  11. Yumi Sagara says:

    like ko rin si johnny depp. hehe! i like his weird roles.

    nickelback, cool.

    converse… ‘yung chuck taylor style ba ang type mo? i love them!

  12. Yumi Sagara says:

    oh, i hate politics, too! haha!

  13. Elise Estrella says:

    LOL dami pala natin in common! I love Johnny Depp kasi nga ang galing galing niya sa mga ganung klaseng roles. Parang hindi mo makikitang mauulit yung acting niya. Saka converse! Kung mayaman lang ako yan ang magiging kolekshon ko haha.

  14. Yumi Sagara says:

    saka cute pa si papa johnny! :) did you see his movie ‘nick of time’? it was shown in the mid-90s i think. he played a serious “normal” role. kakapanibago nga, eh. hehe! pero ang galing niya. ala-24 ‘yung story. doon daw ginaya ‘yung format ng tc series na ‘yun.

    converse… di nawawala sa uso kaya naman fave ko rin siya. :) saka, kahit na anong outfit, babagay. oo nga eh. sarap sigurong kolektahin lahat ng kulay, noh?

  15. Elise Estrella says:

    Napanood ko yun! Papable, sobra! Pero hinihintay ko na may gawin siyang weird LOL sanay kasi akong si Edward Scissorhands siya o kaya yung nasa Sleepy Hollow :D

    Oo, kahit san bagay ang Converse! Ang gaganda pa. Yun nga din ang gusto ko kolektahin eh haha yun, saka books. Sa totoo lang, mahilig ako mangolekta kaya yung kwarto ko puro basura na haha

  16. Yumi Sagara says:

    oo nga. super-papa siya doon! hehe! like ko rin siya sa sleepy hollow at pirates trilogy.

    haha! ako rin, mahilig mangolekta ng kung anu-ano. sobrang kalat yung iniwan kong room sa pinas. madami rin akong gustong kolektahin kaso, wa datung e!

  17. Elise Estrella says:

    Yun ang laging problema, ang datung. San ka pala sa isteyts, MIss Yumi?

  18. Yumi Sagara says:

    oo nga, tapos crisis pa dito! haha! pero di bale, kaya nating mga pinoy ‘yan!

    dito sa tennessee, malapit sa knoxville. pero nagpa-plan kami ng family ng hubby ko na mag-move sa illinois where they originally lived.
    we’ll see. :)

  19. Elise Estrella says:

    Wow! Tennessee? Nakapunta ka na sa Parthenon diyan? Sobrang mahilig ako sa Greek mythology at isa yan sa gusto ko mapuntahan (saka yung sa Greece, of course). Saya!

  20. Yumi Sagara says:

    naku, hindi pa. but me and my husband was planning to go sightseeing in chattanooga or nashville next week. baka puntahan din namin ‘yun. we’ll see. i’m always interested in world history and geography. :)

    speaking of greek. we just ate at a greek restaurant yesterday. hehe! yum!

  21. Elise Estrella says:

    Wow!!! Sarap! Minsan pa lang ako nakaka-try ng Greek food eh pero na-enjoy ko naman. Uy, Miss Yumi, kuha ka madami pictures ng Parthenon pag naka-dalaw kayo ni hubby mo ha! Penge ako! Para kunyari naka-rating na din ako dun ;)

    I love history din. The older, the better LOL pero gusto ko man mag-travel wala akong datung haha kaya sa libro na lang ako nag-tatravel at nangongolekta na lang ako ng travel guides haha

  22. Yumi Sagara says:

    yeah, i like their pasta.

    sure, elise! i love taking pics. hehe!

    oo nga eh. pag mayaman lang ako, lilibutin ko ang buong mundo.

  23. Elise Estrella says:
