communication 2007-05-06 13:48:00 The moment I enter my room, the first thing I do is open my computer and let it connect to the internet. We only have a dial-up connection (thanks to the super slow PLDT DSL service which we were waiting for these past few years!!!) that means when I’m connected, the phone line is busy. The only time I disconnect is when I’m going to use the phone, or run a program that consumes a lot of memory resources, or when I’m not home. In short, no one can call me at home if I’m not expecting their call.Fate, it seems, has a way of doing things unexpected. Last night, I need to disconnect because I have to burn tons of files into a blank DVD. When ‘burning’ to a blank CD/DVD your process must not be interrupted or else the files will get corrupted. Anyway as I finished recording my files, I was about to connect when suddenly my phone rang. I’m not expecting a call from anyone so I hesitated to pick up the phone. After a few rings, I decided to pick it up to know who it was. I was Read more:communication
reflection 2007-04-26 22:47:00 I feel so down today. Thinking about the past makes me feel like this. How I wish that one-day I would wake up having amnesia. Without remembering anything about my past. Without having to worry about things I don’t have control of. I hate the past, its not that I can’t get over it, it just stuck with you like gum on a shoe.While I was having my dinner at a restaurant earlier today, there was this group of people across my table having a very interesting discussion. They are having some sort of bible study and sharing life experiences with each other. I have already finished my meal and ready to leave, but I was curious as how the discussion will go through. So I just sat there and listened to each and everyone’s story. One girl shared her story, relating her parents and God, and how loving both of them can be fulfilling in one’s life. Believe me when I say that I’m not a religious person. I don’t know when was the last time I went to church, or even prayed to God. Listenin Read more:reflection
revived 2007-04-18 17:29:00 It’s been quite a while since my last post here at blogspot. While juggling my time at work and my extra activities at home (including never ending movie/series marathons), I have had barely time to post here. Anyway, I’m back and I’m going to post in the next few days what I’ve been doing these past few weeks. And as for this week, I’m busy finishing up and uploading my photos at my gallery page at EternalMoonlight.netBy the way, my community site is now up and running again at http://www.tambayan.ph and my new personal site at http://www.eternalmoonlight.net
VCD's 2 2007-03-13 13:28:00 Last Sunday, I bought another set of VCD’s after watching 300. I didn’t browsed long enough at the video store so I just picked out random videos ^_^Sorry about the screenie, its a little dull :PArmy of Darkness – the first time I’ve watched this is when I was still in elementary. I can still remember the funny antics of the ‘small men’ while ‘torturing’ the hero. It was a mistake buying this, since my cousin already have this one. But nevertheless it’s a fine addition to my collection.Independence Day - one of my barkada showed up after a few minutes while I was browsing VCD’s and the first thing I said to him, “Sa tingin mo ano mas maganda ito or yung Armageddon?”. He answered without hesitation, “Independence Day”. It was one of his favorite movies, also if I remember correctly we watched this at the mall with our other barkada’s and we were like standing there the whole time. The theater was packed; it was full of people from all ages.The Notebook - on
night shift 2007-03-07 22:48:00 Since the advent of call centers here in the Philippines, which was around early 2k, more and more people started working on graveyard shift. Since clients are on the other side of the world, we have to adjust to their time schedule. The popularity of call centers, plus their high-income opportunity, has attracted more of the working class to shift jobs. As more people sacrificed their day jobs for night shifts, major cities in Metro Manila are now “alive” at night. The year I graduated college, was the peak of call center recruitments. I never did take jobs that require night shift, its not that I don’t want to, but my body could not handle it. But why did I accept this job here at onegcc, even if I knew in the first place that my shift would include graveyard schedules. Many reasons comes to mind; (1) I just like to try it out for a change, (2) I’m was bored at my former work, (3) to expand my experiences and learn new things, (4) I want to leave my former work so that in tim
linger 2007-03-06 22:54:00 I feel really tired today, it seems that I’m loosing my energy. I didn’t get enough sleep yesterday morning after I got home. I slept past 8 am then woke up around 2 or 3pm. I tried to go back to sleep that afternoon but to no avail. The air was cool coming from the window, my bed was comfortable enough, and there is very little noise from outside. But still I can’t sleep, I don’t know, maybe I haven’t adjusted yet for my night shift this week. I just lied there on my bed, forcing myself to sleep, but there’s something bothering me. There’s something I kept on thinking that whole day. It was her, this girl I kept on thinking about her. I don’t know why, but it seems she lingers on my mind. Although not everyday, but mostly after I wake up in the morning. Damn, I have to think of something else as soon as I wake up.Hmmm… maybe I just missed having a girlfriend. I missed having someone to talk to while going to the mall or watching a movie. I missed someone whom I can h
VCD's 2007-03-04 15:56:00 I went to the mall again today. I went there just to buy a pre-paid card for my globe number. I didn’t leave just yet after that, I strolled around for a few minutes. I hate going to malls on weekends coz there are so many people. Yeah you know I hate crowds, but what can I do, I really have to buy that pre-paid card. I was also planning to watch a movie today, but as I looked around the cinema, there was nothing worth watching this week. Instead I went to the department store I bought a couple of VCD’s to add to my ever growing collection. I don’t know why, but I recently started buying “original” VCD’s every week. My “usual” routine every Saturday (or Sunday) was to go to the mall, buy VCD’s and a take-out from my favorite resto, KFC. Then go back home, watch a movie while eating hotshots, chicken burger, fries, and any other available meal from KFC. Today I got to buy a couple of videos; the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Serendipity, X-Men The Last Stand, Raise Your V
dancers 2007-03-02 17:48:00 Surfing the net when there's nothing to do may sometimes lead to something wonderful. And most of the time, you might discover something worth, well... discovering. As I was strolling along the information super highway. I came across a GIF animation that can be compared to a flash animation for its smooth movements. This dancing girl, which I found somewhere on the net, is one of those animations I like the most.This image is transparent but I've used a white background because the edges can be seen if I use any other color. This is just a small image 88x120 (289kb) so your looking twice the size of the actual image.This animation also came from an unknown source. It has a size of 120x120 (292kb), and has been resized to match the height of the animation above.If anybody knows where I can get more animations like these, please message me. ^_^I'm tagging Sarah hime just to keep my head on my shoulders.
belldandy 2007-02-27 13:14:00 I’ve watched literally hundreds of anime’s (both series and OVAs) in my lifetime. But my most favorite of them all is Belldandy. She is a goddess from the series/movie titled Ah! My Goddess. One thing I like about her is her maturity and her attitude towards other people. She’s so kind, caring, and thoughtful, just a few of her many qualities and attributes that makes her lovable.Her profile info courtesy of Wikipedia.orgSpecies: GoddessRank: First class, second category, unlimited licenseGender: FemaleBirthdate: Unknown.

eyes 2007-02-26 18:02:00 I have a terrible headache today. Yesterday I went to the mall, again, and bought a meal from KFC which I took home. From noon till night I watched four videos straight, while eating my take-out meal. I was planning to watch another one since its not yet midnight, but my head is aching. Its because of my eyes, I strained it too much from watching videos. So I just slept, thinking my headache will be gone by the time I wake up.Then it was morning, I stood up, but my head is still throbbing from the pain. So I just lie down on my bed for a few minutes. I tried to relax my eyes by looking on my light blue painted wall (which I painted for a whole week) coz light colors tend to ‘cool’ tired eyes, even if I just woke up. Then I shifted my focus on the window so that I can view further objects to exercise my iris. It is somewhat a routine for me to exercise my eyes. It’s just that I want to take care of my eyes, and I don’t like wearing glasses or contacts. But long term exposure to
movies 2007-02-24 18:29:00 Its one past midnight, I’m still wide awake. After watching 3 movies
today, one from the theater at the mall earlier and the other two here in my room, I’m still craving to watch another one. I think I’m getting used to watching movies alone. Not like when I was younger, I never watched a movie from a theater without a company. It’s just so boring to watch a movie alone and no one to share it with. Since I broke up with my girlfriend last year, I’ve been going to malls alone, I buy what I want, and I go wherever and whenever without someone restricting me. This is what I want; this is how I lived my life before I had my first girlfriend. I chose freedom over restriction and responsibilities. Should I be happy that I’m back to living a carefree life? I should be, freedom is what I want. That’s the reason why I’m so stubborn. I like to do things I want to do, even if I know it’s wrong. I’m a rebel since birth. I never did follow some of the advices my parents taught m
Welcome 2007-02-22 12:24:00 It was late at night. The moon is shining brightly on a clear sky. The air is somewhat musky but cool nonetheless. Shadows of light poles can be seen across the dusty road. Houses on the right side and vast fields on the left. These are the first things I’ve noticed when I came back to this place. I never thought I would go back here again, but fate decided I visit this place once again. For what? Reconciliation? Forgiveness? I don’t now. Reason and purpose seems to escape me every time I look for it. No matter. I will never see this place again, maybe, I’m not sure. I’m not always sure. I’ve been living my life going to where destiny wants me to go. I seldom decide for myself what I want to do or where I want to go. I just follow the flow of life. Like a fallen leaf swimming across a river. Uncertain on where it would go or what will happen. Well… whatever happens, happens… that’s what I always say. But this place, I have a lot of memories here. I was happy the very da Read more:Welcome
avoiding 2007-05-15 14:02:00 Last Saturday night I was at SM City Fairview looking for a place to eat dinner. While I was strolling along the food court, I received a text message from Joanne. She said that she’s waiting at our ‘usual’ meeting place, back when we were still together, and that she would wait for me there for one whole hour. I knew that she used Smart’s ‘friend finder’ that’s why she knew I was at the mall at that time. I didn’t want to reply to her but I also don’t want her to be waiting there, so I replied back. I told her that I’m not going to see her and that we don’t have anything to talk about. I also told her that it’s useless to wait for me as I was not going there anyway.I found a place to eat. I switched my phone to silent so that I won’t be disturbed by the constant beeping noise due to the numerous text messages from her. Half way through my dinner, I checked on my phone. There were a couple of text messages, and eleven missed calls. She was persistent, but I di
decision 2007-05-17 16:17:00 I was waiting at our usual meeting place. I’m still thinking what to say, or what will be my final decision
. I’m not sure of my answer, I still haven’t decided yet. Then she came. We’ve had our talk, the usual conversation, just catching up on each other. Then she asked the question, again. The question that I still doesn’t have an answer. The question that I said I needed more time to decide.She asked if it is really over between us. I answered it with another question. I asked her what she wants me to say. She said that if she can have it her way, she wants us to get together again. She still loves me and that, even time, hasn’t changed. She was still wishing… hoping… that someday it will come. I asked her another question, hoping that I could stall a little more time before I gave her my decision. But still she insisted on my answer to her final and most important question.I told her that every time I tell her to stop bugging me these past few months; I thought that
Longer Nights 2007-06-05 12:12:00 These past few days (or maybe weeks) I noticed that the nights are getting longer. Many reasons would come to mind, here are two:(1) I’m on a permanent graveyard shift at work. Since that time when our superior told us that there will be no more morning or mid shifts, reality bites, and it bites hard. I’m on a call center and the nature of the company is awake in the night and sleeping on daylight. When I started applying for work around 3 years ago, I was hesitant to take a job in a call center. One main reason is that I can’t work at night, or my body won’t allow it. I know, I should not be picky on where or when to work, when there are so many people out there looking for a job. I mean hey, there are so many jobless people, but unlike most of them, I don’t have any initiative to work. Well… at least not yet… I have to admit, one of my faults is that I’m typically lazy. Well not totally lazy, when I have “important” responsibilities, I get to work on it and I “h
The magic is back 2007-06-10 11:32:00 Last Saturday night, while my girlfriend and I were having dinner, it just popped up in my head. I didn’t know or what inclined me to decide right there and then, but I asked her if she wants to go to Enchanted Kingdom the next day (Sunday, June 10). She just laughed and asked me, “Are you serious?” “Yup”, I replied. With no plans whatsoever and its already late at night, we decided to go just for the fun of it.The next day we arrived at our destination with a couple minutes to spare before the park opens. Here are a couple of highlights that happened in our spontaneous trip.(1) We were so early to arrive at Makati that the guy that sells the transportation tickets was not there. I was surprised that there was no one there; I thought it was the end of our trip.(2) The minute we got inside, my girlfriend went to the comfort room, and then we went to get a locker. After leaving some of our things, she rode the Grand Carousel as I was outside taking photos and videos of her. Aft
Goodbyes 2007-06-21 12:12:00 If ever there was another word for leaving, I’d use that instead of goodbye. I hate goodbyes; I really don’t like feeling sad. In fact I don’t like to be sad; I don’t want to be lonely. Maybe that’s why I surround myself with people, to entertain myself, to keep me busy, to keep me active so as to forget that I’m totally alone.It was already dark; the chairs are all still there aligned in front of the stage. All the other people left. I was there alone; I took a chair and sat. Thoughts filled my mind; I was thinking what will happen next. What will I do? What should I do? I was there, still sitting on that chair. It was just after my graduation in high school. I didn’t leave yet; I stayed there and contemplate on what I should do next. I was without plans, purpose, or goal. I looked up to the sky, it was filled with stars, I was lucky it wasn’t going to rain. Before it turned night on that day, I’ve already said goodbye to my high school friends, my buddies, my barkad
