally wrong when Vhic said he’s lucky to have me. at first i wondered why, but now i understand what he meant when he greeted me "happy lifesaver’s day!"

I hate the way you talk to me,

and the way you cut your hair.

I hate the way you drive my car,

I hate it when you stare.

I hate your big dumb combat boots

and the way you read my mind.

I hate you so much it makes me sick,

it even makes me rhyme.

I hate the way you’re always right,

I hate it when you lie.

I hate it when you make me laugh,

even worse when you make me cry.

I hate it when you’re not around,

and the fact that you didnt call.

But mostly I hate the way I dont hate you,

not even close

not even a little bit

not even at all.

Before, hinahabol kita pero di mo ako
pinapansin. Tapos isang araw nawala ako,
hinanap mo ako at tinanong, "Bakit ka nagsawa?"
Ngumiti ako, "Hindi ako nagsawa. Natauhan
lang." Pwede mo kong lokohin pero wag kang
magpapahuli sakin. Pwede mo kong palitan pero
siguraduhin mong mas mahal mo siya sakin.
Pwede mo kong iwan pero siguraduhin mong kaya
mo. Kasi pag ako sobrang nasaktan, wala ka
nang babalikan.

Ang Boys?…….

Pag trip ka, magpapakilala. Kaibigan
kuno hanggang pumorma na. Tapos pag
nahulog ka na, ayun, goodbye na dahil sawa na
sila. Pero dapat walang iiyak at smile lang tayo.
Punyeta, anong silbi ng karma?
I fell in love and got hurt but I didn’t shed too much
tears nor did I ask him to love me again. Instead, I
stood up proudly and said, "Ganyan talaga ang
magaganda! Hindi bagay sa tanga!"
Simple lang para hindi ka masaktan. Kapag
minahal ka, mahalin mo din. Kapag ginago ka,
gaguhin mo rin. Pero kapag umiyak ka, tanga ka!
Ginago ka na nga, iiyakan mo pa?
Pag iniwan ka ng mahal mo, wag mo siyang
sisihin! Kausapin mo siya ng harap-harapan at
sabihin mong, "Ingat, tanga ka pa naman!"
Masakit pag iniwan ka ng mahal mo. Pero wag
kang magagalit ng husto. Kahit papano may
pinagsamahan naman kayo, diba? Kaya for the
last time yakapin mo siya at ibulong mo, "Gago,
kukulamin kita!"

Girls, talo daw tayo sa mga boys? Papayag
kayo? Sige, pag niligawan tayo, sagot agad. Pag
iniwan tayo? Ok lang. Kapag sinabi nilang, "Uy,
ex ko." Alam niyo sagot diyan? "Ay, ambisyoso."
If the one you love doesn’t love you back, don’t get
depressed. Just think about it for a while, maybe
cry a bit then wipe your tears and say, "Ang weird
naman niya. Di siya pumapatol sa magaganda!"
You only got one life so live it well., one heart so
take good care, one soul so keep it pure.
One boyfriend? What a waste!!!!!!! Make it two or
more! Sayang ganda natin!
Pag sinabi sayo ng mahal mo na ayaw na niya
sayo, hayaan mo lang. Wag kang iiyak at
magpapakagago! Imbis na iyakan mo siya, ngitian
mo lang at sabihin mo ang ganito,

"So, pano? Bye na! Naghihintay na ang kapalit mo!"
Who cares about break-ups? Oo nga, masakit.
Makirot sa puso.

Pero tandaan mo: a break-up
isn’t only an end to a relationship. It’s also a
beginning of a new one and an end to a living hell
called "EX!".
