Sour mood

I am in a sour mood because
I realized that we have so many f***in’ bills to pay
Our f***in’ combined salary is not enough.

I have so many f***in’ task that I may as well sleep here in the office.

Grr!!!

Resolutions

Here I am again struggling with my resolutions.

Caffeine-free life – arg! how am I suppose to do this? Shit! the mere thought of NOT drinking makes me WANT to drink.
Study technical stuff – I’m suppose to be studying now, but what am I doing? blogging like there is no tomorrow.
Arrange Wedding Photos – no energy to do it. Can you help me arrange it?

I know I should do it but I’m NOT doing it. Why? why? why?

Darn! I badly want to eat Snickers.

No denying that I’m a year older

Late posting. The pesky husband won’t sleep and its quite lonely sleeping alone so I decided to finally blog this.

– July 9 –

Woke up quite early because our intercom was buzzing. I was really sleepy at that time, and for the life of me couldn’t understand what he was saying. I was suppose to say “please let him come up” but hell, I couldn’t recall how to speak it in tagalog. I was staring into space for more than 5 minutes until Yiek broke my reverie. I was soo slow in responding, i didn’t even know which button to press so I can speak to the intercom.

I’m always like this when I’m jarred from my precious sleep. The whole morning and afternoon I was again sleepy!

My mother was now busy cooking for my “little” party that night. Yiek and I cleaned the house. I swept the floor, folded all dirty clothes and arrange our things. Yiek, on the hand cleaned the cr (Never would I dare to do this) and mopped the floor.

We are really bad children (?), Mama did all the tasks herself. My sister was watching Lost the whole day, she wouldn’t help because her finger daw got cut by the knife. Duh!

Yiek on the other hand was busy staring at the MIRC. I really don’t understand this addiction, I can’t understand what is soo exciting about it. Basically, he checks the speed of our internet every 5 minutes. He checks who has downloaded his files, checks the speed of his upload and download, checks downloader’s queue and he can go on like this 24/7. I wish he’d give me more attention than that fucking IRC. (KSP lang pala hehehe)

I on the other hand, sleeped for 1 hour. Occasionally I would help mama in the kitchen. Better than my sister who did nothing at all, I felt like strangling her for being such a lazy gob.

The visitors arrived at 7 and we ate, drank and talked. We didn’t have enough chairs so the boys were just standing while drinking red horse. The girls on other hand as usual tsismissed. The mango float(the only thing I made) was a hit! Wanna make me one for you?

Georgia, Ria and Arlene gave me a baby book for the sole purpose of torturing me. You could see my mama’s face getting really excited about it. Oh well! she will have t o wait for a few more years but my oh my the pressure is building up. Do you really need to have a baby ASAP after marriage. Sigh!

ADHD

I couldn’t get enough of Harry Potter so today I feigned having dysmenorhia. And read I did, from morning to late afternoon only occasionally standing up for a bathroom break, lunch and snacks. ’twas a very fast paced novel and not a boring moment in between. I was even controlling myself to read slowly.

My ADHD is manifesting again. You don’t believe me?
Well, here is proof.

(All in my head…)

“Hmm..look at the stack of dishes. I must wash those.”

After a few minutes of washing….

“Hmm…I should have washed our underwear first so I could save time,
if I wash it first, then immerse it in Downy, then I could go back on
washing dishes, it requires after all (as what the label says) 12 minutes for
it to actually soften the fabric…”

Leaving the unwashed dishes to go wash the laundry….

“Hmm… I haven’t had my cup of coffe yet..Maybe I should make one.. yes I should make one”

Looking at the monitor…

“Blasted internet, how am I suppose to blog…let me check”

After typing –ipconfig /renew– on the cmd line…

“Still not working..eh? Opps, I should begin washing the laundry”

While washing the laundry..

“I should check my phone…”

After reading and replying georgia’s txt, I’m again back at the laundry room

“Oh! right. I should ask georgia where she is. I should get my grocery. I badly need those panty shield”

Then, I’m back in the laundry again,

wishy..wash..and seeing that georgia has replied. I stopped wishy washing
and txted Mau.

Looking at the coffee maker..

“oh! right I should make coffee. The earlier the better so I can still sleep tonite”

After making the coffee, I’m again(?) back in the laundry area.

In the course of washing the clothes,

“Darn! the fabric softener is with the other grocery bag that georgia mistakenly took.
I should just submerge these clothes and wait until I get that other grocery bag”

While txting again, I glance at the pile of unwashed dishes

I again went back to washing them,

“I should blog this…”

Stops for a while to turn off Yiek’s PC and turn on mine.

Pours coffee and here I am blogging…

Oh! I should tell you in the middle of writing these, I glanced at my cellphone and remembered
that I should txt Yiek to go to Guia’s condo to obtain the grocery.

The dishes… still unwashed hehehe. Why can’t I concentrate in just one task?

Buhok ko

I haven’t uploaded my birthday pics yet so the to be cont. entry is still on draft mode.

Yesterday, I received the newest Harry Potter ebook. It took every ounce of me to resist the temptation. “Wait for Georgia’s hard bound book” was my mantra. Good thing, I was quite busy with our documents. An hour before my time out, I found myself reading the blasted book. It took me quite a long time to remember the 5th book, this short term memory is getting irritating. I read Book 5’s summary but some of its detail escapes me. oh well! I just hope I can still remember parts of it.

Ria, Georgia and Arlene gave me a piandre gift certificate. I was already getting bored with my hairstyle so there I gathered my guts to have my precious hair styled.

I was 10 minutes late with my appointment, because I had the urge to eat Bread Talk’s Hot Chix (Pork Floss) and as usual got lost on the way to the salon.

The service was good. Why good? Because the stylist and blow dryer girl (for lack of words to describe) constanly gave me complimemts. How my hair was soo naturally straight, how I nice and shiny my hair was. hehehehe. Syempre, gustong gusto kung marinig ‘yun.

artistic shot (daw!) hehehe

I went home discovering that silly me forgot to turn the ref. back on last sunday morning. Wah! 500 Php+ worth of meat down the drain.

Guess what I did after dinner, reading the blasted book. Hay! temptation talaga mahirap i-resist hehehe.

Addiction

You are my addiction
Your bitter taste I always long for
Mornings seem bleak without you

Over and over again,
I’ve been scolded
for drinking too much of you

Countless times,
I’ve tried shunning you away
But you had the last laugh
Miss you I would

My thirst you always quench
My boredom you always chase away

Birthday Ole!

– July 7 –

I took a cab to the airport, occasionally mumbling yes and no to the very talkative driver. I wasn’t listening, but I guess he needed someone to talk to. Since I was 1 1/2 hours early, I went to PAL’s office to have my miles credited. The security guard was also very talkative and would engage me in all sort of topics. Boy! people are really talkative these days. He even accessed my mabuhay miles profile and greeted me a Happy Birthday.

Stupid me, mistakenly went to the departure area so I had to walk quite a few kilometers (exag.). Taxis are expensive here, the regular airport taxi charges 420 (ok lang siya?). We were too tired to look for a regular metered taxi so we agreed in paying 300.

Finally, I get to eat Cebu’s lechon. No sarsa needed for this one. I was not feeling so well so I slept early.

– July 8 –

What day is this? oh yeah! it’s the day that I would climb up the age ladder. Sheez, I’m starting to drag birthdays because it constantly reminds me that I’m just not getting any younger.

My phone was conking again. Darn! this phone. I have to constanly reset at least once a day, so I can receive messages again. After resetting, there was barrage of message, all greeting me happy birtday.

My mama was nagging me to wake up as we have to pick my sister up in her dorm. Sheez, it was only 8:00.

After much prodding, I finally woke up @ 8:45 (my usual time hehehe). Took a quick bath and breakfast (it sure is nice to wake up with food in the table). Yiek greeted me a sleepy happy birthday.

I was really sleepy, so I tried to catch some ZZzzz in the mrt, jeep and sikad2x. I must have looked so weird hehehe.

We arrive at around 10:15. Since I was a “girl”, I was allowed to come up to their dorm. I am really interested in this place. Why? Because oh boy you can see a lot of weird people here and marami daw dito na mga multo. You know naman that I’m interested in paranormal activities.

The “weirdo” people there:
1) Students/reviewers who studies from dusk ’til dawn. Sleep isn’t in their vocabulary.
2) Students/reviewers who cry in the middle of the night.
3) Anonymous Students/reviewers who places Day 1-Day 7 Bible Saying on every room’s door for that certain floor.
4) A certain student who mumble’s aristotle theories and one time ran across UST’s field with my sister’s bestfriend running after her.

My sister says that a lot of the reviewers there gets desperate when they get the board exam’s result, desperate enough to commit suicide.

Now this is is not urban legend. The stories :

1) A reviewer failed the CPA’s exam, so she locked herself in her closet, texted her roommate to locked her closet as she’s in the province. The roommate not knowing the girl was there, locked the closet without looking what’s inside. Th girl’s body was discovered days later after the maintenance guy looked for the source of the foul odor. This room was vacated thrice in the span of 1 month. Bakit kaya?
2) After finding out that her name was not on the passer’s list, she went home to her province. Depressed because her parent’s disowned her, she committed suicide. Days later, her friends received news that there was a mistake and she passed after all. Too late! Dormer’s say that her soul can still be seen in the dorm.

My sister also saw a man’s foot, her bestfriend saw hands. My mama gave them holy water. So if they see something strange, hopefully a sprinkle of mineral water would ward off the ghosts hehehe.

I’m off topic here hehehe. Anyways, we ate lunch at shakey’s and went to tutuban to do some shopping. I was again sleeping on the jeep hehehe. Why am I so groggy anyway?

Went home and ate homecooked meal which
I missed so much. Yiek surprised me by
giving me this –>

Ria also surprised me by making an entry starring Sintclaire: ang pinakamagandang hayop sa balat ng lupa (Blog ko to! walang a-angal hehehe). Very heartwarming. Thanks Ri! Click here.

All in all it was a great birthday but the celebration hasn’t started yet, more on the next entry.

Every damn morning

8:00 AM: Cellphone alarm rings…

I press the snooze button.

8:06 AM: Alarms rings again…

I press again(?) the snooze button, after realizing that I’m still sleepy, I unlock the phone (snooze is disabled) and I set the alarm time @ 8:20. Zzzzzz…

8:20 AM: Alarm rings…

I press the snooze button.

8:26 AM: Alarm rings again..

I press again(?) the snooze button, after realizing that I’m still sleepy, I unlock the phone (snooze is disabled) and I set the alarm time @ 8:40. Zzzzzz…

8:40 AM: Alarm rings…

Turns the snooze to off. 5 minutes..5 minutes…5 minutes more..always peeking at our wall clock.

8:45 AM:

Groggily wake up, and tell “the husband”: I’m sorry I wasn’t able to wake-up. Pandesal for breakfast?
Husband sleepily nods.
“What do you want, peanut butter or chiz wiz?”

Toast the pandesal, put on husband’s selected condiment(?). Heats water and “kutaw” swiss miss.

Take a bath for 5 minutes, apply lotion, sunblock. Look at the closet and complain that I have nothing to wear. Iron the selected clothes.

Wake the husband up, constanly grumbling “I’m going to be late”. Look for cellphone, disarrange all things while looking for my keys.

Peek at wall clock, damn! 9:10. Kisses husband goodbye, bolts out of the door.

Sheez, I wonder I’m doing this every damn morning!!!

Monday night gig

It’s lunch time, so blog muna .

For almost two weeks, I didn’t cook dinner at home. Thanks to Joel, who was very generous with his $20 dinner allowance. Parang naubos na yata namin lahat ng resto’s sa GB. Just when I was getting used to it, uwi na si Joel sa Japan, now I have to cook dinner again (huhuhuhu). I have to rack my brain on what dish to cook, eh I only know 5 dishes. Buti na lang pupunta mama ko dito bukas, miss na daw kasi nya ako (naks!), so masarap na naman dinner namin. Yipee!

Our japanese, the yummy Fukunishi, fell in love with Nina’s voice. Since may gig siya sa bagaberde, sinamahan namin siya last Monday. Para siyang bata, star struck na star struck. Mega picture siya sa phone cam niya, at kitang kita mo sa mukha niya na nabibighani siya sa boses, parang di na nga pumipikit.Nung natapos na yung gig, para siyang nagpanic na pumunta ‘don sa dressing room para magpa-picture at magpa-sign sa kayang nabili na dvd. Sabi ‘nya, “it was great” yung mukha nya parang patungong mago-orgasm nyeheheh. Kami din na star struck dahil ang ganda talaga ng kanyang boses, effortless kung baga. Pero mas na starstruck ata ako kay Nyoy Volante, husky, malamig at super sexy ang boses nya huwag mo na lang tingnan yung mukha at height nya. Parang ang sarap nya anuhin… hehehe, sasapakin na akong ng asawa ko nito.

Yung details, si Ria na ang magkwe-kwento (mas magaling kasi siya, post ko yung link pagna-blog na nya) don nyo na lang din tingnan yung pictures. Tamad kasi akong mag-upload a photobucket.

Mixed Emotions

I can’t concentrate! My head is spinning, ayan nag starbucks mocha frappucino pa kasi.

I was promoted to SDE2, should I be happy? Errr…the salary difference from SDE1 is quite negligible. I’m starting to love my project kasi new technology, malaki ang aking role (I’m handling 1 person, pero kawawa siya na ako ang naging leader nya hehehe), the project is semi-from scratch and involve ako sa whole SDLC. Kaya lang nga minsan nakakawala ng gana dahil ang LIIT ng sweldo, kulang na pangbayad sa mga luho ko. So for now, I’m psyching myself for a technical upgrade. So far, successful naman konti. Tingan mo na-enjoy kung bumasa ng techie na book
