• Lately I limit my clothing to black and white...
  Makes laundry way more easy
  

• I wanna shake the hand of the person who invented
  "Downy Isang Banlaw"
  

• I know there a lot of die-hard fans of starbucks and
  only frequent their stores exclusively and not
  trying some place else. They are limiting themselves
  to one concept and one style of serving espresso.
  Starbucks has a good product but it doesnt mean they
   are the only ones who have a great line-up of
  espresso drinks and other beverage and desserts.
  Different coffeeshops offer different things in the
  drink line up and desserts as well as gourmet items
  like sandwiches and pasta. Try experimenting
  coffeeshops and differentiate them from each others
  service, environment, quality of product, variety of
  what to offer they can offer like teas and other
  non-coffee alternatives, price. Then comeback to
  starbucks and make a decision. Remember there is a
  difference between a coffee lover and a <insert
  coffeeshop> lover. Its better to be a connoisseur
  than to be fan.

• BTW I love starbucks.

• Can you survive without a social network account?

But I will not define love. But you can see some

definitions or opinions about it.

I noticed that who are in love seldom define the

word love because they have it.

Infatuation.. thats a tricky word. Crushes too

Kids are screwed, they are the only ones who are

clueless about love but they are the ones most of

the time ask what love is. Funny, they give so much

of it.

Its romantic to try defining but basically

fantasizing.

You dont want the perfect love, it'll be boring.

Mature and growing... thats whats you want.

Maybe (just maybe) there is some women who loves

shoes more than their boyfriends...

I think its better to have love than to be in love.

At least you know that getting it than to be in love

but not reciprocated

And then what if you're loved but not the way you

want it but its the best kind of love given to you

from that person?

Im a making sense?

Its a scary thought but what if when you hear the

words "I love you" is actually "I appreciate what've

 you done" from that person.

This one cracks me up:

"Do you know what it means to come home at night to

a woman who'll give you a little love, a little

affection, a little tenderness? It means you're in

the wrong house, that's what it means."

-George Burns.


"If love is the answer, could you rephrase the

question?"

-Lilly Tomlin.

This suicide note was found on the body of Theodore the Teddy Bear after his jump off a 4-storey drawer

Had to leave my mind
Which is better than being left behind
Your transition from bears to boys
Made you forgot about the toys

My belly still stained by mascara teardrops from your prom
My heart ached with you that nightlong
Whenever you're crying inside your room
I always wish I could lift that gloom

We've been together for thirteen years
I asked you whom do you hug while in your fears
I've always been…
So blind you haven't seen

Truly it is a phenomena
You've grown up my dear Anna
Alas there was a man named "Aga"
And his "Pamaskong Maaga"

Theo

I'm currently listening Steve Martin on youtube. You see I escape through punchlines, rimshots, laughter and giggles. But through careful observations of these jesters I see the world and learn everything in 5-10 minutes of material. You become a honorary citizen of their country, city, town or whatever bar or tavern they tell their jokes.

I wonder if people still email non-work related stuff like shoutouts, Hi's and Hello's, letters composed of at least three to five paragraphs. Maybe letters are now composed of tweets and not of paragraphs. English being bastard and ingrateful son, still is possible. Someday the word paragraph will be replaced with tweets and will be considered archaic.

I refuse to read or hear more scandals of Philippines. Same shit differrent day. But I could not resists being intrigued to read headlines and news titles, I just could not put my finger on my whose the good guys (or girl) I would like to say my opinion on the matter if I could skim through the BS, media hype, spins of this three rings circus. So I give up, hopefully in ten years a refuttable news journalist will shed a light on the matter on his special documentary. Or maybe just wait until wiki catches up

Damn Sam Kinison is hard to listened to...

I still remember the day I "eyeballed" a lesbian accidentally, should have ask first about gender and sexual preference in YM. Though I wished that incident didnt happened... Most people would bailout, I didnt... I went with it. We watched the movie FINDING NEMO which we both enjoyed after went to a Mcdonalds to buy burgers and had a chat which gone well also. We look around the mall to do windowshop and I could not help myself to look around to see of there are people I know especially people from my Highschool. We separated and the following day I got an IM from that person saying how good of a person as well of having some class, apparently we both enjoyed each other's company.

For that person it was a friendly date, for me it was a mixture of growing up, letting go social stigmas, funny experience, wisdom gaining and other things you expect when enlightenment happens. But still I hetero as I would want. Just matured

I would like to continue on more on my thoughts. But maybe next time, Got work tomorrow...

I would like to have a new friend in this website

Im a MRT ridin

Next job searchin

Read the "Libre" to see whats happenin

I work 9 to 5

Just stay to feed my mouth and stay alive

Til the next paycheck arrives

This is the closest thing to life

Ride to my stop

Lookout for the next asshole to bop

Station to Station doing the hop

Im a kwek kwek and siomai siomai eatin

C2 and Zagu drinkin

Fine - dining wishin

Frappuccino Dreamin

This is my reality

Aint it close  to frugality

Sorry but you should open eyes and see

And bring you down like gravity

Just finished downloading season 5 of the Office and I'm 4 episodes away from finishing the Dave Chappelle Show. I like comedy. Its my drug of choice. I remember that during my high-school days that I would be mad and not study unless I watch my sitcoms. I also download movies that I missed out. Well not missed out but did see at all because I cant afford to. So I make it up by downloading small size versions of them and play them in my laptop using VLC player (a very good media player) I also on a lookout for the classics like the Reservoir Dogs. Man it is the best Tarantino Movie yet. Speaking of which I'm waiting for his newest flick called "Inglorious Basterds"

Since these files are on mp4 format. I'm eyeing,contemplating, reflecting, measuring up, asking around, thinking of buying a mp4 player or a old ipod to watch my sitcoms on the go. See that I used a lot of words rather than saying "thinking of buying". Thats how poor I am, if I want something Im gonna squeze my brain out before deciding. Rich people wont think about because they already have it.

I just watched last weekend "REC" its a Spanish Suspense Film which was remaked by Hollywood as "Quarantine" I already watched Quarantine before REC. With some minor differences, the adapted stayed true to the elements of REC. Both scared the shit out of me.

I gotta go

Got work to do

My thanks to people who leave comments and to the people who replied on my comments.

Thank you for making me feel a part of this.

The Blogger just got his salary deducted due to his company’s policy on cost variance, where items missing in your monthly inventory is deducted in your wage.

Basically the blogger is hungry and pissed-off

Top Ten Things on Thy Thoughts This Thursday

10. Zombie Apocalypse is good for bonding

Have you played LEFT 4 DEAD? It’s the biggest hit of the videogame maker VALVE (Half-Life and Counterstrike)

Most of you know this but its game where you kinda participate in a four man team in one of four scenarios, which is like a movie. Its simple really: from point A go to point B. You just have to shoot through a seemingly endless barrage of zombies. Take note that these Zombies run like the ones in the movies 28 days and somewhere along the horde you have a variety of enhanced monsters that stalks your team through the stage.

Its so F***ing cool when you got 4 of your closest buddies travelling in the most eeriest places on earth with no sign of life during night time. Helping out each other on a quest for survival. Its so unlike other games where you just be the star player or high scorer. This game is all about team work, communication, coordination, sharing, caring…

“Thank you for the Zombie the ones were shooting”

9. Pacquiao should have lost…

Before you react. Read further

Yes I said it pacquiao should have lost the fight. Why? Because it will mean more money for him in a rematch with Hatton. Manny needs a new nemesis he already beaten Barera and Morales. He needs a new arch-villain in the ring.

But more importantly a rematch woulod definitely keep Manny busy enough not to go to politics. Ho doesn’t need to be a politician. If he really wants to helps he should make a foundation, give scholarships, do fundraisers, do charity not involving the press. I do not now much about banking but by using his interest money (that’s 1% of his total winnings) he could help a lot of our countrymen. 1% of his winnigs is more than enough. Hell! Why not give he gives his Mcdonald’s outlet’s profit to charity that would be great right?

To quote from Forrest Gump:

Momma said there's only so much fortune a man really needs and the rest is just for showing off.

This just came in…

My store’s door wont lock, not that the locking mechanisms is broken but I could not get the two sliding doors to meet each other and lock it. Last night I stayed up in the store until dawn to watch over the repairs being done as per company standard. It should have been fixed… Now I have to stay until the Opening Manager comes in…

8. I like listening to stand-up comedians they make a lot of sense in the world… Im Paraphrasing it

Kat Williams said in his “Its Pimpin Pimpin” DVD that we should have focused on our

Star Player, the one we see in the mirror everyday. We always go out and please other people but how about your Star Player. Problem is you are not selfish enough and forgot about your Star Player. You should go and talk to your Star Player and say, “How are you doing today?”

(On friends)

You should have 4-5 friends that got your back and block the BS in this world. Whenever BS comes your friends should be there throw themselves in front you and block BS off.

(On relationships)

Some of you Star Players have a franchise player but you always have your Franchise Players on the bench. You forgot your Franchise Players because you are to busy on who’s trading who, who coming from the draft…

7. I’m depressed… My salary got deducted… Got no money saved because I bring in my share for the bills

And tomorrow is the 5^th anniversary of my girlfriend.

This really sucks.

6. Do you know the DC superhero Green Lantern? Well apparently there are other  “Lanterns” that existed in space (The Green Lanterns are like an Intergalactic Police that gets their powers for being Courageous)

Each Lantern is symbolized by a color which corresponds to a specific emotion

Green - Courage

Yellow – Fear

Red – Rage, Anger

Blue – Hope

Indigo – Compassion

Violet – Love

Black --- Death

5. On Windows XP

I read it on Wikipedia.com that WinXP stop selling to give to Vista and Windows 8. But support for the XP is until 2010, then they announced it that due to the number of UMPC and netbooks using XP they extended it to 2014

I’m using Windows 2000. Its 2009. I still got programs that support Win2000 and it seems it can go further. How long after 2014 would XP really be obsolete like Windows 98 and Windows ME?

4. Anime and Escapism

Although anime seems harmless to the viewer I think too much of it is alarming. On my opinion some types of Anime offers escapism to people who are having trouble with their lives. An example would be Harem

Harem is the type of Manga or Anime where the protagonist is the sole male character in the story or a male character surrounded by women of different kinds. The viewer could his favorite or crush from the cast of women in the story. Sometimes the male is the crush or would be the crush of all the female characters in the development of the story. It is easy to picture yourself as the Main Character of the story. Most of the time the male character is a weak, unimpressive, passive, shy, pushover, bad luck magnet, always gets to be beat up, and has trouble with girls. But at the same the male character is Chivalric and Sagacious, kind-hearted, man with principles, never give up, ever-loving under-dog. On the list given above you would probably picture yourself as the Main Character already.

With great fortune and luck the Main Character becomes the hero, a knight in shining armor if the occasion calls for it and in the end impresses the female cast. Sometime thru the course of the story he beginning to wisen up and becomes a man.

Who would not want to be the Man in this type of anime. Right? It is so ROMANTIC right? It is too ROMANTIC. Its unbelievable! C’mon a guy surrounded by girls that are cute, voluptuous, in Japanese high school uniforms, who has the hots for you and sometimes with alien superpowers, killer ancient pass to generation to generation martial arts who wields a big-ass bastard sword and drives a robot from Outer Space from another dimension.

I’ll make another blog regarding more on the topic but I hope you get the picture.

3. Question..

Do you have an On-line Degree?

Did it help you get a job?

Did it actually help you become a better professional?

2. What if one day all of the coffee shops have the same prices of coffees, cakes, frozen beverages and other items commonly found in a typical coffee shop.

Where would you go and why?

1. Again, using the #2 scenario above. Would you go FIGARO (or your country’s own coffeeshop) and buy your coffee and cakes in that place knowing all other coffee shops have the prices for their products? Would you pay their prices despite that most of their supplies came from your country, that the owner doesnt need to pay license fee for running their international brand in your country, basically would you pay an "international price" for a "local home grown concept"?

In other words...

Argh...

            After a long time I finally dugged uo this old blog account. It's been crazy lately that I need a release in my life. I gotta connect Man, Aside from this blog I have no web social life or web presence. I used t o have a friendster account but I had to let it go for personal reasons. Its hard these days to stay Human and to reach out, hopefully thru this I could help other bloggers, maybe a thumbs up, pat in the back, be your Rob Schneider shouting "You can do it" or I'll be the kitten in the "Hang in There Poster." A slim 6'foot tall male filipino kitten... Ouch the imagery... (Kitty wants some candy)

10. Im on a old Sony Viao PIII with 128mb ram and 12gb. Its still pretty good for simple operations like word processing, movies, old games (archaic even), net. Oh and its on the Win2k

9. I dont buy products that I dont it'll will benefit me or other people, I dont vote ... (why? is the lesser evil the right choice?)

8. Go To Detroit Metal City! (manga)

Detroit Metal City is about a death metal band that has gained immense popularity in the indie scene. The main character is a push-over, Negichi Souchi, who is trying to make a living in the music world, but he didn't imagine in his wildest dreams that it would be in such a band. Read and see what hilarious situations he gets himself into.

7. Pirated or Original License Software... Why not OPEN SOURCE? its free! (example firefox, openoffice etc). Check portableapps.com

6. Im a barista and I dont like it when we serve your coffee to your table specially when we clearly told you to wait for your drink at the pick-up counter. You pay us to make your coffee not to bring it to your table. Dont push it

5. Support your local standup comedians (Rex Navarete, Tim Tayag, Allan Manalo). Its very hard to come with new material or jokes. I'll post some ads in the future if they have some gigs. Trust me they're great

4. I love my girlfriend, we dont have a lot of things in common. We sometimes have different views and opinions on things. But she complements me

3. I'm ignorant... How do you help a country during a financial crisis

2. I know you would hate me for this but...

    They are two types of people who have the right to buy a photographer's camera; Professionals and Parents. if you're really into Photography as a hobby and you appreciate other people's shoots and have sufficient know how on taking pictures, sure. But you dont need a 20megapixel with sup-up lens hanging in your neck  for "Picture Picture" or on something you deemed "cool"

1. Whats so funny about peace, love and understanding...  Nick Lowe

With much love and appreciation
