New Addictive Game at Facebook! Guess the Sketch Challenge

Our neighbor, Apple introduced me this game: "Guess the Sketch Challenge", a game application in Facebook. I have to try something new because sometimes I got bored in Poker and Farmville..

The rule of the game is to guess the item that the other player will sketch. Sometimes it may be in one word or two.. I admit, I am not good in drawing.. and that's the challenge for me. I was so nervous, the first time I draw along other 9 players (all were strangers!)..I know some of them were Filipinos because of their reactions in the sketches.. I remember, the first thing I sketched is Violin..Some commented, "nice".. while someone said, "Ang laki naman na violin nun!"..It made me laugh because, my drawing looks like a very big violin.. "Banduria ba yun?" hahaha...

Next item was a "Bee"...I like to put Jolly... then I would draw a Bee.. but in my nervousness because of the timer sound, my bee looked like a monster!! hahaha..someone commented: "Bee, na yun sa yo?" hahaha.. I looked at my drawing and I forgot to put wings!..Anyway, those comments did not made me down, instead it made me challenged to the next rounds.

At night, I invited Malen and Beth to this new game.. Then we searched for the other online friends and Beth invited Nanay Maan and Ate Menchie..And Jayjay also joined in the later part of the game... And these pictures were captured during our game last night.. :P

My Top 10 Movie Soundtracks

Finally, my first Note in our lyrics website,www.lyrics-buddy.com was finished!
See full lyrics and video thru clicking at the song title :)

Whenever I hear these songs, I always remember my favorite movies. These are my top ten Movie Soundtracks. Video clips were actually came from some movie scenes and I also included some lines of the song that touched my heart :)

1) Way Back Into love by Hugh Grant and Haley Bennett (Music and Lyrics Soundtrack)

I just love this song’s melody from start to finish.
This song has also a remake from Sam Milby that used to be the TV theme song of “Your song”. That’s why it’s hitting the airwaves until today.

Music and Lyrics is a 2007 romantic-comedy film, story of pop music idol (of the fictional band PoP!) played by Hugh grant and an aspiring writer (Drew Barrymore) as they were challenged to compose a song for the reigning pop diva.

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can’t make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart again
I guess I’m hoping you’ll be there for me in the end

2) On the Side of me by Corrine May (Narnia Soundtrack)

The Chronicles of Narnia present the adventures of children who play central roles in the unfolding history of the fictional realm of Narnia. “On the side of Me” was the OST for Narnia’s Prince Caspian: The Return to Narnia.

I’m not the easiest person to love
But you, you’ve opened your heart to show me what I’m worth
‘Cause you choose to be
On the side of me

3) Pocket Full of Sunshine by Natasha Bedingfield (The Ugly Truth Soundtrack)

Another romantic comedy movie.. :)
Casts: Katherine Heighl (Abby Ritcher) and Gerard Butler (Mike Chadway)

The sun is on my side.
Take me for a ride.
I smile up to the sky.
I know I’ll be all right.

4) Dream of Me by Kirsten Dunst (Get it over Soundtrack)

This music video was actually the part of the scene when Kelly(Kirsten Dunst) sings this song, Berke(Ben Foster) remembers of all their moments together and realizes that he is falling for her.

I’ll hide beneath the clouds
And whisper to the evening stars
They tell me love is just a dream away

5) I Hope That I dont fall In Love With You by Marc con (The Prince and Me Soundtrack)

The story of The Prince and Me goes like this: A Wisconsin student, Paige Morgan (Julia Stiles) meets a Danish prince, Edvard (Luke Mably), who persuades his Royal family to accept a commoner bride.

Well, I hope that I don’t fall in love with you.
‘Cause falling in love just makes me blue.
When the music plays and you display your heart for me to see.

6) Hot and Cold by Katie Perry (The Ugly Truth and The Proposal Soundtrack)

I watched these two movies (The Proposal and The Ugly Truth) consecutively that’s why I noticed that they had the same soundtrack Hot and Cold. Both movies were very funny and hilarious! :)

Cause you’re hot then you’re cold
You’re yes then you’re no
You’re in then you’re out
You’re up then you’re down
You’re wrong when it’s right

7) I Believe by Shin Seung Hoon (My Sassy Girl – Korean)

My Sassy Girl (Korean) is one of my favorite Korean films. It came to the point wherein I could memorize all the love commandments listed down by the main guy character just to please the Sassy Girl..

Kudaeran iyu-manuro naege-karun
kidarimjocha chungbunhi haengbokha-getjyo
Saranghan iyumanuro / tto haruga chinagago
onun gil ichodo / kidarilkeyo
Nan kudaeyoyaman hajyo

In English Translation:
You are the only reason…
To me the wait gives me enough happiness.
Love is the only reason…
As days pass by,
If you forget the way, I’ll be waiting
I do it for you.

8.) I Love You Goodbye by Juris (I Love You Goodbye Soundtrack)

I LOVE YOU GOODBYE is a MMFF film entry of 2009 by Laurice Guillen. Starring Gabby Concepcion, Angelica Panganiban, Derek Ramsay & Kim Chiu..

I hope someday you can
Find some way to understand I’m only doing this for you
I don’t really wanna go
But deep in my heart I know this is the kindest thing to do

9) Tanging Mahal by Regine Velasquez (Pangako Ikaw Lamang Soundtrack)

Tanging mahal sa puso ko’y ikaw lamang
Sabihin mong pag-ibig kong minimithi
o inaasam
Kaylan pa ba maririnig ito sinta
Kung sana’y makapiling ka
Habang buhay aking sinta

10) Got To Believe in Magic – David Pomeranz (Zapped Soundtrack, Got2Belive in Magic Soundtrack)

Got to Believe in Magic was my all-time favorite song. Not to mention how I adore David Pomeranz, I also love Got2Believe local movie of Claudine Barretto and Rico Yan.
But before that, this song also used to be the official soundtrack of Zapped, an old movie back way 1982.

Got to believe in magic
Tell me how two people find each other
In a world that’s full of strangers

Tried something new!

Yesterday, my sister and I went to the parlor. We both have super black hair and we want to try something new.  My sister had her hair straightening with cellophane and I had my hair highlights... My first option was color red,  but the staff suggested copper since my hair was too black.  And I said okay.

And the color of my hair turned into somewhat similar with 1:43 of this video:



I just hope this hair color is not prohibited in our office :P

Today: Short Encounter with Jollibee :)


Who doesn't love Jollibee?


Today is the 7th Birthday celebration of my niece and "inaanak" Florence. I almost forgot that today is her celebration because I wasn't able to input in my reminders...I slept at dorm super late at night because last night was our Department's Christmas Party and I woke up 11:30! A single text from Florence' mom reminded me that today I should be at the venue at 3PM cause I volunteered to be the photographer...Of course, I used again my "buzzer beater" ability.

Held in Jollibee, kids and moms enjoyed the event with some parlor games and with the presence of Jollibee mascot.. :)


Jollibee and Florence doing the Dance Craze: "Nobody"


The buzzer beater Ninang and the bday celebrant




Even Jollibee mascot cannot escape to my shot!



Kyla RNB and Jay-R

I like Kyla and Jay-R as love team, even though Kyla has already a long time boyfriend Rich Alvarez, I just can't help myself to feel "kilig" every time I see Kyla and Jay-R....

Good thing, their episodes in Dear Friend has been uploaded already in Youtube...Last week, I finished the Part 1-8...so now I'm at Ep. 9.... :)

Timely Text Message Quotation

This afternoon, I received a very timely text message from Beth, my super buddy..

Here it goes...

Time will come that you'll give up something you were too afraid to lose, 
Because you're not happy anymore...
It is when a fantasy turned to be a nightmare..
It is when the thing you once thought to be precious starts to hurt you...
It is when you ran out of reasons to stay...
It is when the need to hold on ceased...
It is when you had the courage to let go of something you've ever dreamt of...
It is when you realized it's time to MOVE ON...
And it's when you finally learned to be fair to yourself...

Very well said.. :)

Sunday Aquarian Horoscope

Keep your goals realistic; don't promise what you can't deliver. Stay sane.

You get a welcome breather from the nonstop action today. You don't know whether you're coming or going, but that's not the least of it. You see the best and worst sides of the people in your life, adding to your confusion about what to do. Following an impulse saves the day, although a more confusing issue remains obscured. It might be best to avoid making any major decision until this fog lifts.

Aquarius Horoscope and my "Eksena" for today 12/05/2009

Yes, I'm an addict horoscope reader!

This is my horoscope for today.. :)

It's sure that there are times you would really enjoy living the simple life, Aquarius. Wouldn't it be nice to settle into a happy rural lifestyle? But no: that's not what's happening today. You may have to make some adjustments to get in the mood, because something big is up in the relationship department sometime later today. The atmosphere around you may not be filled with the kind of hustle and bustle you've come to expect, and maybe outside circumstances will slow things down, but your thoughts are on love, and thoughts are things that won't be easily stopped.

I attended a baptismal party and I'm the official "ninang", and yet I'm late at the church, but had the chance to took the very last picture taking..Not to mention the super traffic, the taxi driver who committed to bring us to the church but ended up to took us to different "Marcelo church", my mother who fixed herself slower than me....So many reasons why I'm late!

"Pati ba naman sa church, buzzer beater pa rin?".... hahaha

My Yesterday's Horoscope! and Paranormal Activity Movie

Aquarius
Everyone is starting to see the logic; your arguments are winning converts.

In Detail

Work may not be as satisfying these days as it once was. Maybe you've grown so used to your job that it no longer stimulates your creativity, or perhaps your principal interests have simply moved in another direction. Reconciling this situation could be as simple as adding some extracurricular activities to your after-work existence or as complicated as changing careers. Only you can decide which course is right.

==> How true!!  :( 

On the other happier side....

 My office friends and I decided to see a movie...
Our options are:  Ninja Assassin, Christmas Carol and Paranormal Activity.


After finding out that the latter was not available at Shangri-la, we moved in at SM Megamall... (which turned out as not a good idea hahahaha) because we did not find this movie a good one. In fact, there are some part of the movie which we can fall asleep... hahaha...






Paranormal Activity

Aquarian Horoscope for Today and Tomorrow (Dec 2 and 3, 2009)

December 2

Make sure you've considered all angles. A decision may have surprising results.

 ==> Today, I bravely submitted a resignation letter. As far I as I know, this decision I made was final...as long as my previous contract with the training I attended permits me.. Still waiting for the feedback...


I'm so curious what's in store tomorrow:

December 3 

When you come to a wall, don't give up and turn around. Climb over it.

Half of life is just showing up, so don't sit this one out. The events that are about to take place are too important miss. Find a way to deal with whatever is bothering you and move on. Try not to let your emotions rule the rest of your body. You have enough inner strength to get through these circumstances, but you may not know it yet. Do whatever it takes to summon the courage you need to get past this so you can claim your next victory.
