-- a slEepY dAy

s0oooo sleEpy. i gOt home at around 10pm already last night.. after the game, we rushed for some dinner. atE anNa was reallY exhausted na.. she came straight to phil spOrts after her mOrning duty from mEd citY. actually, ganun din naman ako, after work din. and take note!! we have to work pa today (6am-2pm). im so tired. who's complaining?? ako! ahaha.. =p atleast, sherwin's schedule is not as tight as ours. that's a good thing, since he arrived 30 minutes earlier than i did. he bought us tickets.. malapit lang nman ako sa venue, that's why i left the office late na. fourth quarter of feu vs up, when ate anna arrived. feu won. though UP could have won the game.. sayang nga eh.

worth all effort.. ang ganda ng game ng admu. there was this rebound play.. chris tiu acted funny. maybe the rest of the crowd haven't seen it, or most probably..pretended not to see. hahahaha..

i'll be seeing my friends tonight.. im excited sa draft.. not because of the draftees though. =p bleh!!..

p.s. just want to comment on what happened after the game.. haii.. [dug out scene].. andaming tao. what would you expect? superstar chris tiu ba naman. but what happened was both irritating and depressing. some people really dont understand the concept of the word "LIMITATION". . the crowd literally pushed and threw themselves at the guy.. wala na nga syang nagawa eh..ngiti pa din. picture pa din. though we know na nagmamadali sya.. his parents were there eh. so kami naman, kay charles [kapatid ni chris] na lang nagpa-pic.. ^__^ hehe..

day of thoughts

first: Being a SMART employee is great!!

why?: i get to have P1500 load every month. hahaha.. sorry friends, [it's] not transferable. Salary deduction yun. =p
: i will be a regular employee soon, by then i can enjoy bonuses and VLs.. ^__^

second: Ate anna is so addicted to _***

why's that? : she invited me to watch tom's game.. [well,she'll be paying my tix so i said ok.^_^]
: she asked me if im also available for a quick peek at trinoma on aug31. i told her that we're supposed to be at Market that afternoon for the draft.. and she says we'll go straight to market after trinoma. waaaaa.. im not thinking twice, she's indeed addicted to __**... nhahawa ata ako?? hahahaha =p

third: i texted my Immediate Superior earlier.

why: to confirm my attendance sa CORE Caravan [an activity required for regularization.. you get to have free lunch at Max's and play stuffs with co-employees from other dept].. he said that i should confirm first with sir Lito [my immediate supervisor] regarding the schedule.. and guess what!! sir Lito's hesitant to let me file it [the caravan] for Over Time. haii.. ang hirap mag OT kay sir Lito.. hehehe

fourth: my parents borrowed my last salary.

reaction: i-am-so-broke
:hahahahaha =p

honestly.. wala akong maisip na maraming sasabihin.. basta na-mimiss ko na kayo. yun lang.

inaantok nako.. pero kelangan ko mag duty.. so mags-senti na lang muna ako.. pwede ba yun? hehe

ewan ko.. pero kung pwede ko lang ibalik yung dati.. i will still do the things that i have done.. go places with you and experience that part of my life all over again. kung meron man akong gustong baguhin.. that would be the wasted moments.. the weakened bond.. the dangling friendship..

when i look back in my life.. given that we're only at our early twenties.. it's nice to remember so many things and nice to know that I have learned so much. even though most of my memories of our plight are happenings and enjoyments.. i can say that most of my life's toughest lessons were also spent with you guys. i have learned what "amats" means.. that's for one. haha but really, i am missing those moments.. time spent cracking jokes.. laughing on each one.. playing.. singing.. and even those rare moments that we spent doing nothing.

bare with me on this..

but really,

i miss you peepz..

ripley's hosted by chris tiu..

..ate anna mentioned it one time.. "hindi bagay kay chris mag tagalog".. the topic that time was the new show of GMA7.. ripley's believe it or not hosted by chris tiu. i got intrigued since i haven't seen it yet..

well..today is the second airing of the show and i am here at the office.. night duty. i streamed GMA through net.. and guess what! i was able to watch it. here's a cut of the show..


apologies for the background noise.. my colleagues were playing NBA live.. hehehe.. and the vid was shot using a cam phone.. sa laptop lang ako watch.. xenxa.. =p

alone.. but not lonely

im quite enjoying my duty.. im the only one here at the room.. this is actually the second day. Lara's not here.. she's supposed to be my partner on this shift but she's on leave. im ok, so it's ok. haha.. in between monitoring routines, im watching 'House'.. yep, Dr. House... the cynical doctor but brilliant with his profession. i'd rather have a cynic doctor but good.. than a nice one and bad on what he does. im learning stuffs on the series.. so i guess watching a sick doctor wouldn't be so bad an idea.. haha..

i ordered a big mac for lunch.. with apple pie for dessert.. ^__^ yumm.. eeehh.. im starved. so you cant actually blame me for eating so much. ^__^ hahahaha

i am still weighing wether i'd watch the game at araneta today.. hhMMmm.. i'll think about it some more..

verge of starts.. and ends..

so sad that this coming Philippine cup, two of the PBA vets are retiring. kuya rey and noy are now giving up their positions in the team. well, that's basketball for you.. some will have to go and new ones will fill the vacant spaces.

i really enjoyed yesterday's game. ADMU and UE. both are great teams. i have always enjoyed watching these two talented teams. ever growing.. ever improving..

way back in highschool.. back when LA was still a rookie.. i have always believed on the team's winning prowess. but when james yap and paul artadi happened, i have split my attention.. and started noticing this other team... UE. and now.. after so many years, i still stand on my belief that.. UE trains better players among other given teams. though.... as always, when it comes down to just these two, ateneo will still be my bet. =p dont ask! ahahaha

and now.. after several years have passed, i still watch these teams once in a while.. and find pleasure on seeing them win. James, Paul, LA, JC, Rico, et al.. are now playing pro. and the two teams already secured themselves a new generation of superb players.. Tiu and Reyes among eagles, Arellano and Martinez among warriors... who will be the next generation's "hard court heartthrobs"?? well, that will have to wait.. hahaha

22nd

prAk would start on the 22nd.. haii.. i have an early schedule at work, so i wont make it. i can ofcourse drop by for a while.. hhMmm.. that's an idea. ^_^ i would try to go there during break.

tomorrow's my rest day. i really am gonna take my due rest. ^__^ im tired.

i really missed Makati

been long since the last time i've been to makati. oh well, not that long.. but i got used to Makati environment back in college. just imagine more than 3 years of my life roaming around the area.. doing stuffs that are either academe related or just pure fun.. i really missed the city.

today, i got a little time off work.. i picked up my service sim at our main office.. then went to glorietta after. glo looked the same since the last i saw it.. and G2 is still under construction.. mai (tropa back in college) joined me for dinner.. we ate at chicken bacolod G1.. the crab fat rice taste good.. well.. i regret ordering it, hours after dinner. high in cholesterol. especially when we've ordered bangus belly and sizzling beef sisig along with it. these are stuffs we have definitely enjoyed having, but risked our health in return. i am a big food fan. but why would i pay for something expensive and unhealthy? impractical huh?? hahaha.. so.. that's it. would you ask me if i would never eat the above mentioned food ever again? well the answer is simple.. i'll eat those again, given a chance to.. but wont eat them altogether again.. hehehe =p

value your life

life is not something permanent.. it could be gone in an instant.

late last night, i've received an sms from a friend back in highschool.. i've maintained my communication with them and glad that we could catch up with each other every once in a while.. though at busy times, i often refuse on meetings and get together/s. so.. last night.. i was still at in the office preparing on going home, when i received the message. i didnt reply on it since im in a hurry to ride a cab. until i went to bed.. slept.. and forgot all about it. early this morning, like every morning.. first thing i reach for when i wake up is my phone.. see what time is it.. and check if there are messages. then i saw that SMS.. read what it says.. "cris, have you heard about Bardos? schoolmate natin in highschool?" i got curious and replied.. why, what's with him? thinking that maybe it was another case of "gf's pregnant.. got married.." thing. but the reply i received says he died.. ulcer. waaahh.. i was shocked. the reply i sent to my highschool friend is the one i would like to share with you....


the incident just proves one thing.. it doesnt mean we're young, we're not prone to illness anymore.

got me thinking.. do we really value our lives?? have we taken care of it? are we taking care of it?

a thursday of realizations..

hMmm.. i dont like him. i dont feel like liking him. Please dont make me explain why, i cant. i know, it's insane not to like this guy. cmon, who says he's close to perfect?? i certainly agree. dont get me wrong.. i still see this guy as dashing and as talented as ever.. it's just that, i dont have good vibes. i believed and still believe the things that i heard about him.. that he's grounded and nice and approachable and all the things related. but when i saw him, right there, right in front of me.. i felt intimidated. i felt out of place. even though he's not doing anything to make me feel that way. but that is what i felt. it's close to instinct. how am i supposed to know..?? well, i should not try to know anymore..

simply put, i dont and cant like him anymore.

a nice game.. and an upcoming one

hMm.. i'll be watching tOmorrow's game. iM excited. ^__^ iM nOt a collEge bAll fan. last tiMe i'vE followed a wholE sEason was wAy bAck 2004. it's nicE tO thiNk thAt i'll bE wAtchiNg a livE gAMe agAin of cOllEgE tEams.

hMmm.. antAgal kC nG PBA.. ^__^

gone in just a short span of time

waaaa.. it was just right there. but after sometime (estimate:less than 48 hours), it's not there anymore.. hmm.. funny how fast it was taken from me. i've worked hard. i've earned it. yet......

what am i talking about?? ..ah, nothing. just.. just.. MONEY. =(

hehehe.. im not THAT depressed. just want to stress out that im such a spender. and im not happy about it. just cant believe i've bought a dvd player. and a flat screen. when i've wanted to save... haii.. could do nothing but sigh in frustration.. hahaha.. til next blog entry..

sawa factor

losing interest.. hMm.. sEarchiNg abOut a pArticulAr tOpiC, aNd fiNding the sAme rEsUlts ovEr aNd ovEr, wOuld rEallY wEar oFf yOur cUriOusity. thOugh i dOnt wAnNa giVe it Up yEt. whO kNows, sEeiNg this sUbjEct face to face..^__^

i miss watching basketball games.. i mean, watching it live. just yesterday, i glanced upon a game between mapua and baste. SSC won.. MIT lost,just another case of "selfish play". i kept on telling myself while watching "bakit nyo pinasa kay __, naman!!" or "maraming kakampi dba? (sarcastic)" hMp. bUt thE #4 gUy's dElivEriNg gOod. sAna wAg tUmulAd kAy ___. hahahaha

that's NCAA. ask me about U-AP? last UAAP game i've seen?? (this was on tV, cOz iM rEEeeaaaaLLy bUsy, hahahaha) ADMU vs UST game. Ateneo won. i've rEalized, jAi's reAlly gOod aNd mAtuRe alrEadY. hE'll bE a niCe additiOn to PBA sOmedAy (sOon). ^__^ heard he got married?? hahaha.. why am i talking about jai reyes? kC aNdAmi nG 2NgkOl kY chris tiU.. pAra mAibA nmAn.

a certified basketball observer. yea. though i dont play the game (shooting lang ang alam/kaya kong i-execute na play. take note: not beyond the free throw line =p), i still understand the concept of the sport. that doesnt give me any right to question a player's court decision, but iM still entitled of mY own opinion aYt? ^__^ so i am quoting : ALL COMMENTS WRITTEN ON THIS BLOG IS JUST MY SOLE OPINION. walang kontra. hahaha. beh =p

got another thought

i want someone smart. sports minded. musically inclined. business person. good looking would be a plus.. rich?? hhmm that can be too..And whoa!! there he is.. like trying to google these standards and the only search result is his name!! hahaha..

dreamin.. dreamin.. dreamin..

dont you worry.. this girl's gonna wake up in a little while.. hahahaha.. will realize soon that the guy she's wondering about wont even bother to throw her a second look.. not even a first look for that matter.

hhhmmm.. another part of my being is trying to voice out something.. let's hear her out:
i am writing about this today, and who knows.. in the near future, these dreams wont be dreams anymore..??

aawww.. you part of me should shut up now..

waaa.. turning crazy already.. ahaha.. gotta end this now. til next post. ^__^

message across

there'd been messages being whispered to each of us everyday. some, we understand on an instant.. some, we didn't catch.. some, we just refuse to hear.

there are even messages that we formulate ourselves.. we tell ourselves.. we realize.. we act upon.

lately, she's spending so much time on various chores.. tasks.. responsibilities.. she forgot to listen on those messages. took forgranted the messages she owed to herself. doesn't have time, she says. but tomorrow, while walking on a busy street, she will stop. she will realize. and she will act upon it. that's for sure.
