THE MEN IN MY LIFE

Despite the blatant lack of that ONE man in my life, I have to say that I’ve been pretty blessed with the men that surround me everyday. This was my epiphany last night. So this morning, I would like to celebrate these men who are slowly restoring my faith in the non-scumness of their gender.

My family;

1. My daddy

who, apparently, has been getting computer lessons from my sister and has been building his “papa” folder on itunes on his own. Last Sunday, I checked what my pop had on his playlist. And there, hidden amidst the expected gypsy kings and Santana collection, was the makabagbagdaming

No no no no
Don’t phunk with my heart

Apparently, my daddy is big big fan of this black eyed peas hit.

2. Bobby

Why I don’t watch more of his gigs is a mystery to me. Ahhhh… maybe it has something to do with the fact that I don’t have a car noh?

Anyhoo, he’s really really good. And he sings “Mary had a little lamb” with so much soul it makes me want to erase the kiddie version from the memory of the world.

3. Pats

I’ve always thought that he was the most generous among us cos he always brings home food and stuff for us.

When I got home the other night at 2 in the morning, I found his key to our front door resting in the keyhole of our front door. You know, to make it easier for the thieves to rob us. That’s how generous he is eh.

4. Michael

Who wakes up in the middle of the night to make kumut pats. Who will greet me with the biggest smile on his face everytime I go home. He’s really an angel. And he just turned 24 yesterday.

God I love him so much.

My chums; (in alphabetical order)

1. Adi

If I had to pick a favorite – he would be it. I have to say, his sarcastic funnyness, combined with impeccable, adorable delivery, never fails to bring the house down! Well, mine and tracy’s houses anyway.

I read somewhere one time that you know you’re with a real friend when you can spend a long time with them without saying a word and leave feeling like you’ve just had the best conversation of your life.

Adi is one of the few peeps that make me feel that way.

2. Bachii

For helping me appreciate the beauty in normalcy.
For making me realize that fun times aren’t lost in systems analysts who make the most dependable friends.
And, most importantly,
For introducing curry to my eggs.

I will be perpetually grateful.

3. Drach

Who, I just realized yesterday, I can rely on for serious discussions about life and such at odd times. And who expands my vocabulary through his random usage of big words like verisimilitude and picaresque.

4. Leoy

Who insists on calling me at the busiest of hours to make me listen to songs that he “composed.” Who gives the best mind-blowing lightshows on earth. Who will always be, despite my repeated public denial, my handsomest friend.

5. Niv

Who is probably the most grounded man I know and who has the amazing gift of making it seem that happiness can be so effortlessly achieved.

Miscellaneous;

1. My boss who is my very own dark angel.
2. My assistant who is the newest soul on the block.
3. Ryan E. – hahaahahahahahaahahahahahhahaah! No seriously, ryan e. just for being so fucking gorgeous.

Blame it on the vowel

MUSH ALERT!!!
(pasensya na. tao lang)


The problem with the vowel is that it forces you into realizations that beat self-delusion to a pulp. And so you find yourself alone in the living room, having a conversation with a doogie on a monday night.

I've pretty much accepted the possiblity that i will probably end up alone. I'm really okay na with that.

But what i've come to realize on that blasted monday night is that no matter how equipped i am to handle the bigger 'stuff', it's really the small things that break me.

- Like not having someone to watch a stupid movie with because they have no other choice but to keep me company.

- Or not having someone to lounge around the house with on a rainy sunday afternoon.

- Or those silly private jokes that no one else understands and appreciates.

- Or someone whose voice suddenly springs to life when they get your call at 3 in the morning just to say hi.

- Or text messages that mean nothing ang everything at the same time.

Yan. The small things. Silent but deadly.

hi

it's 4am and im still here with no sign of work ending really soon. which means one of two things;

1. i dont have time na talaga to go home so i will have to either go to jennis or 719 to take a quick nap before i have to be back here at 9 tomorrow. ay, later pala. 719 is closer but jenni's is priority because she has a heater. it really depends right now on the person who's gonna drop me off.

this also means that pats will have to drop off my clothes tomorrow. ay, later pala.

hassle pare.

2. Or - i really wont leave nalang this office talaga and just go to the gym to take a bath tomorrow. ay, later pala.

But really as of this point, i just really want to make u.u. naman.

GOD SARAP! 

I am a gaya-gaya :-)

***************************************************************************

it's really up to you.

oooh.. me too. me too.

You are Coraline! You are quirky, strange, and
charming. Some people may find you a little
alarming and not always get you... But they can
piss off, right? You are the kind of person who
always needs to be entertained, otherwise you
get uncomfortable. You probably still enjoy
everything you did when you were little, such
as childrens books and Disney movies. Youre fun
to be around and are usually the life of the
party.

Which Trainspotting Character Are You?

LSS

Moon River, wider than a mile,
I'm crossing you in style some day.
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you're going I'm going your way.
Two drifters off to see the world.
There's such a lot of world to see.
We're after the same rainbow's end--
waiting 'round the bend,
my huckleberry friend,
Moon River and me.

Take the quiz: "Which Dead Rock Star Are You?"

Jeff Buckley
You are Jeff Buckley! You're influential to many young and old, and very talented. You have charisma and grace that sets you a part from many. You are beautiful! Oh, he died in 1997 from a drug-induced drowning in the Mississippi River.

my newest mantra

okay its not exactly new. i've said it before but i never got around to practicing it. but yesterday i realized after i had two bites of that stupid honey cake after snarfing an entire bag of flaming hot cheetos that most of the stuff i ingest aint worth ingesting at all.

so, from this day on, as God is my witness, i promise to never again, for as long as i can help it, eat mediocre food and that every pound and every inch that i gain will be worth gaining.

WHAT IS NOT WORTH EATING A LOT OF IS NOT WORTH EATING AT ALL!
