I have my afternoon already planned: no blog posting for today.
But something pushed me to act against my plan. The Kiwi video from Wits’. And as Wits said in his own post, "it is IMPERATIVE to watch the video before proceeding with the rest of the post". GO on, watch it na.
One thing is for sure. It hit me. Bigtime. I watched it a couple of times more before I able to digest it. Undeniably, daig pa ako nung kiwi, kasi it knew what it wanted.
Windand ako sa mga questions na binato ni Wits sa mga readers nya. Hmm. Wala akong nasagot. Sa pagkakaalala ko, meron akong post about being honest with yourself, being brave to ask questions whose answers you know would shake your own sanity.
Anyhoo, the kiwi video reminded me of Jonathan Livingston Seagul (by Richard Bach). Google search nyo na lang kasi tamad akong magbigay ng synopsis.
Ilang linggo na lang ga-graduate na ‘ko. Nakakatakot. Nakakatakot kasi hindi ko alam ang gusto ko. Feeling ko babagsak ako sa mga ina-applyan kong trabaho, kasi kapag tatanungin nila ako kung MAHAL ko ba ang pag-pro-program at kung handa ba ako na gawin ito for the next five or ten years of my life, hindi ko alam ang isasagot ko. Basta kailangan ko ng trabaho. Pero hindi ko alam kung anong gusto ko. SCARY diba? At isa pa, hindi ko alam kung saan ako magaling. Mas lalong scary.
Nakakatawa na nakakatakot. Nakakawindang. Nakaka-flip. Bukas magkkwento ulit ako. Bukas na lang ulit. Natatamad na ‘ko eh. Bleh. =p
You wouldn’t believe what I did to my laptop.
I downloaded Disney Themes, Disney wallpapers, and Disney Icons. Now, my laptop is all yellow and candy-like. Weeee. I’m quite happy about it though. I asked Louis to download the latest version of Stardock’s WindowBlinds so I can use my Disney skin. And I asked him also to find out how to replace the icons. He downloaded Icon Packager, also from Stardock, and there goes the Disney Icons. Really, it’s all fun and exciting. I really feel like a kid again, with all these fairy tales and story and Disney and babydolls and toys and.. yes.. a whole lot of fun while working.
Here are screenshots of my Disney laptop. *wink*
The Desktop *look at my wallpaper! So princesssy! *wink**
The Icons *aren’t they cute? =) *
What’s with life insurance? I just noticed, I’ve written sponsored posts about life insurance companies and websites for more than a hundred now. Ok, that’s an exaggeration. But seriously, these guys really want to have a slice on your pages every now and then. I hate it but I can’t just say no or something. And yes, real estates and surgeries! They never fail to annoy me. Agh. But again, I just can’t ignore the ads or else my account in different money making programs will be suspended. Bottom line of my grudge, i have to make a post containing the phrase life insurance but I can’t think of any topic to related to life insurance that is also related to me. *But look, I came up with something, hahaha*
Some homeowners overlook the importance of maintaining an elegant bathroom. They are contented with the fact that their bathroom is usable and clean. I, personally would not want to have just a typical bathroom. My dream bathroom has a modernist style, a pleasing aroma and a light aura. I also want minimal but high quality bathroom fixtures. I don’t want to put plants in my bathroom. Some say that plants in a bathroom might help in producing dengue carrying mosquitos. I believe that bathrooms should have at least a sense of style and sophistication.
I usually experience bum days perhaps two or three times a month. This is the day where I feel so lazy and my legs seem to lack the energy to walk. This is also the day where I feel so in love with my pillows and bed. During bum days, I feel like I just want to sleep and dream for the rest of the day. Give me some Shutterfly coupons please! Or perhaps a shopping gift certificate. My head tells me to step out of the bed and face the world, but my slouchy body wouldn’t agree with it. You are missing half of your life I you haven’t had a bum day yet.
This meme came from Nightdreamer. And I said I’m going to do this. Hehe. So here’s the list:
1. Two weeks ago, I had an interview in Makati. Yeap, an interview for employment, the real thing you jump into after graduation. The interview went well. Hmmm, at least it didn’t make me feel like some pretty face without brains. I swear, I have never felt so UNINTELLIGENT before until my interview last week in Ortigas. I wasn’t really prepared about it or something. I know it’s my responsibility to ask whether the interview is an intial interview or a technical panel interview. I was really shivering and all, so tense and cold.
2. I am nursing a huge hatred directed at my former boyfriend for all the treacheries he has done. And I am also cursing all men who do the same to their partners. To hell with you.
3. I have seven blogs. Two were dormant. Three are active. And the other two are still on the baking pan.
4. I accidentally shoplifted two tootbrushes from Landmark mall in North EDSA. Honestly, it’s accidental. I put the articles under my armpit. I was wearing jacket then. No one ever noticed it, not even the security guards inspecting at the exit. I really did forget about it. Seriously. Oh well..
5. UP Fair started last Monday. It runs through the whole week. I was there the first three nights. I’m not really into rock bands and concerts and the like. I just wanted to be there, you know, just for the hell of it.
6. I bought a new dress. Big deal.
7. I quit maintaining a clutter-free room. I swear, it’s more stressful to de-clutter than to bear the clutter. Anyhoo, maybe one of these days.. *kapag sinipag ako hek hek*
8. I think I am failing my English 1 class. I can’t catch up with the requirements.*Delinquente*
9. I spitted on somebody’s face and gawd! It felt so good I want to do it again.
10. Nine is a joke.
Last week, I went to an optical shop to have my eyes checked. I just found out that I have an astigmatism. After obtaining the results from the resident eye doctor, I suddenly thought about using reading magnifiers. Luckily, my eyes weren’t that bad, well, at least compared to Louis’ ultra-weak-and-oh-so-blurry eyesight. As I can remember, his grade is almost 700. Poor kid. By the way, I am already using contact lenses. I started wearing contacts last month. Too bad, contacts won’t correct my astigmatism.
Sometimes, I tend to think about planning a stowaway escapade for no reasons at all. There are times when I just want to pack my bags, get out of the house and wander. Honestly, I am sick of my boarding house. I’ve been staying there for almost 6 months. I want to transfer to a new place, probably at Branson
I remember talking to someone how I wanted to spend my “honeymoon” if ever I marry (for some undeniable reasons, sometimes I feel like never marrying at all, after what happened to me and to my past relationship). I said: After the grand wedding, with at least 300 guests attending it, I want the most expensive “honeymoon” I can imagine. And what would be more expensive than around the world cruises?
I can imagine
I have been receiving lots of emails telling me that I have just won thousands of dollars from a lottery. Others kept sending updates about my current status as a lottery winner. Others will inform me that my email address was randomly and luckily picked out of millions of entries around the world. If every single lottery email was as real as gold, then I might be the richest person in the world. If that’s the case, I’ll start paying for my favorite Technomarine watch and my dream smart car.
