Pinoy Wasteland

Tinatamad ako kumilos, magsulat, magtrabaho, lahat kinatatamaran ko. Naasar ako sa mga pangyayari sa buhay ko… minsan gusto ko nang pumatay. Tama nga yung mga dati kong katrabaho na baka sumabog na ako.

Pagkatapos ng bond sa kontrata ko baka umalis na ako sa industriya na ito. Mag-aaral na lang ulit ako. Seryoso na. Huli na ang pagsisisi, dapat tinanggap ko na lang yung isa pang trabaho dati.

Sandali na lang itong blog na ito. Oras na mag-expire ‘to ipapahinga ko na lalo pa’t ang mga dati kong kaibigan sa Internet ay nawawala na rin sa sirkulasyon. Pero di  muna ngayon, sayang ang binayad ko.

Alam nyo na kung saan ako hahanapin.

We just moved to a new house last week. That explains a lot of my lack of online activity (besides being not in the mood to make anymore posts), the new house has no phone right now but at least we have electricity, cable and running water. That’s good enough for me. If it is bad enough that I have to do a daily commute from Antipolo to Ayala, now I am farther now (still in Antipolo though).

The house is nicely located in a homey subdivision much more quiet than our old house. It has a clubhouse with a swimming pool court, gym and basketball court (as if I am interested in any form of recreational physical activity).

I haven’t been doing much in my life right now, normally, I have time to contemplate on stuff like my life purpose but I can’t seem to do it right now.

It feels so long since the last time I worked on a computer for leisure. And I think I am not alone in noticing that old-time bloggers are dwindling and are off doing other things.

IT WILL TAKE TIME FOR ME TO KEEP UP WITH WHAT I WAS DOING BEFORE. Too many things to do.

I think i won’t be writing as much as I used to. I don’t know. Work, life, everything. And nothing exciting goes along my way.

I might not renew my domain registration. It’s just two months to go before that expires.

I still get to keep my job after last week’s absence. It’s a good thing, I think although I really don’t like what I do that much.

In a way, I am like how I was in college now minus the enthusiasm for philosophy and Internet activity. I am back to being a loner, it’s a good thing, believe me.

My girlfriend is OK now. It is a relief. She’s home and will be looking for a job maybe this week.

I am running out of money, and that IS always NEVER good. And I am supposed to earn more money than most people. I think I should look for a house in Makati. I like living in my place in Antipolo but it is impractical to commute and all.

Speaking of impracticality, I feel sorry for really practical people who see the world as black and white, I really do. But that is another matter of extensive explanation by which I am in no mood to speak of.

Til next time, maybe sooner than you think.

Ang init ng panahon. Buti na lang nakuha ko yung backpay ko (disappointingly small, letse!) at may panggastos na ulit ako. Guto ko lumabas ng bahay ng madalas dahil wala kaming aircon. At parang torture ang paglalagi doon.

Madalas ako tumambay sa bahay ng kaibigan ko pero sa kasamaang palad, yung apartment nya ay parang toaster (in case na binabasa mo ito, small cute toaster na pink para di naman nakakainsulto). Wala na akong mapagtaguan.

Pati aso ko tinatamad tumayo.

Magastos ang mag-mall.

Mahilig ako matulog ng tanghali pero di ko magawa kasi mainit. Parang sumisilab ang balat ko!

Ang init di naman ako nag-iinit.

I met up with the fat albino girl in charge of me signing the pact. She smiled sweetly at me, “It’s nice to see you again.”

I sighed, and with my pen, I signed the contract that I have already read yesterday.

I accepted the Technical Support job that pays a lot of money. Call me a sellout but I need money badly. It pays much higher than my old job, so that’s good. It was really hard to come up with a decision. I was torn between the Business Development Officer job.

The BD job appears to be exciting but it’s 10,000 less. Like I said, mahirap lang kami. I have responsibilities.
