in otha words

I have always been attracted to deep set eyes, "payat" legs, nice toes, moles in the face, and "kalbos".

I have always wanted a bf who likes to go out on friday nights, someone who could make me laugh, someone who is patient, someone i could be silly with,someone who would appreciate my cooking, someone who wouldn't mind taking the backseat for me.

I have always hoped to be in a relationship wherein there's trust, honesty, respect, appreciation and love.

i never thought i could have that kind of man and that kind of relationship with one person. It does exists. and now, i have all that i ever wannted.

I better stop now, or else i might sound like im selling my bf...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOG!!!! Hope you'll be able to read this on time....
You know how much i wanted to be there...hope you'll have a blast!

take care! and i miss you...so much!

see you soon!

P.S. I forgot that i also want someone who will rub my back, when i've drunk too much tequila!!!hehehe

NOYPI

I think its a shame when a Filipino doesn't even know how to speak our language.

My mom has this friend, who migrated here in the US when her son was, i think, 8 or 9. They went home last year, and the boy, now in college doesn't know and understand any single tagalog word!!!

And recently, I met this family, and they have a 18 year old son who comes to Manila for vacation every now and then, and he also doesnt speak our language. I know he was born and raised here, but come on, you're still a Filipino!

I don't understand why these people don't speak to their sons in their native language. Kahit konti.

I have nothing agaisnt English, I write with that language, but i don't think we should forget about what we were born with.

I think it will not make you a less of a person when you know Tagalog even if you grew up someplace else. Rather, its an advantage. You instantly know two languages.

I also think its a disgrace when people in Manila, talk in English and feel superior. I also don't like people who come here in States, for a vacation, and suddenly when they come back, they immediately take on the accent. OH PLEASE!

I remember having this conversation with my friend Jen, we were talking about this singer who has been living in Manila for years and has been making a living there and he still doesn't know how to speak tagalog! As Jen says " Natatangahan nga ako sa kanya eh, ang tagal na niya dito hanggang ngayon hindi pa rin siya marunong magtagalog."

missing home

i arrived here july 2 at 730 pm, and the sun was still up. my flight was full...full of pinoys. the wheather was good, and i got out of the airport by 930.

my body clock's changing and i'm still not used to the time here and that the sunset here is at 9pm.
i'm missing hoem so much, and i forgot to activate the roaming services of my phone.

anyways, as you could read its as lousy as it could get. will write soon when i get enough sleep!

take care evryone! :)

changes

i cannot believe that i'm leaving tommorow. i haven't packed and i cannot say i'm ready. it's been an emotional circus for me this week, and i feel there are still more dramas ahead.

i was surprised that SKYCABLE changed their channel listings. ang layo na ng STAR WORLD and HBO. ETC din. Channel 48 na Star World. well, im just glad i won't be adjusting to that till i get back.

i also noticed changes in Friendster ha. when you look at other people's profiles. I'm sorrounded by changes. i hope its all good.

this might be the last entry i'll be writing before i leave. so, goodluck to me. and take crae everyone!

JENICHOY: if you get to read this before my text, keep me posted! i'll miss you!
JOG: i'll see you soon!
BITCH: thanks for texting, i will still read your blog! tc!

and to everyone who wishes me well, and wishes for my safe arrival at SFO... THANKS!!!!

Politically incorrect

I was surprised and pleased that President Arroyo finally broke her silence. I have faith in her that she was honest and sincerely asking for the understanding and forgiveness of the people. Although in her speech, what I was looking for was her assurance that there was no manipulation or incorrect results of the May 2004 elections. She also did not mention who exactly was the COMELEC Official she was talking to.

This will not be the end but only the beginning of a new issue. Because of her admission, everybody knows that there is indeed a TAPE, that is her voice, and she was indeed talking to a COMELEC Official. I think that due to her actions she broke a law, and should face the consequences. Senator Pimentel says she should resign and step down, while Senator Drilon thinks that for the President to admit it and apologize to the public is already a big thing. I should say, it was indeed a humble act for her to apologize and admit it to the public that she was wrong, I also feel she was sincere, but of course being the President isn’t an excuse; it isn’t a privilege to be absolved. It only makes her more responsible, because the people who voted for her expect an honest leader. Kaya nga ikaw ang Presidente. Her lack of judgment only made her less credible and flaws like this couldn’t just be forgotten and forgiven by public apology and admission.

I don’t know much about the legalities of the matter but I don’t think it is best to oust her, have a snap election or have another revolution. I think we have so much of that in our history. It only makes our economy weak, makes our country look weak. I cannot also think of any other person who could be our next President.

It makes me think that this is the second time the elected President has been subjected to dishonest governance. Is it our lack of judgment in voting a President? Or is it our morals that should be questioned?

The devil in me couldn’t help but wonder… Why did the President needed to call that COMELEC official personally? She could have just asked someone else to make that call since she’s the President, right? Just like President’s Estrada’s alleged Jeuteng payola, why didn’t he keep the money some place else?

too sweet for me

i don't really have a sweet tooth,compared to my dad and for some people that i know. but for some reasons i think i'm gonna have a sore throat because of eating too much chocolate. It started when my mom's friend gave us Meiji Macadamia Chocolates. Hay! super sarap! I finished 1 box in just one seating. Then today, when Jog dropped by, he gave me more chocolates!

i was checking on my calendar, and damn! I'm leaving next next saturday! yup. it's final, although i was able to have an extension of just a few weeks, i just can't believe that next next saturday, I will not sleep on my bed, not be able to talk to jog before going to sleep and gossip around with my roomate. time flies.

i'm so attached to all that i have here.i just hope i won't get home sick as soon as i arrive there. i hope there would be no airport dramas and i hope everything that i have planned to do before i leave will push through without hassles.

I had my "last Wai Ying" (until December) last saturday with my family. I don't think i will be able to taste such good chinese food anywhere else. I will miss Hakaw and their siomai.

Hay naku! FOOD nanaman!!!

will write before i leave.

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY

It’s so hard to write about those close to your heart, so I’ll just make this simple and short.

22 years ago, this man’s life changed. He became a young father at 18.

Today, he is the father of 3 children. And for those 3, he is their Handyman and their favorite person to make fun of. And he’s ok with that.

A lot say I look a lot like him. My mom says we have a lot of things in common, in terms of our attitude. There are times that I resent that, but when I think about it is true.

I remember him saying, fathers should not be troubled about their daughters decision with the men they will be with…cause what always happen is that daughters look for men who are like their dads.

I think so too, but if I am so like my dad, I shouldn’t be looking for another me. Rather, I should look for someone like my mom with whom my papa has found a great companion.

So, even if there are times that he’s not my favorite person in the world. HAPPY FATHER’S DAY to my papa, who will always be the first man I have loved.

Buding, Dondi, Mama, and I LOVES YOU!!!!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY also to:

Lolo Tony
Lolo Pinong
Tito Mike
Tito Jojo
Tito Willy
Kuya Derek
Tito Leonard
Tito Arnel
Tito Joseph
Tito Rommel
Tito Roy
Niño
Allen
Jeff

And to all the fathers who will be able to read this.

Movie Lines

I love movie lines. I think everyone comes to that point where your whole life becomes a movie line. Or sometimes you live by it, or you suddenly try to find something or someone in your life that you could connect to a movie line. It becomes a part of our lives and beliefs. It can either make or break you.

During Jerry Maguire’s peak, every man was saying “You complete me”. It all made us all awww, but the truth is, before we all go into a relationship, we should be as “complete” as we could be. I liked that line, but then I realized having someone “complete” you doesn’t really work.

There was the Julia Roberts line in My Bestfriend’s Wedding I held onto for a year. There was also the poem in 10 things I hate about you, that I spent hours researching on the internet. And just like the Jerry Maguire line, I outgrew the line, or life has just thought me that this is real life and I’m not a movie star.

Troy Dyer of Reality Bites made me like bad looking boys with wits. Ethan Hawke’s character gave a justification to that generation. I have a lot of favorite lines in that movie, specially when Winona Ryder asked her to define irony, and Troy immediately answered.

There are hundreds of movie lines we all loved, shared, and related to. And I think that’s why we still love romantic movies even if we know it has the same endings. Movie lines make us feel good and give us even just a tiny chance that it could happen to anyone.

Any movie, whether good or bad will always be remembered by striking and easy-to-relate-to movie lines that we all love.

P.S.

I would definitely recommend “Nasaan ka man”. The movie was a great break from all the usual Tagalog Romantic Movies yearly produced. Diether Ocampo’s performance cannot be ignored. I think this is the first time I’ve seen him this good.

"let's talk about sex"

I have done nothing but insignificant things this past week and i'm not complaining. i think i'm just enjoying the time i have left before leaving. My mom managed to extend my stay and I'm not leaving this month.yey! but still its not long enough till jog's bday.

Speaking of Bdays, my newest inaanak was born last Tuesday. Nynna Venice ( i hope i'm right), first born of my good friend Vanessa. and I don't think I will be here in her Christening, unless they'll do it on December.

Jog and I watched a lot like love last tuesday, and I must say Ashton is wow! i specially like the part when he sang "i'll be there for you, these 5 words i say to you" with the electric guitar and all. hay! It reminded me of the Sassy Girls' definition of fate...Fate is making a bridge of chance for your love. Thanks Jeni for recommending the movie. So if you havent seen it, you better do. the movie is good. For me it was a good movie and spending time with the boyfriend.

Last night, Porli and I watched Mr. & Mrs. Smith. Porli and I couldn't help but adore and say "GWAPO" for every scene of Mr. Pitt! hehehe And ngayon ko lang napansin Angelina's lips...

so there, Ive done nothing but Bum around.

moving forward?

Why does it seem that everytime i tell close friends that I am going some place this month they are all "Whoa! Good for you!"

And these past few days that I've been catching up with friends, trying to make up for the lost time, and trying to spend the time i have left, they all seem to be happy and they say it's great news.

It is. really. but first everyone should know that its not for vacation but for a family emergency's sake. it seems like, everyone thinks that it would be fun fun fun! lalalala! opportunity! i mean, Im going there to help my Tita. Although, yah, its an opportunity to travel, travel alone and be in the place i love since the first time i saw it. but hey its not all wows and ahhs!

a friend was telling me, that i could get a job, and apply for a working visa maybe stay there for good and im like, wait! i am not going there for employment.

i know, it's an opportunity and who knows, but my main purpose and only goal is to help my dear tita, who has been good to me and my family. yes, maybe if an opportunity rises, well, why not? i know a lot of people who'd do anything to be given a chance to work there. but if it will defeat my purpose, i wouldn't think twice in dropping it.

and has anyone thought of the family i'll be leaving here?

i know, this is not the country some of us would choose to be part of right now with all the crises were in. but i don't think leaving the country is the solution. i don't think that moving forward means moving forward to a different place, a different country.

i mean, it's not so bad. i may sound so patriotic but what's so bad about that?

and i remember the paper i submitted to my teacher in ENGCOM1, about the SONA of former President Estrada, he wrote a note saying..."What have you done lately?"
because in my paper i wrote that although, He had so many plans undone, he should not be solely blamed for our country's situation.

so, i might be leaving Manila for a while, but I am definitely coming back to my home..

Im still alive

I totally forgot! Its Kikaye’s 1^st birthday this month!!!! Its been a year of blah blah and fun of making myself heard or should I say read. thanks for all those who take their time to drop by and catch up with me.

There’s not much going on that is worth writing, so I have been absent in my own sanctuary.

In the past two weeks, there was a chance or a thought I should say of employment. But I was rejected having not being able to answer what the interviewer wanted to hear. Or should I say what she wanted to get or maybe she didn’t hear what she always does.

At the same time, the plans of me going to help a relative became clearer and sooner.

I think what had happened was just meant to be.

I am looking forward on this trip, being able to help and the thought of traveling alone for the first time is a good thing but I couldn’t help but think of all the things, places and specially people that I am going to miss.

I will not be able to cook dinner anymore for my family every night. I might miss the chance of helping my sister plan for her debut, although I already thought of just emailing and chatting with her to make the necessary arrangements. Princess might not remember me anymore when I get back 6 months later. Soap operas every night after dinner and during dinner.

I will miss birthdays of friends: Nina, Gian, Anne, Mira and of course Jog’s. It could have been his second birthday together but as fate would have it, we have to celebrate it miles apart.

I am going to miss everything about our house, and my bumming around. Its just some of the things that I’m going to miss.

Yesterday, Jog took me to Roxas Boulevard. We ate siomai, squid balls, balut, dirty ice cream, fries and Mc Float. Just one of the most creative dates Jog has taken me to, he also wrote me a poem. It was funny, mayabang but heartfelt. It was the assurance I needed.

I am blessed with a loving family, reliable and trustworthy friends, and a boyfriend who is caring, funny, honest, mushy at times and crazy. I always say this, but I am the luckiest girl. I may sound arrogant but I guess I’m just grateful.

PJP II

I recieved this from email...

Friends,

In less than 24 hours more than 2,000 people from all over the world have
signed the petition to proclaim that Pope John Paul II should be known
henceforth and forever as John Paul the Great. Not bad. But we need many
more.

We need a million names. So, it will take more than the faithful readers
of the Friday Fax to make this happen.

Each of you who read this message must send this to all of your family and
friends. And each of them must send it to their family and friends.

If you run an email report, send this out to your readers. If you have a
radio show, mention this on air. We can generate a million signatures and
these millions names will make a global splash.

Direct your family, friends, colleagues, strangers to PJPthegreat
and have them sign the petition. Then have them send their own alert to
their family and friends to get them to sign.

Do it now, friends.

Best regards,

Austin Ruse

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

During sunday school, a small boy was told that its God who makes bad people good. "I know" said the little boy. "But mothers help a lot, too." - that's from Lucy Torres' column today.

To my Lola Tess and Lola Letty, thank you for giving us (Alexis, Dondi and I) loving parents.
To my Mom, who has always been the kindest, most loving, and cool Mom I've known.
To my Lola Angeling, for raising our super kulit Lolo Tony.
To my Tita Leng, for giving us Nathan.
To Tita Baby, for raising 5 kids and her grandchildren.
To Wena, for giving the cuties Sir, Lady and Princess.

To my friends mom's, if not for them i may not have the most dependable and honest friends.
Tita Lai, Tita Sally and Tita Ellen.

For my my friends
Cheese, Pam, Lei, Hannah and Vanessa, the new generation of mothers, for giving me inaanaks, Caley, Aiken, Kalel and Nynna.


HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!

It is indeed the toughest job, but all of you have been good at it!

So sue me!

I hate being clingy.
I hate being needy, whiney, and overly sensitive.
And that’s what I’m just beginning to be.
And I just hate it.
I cannot believe I’ve said HATE again.
And if I continue being like this, I might end up like what a lot people hate.
And if don’t get back to my old self A.S.A.P, I would be single all over again. (the bf’s kinda losing his patience on me, although he has not said yet, I just know, women intuition)

And just when I’m working on it, PLDT Vibe is making me back to the bwiset mode. Don’t you just love it? I don’t think getting DSL would be the solution, cause I know a lot of DSL subscribers who are not giddy about the service. So if ever, this blog reaches to anyone in PLDT, I hope I’ve sent the message across! FIX IT!!!!

I’m still jobless, and everyday becomes a routine of boredom and Bum-ness, if there is a word.

And that may be just the reason why I’m all this grumpy. The only thing I’ve accomplished this far, is baking cookies and making leche flan. Which was all a success by the way.

Another thing that makes me cranky is the weather. I don’t need exclamation points for that, don’t I? And I don’t have to tell you it’s HOT. Unless you’re in an air-conditioned office or the luxury of having one at home, well you may not be able to relate to that.

And just when I’ve gathered all my thoughts, this PC would hang. Of course! That would be the icing on my cake.

So far, as you could see, this week’s not been good for me. Except for Monday when we had our CSI Miami marathon and Yellow Cab pizza. That was a good day.

So there, I just want to spread the giddiness and good fortune I’ve been having.

la kwenta

Mosquitos love me. and as of 10:43 am, i have a total of 8 mosquito bites!!!!!!!! yikes!!!

but my heart sings...

like that y'all!

ink blots

i read my sunday newspaper, only to be inspired and realizing what really made me not want to write again. you see, ive been writing since Formal Theme's were required at school for English class. all i wanted to do was to write, compose essays, jot down random thoughts, doodle,thats all i do---except for poetry.i can't do poetry. writing was the only thing i knew i was good at to say the least.

until two years ago, i stopped writing and never had the apppetite to do so. i met this really great writer. when i read his compostions, i knew i couldn't be as good as him. instead of being inspired, i was discouraged.

i just wanted to write. i didn't want to be edited. i know i have great thoughts to share and be criticized for.

But there's fate and a little help from someone who believed in me.

that someone, although not really knowing my passion to write helped me be back on my pen and paper. i remember writing continuously one night, with a blank mind and words just kept my hand writing it all out. that's when i knew i got it back.

he didn't know anything. there was nothing special that he did,he just believed in me and in everything that i did.

and with all that drama, comes my blog and 10+ notebooks, filled with my thoughts and my heart.


forgiveness

i think i haven't. and i'm giving myself time, to get all the bitterness and pain out. i need time, this has been happening to me 4 times in 22 years. something must be really wrong with me, or i'm just destined to meet these kind of people and make me learn the same lesson over and over again. it's like math!

my thoughts

Constantine should have not been voted out of the American Idol. It's a shame!
Alright! i fancy him, but hey he has talent and he should have been a part of the final 3. kung si Jasmine Trias nga eh!! arrgh!

anyway, ive finished Gossip Girl and Bergdorf Blondes. Berdorf, was hilarious. Better than Candace Bushnell's Four Blondes. Although i kinda predicted the love story part, but still it was funny and fast paced. I couldn't put that book down.

Gossip Girl was ok. I could have appreciated it more if i read that when i was in Highschool though...

i'm officially a B-U-M.

and my daily routine is as boring as it could get. i wake up, eat, read/watch or sleep. cook dinner, watch, internet or sleep.

*sigh*

please help!

American Idol

Just watched the eliminations, and I cannot believe that America voted Anwar off the competition. He may not have the charms of Constantine, but definitely he should not have been the one eliminated tonight.

Oh, well. That’s life.

To work or not to work

I’ve been contemplating on working or have a little more vacation before working. Really, I want to work. But I got a lot of unsolicited advice that I should take a little time off before working. It makes sense, since working may mean no sem breaks and summer breaks. But I’m also really excited to work and, ok, I admit that earning my own money is the real motivation here. I know this should not be the reason why I want to work, and I know I might regret or get sawa agad. But hey! I can’t help but think that I will be able to afford some of my luho.

And there is one field I want and would really love to pursue. I’m just chicken to submit my resume and sample works. I may not be good enough kasi… and this is something I’ve been unconsciously into for years now. And because I love this so much, I know that if they reject me, I may not want to continue doing this, and I’d be scarred for life.

So there, I might just be contented keeping this blog and be unedited for all I care!

Not much done this week. Much more today! Might try to clean up my desk later after cooking dinner.

Ciao!

My Sassy Girl

Its funny how I’ve come to know this film. It was through Don, my boyfriend’s friend who knew about this movie. Don had a DVD copy, the three of them, Bobot, Jog and Don watched it one lazy afternoon. And their definition of fate changed.

As my boyfriend says it “hinawakan ako ng movie na yan”. Jog couldn’t stop talking about it, and he kept on saying I’ll borrow the CD para mapanood mo. So I told myself, it must be really good. And one time on the phone, I heard Bobot trying hard to speak Korean.

Last Night, I was able to watch it. Finally. It’s a Korean movie based on the stories written by Kim Sik Ho on the internet. And as always, I cried. The movie was simple, it was moving and if you’re in a good relationship it will make you thank the heavens you are in that relationship.

For the hopeless romantics, and those who just simply love to watch movies, this movie will definitely be in your Favorite Movies List.

I wrote my bf a new testimonial, all because of this movie. I was inspired and I know those who have watched it also has been moved by this beautiful love story.

I’d like to close this entry by quoting the old man in the movie who gave me, Jog, Bobot and Don a new definition of fate…

“Fate is making a bridge of chance for your love”

good day

Aside from having a good sleep after a good movie, it was a good day.

I went to school to return my toga, and I went home with two good books with for the price I still cannot believe.

I’ve been wanting to buy Bergdorf Blondes, I knew reading this will lift up my spirits. P339 was a pretty ok price for the book, I had E-purse worth P120 from Laking National so I said, Why not?

Then the cashier said I only need to add P140, I couldn’t be any happier. Books are on sale pala in NATIONAL BOOKSTORE!!!!! 20% off! On all imported books!! I believe Angels and Demons are on Sale, so as Five People you meet in heaven, Da Vinci Code and lotsa more. I think Paolo Coelho too. So for all yah bookworms, head to National its only until May 1.

P226 na lang ang Bergdorf! I also bought Gossip Girl for P195. That’s why it’s a good day!

FINAL FOUR

ME AND MY JOWA

JUST BEFORE MARCHING

ANECDOTE

One lazy hot afternoon my boyfriend and I spent almost three hours on the phone like a high school couple. It’s surprising that even if we talk on a daily basis, we still have so much to talk about. This one that I’m going to share with you still make me laugh when I think about it.

We were talking about these girls that they’ve met and usually hangs out with them in Alabang. So I was teasing him which one was his crush. (names are changed)

JOG: dun nakilala ni Bobot si Denice.

KAYE : ah, dun ba ?!

JOG: oo, at saka yung isa si Maureen na mejo date din ni Anton

KAYE: ah, yung crush mo

JOG: HELLOOO? Siya ang may crush sa akin!

Hahaha. It may not be so funny to you, but if you just heard how my boyfriend

Said hello like a girl, it is damn funny for me!

Enjoy your shoes

I love shoes. Who girl doesn’t? I especially love tsinelas. And its just recently that I’ve realized that on every birthday or so, if there’s something I ask for its for shoes.

On my first year in college I begged my mom to buy me Birkenstocks, the white and blue one. Then on my 18^th birthday, I couldn’t resist to ask for these oh-so-comfy Bass thongs. Then there was the Nike Presto craze, I had searched and searched for the perfect one. Just before my birthday, I got the black leather ones and a surprise human traffic encounter (that’s another story). Then Last year it was Happy Feet, and this year it has got to be Haviannas. I know the craze started last year, but I was contemplating on how much it cost! And my metro sexual boyfriend who has been sssshhhing the idea (of buying so expensive rubber slippers), bought us the cheaper, also comfortable, locally made BEACHWALK as an alternative. I love it, and its black. It’s great on torn jeans and stuff but I knew my heart could not rest without having my pair of Haviannas.

Shoe conquest

And so, on a spontaneous afternoon, with my boyfriend and our friend Don, I hoped Rustan’s U still has a size 6, baby blue (the color I was planning to have, I have enough pink) Haviannas. As I saw the little stall they have for Haviannas and a note that said they do not accept reservations due to the high demand of the made in Brazil slippers, I knew this would not be a glorious I-finally-have-it moment. Not to mention the crowd of women, hoping and fighting for their own pair. It took me tons of trying all the color and style and we went back to Rustan’s twice before I made the decision of my life.

First problem: after all the trying and the struggle to have the chance to try that pair that another woman holds, when I decided on which pair I liked, they did not have size 7-8, which I thought was a better fit than the size 5-6. And when I almost wanted this pair, the color, the design, and the size, it was their last pair. Which I just found out, men don’t get. Well, jog and don we’re really good shopping partners, but they we’re of course, MEN. So they couldn’t understand that the LAST PAIR means, it was the pair everybody had tried on and are usually some sorta worn out and unclean. A pair nobody would want and a pair nobody would spend their money on. So, when I told them I liked this pair, and I’m not getting it because it’s the last pair, both hollered at me saying “ANO NAMAN NGAYON?” which made me laughed and realized why some men don’t have nice pair of shoes. But Don said, the rubber shoes he was wearing was a former “last pair” and it turns out to be ok. So, yah they talked me out of it.

The runners up

Jog wanted me to have the blue and orange Hawaiian printed pair, he said it was really summer looking (I know, my boyfriend’s gay) but I thought and Don thought it’s too girly, and just for once I wanted not to be so girly. Don also thought I’m nuts and those other women also for spending almost a thousand on a pair of “tsinelas”. He wished his girlfriend Adine wouldn’t find out about it and wouldn’t think of buying.

I also tried on the baby blue pair I planned to buy. But it was their last pair.

Then there was this two toned blue and purple pair, that I thought was cool and so did Don.

I almost didn’t have that pair, when the lady said it was their last pair, but I asked my boyfriend to ooze that lady his charm and ask if they still have another pair since mine was the display. The lady, who was not so nice to me, said she’d try and look. And after a few minute she got the pair for me.

I went out of U feeling happy and accomplished. The two we’re teasing me like high school boys and my boyfriend made it more perfect when he gave me a kiss on the cheek.
