Okaay, so to my 14 readers (well I’m not even sure if all of you really read this), I’m alive and drowning in reading materials. I don’t even know which one to pick up first.
So I went on a book-buying frenzy last week because there were several book sales around the metro and I got copies of 2 hardbound David Sedaris books (Me Talk Pretty One Day and Dress Your Family In...

Stolen from Mariel’s FB. It’s a good read and awfully makes so much sense.

I should’ve written yesterday but was too numb to do so. I came home Friday with bad news. I was told my physical exam results were back and that I can’t report for work unless I can present a fit to work notice. It’s my x-ray. Apparently, they saw the same thing they saw 5 years ago. It was -possible Koch’s infection of unknown origin- that’s what I read from the...
1. This survey gets a little personal; can you handle it? ~ oo naman. 2. If you married the last person you texted, what would your last name be? ~ twitter. haha. 3. Were you happy when you woke up today? ~ hindi gaano kase absent ako kagabi. 4. When were you on the phone last? And with who? ~ tatay ko kanina, para sabihin na nandito nako 5.What is the last thing someone bought you? ~ starbucks...

WOW. So the fangirl in me came out again.. I love this tribute.. This is probably the best one any other David fan has come up with..*melts* Thank you MichelinMarie for posting! Notice how he gets all emotional in the end.. He made me cry! I love Josh Groban but I like D’s version better (beacuse I’m biased.. haha). But seriously, it’s a beautiful song and I’m glad he...
See, I’m really a failure at keeping this updated. I remember keeping a daily journal when I was younger that I’d lugged around, even in school for when the lectures get boring and I had loads of scribble time. Now I think it’s just pure laziness that I don’t write as often. I dunno, when I think of something and decide to blog about it (by the time I reach the computer to...

I think people should really dump their friendster accounts (i haven’t updated mine in months), jump on the facebook bandwagon and start twittering. Seriously.
To the 3 people reading my blog.. i’m back. lol � There’s been so many things that have happened and I don’t know where to begin.. Guess I’ll just address things as they come up. First off, I still owe Lara the David Cook (side) of my concert ramblings. Sorry Ube, been so swamped I barely have time to sit down and actually compose. But I will get to that this weekend,...

I know this is past due but I’ll tell you about it anyways.
It was the same night of my 10th high school reunion and though I was ready for former high school friends to publicly disown me, I went and saw the two Davids in what many will call the concert of the year. Originally, the reunion was scheduled from 1pm-6pm and a week before the concert it was changed to an evening cocktail...
I just wanted to share this short story that I read in Highschool in Mr. Alex Vista’s Literature class. It just seemed fitting to post it here today, Mother’s Day, so that we can all remember the one person that gave us life —our Moms, Mamas, Nanays. Thank you mom for all the love and patience and for the trust each time you leave the decision up to me. I would not be where I am...

Today was the first time I visited the Philippine Stock Exchange in Makati. It was a little tour that a group of around 20 people attended, including our boss, Michael Bouley. Benta pa, we had to take a cab from RCBC to PSE because it was raining and so we had to go in batches of 4. Apparently, most of us left our things in the office, not anticipating taking a cab, I had around 27 pesos in my...
surprisingly, i opened my inbox and found a couple of blog entries being re-posted (some are even from a few years back).. i wonder if that was the result of me ticking the checkbox to “cross-post to blogger” the other day when i published one of the stories i wrote in 2002. that means my blog will have duplicates as well as my facebook and my wordpress. it’s crazy.
Anyhow.. i...

Written June 2002. There was something about her eyes or maybe the way she smiled that made her captivating. I cannot explain why or how or even where she came from. All I know was that somehow she was there. I had not seen her before, had never heard her voice, but there was some undeniable force drawing my eyes to hers. Time seemed to stop while I stared into her deep, deep blue eyes that were...
My 4-year old dalmatian hasn’t been feeling too well since yesterday and I am bringing him to the vet in a while (I’m just waiting for my dad). It’s a good thing he hasn’t lost his appetite yet but I can’t help but worry because he seems lethargic and is not as active as the other dogs.
I’ve already lost a puppy last year due to an acute viral infection that...

Who thinks that the Bachelor Series is a lame excuse for entertainment?
(kyela raises both arms and waves them in the air)
Well, okay used to watch some random episodes when I’m bored and there’s nothing else to watch. Stupidity is sort of entertaining sometimes. I don’t remember what seasons I was able to watch but just the thought that the goal is to make the Bachelor fall...
thinking that i only have 3 work days this week is sweet. =) still not sure what i’ll do on my birthday, but anyhow, just the fact that i get to skip work and start the weekend 2 days early is treat enough for me.
and so i found a bootleg of You Changed My Life a couple days ago (courtesy of Limwire pro 5.0). 30 minutes into the movie and i was more than happy to let go of my headset and...
I watched In Her Shoes last night and I really liked this poem Maggie (Cameron Diaz) read at her sister’s (Toni Collette) wedding.
i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my...
And so I watched Stop-Loss yesterday even when I was supposed to be studying 63.. It was after 3 chapters that I decided to put the book down and take a break. And by break I meant movie break. haha.
It’s been a while since I enjoyed a war movie. Guess 80% accounted for the fact that the cast was eye-candy, even Abbie Cornish Ü HAHA. But I honestly liked the simplicity and how the film took...

Been feeling really lazy today that I, once again, decided to procrastinate on my review. I just have this really bad case of dysmenorrhea and it’s hard to concentrate, much less momorize a ton of State Securities Laws.
Can’t help but feel jealous of everyone who doesn’t have to go through the same crap again. But then again, the fact that it is a constant red flag of how badly...
March/April 2009Last year had more than its share of vertigo-inducing headlines: major banks suddenly disappearing, the Dow plunging day after day, and billion-dollar bailouts failing to make a dent in the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression.Already, the Wall Street way of life seems to have gone the way of the dodo. An entire country—are you reading this, Iceland?—went belly up...
There are friends that I truly consider to be real friends that I may not talk to on a regular basis but I know that if I need them they’re there and vice versa. Its a good idea to do a little spring cleaning every once in awhile and evaluate friendships that you’ve cultivated. If the friendship isn’t mutually beneficial, or you spend most of your time tip-toeing around to not...
I’ll be off to work in a few hours and I feel that the long weekend just passed me by.. I had so many listed agenda (study for series63, clean my closet, clean my pc files, play with the dogs, cook pasta, etc) and yet I wasn’t able to do any of them because I’m not feeling too well. It’s like a flu is coming along but is disguised in plain colds + body aches - fever.

Disclaimer: Okay so this has been going around faceebook for a while. And I honestly missed tagging anyone back because; 1. I couldn’t think of 25 random things in one sitting, 2. i lost my internet connection for 5 days thanks to globe and 3. i was really blank and needed to wait for my moment to be able to answer this as lucidly as i can. Anyways..
Once you’ve been tagged, you are...
I got past the first week of taking in LSA (Licensed Service Agreement) calls and I managed to get an escalation from a customer who filed a complaint with FINRA regarding the kind of service he was he was getting/not getting from the firm. Not that he was actually complaining about me personally, but he was mistakenly sent an affidavit of domicile instead of the dispute forms he desperately...

Suddenly the old Britney Spears song played in my head.
But no, that’s got nothing to do with this post (the song or Britney,i mean).
It’s weird how quicky I shift emotions. Just yesterday I felt like the biggest wretch of the earth (around 10.30am onwards) and though I was kinda good at hiding how I really felt around everyone, the moment they’d left suddenly became cue for...

Holocaust survivors tell love story

In the beginning, there was a boy, a girl and an apple.
He was a teenager in a concentration camp in Nazi-controlled Germany. She was a bit younger, living free in the village, her family posing as Christians. Their eyes met through a barbed-wire fence and she...

There’s nothing worse than feeling you’re just not good enough. And it doesn’t help that a majority of the people you’re with are actually excelling at something you’re expected to have an understanding of when in fact you’re just a little too lost than the rest of them. It’s just so frustrating because you know you’re not daft and yet the results...
Some of you may have read some of his books.. I’ve read a majority in his collection and is a certified fan.. ANYWAY, here’s something I found today that you might appreciate:
