Bangungot

Ang sama ng panaginip ko. Bumalik daw ako sa highschool days at nasa gitna raw ako ng math exam. Eh bobo ako sa math. Buti na lang pinapasahan ako ng kodiko ng mga classmates ko.

Ang problema eh nahuli ako ng prof, at ang prof eh si...



Hell's Kitchen @ 7.30PM TV2

Sabi ko sa panaginip ko "Gising-gising-gising!!"

Hehehe.

Pixel Me Silly: Mumu...

Wag ka sisigaw....

It's a Julianak...

Inilawan na uli ang Skytower last (last) week kasi tapos na sila magtipid ng kuryente. Buti naman, ang boring kasi ng Auckland Skyline pag absent ito.

The World's Strongest Man: Tamati Paul

It's good to finally meet a real All Black.

Met Gisborne man Tamati Paul during my injury prevention training for SafekidsNZ. Former surf lifesaving and outrigger canoe champion, aspiring international kayaker, soon to be policeman, he's also a hero by putting his baby in a child restraint or car seat in 1998. While driving home they were nearly killed by a repeat drink-driver (drunk driver to Pedro) in 1998.

He literally was put back together during a 16hr operation. Most of the bones in his left side below the hip were broken. His foot was crunched and smashed. He suffered severe haemorrhage, head injuries, and was in a coma for a long time. He now has difficulty speaking and walking, and lost 4 years of his memory. His baby, on the other hand, was saved from grave injuries thanks to the carseat.

Tamati's back on his feet (against the odds), and now a spokesperson against drink driving. Hopefully we can convince him to be a champion in proper chilld restraint use as well.

Sort of felt I shared kinship with him, being another that was given a second chance.

Naalala ko dati, nung grade 1 ako:
Pinsan: Ayan, wag ka maingay, pakinggan mo si Papa (Tito ni Tuny na nasa Saudi)..
Tuny: Tito?
Pinsan: Tanga, cassette tape yan.

First Day High!

Pumapasok na si Julia sa school, St. James sa Grey Lyn (wala sila website). So far success, at nag-eenjoy naman sya.
Julia: Daddy, may mga friend na ako sa school, si Stella at si Spiderman.

Daddy: Spiderma... ?


Si Spiderman asa background, kasi yun ang uniform nya sa school everyday.




Nung isang gabi, natulog sya na yakap-yakap ang bag. Naalala ko tuloy nung grade 1 ako natulog akong suot-suot ang bago kong boots (me pinagmanahan, hehehehe).

Do you really want to hurt me...

.. do you really want to make me cry...



Wala lang, na-alala ko lang si Boy George (born George Alan O'Dowd). Ang ganda ni gaga, pati ako naloko nung grade one ako na babae sya. Remember nung magkaroon ng Boy George contest sa Eat Bulaga?

Balita ko eh Hari Krishna na raw sya ngayon, at nakulong kasi nambugbog ng boypren.

Pixel Me Silly: New Toy, K800i


Helping Aloha and Terry clear out their office.

Julia.

Officemate birth anniversary party.


The Truckie protest on my way to work.

Maxx helping me get to Sylvia Park.


ADHB & ARHB Building 15 Asian connection having yum char (or yum cha) at Grand Park Resto in Alexandra Park.

While running home, I bumped into All Blacks Rodney So'oialo waiting for the bus. Sorta.


The night it rained hale.

The last one is not mine (his) :).

My new K800i.

I had to retire my Siemens M65 as it was faling to pieces (Dear Siemens: we had a great time while it lasted). Got my k800i from Vodafone for just NZ$40 (or $20?) on a two year, $40 bucks a month plan (not bad).

Technically got three cameras now, a D40, Stylus 770sw, and this... I NEED them all to capture my new life in NZ, OKAYYY!!

Fine... I don't... But a boy can never have too many cameras (or sneakers), sigh.

Hell's MaryAnn Salcedo, Pinay?

Is Mary Ann the Sous Chef at Hell's season 1 to 3, Pinay? Hmmm, masarap siguro adobo nito.

I read palaban daw ito:
She is now taking on a new role at NeoMeze in Pasadena, and talking about her time on Hell's Kitchen in a way that doesn't sound promising for her return. She does say that working with Gordon Ramsay was an honor, but that she found attempting to “teach waffle-house cooks” (a reference to third season chef contestant Julia Williams) absurd.-- Source.
