Happy 50th Monthsary!

Written on October 26, 2011 by Liz in Love

Giant Dipped Strawberry Roses

My boyfriend and I just celebrated our 50th monthsary yesterday. No anniversary gourmet gifts, no fabulous dates, no more fancy love letters. Just a whole-week bonding time at his place. Every day is special and every little things we do make our relationship more exciting and fulfilling.

I just wish I can do more for him. Say, cook his favorite dishes and bake some sweets? Sweet! I have to learn how to prepare Bicol Express asap!

Anyway, we’re so happy and thankful now! Love grows stronger and surely, it will last forever.

Valentine’s Day for the Boys, Girls and Gays

Written on February 14, 2011 by Liz in Life, Love

How’s your Valentine dates everyone?

Celebrate the season of love!

Lucky are the couples who are dating today instead of reporting to work. I belong to the latter group. Anyway, I’m not frustrated about it. In fact, I’m happy because today is my last day of work. Yeah, Valentine’s day. I intentionally picked this date to spend the Valentine’s day with my friends here at the office. Of course I’ll find time to celebrate with my boyfriend but that can wait. Kidding. We’ve actually decided to have a post-Valentine dinner date at S.R. Thai Cuisine near UST. We have some business to attend to near the university.

Back to the love month talk. How intimate are you with your guy? What do guys talk about when they are with their guy friends? Do they talk about their planned Valentine’s date or dream wedding? Hmmm. As for gays, some conversations are just too shocking! I have nothing against them but hearing them talk about male enhancements with their gay friends makes me shiver.

Birthday Gift for Me

Written on January 24, 2011 by Liz in Family, Life, Love, Sentiments

Another time of the year, 23rd of January… my birthday.

I was not feeling well all week up until now. Headache, colds and stress almost killed me. And to make my day worst, I just got my period. Excuse me, uhm, but I have to tell this to justify the mixed emotions within this post.

I was so happy last Friday for being one of the top FNMers. Yet I was frustrated on Saturday because I was not able to join the APAC reunion. I miss my old team. The rock-solid relationship among the members and the never-ending kindness of previous team leader.

Sunday then, was my birthday.

I celebrated it with my boyfriend and his family. It was night time when I broke down into tears. I was depressed, telling my boyfriend that I’m already twenty six yet I haven’t accomplished a thing. I’m just a dreamer. I enumerated my plans… everything… To the point of pressuring myself. He said I was a worry-wart. I think so. But only during that night. Because it was my birthday, and I had this damn girl thing.

We had a heart to heart talk, a long yet meaningful conversation. The most serious one from all the talks we had within our 3-year and still counting relationship. We planned together. And it made me feel better.

I was in a state of confusion earlier. For an instant, I don’t know what will happen to me after resignation. But then again, he assured me that he will be there. And he reminded me that I am strong. Yes, I will go for my dreams! This is me… and I always go for what I want without hesitation.

Suddenly, I was so inspired again…

And my birthday, ended like that – with me on his loving arms plus countless kisses of reassurance…

Happy Birthday to me!!!

PS.

If you have to give me a birthday gift, I am not asking for anything material. Not a PS3, iphone 4, laptop or DSLR. Just your prayers. Pray that I become healthier, stronger and successful. Thank you…

Best Japanese Movie: My Rainy Days

Written on October 30, 2010 by Liz in Love, Movies

I thought A Moment To Remember will remain number one on my list. But after watching My Rainy Days, everything has changed. I fell in love with Nozomi Sasaki and that movie is now my favorite. Best favorite, to be exact. Haha.

Sweet Reward

Let’s have some fun here. Below are the screen shots of my favorite scenes. How did Rio and Kouki end up kissing in the library? Back track starting from the movie poster above. (In reverse order)

Kilig to the max!

Oh gosh, I was uber kilig and blushing while watching. It’s one of the sweetest things a guy could do! Haha. I really really love the way it happens. Yeah, it just happens. Watch it and you’ll get what I mean.

Gotcha! She finally got his attention!

Pretty Bored! Literally...

Study time, not play time!

Unlike the romance movies I’ve watched before, My Rainy Days is an all-in-one chick flick that’s worth countless replays! Oh yeah, I can’t get over this film! It features not only love but also friendship, family virtues, work passion and other challenges. A slice of life in some sort.

Love is definitely the great catalyst of all times. Because of her feelings toward Kouki (Shosuke Tanihara), Rio leaves her own self behind. But she’s still the pushy, aggressive yet delicate type that Kouki learned to love. Kouki in turn becomes less anti-social and start having hope because of Rio. You see, even the simple mistakes are meant to take place. If not with the wrong photos sent to them, those two won’t meet that fateful rainy day… Err, in fact they had their unofficial encounters when Rio was 14 (at the hospital) and 17(at the bar).

I really enjoyed this simple yet moving story. How will you treasure the sweet memories that are about to fade? How will you keep loving someone who is about to forget everything including you? Such a torture, right? Rio is brave enough to start all over again. Her rainy days are not all about tears rolling down her cheeks but also having Kouki back in her arms.

My Rainy Days – a must watch movie!
