Lucky!

Just got lucky a week ago during our firm wide Christmas Party! I was the 2nd prize winner in the raffle and took home a brand new 21-inch DeVant LCD TV.

My dad was really happy because LCD TV was in his Christmas wish list for this year. Good thing I won since I wasn't able to get my 13th month pay from the previous company I worked with...I don't know how will I be able to buy dad's request. But thank God, it was answered. Whew! :)

a quarter after one

Reachin for the phone cause I can't fight it anymore / And I wonder if I ever cross your mind / For me it happens all the time

Love U Leave U

So I was channeling my emo-ness once again, downloading random songs off of YouTube.  And Taa-daaaaaah! I got my song that will be running on my playlist for days. 


Starting now....

"And it feels so much lighter, now I've met you...
And honey you should know, that I could never go on without you... Green eyes..."

haunting..

Your fingertips across my skin
The palm trees swaying in the wind, images
You sang me Spanish lullabies
The sweetest sadness in your eyes, clever trick

Well, I'd never want to see you unhappy
I thought you'd want the same for me

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?

So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

We walked along a crowded street
You took my hand and danced with me in the shade
And when you left you kissed my lips
You told me you would never ever forget these images, no

Well, I'd never want to see you unhappy
I thought you?d want the same for me

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?

So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

I cannot go to the ocean
I cannot try the streets at night
I cannot wake up in the morning
Without you on my mind

So you're gone and I'm haunted
And I bet you are just fine
Did I make it that easy to walk
Right in and out of my life?

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Why can't you just let me be?

So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

Scarlet Cake

Here we go again...it's weekend! From a spa session then looking for a place to eat somewhere comfy with special ambiance. Ended up in a restaurant where food is just sssooooo tasty and worth trying. Did not regret anything from their entree up to dessert. Cookbook Kitchen! This cozy resto is found in Eastwood, Libis.


And yeah, I'm showing one of the best desserts...Kittin's Scarlet Cake! A reddish velvet-y cake with cocoa powder. Yum! I'm sure I will go back here once my taste buds crave again for a cake that is not-so-sweet. Not too expensive too since the price per slice is less than Php200 and I even shared it with my friend Rhina.
