The Happenings

Dumaan na pala yung birthday ko pero hindi ako nakapagblog-post. 22nd kaarawan ko last December 17. My gosh, tumatanda na ko. Hahaha. Nasanay ako na si bestfriend Macky ang kasama ko tuwing birthday ko. Siya pa din kasama ko this time pero medyo late na kame nakapagkita because of the pre-test they're conducting to their students. Yes, she's s teacher here sa isang high school malapit lang din sa amin. Sinabihan ko siya dati na mag-advanced paalam siya sa school para makapagleave on my birthday itself pero one week after eh inannounce yung pre-test. Kaya late na kame nagkita. Sa SM Manila kame nagkita. Nag-iipon ako ng stickers sa Starbucks for the planner kase ireregalo ko sa ate ko yung planner. Hindi ko feel yung planner. I hit two birds with one stone. Nakainom na ko ng drinks, me panregalo pa ako sa ate ko. Hahaha.

Diretso kaming MOA after naming magkita. Bumili ng tickets for Rise of the Guardians. First time kong manonood ng cartoon(?) sa sine kase hindi ko feel. Mas gusto ko yung mga totoong tao yung nakikita ko sa pinilakang tabing. Pero ironically, super nagustuhan ko yung movie. Ganda ng storyline, ang gwapo pa ni Jack Frost. Hahaha. 2nd time kong magka-crush sa hindi totoong tao. Yung una eh yung si King sa pinapanood kong anime sa Channel 2 dati na nakalimutan ko na yung title. Hahaha. We both enjoyed the movie dahil sa mgandang story and graphics na pinabongga pa ng 3d glassess. Lol. Bitin ang oras kase 8pm na natapos yung movie. Diretso na kame sa dinner. A Veneto it is. Mahina kame kumain pareho kaya konti lang inorder namin. Picturan galore after. Here are some. Malamang yung maaayos yung pipiliin ko. Hahaha.

Next in line sa mga exciting na kaganapan sa buhay ko eh ang nagdaang Christmas Party ng company namin. Like last 2010, it was held sa SMX Convention Center. Yep, madalas ako sa MOA nowadays. Hahaha. Mafia themed and Christmas Party namin kaya nagkalat ang mga nakablack and red. I preferred black and gray, maiba lang. Hahaha. Wala akong constant na kasama nung party kase lahat ng friends ko, me kanya kanya ng groups kaya libot libot ang ginawa ko. Para akong squatter. Hahaha. Me time nga na wala talaga akong kasama, nagtatatawag ako kung kani kanino para lang hindi ako magmukhang lonely. Hahaha. Ang pathetic lang. Lol. Of course, hindi nawala sa eksena an super picture-picturan to the max and to the highest level. Kaso nakakaloka ang lightings sa venue, hindi maganda yung 70% ng mga pics sa phone ko. Nakakaloka. Hahaha. Mamimili na naman ako ng mga maayos na pics ko. Please see below. Hahaha.

Right after the party eh diresto kame ng isa sa mga circle of friends ko na kinabibilangan ni Robert sa Starbucks MOA, nakuha ko na rin yung planner ko sa wakas. Nagkaron pa nga ng aberya and na-void yung isa sa mga stickers ko kaya bumili ulit kame ng isa pa para lang makuha ko na. Hahaha. Here it is. :-)

Naganap ang annual dinner/Christmas Party namin ng mga college friends ko aka Geecee sa Chili's Greenbelt. Eksena kame kase ang usapan namin lagi, lahat dapat bibigyan mo ng kahit anong gift. Kahit yung tig-30 lang. Tapos yung sa totoong nabunot mo, 500 naman. So nagkalat yung gifts namin kahapon sa table kase meron kaming tig-7 na gifts. Hahaha. I gave Midz yung kung ano yung nasa unahan ng wishlist niya which was a planner from Belle de Jour. Yep, andami kong reregaluhan ng planner this Christmas, bali apat. Eksena lang. Lagpas sa alloted amount yung planner pero keri lang. Dinagdagan ko pa ng G-Tech na ballpen. Hahahaha. Birthday kase ni Midz nung 14 kaya sinagad sagad ko na. Ako naman, I received a wallet. Hindi ko masyadong bet na bet yung wallet na bigay ni Sarah pero keribels na din. Actually, MFG yung gusto kong wallet kaso 1000 plus siya, so pinasabi ni Sarah ke Midz na magdagdag na lang ako dun sa kulang. Kaso 1000 daw yung idadagdag ko kase 1500 plus yung gusto niyang iregalo for me kaya sabi ko wag na lang. Nakakatawa naman yun na doble pa nung alloted amount yung idadagdag ko. Hahaha. Keri naman yung wallet, malalagay ko na sa isang maayos na lalagayan lahat ng cards ko. :-) Me separate na gift sakin si Eunny kase nga nagbirthday ako. Super thanks to her kase isa yung regalo niya sa mga gusto kong basahin!!! Yung Para Kay B ni Ricky Lee. Mukhang magiging collector na talaga ako ng mga tagalog novels. I'll start next year. Eto pala lahat ng gifts na natanggap ko. :-)

Magkakasama kame kagabi ng pumatak yung oras na sinasabing magugunaw yung mundo. Hindi ako naniniwala dun sa mangyayaring yun simula nung inannounce ng NASA na wala namang malapit na churvang something na may hit the Earth. So scientifically, malabo talaga siya. Tapos it's stated pa sa bible na even the angels and the Son don't know when's the end. Only the Father knows it so wag mag-ambisyon ang mga Mayans na yan na alam nila kung kelan. Hahaha. Nakakaloka lang 'tong si Nostradamus magbigay ng mga pangitain niya. Nakakaparanoid tuloy nung unang lumabas yang prediction ng Mayans na yan. Nadamay pa ang Oppa Gangnam Style. Hahaha. Sabi kase diba, kapag naghit ng 9 digits yung views sa youtube nung video, it's the end na daw. Eh saktong nakaka 900000000+ views na ata siya last week kaya sumasakto. Mga echusera! Hahaha. Anyway, super mahal pala sa Chili's. Naloka ako sa bill namin. Parang dapat nag eat-all-you-can na lang kame. Me sukli pa! Hahaha.

Naloka ako sa iniwan kong tasks sa office kagabi. Punyeta kase eh, biglaan na deadline daw kagabi. Eh nakaleave na ko next week!!! Kaya ngarag ngarag ako bago umalis eh kaso hindi ko natapos yung status ko, keber! Me social life ako no! Buti ko nung mga nakaraan araw niyo ko pinagmadali. Bahala kayo sa buhay niyo. Char! Hindi ko nga alam kung nainis ba sakin yung SME(subject matter expert) namin kase iniwan ko yung trabaho ko. Sana naman hindi. Ayoko na ng tension sa office. Nakakalurkey lang. Magpa-Pasko pa naman. Last update I got, keri naman ata at natapos nila. Mabait naman yun kaya hindi naman siguro siya nagalit sakin. Hahahaha. Mwah mwah friend, babawi ako sayo. Hahaha.

Ayan lang guys. Dyan nagtatapos ang adventures ng inyong martian these past few days. Sana makapagpost pa ko bago matapos ang taon. Tutal, wala na naman akong pasok. Wish me luck!!! :-)

Happy Christmas everyone!!! Mwah mwah. Keep safe. Godbless. :-)  

The Logo Quiz's Effect

I already got my phone from globe last Tuesday and masasabing sulit siya. Last Friday pa talaga siya ready for delivery pero dahil nga we're going to the province, I decided na idelay siya ng konti. Sobrang daming features ng Galaxy Note 2 na hindi ko ma-imagine na mag-e-exist pala. Like yung smart stay na hindi mamamatay yung screen ng phone if the sensor sa harap ng phone found out na nakatingin ka pa sa screen. Useful 'to if you're into reading. Kahit gaano kahaba yung text sa screen and matagal mo itong binabasa, the screen will not lock basta ma-sense ng phone na nakatingin ka sa screen. Another feature is the smart rotation na hindi mag-o-auto rotate yung screen kahit na horizontal na yung phone mo basta ma-detect na parallel sa phone mo yung mukha mo. One example of this is when you're reading while lying on the bed. The most powerful feature of the phone is the multi-window feature. Well, actually, hindi ko siya masyadong maappreciate kase I'm not the type of person na gumagamit ng dalawang applications at the same time at one screen. Sabi sa mga nababasa kong review, maganda daw gamitin if you're watching a movie then you have received a text and you need to reply. Ang weird lang kase makakanood ka ba habang nagtatype ng maayos? Kaya hindi ko feel 'tong feature na to pero astig siya actually. Hahaha. Ayan ha, calling Samsung and Globe, wala ba kong fee sa pagbi-build up ng products niyo??? Hahaha.

We watched the lights and sound show sa Ayala Triangle last night. I learned that iba iba pala yung nangyayari bawat show every night. Kada-30 minutes kase umuulit yung bawat show and nakaka-apat ata na show every night. Every show lasts for 10 minutes ata kaya ngawit na ngawit ako after kong videohan yung halos 90% nung show. 90% lang kase walang babala nung nagsimula. Hahaha. Nakaupo kame sa bench ng bigla na lang nagsimula. Ba yan?! Walang pasabi??? Hahaha.

The four of us had dinner na malapit lang sa Headstrong kase babalik pa yung dalawa sa office. Ganun ka-busy sa project nila. Anyway, I called Robert to invite them to join. Sakto namang magdi-dinner din sila kaya go sila. First time kong nakita yung bf ng isa sa friends namin. Badtrip kase naging crush ko siya. Shetness. Bakit siya pa? Charot. Hahaha. Hindi siya ganong gwapo pero me dating. Keri pumorma. Nung una deadma lang ako pero after naming maglaro ng Logo Quiz, tsaka ko siya naging crush. Dami niyang alam na logo. Na-conclude ko tuloy na matalino siya. And alam niyo yan! Weakness ko ang mga ka-brotherhood ni Einstein.

After dinner eh we headed sa coffee shop sa Vito Cruz. Of course, Starbucks it was dahil sa stickers for the planner. Social climbers lang ang peg. Wahahaha. Sosyal-sosyalan ang mga tao dun kase karamihan taga-La Salle. I just wanna share. Hahaha. Naghintay pa kame ng table na me malapit na outlet kase nalobat yung phone ko. Eh dun kame naglalaro ng logo quiz. May we continue the game na and as usual, napabilib niya ko sa galing niya. Paksheeeeet. Hahahaha.

Another thing I admired about him was the fact na hindi siya ilang sakin. Ang galing lang kase unang beses pa lang naming mag-meet then ang ingay ingay ko pa kagabi. Baklang bakla talaga pero nararamdaman ko talagang hindi siya naiilang sakin. Ang galing lang kase nakakapag-eye to eye contact kame habang nagkakagulo sa Logo Quiz. Hahaha. Tapos nagtatanungan pa kame na akala mo matagal na kameng magkakilala. Ang cute lang. Hahaha. Me nakaka-churva pang nangyari. Bago kase pumuntang Starbucks, pumunta kame sa office ng Headstrong. Nagcr yung iba kaya naiwan kaming dalawa. Hindi naman naging masyadong awkward. Konti lang. Hahaha. I decided na mag-cr kaya naiwan siya dun. Paglabas ko ng cube, nag-cr din pala siya buti na lang sa cube din siya kase baka matukso akong silipan siya. CHAROT lang!!! Hahaha. Basta ayun, binilisan ko na lang sa wash area para hindi na kame mag-abot. Hahaha. Basta, there's something about him kaya na-attract ako sa kanya. But i can't be. Sh*t. Malamang sa malamang eh straight siya dahil jowa niya nga yung friend kong girl. I dunno what happened to me at in-add ko agad siya sa fb. Waaaah. Hindi ako mahilig mag-add ng hindi ko naman ka-close pero I did, last night. What's happening to me. Hahahaha. Kelangan kong malagpasan ang phase ng kalandiang to. Agad agad. Hahaha. Wish me luck!!!

KSGB! Mwah! :-)

The _riefs

I hate deaths. Kung may paraan lang para walang mamatay na tao especially sa mga love ones ko and if it's bibilically legal, I'll find a way to do it. Grrrr. I hate the feeling na me nagsa-suffer na tao because of the loss. Kahit anong pag-intindi ko sa phrase na "Huwag mo na siyang masyadong alalahanin, kasama na siya ni Papa God", ang hirap pa ding lunukin nung truth na nawalan ka ng mahal sa buhay. Siguro nga totoo yung sinabi ng high school teacher ko sa Economics na majority ng kalungkutan natin sa pagkamatay ng isang mahal sa buhay yung fact na wala ng gagawa ng mga tungkulin niya dito sa mundo especially sa family niya nung nabubuhay pa siya. Partly sad but partly true. Madami na kong nasaksihan sa tv na ini-interview na kamag-anak ng namatay/pinatay/nagpakamatay na tao na humahagulgol dahil sa mga dahilang : "Pano na ang pang-gatas ng mga anak natin? Huhuhu.", "Sino na ang gagastos sa pampaaral ng bunsong kapatid mo. Parang awa niyo na po, tulungan niyo po kame." and the likes. Pero syempre mas hindi nawawala yung palasak na : Napakabait na tao/ina/ama/anak/kapatid/asawa/pamangkin/tito/tita/lolo/lola po niyan. Bakit siya pa?". Dyan ko na conclude na ang grief ng isang tao eh hindi pangsarili lamang. 

Fiesta ang peg ng dinner pagdating namin ng Tarlac. Nahiya naman ako kase pumunta kame dun para makiramay hindi makikain. Hahaha. Basta ang daming pagkain. Halatang pinagkagastusan. Nakokonsensya tuloy ako. Hindi man lang ako nakapagbigay ng budget for food. LOL. Pumunta na kame ke Chang (we were raised na "Chang" ang "Chong" ang tawag sa mga titas and titos, respectively) to give our condolences. Konting kumustahan na din sa mga pinsan ko. Of course, medyo ilang ako sa mga pinsan kong lalaki pero I did my best to mingle but I guess my best wasn't good enough. Lol. Sa babae talaga ako comfortable na makipagkwentuhan kase nga we were on the same page. Lol. We can talk about everything without hesitations. Work/studies, buhay buhay and syempre boys. Hahaha. My gosh naman no, pananamit ko pa lang, dapat halata na nila. Lol. Nalaman ko sa mga kwentuhan namin na marami pala sa kanila eh nagsipag-asawa na. Ok naman yung iba, me mga kaya yung napangasawa and yung iba, parang walang nagbago sa pamumuhay nila. Simple lang. Mahirap palang makapag-aral ng college dun kase me bayad. Napakaswerte ko talaga na wala man lang akong any fee nung college sa PLM maliban sa P30 na bayad sa school paper namin. Normal lang naman yung suot ko pero feeling ko sinusuri ako nga mga taong nakakakita sakin. I didn't use yung mga gay lingo na alam ko para hindi naman ako umeksena. Ayaw ko namang lumabas na loud-slutty-bitch gay sa kanila. LOL. Pero hindi naman ako nag-astang lalaki din. Ok na yung nagpaka-prim and proper ako. Ayokong nagpapanggap. Maganda na yung malaman nilang lahat na hindi ako straight. Lalo na sa mga girls. Hindi ako gwapo pero hindi din naman siguro pangit kaya pinagtitinginan ng mga teenage girls. Siguro minsan lang me dumayong Manileno sa part na yun ng province. My gosh naman, hindi ko kayo type. LOL. Matapos kumain at makipagkwentuhan, lumibot na kame sa iba pang bahay ng mga kamag-anak namin. Dun ko na napansin ang mga pagbabago. 

9 years akong hindi nakapunta dun. Nung mga unang taon, dahil sa kabusy-han kaya hindi ako sumasama pero nung nagtagal parang default na talaga na hindi ako sumasama kase feeling ko I don't belong. Arteeee. Lol. Madami sa mga cousins ko, especially sa mga lalaki(madami akong first cousins na lalaki), ang hindi ko na makilala. Kung hindi pa sila pinakilala or kung hindi ko pa narinig yung pangalan nila, hindi ko makikilala. Actually yung iba nga kahit binaggit na yung name, hindi ko pa din ma-recognize. Nakakaloka. Hahaha. Hindi ko na din makilala yung lugar! Pagbaba nga namin sa inarkila naming jeep eh hindi ko na masyadong makilala yung place namin. Nagkaron kase ng tindahan sa harapan nung lagi naming tinutuluyan. Yung mga bahay naman nila, naging bato na lahat, dati kase, puro mga parang kubo pa sila. Yan pala ang nagagawa ng halos isang dekada. 

Natalo ako ng tumataginting na 500+ sa mini-sugal naming Pares Pares and Lucky 9. Hahaha. Keri lang naman kase minsan lang yun and madami din namang napunta sa ball. Inabot kame ng 3:30am sa paglalaro. Take note, nagsimula kame ng mga 7:30pm. So 8 hours kaming nakaupo dun. Parang pumasok na din sa office! Kaloka. Hindi naman kase namin namalayan yung oras dahil sa tawanan namin. Hindi ko nga alam kung appropriate bang nagsasaya kame habang nagsusugal sa patay eh. Nagpainom pa ng Tanduay Ice. Muntik pa kong malasing sa isang bote! Chos! Dito ko napansin si isang cutie. Nakaharap siya sa isang direction ko. Wala siyang ginagawa nung una pero nung nagtagal eh nagsugal na din malapit samin. Hindi pala masyadong cute. Lol. Pero keri na din. Nahiya naman ako kase nasa patay ako pero lumalandi pa din ang lola niyo. Hahaha. Hindi mo naman kase maalis yun diba. Lumusot pa ko. Lol. Actually, cute yung pinsan kong anak nung tito kong namatay pero syempre that's a no-no. Mahiya naman ako sa sarili ko diba. Tsaka nakita ko kinabukasan na me jowa na pala si insan kaya mas lalong off-limits na. LOL. So may I forget na about them na. Akala ko makakapag-concentrate na ko sa nilalaro namin kase natatalo na yung milyones ko. Hahaha. Pero may dumating na mapormang guy. Let's call him "the red guy". Naka-red kase siya. Bwahahaha. Mas gwapo si insan dito pero dahil off-limits nga si cous, keri na siya. LOL. Later on, nalaman kong anak siya sa ibang guy ng asawa ng tito kong namatay na din dati pa. Hindi ko sure kung kamag-anak ko pa siya. Sana hindi na. Fingers crossed. LOL.  

4:00am na ako nakatulog and charan! 6:00am, gising na ko. Kumusta naman yung pagkahilo ko nun diba. Sana pala tinuloy tuloy na lang namin hanggang umaga yung pagsusugal. Hahaha. Breakfast galore and prepare na for the libing. Sobrang init ng sikat ng araw kaya mega-payong kame. Mahabang lakarin pero keri naman kase kakwentuhan ko yung cousin kong girl na taga-Manila din. Eksena sa mass yung pamangkin ko kase umiyak ng bonggang bongga eh di super echo yun sa buong simbahan. Eksena talaga. Lol. Muntik na kong maiyak nung sini-seal na yung nitso ni Chong. Ramdam ko yung lungkot ng bawat isa. Kahit na hindi naman kame close eh alam kong mabait na asawa, kapatid at ama siya. Naalala ko nung nalaman na ng tatay ko(kapatid ng tito kong namatay) na wala na si Chong. Hagulgol to the max siya. And for a guy na umiyak ng ganon, alam kong nalungkot at nasaktan talaga siya. Nasabi pa nga niya na me time na umuwi siya ng province and naubos yung pera niyang dala, si Chong yung nagbigay sa kanya ng pamasahe pauwi dito sa Manila. Anyway, naiinis ako sa mga picture-pictures sa lamay/libing. Parang inappropriate talaga. Nagdadalamhati yung mga tao tapos kinukunan mo pa. Parang ang sad lang.

After lunch time eh umalis na kame. Sobrang paalamanan ang naganap. Syempre mukhang matatagalan ulit bago ako makabalik dun kaya may-I-hug ako sa mga tita ko and sa ka-close kong girl cous. My gosh, muntik ko pang makalimutan yung cellphone kong naka-charge. Nakakaloka. As in, nakasakay na ko sa jeep, makakalimutan ko pa. Lol. Hindi pa kame dumretso sa Manila. Dumaan muna kame sa bahay ng pinsan ko na sa Tarlac din nakatira pero sa ibang bayan. Kinikilig ako kase kasama ko sa jeep si the red guy. Ngayon ko lang na-realize na hindi pala ako sure kung kapatid ba siya ng pinsan ko sa nanay. Hahaha. Basta ayun na. Medyo na-bored ako sa kanila kase halos matatanda lang yung nagkukwentuhan and antok na antok na talaga ako kaya nakaidlip ata ako sa jip. Nakiligo muna ako sa kanila nung nalaman kong nagkatay pa ng manok and niluluto pa yung tinola. Bihis na ako and naglalagay na ng wax sa hair ko ng makita kong nasa salas ng bahay si red guy and he's pulling down his pants. I was like "omg, what are you doing? bilisan mo, na-e-excite ako". Charot lang! Akala ko underwear niya yung nakikita kong black nung hinuhubad na niya yung pants niya. Grabe, pervert ang peg ko dyan. Hahaha. Pero to my dismay, naka denim shorts pala siya inside. Ano ba yan. Lol. Akala ko tinutukso niya ko. Balak ko pa namang magpatukso. CHAROT lang!!! Hahaha. Ayun lang. Bow. Mukhang straight si kuya eh. Hindi ko siya masyadong nakakatinginan eh. Ambisyoso lang ako kase akala ko kukunin niya yung number ko. Akala ko lang pala. Hahaha. Umuwi na din kame after makain yung tinolang fresh from the kinatay na manok. Feelingero pa ako kase feeling ko ako yung kinakawayan ni red guy nung umaandar na yung jeep namin paalis sa kanila. Hahaha.

Masaya naman ako sa experience kong ito maliban sa fact na namatayan kame. Nagbabalak sila ng reunion kase nga naman andaming hindi magkakakilala this coming December kaya sana eh matuloy. Nakakatakot lang kase feeling ko gagastos ako ng malaki dun. Hahahahaha. Masaya nga pala ako ngayon kase approved na yung application ko for note 2 and hopefully, makuha ko na siya sa Tuesday! Love it! :-)

That's all guys. KSGB. :-)

Does Globe really sucks?

Nababadtrip ako sa globe. Ang weird lang kase hindi daw nila narereceive yung requirements na pinapadala ko regarding sa application ko for one of their plans. Last October 31 pa ko nagpasa ng requirements ko sa kanila. Four latest payslips, two latest credit card statements and a valid ID. Saturday afternoon tumawag si ateng taga-Globe. Malas lang kase nasa loob ako ng cinema at nanonood ng Skyfall kaya I advised her to call again later that evening which she never did. Monday when I followed up my application via telephone call sa hotline nila and it's indicated daw na they haven't received yet my requirements which was okay with me naman since hindi naman ako nagmamadali and Nov. 1 ng madaling araw ko na ata nasend yung requirements(?) so I re-sent it na lang.

Tuesday morning when I followed up again to confirm if they received na yung e-mail ko ng mga requirements. Hindi pa daw. They said na baka hindi pa lang nila ulit nachecheck yung e-mail. So ok lang. As I've said, hindi naman ako nagmamadali. They also said na I should follow up again after two days kaya Thursday, I followed up again. My gosh, wala pa din daw. Maghintay na lang daw ako ng tawag from them. Nakakaloka lang. So kunwari, ok lang ulit. Hahaha.

Nasa Star City ako kahapon when I received a call from them. Ang weird lang kase bakit tuwing Saturdays lang niya ko tinatawagan. Nagtataka lang ako kase ang haba ng weekdays pero bakit Saturday niya ko pinipiling tawagan. She explained to me what happened sa application ko and uminit talaga ang ulo ko. She told me na baka daw nag-exceed sa 2mb yung e-mail ko ng mga requirements kaya hindi nila narereceive which I'm sure it really did kase ilang images din yun. Nakakaloka lang kase I'm not advised na ganun pala yun. Nagreklamo ako sa kanya na I should have been informed na ganun. Shet lang. Dahil mabait ako, i told her na sige, i-re-re-send ko lna ang when I got home. Nabadtrip lang ako sa sinabi niya na kung gusto ko daw, sa globe physical store na lang daw ako mag-apply para walang problema. Eh punyeta pala siya eh. Kaya nga sa kanila ako nag-apply para wala masyadong hassle eh tapos sasabihan niya ko ng ganun??? Isang maling salita na lang talaga niya, makuha ko lang yung unit, irereklamo ko talaga siya. Badtrip.

Anyway, super nag-enjoy naman ako kahapon sa Star City kaya keri lang. Relaxed na ako. Pagtyatyagaan ko na lang muna tong poor service na globe. Kaya siguro mas mababa yung cash out kapag sa phone ka nag-apply compared sa physical store eh dahil nga kung anik anik na hassle ang mararanasan mo. Hahaha. Buti na lang kahit papano me mga cute kahapon sa Star City. Meron din namang super mga gwapo pero lahat ata eh taken na. Ouch lang. Kasama pa yung mga jowa nilang mukhang katulong. Charot! Bitter lang. Hahaha.

Super quota ako sa Surf Dance kase naka-apat na sakay ako. Nung pang apat na sakay ko eh parang wala na masyadong excitement. Hahaha. Pero super saya pa din. Hindi ko na ulit tinry yung Viking kase eto yung nagpasama ng pakiramdam ko the last time I went there. I believe, nasulit ko naman ang Ride All You Can worth 350 . Hahaha!

That's all! KSGB! :-)

A Not So Beautiful Affair

  

I haven't posted anything pala last October. Wala kase akong maisip. Hahaha. Anyhow, what's happening to the cursed martian ba? Parang wala nga eh. Kung me highlights kase sa buhay ko last month, I created a post sana. Kaso mukhang wala talaga. Hahaha.

Magkukuwento na lang ako ng kung ano ano. Hahaha. Napadalas ang mga gimik re : alcohol consumption, coffee drinking, movie time, mall strolling. Well, I can't say na it's gimik talaga. Basta lagi akong nagyaya sa kung saan saan. Coffee here, inuman there. Movie here, rampa there. Kaya nga taghirap pa din ako hanggang ngayon. Hahaha.

Even though poorita pa rin ako, I didn't have second thoughts on giving myself a Christmas gift which I'll pay for 24 months. Hahaha. I already computed my gastos for gifts/pamasko for my love ones and holy macaroni, mas malaki pa sa 13th month pay ko. Hahaha. Kaya naman naisip ko na better give myself naman a gift kahit papano. Kawawa naman ako kung wala akong mabibili for myself this December eh it's my birthmonth kaya! And it's Pasko; time  for giving. Kaya bibigyan ko din ang sarili ko. Hahaha.

I already applied sa Globe for the phone I'm eyeing and I'll wait na lang na tawagan nila ako para sa delivery nung unit. Anyway, Galaxy Note II yung gusto ko. A gigantic phone kaya tinatawag din siyang phablet (phone/tablet). See pics below. For more information about the phone, please google it na lang. Hahaha. I told earlier na 24 moths kong babayaran yung unit because it has a lock-in period of 2 years with a cash out of P6k, it has a minimum monthly bill of 1799 with an unlimited internet and P800 consumable Sir/Ma'am. Any other charges and transaction will be on top of the minimum bill po like sharing load. Wahahaha. CSR lang ng Globe ang peg??? Hahaha. Yung nasa right side na color yung gusto ko. :-)

       

On a darker note(me ganun ba? Hahaha.), bitter ako sa crush sa twitter. Hindi niya ko nirereplyan. I added him kase on FB and I told him on a twitter message na hindi niya pa ko kino-confirm. I thought ok lang yung pagkakasabi ko kase akala ko ok yung online friendship namin. Eh hindi siya nagrereply kahit ilang beses ko na siyang minessage so I took it as a "no". Actually, in-add ko na din siya dati bigla ko lang binawi yung friend request kase nahiya ako bigla. I never thought naman na wala pala talaga siyang balak i-confirm ako. Hahaha. Bitter lang ako ng konti kase akala ko we're riding on a same boat. Turns out, we don't. Pero nakapagmove-on na naman ako. Wala naman akong magagawa kung ayaw niya sakin diba. Nakakasawa ng magpakababa. Emo??? Chos! Hahaha. Basta hindi na ko bitter katulad nung mga nakaraang araw. Ayan EG ha, hindi na talaga ko bitter. Baka kung ano pa masabi mo. Hahaha.

Ok fine, on a lighter note naman, lagi nga kaming umaalis ng mga college friends ko nowadays. Kahit lunch, madalas pa din kaming magkakasama considering na magkakaiba kame ng company. Nagkikita kame sa Ayala then gora na sa Landmark where we always eat. Meron kase dung food court sa pinakababa. Hahaha. Syempre tipid mode kami madalas kase masakit sa bulsa if we'll eat sa restaurants everytime we'll eat together diba. Tapos sila din madalas kong kasama pag nag-i-stroll sa malls and pag nag-i-inuman. Masaya kasi silang kasama. I can be the pinakabaklang version ko when I'm with them. Malandi ako pag kasama ko sila. Walang sapawan sa kwentuhan. Kanya kanyang ingay. Kanya kanyang kwento. Even if tatlo lang kame, minsan apat, wala talagang dull moments. Sana hindi magtapos ang mga gimiks namin. Malulungkot talaga ako ng bongga. :-(

Umuwi nga pala galing Singapore yung super friend namin ni Robert. We had a dinner at TGIF courtesy of generous Robert. Hahaha. Don't worry friend, babawi ako senyo kapag malaki na sahod ko. Lol. Nakakalungkot lang kase sandali lang kaming nagchikahan. Sumakit kase tiyan nila sa ininom nilang drinks na parang cocktail. Hahaha. Anyway, wag ka ng mag-emo Robert, ipagpe-pray ko na makahanap ka na. Kahit wala na ko, kahit ikaw na lang. Ganyan ako kabuting kaibigan. Wahahaha. Sana din makaget-over ka na ke Tutut. Para naman ke Khai, ingat ka diyan sa sg, sana magbloom ang lovelife mo diyan. Hahaha.

Pinagalitan ako ng AVP sa office last week. Nahuli kase akong nag-tu-twitter. Aminado naman ako sa kasalanan ko kaya medyo nahihiya ako. Hahaha. Nanood kame kahapon ng Skyfall. Ganda ha, in fairness. Ganda din nung theme song ng movie : the title itself by Adele.

Meron akong super problem ngayon kaso super haba na nitong not-so-bitter post ko. Next week I'll post it. Nababagabag talaga ako sa future ko. Hahaha. Sana me makashare ako ng frustrations ko about that. Malay mo, hindi na natin problemahin yun kase sabay na natin siyang haharapin. Ansabeeee? Hahahahahaha.

KSGB! Mwah. :-)

Challenge

If I'll be given a challenge of not having a loving partner in return of giving a homeless family a house of their own, I believe I'll be taking it with no doubt. You know, for me, life's not all about being happy in terms of romance. It's about having this one of a kind feeling of satisfaction in terms of soul gratification.

If I'll be choosing between me and a broke love one to whom a million-dollar cheque will be given to, I think I myself will hand it to him. I really believe that even if you're the richest man in the world but you don't have anyone to share it to, you may feel alone some time. As the song Price Tag says, it's not about the money, money, money. I'm sure that that someone will be grateful for that gesture and I'll feel a somewhat self satisfaction that is felt once in a blue moon.

If me and a very close friend of mine both fell in love with just one guy, we can imagine that I'll give him(in case he's gay)/her the way given that he's also in love with him/her. It's not all the time that you're given a chance to do a good thing in your life. I'm sure I'll not be making any move to ruin their relationship if in case I'm still in love with the guy. I'm already used to being alone and as I always say in this blog, I'm already prepared of being alone in the future. Drama te? Hahaha. 

Well, my point is I'm ready to give self-sacrifices in return of the happiness of any love one.  

But come to think of it, it'll be perfect if we will all be rich, the homeless family will have a house of their own and we'll have a partner that will be there with us no matter what. Isn't that happy? I'm sure contentment will be in our hearts and the world will be a better place. :)

Jobless

I think Covin still don't have a work up to this moment. It's been a year and a half since he graduated and fast approaching to 12 months since they passed the ECE licensure examination. Covin was a valedictorian in middle school. He's a consistent dean's lister except for just a semester. He almost got a Latin honor in college but he still don't have a job. Maybe he lacks virtues in terms of determination. 

I just realized one thing. It's not all about intelligence. You still need many factors in order to penetrate the corporate world. Not just good grades, neither recognitions and awards nor the school you came from. I was lucky I got a job several weeks after graduation. I maybe didn't start right after I got the congratulatory handshake from my interviewer but I'm already assured that I already will not struggle with finding a work. 

I know the feeling Covin's been going through. I, too, felt like the world's going to erupt anytime soon because of all the pressures you're facing. I'm just praying Covin won't give up and will soon find a job. Fingers crossed. :) KSGB! :-)

A Serious Talk With My Mom

I was sitting in a jeepney going to Ayala when the lowest rib on the left side of my rib cage suddenly hurt. I thought I'll not be able to rode off the jeep because of that sudden attack of pain. Good thing I was able to endure the pain until I got home.

When I entered the office and told the story to my officemate, she advised me to already go to the hospital. I  already arranged my schedule for that day to go to the hospital but I noticed that the pain was still bearable so I decided to postponed the plan of going to the hospital until weekend in case the pain is still there.

I got home and told my mom what I'm feeling and she offered a massage. I'm so happy because nothing is more soothing than mother's touch. Indeed it was, because the pain suddenly decreased. While she was massaging me, our talk suddenly became serious.

My mom knows that I'm gay. That I'm a one of the hopeless kind. Meaning, my gayness has reached the level that I already can't be converted to a kind of gay that's discreet and planning to have a family. My mother really worry about me and my sister's future. My sister is a lesbian. I know right! My family have all the types of sexual orientation. Enjoy! Hahaha. My sister is like me. A conservative type. She doesn't wear the typical lesbian's outfit but she also doesn't dress in a feminine way. I understand what my mom's feeling. I, too, had gone that way. Worrying about the way my sister and I were heading. She also pointed out that it's ok if she and my father will be forever there for us but she told me that that's impossible.

But as I already mentioned in one of my previous posts, I already pondered on some things and already planned for our future also. I know it's been a norm that a guy will marry a woman someday and they'll have a family but it's for a straight guy. I'm not straight so I'll not be able to do that. Hahaha. Finishing our conversation, I console her by telling her that don't worry about us. Happiness was not only obtained by having a family. I told her that I already have a plan for my self and for the rest of the family. She only sighed for an answer. I hope it's a sigh of relief. :-)

Am I The Only One Around Here

Am I the only gay guy around here who's still a virgin at the age of 21?

Who's still hasn't received his first romantic kiss yet?

Who doesn't have any account in all gay networking sites?

Who haven't been in gay bars or in clubs in Malate?

Who is not turned on my M2M videos?

Who still thinks we'll probably meet our future partner by bumping into him in the streets?

Who believes a hug is the sweetest gesture in the world?

Who still believes in fate?

Who still believes in destiny?

Who still believes in true love?

I hope not.

KSGB! :-)

The Modern Heroes

I am already on my way home yesterday when I saw this classmate of mine circa 2002-2003. Actually he's also my schoolmate when we're in college but due to distant relation between our courses, all we'd do when we see each other were just simple nods and smiles. Anyway, I've learned that he's already a teacher in a private high school in Malate Manila. 

I don't know to myself but I always ask for their compensation everytime I meet someone at my age. Not really that I'm just comparing it to my income but I also want to know if their salary is equal compared to my other friends working in the same field. Like for example, my best friend is also a teacher in a public school. Better case because I can compare now the difference between the compensation of teachers in public and private schools. Actually, I'm not seeking for actual figures when I asked him that but to my surprise, he really told me numbers. And I'm schocked with what I've learned.

I have a bigger salary than my best friend. Not that big difference though. And my best friend has a bigger salary than him. With the same difference between me and my bestfriend. I'm just wondering how can he cope up with that kind of monthly income. I know the responsibilities of being a worker because I have all of that right now. I've pondered last night with the fact that he's living his life working with a very stressful job having an above the minimum wage and here I am blogging during office hours.

All of us will agree that teachers should be considered as the heroes of the new generation. Imagine the hardships they're going through with their everyday life. My friend told me that he has a call time of 7am and he wasn't able to go home at 4pm because he's busy preparing grades for the children. And guess what, out of the 6 sections he's handling in Filipino subject, 36 children we'll be tagged as failed this first grading period. And I can see in his eyes that he's having a hard time thinking of some ways just to not do what he's about to do. Imagine that!

Yesterday's ride with him was an eye-opener for me. I think I'm just living my life to the fullest not thinking the consequences I'll be facing once emergencies come in my way. I'm already working for two years now and I'm earning an amount which I think is enough for me to contribute with our daily expenses in the house, give little luxuries to myself and save. But the third one's been flying into oblivion. I can't help myself spending money. Actually, I'm having a hard time controlling myself  using my credit card. But to be honest, majority of the transactions on my credit card bill were for food. So it decreases my guilt. Hahaha. Another one is, I'm only 21 and I'm hoping I'll be able to save in the near future. Lame excuse I know. LOL. Anyway, I'm very proud of my friends who did it into their chosen career. Even if it's Engineering, IT, Nursing, Med(still studying), Law(still studying), Accounting and Finance, Marketing, Business Management, even the already moms and dads out there taking care of their super cute kids and of course the Teachers that helped us in walking in our way to where we are right now. Love you all. :-)

Apple VS. The World

Apple just recently won a $1-billion battle against its biggest rivalry, Samsung. Apple claims that Samsung copied some of Apple products' techonology such as the "bounce-back" feature which explains the zooming just with a finger tap. Apple says that this technology was already patented by them meaning no other tech company can use the same techonology.

Apple's aim for the lawsuit is to block the distribution of some Samsung products in different countries around the globe. In return, Samsung also filed lawsuits against Apple Inc. Due to the heated war against the two gigantic techonology companies, a total of 50 lawsuits against each other were filed from 10 different countries. Read it in here. Shit just got serious.  

Seems like the world's really tuned in into this war of the century, even action star Bruce Willis wants to participate. Willis pointed out that even though you pay for a download, you don't technically own it. Bruce wants to give his huge music collection on to his children but under the iTunes agreement, he can't. Looks like Samsung found its friend already.

Due to its trend in the tech world, people got hook into the funny idea of Apple suing Samsung for copying their "rounded corners" design. Because of this, several funny pictures created by humorous people rolled into the internet. Hahaha.

and my most favorite of all. I laughed my heart out after I saw this. Hahaha.

Looks like people took Samsung side on this war. You, where side are thou?

Bullying At Its Finest

I'm lurking at PEx when I stumbled upon a thread about bullying. I googled some articles about bullying and below were the things I've found.

http://goodmenproject.com/good-feed-blog/another-teen-suicide-due-to-bullying/

http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/reading-between-the-headlines/201206/another-suicide-due-bullying

I was so sad when I read these news because I can relate. I've always felt like I'm bullied since ages ago. Everytime I walk in our street, kids will yell at me saying "Gay! Gay!" as if I'm denying it; boys will start looking at each other and strike a smile on their faces as I'm a big disappointment to their specie and people would look at me in a humiliating way obviously referring for my existence in what they call "abnormal world".

I don't understand why they do that. I don't think it brings any good to them. I'm not sure if they get satisfaction from what they're doing. In case they are, I believe they're a having a very bad habit. Believe it or not, every night I'm having my time talking to God, asking for strength, I always come to a point that I would pray to Him to eradicate homosexuality in the world in the future generations. Why? I'm hoping for it because I'm aware that the road the homos were walking is a not so easy one. Don't get me wrong, I love my colleagues in sexuality, even the gays in the future. Lol. It's just that, I love them so much that I don't want them to experience the hardships taken by the non-heterosexuals.

I know I'm a weakling when it comes to bullying. You can see me emotionless when I'm embarrassed by other people but when the time I got home and I'm already hugging my pillow, silent cries will fill the room. I almost lost my confidence because of that. I came to a point that I'll pray to Him to already get me out of this cruel world but when I think of the people I'll leave, I'll change my mind and I'll just wish to him more and more strength to continue my battle in this planet. I never planned to have suicide because it's wrong. Taking your own life as if you really own it? I don't think it's a good idea.

Right now, I'm working hard for my family and for myself. For the bullies to know that God exists and play the game of life fairly. I'm still humbled even though I can already tell them face to face that the kid they bullied years ago is already having a great time of his life. The sad truth that they will remain bullies for the rest of their lives will be my sweet revenge for them. "Mean" by Taylor Swift will be my song for them. :-)

Star Magic Ball 2012

I've always been fascinated scrutinizing (not physically though) gowns of women walking on the red carpet. I think being gay really influenced me a lot in terms of fashion. Actually, if I'm just good at drawing, I think I'll study another course and shift my path into fashion design but unfortunately, I'm not. Hahaha. Anyway, below are my Best and Worst Dressed in the Star Magic Ball 2012. It's still on-going while I'm writing this so sorry for some lacking info. I know we have different tastes when it comes to fashion but I really do believe that gays' instincts are somewhat connected to each other when fashion's the topic. I'll prove it by letting you see the pics below. :-)

My BEST DRESSED are as follows: 

The Sophisticated Ones

I don't know this girl but her name is Jerica Ejercito. 

Her gown was made by Rajo Laurel himself.

No wonder the dress is so stylish.

Devon Seron from PBB wore a classic black and white gown.

Simple but became elegant because of the crystals above her waist.

I don't like her purse though.

Here's Rica Peralejo wearing a black and white cocktail dress.

The belt accentuated the top part of the dress and

 its shine help the dress to have life.

I think the pearl necklaces were already not needed. 

A simple white necklace will do. 

The Fabulous Ones

    

 Scene burglar Bea Alonzo wore a feathery gown.

Nobody can resist looking at her "how-many-chicken-died" dress,
I believe so.

Confidence of Bea really helped her dress fantastically.

I don't think anybody can't cope up with dress except for her.

Kim Chiu nailed it again with her white gown  created by Edwin Tan 

bombarded with white stones.

The bottom part of the dress accentuate the refined skin of her.

The breast part of the dress would have been better 

if the gown's breast canal is wider.

That's just my opinion though. 

Nevertheless, the gown looks really good on her.

Maja Salvador proved that she's not a teenie weenie anymore 

when she ramped her gown.

I love how the part of the gown below her waist began to fly.

I also adore how her hair flows down to her gown 

which added spice to her look.

My Best Dressed of all is none other than Shaina Magdayao.

I don't like Shaina but when I saw this picture of hers,

 I know I'll not be biased.

This gown is to die for. Look how it emphasized her curves.

The backless effect of the gown will say to you that 

wait 'till you see entirety of me.

And it really did amazed me by the looks of her down below.

See how glamorous the gown? Hands up! Need I say more?

WORST DRESSED

I'll just give a one word description for each one. Haha!

Angelica Panganiban by Ellie Saab

PLAIN!

Bangs Garcia

TRASHY!

Julia Montes by Pepsi Herrera

HORSETAIL?

Kathryn Bernardo by Rhett Eala

CONSERVATIVE!
