so much for bon voyage
Friday, October 28, 2005
this morning is my nth time to be late, again due to the undeniably huge distance between batangas and where i work in. it's becoming increasingly ridiculous to be doing what i'm doing everyday: commuting back and forth, here to there, vice versa.
at first i thought i finally got the hang of it after more than a month of doing it and then... this. i really need to find some place closer to live in: longer sleeping hours, no event of standing inside a moving vehicle for hours, no chance of getting stranded for five hours, more time to be with friends. but i'll definitely prefer to stay at home if it wasn't so d*mn far from work: i'll miss my family, the scrumptious breakfast and dinner, hot shower, everything.

smallville nostalgia and the last week
Tuesday, October 25, 2005
finally, i got to spend another weekend without running off to somewhere. a first this month, i think. i got to be a couch potato again with my mom, ej and my boyfriend kel watching a smallville season four marathon (minimum of 6 hours per day).
i actually missed bumming around. and i realized i've forgotten how entertaining smallville is. brings me back to my smallville fanatic days; owning every episode on cd for two seasons; naming my dependable laptop 'clark'; my being a devoted clark-lana shipper, wallpapers and all. i kind of miss those days. i'd like to thank my officemate dj for lending me his cds and for filling my unconscious desire for a superman fix. ;)
anyways, this is my last week on training. surely, time flies. although i'm excited this brain-draining endeavor is about over, i'm kinda sad too because despite all the 'comments' i've received from forgettable persons, i'm going to miss some of the guys here. i'd miss sharing all oxygen and inhaling all the CO2 exhaled by everyone as all 16 of us are confined in one room for 6 weeks. i'd miss all the fun times, 'malling' and all the laughter. it's been almost two months since i met these people and i have been with them all the time since. it's kind of sad too think that we might not be all in the same project after this. time for a farewell outing.
my birthday is fast approaching and i'd like to inform you all that i'm receiving birthday gifts as early as now. hehe. see yah! =)

it's in the stars
Monday, October 24, 2005
i came across an email with all the characteristics of people, male and female, under an astological sign and i found it interestingly accurate. at least to my psyche. but it doesn't mean i believe in them or anything.
my birthday is this november 1st. yep, it's next week and that only means that i am a scorpio. it's funny because most of the things i perceived myself to be is stated in the said email. i got my part of the list and i'll paste it here to give you an idea.
SCORPIO WOMAN
A simple woman who always show what kind of a moods she is in. You can tell
right way if she up set, or if she is flirting with you. She displays
herself with her act much more than trying to say it for it's in her
character.
A Scorpio woman has her own mysterious personality. She is confident and
deep down inside she is quite proud of herself. She hates to think she is
borne a woman and so limiting her with a certain social acceptable rules.
She is a real woman and despite her innocent and childish looks, she has a
spirit of free soul. Many men will make mistake if they think she is a good
follower, they are wrong.
She thinks being a plain simple housewife is boring. She likes to have
power and control over other people, but this will be only her secret, so
you will only see a cute woman. Every things she does will look good, and
she has all the woman's trick you can think of. She can manipulate men
without they knowing it.
If you think she going to do everything you say because she loves you, then
you will be disappointed. She could be a little tomboyish and she can
understand you by just looking in your eyes. You may say sweet words which
could sweep any woman, but not with the Scorpio woman. She will use her
X-ray eyes reading your thought of what you just said or what you are going
to say.. She always smile and she can really hide her feeling.
She will constantly show you that she loves freedom.. If she has freedom,
she will not leave you, but will even love you more. If she wants
something, she will do everything to get it. She has her own sixth sense of
people and you can feel that energy feed back when you around her. She
likes a man who can earn her respect, and she will also respect and feel
proud of that man. A man with power over her should not threat or challenge
her confident. She likes to have a good looking , strong and healthy man
especially if she start to compare with her friends' boyfriends. It is a
plus if he hold a degree or a good career.
She is a hot lady. She likes heavy music. She either loves or hates, there
are no "fond of", or "like" for her. Love has no "may be", or "perhaps". If
she is real mad, she will trash and throw things. Her wind storm can sweep
all her dishes and you could get accidentally hit on your head for this
matter. Be calm, it is just your grand mother favorite china for she has
good quality as much as her bad tempered.
Sometimes she shows her weakness, but it won't be long. She will put
herself together and back to be that hot chili again. If she loves you, it
will be no matter what other people may say. Her relationship will be more
important than what is right or wrong. Because of this reason, you may know
some Scorpio woman become a second wife, a mistress.
She is spoil, but she allows her love one to over power her. Dating this
woman, you should not keep old love letters in your pocket or in your
house. It could be a love letter 2 years ago, but never mind she will argue
about this since this is a big deal for a suspicious woman. Remember she
has a temper of the shrew.
If you play a cold war with her, she will treat you likewise and double it.
If you stood her up once, she will stood you up 2-3 times. She is quite
fair in justice, so she can accept your apologies as much as she can
pretend to accept things for now and wait for a pay back revenge in the
future. If you are nice to hear, she will double that to you as well. A
real fair woman.
She likes to make and spent money. She likes to have fame and reputations,
and never let herself broke and have no name at the same time. She is too
proud and will not accept status of being "Poor". She loves to have face,
so if you are a manager with small salary, she will be proud more than more
money being a truck driver. She hates to think and she can not stand a
feeling of being a "Nobody".
If you like her, play a little hard to get. This will excite her a bit.
When you go out on a date, set your schedule, but do not let she knows that
you have planned this for weeks. Always go to pick her up on time or better
to go 5-10 minutes early.
*if anyone agrees with me that apart of this narration pertains to me please say AMEN!

can't have it all
Saturday, October 15, 2005
remember when i told you i'm going to do better in programming these following weeks? well, i did! for 3 weeks! and i have a new pen as my prize for that. thank god i'm catching up.
but then again, as my title suggests, one can really not have it all. as i improve in programming, my respect for and willingness to befriend some of the people i work with however are beginning to falter. i have been getting lots of personal jokes from my 'funny' work fellows lately and most of them are about my weight. i'm not being hypersensitive about it, but i guess some people need still to be educated on what the words 'you could hurt a person's feelings' actually meant. even music couldn't soothe my nerves now.
i am fat. so what? would it make a difference if i were skinnier? would i be much smarter? the only difference i think is that people would treat me differently if i were skinny. same old superficial world.

so what's new?
Wednesday, October 5, 2005
lemme see. here i'm going to impart some of the pinakamababaw updates on my life.
first, i got my super long and curly-ended hair cut. yep, i'm no longer a goldilocks. instead, my hair length's now a bit above my shoulder. wanna see?
and that's the worse version of my new haircut. if you have violent reactions against my decision to cut my hair, let me know. i'd love to hear echoes of my own violent reaction. :D
what else? well, i am now also a proud owner of one of the greatest luxury item ever known to mankind. okay, i'm exaggerating. but seriously, it cost me way too much. but i'd say it's worth every penny.
need a clue to know what it is? here's three clues; 1) i mentioned about dreaming of having it in my previous posts, 2) it's the reason i have to many recent pics of almost everything and everyone and 3) take a look at this:
i know you got it already. anyways, just don't tell the others okay? hehe. til here. i need to sleep already. :D

i live. i learn.
brace yourselves. this is how i look like every morning.
ABAP programming is proving to be more and more nerve-wracking for me and that reeks. i don't want to get fired. so i'm promising myself over and over that i'd do real better in the coming weeks, by hook or by crook. it's not like i have a choice or anything.
anyways, i'm still not regretting having the job that i have now. i enjoy everyday of it (except for the exam and seatwork parts). the working environment is great all in all. too many perks. too many great people to be friends with.
i've been contemplating (again) this time on the essence of learning; everything i now know, who taught me and the things i'd like to learn in the future...
- my parents and my lola have taught me most of the things i know. most important of it all is the greatness of having the love of a family.
- in 5th grade i learned my first swear words courtesy of my friend mervin. with that i also started to appreciate the eraserheads' kwela music.
- in early highschool i discovered the art of day dreaming with my bestfriend and dear cousin ate tin. years after that we proved that dreams do come true and that boy bands don't last.
- another friend i'd like to hide by the name harvey taught me the wonders of rock music and video games. also, i came to know heartbreak and the art of letting go.
- in college, i learned to be honest with myself through loida. also, my other bestfriend mark taught me that friendship can be even better than love at times.
- kel taught me how to appreciate the littlest things in life. and whenever i lose it, he teaches me how to get real. moreover, being with kel taught me that there is such a thing as fate and unpretentious love.
all in all i know 20 years of life is not enough. i still have much to learn and much more to discover. so right now, i will not complain if i still have to learn programming. there are alot of things much harder than that. ;)
