supersize me

my little sister's home for a week -- she'll be here til after halloween hooray! and my big brother's staying at home for a couple more days as well hooray again! my favorite part about having my parents out of the country for a couple of days at a time is that my siblings and i seem to be able to bond more.

last night, my sister brought home a dvd of supersize me. two minutes into the dvd, my kuya handed me the phone and said "order ka ng pizza. ang sarap bigla kumain." good thing that we already had dinner so we didn't binge on pizza anymore, especially since we had a first-hand look at how a McDiet can kill you.

i guess we were all so full from dinner that we all fell asleep halfway into the movie. i woke up a bit after midnight to my kuya's loud snoring and to my sister's foot on my stomach cutting off my oxygen. i didn't get up right away, i just wanted to lie there and enjoy the fact that i was at home vegetating with my two favorite people in the world.

it was such a kodak moment -- my brother lying flat on his back on the bed snoring like a tractor, my sister sprawled on the lazy boy with her leg lying across my stomach, and me lying on my side with drool puddling on my pillow. priceless.

change my hair, change my luck

cut my hair yesterday. away with the faux cameron-diaz-in-charlie's-angels flippable hair and back to my no-nonsense vaguely gay-man hair.

my peanut butter streaks have almost disappeared (thank God, getting peanut butter streaks in my hair was not one of my smarter ideas) and more of my white hair/ skunk streaks have emerged.

maybe this new hair will make things better. lord knows i've tried everything to improve my life

from prozac
to Big Macs
to pedicures
to kick boxing
to coupland

maybe changing my hair will do the trick this time.

God in my lipgloss

conversation in the car with my sister on the way to my dad's surprise birthday party.

ninin: oo! remember, God in all things.

God in my lipgloss.

God in my Prozac.
