Does anyone care?

I got this from Darwin's blog.. cute huh?!?!

Last night, I did some shopping at Circuit City. Actually, I just need an ink cartridge for the printer then I noticed that there's only one DVD left for Seinfeld Season 5 so I immediately grabbed it. The Batman Deluxe ed DVD with comics that Darwin wants is on sale too... so I bought the two. They run out of stock of Seinfeld Season 6 though so I bought it online.

I already got mom and Darwin a Christmas present. I hope they'll like it =P

Happy Thanksgiving!!! See yah!!!

Am I a gamer now?!?!

It all started with Nintendogs, then Guitar Hero, and now comes Mario Kart... So... am I a REALLY a gamer now?!?! I've been playing Mario Kart every night and it takes me an hour or two playing it without interruption.. There's this one time when I finished all tracks in one sitting... yeah, that's how addicting it is. What's cool about this game is you can play it online thru wifi and compete with other online racers. There are good racers that's hard to beat but there are beginners too (like me) who I pw'nd (gamer word for beaten.. hahaha yabang ko!!! =P. It's nice to compete with someone you don't know coz you feel the rush of winning. Earlier, I did 'time trial' to practice 'drifting'. I was about to go to McDonald to connect online coz there's one near my apartment with free wifi hotspot, but Law & Order SVU is playing... I watched the latter. =P

Yesterday, we went to Xbox 360 launch at Hawthorne and it's just crazy.. There's a long line waiting for its midnight sale. The first in line is this lady who stayed there the other night with a sign "I love my fiance this much"... crazy-crazy!!! It's like a camp site out there.. Actually, we heard about this launch at AOTS and Kevin (one of the hosts) was there to do the countdown. He's a funny guy. We had burger at McDonalds and played Mario Kart wifi. See pix below..

The line


The lady with her fiance. She's popular that night.
Looks like everyone interviewed her.. even us =P

Guitar Hero

I miss playing Guitar Hero.. It's a game for Ps2 and it's fun playing it coz there's a lot of good music and I can't help but "headbang". We'll play it again after Darwin's exam coz I kept the controller the other week so he can study =P . Oh, I remember the time when our band (Exordium) hangout at Ajie's pad and jam all day long.

I love to play Stellar by Incubus


Watching Wowowee at our spanking new High Def LCD TV (Did you notice all those remote controls? hehehe)


Darwin introduced me to "Attack of the Show" and I'm hooked to it right now. while I was reading Kevin Pereira's homepage (he's one of the hosts), I noticed the pictures of his friends playing Guitar Hero too. Cool =P (see http://www.kevinpereira.com)

The topic last night was about this guy who created a website where you'd post your ad for $1 per pixel. He already sold 600,000+ pixels so that means he already have $600K... and he got in 3 months ONLY!! I hate him!!! Check this out.. http://www.milliondollarhomepage.com/

Last Friday, we had dinner at Obi's place. We watched the Lakers game (we lost.. huhuhu) and listened to BEP's songs from my ipod til it run out of battery. They hooked my ipod to this cheap PC speaker but still, it's good music. We ate at 9ish and I had salad (oh, I love the balsamic vinaigrette), grilled squid, roasted chix and pasta. I got home at 11ish and Darwin is already sleeping. He must be really tired...



With my co-workers


Saturday, did some laundry. We just stayed home and watched the shows recorded in Tivo. Sunday, we went to Burbank after church to hangout at Barne's and Noble.. We had some coffee then I watched Bewitched from the laptop while Darwin's studying. It's all good.

Got this from Alanis' website..
http://www.alanis.com

And yeah.. we're gonna watch her show. I can't wait anymore!!! After 10 years of waiting (I saw her Jagged Little Pill concert last 1995 in Araneta).. She also has a new album coming on Nov 15. FYI to all Alanis fans!!

The tickets are already SOLD OUT!!! And it's selling in eBay for $500 per tix. That's crazy. The original price is only $22.. I guess she really love her fans.

Thanks Tins and John for getting our tickets.

Photo shoot

We had a photo shoot at work this morning. It was very awkward coz the photographer is my co-worker. But he's good though, he has won a lot of awards back home and I think he's going to submit this pictorial as an entry or something. I volunteered to be the first to do it since all of them don't wanna go first and you know, just to get over it. hehehe I can't wait to see how it looks like... I'd want to learn photography too but I guess it will take some time to be good at it.

Earlier, I was craving for tacos so Archie offered to buy lunch at Tito's Tacos =P I'd want to get the supreme tacos with sour cream like what Taco Bell has but Tito's Tacos don't put sour cream on their tacos.. =P I know they're famous and all but I don't like their tacos.. it's too oily.

Alanis Morissette's gonna have a concert at Avalon in Hollywood on December 1 but the ticket will be on sale tomorrow. I instantly remembered Tins coz her boyfriend (John) works at Ticketmaster. I asked her if she can reserve 2 tix for me and she said he will =P Oh, I cant wait anymore. I hope we'd get the tix!!!

It's Apprentice night today and I wonder who's gonna get fired =P

NBA, Jazz & Bday!!!

I just love Kobe's sense of style =)

Anyways, we watched the last part of the game. Lakers won!!! wooohoo!!! And we saw Kobe's heart-stopping shot.

We setup the new Plasma TV and we watched Chicago. C'mon babe Why don't we paint the town? And ALL THAT JAZZ...

Today is Mom's birthday. Had a teleconference with my mom and my sister MM earlier and we talked until my pinoy card got all used up.

It was all good.

Almost...

I've just received my credit card from Kristof's Jewelers.. I almost bought those expensive jewelries last Thursday... . Imagine, a total of $5,000 for 3 necklaces and a pair earring. How can I pay everything off? I'm not ready to invest on jewelries and the only reason I was on that store is to get my wallet. Yeah, I left my wallet at the mall (yeah, Im so careless... hehehe) the day before and I have to get it from the lady that works at Kristof's Jewelers. She told me that she saw it on the sofa and she decided to keep it instead of handing it over to the security guard. Good thing I have my cell number in my wallet and she was able to contact me. Out of appreciation, I accepted her offer to open an account which lead to fitting all those nice jewelries. =P I called Jill and told her about this and she can't stop laughing. She knows I'm not into jewelries and I rarely wear what my mom gave me.. So there!!! =P

Saturday, did some laundry in the morning then I reformatted my laptop that night. I was hesitant at first coz I'm not sure if I have made backup of all my files.. Actually, the only important files on my laptop are pictures and the rest are garbage..hahaha. All my MP3s are on my iPod and I have already burned all my DVD movies, so I guess everything was covered. The only thing that I don't want on a newly reformatted PC is to re-install all the apps. The first application I installed was Norton Antivirus then I did Windows System Update so I'd get protected from virus before I connect to the internet. I still have a lot of things to install and I'm not sure if I've kept the cracks of the software I got for free =P Anyways, we watched Jackie Brown that we Tivo'd last week and the movie was very Quentin Tarantino. Love the music, love the settings, love the plot... I even DL'd its soundtrack and it's one of my most played music on my iPod... it's "Didn't I Blow Your Mind This Time" by The Delfonics.

Sunday, I had a haircut coz I'm getting bored with my long locks. =P I had it layered but I think it got too short. I like it though. Afterwards, we went to Best Buy coz they have this good deal on Plasma TVs and we can't afford to let it pass. They don't have the one that we like though so we have to wait til tomorrow, Nov 2. We had dinner at Tita Zita's house then we said our goodbyes. Missed mass =( Watched the Halloween Special of Magandang Gabi Bayan and that scared the hell out of me.. I wasn't able to finish the whole documentary coz I get goosebumps and Darwin kept on scaring me. LOL

Monday, we went to Ikea to get a TV stand so by that time the Plasma TV is ready, it's easy to hook up. I watched Wowowee and The Buzz while Darwin's assembling the TV stand =P These 2 shows are my guilty pleasures. hahaha I helped him once in a while and I fixed the wirings coz I want it all hidden and organized. =P
