work, work, woes

Every time I log out from I always feel relieved, I dunno why. I always seem to have a love-hate relationship with my job. At times I bicker about the pay, the work that I am doing and in that point in time I find myself thankful, grateful even that I, even in the midst of an economic crisis is still earning something for a living. The talk of the town seems to be who can submit their resignations first and who can land a better job and a fatter pay cheque and at the rate and the amount of work we are doing on the floor right now it crosses our stressed out and fried brains as often as the weather is changing here in Cebu (which right now could change without batting an eylash).

Although to pay cheque seems promising. Its that I am that lazy to fall in line, start all over again. Its like the first day inside the Big Brother house and as for the bitches are concerned, retracting the claws would be a must.

And so last night err... earlier this morning I had the same talk with an office mate and had agreed on one thing. The only thing that's keeping us from resigning is the schedule. That's one good thing and as far I'm concerned I'm still enjoying the company of the people I am working with. And that's what matters most for me.

the man in the mirror

I know its inevitable, however it all came too soon, too soon in fact I just read the info on my friends' facebook account. And now even listening to Mr. Jackson's "Man in the mirror" brings shivers down my spine.

I may not be that big of a fan however growing up to his music makes me know him through the lyrics and melodies that he introduced to the world all over.

I remember getting a call from a customer who had problems with his broadband connections and pleaded that I make a way (meaning: move heaven and earth for that matter!~ ditto!) that I restore it in a flash 'cause he can't wait to read everything about Mr. Jackson and the 411 about his sudden death and that made me think, he made an impact to everyone (considering that my caller sounded like he was 5o++ y.o. over the phone)

And now the whole world mourns for his loss.

Mr. Jackson, you will be missed however your music would remain.

the only MAN.

to the man who i grew up with.

the one who accepted me for what I am, never dared to question what I have become.

the one who has nurtured my immaturity and opened my eyes to the harsh reality that making money is not an easy job but rather one that requires blood sweat and tears,.. and err a million complaining.

he who I look up to despite some of his crazy ways.

the one who taught me that life and love is sometimes unfair and as hard as a rock.



happy father's day dad.

HOPEFULL.....

Well, I gambled again. Walked up like a man and straight to a date. Needless to say I again pranced around town, trying to keep to conversation up and running and both ways working, All together while keeping my heart on my sleeve and trying to avoid one or two disasters because truth be told I am rather clumsy at times... err... almost every single day of my existence. I went out and thought to myself If I never get out and put myself in the market well I'd get stale and never be sold.

And at this time I was thinking of fairy tales and mixing them up like a summer cocktail and ask myself.

What if the king and queen had invited the evil witch at sleeping beauty's christening?... would she be in the losers table?... and if she was would she still put a curse on the princess?

If Snow white's evil step mother had gone to one of those cosmetic surgeons in Beverly hills or at least had one of her mistresses in waiting inject botox every fortnight, would she still want to kill snow white?...

I cringed and laugh to myself. I know I'm a little twisted. And lonely. And I Hope he could read my mind, it would ask him... : if you need to be loved, here I am. read my mind....


I hope he does. And I am wishing.

No, still hanging on that faint glimmer of hope.

my anima mundi

Its been a while. It has been, and i think its time to move on. I need a rehab, i need to unload all the excess baggage i have and start a new, not that i will be loading new ones but just taking everything in stride. i just want to run away from it all.

how hard is it to wake up with someone who treasures and likes you as you are, not minding the way you look when you wake up in the morning or the way you snore at night?... I mean that's not a herculean task at hand.

how hard can it be to find a soul mate?...

Or maybe I have met him and i just did not notice.

hahaay!...

Its been two weeks from my Bantayan trip and still I haven't jotted down an entry devoted to that trip. Haay! Time flies so fast. Wish I was still there. The beach, the sun not to mention the crowd (well it could be me all along, it could be their first time to see somebody pretty healthy wearing hot pants on a cool Saturday evening, tanned and all).

Anxious as I was because unfortunately it was my first trip to Bantayan. I was eager to end the shift, take the 1st bus to Hagnaya, pray that there will be enough sun for my tan, for the photo shoot that would last the entire trip (including the downtime and grammatically erroneous signboards c/o the watchful eyes of chitru credo) and for the trip via the barge back to the main island.

And here I am now. Home, bored, reminiscing about the whole trip, looking at the photos shot in that short duration of time. Wishing I had time and money to go back. Someday, I will and that time I'll be with somebody.... I'll leave it blank for now... My prince lost its way to me.. pweh!

hahaay!

tan, taran... TAN!!!!

Since I had a pretty boring summer last year, I decided to squeeze every bit of my summer this time. If in case you did not know last year I was spent my summer at home. Sleeping. Loser!... haha!

But now I am determined to make most of it. And I mean it. I know my life's a bore and I get excited easily so I decided to take the road not taken and had a blast in Badian (although we did not go to Kawasan, either nobody was interested in trekking or that we were just lazy and wanted booze for brunch). And as of right now I had just finished unpacking my stuff from my latest weekend getaway.

Since we were at the beach I wanted to have a tan, so i laid down on the beach getting all the sun i can and waited, waited, and waited however everybody was looking for me because we were already drinking at 9 in the morning so i got inside the cottage we were renting and gave in. So I thought that I could get some more after lunch--- I was wrong. Unfortunately the weather was not cooperating and I ended up drenched in the rain. boOhoO!

So to sum it all up i got tan but not that much. No worries because the week after next I'll be in Bantayan for more sun, fun and everything in between.

I'm still waiting for the photos to be uploaded.

hope y'all are enjoying your summer. And don't forget sunscreen!!!....Ü
