The Good Things

I'm almost done with the project I'm doing with Mikko and Alessa. It's taking much longer than we planned, but hopefully it'll come out perfect. (: I'm pretty excited to see the finished product! I'll make sure to post something when everything is finally in order.

The Candy Girls are going on a trip this coming week! We'll be missing two and half days of work (which I'm dreading!!! oh wait, only good things pala in this post) and basking in sun and love all the way in Ilocos. (: I love weddings! Can't wait to see everyone dolled up.

A new The Vampire Diaries episode, which I didn't get to watch until this morning. Nothing exciting, but TV makes me happy.

A quiet Saturday at home. I'm still not better, but hopefully an entire day at home will cure me. An unusual working Sunday will happen, but at least it'll be near my house. (Trying my best to not complain about everything!) Hopefully I'll still catch my relatives who are heading over for lunch tomorrow.

On Monday, I'm going to be all about the sunshine again. Promise.

Weekend Report

This week has been pretty toxic. I've been sick all week, but I've been trying to mask it by taking medicine, which I usually don't do. I like to just let the fever, cold, cough, etc run its course rather than take chemicals into my body. BUT getting sick isn't really an option these days. Too many things to do, too little time to do them. So you really have no choice but to suck it up and get things done.

I'm happy to report that I survived the week. Ticking off all but one on my unusually lengthy to-do list. I know it's been done before and I'm pretty sure we'll survive, but it will take some getting used to.

There were a few disappointments this week, but nothing that would send me into depression. I guess it's really just another lesson learned and that sometimes, you just have to let go and move on. Also, we lost quiz night this week! Boo, maybe we shouldn't have worn matching stripes. Haha!

I've been feeling really stuffy and icky all week (right after quiz night!) so I plan to stay in bed all day till I need to head out for Church and for my best friend's birthday dinner tonight. I hope staying up late won't get me sick again. s:

Hope you all have an awesome weekend ahead! I couldn't be happier to say hello to mine.

how to have a fantastic week

1. Begin with a holiday.
   
2. Eat random junk food for merienda with friends. (Read: Cheesecake, Oishi prawn crackers, Salt and Vinegar chips, sugar-free mamon, and flavored polvoron.)
   
3. Bake a Cookie Cake for a friend who's starting her journey in another country.
   
4. Have a heart attack-inducing dinner (sisig, crispy pata, inihaw na pusit, and lots of garlic rice...mmm!) then go dance to (obscure) 80s and 90s songs. Woohoo!
   
5. Look through this fantastic cookbook sent by your relatives while having a breakfast of caramelized Spam, scrambled eggs, and garlic rice.
   
6. Wear a dress and gingham wedges to make up for not getting enough sleep. Haha!
   
7. Celebrate Michael Jackson's 50th birthday!

The week's not even over yet. Despite A Big Move happening in my family's life, I'm still finding ways to cheer myself up. Everything's gonna get lighter, even if it never gets better.
