Day 007 Well, there goes that resolve. I don’t know why I’m even like this. Probably because I’m a stupid obsessive asshole who can’t take a hint. Green’s here today… completely visible from where I’m sitting. When I pass by her area I just get a tiny hint of her scent and it drives me wild. My decision to avoid her completely makes me want to stab myself with an ice pick for thinking that I could pull that off. I’ve never been good at going cold turkey and seeing her everyday doesn’t help it one bit. When I pass by her terminal, I see her typing...

‘Tis better to have loved and lost Than to never have loved at all. – Alfred Lord Tennyson (Brace yourself. This is going to be a long one.) This is probably one of the most popular and repeated “love quote” in the world. Though after reading some more of the poem, I found out it isn’t about love and losing it but rather a requiem. I find that the line, even out of context, means the same. Losing someone’s love is about as devastating for me as that person’s death. Probably even more so. When someone you love is a person who loves you...

There’s this Globe promo contest that let’s you choose one person to be your Super One. That is, you can call and text (not at the same time, mind you. It’s not only hard to do, it’s also pointless) anytime you want for as long and as many times as you want. It’s a great feature and all but I have to say, that’s a tough call. Having to choose one among your plethora of friends and family you can turn into your inseparable mobile phone soulmate is just not something you can do as easily as blinking. In my case, I’d probably be able to learn how to lobotomize...

Last week Thursday, June 17, 2010, Globe launched their new flagship store in Greenbelt. I get the feeling that the concept of the store is incredible customer care and interactivity. The layout of the place is great though confusing at first since the CSR people are hidden behind the display cases and posters, nothing a couple of visits won’t solve. I have not tried their service yet since I have had no need for it. They also offer free WiFi connection for customers in queue (and I bet leeches…), plenty of comfy (well, comfy-looking, I haven’t tried it) chairs, and an interactive...

The last time I was in Cebu was 3 years ago. Ever since then I have always wanted to go back but there was never anytime. Well, this weekend I will have the oppurtunity to go back to the Cebu. What’s even better is that I’m joining Cebu Blog Camp 2010. I won’t just get to go back Cebu but I get to meet other bloggers as well. Aside from my ticket and lodging (ahem ahem), everything is made possible by our great sponsors: The last time I was in Cebu was 3 years ago. Ever since then I have always wanted to go back but there was never anytime. Well, this weekend I will have the oppurtunity...

I am weird. People tell me that all the time. Some are kinder though and opt for the more subtle “kakaiba ka”. It doesn’t really matter what they call me. I don’t deny it anyway. I am weird, relatively and literally. I have habits that are borderline anal and some that are tolerable as eccentric. Take for instance my habit of arranging my money. I like to have all my paper bills (Is this redundant? Kindly correct me.) and sometimes even my coins in a certain way. I can say it’s not that obsessive since I only want them to be arranged from smallest to highest in terms...

Yes, yes… I am back. Alive and well. Still lazy though. Anyway, here is my first post for the year. Hopefully, it won’t be the last. This one’s a doozy, so bear (or bare whichever you like… wink wink) with me. I sometimes, okay always, envy some people I see. Texting with their iPhones and Blackberries (<— funny… Blackberries… tihihi), photographing with D300s, driving with BMWs. They have such a good life. Either really hard working with a very rewarding job, won a contest or have a “sponsor” for thier needs and wants. I would like to have...

Micamyx. Hmmm… I vote her for the Blogger’s Choice Award. Why? Well… Hmmm… I don’t know. Kidding Mica!!! Really, I vote for the award ’cause she deserves it. Besides the fact the she’s a great blogger, she’s also a wonderful friend. The first we were together in an event, almost (I say almost, ’cause I got there late) everyone that went in the place greeted her hello. Mind you, it’s not out of courtesy but rather because she’s like friends with everyone. I also really love her posts. Very sensible and touching. It’s also very...

People say that I look tired lately. They keep asking me if I have a problem. Well, I do. I think it’s because my mind and my heart has been running in nonstop overdrive for the last couple of months. My mind has not stopped thinking and it has thought of a lot of things. Things I don’t normally think about, things I shouldn’t think about, things I thought I’ll never think about. All sorts of things. I can handle that though. My mind was never much of an idler (quite the opposite for my body though) so this much thinking doesn’t bother me. The stuff I think about,...

It’s that time of year again. The time where friends of friends of friends ask me to make an effort to vote… for them. It used to be easy to vote for blogs before ’cause there were only a handful. Now, everybody and his brother has a blog… or two. I just can’t keep up anymore. But still, even with the plethora of blogs out there, some will definitely stand out. The blogs I will list below are some of the one’s I think are a must read. They make a lot of (or enough) sense and can make you think about things. Admittedly, I don’t follow them as I religiously...

As you have observed… I have not posted anything for the last 2 months… I have been lazy, unmotivated, uninterested to post anything. To think that I’m paying for this site’s server and domain and all that internet mumbo jumbo that I really don’t get and yet not use it. Anyway, I have gotten hold of (okay, maybe just the privelege of using) one of my most coveted gadgets of all time and it’s the sign I”ve been waiting for. I (or rather, Fate) have decided that it’s going to be my mission to post one photo a day. It’s already started yesterday...

I am supposed to be doing something important right now but since no one is looking, I think I’ll just have fun instead. A lot has happened this week and it is still Thursday. Time was just a bit complicated for me this week. Sometimes it was just going to slow and sometimes too fast. (more…)
