Non-fat milk, Almond Clusters, two packs of Yakult, Stik-O (chocolate wafer sticks aka evil), C2 apple green tea, Finetti (chocolate hazelnut spread), kimchi, Goya Black & White, chips (wasabi-flavored potato chips and Cheezit from my childhood!!!) Dewberry strawberry and cream tarts, KitKat white (!!!), the mythical Goya Dark Mint chocolates, milk tea, guavas. Not pictured are the chicken drumsticks (15 pieces) and the Korean barbecue chicken (a kilo).
I had to argue with my dad for my Almond Clusters. He was all “This is Nestle! Don’t get Nestle!” and I was like “But these are Almond Clusters! ALMOND CLUSTERS!!!” I hate living with my folks. I’d trade all that for some beer, maybe a bottle of red wine, coffee, a ream of Marlboro reds, and a line of coke (and the best diet pills). Just a couple more weeks, just a couple more weeks.

Things are going pretty good, if I may say so myself. Despite consuming about four packs of cigarettes over the long weekend, gaining five pounds of belly weight from stress-eating, and developing pains in body parts I never thought were capable of aching— I made it.
That said, I’m totally ready to get geeky. I just need to sort out several things, shake off my insecurities, and prepare myself to go back to wearing what my dad calls “ridiculous shoes”.
Anyway, some pictures:
HAPPY HOMES FOOD <3
THE UNHEALTHIEST AND YUMMIEST FOOD EVERRRRR.

AND THEIR BREADED PORK CHOPS SINCE I WAS A COLLEGE FRESHMAN.
TAKING A BREAK. SHEAR GENIUS ON TV.
ME, DYING, AND THINKING ABOUT MEDITERRANEAN CRUISES
AND HOW AWESOME IT WOULD BE TO GO ON ONE.
Hee!

It dawned on me today that I haven’t been reading much lately. In fact and to be exact, I haven’t read a single book AT ALL since I moved in with my folks last March. Instead of beating myself up over this absolutely unforgivable disservice to my brain or coming up with a handful of excuses as to why I’ve devolved into some airhead who thinks Mitch Albom’s The Five Five People You Meet In Heaven is the apex of literature (for the record: I don’t), I decided to just grab Catherine Liu’s Oriental Girls Desire Romance (which I began reading months ago), curl up in bed, and devote the next couple of hours to reading.
Uh-oh. No coffee. More importantly, no cigarettes. It may seem silly to you— and this is the part of me I’d love to see led out behind the barn one night and shot— but I’ve been conditioned to only be able to work properly when I have a constant supply of caffeine and nicotine coursing through my, uh, veins (alcohol helps a whole lot, too, sometimes). Sure, reading non-fiction doesn’t really count as “work”, especially when there is no book review to be written afterwards; but reading requires brain activity and some level of reflection and rumination. Basically, what I’m trying to say is that I am even more stupid without my socially-accepted drugs.
Book in hand, I left my room and plopped down on the couch beside my mom. That proved to not be the brightest of ideas because as soon as I sat down and folded my legs beneath me, Pinoy Big Brother Teens came on and my mom told me to go online and vote for this dude.
My face, it went like this: -_-
Things that kept me from getting any actual reading done:
1. Kat DeLuna’s Whine Up video.
2. Pinoy Big Brother Teens and how the more I try to wrap my head around it, the more hopeless the general Filipino public seems to me.
3. Finding a place. Here’s the deal: I live ridiculously far from the city and three months of _this_ is really all I can take. The plan is for my older brother and I to get a place together near his school. I gave my mom our options: a 2-bedroom unit in Cubao, Anonas, Sikatuna Village, or Katipunan/Loyola Heights (I really really want to move back to my comfort zone).
Currently, I am going through the ads on Buy and Sell Philippines and Sulit.Com.Ph and while this isn’t exactly torture (I actually like e-hunting for apartments), I am quite the frustrated kitty. Is it truly possible to not be able to google a place/address? More importantly, do I really want to live in a street, area, or building that cannot be found on Wikimaps?
Sad kitty eats Oreo cookie now:
If by any chance you’re from North Carolina (huhlolz. But at least that’s on Wikimaps *grumble*), check out NC health insurance.

Seeing that it is the 23rd of May and to prove to myself that I do not completely fail when it comes to certain things (like blogging everyday!!!), I thought today would be a good time to return to 23 for 23.
To make up for the ten skipped parts, I originally thought of posting ten pictures from the last ten years, starting from 1998 when I was 13 (that was obviously me proving to you that I know math). It seemed like a brilliant idea until I attacked our family photo albums and realized that the pictures weren’t organized by year.
My brilliant idea was an immediate fail.
So I thought: oh what the heck, I’ll post pictures anyway (besides, why would I want to post pictures of my awkward phase which is basically me, aged 6-16?). Starting with a picture from my 1st birthday party! At McDonald’s! Followed by a picture of me blowing out my birthday candle at 4!
THAT THING ON MY NOSE…I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IT IS.
1. A very young me, evidenced by the fact that I am wearing a silly head thing for very young babies.
2. It looks like I’m peeing, but I am not.
3. Helga, age shorter-than-a-doorknob.
4. Me with a childhood toy I absolutely do not remember having.
1. Still with the same childhood toy. It surprises me how tiny I was.
2. This was a Christmas gift from someone. I remember breaking that thing in half while playing with it.
3. I think I also broke my brother’s Batman toy.
4. Me and my daddy!
1. At Manila Zoo. I have a bunch of pictures smiling like that.
2. You don’t see it, but I was sitting on a bilao.
3. My brother and I being total 80s kids (I was wearing lavender leggings, his sleeves were rolled up).
4. A prediction of things to come.
1. AWKWARD!
2. AWKWARD!
3. AWKWARD!
4. MOST AWKWARD!!!
I was a cute kid, if I may say so myself. Just ignore the last set.

In my last entry, J (who just turned 22!) asked if I had an Amazon wish list. I actually do, and not only is it in need of updating, it also just might be the blandest wish list you’ve ever seen. “Books and DVDs? Where are the dildos, woman! The drug prescriptions, the bling, the KFC gift certificates, the pots and pans and sammich makers!” exclaimed lover, after scanning my one-page sorry excuse of a wish list.
Okay, so he didn’t really say that. He just said to put in some dresses and maybe something sexy for him to get me, like lime green bike shorts.
Today’s entry is short and lists 3 things that I really really really want for my birthday. Unfortunately, hard as I tried, I couldn’t find any of those things on Amazon. So if any of you are hoping to get me the following as gifts, you’d have to really really really exert some effort here.

Hi, my name's Helga Weber and welcome to my personal site. I'm 23. My first socio-political scandal will happen at the age of 35 and will include men, sushi, an African country, and lots of money. My lover is the greatest.
