Thursday...
ok..so its thursday again..was happy coz its the end of the weekdays...half day at work.i was so excited when i saw the clock stricked one.yohoo!time to go to my appointment at a beauty parlor to have my hair trimmed.but unfortunately,my table was still a mess..airline reservation papers there..tickets here..grrr...my computer was still on and i found myself staying for 30 mins more at work..my boss still giving me visas to scan and schedules to issue PTA  and tickets..so i called my driver and asked him to come back for me at 1:30pm..so 1:30 came and off i went. sadly, my driver didnt came at exactly 1:30pm. i waited for him till he got me at 1:45.. i was crying (really, i cry when things aren't going the way i planned) coz my mom called me and said that she'll go home and cannot wait for me at the parlor..bummer..so, i arrived at the parlor one hour late..lucky me,the person who has a schedule at 2pm didnt come early, so i had my hair cut without any delay..after 10mins, i was done and i called my father to pick me up. went home, took my lunch and took a rest..

my mood changed when we went to see the Summer Festival happenings here in Doha. it's been a month since this festival started and its just now that we had the time to see it.first, we went to see the Bashara Village at the Qatar Exhibition Centre. i was thinking that booths will be there displaying different cultures and heritage of the country.but instead, different rides and game booths welcomed us. hmmm..well, we're there so why not enjoy it a little.we played one game wherein we won a prize..haha! it was a picachu alarm clock..hahaha! so much for luck!(our tokens cost us 30 riyals and we just a won an alarm clock) so after going around the centre, we headed at the nearby mall-City Centre..there were shows there, performed by i think Europeans..they we're doing acrobats and clowning.it was fun!really enjoyed that. then off we went to Shoemart, haha.. i bought one pair of black sandals..kaltas na naman sa pera ko..hehehe..

at around 7:15,we headed outside the mall to go to my much awaited show- THE HOLIDAY ON ICE!!! the show was performed inside a big tent..and inside there's a man-made much like an ice-pond where the performers will showcase their talents.it was really beautiful!!! colorful costumes, funky music, perfect lighting effects and of course, wonderful performers. too bad, cameras were not allowed so i was not able to take pics..awwww...really sad..but the show was terrific! performers were of European nationals. sulit ang 25riyals entrance fee..it was really great..in the audience, i saw one guy i knew..he used to sell us sandwiches..he's of new zealand nationality and we used to exchange conversations whenever he dropped by at our office to sell his sandwiches..too bad he didnt see me..or maybe he saw me but didnt recognize me..

after, we filled our stomachs with chicken fried rice and broasted chicken at a nearby diner then decided to go home..

it was a terrific thursday..in fairness..

here's some pics of the day..


inside the Bashara Village..so much of a village huh...


the tickets that costs us 30riyals in total for the tokens..which only gave to this..see below pic

My Color
"There's nothing saccharine about you — your sweetness is one hundred percent natural! A gentle, thoughtful romantic like you must be paired with a color that's soft and warm — but still has a subtle sophisticated sheen. That's why Pink Chiffon is the perfect color for you! You're probably known for making the most of every situation and trying to see the best in people. But while you may be cheerful and innocent at times, you're nobody's fool. You may see the world through rose-colored glasses, but you can still see, after all.While you make wise insights time after time, it's probably your good nature and perpetual optimism that are what you're known for and what make you a joy to be around. Even those who sometimes make fun of your Pollyanna-like proclamations will turn to you when they need a friend and some cheering up. So keep pink, Chiffon. With you around, the world's a better place!"

alright, that's what it says when i took the test for whats my signature color..heheh..and i like the result! PINK! my fave color..hmmm..some of those statements are true some are not.like im gentle and thoughtful romantic..how true!hahah! im just happy with the result,that's all..check out my sidebar to see my color.. :0)

at the entrance of Doha Golf Club..even though the heat is unbearable, i tried to take some good pics for my remembrance..


inside the restaurant (El Midetterano).i like their motif..pink and white..so feminine and fresh


the food!! i just love the food!! what's in it?veal,with mushroom,mozarella,rice and i forgot what that white sauce is called...sounds really fattening..tsk tsk tsk..but its great!


and me!sitting on a buggy?!! haha! i dont what its called..i cant sit properly kasi nahihiya ako sa mga pinoys..they're looking kasi..hehehe...


inside the club..im beside the dallah..one of the symbolic items in qatar


a view of the golf course..my dad said that it takes millions of riyals to maintain this..


my treat ended at 4..but we stopped over at city center to buy me a gift! got a new watch!nice...

 hey guys..i just want you to check out my lovable pets..they are so adorable!
 
this is GEORGINA..she's been in the family for more than 10 years now..i will really cry if she'll die..sje's very trained..unlike the rest of his pet companions..she's very quiet..never a "meow" can be heard from her.. we always wonder why..

 
the favorite among the pets. CHICKY! she came here when she was still a baby..and now look at her! she's a full grown mother..see her beside her baby who looks like her..she's the one on the left..


the thorn among the roses!until chickytoo came in. ZAWAF is also one of the babies of chicky..he's the only guy among them..hehehe..lucky him, he's surrounded by girls!one trick he knows, he can open the door all by himself! and we didnt even trained him for that.talk about a gifted cat! hahaha!

 
WACKY is not here with us now..we have to let her go coz of her hair..it keeps on falling..maybe because she's already old..my nanay said we have to get rid of her baka kasi magkaron pa kami ng sakit due to her hair..i really miss her! but luckily, she was picked up some Filipinos who live just near my best friend's house, that's why i can see her now and then! nice!

 
CHICKYTOO named after her mother CHICKY..hehe..we have to put the word "too" right after coz both of them look alike.they have the same eyes,same hair color..i tell you, this cat is very playful..and her favorite place?? my bed..aaawww...when i go home after work, i would always see himl lying on my bed..that's why maybe my allergy wont go away because of cat hairs!!hehehe..see at this pic..he looks like a figurine..

 
 
i just adore these pets! they're one of the family now and it would be really sad if we someday we have to part ways..anyway,they really rock!

He Has Paid the Price..
i was just so touched by the sermon our pastor gave at our last night friday service. she just told a simple story on how one student has to do 10 push ups for every donut given to his classmates.this just illustrates that Jesus has paid the price for our gift- and that is to have an eternal life. all we have to do is to accept it. i was crying during the closing prayer coz i was reminded again of Jesus' love for us all. i'll be forever grateful for everything he has done..Amen..

also, last night, some of my friends had their night swimming..too bad i cant come for some reason..ehehe..

anyway..

what's happening with blogger? i cant see the changes i've made. it always comes back to the old settings, especially at the template..cant enjoy blogging this time..why?does anyone know????
