if this bass could only talk

it has come to this.

here i was working till the wee hours of the morning when someone mentioned the whole gucci gang blog that everyone has been talking about. To which my friend said - do you live in manila? how can you not know about it?? well aside from the fact that i purposely avoid getting involved in controversies, and constantly believe ignorance is bliss...my life has really changed in recent years. even more so now with much focus on work. i had to finish something late last night so had to cancel my drinks with M at greenbelt. tsk tsk, very bad. but then again, that's all it has been about - work. i'm not complaining though because I know I have it good currently. But here I am after an hour of prep for the launch today. After so much product info in my head though, i'm just worrying about the summer themed outfit i'm supposed to wear to the presscon. See? still have priorities hehe.

but i suppose a lot of us are relishing other people's lives for lack of substance in our own. I find myself talking about what's happening with other people because honestly, i don't have much to share about my life - well as compared to last year. it has been pretty steady although not boring. Boring maybe to others but like I already said, things have changed. Even gone are the days when i like the sociable man in my life. Now I just want someone quiet who isn't out to socially mingle with the whole world but me. I prefer the one I can rely on - my rock. I'm tired of being the rock for everyone else. my turn baby.

Speaking of babies, and not all the weddings lately, I was just talking to some girlfriends about the cost of having one now. Have a friend who is killing herself putting her kid to Zobel, Southridge...and she has three. Now my old drinking buddy has told me she's on her 4th pregnancy. Whoa. Think you need to be a millionaire to raise four kids and put them to the right schools etc. And the baby expenses...i'm even in saving mode so this puts a strain on my calculating brain. Well at least with my cancelling my US trip I have lots more funding to invest or time deposit.

oh well, i gotta get ready for work.
