AWESOME!

awesome.

i signed it today

i got a job. it has been a long time and i forgot how to do it all. the application the forms, the drug test, stool sample, blood test, x-ray, breast exam, BIR, Pag-ibig, SSS. EXHAUSTING!!!

yesterday they called me and told me they have a job offer for me. anytime that i am free, i would just drop by and see if i want the job. of course i do. thats why i applied and its the only company i applied for. i dont want to explain myself to the people who still thinks im just bumming around for the past year.

i just dont give a fuck!!!

these are all parts of my plan. i just didn't know that this would be first in line. i know i said i dont like working anymore. but everything don't always go according to plan. so here i am again.

how am i suppose to breathe with no air?

i just cant believe 4hours ago i was sitting in araneta coliseum watching hot nekkid guys strut their stuff. and they got some stuff to strut.

Bench had their very famous denim/underwear fashion show in Araneta Coliseum. Blackout.

with the right connections, you can get invites to the hottest fashion show ever. hot meaning steamy.. i feel like a celebrity or something. last minute i asked my dad to get us tickets to the fashion show from tito ben. my dad being away, i double-checked if he got us tickets. and he gave 2 VIP tickets for the show. i love it. VIP. so i am important i guess.

got there earlier coz i thought my friend would be early as she always is. to my surprise i guess she wanted to get me for all the times i made her wait or something, she kept me waiting for almost 2 hours. when she arrived i kinda forgave her. she looked like she came from an earthquake or something. she actually just rode the MRT. amazing how riding the train would do that to you.

i was uber-excited that i wasnt able to really sleep last night. thinking of all the nekkid guys i would be seeing. just thinking about it makes my beat skip a beat and my lungs stop breathing for a second. we were both a little tired so we decided to go inside the coliseum earlier so that we can relax more. guess what? i wasn't able to relax. being on the 8th row just around 5meters away from the stage, air air air!?!?!?!

people are piling up inside. famous people are just around the corner. i can't believe im seated with them. i may not be famous but im somewhere. haha feeling!!! well i saw that i wouldnt be able to scream and go wild when the show starts. everyone around looked so demure and sophisticated. i had to learn how to contain myself in 30 minutes. that was hard. i had to be like everybody else. hay!

as the show is starting, i just held my breath, men!! men!! men!!! now i know im older. i think about them all the time. and now they're right infront of me. nekkid! with all their beauty! i love it. i was thinking of taking a picture of everything. but because the models were moving too fast, my digital camera couldn't capture them. i had to use the flash. i wanted take everything. i wanted to have a memory saved in my harddrive. i want them. i need them. oh baby! oh baby! haha am i horny or what? haha

well i wanted to take pictures of butts, everything i saw. but i was just too embarrassed. the only flash was coming from me. i had to change my tactics. go for the cameo.

it doesnt have the best results but im fine with it. keeping it forever in my private files. i wanted to be there infront taking pictures of the models. like the photographers were there shooting away. it would have been good lomo pictures for me.

so maybe you're thinking the show was full of men. well they're the once i want to remember. but there are hot chicks in the center stage. Ehra Madrigal, Francine Prieto, Ruffa Mae QUinto, Priscilla Meirrelles and many more female models. some of these models came out with only body paint on them. and some wearing almost nothing except a net-like jumpsuit. woah! something for the men to dream about. wahaha

seeing them in the ramp. i wanted to get my hands on the underwear they were wearing. i was wearing a bench underwear and i love it. its very comfortable. i want to say im the biggest endorser of bench. i buy almost everything from their store. i even get my hair fix'd. i want to go shopping again for undies. bench is the best.

i say this with all my heart. i love bench. they are the best really. i would say it again. bench is the best. they get the hottest guys in town and they are just to die for. watching them i feel my undies falling off while i was sitting down. hahaha thats how hot and steamy they are. mcsteamies and mcdreamies of manila.

i told my tito it is the best gift i have received this year for my birthday. i've been wanting to get a box with a hot nekkid guy inside. and i got a stage full of them. *sigh* thinking can i ask my tito when can i party with the boys? *sigh* was there an after party? i would die right then and there. i couldnt even get to speak if i was infront of them.

a little preview....

bring home the hickey

so my brother is really getting old. he got his first hickey. no sorry make that two. one on his neck and the other on his ear. i really dont know how his girlfriend did it. but there is one on the outer lobe. it was so funny coz he was trying to hide it from everyone. but my other brother and i immediately spotted it and laughed real hard.

my mum was scolding him for some other reason and he doesnt want my mum to find it. him having a girlfriend made my mum go wild already. what would have happened if she saw the hickey. haha i couldnt stop laughing. thinking about it now, i still can't stop laughing. i wanted to stop laughing so i just sang a song. but the words that came out of my mouth sa still "chikinini" song (tagalog for hickey). then i start laughing again. he was trying to conceal it. good thing he had these acne overnight patches. it wasn't as big as the hickey but it will do. he asked me to put concealer on it but it didnt work.

he just has to live with it. haha. he has to be careful. these things are just a recipe for disaster inside the house. my mum would go ballistic and the house would never see the end of noise ever again.

i got spanked

yes. my mum spanked me. the first in my room she got hold of is a hanger and she whipped me real hard twice and threw the thing at me. i was so drunk to even feel it that i just dozed back to sleep.

friday night, i went out with my friend, Nuel. we were suppose to watch a movie but instead he went home and i went to my cousin's house, Don. I told my mum i was with my other cousin and we are going to watch a movie and eat and gonna drop off the organ i borrowed from a friend but i just lied about everything. We played Texas Holdem and drank and just had fun. they're area is so far that there are no cabs around when i wanted to go. so i just stayed and drank my ass off.

Got to watch a chick punch an irritating guy in the face three times. it was so funny but time was so fast. i had to go home. the sun is rising already and my mum cant know that i wasnt home yet. so i asked them to drop me off somewhere theres a cab. but because its so early in the morning, the LRT is already open. i rode the train and got home around 6:45am and my mum knows i came around 2:30am. what a liar i am!?!?!?! i might be so good at lying that they would never catch me ever.

I was just quiet in my room the whole day till i got dressed up that saturday night ready to hit the birthday bash of my good friend, San. So i go out and mommy thinks i would obey her and the curfew she gave me. NO WAY! in the five years i have been friends with San, this is the first i wasn't sick on her birthday. so i had to be there at all times till the thing is done. if i did tell my mum that im gonna be late, she wouldnt let me out of the house. im not that stupid. i had to lie.

i was there and it was so noisy. the music was so loud i know i wouldnt hear her calling or texting me. so i didnt have it on silent mode. so i just drank and drank till the birthday girl got drunk. and we had to go home. i tipsy already but i was fine. San on the other hand cant walk straight. i ahd to almost carry her to her car. when she was sitting inside already. i got into a cab and went straight home.

after just an hour of sleep, my mum opens my room and shouts at me what time i came home. so i said that i arrived before 3am. as i did. but she doesn't believe me. she reaches to the floor as the hanger was there. and came to me, hitting me with the hanger three times in the legs. she was about to leave and was saying something about what an asshole i am but i couldnt understand that much. she threw the hanger at me. everything was such a blur. the alcohol is settling down inside my body. i couldn't feel a thing. i just dozed back to sleep until i felt like puking. it was already 8 in the morning but i just stood up gently and went down to fill up a bottle of water. my mum saw me and asked if i was drunk and i just denied it.

drank water and felt better. dozed back to sleep again and woke up just in time for lunch.

feel like a kid again. getting scolded coz i came home late. i think thats how it is. get spanked with a hanger or the belt. the inanimate object nearest to you. of course convenience is important. my mum was telling the story to my dad. papa just came home from boracay. and because my mum was so PO'd he just told me that i was wrong and not really that mad about it. so that my mum would see that i get punished or soemthing. my dad called up san and asked about the party. of course i was hoping she would remember. but she didn't.

as san was talking to my dad, i was just beside him. she was saying that she went home around 1:30 and i stayed with her officemates. well i just laughed at it all. this event will be remembered for the rest of my life. of course if look at my leg right now, i have this thin bruise from the hanger, then i start laughing. well thats what i get from lying and from disobeying your parents. bwahahaha

i might be grounded too, by the way. but then im still gonna do what i want. just lie about stuff and i can go. just go home early this time. haha

manila sucks

i say this from the bottom of my heart. manila sucks! it is so fucking hot im sweating in every part of my body. and it sucks you have to change clothes every time.

a week ago we arrived in taipei. for my past blogs, i was giving full details of the day-to-day trip. but the last two days was so exhausting i didn't have the energy to write one. so here it is.

so on saturday morning, we were all so tired to even get up but there were places we haven't been to. so off we go to the reservoir. two cities get there water from this dam. and it is where we got the water we used to take a bath that morning. cool huh? that day was the day i was in-charge of taking my lola. so i didn't walk a lot but once i get my lola to sit down for about 5 minutes. i run to spots where i can take pictures. and might i add. i only get a shorter time than 5 minutes because my lola can't stand being in one place. just like me. so it actually runs in the family.

so we get there and its already time for lunch. just about 30 minutes of taking lots of pictures for us. yes that runs in the family as well. my dad, my brothers, my cousins... literally we are all camwhores. half the time that we are in taiwan, we were taking pictures. smiling and posing for the cameras ( lots of them too). proof would be over 2000 pictures that we sifting through to print out.

lunch time we went to this fish restaurant. i forgot the name. i wrote it down on my notebook. but its not with me right now. so lets get back to the story. In this restaurant you order one big fish and they cook it in different dishes. And every dish was so good we forgot to take pictures. As if we were all hungry already from the one hour trip to the reservoir. Sometimes it feels like we are always hungry. We almost never ate lunch, dinner at the right time. But we always ate. If we didn’t we wouldn’t be a big family.

After eating we had to go to the comfort room and lola cant use the restroom where you have to squat and I can’t either so I can wait but lola can’t. so gary, the Taiwanese tour guide who is based in the Philippines asked the owner of the place if they have one. And they did only in the guy’s restroom. Lola went inside and as I was waiting, a couple of men came in and started peeing, I was so shocked coz I didn’t here them come in. maybe they thought I was a pervert or something. So on our way out, I was facing the wall so as not to see them. And off we go back to Taipei to go shopping. the next best thing we are good at during vacation trips. I don’t think I have ever been to any trip abroad where I didn’t buy something for myself and for pasalubong. I don’t think any Filipino can do that.

After doing some shopping in Nik outlet, Giordano, etc. we stopped for coffee in starbucks. It’s the coffeeshop you can never go wrong with. It’s universal. So sip sip sip while waiting for everyone. Then off we went to find the famous Japanese burger place called Mos Burger. And it is famous for a reason. Their burgers are really really good. You have to try it. So we called up ate for her to meet us up near Taipei 101. that day she met up with Lomo Taiwan for a shoot. So she met up with us and we got there we were all tired to go around that we just sat down in a coffeeshop at the top floor, called Mr. Brown Coffee. We drank and took pictures until it was time to meet up with the others.

Once we got home we were all really tired but we had to go to the supermarket still to purchase some last minute pasalubong and also a stop in McDonalds to get a bite to eat. So in Mcdonalds they have this meal, with chicken fries and drink only. It is so cheap that you can eat a lot. And even without ketchup you can just use there pepper powder that really tastes good and you are good to go. We ordered the food to go and ate the food in the hotel room while we were packing. And packing for me was disappointing because I left one thing in the hotel room. I actually don’t know what happened to it. I bought this notebook in starbucks and it has three cute stamps in it. And it was in a box and because there were a lot of boxes around my luggage, I might have placed the box with the other garbages. And it really sucks. And that’s how the story ends. I don’t want to give any details to the last day where we were just eating breakfast on our way to the airport and in the airport. Because it is the same old thing. Nothing new…

Manila still sucks. Right this very minute I am missing how cold it is in the morning when I wake up and take a shower. How I use hot water while taking a bath. Manila sucks. I want to go back to a place where it is cold.

Another step in Taiwan

Another step for me and my whole family in Taiwan. One hell of a trip from the city to the zoo. Everyone was late for breakfast. After using the internet last night, we had to stop by the brewery in the lobby to check out the beer. Of course it was already late and the bar was going to close down at 12mn. It was already 1130 when we entered the bar so we only had 30 minutes to have just one round of beer. It tastes so good we had to go back tonight with the gary, michelle and of course my cousins felice and chrissie.

Before I even get into details with what happened tonight, today was the third day and it is the day to go to the zoo and to ride the cable car. Because we are so tired, we only got to go to the Taipei zoo. It is so big so we had to get our lola on a wheelchair. Something not advisable to do when there are a lot of slopes going up and down. We saw lots of animals inside. Penguins, elephants, monkeys, bears, koala, zebra, muntjac, frogs, alligators, snakes, tortoise, turtle, salamander, iguana, and many more I can’t even remember. I just took lots of pitures of the animals I saw or those who are at sight.

After eating lunch at mcdonalds, we decided not to ride the cable car because it will take us an hour to buy tickets. No way, jose! So shopping is the next best thing. AWWWW. Electronics section is the next stop. Everyone just expressed happiness when gary said electronics. Cheap as it can be. Here in Taiwan, electronics are known to be cheaper than any other. I wish I have money to spend.

Dinner of machang and soup and misua. I didn’t like it that much but because I was hungry, I just ate.

A visit in the night market for the second time was amazing. The more you go inside the market, the cheaper things get. But be careful, you might lose your way and not make it to the time you are suppose to meet with your friends. I bought lots of cool stuff for pasalubongs and for me. My friends and family would really like them. I kinda noticed while shopping that I buy more stuff when im under time pressure. I feel like this will be the last chance when it is here is Taiwan but not totally true as a whole.

So we went back riding 3 cabs. We went to the pub in the hotel lobby and drank beer. We got a little tipsy and hungry that we decided to visit the supermarket. Which was my reason for going out so late to my dad. We bought food and food and food.

Now its too late and I should be the first one to wake up in 3 hours. I better sleep and tomorrow is another day and the final step to reach nirvana in the land of HCG. haha

Taiwan Step 2

second day in taiwan and it started raining. and it got a little cold. so its a good thing i didn't listen to my dad when he told me not to bring a jacket with me.

before i forget... when i was talking about the hotel that we were staying in, did i mention we have free porn? yes, we do have free porn. and my brothers are jealous because in their room they have none. so for those who have some asian fettish. they would like the porn.

going back! today was too much. too much fun, too exhausting and too fattening. i woke up 7am and went to the shower immediately. and got ready waited for everyone to finish while watching an english movie in HBO that was about equality in education to the chicanos! "viva la raza". breakfast was free from the hotel and we headed to the cafe and ate waffles, bagel sandwiches and burritos for breakfast.

we were already running a little late so right after breakfast we hopped to a new pimping bus to the national museum of treasures. it was really educational but unfortch pictures are not allowed inside so we waited till we were outside to take pictures. i never knew anyone that perspire in photo ops. but we do... eveytime we do take pictures, we end up perspired and exhausted in the end coz of a lot of jump and running and changing of cameras(the heavy ones). so after taking all the energy we had on that we went for quick bite in the city called formosa chang which is a fastfood restaurant here. after that we went to the next destination...

Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Hall. if D.C. has Lincoln Memorial then here in taiwan they have this. there are a lot of pictures and writings on the wall and i was lazy to read and look real closely. i just saw some people doing some protesting and a person that looks like cory aquino from afar and near. so had more pictures here and there and decided that we should try to ride the bullet train. here they call it the high speed rail ( HSR train ). it runs to about 300km/m. it was very fast because in 30minutes. we went from city to province. but the ride was very pleasant. standing up is a breeze. its not the ride in the LRT or our MRT. you actually dont move inside unless you yourself actually move. Make sense? i actually just type whatever comes to mind so bare with me.

after everything. it was only 4:30pm and i can't believe that we already did a lot of things. but i also cant believe that its already the second day and the only thing i have purchased were food and beverage. typical of me. thats why im fat. well getting back, of course taiwan is famous for their night markets so we had to visit one and the biggest. Tunghua Night Market. my sole hurts already just thinking about the walk we had. it was a very long street and many other sidestreets. many really nice stuff but it is very hard to get bargains when you dont understand the language they speak.

of course we would not start the shopping without fuel. we had to stop for some gas. we ate at this cool marketplace like foodcourt. it was amazing. you wouldn't want to eat everything because you never know what the food is. because shopping can also be tiring and not just therapeutic, we had to gas up again before we sleep. we ate in this place where instead of using chicken. they let us eat ducks. yes ducks. they place is full of pictures of it and the food basically is everything inside the duck. EVERYTHING!

and now i am here again. telling you this. taiwan is really great and the two days i have stayed here, even with a motel-like hotel, i still have taipei in my favorite cities in the world. not just for shopping but for the food and the weather and its cleanliness (relatively speaking). hope i can still come back soon.

so tomorrow is another day and hoping for more. until then im signing out.

taiwan one step at a time

my whole family is in taipei city. we are staying in a hotel that feels like a motel. pictures to come would show what i mean.

we departed manila at exactly 12:25 in the afternoon because there was an hour delay on the plane. we all thought we were already late because the immigration took so long and we all woke up late. so taiwan was a two-hour ride. we were all so hungry because in the plane they charge too much for crappy food and we haven't eaten anything since we woke up.

the first thing that we wanted was to eat. we have a representative of the company that sponsored our trip to join us and be our tour guide named gary, who is from taiwan and is just based in the philippines and michelle who is an employee also of the company. the company is called HCG. it is basically something to do with bath fixtures.

so we have our tour guide, gary, take us to a province called jingge and we ate some chinese food. really good. and after we ate. we all got free plates from the store that the restaurant owns.

first order of business : TAIPEI 101. this building is the tallest building in the world as of the moment. it has 101 floors and is supported by a ball that is suspended in the middle of the building which is called the damper baby. it was so cool to go up and take pictures of the lights of the city. i said that it is the tallest building as of the moment because in Dubai they are building the Burj and it will be the next tallest building. they have just announced that the building has 108floors. imagine that!!! (so next stop DUBAI)

it got pretty late and everyone got cranky especially my lola because we were all hungry again. we ended up eating in the streets right beside our motel and head up to rest. actually head up to take our bags there and go to the nearest internet cafe we found which is 24/7 open. the cafe is in the corner of our street so it is really convenient for us. the internet cafe rules. you can drink and smoke inside an aircon room. i dont think there are cafes like that in the philippines. im not drinking though. something new right? well let's see tomorrow what happens.

i have no idea where we are going and the itinerary. but i want to know thought. so i can study the map i have and enjoy.

until then... taiwan wants me to sleep now...

URGENT: Long Evaluation Kept Short for 2007

i've been saying for the month of december that the year of 2007 was not that good of a year for me. thinking back i can't seem to find something good that happened to me. when 12 o'clock came. the whole year came flashing before my eyes.

i wanted to fill this entry with photos of the past but unfortunately my laptop broke down and almost all my files are lost. except for the ones i have uploaded in my websites. the pictures would have told you otherwise. i had a good year. i may not have had a blooming love life. but life has been good for me.

at the start of the year, i have been blowing off all my time with malling, clubbing, sleeping, eating and breathing. i was so fed up that i got myself a job that won't inquire me to wake up early. and i got just the perfect job in Peoplesupport as a telephone banker for Washington Mutual Bank. reasons i wont go into. to my surprise, i had so much fun that i lasted four months but my lazyness is much more powerful than i am. i quit my job and went back to my old ways.

during my working days (but they were really nights), i would start with a nice shower at around 930pm. and would take my time to clean up so when i go to work, my bosses would smell me and they would love me. oh everyone would know what i mean about that. so moving on... i met a lot of people and i really enjoyed working with them in the short time i was with them. they weren't just co-workers but they became friends and confidantes. during work, they would help out when you need a helping hand, they would also be there for you after work. of course it wouldn't be complete without the autoin (drinking session) everyday after the shift ends. with just two bottles of vodka and some bottles of beer during brunch is the best sessions of my life. how i miss doing that.

there were a lot of reasons why i quit my job. i wasn't really sure if i made the right decision there because plans were all messed up when i was denied a visa to the states. i thought i would have the ultimate vacation but the dream was cut short by the awakening of the snob american lady that didn 't give me even just a month or two of vacation to visit friends and relatives. as if i would want to stay there forever. why would i want that? im living the life here in manila. i have my own car. my dad gives me money whenever. i have a credit card i can use anytime. our fridge is always full. i have a cozy bed to sleep in. i can party whenever. i dont have to work that hard to enjoy myself. which i can't do when i would live in the states. i was thinking of working maybe for a little while of study but to migrate and leave all this? NO!

this may be my ticket to getting away from my family and learning independence that i've been wanting for the longest time but i still have other options.

this year i was able to watch the Beyonce and Fall Out Boy perform live. unfortunately when babyface visited, i got sick for the whole week. and during that time my dad got sick as well and he was confined in the hospital for a week.

we had to travel a lot this year.

Malaysia Truly Asia

Hong Kong! Live it! Love it!

Shanghai Mission Impossible

this amazing year was actually a good year. there were moments of crying for me. actually that would be a lot but lets not go into that. this post is a happy one and lets stick to it. i may have been an asshole this.. so to those who i have hurt, whatever babies!!! hahaha

its actually refreshing to see that entering the new year, there were not much firecrakers around. especially in our house. basically, every year my dad would buy tons of firecrakers and would start lighting them up at 10pm of december 31. but this year, nobody bought any firecrackers. so what our block did was cook lots of food and had a street party all night. everyone was able to hangout outside which usually was impossible because everyone (meaning the girls) are afraid of all the bang. there were smiles on everyones face because every person on our block was able to eat lots of food and there were still a lot of extra.

during the year, i promised someone that i would be blogging a lot this year. but i wasnt able to do that. our internet connection was busted and i didnt have that much energy to write a good entry. i always wanted people to enjoy reading what i type here coz having to read a long one and being boring would be torture for my friends. (geek i cannot promise but i will try to write some more)

i usually have new year's resolution that i don't even do and forget for the next week or so. this year i would just live and see what happens.

no matter what, no regrets!

2008 here we come to rock your world!
