Of dinosaur bones

Saturday, November 28th, 2009

You know how people dig dinosaurs and other bones of prehistoric creatures in places like China and Indonesia, and there are none here. I mean our country has a lot of water in it. Don’t reptiles like that? Meow added that we have crocodiles here: Big crocodiles, and they’re like close relatives of dinosaurs. They should be thriving here like chickens. I mean the environment here (I assume that the proximity we have from the equator would not have changed that much), it’s a habitat that’s good for them.

Bakit ba walang nahuhukay na dinosaur dito? Of course, beside the obvious reason that we don’t have paleontologists here… I think that nobody is interested in looking for dinosaur bones or any other bones here.

A new post that's not so whiney

Friday, September 4th, 2009

I was thinking, if I am not an academic and I hate corporate life, what should I do with myself? Kung pwede lang maging professional bum? I think that will work for me. Having a stay-at-home job requires discipline, which I don’t possess anyway. I am best suited for the bohemian life. Too bad I am not talented enough to come up with a brilliant painting or book once a year and then sell it for a LOT of money to sustain my lifestyle, which is pretty lavish in terms of the useless stuff that my money goes to.

I have been complaining about how I am not doing well at  training. As it turns out my 76% score in voice accuracy was high considering that they only ask for 50% on actual production. Ang problema, madaming magaling sa kasama ko sa training. Oh, well. Like I always say, take everything in stride, come what may. I will do my best not to be a whiner. I am embarrassed to admit this but I am a whiner.

It’s raining outside, I am in no mood to go to work. The consolation I have is not working on Monday because of the US holiday. Inisip ko kung simulan ko na ngayon ang long weekend. But that can’t be.

Some of my coworkers don’t like our trainer. I have no idea. Dapat nga lumabas sa sariling mundo, huli ako lagi.

Facbook is making me sick now. I hate people tagging me in ridiculous posts, I hate it more when people are actually commenting in those ridiculous posts, and I hate it MORE when a LOT of people are commenting in those ridiculously stupid post. It makes me realize that there are a lot of people who are so — to make a comment on that post. And what I hate MOST are the notifications on my email bulking up in my email. Jeez! I have more messages coming in from those ridiculous posts than my spam folders.

Code name

Thursday, August 20th, 2009

Training is progressing as expected. After the first and second day which was really boring with financial terms and vocabulary, the third day was still boring but we studied English punctuation, blah, blah, blah. But enough about that.

Tatlong araw na pero di ko pa rin maalala ang mga pangalan nila, so I created code names for them. Code names of traits that I can easily associate with them and as we go along baka maalala ko na yng pangalan pag tumagal. I used to be bad when giving code names before but I guess we get nicer with age. Nagme-mellow down ika nga!

Sorry, Customer Service

Tuesday, March 18th, 2008

I had a bad week. Sya nga pala, minumungkahi ko na patugtugin nyo ito habang binabasa ang post na ito, yan yung nagpe-play sa utak ko habang nagmumukmok ako, medyo wala nga lang relasyon sa post ko ngayon…

I dedicate this song to everybody na nagmahal at nasaktan na may ganitong intensity… wala lang! Kunwari ako si Samson. Hahaha! Makapal ang mukha ko din…

[odeo=http://odeo.com/audio/8988253/view]

Bigla akong sumaya ngayon. Volatile ako emotionally at mabuti nga na di muna ako lumabas ng bahay at baka may mabiktima pa ako tulad ng PLDT Customer Service Representative.

The Pinoy Wasteland Foundation

Thursday, February 28th, 2008

It’s been two years since I last posted or mentioned anything about The Pinoy Wasteland Foundation. Now that I am out of work and a lot of people who visit this blog may not know what it is all about (or probably have forgotten about it), it’s about time I reintroduce the foundation again.

The Pinoy Wasteland Foundation (PWF) is a Non Government Organization (thank Heavens) that provides financial assistance to people in need; especially devoted to talented and highly intelligent people who can not sustain their lifestyle due to the country’s lack of employment opportunities befitting these group of skilled workers. We are here not to patronize, but to give them an extra push to never give up on their dreams (no matter how silly it maybe).

How to Respond Normally

Wednesday, February 27th, 2008

I have to admit that I am abnormal. I don’t really act normal. And sometimes I’d like to respond like a normal person but most of the time, I can’t do it. I would like to think I am a well-rounded person but I guess not. Normal is not relative (maybe it is relative, wala lang… I have a thing when using is relative coz people at my old work throws the words like they grasp what it really means, maybe they do but I just hate it when people use the words that I use).

I think ab-normal is being different to the general majority. And pretty much what I do is different from what most people do. Someone told me I am only thinking that. Maybe it is all in the mind (I hear spooky echoes). I can’t make my mind work normal thoughts.

I need to look for work now

Tuesday, February 5th, 2008

I’ve been unemployed for how long now… I think 3 weeks and I think I should start looking for work.

Then I got scared. Will I ever find work?! I earn how much and will I be able to settle for anything less?

As much as I’d like to prolong the slacker’s life and being a fridge-raider, I need to go jobhunting soon. Mahirap din magpa-cute sa magulang mo sa bahay.

Suddenly, I ask myself if quitting my job was a good decision… Then I have to remind myself why: no personal and professional growth. And if I don’t leave now, I won’t leave anytime soon kasi manghihinayang ako sa tenure. At if umalis man ako sa dako roon magiging bitter lang ako.

My parents are also getting annoying. I love them to death but I really find them irritating if you spend too much time with them. Maybe it’s the age gap. I still love them but they can be so persistent sometimes and too inquisitive, I just want to flee.

I am running out of money right now.

Freeloader ako sa gimik. Nakakahiya man aminin, makapal ang mukha ko pagdating sa libre, you don’t need to ask me twice. May kinang ang aking mga mata pag narinig ko ang word na libre. It’s pathetic. I really need to look for a job. I really do. Pati load ng cellphone ko malapit na maubos. Tapos, wala na akong pangkain pag di ko gusto yung ulam. Dapat pala nag-prepare ako.

Replenishing the loss

Saturday, January 26th, 2008

I have quit my job and joined the ranks of those who are in between jobs. Yeah, I am now a bum… as makoy translates: hampaslupa. And I am freaking proud of it. I am giddy with delight the past days, I think it has something to do with not working and pretending to be happy when you’re not. I wouldn’t even call my disappearance a real hiatus, I was surprised I was able to get it together in a couple of days just after tendering my resignation. I don’t know why some people at work made a big deal about it.

I am trying to restore what I have lost when I worked which is mostly my brain. I think I’ve gotten really stupid. Maybe it’s just me but I felt really stupid.

Fragments of the week

Sunday, January 6th, 2008

I am trying to write but inspiration evades me… Grabe! Ang hirap magsulat. I think my passion for writing though still there, has been so evasive, I can’t write or think right. Wala lang. Hanggang blog posts na lang ako. Hehehe! At dahil in disarray pa rin ang isip ko, random post ngayon:

Note to myself

Wednesday, November 21st, 2007

  • Think of better things to write about. Just look at the post I am making today.
  • Discover new writers (blogs, books, etc.)
  • Disable 43things notification. Medyo nakakarindi na yung Gain Weight goal ko. Di ko naman ginagawa, tinatamad ako mag-login at i-disable.
  • Change my Friendster layout. Matagal ko nang di nababago.
  • Be nicer to people. I am nice, I mean, try to show people how nice I really am.
  • Stop talking about sex. I think I am obsessing over it recently.
  • Never drink with people who aren’t friends. Yung last post ko naging talk of the team. Nakakahiya.
  • Go see a doctor. Medyo kailangan ko na rin maging health conscious.
  • Read all my books, watch all the DVDs I bought. Medyo dumadami sila na tumatambak.
  • Make my wishlist and shamelessly post it everywhere. Christmas and birthday (December 27). Don’t forget. I-post sa friendster, email sa lahat.
  • Draw the line. I need to know my place sometimes medyo nakakalimot.
  • Send my condolences to the people I know who suffers, show affection to the people I love, and make efforts to be friends with people I am fond of.  In short, show some emotions. Kinikilabutan na ako. Oh! The agonizing torture!
  • Ayusin na yung dapat ayusin sa domain na ito. Puro plano pero as usual tinatamad pa rin.
  • Hulugan yung account ko sa banko na limang libo lang ang laman. Halos 2 taon na ako sa trabaho pero wala pa rin akong ipon.
