So obviously Obama got his wish when all of his enemies died one by one this year, the last of which died just this week.  RIP Kim Jung Il.  Americans will have a merry christmas after all.

MEGA Typhoon -Sedang

once again, parts of our country (Cagayan de Oro and Iligan City), swiped out by this mega typhoon.  One thousand dead as of today.  This mass killing is unimaginable.  Is end of the world near?  


I offer a silent moment in prayer for everyone, fortitude for those who survived and eternal peace for those who died.  Amen.

People Watch at Hongkong and GuangZhou, China

My awesome friends since my son was in prep.  8 SOLID yrs. man!
(Eugene, Tiffany, me, Leigh and Chino)

Two of my good friends who traveled with me to GuangZhou on the foreground.
I heard that friends who travel together get to know each other better 
and would love to kill each other in the end.
Not us! We just laughed and had fun ALL THE WAY.

That's the Consul General of Tunisia chilling at the lobby of Westin Hotel.
It pays to be his friend. We got extra baggage allowance, vip treatment at the airport,
and I got to eat his left over sausage mcmuffin for free!
(it tasted good with bland lugaw)

On my way to the grocery.  I may look like I'm waltzing in the middle of the street here. 
That's my SWAGGER sooo cool
(at my son's school dorm)

FOOD! Fast food in the Republic at City Plaza, Taikoo Shing, Hongkong

My perennial travel mate having the time of her life people-watching

Christmas is for everyone, yknow

my travel mate still like a child

She just loves mascots and the like

My Stuff & things iLOVE

My white Birkin so angas!  It's not THAT white any more but I prefer it that way.  It's so easy to dress up and it gives off the impression that the owner of a white bag is a clean freak (which I'm def so not).  Contrary to what everyone thinks, it is not high maintenance in the sense that, well, actually you just need a Staedler eraser to remove whatever dirt it incurs.

totally crazy about my new Versace January Jones shades
(I will have a short feature of all the famous people who wore it)

these face blotters don't come cheap but hey, I'm not complaining
(REVOLUTIONARY cosmetics is what I call it)

REAL STEAL: Vichy eye make up remover; St. Ives and SebaMed products
they're cheap and they actually work!

my latest skin care fav of the moment: concentrated vit C
(formulated by a Japanese dermatologist)

accessory of the moment: a neckpiece that never fails to steal the limelight
it magically spruces up any drab ensemble

arrest me if you can

eat your hearts out, BITCHES!!!

Dahling, subtle is so not me.  For the soft and weak I try to be gentle but you're still not gonna like it.  I view the world armed with a kaleidoscope and my signature satire humor.  I'm not the typical lovable and adorable person you immediately bond to upon the first few meetings.  I can walk in a place full of people and act like I own it.  My voice resonates long after I finish talking and my laughter is legendary.  Believe me, a lot of people are intimidated by this rather endearing personality that needs to be unhurriedly uncovered.  I swear, my friends can attest to this!  

I find people who cannot talk straight to the point lacking either in courage or conviction.  I can smell a hypocrite a mile away and when I smell one I have this self-imposed exile rule that I follow and avoid any  possibilities of developing close ties with them.  Honey, if you're too good to be true then you are not!  I don't buy those goody two shoes so you might as well walk with none.  

Joke Time

Not many people get my jokes.  And I KNOW WHY.  Of course it's because I'm sucha a lovable and sweet comic!  HE HE HE (evil laugh)

THANK YOU GOD

If Only

If I could I would remove all your fears

If I could I would remove all your tears

If I could I would make life painless

If I could I would give you all your courage

Dear Hades,

I am defeated.  But it is not over.  You got my strongest soldier and it pains me.  She will come around, you will see.  All those years of loving won't go to waste.  How you wish we give up and surrender.  We are all wounded but she will fight you.  Great evil has risen from unexpected sources but it will NEVER overcome the power of good.  She will come around.  This is her battle and she will fight you.  You will see. 

Dear God,

Why can't we live happily together?  Why does she think that she has to prove herself?  I thought only good will come out of good?  Wasn't I good enough?  Can You make us whole again?  Wasn't I faithful to You all this time?  I think of myself and I am reminded of Job.  Will I suffer the same test?  

P.S. I am just trying my best not to fall apart.  

much love, your faithful servant...phina

NO TO THIS

I say NO to this.
Is that IMPOSING MY THOUGHTS on you?
As if ... you care, right.

WHY

If you feel restrained and suffocated in your home but you can't get away

sometimes it pays to stop and look around you and examine your days

If where you are is not much fun anymore and you get so lonely

and you want to fight for your identity and find yourself

but you always hide yourself and afraid to straighten your ways

At the end of the road, you always lose control

so tell me, how can you ever be happy?

What if there's no more time for another try?
