MMMiii!

Tomorrow night is Dine & Jam night once again. Once again, I don’t have anything special to wear. Not that I need to dress or go to a prom and would need the advice written about ugly prom dresses… But I would like to wear something really presentable. Like what I would wear to my Student Teaching classes starting June.

I’ve started buying clothes little by little… slowly. Too slow, in fact. I’ve only bought a week and a half’s worth of really presentable clothes. Six blouses to be exact. And two slacks. I was hoping I would get the job I applied for a couple of weeks ago sooner so I could actually buy clothes.

Maybe I’ll wear that button-up shirt I bought before… I’ll have to iron again. OMG. I’ve ironed clothes twice for this month already… after not doing that since high school.

Ahh~~ How nostalgic. I’d be up at 4 or 5 in the morning because I still had to iron my uniform, plus do homework and stuff. XD

Anyway…. Dine & Jam tomorrow. I’m gonna get fat again. :[

Early in the wee hours of the day, while Mark and I were walking towards Kowloon House for our siopao fix, we passed by this stand that I thought still sold cheap sushi. They didn’t sell their cheap sushi anymore, which is just as well. I don’t think it was safe. It probably stayed in the refrigerator or in the displays for more than a day or two. Mark said he would still buy it if they sold sushi there. Since he’d be buying it everyday, they’d have to make new ones and refresh their displays.

That makes sense.

Speaking of sushi… Last week, for my birthday get-together with my amigas, we ate at Kimono Ken for dinner. We had some Crunchy California Maki. California Maki here is rolled inverted (I think is what it is called) sushi (or rice on the outside) with mango and cucumber and imitation crab meat inside and rolled around in fish roe. Sometimes, they give a soy sauce & wasabi dip, and sometimes Japanese mayonnaise. I told my Japanese friend about this.

He was astounded. He had never heard of fruit sushi in his whole life as a Japanese. I think he’s 30-40 years old… or more. I looked it up online, and I found out that the original California rolls, the same ones some of the menus featured in this top ten San Diego sushi restaurants, are ones with avocado inside. That one surprised me as well. I’ve known all my life–not that it’s been a long time since I got introduced to sushi–that California rolls–or Cali Maki to most Filipinos–had mangoes inside, not avocado.

The same goes with the crunchy sushi I like so much. He felt like the Japanese sushi he knew was being degraded and insisted that those weren’t sushi.

This conversation led to fruits inside sushi, and searching through dear Google brought about Papaya Sushi and Banana Sushi, aside from Mango Sushi. Mango sushi… is okay, I guess, but Papaya and Banana Sushi just made me R.O.F.L.M.A.O.

I learn new things everyday.

I was looking through this website that does Noses. A website about rhinoplasty New Jersey-based has this article about the Ideal Nose. I knew that there was an ideal facial proportions that follow the golden rectangle, and I thought that the nose just had to follow that.

I found out that the perfect nose isn’t just about the shape of the face and the relationship of the nose to it. There are factors aside from the facial proportions such as angles and planes. Certain factors like the ears and the eyes as well as the lips also attribute to this perfect nose. The perfect nose also affects the nostrils or the nose holes.

My nose is .. umm… almost flattish. and fat. :<

I was talking with Matt about boobies. I keep complaining about how much I don’t like mine. Our conversation led to different breast enlargement effects like lumpy boobs or rock solid boobs. Then I remembered Sarah’s post about plastic surgery in this New Jersey clinic. New Jersey breast enlargement is also offered in that web site. I saw it because I read Sarah’s blog often and I do look at the links she posts sometimes.

Putting that aside, what do people think about plastic surgery in general? I watched this Korean movie called 200 Pounds Beauty and it makes me wonder if a lot of people are open-minded about this. Some guys want their women to be “Natural” but would love looking at girls with “Perfect” bodies. I think this is a little unfair…

Anyway, more about unnatural breasts, I had this one teacher describe Rica Peralejo’s breasts in the movie Tatarin where in she apparently just had her breasts done. Prof Neil said she was on her back and shaking her body wildly and her boobs hardly moved at all.

Iks and Eelai went to Palawan and they left the dogs home because they can’t have the dogs on the plane. I wish there was something here like dog boarding where they can leave their pets somewhere whenever they need to go somewhere. Eelai’s going to Washington right after their Palawan trip for business so she’ll be leaving the dogs again.

In a dog boarding place, they won’t feel lonely. Right now, Pocky is like dragging her paws around because she misses Iks and Eelai.

I planned to walk them this morning but I woke up late because I was up til the wee hours in the morning talking with Mark. LoL.

It’s my cousin Mark’s birthday today. We were chatting through GTalk even if he’s just–literally–next door. Ever since they–he and Charles–got a connectible computer of their own, they’ve been staying online as well. Less bandwidth for me. Yes, I want to complain, but that wouldn’t really be worth anything.

Anyway, I said I was hungry, and then I greeted him Happy Birthday. Then he said he wanted to eat siopao–meat buns. I asked him if it was his treat. He said yes, as long as the Iced Tea is on me.

So we went to Kowloon House and bought 2 jumbo siopao and 2 bolabola siopao and sharksfin siomai. Then we walked to 7-11 and bought Iced Tea. Yes, Iced Tea has to be capitalized.

We consumed the stuff in the office–our version of the living room, I guess–and we talked. From the time he met me at my door, to Kowloon House, to 7-11, to the office… until we gave up eating because we were full, we were talking. Reminiscing our EEE days, even high school days even if we went to different schools, his job, what he wants and doesn’t want to do, … life. I felt that I learned a little more about him, and I realized that I don’t really know him anymore, considering we were a little close to each other while growing up. I was even the one he consulted when he was picking his course choice for UP. We talked about computer stuff as well.
