As a child, Melisa would often be teased by people as an adopted child because she looks different from her siblings. But she would just laugh off whatever others would say. At a young age Melisa already had a good sense of humor. She is always at the center of attention and she even won as president of the student council because of her popularity in their university. Whatever she lacks in looks, she makes up with her witty punch lines.

What would you consider your greatest accomplishment so far?
Itong pagkakasali ko sa PBB. Hindi ko ito ine-expect kaya hanggang ngayon hindi ako makapaniwala.

What/who will you miss the most upon entering Kuya’s house?
My family, friends, ‘yung boyfriend ko, at ‘yung kama ko.

If you can be a celebrity for a day, who would you be and why?
Si Kristine Hermosa

Do you think you’ll get along well with the other housemates? Why?
Susubukan ko talagang makibagay sa kanila.

What would irritate/annoy you inside the house?
‘Yung mga moody na tao. Ayoko rin na ginugulo ‘yung buhok ko.

(got this info from PBB double up website)

Nung una talaga, when I first saw the housemates na pinapakilala as they enter the house, I am betting on Carol, kasi sya daw yung conservative type of girl and religous. as what I observed sa PBB mostly ng nanalo ay ganun, look at Nene and Kim Chiu, the modest type at simple lang. pero when I watch the first week of the show, I changed my mind. mukha kasing pilit ang pagka demure and conservative ni carol.. masyado na pinangatawanan yung pagiging conservative na it hinders her to show her true self and nagmumukha syang nakakairita sa show. sabi nga nila "too much humbleness is pride" I think hindi naman sya conservative, she just got stucked on her title.

that's when i saw this freakishly funny girl. the jester of the court. sobrang nakakatuwa talaga sya. she became the life of the PBB house this season. it is rightful lang na sya ang manalo. she showed the crowd that despite of being imperfect you can still be loved and accepted by the public as long as you are proud of yourself and you love yourself.

natutuwa ako everytime na may kilig moments sila ni Jason. it made me think.. oo nga naman.. mas masarap ma inlove sa taong may personality rather than may beauty... on the second thought... hmmm... hindi,, dun paren ako sa maganda at sexy. hahahaha.

pero kiddin aside, I would easily fall for someone with bubbly and funny personality than someone who has the beauty of aphrodite.

"maganda, pero simple

matapang pero hindi mataray

mahinhin pero hindi maarte

proud pero hindi mayabang

matalino pero hindi nagmamarunong"

sabi nga ni bob ong, " maganda man ngayon, magiging mukhang pandesal din pagdating ng panahon".

JAIRA: the spoiled brat DOG

for the last couple of months... through the downs of my life, its our dog who's always been there to cheer me up. after a long day applying for a hectic and warfare like hospital jobs... its my dog who always greets me with a wagging tail. saying, "ano? nagpakapagod ka lang... wala ka rin namanng napala. hahahaha".

Jaira is a mixed breed of Shitzu and Japanese spitz.. binigay sya ng Boyfriend ng kapatid ko for my sister, pero dahil busy sa pagiging negosyante at studyante ng kapatid ko.. I am the taking care of her.. pinangalan sya sa name ng BF ng utol ko.. gawin nyo lang masculine yung name yun na ang name ng BF ng kapatid ko. although mixed brred sya.. the vet said she looked like a maltese daw.. i may never know kasi hindi ko naman talaga kilala ang parents nya.. pero whatever's her breed. she is making our a family a less stressful one.

she's more like the amo than I am to her,. most of the time I'm attending to her needs.. from feeding to washing her. demanding pa yan pag nakikipaglaro.. once she placed her toys to your palm.. it means she wants to play... you have to react or reply unless you want your hand to be her rag doll.

pero on the other hand, mejo may advantage din sya sakin... when i bring her to malls, it never fails to catch girl's attention.. i call her nga my "chick magnet" eh:

one time we went to Mall of Asia, a group of girls walked across us and one of the brave lass asked me:

"can i take a picture with the dog" (syempre ako todo oo naman... eventually I, with the dog had a picture with the girl (^___^))

once, a group of girls approach us as well sa park bench ng isang church sa bulacan while I am waiting for my family outside the church...

pero most of the time.. nako.. puro bratinella effect ang dulot nya sa buhay ko... tulad nlang kapag:

* nagcocomputer ako at bigla nalang nyang hinila ang saksakan ng computer.. (worst: hindi ko pa nasi-save yung ginawa kong document or im in the middle of downloading mga nasa 95% complete na)

*habang natutulog ako, tatapat sya sa tenga ko sabay tatahol ng malakas na, "WWWOOOOOOFFF!!!!" at magigising ako ng parang himalang nabuhay galing sa COMA"

*habang hinahanp ko yung headset ko, makikita ko nalang na para spaghetting putol putol na dahil napaglaruan nya.

*yung mga monkey collection na stuff toys ko na bigay pa ng kung sino sino, may galing pang abroad.. minsan makikita ko na pinaglalaruan nya... at wala na ang isang mata or yung ilong.

*yung magigising nalang ako dahil hindi ako makahinga dahil nakahiga na pala sya sa mukha ko.

~ayun.. konti lang yun sa mga pasakit na binibigay nya sakin.. pero pagkatapos nya namang gawin yun.. parang walang nangyari at masya parin syang sumasalubong sakin with her wagging tail saying:

"sorry na. kasi naman kuya,,, your'e such a loser eh.. wahahaha". (~__^)

I think this is the first pic iv'e taken since she was brought to our house.

JAIRA posing for cam. (maarteng aso. tsk tsk.)

JAIRA sa church: para lang magpacute ang amo sa mga girls.. hahahaha.

JAIRA sa Grooming Salon: sobrang pampered. pero worth the sacrifice. taken sa hobbies of asia, pasay - at the back of HK sun Plaza. its under one of the pet store there. 300 lang ang full grooming service nila eh. mabait pa yung may ari.

minsan iniisip ko, mabuti na rin yun. kasi ang butihing nanay at dad ko, sobrang relieved form stress from a busy day pag nakikita nila yung dog. malaking thank you ko talaga kay Jaira kasi super nag improve yung health staus ni mama ko... binawalan kasi ng doctor ma stress ang mama ko due to surgery nya sa head couple of years ago eh.. ngayon pa na sobrang tutok ako on entertaining and making my parents happy... yun lang. kaya kung ako sa inyo maghanap na kayo ng pets ninyo.. (^_____^)

my artistic side: SHIRT DESIGNS

ETO NA: ang patunay na hindi naman ako stagnant and stationary sa loob ng mga panahong wala akong trabaho... i made sure to contact my friends and check on them... to bring back lost interest on things lalo na sa art kasi busy busyhan ang drama ko nung may trabaho... (^____^).

at eto ang naging resulta... mga hand painted shirts na originally made and planned and sketched and made by e (pwera lang syempre yung pag tahi ng damit at pag manufacture nung textile paints)

marami na akong nagawang ganito pero mostly pinamigay ko sa mga frends ko saka ayun.. pinangregalo ko nung christmas,, (^___^) wala kasing pambili ng regalo eh. hahaha.

so, may I present my latest fashion collection:

a PLANTS vs ZOMBIE life

(bago ako magsimula, advertise ko lang... guys you can add me sa facebook ko, mah email is edrianne.delacruz.rn@gmail.com )

hays.. buhay zombie talaga ang life ko ngayon.. grabe. after I resigned sa callcenter (yeah, friends na kame ng ARAW ngayon.. hehe) sobrang nadepress ako,., ganito pala kahirap humanap ng trabaho bilang isang nurse... ( buti pa si Judy Ann Santos sa, "HABANG MAY BUHAY" teleserye... madaling nakakuha ng trabaho pagka graduate palang).. I usually complain pag nag aaply sa mga medical institution:

"anu ba yan,, ang tagal tagal ng hinintay ko, 8am to 5pm... mula cartoons sa umaga hanggang atorse naabutan ko na sa TV ng reception area tapos initial interview lang nangyari sa akin.. blah.. blah.. blah.."

kaya ayon.. until now wala pa rin akong work.. almost 8 months na akong KATUGA... KAin, TUlog, at ang edited version ko sa acronym... GAwaing bahay.

ni hindi man lang ako makapag starbucks.. nakaapat lang akong stamp nung christmas para sa planner nila.. (kasi naman kinuha ni Tina yung iba kong stamp para sa planner nya)

pero ok lang. hindi naman ako BROKE ika nga nila... meron pa rin akong pera.. sa tulong ng aking butihing momma..

tuloy pa rin ako sa pag pasok ko sa masteral class ko, 2nd semester ko na nga ngayon eh... 3 semester nalang graduate na ako.. (^_^)

pero hindi naman puro bulakbol ang ginawa ko sa mga oras na wala akong pinagkukunan ng pera.. nakapag volunteer din ako sa isang lying in clinic.. (kwento ko sa susunod)..

pero madalas... puro internet lang ako sa bahay at official yaya ng alaga naming aso.. kaya nga nahilig ako maglaro ng plants vs zombies eh... saka kung noon na hindi ako nakakanuod ng tv at para akong tanga habang naguusap ang mga kapamilya ko ng mga palabas at commercial sa tv... ngayon.. avid fan na ako ng PBB, teleserye sa gabi at mga kung anik anik na commercials ngayon.

noon:

"kuya, kuya... alam mo ba yung commercial ng cobra energy drink? nakakatawa yun noh?"

"ha? anu yung cobra energy drink? teka, anong araw na ba? "

ngayon:

"(text sa cp) Oi, umwi k n.. mlpt na mag SANTINO.. ska mganda PBB ngyon... may d8 c melai at echo.. hehehehe"

noon:

"hainako... kapagod mag-gala sa mall... makabili nga sa starbucks ng dark moccha frappe at isang belgian waffle with strawberry syrup.."

ngayon:

"hais... pakshet! sa bahay na naman ako buong araw,,, grrr... makabili nga ng MILO. hmp."

noon:

"OMG late nako sa klase, i have to ride a cab... "

ngayon:

"ayun may jeep.. kelangan makasakay nako para makapag LRT pa ako later.. dahil male-late ako sa klase"

noon:

"ui may 3 day sale sa SM!!!! bibili ako ng mga pang get up ko for the christmas season"

ngayon:

"haiz makapag 168 nga sa divisoria.. "

noon:

"wow may bagong palabas sa sine... i have to see this on the big screen or sa IMAX"

ngayon:

"buti nalang may online movies... nakakapanood pa rin ako ng latest movie ngayon"

****ayun... hahahaha.. exaggerated naman lahat yan.. pero medyo parang ganyan na din ang life ko ngayon... lesson learned... wag muna mag reresign pag wala handang lilipatan na trabho... pero kung ginusto ko... matagal na akong nag tratrabaho sa call center ulit... ayun nga lang... as much as possible ayoko na bumalik sa pagiging zombie sa gabi... mabuti na ang zombie sa umaga... kahit walang money panggastos... masaya paring maging normal na tao.. hehehe.

pero in fairness nararamdaman ko na din ang kahirapan ng buhay.. kaya i feel for those people na hanggang ngayon after graduation nila ng college eh jobless pa rin.. kung ikukumpara nga im lucky pa rin kasi nakapagtrabaho ako even before graduating eh.. it just so happen na im at the bottom part of life now.. pero saan pa at malalampasan ko rin to.. ganyan talaga ang gulong ng buhay.. at isa pa... AKO SI EAGLEMAN.. (secret lang natin yun ha).. mabuti narin ito kasi nalaman ko how is life without money and stability... para pag nagkatrabaho ako ulit.. i have a driving force to excel more kasi alam ko na ang mga consequences.

basta i PROMISE.. i will be a sucessful medical professional. hmmmrrrpp.. huhuhuhhhuhuhu...

true friends vs good friends

What's the difference between a casual friend or acquaintance and a true friend? Do you have "true" friends ?

A good friend will tell you what you want to hear.A true friend will always tell the truth.

A good friend seeks to talk with you about your problems.A true friend seeks to help you with your problems.

A good friend will be there for you all through school.A true friend will be there till the day you die.

A good friend will bail you out of prison.A true friend will be sitting next to you saying"damn that was fun!".

A good friend brings a bottle of wine to your party.A true friend comes early to help you cook and stays late to help you clean.

A good friend hates it when you call after they've gone to bed.A true friend asks you why you took so long to call.

A good friend wonders about your romantic history.A true friend could blackmail you with it.

A good friend thinks the friendship is over when you have an argument.A true friend calls you after you had a fight.

A good friend, when visiting, acts like a guest.A true friend opens your refrigerator and helps himself.

A good friend has never seen you cry.A true friend has shoulders soggy from your tears.

A good friend doesn't know your parents' first names.A true friend has their phone numbers in his address book.

A good friend expects you to always be there for them.A true friend expects to always be there for you.

A good friend is someone you enjoy hanging out with.A true friend is someone you need.

**Ang pagbabalik ni Eagleman**

~o0O^O0o~

Sa wakas.. after 300 billion years.. nakabalik na rin ako sa site ko. Hahaha, syempre with a new name code: EAGLEMAN. *naks*

Isa-isahin natin ang update sa buhay ko:

1) Wala na ako sa call center, thats right! Im no longer speaking in dollars. Goodbye night shifts, goodbye stress, goodbye big salary. (huhuhu) syempre tao na ulit ako.. nasisikatan na ako ng araw, gabi na ang tulog ko, nakakanood na ako ng TV (fave ko nga ang PBB eh).

2) I’m pursuing jobs in line with mah profession. Para naman hindi na tuluyang ma stuck ang stock knowledge ko.

3) In due time, I might be taking again a licensure exam to further increase my ability ( pero sa totoo, para lang humaba ang title ko sa pangalan. Wahahaha)

4) I’m currently going out with my old buddies right now. Ang history ng mga kakulitan ko, ang nagturo sakin na mas Masaya ang mundo kung may nag-uumapaw na enjoyment sa buhay. (^____^)

5) May facebook account na din ako, at nag good bye na ako sa frendster ko. Luma na kasi eh.. syempre dun ako sa in at social studies (codename for sosyal).

6) Si lugie, yung super baet ko na frend, ayun... nasa tarlac na sya.. at nagwowork na sya as nurse.. pero nag chachat pa rin kame.. saka nag we webcam. Lagi nga gusot and buhok eh.. balak ko nga regaluhan ng suklay sa Christmas... wala ng coffee bean sessions pero ok lang.. nag kakape naman ako lage eh..

Bagong pakikipag sapalaran, bagong mga storya. Wala naming kwenta. Hahaha.

Bakit eagleman?
Hindi kasi nagbe-brakfast si eagleman. Nyahahaha.
