Finally! I’ve been trying for the longest time to get a copy of He’s Just Not That Into You after Bea recommended it for me during the peak of my Hapee Boy pining days. Haha. I couldn’t find a copy everywhere I looked (even in Davao)– and guess where I was able to find one?! In SM Muntinlupa!!! I went there earlier today to get my haircut at Ricky Reyes since my stylist was transferred to that branch. While waiting for my turn, I decided to check National Bookstore if they had a copy and they did! And so I bought it. I’ve only read the first chapter so far and all I can say is, my god I was such a crazy woman making all these excuses before!!! What the hell was I thinking?!?! I won’t be OC this time and I will write notes and highlight all I want on the book… just to remind me of why I bought the book and had to read it in the first place!

I got the Kokology 2 book last Friday from an exchange gift at the office. We each wrote what we wanted to receive on a wishlist and I wrote down two things– this book, or pirated DVDs of Ugly Betty. The entire department wasn’t present when we had the gift exchange in Attica (A-Venue), but my Santa (Marco) had them give it to me. I was so happy I got the book! Well it’s not like it was out of stock and I didn’t have enough money to get it, it’s just that I didn’t want to buy it since I still have a lot of books to read here at home. I’m just happy that I got the gift on my wishlist :)

In other news I had a total pampering/ beautifying today. I had my haircut, as I already mentioned earlier, early this afternoon. I feel like my hair’s grown to an ugly style since November and so I wanted a new look for Christmas. I’ll be seeing most of my relatives for the first time since I left for Davao so at least I want them to see a good looking me! I also had my eyebrows and upper lip threaded, and the dreaded brazilian wax, waaaaaaah! Please remind me that it’s painful!!! Anyway it’s all worth it naman since it feels really clean down there. As to the threading… better not to have my eyebrows growing all over the place, and a tiny moustache on my face! LOL how vain! Angeli was joking that I was doing all of this for my crush at the office. Hahaha NOT!!! Of course not! It’s about inner confidence naman!

It’s my last 2 days at the office tomorrow. :( Sad, sad! I’ll be meeting up with Tetet, my friend from the Davao office, who’s in Manila for the holidays with her family. Tomorrow after work I’ll be availing of my spa GC’s at Wensha Spa– my door prize from the Christmas Party. And it will be my last time to see my crush! Waaaaaah!!! (We’re super textmates now by the way, at least!) But I can’t wait for Christmas– I need a lot of time to rest before I start working again!
