Are you ready shopaholics??!!

Robert Pattinson a.k.a. Edward Cullens of Twilight

After seeing Twilight movie, naasar ako. D ko alam kung bakit. Is it because I got jealous of Bella? (love interest of Edward).. Yeah, guilty of it.. Nakakaasar kasi unconditional ung love ni Edward kay Bella.. wala naman sa realidad nun e.. (bitter?!) siguro,  meron pa pero bihira ka ng makatagpo ng taong katulad ni Edward.. Nakakaasar siya tumingin o tumitig kay Bella.. Nararamdaman ko kasi ung lalim ng stares nia kay Bella.. Feeling ko ako si Bella.. I like the way he stares, the way he cares for Bella.. His sense of humor.. His physique.. His lips.. I fell in love with him just like that..

Mga Pamatay linya ni Edward at Bella:

Edward: “You think I regret saving your life?”
Bella: “I know you do”
Edward: “You don’t know anything.”

***

Edward: "It would be more... prudent for you not to be my friend. But I'm tired of trying to stay away from you, Bella."

***

Edward: "Bella, I couldn't live with myself if I ever hurt you. You don't know how it's tortured me.The thought of you, still, white, cold... to never see you blush scarlet again, to never see that flash of intuition in your eyes when you see through my pretenses... it would be unendurable. You are the most important thing to me now. The most important thing to me ever."

***

Edward: "Don't be self-conscious. If i could dream at all, it would be about you, and I'm not ashamed of it."

***

Edward: "I'm the world's best predator, aren't I? Everything about me invites you in - my voice, my face, even my smell. As if I need any of that! As if you could outrun me. As if you could fight me off."

***

Edward: What if I'm not a superhero? What if I'm the bad guy?

***

Edward: "You are exactly my brand of heroin."

***

Edward: "And so the lion fell in love with the lamb ..."
Bella: "Stupid lamb."
Edward: "Sick, masochistic lion."

***

Edward: Bella, I've already expended a great deal of personal effort at this point to keep you alive. I'm not about to let you behind the wheel of a vehicle when you can't even walk straight. Besides, friends don't let friends drive drunk.
Bella: Drunk?
Edward: You're intoxicated by my very presence.

***

Edward: Just because I'm resisting the wine doesn't mean I can't appreciate the bouquet.

***

Bella: I love you.
Edward: You are my life now.

***

Edward: If you let anything happen to yourself - anything at all - I'm holding you personally responsible.

***

Bella: Edward I honestly can't dance!
Edward: Don't worry silly. I can.

***

Bella (to herself): "About three things I was absolutly positive.
First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him- and I didn't know how dominant that part might be- that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him."

***

Edward: "For almost ninety years, I've walked among my kind, and yours... all the time thinking I was complete in myself, not realizing what I was seeking. And not finding anything, because you weren't alive yet."

***

hehehe! Hay nku.. makahanap nga ng vampire!

FUN! FUN! FUN!

I've had my interview last November 4, Tuesday, 5pm. I actually went home from shift, 8am
and went back on the said call time, 5pm. I actually would like to request the call time to be
earlier than said. But, it occurs to me that, it's just fine since PeopleSupport is just a ride
from home. And also, I don't want to have a premadonna impression from them. So, I look
for the interviewer. I'm pretty nervous but I didn't let that feeling affect my
stand. Mark was pretty cool during the interview. I wasn't intimidated by him. He was like my
previous boss when he interviewed me. We're conversing like were friends or something. I
like this type of interview. The goal is more of objective not subjective. I find it mature type
of interview.

During the interview:

Interviewer: <looking at my VIP application form and scanning my CV> Upon reading your VIP
application form, It seems that you would not fit the position. Reading through your expectations,
like telephony, networking, it seems that you are more interested in that field. Having it read,
would you still be pursuing your VIP application with us?

Me: So, you mean to say, IT department is not open for VIP applicants? May I know the
nature of your department?

Interviewer: Yes. IT department is not open for VIP as of the moment. Our department is IS
Software Quality Assurance under IS RND Team. We deal with testing Softwares, its
functionality and the likes.

Me: Do you require any experience with programming languages? Because I don't have
any programming knowledge.

Interviewer: Not necessarily. You mean, you don't have any basic knowledge about C, C++
and the likes?

Me: No. Only html. I self studied.

Interviewer: Well, that's fine. At least you have the logic because that matters.

Me: <laughs>

Interviewer: So, would you still be pursuing your VIP application with us?

Me: Yes.

Interviewer: Why?

Me: Because I wanna learn.

Interviewer: That's an impressive answer.

Me: <smiles>

Interviewer: So, tell me more about the nature of your job with Emerson. Don't you know
that Emerson is a big company and they actually bought Sykes now. And I'm telling
you, you are an ECE board passer right? so If you actually applied there, and you
are an Engineer, your salary is way too high compare to your salary here. <smile>. Well,
I'm not telling you to apply there but I'm just giving you the options you have outside
PS. <smiles> Plus, you will not take calls but basically you're considered as an Engineer.

Me: <smiles> Yes. I'm aware of that. My previous company is formerly known as Astec Power
Inc., and recently Emerson completely bought the company and change its name to Emerson
Network Power.

Interviewer: Can you tell me the nature of your work with Emerson?

Me: Well, I'm a Quality Initiatives Cadet Engineer. I belong to the Quality Initiatives group
that handle projects for company's improvement. The group has so many projects, and it so
happened that I was given the opportunity to handle one of its project, Auto - PFMEA (Process
Failure Mode and Effect Analysis) Software. I'm not the developer of the software. I just coordinate
the project within Cavite and China sites. We have a programmer. I dealt with Managers and Engineers.

Interviewer:So, why did you leave your previous job. It seems like you have very nice
experience there. You're like a Project Manager right? Why are you here?

Me: I knew you gonna ask me that question. <laughs> I knew it. Yes, my previous
company gave me very good experience. But, to be honest, I want to look for opportunities
in Manila. Coz, my work is provincial based so, the salary is way to low compared to what is
being offered here in Manila.

Interviewer: Yeah, practically speaking.

Me: Yeah. <smiles>

Interviewer: So, this is how I interview. Relax. It's suppose to be my boss interviewing
you guys but I said, let me handle it coz i don't want the applicants to be
intimidated by our boss that's why I conducted all the interview here in our team.

Me: <laughs> Yeah. Pretty cool huh.

Interviewer: So, tell me anything you want. Anything under the sun.

Me: <laughs> What do you want to know? I don't know what to say.

Interviewer: Hmm.. I need to ask you something.

Me: <laughs> Come on, ask me anything.. Come on..

Interviewer: How will you test for example the functionality of Google Web site?

I think for a few seconds, then I answered,

Me: Do i know that Google is a search engine site initially when it was first laid to me?

Interviewer: Yes.

Me: Hmm.. First off, I would think of a credible Web site which has meta tags and
keywords already submitted to the search engine sites. Then, I would test Google by
typing in one of the keywords, if the site is searchable, that means Google functions
properly.

Interviewer: Good. But, what else do you need to check on?

Me: Hmm.. I need to click on the searched site and make sure it's pulling up?

Interviewer: ok. But, there's one thing you also need to check on. You also need to check on
the alternative path. Meaning, you also need to check the error mode.

Me: I see. Interesting.

Interviewer: So, I'm pretty impressed with your interest to learn. To be honest, we have 5 aspiring
applicants and that includes you. However, as much as I want to accept all of you guys, but
we only need two. So, goodluck and I hope you'll be accepted.

Me: No problem. Thank you.

So, there goes the interview.. that's how I remembered it all.. hehehehe..

It's nice to know that our company has this kind of program, VIP thingy, which would
serve as a window for greener pastures if you are looking for a career other than being
a call center agent. I'm more than eager to take this opportunity. I felt like it would be
my stepping stone to achieve my goals. Finally.

I won't have any additional pay for taking this internship. It's not what I'm after for.
Really. I'm more than interested in the knowledge and the skills that I will be gaining
during the internship period. Of course, I would stay in office more than I usually do.
Say, two hours more. It could be before my shift or after my shift. It depends on the
schedule they will be providing. I'll have my orientation on November 12. I'm really excited.

I thank God for answering my prayers. Thanks.

huh.. GY, what's in it for me?

Reasons why I love watching Grey's Anatomy
1. McDreamy. (do i need to explain?)
2. How they deal with their own twisted life (I learn a lot)
3. The competition.. (i love the spirit of reaching the top regardless of the obstacles
they may encounter)
4. I admire Cristina.. (for being tough in dealing with her problems but she may be
insensitive at times)
5. I love them for being straight-forward to each other.. (i do admire the spirit)
...and still counting...

About Season 4..

This season is kinda nerve wrecking season.. why? because Dr. Burke had left the
hospital and Cristina for good.. Callie Torres - Miranda Bailey battle for chief residency..
George left Callie Torres for Izzie.. George, in his second internship in the hospital..
Lexie Grey, Meredith's half sister is one of the interns.. Miranda Bailey choosing between
her career and her own family.. Alex's unending sexcapades.. Dr. Erica Hahn, new resident
and replacement of Dr. Burke.. Cristina impressing Dr. Erica Hahn to join her heart surgeries..
Chief Richard Webber dealing with her divorce with her wife.. Meredith's complex love affair
with Derek and.. i think you must see it for yourself.. don't you think?

"Kung hindi mo mahal and isang tao, wag ka nang magpakita ng motibo para
mahalin ka nya.."

"Lahat naman ng tao sumeseryoso pag tinamaan ng pagmamahal. Yun nga
lang, hindi lahat matibay para sa temptasyon."

"Gamitin ang puso para alagaan ang taong malapit sayo. Gamitin ang utak
para alagaan ang sarili mo."

"Huwag mong bitawan ang bagay na hindi mo kayang makitang hawak ng iba."

"Huwag mong hawakan kung alam mong bibitawan mo lang."

"Huwag na huwag ka hahawak kapag alam mong may hawak ka na."

"Parang elevator lang yan eh, bakit mo pagsisiksikan ung sarili mo kung
walang pwesto para sayo. Eh meron naman hagdan, ayaw mo lang pansinin."

"Kung maghihintay ka nang lalandi sayo, walang mangyayari sa buhay mo..
Dapat lumandi ka din."

"Pag may mahal ka at ayaw sayo, hayaan mo. Malay mo sa mga susunod na
araw ayaw mo na din sa kanya, naunahan ka lang."

"Hiwalayan na kung di ka na masaya. Walang gamot sa tanga kundi
pagkukusa."

"Pag hindi ka mahal ng mahal mo wag ka magreklamo. Kasi may mga tao rin
na di mo mahal pero mahal ka.. Kaya quits lang."

"Bakit ba ayaw matulog ng mga bata sa tanghali? alam ba nilang pag
natuto silang umibig e hindi na sila makakatulog kahit gusto nila?"

"Hindi lungkot o takot ang mahirap sa pag-iisa kundi ang pagtanggap na
sa bilyon-bilyong tao sa mundo, wala man lang nakipaglaban upang makasama
ka."

"Kung nagmahal ka ng taong di dapat at nasaktan ka, wag mong sisihin ang
puso mo. Tumitibok lang yan para mag-supply ng dugo sa katawan mo. Ngayon,
kung magaling ka sa anatomy at ang sisisihin mo naman ay ang hypothalamus mo
na kumokontrol ng emotions mo, mali ka pa rin! Bakit? Utang na loob! Wag
mong isisi sa body organs mo ang mga sama ng loob mo sa buhay! Tandaan mo:
magiging masaya ka lang kung matututo kang tanggapin na hindi ang puso, utak,
atay o bituka mo ang may kasalanan sa lahat ng nangyari sayo, kundi IKAW
mismo!"

PAG-AARAL

"Mag-aral maigi. Kung titigil ka sa pag-aaral, manghihinayang ka
pagtanda mo dahil hindi mo naranasan ang kakaibang ligayang dulot ng mga araw na
walang pasok o suspendido ang klase o absent ang teacher. (Haaay, sarap!)."

"Nalaman kong marami palang libreng lecture sa mundo, ikaw ang gagawa ng
syllabus. Maraming teacher sa labas ng eskuwelahan, desisyon mo kung
kanino ka magpapaturo. Lahat tayo enrolled ngayon sa isang university, maraming
subject na mahirap, pero dahil libre, ikaw ang talo kung nag-drop ka.
Isa-isa tayong ga-graduate, iba't-ibang paraan. tanging diploma ay ang mga
alaala ng kung ano mang tulong o pagmamahal ang iniwan natin sa mundong pinangarap
nating baguhin minsan..."

"Hikayatin mo lahat ng kakilala mo na magkaroon ng kahit isa man lang
paboritong libro sa buhay nila. Dahil wala nang mas kawawa pa sa mga
taong literado pero hindi nagbabasa."

"dalawang dekada ka lang mag-aaral. kung 'di mo pagtityagaan, limang
dekada ng kahirapan ang kapalit. sobrang lugi. kung alam lang 'yan ng mga
kabataan, sa pananaw ko ehh walang gugustuhing umiwas sa eskwela."

BUHAY (IN GENERAL)

"nalaman kong hindi final exam ang passing rate ng buhay. hindi ito
multiple choice, identification, true or false, enumeration or fill-in-the-
blanks na sinasagutan kundi essay na isinusulat araw-araw. Huhusgahan ito hindi
base sa kung tama o mali ang sagot, kundi base sa kung may kabuluhan ang mga
isinulat o wala. Allowed ang erasures."

"Kumain ka na ng siopao na may palamang pusa o maglakad sa bubog nang
nakayapak, pero wag na wag kang susubok mag-drugs. Kung hindi mo kayang
umiwas, humingi ka ng tulong sa mga magulang mo dahil alam nila kung
saan ang mga murang supplier at hindi ka nila iisahan."

"Mangarap ka at abutin mo. Wag mong sisihin ang sira mong pamilya,
palpak mong syota, pilay mong tuta, o mga lumilipad na ipis. Kung may
pagkukulang sa'yo mga magulang mo, pwde kang manisi at maging rebelde. Tumigil ka sa
pag-aaral, mag-asawa ka, mag-drugs ka, magpakulay ka ng buhok sa
kili-kili. Sa banding huli, ikaw din ang biktima. Rebeldeng walang napatunayan at
bait sa sarili."

"Tuparin ang mga pangarap. Obligasyon mo yan sa sarili mo. Kung gusto mo
mang kumain ng balde-baldeng lupa para malagay ka sa Guinness Book of World
Records at maipagmalaki ng bansa natin, sige lang. Nosi balasi. wag mong
pansinin ang sasabihin ng mga taong susubok humarang sa'yo. Kung hindi
nagsumikap ang mga scientist noon, hindi pa rin tayo dapat nakatira sa
jupiter ngayon. Pero hindi pa rin naman talaga tayo nakatira sa jupiter
dahil nga hindi nagsumikap ang mga scientist noon. Kita mo yung moral lesson?"

"Nalaman kong habang lumalaki ka, maraming beses kang madadapa. Bumangon
ka man ulit o hindi, magpapatuloy ang buhay, iikot ang mundo, at mauubos
ang oras."

HALO-HALO

"Wag magmadali sa pag-aasawa. Tatlo, lima , sampung taon sa hinaharap,
mag-iiba pa ang pamantayan mo at maiisip mong di pala tamang pumili ng
kapareha dahil lang sa kaboses niya si Debbie Gibson o magaling
mag-breakdance. Totoong mas importante ang kalooban ng tao higit anuman.
Sa paglipas ng panahon, maging ang mga crush ng bayan sa eskwelahan e
nagmumukha ring pandesal. Maniwala ka."

"ayokong nasasanay sa mga bagay na pwede namang wala sa buhay ko."

"hinahanap mo nga ba ako o ang kawalan ko?"

"hindi dahil sa hindi mo naiintindihan ang isang bagay ay
kasinungalingan na ito. at hindi lahat ng kaya mong intindihin ay katotohanan. "

"Sabi nila, sa kahit ano raw problema, isang tao lang ang makakatulong
sa'yo - ang sarili mo. Tama sila. Isinuplong ako ng sarili ko. Kaya siguro
namigay ng konsyensya ang Diyos, alam niyang hindi sa lahat ng oras e gumagana
ang utak ng tao."

"Obligasyon kong maglayag, karapatan kong pumunta sa kung saan ko gusto,
responsibilidad ko ang buhay ko."

"Masama akong tao, tulad mo, sa parehong paraan na mabuti kang tao,
tulad ko."

"Mas mabuting mabigo sa paggawa ng isang bagay kesa magtagumpay sa
paggawa ng wala."

"iba ang walang ginagawa sa gumagawa ng wala."

"iba ang informal gramar sa mali!!!"

" Para san ba ang cellphone na may camera? Kung kailangan sa buhay un,
dapat matagal na kong patay."

"Pare, isa kang totoong tao at walang halong kasinungalingan. In
English,
FACT ***, pare. Totoo ka. In English, FACT ***

I treat my family last october 5. It was my mom's post-birthday celebration. Syempre,
pinagipunan ko un. We had dinner at Seaside MOA, by the bay, at Robbie's. We were
all there except for my bro. It was a mini-reunion per say. Nagkaroon kasi ng
misunderstanding between my mom and my bro. So, I feel the need to reconcile them,
in my own way. Feeling ko, since ako nalang and my bro ung nasa bahay, I feel responsible
for them. Wala kasi dito ung dalawa kong bro para pagayusin sila. I'm the youngest pero
I'm acting like older than my bro. E di ko naman masisisi both sides, they have their own
reasons. Kulang lang sa understanding ung both sides. "Empathy". Dun sila kinapos. Pro,
di naman nakasunod si bro kasi may inasikaso daw sya. Anyway, he made an effort naman
na sunduin kami after. Not bad.

Syempre, seafoods galore.. lamon kung lamon.. hehehe.. sarap kasi.. my fave? garlic-buttered
shrimp.. hmmm... naka 3 kilos kami ng shrimp, imagine? hihihi.. nagulat nga lang ako sa presyo
ng 1.5 liter ng Pepsi, it is 100 bux per bottle, whew!.. mahal dba? e siempre alangan namn laway
lang ang pantulak sa kinain namin? hayz.. anyway, nag enjoy naman ang lahat, lalo na mga
pamangkin ko.. It's so nice to have this moments with your family.. I just hope, dad is around..
Miss you dad..
