If I am not mistaken, this would be the first entry that I've written on an afternoon... I'm still awake, and I have a PC... Did I finally have enough money to purchase such monstrosity?
Nope... I'm stuck in the office... The power-ridden and uber-hot office... Thank you Milenyo... you made my day!!! It would be nice to be stuck in here, but damn it's hot!!! And the elevator is not working... More on that in a bit... But yes, after several years, the country's (more like Manila) struck again by a signal number 3 typhoon... Normally, when a storm hits the city, I'm still good to go home... but today is different... Cars are being picked up by the heavy winds.. people get tossed around like salad (my brain's so off I can't write a witty joke... but you got the pun right? salad... tossed...) and my hair... I put gel on it this morning, but now I look like a before model for a shampoo commercial..
But it's cool... This is the first time I got stranded in the office... My whole 3 years of work life, this is the first time that I had to stay in the office because it's dangerous to go home... It's exciting...
One of the first things I did after work was go to Megamall to buy me something to wear later when my shift starts at 2am... And of course to get my weekly dose of comic books (hey, no national disaster's going to stop me from buying my one and only obsession)... riding the taxi back to the office was one of the most unforgettable moments in my life... I get to feel how it is inside a car that's almost being carried by the storm... That was effing cool!!!
It's calm now (at least for now)... I do hope the winds don't get stronger anymore, as I need people to come in tonight... We only have 3 more days before the month ends, and we're barely on goal... Enough about work... Although I'm in the office... I'm not here as an employee... I'm a squatter...
I haven't slept yet... I don't think I will... This place, unfamiliar territory... And I'm uneasy in unfamiliar territories... So now, I'm just browsing the web... trying to find porn that's not filtered by websense (kidding of course!!!)... anyway, I've finished reading my comic books so now I'm stalking the blogosphere trying to find some interesting people to strike a conversation with (as if that will happen)... no, I'm just looking for some people who would be foolish enough to link me in their blogs... I've no idea how I'll find one, but at least I get to find some good reads... Other people's lives tend to be more interesting than mine... that I think mostly everyone knows already...
Oh well, back to stalking...
Oh $#!+ there's this guy who found his lover in bed with another woman!!! And he joined them...

ENTRY 57: SNIPPETS
Wala nanaman ako masabi, pero dahil ako ay nag-commit na gagawa ng 100 journal entries ngayong taon, eh nagsusulat ako ngayon sa'yo... Nang bilangin ko ang mga kailangan kong gawin para magawa ko yung isa sa mga pangako ko na gagawin ko ngayong taon, nalaman ko na kailangan magsulat ako dito ng isang entry tuwing makalawa... In english, every other day(di ko kasi alam kung tama ang ginagawa ko)...
***
Dito sa programa ko, napansin ko na ang mga ahente ko na may mga hitsura eh may dala-dalang mga mabibigat na problema... Hindi ko na syempre sasabihin kung ano yung problema nila... Pinagkatiwalaan nila ako... Dapat tama lang ang ginagawa ko... Napaisip tuloy ako... Buti na lang hindi ako masyadong kagwapuhan...
***
May bagyo nga pala ngayon dito sa Pilipinas... Ang balita pa nga eh kasing lakas ito ng bagyong Katrina sa Amerika... Isa lang ang ibig sabihin nito... MASARAP MATULOG!!! Kaya lang may pasok... Balang araw talaga, di ko papasukan yung kompanya ko ng isang linggo... Ano kaya ang gagawin ni Janie sakin?
***
Gusto ko manuod ng sine... Wala namang magandang palabas... At wala din akong kasama... Kung may mag-aya sa akin sa Sabado, bakit hindi... Malamang wala din kaming panuorin...
***
Malapit na ang Thanksgiving sa Canada... Ibig nitong sabihin na meron nanaman kaming medyo mahaba-habang pahinga... Ang saya nga eh, kasi ang programa ko, may inihandang bonding session nanaman... magbobonding yung iba sa Enchanted Kingdom, Batangas, at Baguio... Malamang lalong magiging close ang mga agents ko nito...
***
Record breaking talaga ito... Apat na buwan na kaming nag-oovertime... 6th day overtime... ang ibig lang naman sabihin nito ay lumalaki ang hinihinging oras sa amin... Magaling kasi ang programa namin... Sana lang madagdagan ang pahinga naming lahat... Haaay... Pagod na kaming lahat... Pagod na pagod sa kakaovertime...

ENTRY 56: GREY'S ANATOMY
Okay, I admit this is more of a guilty pleasure for me... As much as I would not like to admit to the public that I watch this show, I really do like it... It's because it's funny and it's not dragging... and it's got Katherine Heigl... She's hot!!!
Season 2 of Grey's Anatomy is still brilliant... Better than the first season? Definitely... It's longer... 28 episodes, each one outdoing the other...
The show follows up on what happened when Meredith found out that Dr. McDreamy is still married... It's a cool relationship what they had... Immoral... But cool... I'd like to be like that with my exes... It's not the type of show that would make you want to be a doctor, it actually does the opposite... But it's still cool... In what kind of hospital will you see doctors accepting a patient with a missile lodged in his chest... or instead of anaesthetics, uses pornography as a means to ease the pain, literally... Only in Seattle Grace Hospital...
This is far from my favorite television show, but it certainly one that makes me feel good after... I cannot relate to any character, but I certainly can sympathize with them...

ENTRY 55: ANONG MERON ANG TAONG HAPPY?
Di ko alam kung bakit, pero masaya ako ngayon... Siguro dahil maganda ang performance ng programa ko... dahil natapos ko na yung Season 2 ng Grey's Anatomy... dahil malapit na akong bumili ng bagong cellphone... dahil malapit na ang Octoberfest... o dahil tapos na ang tag-ulan (kahit medyo umaambon-ambon pa)...
Wala akong tulog nuong linggo... Tinapos ko ang buong season ng Grey's Anatomy, mula alas-dose ng tanghali, hanggang alas-dose ng gabi... tuluy-tuloy kong pinanuod yung palabas... AStig... nakakatawa... tapos may mga episode na nakakaiyak (pero di ko ginawa yun... umiyak)... pero mas madami ang nakakatawa... Buong buod sa palabas isusulat ko mamaya o bukas...
Ang isang naging dragging lang sa weekend ko eh nung nalaman ko na hiwalay na ang katrabaho ko sa girlfriend niya ng halos walong taon... Malungkot... pero ganyan talaga ang buhay...
Masaya pa rin ako!!! Dapat lang para hindi bumilis yung pagtanda ng hitsura ko... Gusto ko na lagi akong mukhang bata... Nung linggo kasi, sabi ng isang dati kong ahente na mukha daw akong sobrang ngarag... Di kasi ako nagsuklay... kaya ngayon... todo pomada ito!!! Harhar...

ENTRY 54: NANALO KAMI!!!
Simula alas-4 kahapon, hindi na ako nakaupo hanggang bandang alas sais ng gabi... Ang dahilan...
Game 3 ng finals ng San Beda at PCU!!!
At nanalo kami!!! Pagkatapos ng 28 napakahabang taon, ang tagtuyot ay natapos na... Nakapag-uwi na ang kolehiyo ko ng tropeo para sa men's basketball!!!
Sobrang dikit ng labanan... Last quarter, ang lamang naming bente napalapit sa 1... sinuwerte talaga kami kahapon... Kung naipasok ni Belga yung huli niyang tira, malamang di isasara ang Mendiola mamaya... 1 lang ang lamang... ISA!!!
Worthy opponent talaga ang PCU... Sinong mag-aakala na pagkatapos bumulusok ng SBC sa 3rd Quarter, eh 6 lang ang maipupuntos nila sa huling sampung minuto ng laro... halos lahat pa nun eh free throw...
Pero di na mahalaga lahat yun... Ang mahalaga NANALO KAMI!!! Woooohhh!!! YES!!! Kung pwede lang ako pumunta sa Mendiola mamaya, gagawin ko!!! Ang galing nilang lahat... si Aljamal, Angeles (na pamatay ang buzzer-beater na 3 point shot nung 2nd quarter), Ekwe at Escobal... Hanga ako... Kahit nung bandang huli eh medyo sumablay ang ilan sa inyo, hanga pa din ako!!! Kudos din syempre kay Coach Koy Banal, ang galing mo!!! Sayang wala ako sa Araneta!!! Ang saya!!! Animo San Beda!!! Ang dami kong tinype na exclamation point sa entry na'to!!!

ENTRY 53: THE BOSS
It's 10:40pm and normally, I should be at home sleeping or watching cheesy filipino telenovelas or... well... sleeping... But today, I'm in the office not really working... I have to come in early so I could meet the Chairman and CEO of the company I'm working for...
If you could only see me now... I'm wearing a tie... My long sleeve's not folded... I look decent... I mean I should... but today, it's not normal, I feel like a distinguished gentleman... Which I'm not by the way... I'm more of a crazed lunatic, but then again that's what meeting the boss usually does...
Funny thing... I do not have a clue as to how to knot my necktie... I did back when I was in high school (this is embarassing as I graduated from a business school with a degree in Marketing)... So I'm almost late to work, and there was no prepared tie on my closet so I had to pick one that would complement what I was wearing... and no, I did not choose my condom designed tie... On my way to work, I had to practice making the knots on my tie... I thought I won't get it right... Was able to do it on my 35th try... The windsor knot... Ha!!!
I met him... The CEO of ICT Group... John was a nice man... We talked for about one minute... And then poof he's gone... At least he knows me now... Good thing my boss, Ms. Joh, she said nice things about me... Remind me to thank her later...
In any case, I came in 5 hours earlier to meet the CEO of my company for a minute... Yay!!! At least I'll be able to go home early today.

ENTRY 52: END 28 ON 82
One of the things that I am proud of, aside from being a Supervisor at the age of 24, is that I also am a BEDAN!!! And this week, we're at the peak of our elated days... After so many years, we are on the brink of winning the championship for the Men's Basketball in NCAA Season 82... This is a celebration of Ateneo proportions!!! I'm so happy and proud!!!
I think today's game was the first one I've seen of our men's basketball team in 3 years... A lot of new faces were on the team, and most of them played great... I think the leaders for this game were Youssif Aljamal, Escobal, Angeles and of course this season's Rookie of the Year and Most Valuable Player, Sam Ekwe!!!
Hot damn, Araneta Coliseum was so red, I didn't know what to think... I wanted to be one of them!!! I will try to score me and some colleagues tickets for tomorrow's game... This is it!!! NO more title drought for the team!!! Woohoo!!!
ANIMO SAN BEDA!!!

ENTRY 51: OLD SOUL
After going out last night, I realized that I have an old soul... I'm not sure, I rarely go out to bars to party, it's never been my thing... But when I went there last night, I really felt that I don't belong...
I guess it's the introvert in me... I have no idea why I cannot bring out the extrovert in me whenever I'm outside the four walls of the office... It's not that bad, but the thing is, other than work, I cannot find a topic to talk about with my co-workers outside the office... That is just so wrong...
Do not take this the wrong way, but I did enjoy my trip to Decades last night... God knows I deserve to have some fun sometimes!!! I get to jiggy a little bit (it's embarassing, you don't want to see that)... I know I have two left feet... But like I said, I feel that I don't belong to that kind of crowd...
And I'm only 24!!! Dancing with 19 year-olds are not that wrong... They're technically of legal age already, but to me, I'm finding it difficult to relate with them, intellectually... Like I said, I have an old soul...

ENTRY 50: EULOGY SA CELLPHONE KO
Kung nabasa niyo yung huling entry ko, nalaman niyo na nawala yung cellphone ko sa Enchanted Kingdom... Ninakaw siya ng walang kaluluwang nilalang na hindi ko malaman kung bakit isinilang pa sa mundo... Ngayon ako magpapakabitter, para matapos na lahat ito... ilalabas ko lang yung sama ng loob ko... Pagpasensyahan niyo na po ako...
Nung pasko nung nakaraang taon, ipinakita ko sa inyo yung nabili kong cellphone... Sony Ericson k750i... Minahal ko yun ng halos 9 na buwan... Halos lahat ng mga paborito kong kanta nakastore sa mp3 player nun... At ang mga PICTURES!!! yun ang pinakanakakapanghinayang... Hindi ko man lang nai-upload yung mga larawan ko at ng mga katrabaho ko sa email ko...
Nanggigigil ako... di ko alam kung paano nakuha yun... pero tapos na siya... I've let go... I'm moving on... Kailan kaya ako makakabili ng kapalit ng phone na yun? Gusto kong bilhin yung Cybershot phone ng Ericson... Pero medyo mahal pa siya... Hihintayin ko muna maging mura yung phone, saka ko bibilhin... Sana dumating na yung increase ko, nang matigil ako sa kakatipid... Hindi siya healthy para sakin...
Ang mabuti na naidudulot ng pagkawala ng phone ko ngayon... eto...

- Nauuto ko ang mga agents ko na gawin lahat ng gusto ko (kunwari nalulungkot ako)
- Napagbibigyan akong iextend ang mga utang ko dahil nga kunwari depressed ako...
- Naipagluto ako ng magulang ko ng paborito kong pagkain nung linggo
- Lahat nakikisimpatya sa pagkawala ng phone ko (concerned sakin agents ko... awwww)
Ok na ako... Move on..

ENTRY 48: MEAN BOY
fSo nakasakay ako kanina sa fx pauwi, and then there was this girl na empleyado ng SM Sucat na feeling nagmamaganda... Di ba ang ilang fx eh yung aircon lahat nasa gitna, ang ginawa nung epal na babae tinapat sa kanya yung aircon, as in sa kanya lang... Nakakaasar diba? Mabuti na lang nakapagtimpi ako kanina... Inisip ko na lang na babae siya... Pero sa isip ko, gustung-gusto ko siyang awayin... She's not pretty... at empleyado lang siya ng SM, minimum wage earner... HELLO!!! Arrrgh!!! Nakakagigil!!!

New office policy...
Napapansin ko kasi, na dumadami ang nagdadahilan ng kung anu-ano para hindi magtawag sa trabaho... Pumapasok kayo para magtrabaho at hindi magpahinga... Kaya ngayon, kung di mo kayang magtawag, umuwi ka na lang... Para di sayang pinapasweldo namin sa inyo... bawal na ang nakameeting sa clock... Kung di mo kayang magtawag, GO HOME...
*****
Si tatay...
Hindi pa rin nagsasawa sa kaka-magic sing... Kaligayahan niya yun... Pero naman kung wala ka ng boses, sana itigil na ang pagkanta!!! Mahal ko mga magulang ko, di ko lang talaga kaya na nag-iingay sila... Medyo maganda kasi sound system sa bahay, at kapag nagmamagic sing ang isang tao eh, naririnig hanggang kanto yung sounds... Ang tatay ko, araw-araw kung kumanta, at medyo full volume pa ang speakers... Wala namang boses... Nagsawa na siya sa kakakanta ng Matt Munro at Frank Sinatra (after 3 months)... kaya ngayon lahat na ng kanta eh sinusubukan niya... Ilang daan din yun... Nakasarado na pintuan at bintana ng kwarto ko, naririnig ko pa rin yung paos at pekeng palseto niyang boses... Iniisip ko tuloy kung ano sinasabi ng mga kapitbahay namin tungkol sa kanya... Idadagdag ko lang, madalas siyang magpractice sa bahay ng mga maghahatinggabi... Milagro na lang na hindi pa binabato yung bahay namin... I love you daddy...
*****
Dala ng walang tulog...
Wala akong tulog masyado ngayon kaya medyo 'cranky' ako... Patawad po... Di ako talaga ganito... Siguro mawawala ito pagpunta namin mamaya sa Enchanted Kingdom... Pero mukhang malabo, lalo kasi akong hindi makakatulog nun... Medyo nagdadalawang isip nga ako ngayon.. Ako lang ata yung lalaki na sasama dun... Inutang ko pa yung pangpunta ko don... Wag na lang kaya ako sumama? Hmmm...
*****
Nagbabakasakali lang...
Gusto kong magleave ng isang linggo... Di kaya ako ibitin ng patiwarik ni Janie? Subukan ko kaya... Pang-asar lang... Kaya na naman ata nilang patakbuhin 'tong programang ito nang wala ako... May balikan pa kaya akong posisyon? Ayoko, wag muna... Tikman ko muna yung increase ko... Sana malapit na 'yon para makapagleave na ako... Pupunta talaga ako ng Bora... Kahit ako lang mag-isa...
*****
Bwiset...
Ang dalas ko nang nakakarinig ng mga kantang pampasko... Nakakadepress... 3 buwan pa bago magpasko!!! Ang kinatutuwa ko lang sa mga panahon na ganito eh yung linggu-linggong fireworks display na nagaganap sa Ayala at ngayon sa Mall of Asia... Yun lang... Wala ng iba...
*****
Isa pang bwiset...
Mag-aalas onse na... Isa-isa ng dumarating ang mga text messages ng mga ahente ko... Hindi raw sila makakapasok ngayon...

- May sakit ang anak ko (medyo valid, kasi kahapon pa ito... pumasok lang kahapon)
- Binaha daw sa area nila (medyo malakas kasi ulan ngayon... biglaan)
- Baka may dengue yung kapatid (k, fine)
- Di daw maganda ang pakiramdam (pinakagasgas na excuse)
- Namamaga ang tonsils (di sanay magtawag)
Dahil dyan, buong buwan nanaman kaming mag-oOT... Tanggalin ko kaya lahat ng absinero sa programa ko? Parang gusto kong maging diktador dito ngayon... Magbago kaya ang ugali ng mga ahente ko? Buong gabi ako ngayon gagawa ng mga warnings... Tutal mean boy na naman ako ngayon... PANININDIGAN KO NA ITO...

ENTRY 47: HAY!!!
Matagal-tagal na rin akong hindi nagsusulat sa tagalog dito sa blog kong ito... Wala rin naman akong masabi na matino... yung huli ko palang sinulat, medyo tagalog din meron don.. Hindi ko nga alam kung bakit palaging inggles yung mga sinusulat ko.. di naman ako gaanong magaling sa wikang iyon... kahit nga sa trabaho, di ako masyadong nag-iinggles... ginagawa ko lang yun kapag may kliyente...
So kumusta naman ako? ETo ngarag pa rin sa trabaho... ngayong linggo, sasama ako sa mga katrabaho ko na pumunta sa Enchanted Kingdom... matagal na rin akong hindi nakakapunta dun, sampung taon? dalawang magkasunod na linggo akong pupunta ng Laguna... suki... wala lang...
Mahirap magpatakbo ng programa... kelangan ko talaga ng isang MAHABANG pahinga...

ENTRY 46: THE LONG DRUNKEN WEEKEND
So if you're like me who works in a call center, last weekend was a long one... Whether you're calling the US or Canada (like my account), you didn't work yesterday... I guess the only exception are the inbound people...
It's been awhile since my program had an outing of some sorts... If I'm not mistaken, the last time we did it, was last April... the start of summer... I think that was our anniversary celebration... Because we've been having like 6th day overtimes for two months, we've decided to rest up a bit, relax, and go out of the city and enjoy a little bit...
We went to Pansol Laguna to have our outing... the first time wherein I helped in organizing one... It was a lot of fun... I think I spent 75% of our time there drunk... Imagine drinking Gran Matador and having San Mig Light as your chaser... That was fun... I can't believe that I did not pass out or throw up... I can even still remember everything I did there...
Of course there were still some things that i would've liked to do that I wasn't able to because of having lack of time and preparation, but the important thing is, everybody bonded... I think somehow in some way we got to know a little of each other better...
Here's some of the things I learned through our little bonding activity...

Here's some of the things I learned through our little bonding activity...
- Now i know that one of my colleagues is a huge flirt when drunk!!!
- I know that there are certain people that takes jokes seriously
- A couple of love teams were formed... just for fun
- Drunk people are fun to hang around with
- You do NOT follow a shot of Gran Matador with San Mig Light... that shit's strong...
- Holding the mic in a videoke after you swim will get you grounded
- You sleep better when your room is air-conditioned
- Oh yeah and I can stay under water for longer than 30 seconds now... I still don't know how to swim though...
- One good bonding activity is to eat like soldiers... all the food is placed on a few banana leaves... it's fun to share germs with your friends.
- I like beer...

ENTRY 45: THEME SONG FOR THE MOMENT
NOt that I'm depressed at the moment, it's just that I feel this song fits my mood or my life best... It's a Queen classic...
SOMEBODY TO LOVE
QUEEN
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
Each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
Take a look in the mirror and cry
Lord what you're doing to me
I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just can't get no relief, Lord!
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
I work hard every day of my life
I work till I ache my bones
At the end I take home my hard earned pay all on my own -
I get down on my knees
And I start to pray
Till the tears run down from my eyes
Lord - somebody - somebody
Can anybody find me - somebody to love?
(He works hard)
Everyday - I try and I try and I try -
But everybody wants to put me down
They say I'm goin' crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
Got no common sense I got nobody left to believe
Yeah - yeah yeah yeah
Oh Lord
Somebody - somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
Got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat
I'm ok, I'm alright
Ain't gonna face no defeat
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
Someday I'm gonna be free, Lord!
Find me somebody to love
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

ENTRY 44: SEPTEMBER
A new month... A new lease on life... After that terrible ordeal I had to go through this week, I promised to do away with the whole love crap... I won't be bitter, but now may not be the right time for me to be going into relationships... Maybe I'm just stressed out with the promotion, and everything going on with my life... New responsibilities and all that... I guess, I just wanted someone to talk to about everything that goes on with me... Someone to share my joys with... Just someone... Anyone... Can anybody find me, somebody to love...
Oh well, you can't have everything... At least I've got tons of money!!!
*****
My new credo... I don't give a crap on what people think of me... I have money!!!
*****
Oh yeah, I better start saving some to buy gifts for colleagues, godchildren and family for Christmas...
It's the 'ber' month already... The depression season is coming!!!
