Entourage
Palipas oras sa jollibee while waiting for Shawiwor 's text message, somebody asked me to design a gown for her "entourage".
This is the bridesmaid's gown. We can't think of a nice purse to go with it so I drew all the nice ones I could think of.
At sino naman tong model na to? (Clue: see the wild crazy messy "blue-black" hair?) hehe
what do you think?

typical coffee night
Over Moroccan Mint Tea, shoe designs, and some old Preview magazine copies.
Me *puts pencil down sabay buntong hininga for the nth time*: "Ano kaya mangyayari sa buhay ko, no?"
Ann *not even looking up from her magazine*: "Hay nako Ash, kung ikaw nalang kaya ang magdirect ng buhay mo."
*ponder*

Why We Love Who We Love
from jovanne again
--------------
By Dr. Joyce Brothers
Have you ever known a married couple that just didn't seem as though they should fit together--yet they are both happy in the marriage, and you can't figure out why?
I know of one couple: He is a burly ex-athlete who, in addition to being a successful salesman, coached Little League, was active in his Rotary Club and played golf every Saturday with friends. Meanwhile, his wife is petite, quiet and a complete homebody. She doesn't even like to go out to dinner.
What mysterious force drives us into the arms of one person, while pushing us away from another who might appear equally desirable to any unbiased observer?
Of the many factors influencing our idea of the perfect mate, one of the most telling, according to John Money, professor emeritus of medical psychology and pediatrics at Johns Hopkins University, is what he calls our 'lovemap'--a group of messages encoded in our brains that describes our likes and dislikes. It shows our preferences in hair and eye color, in voice, smell, body build. It also records the kind of personality that appeals to us, whether it's the warm and friendly type or the strong, silent type.
In short, we fall for and pursue those people who most clearly fit our lovemap. And this lovemap is largely determined in childhood. By age eight, the pattern for our ideal mate has already begun to float around in our brains.
When I lecture, I often ask couples in the audience what drew them to their dates or mates. Answers range from 'She's strong and independent' and 'I go for redheads' to 'I love his sense of humor' and 'That crooked smile, that's what did it.'
I believe what they say. But I also know that if I were to ask those same men and women to describe their mothers, there would be many similarities between their ideal mates and their moms. Yes, our mothers--the first real love of our lives--write a significant portion of our lovemap.
When we're little, our mother is the center of our attention, and we are the center of hers. So our mother's characteristics leave an indelible impression, and we are forever after attracted to people with her facial features, body type, personality, even sense of humor. If our mother was warm and giving, as adults we tend to be attracted to people who are warm and giving. If our mother was strong and even-tempered, we are going to be attracted to a fair-minded strength in our mates.
The mother has an additional influence on her sons: she not only gives them clues to what they will find attractive in a mate, but also affects how they feel about women in general. So if she is warm and nice, her sons are going to think that's the way women are. They will likely grow up warm and responsive lovers and also be cooperative around the house.
Conversely, a mother who has a depressive personality, and is sometimes friendly but then suddenly turns cold and rejecting, may raise a man who becomes a 'dance-away lover.' Because he's been so scared about love from his mother, he is afraid of commitment and may pull away from a girlfriend for this reason.
While the mother determines in large part what qualities attract us in a mate, it's the father--the first male in our lives--who influences how we relate to the opposite sex. Fathers have an enormous effect on their children's personalities and chances of marital happiness.
Just as mothers influence their son's general feelings toward women, fathers influence their daughter's general feelings about men. If a father lavishes praise on his daughter and demonstrates that she is a worthwhile person, she'll feel very good about herself in relation to men. But if the father is cold, critical or absent, the daughter will tend to feel she's not very lovable or attractive.
What about opposites? Are they really attracted to each other? Yes and no. In many ways we want a mirror image of ourselves. Physically attractive people, for example, are usually drawn to a partner who's equally attractive.
In addition, most of us grow up with people of similar social circumstances. We hang around with people in the same town; our friends have about the same educational backgrounds and career goals. We tend to be most comfortable with these people, and therefore we tend to link up with others whose families are often much like our own.
Robert Winch, a longtime sociology professor at Northwestern University, stated in his research that our choice of a marriage partner involves a number of social similarities. But he also maintained that we look for someone with complementary needs. A talker is attracted to someone who likes to listen, or an aggressive personality may seek out a more passive partner.
It's rather like the old, but perceptive, saying on the subject of marriage that advises future partners to make sure that the holes in one's head fit the bumps in the other's. Or, as Winch observed, it's the balancing out of sociological likenesses and psychological differences that seems to point the way for the most solid lifelong romance.
However, there are instances where people of different social backgrounds end up getting married and being extremely happy. I know of one man, a factory worker from a traditional Irish family in Chicago, who fell in love with an African-American Baptist. When they got married, their friends and relatives predicted a quick failure. But 25 years later, the marriage is still strong.
It turns out that the woman was like her mother-in-law--a loving and caring person, the type who rolls up her sleeves and volunteers to work at church or help out people in need. This is the quality that her husband fell for, and it made color and religion and any other social factors irrelevant to him.
Or as George Burns, who was Jewish and married the Irish Catholic Gracie Allen, used to say: his marriage was his favorite gig, even though it was Gracie who got all the laughs. The two of them did share certain social similarities--both grew up in the city, in large but poor families. Yet what really drew them together was evident from the first time they went on stage together. They complemented each other perfectly: he was the straight man, and she delivered the punch lines.
There are certainly such 'odd couples' who could scarcely be happier. We all know some drop-dead beautiful person married to an unusually plain wallflower. This is a trade-off some call the equity theory.
When men and women possess a particular asset, such as high intelligence, unusual beauty, a personality that makes others swoon, or a hefty bankroll that has the same effect, some decide to trade their assets for someone else's strong points. The raging beauty may trade her luster for the power and security that come with big bucks. The not-so-talented fellow from a good family may swap his pedigree for a poor but brilliantly talented mate.
Indeed, almost any combination can survive and thrive. Once, some neighbors of mine stopped by for a friendly social engagement. During the evening Robert, a man in his 50s, suddenly blurted out, 'What would you say if your daughter planned to marry someone who has a ponytail and insisted on doing the cooking?'
'Unless your daughter loves cooking,' I responded, 'I'd say she was darn lucky.'
'Exactly,' his wife agreed. 'It's really your problem, Robert--that old macho thing rearing its head again. The point is, they're in love.'
I tried to reassure Robert, pointing out that the young man their daughter had picked out seemed to be a relaxed, nonjudgmental sort of person--a trait he shared with her own mother.
Is there such a thing as love at first sight? Why not? When people become love-struck, what happens in that instant is the couple probably discovers a unique something they have in common. It could be something as mundane as they both were reading the same book or were born in the same town. At the same time they recognize some trait in the other that complements their own personality.
I happen to be one of those who was struck by the magic wand. On that fateful weekend, while I was a sophomore at Cornell University, I had a terrible cold and hesitated to join my family on vacation in the Catskill Mountains. Finally I decided anything would be better than sitting alone in my dormitory room.
That night as I was preparing to go to dinner, my sister rushed up the stairs and said, 'When you walk into that dining room, you're going to meet the man you'll marry.'
I think I said something like 'Buzz off!' But my sister couldn't have been more right. I knew it from the moment I saw him, and the memory still gives me goose flesh. He was a premed student, also at Cornell, who incidentally also had a bad cold. I fell in love with Milton the instant I met him.
Milt and I were married for 39 years, until his death in 1989. And all that time we experienced a love that Erich Fromm called a 'feeling of fusion, of oneness,' even while we both continued to change, grow and fulfill our lives.

17. Don’t fall for the “I’m confused role”. Remove yourself from the situation to let him figure things out (but don’t wait for him, move on).

19. Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man, nothing more nothing less.
20. ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS.
21. Never let a man define who you are.
22. If he cheated with you, he’ll cheat on you.
23. Just because he says he loves you, doesn’t mean that he won’t hurt you and it doesn’t mean that you are meant to be with him.
24. Know that you deserve to be the number one person in the life of the #1 person in your life.
25. Love is a verb.
26. Learn to give up your lifelong task of trying to make someone unavailable-available,

28. If you don’t love yourself…you can’t love anyone else.

32. NEVER give more in a relationship than you are getting out of it.
33. When actions and words conflict, believe the actions. Respond to the actions.
34. Don’t fall for the “I’m not the loving type”…when a man loves you there is nothing in this world (within reason) that he wouldn’t do for you.
35. Make him miss you sometimes…when a man always know where you are, and you’re always readily available to him he takes it for granted..
36. When it’s time to let go; let go.
37. Don’t fully commit to a man who doesn’t give you everything that you need. Keep him in your radar but get to know others.
38. Never believe a man that tells you he want to be with you, while he’s with someone else, if he wanted to be with you, he would make it happen sooner than later.
39. Don’t be a man’s doormat , make him open the door for you, because a real man would do this on his own.
40. There is someone out there worthy to be in your life, let out the trash so he can come in.

Indoor Plants

Plants are nature's most efficient environmental air cleaner

Plants are nature's most efficient environmental air cleaner
Living indoor plants not only have a well-established beneficial psychological effect on humans, they also clean chemicals and other harmful pollutants from the air.
Studies by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) (Dr. William Wolverton at wolvertonenvironmental.com) prove that tropical plants not only beautify indoor environments, they make them healthier to live in. NASA studied the benefits of plants for use in future space stations and closed environments. Properly designed indoor planting can provide an inexpensive, refreshingly low-tech means of removing pollutants from the air in offices and homes.
Indoor air is polluted from the various fibers (carpet, fabrics, wall coverings) and solvents (wallboard, paints, varnishes, furniture) we use to build and decorate our homes and offices. Two potted plants per 100 square feet of floor space will help to clean and refresh the air in the average home or office.
Virtually every tropical indoor plant and many flowering plants are powerful removers of indoor air pollutants. Below is a chart of the plants in the NASA study that most effectively removed pollutants from the air.
| Pollutant | Source | Solutions |
| Formaldehyde | foam insulation | Azalea |
| Benzene | tobacco smoke | English ivy |
| Trichloroethylene | dry cleaning | Gerbera daisy |
Ashnur's Lucky Bamboo takes the brunt of last night's aftermath :P
------------------this one from: http://www.houseofplants.co.uk/healthbenefits.html#list
Interior plants apart from looking good have been proven to have significant health and wellbeing benefits. This is because of two major effects:
Physical - the cleaning, purification and conditioning of the air we breathe;
Psychological - the very presence of plants has been shown to increase positive feelings and reduce feelings of anxiety, anger and sadness.
There is a wealth of scientific study into the beneficial effects of plants in the interior environment including a large NASA programme. If you are interested in more detail refer to www.healthygreenatwork.org (run by NIGZ, the Netherlands Institute for Health Promotion and Disease Prevention) for a comprehensive bibliography and further links.
The major health and wellbeing benefits of interior plants include:
- · Absorption of harmful substances
- · Filtration of dust and dirt from the environment
- · Dampening of sound levels
- · Reduction of stress levels
- · Increased humidity levels
- · Cooling effect
- · Lifting of the general mood
- · Emission of oxygen refreshing the air

I AM SO CRAVING THIS CHOCOLATE!!!
LION BAR!!!
First time na-addik: Nung Prep ako at nagbebenta si mom ng mga chocolate sa office (sideline). Ayaw kami bigyan sa bahay. Tinatakpan pa para di namin makita.
Note: first time den mangupit hehe
Wala nang Lion Bar dito sa Pilipinas!!! Matagal na!!!
Last time makatikim ng Lion Bar: Around September 2000, pasalubong ng isang officemate sa OJT na galing U.S. binili lang niya sa Duty Free (wala nang ganito sa Duty Free alam ko)
*drool na nangingiyak ngiyak*
This is the closest thing Pilipinas has to a Lion Bar (but it's still a far cry...)
Although addik den ako dito, it still can't do any justice. And it's been a long while since I've seen Big Bang (usually kasi Cloud 9). Last time was at this small carinderia sa Joline's, Marikina.
So ibig sabihin magiging extinct na ren to?!
NOooooooOOOoooooOOooo!!!!
Note: Wala ren daw sa US sabi ni stell 062608
skirts!
Saw these lovely skirts over at skirtspot.com:
Calling Avigail Balaag! Pwede natin pagkakitaan to, magiging fashionista na ang mga sumasamba sa tapat ng Jasiphate mwehehehhe...

(UPDATE 2) 3 killed in strong Japan earthquake -- official
Agence France-Presse
First Posted 08:21am (Mla time) 06/14/2008
TOKYO, Japan -- Three people were killed in Saturday's powerful earthquake in northern Japan, an official said.
65 people were injured across Japan, according to the disaster management authority, while media reports put the figure above 100.
A hospital official said a 48-year-old construction worker on a dam project died after being hit by falling rocks in the city of Oshu.
The government earlier said a 55-year-old man died when he was hit by a landslide while fishing and that a 60-year-old man died after running out of his home in fright and getting hit by a truck.
At least 12 people are also missing after the earthquake, which registered 7.2 on the Richter scale and was followed by nearly 100 aftershocks.

A hospital official said a 48-year-old construction worker on a dam project died after being hit by falling rocks in the city of Oshu.
The government earlier said a 55-year-old man died when he was hit by a landslide while fishing and that a 60-year-old man died after running out of his home in fright and getting hit by a truck.
At least 12 people are also missing after the earthquake, which registered 7.2 on the Richter scale and was followed by nearly 100 aftershocks.

The Great Credit Card Race
How fast Philippine Credit Card Companies respond to card replacements (lost card)
By: Chenever Forte Moon
Lost cards reported on: May 28, 2008 (Wednesday) at around 6:30 to 7pm.
Credit cards called (di ko na maalala ang pagkakasunod sunod kasi lutang at lost nako but i definitely remember BDO being the first)
1. BDO
2. HSBC
3. BPI
4. Citibank
A. Comments regarding the phone calls:
1. BDO - akala ata nila sila lang ang credit card ko. dikolam kung yung nakausap kong CSR eh walang nakausap buong araw, kasi parang ayaw ibaba ang phone:
*after maireport ang lost credit card at sm advantage*
CSR: is there anything else i can help you with?
AKO: oks na thanks thanks thanks (scanning text message ni ann re: hotline ng HSBC, which is next credit card company to call)
CSR: we will deliver nalang the credit card, hintayin niyo nalang po confirm ko lang dito po siya ideliver sa address na to *dictates my address for confirmation*
AKO: yes yes yes
CSR: and your contact number is *dictates*
AKO: yes yes yes
CSR: ok mam, is there anything else i can help you with?
AKO: ok na that's it, thanks thanks thanks
CSR: ok po if you have any question, just call 631-8000
AKO: yes yes yes i have to hang up na, i have 3 more card companies to call!!!!
2. HSBC - mabilis! kasi kasama sa main menu ang "To report a lost card..." hindi yung magpress ka pa ng napakaraming number to get to the lost card menu.
3. BPI - matagal! and you have to wait sa "to report a lost card..." which is number 5 pa ata or sumthing. eh pano kung nagpapanic ka na at di ka na makapagisip kung ano ano nalang mapindot mo? and i was put on hold for a loooong time (kasi hindi ata "to report a lost card ang napindot ko, kasi nga anlayo sa main menu. ang pinili kong option ay "for BPI Credit Cards"). pero ok naman yung nagaccomodate sakin.
4. Citibank - hindi ko na maalala what happened. napakabilis ng pangyayari. parang nagulat nalang ako: BOOM! My card is blocked. Parang:
AKO: My wallet was lost, along with my credit card.
*dazed, CSR asked for my name, birth date, mother's maiden name, billing address, etc.*
CSR: Ok your card is blocked.
AKO (stunned): That's it?
*ang galing ano! choss.
B. The Delivery
Take note: Report was made on May 28, Wednesday
First:
Citibank (Arrived May 30, before lunch)
*I was due for the PremiereMiles kasi I was formerly Cathay Pacific Visa. They sent me a REPLACEMENT CARD. Meaning, nauna pa dumating ang replacement card kesa sa Renewal.* . As I have no money, I used the card agad that afternoon to pay for my merienda at Cafe Breton MOA.
*packaging: wala yung sobre sa loob ng welcome pack. therefore... hindi nakaplastic ang envelope ng citibank credit card ko.
Second:
Petron - BPI (Arrived May 31, Saturday, mga lunchtime.) delivered by Intervolved.
*packaging: sturdy, tamperproof plastic provided by Intervolved.
Third:
Citibank ulit (Arrived June 3, Tuesday)
(delivered my renewal card na PremiereMiles). Asa pa ako na I received two Credit Cards from Citibank (paconvert ko pa naman sana yung isa to Shell Citibank 5% fuel rebate!) kaso as the new card was linked to my Cathay Pacific Visa, this too, was blocked. *in short they delivered a card that was already blocked, and is therefore, useless*
*packaging: ang ganda ng welcome pack nila, bakla, kala mo Platinum ang natanggap mong card eh regular card lang naman yun.
Note: On Wednesday, I had to get my car sa Mitsubishi. I used my BPI to pay for some parts and labor (S.I.P.) and used my Citibank for the accessories (Paylite, 0% interest for 6 months!)
Fourth:
HSBC: (Arrived June 5, Thursday, morning)
Ang tagal!!! di ako makalog-in sa HSBC online dahil dito. eh na-o-OC na ako sa magkano ba ang kelangan kong bayaran... Hindi ko alam kung sino Courier nila...saglit... Fastrak ata!!!
*packaging: no plastic pero super sturdy ng envelope, super tamperproof di mo mabubuksan unless wasakin mo talaga yung envelope plus the credit card is NOT LIVE. Meaning, you have to activate it pa para magamit mo. Miski magkasalisihan, di nila secretly mabubuksan ang envelope (kasi nga tamperproof) and di nila magagamit ang card (kasi hindi activated).
Fifth:
BDO: (Arrived June 5, Thursday, afternoon)
Nahuli lang ng ilang oras sa HSBC, delivered by Pelican Express. Tapos pagbukas ko ng sobre.... wala yung SM Advantage ko! Grr. Eh andami ko nang pinamili sa Watsons (i have to replenish my Kikay Kit kasi nga daver nawala ang baggelya kezz). *sigh*
*packaging: sturdy, tamperproof plastic provided by Pelican Express. You also need to activate the card tulad ng HSBC.
----------------
P.S.
I used to have an EastWest Bank Credit Card kaso pinaputol ko na kasi:
1. Nagkaron ako ng Finance Charge at Late Charge dahil hindi daw ako nagbayad. Eh hindi naman nila ako pinadalhan ng statement! Tignan mo naman ang konti ng cards ko (oo palaaaaa.) Mamo-monitor ko pa ba lahat yun?!
2. Sobrang impolite ng mga taga Collections. Kaya ko pala hindi natanggap ang statements ay dahil sa office pa nila pinapadala eh I updated them MONTHS before na di na ako dun nagwowork at sa bahay nalang nila ipadala ang statements. Wag daw ako sa kanila magreklamo kasi taga collections sila. sa ibang department daw ako magreklamo.
3. Patience. So dial uli ako sa hotline, nagreklamo na ako sa kinauukulan. I update daw nila at ireport at reversal ng fees.
4. natanggap ang statement sa wakas. pero walang reversal ng fees.
5. tawag uli sa customer service. wala daw nagreport ng reversal of fees (what the hell?!) irereport nalang daw ulit.
6. At this point, im not using my card anymore. I received my last statement amounting to P0.00. KEBS!!! Pinaputol ko na!
Tsugi!
Teggybirds!
--------------------------
P.S. Wag niyo na ako alukan ng credit cards ayoko nah! Pagnatapos ko na bayaran to, paputol ko na to lahat, ang iretain konalng ay yung may pinakamataas na limit and/or may pinaka ok na fuel rebate =/

so true!
Was browsing through this book at FullyBooked. Wasn't able to purchase it, but later on, I found out na meron palang softcopy available online!
It's so true, grabe. was never really a hard core believer before. Kakaiba talaga si Linda Goodman.
---------------------
Some stuff she said about Cancer na sobrang swak sakin:
Truelalu:
"She's just a little mad, slightly sad and superbly imaginative. She also knows how to save the shekels."
"A Cancer female can go on a sudden spending spree when she's been hurt and needs balm for her injured ego, but most of the time her outgo will lag considerably behind her income. Your savings account may be of unusual interest to her, and money may be one of her favorite topics of conversation. She won't look down on you if you don't have it, so long as you're the kind of man who tries to get it. She'll help you make it and save it, but you're on your own when it comes to wasting it."
"You'll have to make the first move. If she moves anywhere at all, it will be backwards or sideways. With her basically shy nature and fear that she won't be accepted, she echoes .the male of the Sun sign. I know of a Cancer woman and a Cancer man who, for seven hours, sat close to each other one night in her apartment, under the pretense of looking at magazines. While their pulses pounded silently, they went through a stack of back issues, the morning and evening papers, and worked a few crossword puzzles. Neither crab, you see, wanted to make the first move."
" Be kind to her mother, or she'll never forgive you. Mother is a lady she won't like to see abused. The Cancer girl's sense of humor doesn't react favorably to mother-in-law jokes. And never read her five-year-diary. It probably has a lock and key, anyway. Cancerians like to keep secrets. They're not much for true confessions, unless you're the one doing the confessing."
"She's afraid she isn't pretty enough, she isn't smart enough, she isn't young enough or she isn't old enough. It makes no difference if she has a figure like Venus de Milo, a face like Helen of Troy and a mind like Aristotle: she'll still feel inadequate."
"But don't be fooled by her weakness during these episodes. That helpless little baby who seeks your big, strong arms to keep out the cold, cruel world is perfectly able to manage by herself, if she must. In the middle of a quarrel, when your lunar girl looks up at you with her eyes all wet and dewy and frightened, remember that after you leave and are safely around the corner, she's likely to dry her eyes, put a stack of records on the player, and calmly clean out her closets."
Some stuff she said about Cancer na mejo sablay ata...
Eklavu:
"the typical Cancerian woman can make a French chef look like the mess sergeant you had at boot camp. This woman isn't an automatic can opener or a frozen food fan. She would rather shell her own peas and bake her own biscuits. Her casseroles are sensational, her potatoes are fluffy, her vegetables are crisp and crunchy, and she tops it all off with heavenly strawberry jam. Cancer women are very friendly with their ovens. The kitchen will be her favorite room by far (next to the nursery)"

It's so true, grabe. was never really a hard core believer before. Kakaiba talaga si Linda Goodman.

Some stuff she said about Cancer na sobrang swak sakin:
Truelalu:
"She's just a little mad, slightly sad and superbly imaginative. She also knows how to save the shekels."
"A Cancer female can go on a sudden spending spree when she's been hurt and needs balm for her injured ego, but most of the time her outgo will lag considerably behind her income. Your savings account may be of unusual interest to her, and money may be one of her favorite topics of conversation. She won't look down on you if you don't have it, so long as you're the kind of man who tries to get it. She'll help you make it and save it, but you're on your own when it comes to wasting it."
"You'll have to make the first move. If she moves anywhere at all, it will be backwards or sideways. With her basically shy nature and fear that she won't be accepted, she echoes .the male of the Sun sign. I know of a Cancer woman and a Cancer man who, for seven hours, sat close to each other one night in her apartment, under the pretense of looking at magazines. While their pulses pounded silently, they went through a stack of back issues, the morning and evening papers, and worked a few crossword puzzles. Neither crab, you see, wanted to make the first move."
" Be kind to her mother, or she'll never forgive you. Mother is a lady she won't like to see abused. The Cancer girl's sense of humor doesn't react favorably to mother-in-law jokes. And never read her five-year-diary. It probably has a lock and key, anyway. Cancerians like to keep secrets. They're not much for true confessions, unless you're the one doing the confessing."
"She's afraid she isn't pretty enough, she isn't smart enough, she isn't young enough or she isn't old enough. It makes no difference if she has a figure like Venus de Milo, a face like Helen of Troy and a mind like Aristotle: she'll still feel inadequate."
"But don't be fooled by her weakness during these episodes. That helpless little baby who seeks your big, strong arms to keep out the cold, cruel world is perfectly able to manage by herself, if she must. In the middle of a quarrel, when your lunar girl looks up at you with her eyes all wet and dewy and frightened, remember that after you leave and are safely around the corner, she's likely to dry her eyes, put a stack of records on the player, and calmly clean out her closets."

Eklavu:
"the typical Cancerian woman can make a French chef look like the mess sergeant you had at boot camp. This woman isn't an automatic can opener or a frozen food fan. She would rather shell her own peas and bake her own biscuits. Her casseroles are sensational, her potatoes are fluffy, her vegetables are crisp and crunchy, and she tops it all off with heavenly strawberry jam. Cancer women are very friendly with their ovens. The kitchen will be her favorite room by far (next to the nursery)"
