Ooops. Sorry. Night stand! Or a bed side table.
For several months now, my computer table served as my night stand as well. But I got bored one Sunday and decided to re-arrange my room again. The computer table is now opposite my bed so I'm missing a night stand.
To make up for the loss, I grabbed a stool from our Ku-Bo and used it as a temporary night stand. Cute but not much space to put stuff in/on.
Cheap flowers but they wilt so easily. Peach scent, I learned, kills cockroaches! |
The dad's on a 'winning streak' with the mom so he's in no position to say no to the children (that's us). Caught up on him this morning on my way to work and asked him to make me a really nice night stand! Of course he wouldn't say no. Or else.
Now I'm up to my elbows looking for the perfect night stand design. HELP!
Too many to choose from! |
- Top drawer, open bottom shelf
- Top open shelf, two drawers
- Top drawer, one-door cabinet
- Two layer open shelf
- Top drawer, open shelf (princess type)
- Two drawers
- Top drawer, open bottom shelf (concave)
- Three drawers
- Top drawer, open shelf (box type)
Of course I'd get the one with the drawers but there are too many to choose from. Any tips in choosing a design?
The first thing that popped into my head when I saw Ms. Iris in person was the movie "The Doll Master". Ms. Iris is a really nice person though, nothing like the girl in this movie. She greeted and hugged everyone but I couldn't stop thinking of the movie so it felt a bit awkward to return her warmness.
Have a safe trip back to China Ms. Iris!

Is it possible to become a complete loser online where lying or pretending to be someone else is easy as pie?
Absolutely! Here's how (in no particular order):
Start off by saying something really unique like "Hi" or "Hello" when sending messages so that you'll catch their attention right away. Better if you spell it like this "ElOw" or "mUztah?".
Mention in your profile and everywhere you can write on that you're a simple guy, living a simple life, who's interested in simple things, looking for a simple girl. That your role in this world is to make others happy.
Jazz up your profile picture. Do a duck face or a vain shot. Add frames, glitters, clip arts, whatever.
Make sure the captions for said photos are clear and they are not just fishing for compliments: "No make-up here", "Gosh, I'm so fat na", "Wazzzup bitchez?!"
Fill your profile with grammar errors, typos, unnecessary punctuation marks, etc.
After exchanging several messages with her, go for the kill. Describe your horniness, that it's beyond reproach and you badly want to fuck her.
If that doesn't work, try again! Never say die!
Be honest about how much of a jerk you are. She'll completely understand.
Say 'stuffs' or 'informations'.
Post photos of yourself half naked for all the world to see those flabs and hairy armpits cause they scream sexy and appropriate.
Use Photoshop as much as possible on all of your posted photos and make sure you're not recognizable from your real self.
Maybe I'm guilty of a few of these things but I'm really trying hard not to. Or I'm being self-righteous. Well, I guess I am. Your profile represents more than half of who you really are so prove me wrong.
There's this saying that you should be yourself all the time and let people accept you for who you are and what you're not. Well, this is true. But that doesn't give you any right to be reckless and flaunt your lack of taste or stupidity to annoy people like me.
Please don't label me as a total snob when I don't respond to your attention grabbing one liner "Hello" or "Hi". It's possible that you're just too shy to say more and that's okay but don't send five more messages with the same shit. If you're interested enough, a question or two would be great. Tells me that I'm more than just a random citizen in the online community.
Don't ruin online friendship for me. A little common sense goes a long way.
Now that's out of the way, let me just clean up my accounts!:)
Friday night out with the girls (and Nadzter).
We're right in the middle of everything and we're still too lazy to take a 10-minute (at most) tricycle ride to numerous bars and restos at BF or take the Jeep and head to Southmall or ATC. There had to be a resto-slash-bar right outside our gate.
And voila! We must thank whoever wished so hard for a place like this to exist right outside our compound's gate.

'Crispy' Pork Sisig Tough instead of crispy. Not hot and spicy enough. T'was okay. |
Chicken Sisig Lots of white onions. Okay but lacks something, love. |
Place is great. Nice and comfy tables and chairs (we're thinking how we can snatch a whole set and take it home). View isn't awesome but the veranda's very airy and the comfort rooms are very neat and clean. Beer is cheap (200 a bucket), not chilled but ice keeps coming. Food, well, is another story. We tried their Dynamite during our first visit and I could do better (LBM for me and Jamie). We ordered sisig (pork and chicken) and they cost as much as the ones at popular joints but not as delish (too many onions, not hot enough, pork was tough). Bey and Nad ordered spaghetti and calamares. They weren't so thrilled with them either. We also tried their french fries, not great but good enough to have everyone dig in.
It was a fun night. Learned about Shaina, Kim, and Maja's dance moves from Yuann. We sang! Good heavens. Video to be posted next. Let's do this again next week! :D
