Top 15. Had to include the extra five so they wouldn’t all be sad songs Hahaha was surprised to see the line-up, too. I guess there’s no denying that I’m almost always geared towards a particular genre. Hahaha! Also, old songs are old so no judgment! :))
I usually don’t blog about my internship day-to-day, but I think today merits a little attention :) I can’t quite put to words how much I enjoy working for PR, but I could take a shot at explaining why today I’m extra-pleased, Hehe. Got dragged to join the winners of the Haagen-Dazs Secret Sensations promo in The Fort— it was a meet & greet + football session with Phil Younghusband, one of Haagen-Dazs’ brand ambassadors (the other one being Georgina Wilson). The best part? Free ice cream! (#)

Introducing the newest offerings of Haagen Dazs: Secret Sensations. It comes in two flavors, crème brûlée and chocolate fondant— and the secret sensation inside every scoop is the caramel/chocolate syrup, which keeps its viscous liquid form unlike most syrups in other ice creams.
So anyway, of course we weren’t there just for the ice cream but for the winners to meet Phil as well. He was really accommodating and had unbelievably nice, perfectly-aligned teeth… Hahaha. But, yun nga, he really is poster-boy material, obviously. We got to chat with him for a bit and everything went really well from there. Of course I couldn’t leave without this (even though I wasn’t a fan, I sort of freaked out when he and I made beso goodbye Hahahaha):

I look so stressed so I had to Polarize it (again). Overall, ‘twas a good day. <3

Charles Bukowski (via cineamart)
Bukowski forever and ever!

Beating pulse: check! ☺ Still alive and kicking after a week or so of not updating. I’ve been alternating light and heavy boots since May started because of reasons mostly centered on a certain feeling of blandness infiltrating my supposed favorite month of the year— but I figured I have to stop putting labels on months from now on, Haha! But if it matters, and for me it does (LOL), first week went really good! I’m loving every bit of my internship plus I’ve been spending quality time with old and new people. We’ve also made progress in terms of OrComSoc duties so May’s bound to be a busy month for us. As they all say here on Tumblr, ‘action is distraction’! ☺
Aside from after-‘work’ dinners, also included in the highlights of last week were having watched American Pie: The Reunion last Thursday and attending the Shang Blockbuster City fashion show today. American Pie was absolutely funny; definitely a breather from most of the films I’ve been watching recently. Worth seeing in the cinema, swear! Hahaha!
Anyway, in Shang-fashion-show news, here’s the obligatory photo of us interns from the event. Thanks to Ms. Patti for this! Had father-daughter bonding time afterwards so it really was a Saturday well-spent. ☺ ‘til my next update, Haha!

UP Manila :)
