Pepper Lunch

Went to Pepper Lunch last May 15, they were having a 3-day test run for Family, Friends & Press people before they officially went open to public on May 16. I was plesantly surprised & excited when Cecile aka Chuvaness personally invited me to visit her new Baby.

The food was superb, service was A+ the people behind the counter even told us their highly recommended dish but i was eyeing the Beef pepper rice before hand... too bad i forgot to take a pic & finish the whole thing in 1 big gulp nyahaha. & as for dessert i had Vanilla Crepe cake & Kuromitsu Soft Ice Cream (ofcourse i shared this with 2 other people because it would be too much if i ate everything hehehe), can't wait to go back again & try the highly sensational Molten Milk Chocolate Cake & the Salmon & Chicken Combo.

check out their menu:

Pepper Lunch is located at the Powerplant mall in front of Rustan's supermarket at the Concourse.

to new beginnings

I've been to hell & hell this past few months, but i am taking one step at a time, hope it would all work out perfectly if not then i really don't know what to do. But then, with all the bad things that has happened i honestly believe that i deserve a F*cking break, nobody should feel like a shit head all over & over again.

So here's to new beginnings & to all the people that would cross me... i intend to buy a Shovel & a plot in the Cemetery... don't say that i didn't warn you.

Current Obsession: a Navy Blue St. Louis Goyard PM with my initials on it.

Current Addiction: CL from the gym.... hotness!!!!

a very petty petty entry

this entry is not earth shattering, its not a scandal, its not important, it would not cure cancer or HIV, it would not make you feel good nor feel bad... its just a petty petty entry... i just need to vent so just bear with me.

if you would ask me 3 yrs. ago who would i be if i were on Grey's Anatomy... i would instantly say Cristina Yang, with a new job as Chief of Surgeon, without Burke (because i'm just too good for him) & with McDreamy, McSteamy & Karev at the palm of my hands like a sick puppy, that how confident i was.

ever since i was a kid i never doubted myself, failure & rejection was never a part of my vocabulary. but then fast forward to now, if i were on Grey's Anatomy... i would be Meredith without McDreamy or McVet, re-taking my internship & Mrs. GVT would be my Cristina, but instead of listening to what she would say, i would just pour my heart to her & just stay still... & do absolutely nothing. thats how bad i am doubting myself.

i am a true blue pessimist but it always works to my advantage, but not anymore... my insecurities has gotten into me & i just hate myself for being that, its not healthy anymore.

last night after venting out my blah problem to Mrs. GVT, she together with her sis has devised 5 simple rule for me to follow:

How to start anew!
1. Leave gadgets at the locker. Ipod/Phone = anti-social.
2. Try to smile back, when someone looks or stares at you.
3. Make an eye contact.
4. Try to start a conversation with a mere Hi & Hello.
5. Be his txt mate.

whooosahhhh..... .... ... .. .

let there be PEACE... even for just 4 days

i can't wait for the long-long weekend... 4 days of bliss.... no work, no meetings, no computers, no emails, no phone calls, no dramas... NO MORE BAD NEWS!!! but then 4 days is just 4 days... hope i could really really take a break & just sleep, eat, sleep, eat & be my usual happy chatty self (well not usual anymore, i've become this boring, exhausted, unhappy girl lately & it's really making the people around me worried, heck even my old cranky neighbor is worried about me).

i so need to catch up on my reading... as i was flipping to "How to find your one true love by Bo Sanchez" i saw my friends message for me... now these 2 are like the total opposite, Mrs. GVT is the epitome of the perfect Mommy, technically she's not a mom or even a soon-to-be bride yet (now this is worthy of another entry soon) but i think she'll snatch the Best Hot Momma award under your nose anytime & the other one is Mokong the original spawn of evil... enough said

"Hope this enlightens your perspective in finding love. hehe la lang! Parang Kausap mo na rin parents ko while reading this." - Mrs. GVT

"There's no such thing as true love hehehe joke lang, hope this book is a good read though." - Mokong

saw this in the stock room... i almost peed in my pants laughing.


lookie at the presentation, it's like Jaws meets nemo! nyahahaha


Current Obsession: a vision of McSteamy coming out from the shower & straight to my Bed *droool*


Current Addiction: Grey's Anatomy, im in the final episode of Season 3, can't wait to start Season 4... are they still in need of a new character? i so can do a much bitchier/witty/sarcastic/emotionally drained intern, plus my eyes are more prettier than most of them, so its a + that i can still look cute even when all you can see in surgery are my eyes. & then maybe we can add a new twist to the story... why not me... i mean my role as the new love interest for McSteamy... new intern + man-whore... now do i hear *Ka-ching ka-ching" for that?

*Warning* jologs overload

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED

because of all the love... well ok... i am giddy-sickeningly obsessed like a cute puppy with Gym Guy Hottie, all that i can see are people in love, in the verge of falling love or just want to be in love just to be IN this time of the year, im even playing cupid to a friend & her "3-day Wedding groom" & not to mention i soooooooo wanna watch this local super kilig-yet-no brainer movie & that im hooked to the movies theme song wherein i even instruct my co-worker to help me look for it in the net. i so wanna watch the movie, but a lot of things is coming my way... so for now i can just pacify myself with this song:

Kissing you was not what I had planned
And now I'm not so sure just where I stand
I wasn't looking for true love
But now you're looking at me
You're the only one I can think of
You're the only one I see

All I need
Is just a little more time
To be sure of what I feel
Is it all in my mind
Cause it seems so hard to believe
That you're all I need

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
my reputation (what's left of it) is officially down in the drain.

Current Obsession: me & Gym Guy Hottie sitting in a tree... __-__-__-__-__-__-__!!! nyahahaha

Current Addiction: ^ that song

Pre V-day

Dear Cupid,

my PLan A (i ask him out) didn't materialize, blame it on my inner Maria Clara(?), i obviosuly was not prepared for that one to come out from the closet. so we are now proceeding with Plan B.

pls. pls. pls. give Gym Guy Hottie the courage to ask me out. Pramis i won't make a scene or be pakipot, ill just act nonchalant & let him swept me off my feet.

Current Obsession: the start of my happily ever after with Gym Guy Hottie... *kilig*kilig*

Current Obsession: Watch a movie in a movie house... the last movie that i watched was "i now pronounce you Chuck & Larry" last September 2007...

Current Addicton: Shopping =(

yada-yada

i am a total bookworm... but then i am much more of a magazine whore. one time i read about 10 magazine in just one sitting... i READ not browse the whole magazine from cover to cover.

Every year i would received books as a gift from friends, but then I'm too busy to read a book or even browse it. so for this year year I'm planning to read at least 10 books. here are the first 2 on my list

How to find your one True Love by Bo Sanchez

this was given by a very good friend, i think she is telling me something noh? hehehe

Twisted Travels by Jessica Zafra

i collect all of Jessica Zafra's book, i love her sarcastic way of writing, she make every person much sane in this world.

Current Obsession: 2 weeks ago i saw a brown canvas bag from the t-shirt project (they are the makers of Spoofs & Branded) written are the letters LV which stands for Louis Vuitton, but instead written below is LOUIS VAYONG , i super love it!!! too bad i was not in total shopping mode that time, & now i can't forget about it & when i went back to the store its already sold out!!! i have to find my Louis Vayong!!!

Current Addiction: food... & not the healthy kind. I am constantly wanting to eat/nibble something even though I'm really really full. i have an appetite of an 8 year old growing kid craving all the unhealthy food in the grocery aisle & it's not funny anymore.

hello 2008

i haven't blogged about anything worthwhile for a couple of months... things has been really crazy at work... well i should replace that... PEOPLE had been crazy!!!

lots of time I'm really at my tails end, literally banging my head & wondering "what the heck am i still doing here?" i really would have much much preferred riding a camel's back in Egypt or trying out all the street foods in Vietnam rather than be in this real life melodrama every single day. well someday i might just do that.

but then for now i think i just wanna stay & enjoy the real TV in front of me, pray & hope that this time... i can finally do the COLD HEARTLESS BITCH routine... hehehe

so much for wishing 2008 to have less drama... coz we are starting it with a BANG!!!
