So valentine's came last saturday, and we can all predict what happened then.  Lots of flowers were killed to show your love.  People gave fat-laden chocolates to loved ones.  For sure, all the motels are packed all day.  And lingerie sales probably boosted up too.  Let me correct that, not just lingerie, sexy lingerie.

Enough with the bitterness, valentine's day wasn't so bad for me here in far away.  Food always makes things better.  And what better food place to go to than

I had lunch there with the housemates.  tell me if this doesn't make up for the lack of having someone to cuddle this day:

four cheese pasta, chicken madeira, pecan turtle cheesecake (or something like it), and dulce de leche cheesecake

The rest of the day was spent embrassing myself in the mall in front of a videocam.  No, don't ask.  But I did get a fugly big bag for my effort.

So I'm getting used to this noworktilidieofboredom again.  Seems to keep happening to me at least every year (cos yeah, preschool and break has sem breaks like that).  I do know I am so going to die when I get back to work again and find out on my first day that my brain has atrophied into a peanut.

This post has a point.  I just forgot it.  Gad!  peanut-sized brain I tell you.  And it's only almost a month.

So what have I been doing aside from the non-stop eating which only makes the tummy bigger and nothing else (bah!), and the sleeping at random hours of the day, and the driving the boyfie crazy with sudden outbursts aimed to make him crazier than I am?  Absolutely nothing.  Thank goodness for the project365 camwhoring (yes, again with the shameless shameless plugging), something actually occupies my time.  Of course I could also spend the time reading handouts sitting in my bag for weeks now so brain wouldn't actually completely disappear, but I'm just not in the mood.  I will hopefully be in the mood soon though.  What with the NY trip this weekend being cancelled and all.  Annoying, annoying, annoying.  I hate it when my plans don't push through.  I'm a little OC that way.  I like my schedules, they're neat and FIXED. 

Also, advance Happy Hearts Day people.  This should've been the first valentine I could've actually spent with someone, if he wasn't like a few thousand miles away from where I am!  It's the thought that counts, but bah!  Still sucks.  I will hopefully get the hang of this cos it does get a little bit frustrating, and its only been a few weeks.  *sigh*  Must be all the things I don't know getting to me.  I hate, hate not knowing how things are supposed to end.  I like the knowing, it's my comfort zone.  I'm so far from my comfort zone right now, I'm turning into an emotional mess.  Every little thing just bugs me.  How dare he says this, how could he think that, why doesn't he know this about me yet.  All those little trivial bits that just blows out of proportion.  Messy, messy, messy.  Not that I was completely stable before... whole different story.

Having this too much free time in my hand is bad for me.  I better start getting busy soon.

I first found out about paintball, not in paintball forums, but in the movie 10 Things I Hate About You.  You know the farm-like scene where Julia Stiles and Heath Ledger played peek-a-boo behind some hay, while throwing paint balloons on each.  That did it for me.  I wanted to try paintball.  Unfortunately, that's not how it was back where I was.  A few years ago, my friend told me all about his paintball game experience.  Long story short: the game was short but extremely fun.  He ended up with aching legs, and couldn't really go up the stairs for the next 2 days or so.  Apparently, they had all this gear strapped on them, not just the labsuit-look-alike I saw in the movie, and they shoot the paintball through guns.  I found some of these things too in scenario paintball forums.  I just hope I get to try this thing out in this lifetime.

Last friday was "let's be friends with our neighbors day". 

everybody!

Okay, so neighbor just meant townhouse on the otherside of the drive, but they brought food so we're friends.

sisig, kare kare, and cakes times two

Sisig was yummy!  Funny thing how all the girls all went to the living room for chismis fest, and the guys stayed in the kitchen and talked about marketting over tequilla bottle.

Now, on a different day, I would be where the tequilla bottle is, but I wasn't in the mood for those people.  Yes, I'm evil and anti-scoial, and I was only there for the food.  Also, this was my place too.

Next day was "shop til we're broke day".  Got myself some shirts, a jacket and boots!  Not sure if it's such a good idea now that snow seems to be over, and weather seems to get better, but I'm sure I'll need it.  If weather stays great til next week, i can wear my dress to New York. weee!

My Project 365 is in its first month! 

Drop by the tumblr and give me some love!  Got the comment box up, so there.
