i'm so happeee with a capital E!

Three main reasons why this Saturday rocked:

3) Transformers poster

Mababaw pero sobrang inlababo pa rin ako sa pelikulang 'to! The poster's so big and the printing's so clear and it's on matte paper. Alavet! I usually have a hard time shopping for clothes here, but I think this is one of my best buys for myself so far. Haha!

2) Watching Urbandub for the first time!

I can't believe I never watched them in the Philippines! They're here in SG for the Baybeats Festival, and man, I really had a blast watching them live! I kept hooting whenever they say they're from the Philippines and I screamed like crazy after every song. I was really so damn proud to be Pinoy! Ang galing nila! Crush ko na yung drummer kahit di ko pa nakikita mukha nya haha! Idol! I have this deepest desire to learn how to play drums lately. Tapos nung marinig ko sila kanina, shyet nakaka-inspire!

Okay na sana lahat, but of all the days, I didn't bring my camera! Ugghhh. I brought it waiting for Kjwan to play last Friday night but we were late. Buti bumawi kasi ang ganda ng timing namin, and caught all of Urbandub's songs.

Anyway, I was still so high after they played so I bought a shirt from the booth to remember them by. :)

1) Tatoff's EPEC application is APPROVED!

For those who don't know, EPEC stands for Employment Pass Eligibility Certificate. A candidate has to pass certain educational and employment requirements to Ministry of Manpower Singapore. Once approved, the person is entitled to stay in Singapore to look for a job even for as long as one year. It's a big thing coz most jobhunters have to go out of the country after a month to extend their Visit Pass.

So there, now that he has an EPEC, it will be easier for him to look for a job without worrying about the length of stay. Of course, it's still better to find a job soon to prevent spending too much on lodging and other expenses. If I've known about this option earlier, then maybe he's already here now. But anyway, everything has a reason. I'm just so happy coz at least we're a step closer! We've prayed so hard for this. Nabibingi na ata mga santo sa mga nobena ko gabi-gabi. Hehe. I'm really so excited! Malapit na kaming magkasama dito! Weeee! I really hope and pray this works out for us... Matinding lungkot rin ang naranasan namin. Sana naman may kapalit na maganda. Sniff sniff.

Next plea to all the saints: help him find a good-paying job once he moves here! At ako na rin! Bwahaha!

I'm so happeeeee! Thank you, God! :-)

love, jenie
