She is she

We've known each other since 1992, wayback in college. At one subject or another, we were seatmates. But we were not that close close. We both are part of this Tropang Tulog and Benigno-Carangan Clan. These are not sorority nor academic org, these are barkadas who have the same wavelength with the same topak.

After college, all of us were so excited to be employed and start our own career. I was hired in Bulacan, and the others in Manila, Laguna, and even in Bicol (!) And SHE then got her first job in a chocolate factory in Cainta. After sometime, she moved to Bataan. I stayed in Bulacan. I don't really know how it started but somehow we kept the addresses of each other and send/receive snail mails! We talked about everything, from our funny-weird-kaasar-serious moments at the office to anything that we find it interesting. Then she was hired in Singapore and I was still in Bulacan. Oh I thought the letter send/receive will be stopped, but to our surprise, it was even intensified. She would send me letters with postcards of countries and places she's assigned to. Until, we found a better and faster means of communication - email! Her boyfriend termed our mails as blog emails because almost everyday we send very long nobelas to each other, as if we never talked the other day. So imagine how long our emails when we have long weekends or holidays. And then there's even more real-time talk, SMS (which we don't usually use, expensive eh!) and YM! Communicating has been part of our system. We miss each other when one of us will not be connected to the net. And after all those years, we now are super close close.

We both love to write (especially long letters), we both love shopping (sale!!!), we both love eating (though not so obvious), we both love to laugh (THE!), we both love to just be with our laptop and chat. Countless emails and letters we have exchanged yet there are still more things to talk about.

And now she's on a business trip. I-net connection in her place is so slow but still she managed to send me one blog email. I do miss her too, since we are so hooked with FashMatch I created an outfit for her. And I named it as "bcoz i miss my bes."

Yes, she is my bestfriend.

Balik ka na Singapore bes, umalis ka na dyan! Hahaha

Bits en Pieces

Is this blog still in existence??? Haha, it's been more than one month now since my latest post. And just like my last entry, so many events and happenings have passed. So many times I attempted to write something, but time and chances will just come and go.

And now, I am wordless. Haha!

My current fascination (or addiction) is FashMatch! My bestfriend "influenced" me on trying it and now I am so hooked. And I always blame her for this new addiction. The funny thing is, she admits. Hahaha. Anyway FM, as me and my bes simply call it, is very relaxing and enjoyable. It's one of those girl thing (but there are also men who are into it). Just recently I realized (through the comment of one of the matchers) that the outfit we make are reflections of who we are. Eventhough I try to create a match for a specific purpose or person, my personality will still be added into it. And that makes me say that in everything we do, we leave a footprint in it. And in this life, what mark are you making? Sounds serious, but it's true.

Last week we had a women's encounter in Tagaytay. The place was so nice and the architecture and theme is Thai inspired. It's actually a combination of Pinoy and Thai. I love their coffee and the fresh salad too. But more than the pleasure of the flesh, the retreat is an eye-opener. The theme is about lies women believe and the Truth that sets them free. I hope my loved ones can attend the repeat of this retreat.

Looking forward for the coming months. Me and my nanay are visiting my sister in Australia. My first time, yey!
