Passing by a Pretty Girl, OT’s and Blogging in Passing by

Friday, February 26th, 2010

I saw this girl yesterday on the way home, I did OT again (one that I am beginning to be sick of), when I saw this pretty girl in the jeep. She was pretty, but she could have been beautiful. She had pretty eyes and nose, but there is something wrong. She was pleasant-looking but her beautiful eyes were too small in contrast to her larger nose. It’s not that her nose was big, it was too big for her eyes.

She had eyes like for the chinita types, but it was too big for her nose (that was very Filipino, a Filipino nose in a nice way). It is funny how we are all made to think of standards, maybe she is beautiful in some cultures. And I blame globalization.

We have talked  about beauty in length last weekend, maybe suitable for another post.

of role models (or they ought to be)

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

I saw episodes of The Wonder Years sometimes on the Hallmark channel.

In the episode I saw, Kevin Arnold is partnered with weird girl Margaret, the unpopular type that we all have in school. He realized she’s pretty cool even if “She asks too many questions, has a pet bat, and wears her hair in three pig tails (because you never know when you’re going to need a hair tie)”1 .

Bleh!

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

I sometimes wonder why the world has come to be the way that it is. Like, who needs a college education when doing the things that many of us do? I think the diploma is just a reassurance for the companies that we are not idiots.

I think I want to be back in the time when we are trained my a master craftsman, be a novice and work your way up until you get to be called a Master, because you have become worthy.

We work then we see a large deduction on our pay slip, ridiculously large coz the government feels we need to pay that much for being a Filipino. I am enjoying being a Filipino right now.

Just to get something out of my system

Friday, February 12th, 2010

I am happy that people still find me creepy. I was singing that Black Eyed Peas song absentmindedly, tonight’s gonna be a good night! Yeah, I was that withdrawn. Corporate life makes you do things you don’t normally do. And it creeped out my (sort-of) communist seatmate. I think it’s because I used my from-the-grave voice, which I was not deliberately doing. Hahaha!

So apparently, I have not lost it yet. I thought I was beginning to be one of them.

I hate a lot of people right now. I hate Vice Ganda. I don’t know why people in facebook are all of a sudden fans of Vice Ganda, I don’t know what good she ever did? Really. All she did was made an insipid defense (actually lame rebuttal, which is not even a real rebuttal) against Rosanna Roces’ comments against teachers. FB makes me see the sick and twisted minds of people who are fans of Jason Ivler. It is not much different from worshipping Charles Manson. You sick, sick people!

The drawback of technology

Sunday, February 7th, 2010

Because we do not own a router, I have to wait in queue for my turn to use the internet while my bratty sister was in her typical cranky self. Storming to my room, I decided to continue reading TH White’s Once and Future King, left unfinished for a week or so.

Bad-tempered at first, I then got lost in the world of fantasy and enjoyed reading about Merlyn’s wisdom, Queen Morgause of Lothian and her other enchanted sisters, of the Old Ones and the early years of Arthur’s rule.
