Dreaming of Greens and Pinks
I’m taking a break from all the animé-related stuff for a while. This very much needed breather is brought to us by my newly purchased Nancy Drew books. Close friends are well aware that I’m a huge fan of the teenage detective while I was growing up (not that I’m insinuating that I’ve stopped growing up, mind you), and needless to say, I’m very happy with the addition to my precious collection. The online list of books I have, however, is yet to be updated; I’ve sold some of the paperbacks I was ready to part with. Anyway, what I’m trying to say is that the Yu Yu Hakusho addiction has been put on hold…until further notice.
My dad has decided to have some house glitches fixed these past few days. Took him long enough. But it doesn’t matter. The toilet’s flush is now working, and I’m a very happy waste-excreter again. I no longer confuse my facial wash to be a toothpaste when brushing my teeth because the tiny sink in the bathroom has been restored. The kitchen’s worn look is now gone, replaced by sparkling white tiled walls that look more glamorous than my fanciest wardrobe (in short, it doesn’t look that creepy and dirty anymore).
Dad’s also been thinking of actually going through the age-old plan of adding a new bedroom so my mom would stop bunking over at my room (it’s the way things are since the ‘rents had a falling out years ago). My huge pull-out bed is destined to be “mutated” soon, poor bed (since I keep complaining that it’s too big and takes up much precious space of my little room). I don’t know what’s to become of my hanging room-wide bookshelf because it seems that my dad thinks that the new room should be mine (yeah, he’s still busy making up for his…*ahem*…whatever). It’s also supposed to make the house a little cleaner…like that would work. We have too many furniture in the house to last us a lifetime. And dad’s already planning to buy another TV for the room. A TV! My mom and I sometimes joke to him that he should install a small TV inside the bathroom, and he’s seriously considering it! Holy crap, what is it with TVs that he fancies?!
*heaves*
Uh-huh. Okay. I’m fine now. *sighs*
The drawback in the whole experience is that the man who works to repair and reconstruct the house, Kuya Buboy, is here every single day. The consequence of this isn’t at all funny. I mean, really, it’s no laughing matter that he’s become involved in my dreams. Sometimes when I see him in the house, I’d wonder if I was dreaming or not. Not that the dreams are erotic in nature, but still…. 
I’m even beginning to build the room in my mind. I’m not much of a designer (digital and otherwise), but I see my room with apple green walls and light pink closet. It’s beginning to cloud my senses that at one time, I woke up screaming, “Holy shit! Pink!” Seriously, pink?! Although I admit that while I get sick of looking at pretty pink blogs (no offense meant, but there’s just too many of them proliferating the web for me to bear), I’ve grown fond of the color. And it’s not because Botan-chan’s eyes are a shade of pink and violet (depending on her mood) too, so, uh, yeah. 
My mom and I have also persuaded dad that the gate should be painted mint green. See, my mom’s favorite color has recently changed from violet to green. What brought about this change, I don’t really know, but at least we agree on something as major as the color of the gate (haha). My color preference is no more than profound than my mom’s; I just fantasize that my future car’s color is green. Don’t ask.
But I honestly don’t know where the pink came from.
So anyway, the huge change is expected to take place this summer. I hear we don’t even have to move out from the house while the new room and upstairs bathroom are being constructed, but I’m definitely not looking forward to the noise that comes with the change. I may have to take a little “vacation” to my grandma’s house in Marikina and be less of a sloth than I already am. That is, if I can stand being away from the “pleasures of life” available right here in the Cruz residence.
Before I go, I have a life-changing question. If you were to choose between the concert of Toto and Swing Out Sister, which one would you go to? Decisions, decisions.
Till the next update, people! It’s good to know I’m not the only one who’s been afflicted with the mental disease that comes with liking animés, harhar. 
Uhm, and maybe the “further notice” I mentioned earlier about the YYH addiction came sooner than expected. I just received notices that 3 of the stories I’m following have been updated with a new chapter. 
“Kuya Buboy” must be smoldering
hot!hot!hot! WTF.
I don’t understand why you abhor pink-laden blogs (!!!) I mean, I love pink as much as the next kinky person. Pink gets me high as a kite! (thanks to Aerosmith) Put the blame on my Hello Kitty loofa and Pink 5 figurine WTF!
Ok I can vomit now haha.
As for the “life-altering question”, my answer would be NEITHER. Hehehe. Ok just joshing around. I’d actually go for Swing Out Sister!
Anyhorse, I dig your new-ish template! You designed this yourself?
Kciao.
i miss your house! Tara inom lets!
I TOTALLY love the new layout, Shari!!
LOL, I know it’s been up for awhile, but this is the first entry you’ve written since putting this layout up. =P
Wow, your dad’s been doing a lot of things at home… That’s pretty awesome!
Woah, that’s crazy how that man can be in your dreams!
LOL about pink. Pink’s alright, to a certain extent. LOL.
Anyways, wow, good luck deciding on which concert to go to!
Toto or Swing Out Sister? Aw c’mon! Toto! It’s a no-brainer!
First thought: Holy Shit. Pretty Layout!!
It’s funny cause KxB was one of the first fanfics I got my hands on in grade 6. And I read a lot of it in hs cause my friend was a huge fan and a very good fanfic writer. Have to admit that a huge bulk of those fics were lemon.
Check out their old ml http://www.geocities.com/yyh_k_b/main.html
A lot of the content are still up.
(I’m really fanning the flames of your addiction, eh? lol)

and erm, I vote for Swing Out Sister
Paint your room either yellow or lavender. My current room is yellow. I want to change it to lavender.
Hope you’re having a grand easter. Tc.
Haha. Go for the pink room! I like pink and how I wish I could have a pink room too.
@Talamasca, depends on what your definition of “hot” is. This template, designed by me? Of course…NOT!
@Hener, figures you’d miss the house and not me.
@Ade, but…but…Toto is a dream come true, but I also want to watch SOS! Waaaah!
@Ann, you kidding? That’s one of the sites I frequented during my mad search for fics. I’ve read everything in there. EVERYTHING. Hey, mind sharing with me your friend’s fanfics? Hehe.
@Kris, yellow? Not exactly my color. But lavender is interesting. Hah!
@JJ, hello. Welcome back.
@Xyla, that is, if I actually decide to go with the pink idea.
That was one lo0o0ng post. Lol.
Guys, have you seen Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s blog? Lyk, WTF.

@_@
I cannot relate to Swing Out Sister or Toto, at all. but, what’s up with that white-bearded dude from Toto?
Love your blog! Come look at mine!!! Lol!…hehehe

… seems like ages since I last visited your blog. Hello.
Ah, pink… I’m biased. I like pink. OK, I used to hate it, but I recently changed my blog to pink and black. You could say, by embracing it, I’m embracing… myself.
But only because the P color matches the actual real nickname I was given at birth by my parents (they’re weird). They nicknamed me after a color…
I couldn’t shake off this nickname (not that’d I want to)… but I only allow close pals and family members to call me that.
The P in “Massa P” refers to that P color. (No, I won’t type it here… don’t want to be Googled.)
Oh, I thought I left a comment here…
But yeah, you’re right. There are an awful lot of pink websites out there. As for anime, I eased up on that interest quite a long time ago when I realized it was burning a hole in my wallet.
Perv. Hots for a construction worker?

Of all the colors, why mint green?

Hi rosy. Nice new look here. Simple yet, effective.
I should’ve known
And I don’t have a copy of any of the old fics I’ve read. Sori
hey Shari! I’d definitely pick Toto over SOS. Also Anime?
I’d go with Swing Out Sister. But that’s just me. Nung bata kasi ako yan yung lagi kong naririnig. In a way, for reminiscing’s sake.
pink room will look good considering that you’re a girl…
swing out sister mas ok
I miss Nancy Drews!
