News Digest
Every now & then I drop a bullet-point email to my closest friends highlighting the biggest things happening in my life at that time, or marginal random pieces of information that I think may be of interest to them. There are times when we call each other several times a day, & there are other times when we don't hear each others' voice for weeks, hence the news digest emails I send out.

To build on that concept and compensate for my absence the past couple of days -which is by the way attributed to a 'working-progress' internet line- I'll let you in on what I've been up to lately, so here goes:

1) I received the official letter from HR stating that I've been promoted to associate manager! Ta-Daaaaaaaa! -- if anything, I'm hoping this would make my mom understand that I have a real job, & that I “just can't leave work conveniently at 2:00”

2) I am contemplating taking a career jump, which I've been thinking over for a while but feel less confused about now. I also intend to discuss this with a person who knows better.

3) Realized that work is so much more fun when you don't have someone micro-managing every bit of what you do. Brilliant!

4) Also realized that men in white breeches, black knee-length riding boots, & jackets are very, very attractive.

5) My fortune cookie du jour said "Love is for the lucky and the brave." *scratches head in deep thought* Considering the fact that I didn't allow myself to take a second glance at the 1800's knight-look-alike rider with piercing dark eyes, and hair brushed back like a fairytale prince - does that make me a coward who'll never find love?

6) Had the best canter on my pony just yet, it was like a dream.. for several minutes there, the two of us were in perfect harmony on lose reins, it was like heaven on earth, a feeling so unique I cannot even begin to describe it, so much bigger than anything I've experienced before & would absolutely LOVE to have that seamless harmony again, and again, and again..x infinity

7) I did a whither-tracing for him, & took his saddle measurements on my own {yey! feels like a true horse-wow-man!} It was a pleasureful experience.

8) The two of us went for a walk in the garden where I held him by the halter, and walked for an hour or so in the midst of long trees and on muddy grounds. We {I, is more like it} ran while he trotted -- it was an absolute delight to be in the company of something so beautiful. I love him! I love himmmmm! I do love him!!

9) Although acrylics dry much faster than oils, I find oils so much more original & colors never lose their vibrance with age. The older the painting, the better it looks.

10) I have a "thing" for philipino style 80's love songs lol

11) G thinks men find me intimidating, & that I should "lower barriers of entry"

12) I think "the greater the risk, the higher the expected return" -- if there's anyone out there worth my time, I have no doubt he would take that risk ;p

13) G also would like a solid affirmation that now he sits highest amongst my bestest fwends list ;p As you can see, he is VERY demanding like that {I hope you're reading this G}

14) My co-worker swears that I do not -in any way- resemble an accurate sample of what Virgos are, & according to him, I cannot be anything but a Gemini. And of course, you & I know exactly how I feel about Geminis ;p so, in all ostensibility I welcome the casual remark & pick a date of birth off of someone else's calendar, the 14th of June. Why did I pick Che Guevara? -- Well, let's see: #1) Umm.. because I'd like some of his influential nature to rub-off on me? No? You don't see that happening? Okay, at least I tried >_<; #2) He's latin, which means that hot by default lol, #3) He had an asthma growing up, we have THAT in common. #4) He is also brutally honest, which -more often than not- got him in trouble. I can tell you a thing or two about getting in trouble for being honest. But to be more realistic, I like the 14th because it falls right in between the birth dates of two people I admire and look up to in many ways, the first was born on the 13th, and the other on the 15th. And now, yours truly is sandwiched between the two =D

Having said that, I do not forgo my right to the 14th of September, I like the fact that the woman who invented contraceptives was born on the same day. See, we're party poopers by default *evil grin* >=] ..and, before I go, I'd like you to watch The Motorcycle Diaries & once you've done that, let's talk about it here.. I'd like to know your throughts, all of you => I love this movie, one of my faaaaaavorites, like, EvErrrrr =D I love the production, and the music, c'est très très bon =D Listen to these music files by the composer:
