To Birthdays and Long Life
Pardon the temporary default Kubrick layout. *hehe* I finally upgraded my WordPress 1.2 to WordPress 1.5.1.3 last July 8, 2005. I had planned to do this for so long now. 
And I was forced with the sudden onslaught of heavy spammage. Did I mention I love the spam prevention features of 1.5 in Inseparable? As you can see, I am in the process of revamping all the contents too. 
I hope *cross fingers* to get it done soon.
Last June 28, I watched Monster-In-Law with hunbun, mommy, and san-e in Greenhills Promenade. It was a feel-good romantic comedy and I loved it. But I would very much hate it though if I had that horrible a mother-in-law. 
Before that, I went on a little shopping spree and bought myself a cute pair of jeans from Kamiseta. It had an adorable pink and yellow stitch detail. Hunbun and I also had an early dinner at Fuzion. *ugh* Never eat there. The place is overpriced with yucky food.
That Friday (July 1, 2005), hunbun and I went to Power Plant. We had dinner at Kaya, our favorite Korean restaurant, and watched War of the Worlds. It was a great special effects movie but the ending was really anti-climatic. And I finally bought a new bag - and it’s the one I’ve been eying for quite a while now. 
Mine is in reversible pink and black. *huggles it*
We celebrated hunbun’s dad’s birthday on July 3. His actual birthday was not until July 5, 2005 though. We ate at Emerald Garden. *mmm* Hunbun’s whole family was there and his dad’s Chinese friends. They talked about sports and illnesses over the dinner table. It was a bit disturbing and definitely not appetizing for me. But my favorite dessert -honey taro- was there and that was good enough for me.
I made (as hunbun calls it) the second joke of my life last July 6, 2005. Steph and I were heading for our booth shifts when we met Allan.
me: Sec-C *point to the direction*
Allan: ano?
me: kami
me and Steph: lol!
(extra) hunbun: lol *sigh*
I only had one class the next day - Thursday. My groupmates and I worked on our history project. Then I went to the Guidance Office for my routine counselling with Ms. Riza. It felt great to talk. Going all the way back to my freshman days, I’ve never felt sure I was in the right course - Computer Science? I’m still not 100% sure now. But at least I’ve realized that I need to go through this hardship in order to attain my future goal which is have an e-commerce business and be a web developer or designer. Shortly afterwards, I got a terrible headache. I guess that little enlightenment caused me to have a migrain. That night my whole family went to Harbor City for dinner slash get-together because it was mom’s birthday! I was really amused with all the funny high schol stories Ahia Mike had and my sibling’s children’s escapades. *heh*
We had no classes on July 8, 2005. And we had an air-conditioner installed in our living room! *yay* That afternoon, hunbun and I made an excel database of all the movies we’ve ever watched together. Although, I think I lost some of the tickets. 
We also watched the Thai movie “Shutter”. It was scary. Eep!
The next day, I accompanied mom in praying the rosary. It’s because she is going to have an operation to take out her gall stones. Mom had surgery on July 12, 2005. I went to the hospital to visit her every day she was confined. But she had a good recovery. Thank you Lord. 
She just came home yesterday.
Oh, I learned about the Mobius Strip yesterday from my Philo101 teacher. It’s astounding! *lol* I must learn to discover something like that someday I went to hold a Celadon Class with my co-managers yesterday. I had a good time and met my flock for the rest of the year. I also went to Kaingin Symposium to clarify things about The Big Day.

Congrats on the upgrade!
Just got to love the Wordpress 1.5, don’t you? 
I heard that 1.5.1, 1.5.1.1 and 1.5.1.2 was pretty unstable, though. Quite a lot of new bugs. So I was pretty relieved when 1.5.1.3 came out.
Help me wish your hun’s dad a Happy Birthday. :)

Haha, it’s Kubrick! Can’t wait to see you customise your theme, I love your layouts. :)
Ooooh, the tote bag looks so cute! Maybe I can make one myself, it looks so neat. Reversible too, how economical.
Can’t think of anything else to say, so take care and have fun with WP 1.5.1.3!

Hmm, your goal in Computer Science sounds really nice! I might want to do something like that, but not a webdesigner though… Maybe a webdeveloper… Anyways, I have to get going, so take care!!

Hunbun Trivia: Today August 1, 2005, Gretchelle woke up after 18 hours of sleep! Haha!
Darlingpie was scared of Shutter! Hehe! It’s a suprisingly good horror movie from Thailand.
Love is so happy with her new bag and that’s absolutely great! She looks so adorable with it. Pink with black is both stylish and cute at the same time! (Just like Bunch!)
Anyway, we do watch a whole lot of movies! Too bad some of the tickets were nowhere to be found and that’s sad.
I hope to watch more movies with my love soon.
Next target movie: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Gretch likes this and hopefully it would be a visual fest even if the stroy sounds so terrible. Haha! Love you Bunnie!
