My New Bag and Shot Glasses
After kong ma-pagod kanina sa pag-debug nung device namin with my buddy and the designer, I treated my self. I bought a new bag. I thought twice of buying it coz parang mahal. Orig Price is at $45. Sale price is $39.99 (excluding the 8.25% tax). I consulted this to Ariel and he told me that I should buy it na coz baka mag-sisi ako pagbalik ko ng pinas pag diko pa binili. Kaya binili ko na din kanina nung magyaya yung kasama ko na pumunta ng GreatMall. Bibili kasi sya ng Jacket in preparation for his trip going to Minnesota on Sunday. Nalibot ata namin buong Mall pero di sya nakabili. Buti pa yung isang buddy namin na nag-shopping galore na nung saturday. Bumili sya ng Jordan Rubber shoes for $85. Hehehe. PHP6K daw kasi yun sa Pinas. Ako naman, finally, binili ko na yung bag na isang linggo ko nang iniisip kung bibilhin ko. I am still lucky...$29.99 na lang pala sya plus the tax. tipid pa din ako ng $10. Hay. At last nabili ko na din.
This is bag, pero diko makuha yung totoong kulay sa picture eh. I don't know why...
Madami na naman nadagdag sa collection ko ng shot glasses. Wala lang. Natuwa ako kaya I took some picture and posted here before ako maging busy ulit. Hehehe. Madagdagan pa kaya ito? Uuwi na kasi isang buddy namin eh. Kulang na kami ng isang driver and gimikero.

Half Sunday...
Half lang Sunday ko kasi 2pm nako ginising ng isang phonecall from my buddies. Punta daw kami sa Macy's to buy Victoria Secret perfume for his GF and mom. Hay..430pm na sila dumating. Sa Steven's Creek pa kami nagpunta. Mahal talaga sa Macy's hanggang Gilroy na lang talaga siguro ako or Greatmall. Sabagay, Victoria Secret lang naman pakay namin dun. Madami din siempre binili yung buddy. Puro pampasalubong. Pero ako din siempre, I bought 5 panties- yung cotton lang na sale( 5 for $25) and my lotions and cologne (sale din - 5 for $30). Ito mga nabili ko except the panty..hehehe.
Gilroy Trip, Pyrex and Smirnoff
Kahit puyat kami nung Friday, nagpunta pa rin kami sa Gilroy (Factory Depot) para samahan yung friend namin na uuwi na sa 9/23. Madami syang nabili..grabe, shopping galore sya. He bought a Sony Home Theater package, Guess bag for her mom,Bass slippers for her GF and mom, Oakley Sunglasses for his brother and Pyrex. Ako din, daming gustong bilhin but tipid muna ako. I only bought a Levis pants for Ariel and the Pyrex below.
Mura sya eh compared sa Philippines. Got it for $10.81 including tax. PHP500 daw isang piece nito sa pinas ito eh.
I was looking for the Esprit shop pero wala na pala sya dun. Sayang, sobrang mura pa naman dun. Alis kami dun ng mga 630pm.
We went to Safeway to buy some Smirnoff and Corona Beer to give to our buddy who is celeebrating his bday in advance (9/13 pa bday nya). He'll wife prepared something for us. Na-miss kasi nila madaming kasamang filipino.
Dito medyo tinamaan ata ako, got to finish 5 bottles of smirnoff. Pero composed pa din ako kahit nag-trip magbasa ng newspaper to look for SALE. Sayang wala akong copy ng mga pictures. Hingin ko na lang sa kanila next time.By the way, 4am na kami nakauwi. Got to chat and talk with Ariel before sleeping from 4am to 6am. Hay, sobrang puyat nako but ok pa din kasi I was able to talk with my Ariel.

Last Friday...
Nagkatuwaan kami last friday..alam ng mga kasama ko dito na I don't cook much. Kaya I was assigned to cook last friday and we had some drinking session in my apt.
Na-pressure ako nun and buti naman coz ok naman daw luto ko. I had 1/3 glass of the tiquila mix they prepared and a bottle of Smirnoff.
My other buddy brought his magic mic and we had some singing session while drinking. 2 PM na sila nag-uwian. Wawa naman tuloy yung baby nung kasama ko. But nakatulog naman sya.

US Labor Day Weekend....
This is the continuation of my labor day kwento..
We're so happy while waiting to arrive to Grand Canyon. Being lost in a gost town-like is an unforgettable experience for us. We felt disappointed when it rained going to the view site of the canyons. We regret not checking on weather forecast. However, we saw the forecast in the gate when we paid $20 for the entrance that morning should be sunny and in the afternoon, we may experience some rain showers. Hay... so disappointing. We got there at 11am. The plan then was to park and eat our lunch baon in the car and buy a rain coat. After we have eaten, we went to the souvenir store and I bought a shot glass ( my collection). 'Di na kami bumili ng raincoat kasi medyo tumigil na yung ulan and ang mahal. $6.5 ba naman. Hmmp. So after that drive na ulit sa mga viewing sites. We're still blessed. Tumigil na nang tuluyan yung ulan. Baliktad yung weather forecast sa GATE. Hahaha. So ayun. Yung mga boys yung mahilig sa pictures. Grabe, lahat yata ng sulok and viws, pina-picture-an.
Hehehe. ALmost nalibot namin lahat pati yung tower where we can view the Colorado river. Hay...so kakapagod maglakad. Mga 5pm bumaba na kami. We stopped in a bazaar and watched an indian dancing and performing special stuffs.
Then, drive na ulit, this time mas exciting,going to Las Vegas na. 4hour drive din ata. Tulog ulit ako. Hehehe. We stopped at Hoover Dam but since gabi na,wala na kami masyado makita kaya tuloy ang drive to L.V. buaks na lang daw kami balik dun.
When we reached vegas, hanap na kami ng hotel. We checked-in Clarion Hotel for $119/night (saturday night) and $79 for Sunday night. After namin mababa mga gamit, punta na kami sa Excalibur for the buffer but to bad for us.11pm na pala yun and it is already closed. Dun na lang kami sa katabing chinese fastfood kumain. Ok din naman. Sobra na kaming pagod nun kaya balik na kami sa hotel. Yung 2 kasama ko,plastado, tulog agad.
Sunday, we woke up at 10am and got to Excalibur at 11am for the BRUNCH buffet. It was good but expensive if I'll convert it to PHP. Kaya Kain na lang kami. Hehehe. After lunch balik kami sa South for the Hoover dam visit which is about an hour drive from Vegas. Got there at almost 2pm. Sobrang init. Grabe, kakauhaw dun.Tapos yung mga kasama, wala silang masyadong ginawa kundi mag-picture at mag-video ng mga views and beaties sa ilalim ng initan....Patay na naman ang delicate kong skin. Balik sa dating anyo.hehehe.
4pm umalis na kami. Balik sa hotel. Tawag sa mga love ones- may pasok na sa Philippines kasi Monday na but sa Vegas, Sunday afternoon pa lang. Kainis nga lang kasi,sira pa isang payphone kaya intayan kami. Tapos, shower lang kami then gawa na ng plan for the night. 1st in the list is going North.
First stop was Hard Rock Hotel. Lumuwa mga mata ng guys na kasama ko kasi madaming naka 2-pc lang sa entrance ng hotel. Mayroon atang beach theme party sa loob ng hotel. Hehehe. Pero we only took picture outside the Hard Rock Cafe. Mga kasama ko talaga, hilig sa picture. Next stop was Stratosphere. Picture lang ulit sa labas. Pumasok din kami so we can go the the top and have some picture but we need to pay for $12 for the entrance in the lounge kaya di na kami tumuloy kasi sayang naman kung papapicture lang kami tas aalis na agad.
After that, drive na kami sa South Vegas. Dito ang masaya. Madaming tao. Madaming naglalakad. Kaya pag muna namin sasakyan namin tas lakad na kami to Alladin, Paris and Eiffel Tower. Walang katapusang Picturan. After that, kain muna kami sa BK para mura. Then lakad ulit. Daan sa Ceasar's Palace. Nuod ng fountain show sa Bellagio twice. Ang ganda. And it was so romantic. I missed Ariel so much kaya I just used my digicam to capture the fountain show and show to Ariel when I come back. Hay...
Tapos nun. Lakad ulit kami to the souvenir shop and bought my shot glass. Then, sakay sa elevator ng overpass nila. Sosi noh?! overpass na merong escalator and elevator. Then lakad ulit this time to New York-New York. Siempre. Pictures ulit. Pictures na marami. Hay kakapagod na. Then we went inside NY-NY for the Coyote Ugly Bar. It was the guys' idea pero ok lang sakin. Dami naman girls din dun eh. Entrance was $10. Masaya naman. Sayaw konti. Masid-masid. Walang pilipino sa loob. Kami lang. Hahaha. Kahit dun sa labas, wala ata kaming nakitang pilipino. Asan kaya sila?! So ayun, kahit 'di ako umiinom ng beer, napainom din ako ng Bud Light. Pero nilumot sakin yun. Hahaha. Yung mga lalaki, naka 3 bottles. Know what, medyo mas liberated yung mga mexicans dun. Yung nakatabi namin. Nagwawala. Super dikit ng katawan sa kasayaw nya. Parang bangag. Pero nung yung friend nya yung kasayaw nung kasama nya. nagsayaw mag-isa. Sinasayaw sya ng mga mexicans pero lumalayo sya. Gusto nya, puti lang sasayaw sa kanya. Ti-na-try din nga nung isang kasama ko pero ayaw din. Hahaha. Buti nga. But in fairness, the hosts are good, they can entertain the guest well and keep on asking the girls to participate and dance on the stage. Muntik nako sumayaw thinking na wala naman makakakilala sakin pero I can't. Siguro kung kasama ko si Ariel, ginawa ko yun. Hehehe. Pero you know what, pwede pala mag video and kumuha ng picture sa loob, di sila strict. Kaya ayun, yung kasama kong mga baliw, kumuha ng mga picture. See some nice shots below.
This is the poster outside the building.
The bartenders and hosts dancing to the Coyote Ugly Theme Song.
The other bartenders.
The dancing guests.
One of the best shots- after the coyote dance.
This is us. Sa gilid lang us. Mahiyain kami eh.
After ma-satisfy nila sarili nila taking pictures, labas na kami at 2am. I bought 2 shirts (w/ and w/o sleeeves) and a shot glass there.
After that, MGM naman. Hay..kakapagod na. Siempre..picture picture ulit. Pasok din kami sa loob and of course, pictures ulit. Medyo pagod na kami. Kaya, pahinga muna sa lakad and spend about $2 playing slot machine. Hehehe. Diko talaga kayang sumugal ng malaki coz I know that I am not lucky in gambling.
Hay.. yung 2 naming kasama, gusto pa maglakad, pero pagod na kami kaya sabi namin, this is all we can do for the day. There might be some other time. At least, marami na din kaming napuntahan. Hay..kaya balik na kami sa hotel and slip.
On monday morning, we woke up at 10am. 11am paalis na kami ng Vegas, gusto sana pa namin punta sa LA kahit sandali lang pero dahil traffic, di na kami nag-try..Hehehe. We had our brunch in the desert- but in Denny's Diner. Kainis nga lang na di friendly mga crew dun except dun sa Old Mexican Man na dining crew. Pagtapos nun...isang mahabang biyahe na dahil sa traffic. Kakainis. Ganun daw talaga pag long weekend kasi madaming nag-in-inter state vacation/trip. Got home at 11pm. I was so tired kaya after calling Ariel, tulog na agad ako.
Next time na lang yung ibang pictures ha?...

Welcome to Ghost Town
So ito na start ng kwento ko of our Labor Day gimik. The initial plan was to go Grand Canyon, Vegas and L.A. but this had changed due to some unexpected event.
We went home early friday night. We plan to leave San Jose at 830pm but 9:30 na kami nakaalis. May mga pasaway kasi. Apat lang kami and I am the only girl. Pinaalam ko ito kay Ariel and ok lang sa kanya. He wanted me to enjoy my stay here. Una ako sa sinundo then yung isa, medyo matagal kami dun kasi may conference pa with her "mama". Then sundo naman namin yung isa-madali lang ito. Before we go, grocery muna kami ng ibang kailangang dalhin.
We had used the Expedia Map. Nung, paalis medyo gising pa diwa namin. Kulitan, wento wento, tsismis-mga kalalaking tao tsismoso. Hahaha. Mga 2pm slip na kamng dalawa sa likod. Hirap matulog sa kotse. Hirap humanap ng position. Konti pa lang tulog ko then at 430, ginising na kami. Palit naman. Ako na navigator tas yung isa naman yung driver. Maganda teamwork namin but nung dumating na kami sa route 66 as per the map medyo naguluhan na kami. Nawala kami. Napunta kami sa parang ghost town na puro old english man ang tao. Parang place ng mga cowboy. Nilagpasan pa namin yun kasi natakot kami magtanong. Bka nandi-discriminate sila or baka barilin na lang kami ng mga cowboy dun. That was at 730am. Sarado pa mga establishments dun. Pero bilid ako. Ang layo sa kabishasnan pero meron silang ATM machine. Grabe! Dumiretso lang kami pero nung parang wala na kaming nakikitang patutunguan, sugal na kami, nagtanong na kami. 2 lang ang bumaba, asked sila sa dun sa matanda, ang sama ng tingin sa kanila . Racist yata. Hmmp. Pero at least sinabi nila na mali yung daan namin. So balik kami sa nakakatakot na daan. Bangin-bangin. Grabe. Buti madami kaming gas. See below pix of the ghost town-like na napuntahan namin (ROUTE66).
Dahil dito mga 4 hours din nasayang namin. Nagtanong-tanong kami sa GAS station. Buti merong old lady na nakapagsabi ng tamang way to Grand Canyon. Thanks God. Kahit about 200 miles away pa kami.
Antok na ko nun kaya nakatulugan ko yung driver. Ang bait kong navigator no?! Gumising din naman ako nung malapit na kaming exit sa Hway 40. 1 hour din ata ako nakatulog. Hahaha.

Friday pa lang sa US ngayon.8pm pero sa Pinas Saturday na and 11pm.Bday ng mommy ko. Tinawagan ko na sya kanina to greet her a Happy bday. Sabi ko kay ariel, dala nya cake si mommy today.
You know what, parang matagal umandar ng clock dito pero in reality I feel that napakabilis ng oras dito. Ang dami kasing trabaho and I feel na wala ako natatapos. Kainis nga eh.
Anyway, buti na lang at may labor day holiday dito ngayon and it's gonna be a long wikend for me. We're going to Grand Canyon and marami pa daw. Di ko lam kung san pa kasi hamak na pasahero lang ako...
heto nga at hinihintay ko na alng yung mga susundo sakin.
By the way, my baby is very busy today. wawa ng asya eh. sya lang asikaso ng mga dapat gawin para sa paglipat nya sa house namin. He just paid the water connection fee and he'll be inspecting our unit for any possible damage or whatever. Umuulan pa nga daw dun eh. Commute lang sya. hirap siguro. hope I can help him pero dito ako eh. di bale...83 days na lang....
