The happy tag – Days 5, 6 and 7

I missed 3 days of this happy tag thingy! What happened was, on the evening of Valentine’s Day, I drank enough red wine at a party and was almost tipsy. By the time we got home and I faced the laptop, my head was aching and my eyes were starting to get droopy. Needless to say, I wasn’t in the best physical and mental states to compose a blog entry. I still, however, wandered around cyberspace and was able to plurk something and play around Facebook for a little while. But the mental capacity it takes to post a blog were apparently too much for my red wine flooded brain. Whatever, Micay.

And yesterday, no happy thingy post again because I was too disturbed from the sudden accidental abduction of Pangga, the teddy bear. This sounds so overly dramatic and trust me, I must have thought the same thing had not the incident actually happened to me yesterday. I’ll explain in a separate blog entry about this. Bottom line, yesterday was happy tag post fail again.

So today I’m finally posting not only today’s happy thingy but the backlogs as well.

Day 5 – February 14, 2009
My second Valentine’s Day of the year. Heh The first one was the day before when it was the 14th in the Philippines. Tatay gave me a laptop cart, a Valentine card and some chocolates. Aww. The laptop cart is really cool. I’m using it now. It pretty much looks like that one in the picture. I assembled the thing myself (with Tatay’s help in installing some of the metal thingies I have no idea about!). It’s really convenient and I no longer have to worry about where I can comfortably position myself with the laptop around the house. My father’s Valentine gifts made me happy. So there, Day 5.

Day 6 – February 15, 2009
I got a new haircut! The finished look is OK, I think. I’m not really totally in love with it, but I kinda like it. I decided to go for the layered look again and had intended to have about half an inch off. But the hairstylist, who by the way was also a Pinoy, told me that I have lots of split ends and my hair won’t lengthen that much if it has split ends. She asked if she could remove them and I said sure, even though it would take more than half an inch off my hair to do so. It’s my first time ever to have enough split ends that they would be that visible. I guess they’re from those two rebondings I made my naturally wavy hair undergo before. Well, enough of the hair talk crap. I’m just happy to have a change from a long, flat, boring hairstyle.

Day 7 – February 16, 2009
As for today, I found out that I can get Pangga, the teddy bear back. Yey! He is now somewhere around 2 hours away from here, safe and home bound. I know I totally make no sense talking about Pangga, the teddy bear. I’ll post a story soon, I promise.

Sorry if I sound so plain and down-ish today. It has been raining all day and it’s cold, wet and gloomy. Just enough to dampen my mood. I’m sure it’ll be a lot better next time.
