Chronicles of Maya 1: The Creepy Photo Show

I'm starting a series about stuff I found in my archives/ files since I'll be doing plenty of cleaning and organizing during the new few weeks.

This one is about the CREEPY stuff. NONE of the pics below have been altered at all. Girl Scout Promise.

Creepy Photo # 1

Pic of me and Chev at M Cafe in Greenbelt. This was when we had drinks with Aimee, Bry, Vina and Dino. We were using night mode but someone's hand was a little shaky, hence this blurry shot. Check out the right corner. If you look closely, you'll see something blue that looks like a face. Gives me the creeps.

Creepy Photo # 2

Pic of me, probably at my thinnest. I don't like it. My eyes look bigger and my lips more Jack-Nicholsonish. My head looks bigger than my body. I like my bulgy cheeks better. This pic gives me the creeps too. Plump is beautiful :P

Creepy Photo # 3

Ok this isn't creepy. It's just plain disgusting. Dirty feet from walking around Vegas. And those chipped nail polish! Horror of horrors!

I can't find anything better to post here since I haven't gone through all my files just yet. I'll improve this post tomorrow. I'm kinda sleepy. It's 2 am. Gasp.

I'm outtie.

My Missing Chevy Playlist

I like making playlists in my Ipod. Usually when I'm trying to fall asleep. So far I have "Rollin' with Mah Homies" hiphop songs, "Slowflow" chillout songs, "Motorcycle Drive-by" road trip playlist (with rise and fall uptempo songs, starts with U2's Beautiful Day and ends with Daniel Powter's You've Had A Bad Day), "Rock Steady Rock" you-guessed-it, my rock playlist. I even have a playlist entitled "Funeral No-no's" (what not to play during a funeral) which I deleted because it was lousy.

Now I have this "Missing Chevy" playlist, composed of songs I dedicate to my long-distance bee Chev. I listen to it when I miss him or when I want to torture myself when I'm sad from missing him too much. I wanted to upload all the songs but it's taking forever. So I'm just listing it down:

Things To Do When I Resign

9 working days to go and I’ll be free as a bird. Now that the day is fast approaching I can’t help but feel anxious. Butterflies in my stomach anxious (flip, flop, flip, flop). I’ll be unemployed!! For the first time in 6 years I won’t have a new job to look forward to and dread at the same time. Mixed emotions. But mostly excitement. I’ll be seeing my bee after 2 months of being apart!! Yay!

I’m trying to plan what to do during the days I will spend waiting for my clearance and moolah. The days before I fly off to the States and so far, here’s what I’ve got.

1. Wake up late…

2. Eat long brunches while watching The Daily 10, The Insider, Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy

3. Clean out my closet.

4. Have a garage sale. Sell old clothes, bags, shoes and accessories. Ok give half of what I find to cousins as “pamana.”…if they’ll take it, that is.

5. Go to the spa for a full body scrub, facial, the works!

6. 3 words: Hip. Hop. Abs.

7. Finish my Gossip Girl Season 1 DVD

8. Finish fixing my wedding clear book / organizer

9. Bake. Try out the recipes I’ve marked on my new cookbook. Now that I’ve got a new hand mixer. Hurray!!

10. Search online for cheap rates and cheap things to do in the US

11. Hang out with friends before I leave (hopefully they’ll treat me because I’m saving all my money…if they can’t treat me, we’ll just YM na lang siguro haha:P)

12. Use the beauty products I have unconsciously accumulated over the past few months a.k.a. magpaganda. Pa. Lalo.

13. Organize, organize, organize.

14. Brush up on my French. Kidding. Eat like the French.

15. Read the stack of books I bought but never got the chance to read

16. Return stuff I borrowed that are still with me.

17. Go out-of-town with parents and sister

18. Magwalis-walis ng bakuran hahaha. Magplano ng kasal-kasalan with Diche Kytes and my wedding dream team.

19. Learn how to cook everyday dishes from Mommy

20. Shop for pasalubong for Chev and baon. The instant pansit cantons and nido soups, chocnuts and hello pandas.
