through the years....

She was one of my first friend in the new school that I transferred to. I'm not sure anymore how we "clicked" but it did. Although I was reassigned to another section and met a few good friends, we managed to sustain the friendship (it would've a lot of work on her part though because I tend to get lost in space...hehehehe)

We really haven't able to maintain a regular for of communication but, whenever we have the chance to get together, it was like we're high school freshmen all over again. And I realized one thing (it was kindah an enlightenment thing for me, so please humor me on this...), she was of the two persons in the entire world whom I can speak freely. I mean, freely, as in no care for any possible case of libel and slander, much more of the shame and scandal stuff! hehehehehehe

It was really a good way to end the year (for me) by re-connecting with an old friend who will always be one of my best friend.

My Mission Impossible

For a couple of months, I have searching for my new mobile phone. I'm not choosy, really, all I want is a phone with BIG screen and BIG storage space for MP3s and videos. My choice now boils down to Nokia E63 and LG KP500 cookie. Oh boy! This is really hard!!!!!

Give Love on Christmas Day

When I was younger, I was so into the entire process of gift-giving, choosing, buying, and wrapping.... Now, I just couldn't fathom the whole concept of actually asking for gifts... Duh?!? Is that what Christmas has become? People expecting to receive "gifts" and will audacious react negatively when they don't like what they got? Is this really how we celebrate Christmas?

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Less than a month from now, a new year will begin....

Looking back at the last eleven months of 2008, i learned a very important lesson on how to deal with people. Never assume that you know what others think.... No two people think like, even twins, so it's humanly impossible to say that you know what others are thinking or feeling... It took me quite a while for really understand the concept because i used to pride myself as somewhat a considerate person and all... but, i was floored!!!!! it took a really big blow to my pride to be actually aware that i don't really know what i was talking or proud about. although, i still tend to believe that i can effectively sympathize, i am really learning to instill within myself that i am, in reality, fooling myself in that belief. i don't know how others think or feel because i'm not them and likewise, i should NEVER expect others to know how or what i feel because they're not me. hopefully, by next year, i can say that i've become a better person.

Twilight

When a friend first mentioned to me about this book, called, twilight, i was like, DUH?!? Then she told me that it was about a romance between a human girl and a vampire... i went, "Mercy! I haven't gotten over how Joss Whedon tore Buffy and Angel apart!" No more impossible romance plots for me, please.

About couple of months ago, I began getting all those news regarding twilight books and movies, how it was one of the highly-anticipated book-to-movie event, yada-yada, so i told myself, read it and be done with it. Against my better judgement, i borrowed the twilight books... and, well...i must say, it's addicting.

I'm not sure how twilighters would react, but I honestly believe the the 4 volumes could be condensed in 2-book series. Give me a break, how many heartless bloodsuckers are out there planning to kill bella anyway? One book solely devoted to bella's reckless attempts to "hear" edward's voice and edward's pointless attempts to sacrifice his one true love for the greater good. Another book talked nothing about one of those heartless bloodsucker out to avenge her lover's demise. Call me heartless, but, I would be happier with just two books.

Going back to my addiction, well, I must say that I'm quite satisfied with the movie version. Although I was initially not to be jumping for joy with robert pattinson as edward cullen (maybe because he will always be cedric diggory to me!), he had proven to be edward cullen. With a little subtle changes here and there (for cinematic purposes, i think), the movie remains true to the book and for that I am grateful to the production people.

Although I'm not THAT crazy over the book 2 and book 3, I will still be looking forward to seeing bella and edward onscreen. Yes, this is an addiction! hehehehehe

It's O-V-E-R!!!!

Whew!!!!! I have never felt this much relief over something akin to confusion, well, actually of my doing. I wasn't really that serious over a possible change in my life. I was more of testing the waters but, of course, I just had to be caught up in a tangle of misunderstanding. Good thing though that even if the final resolution wasn't ideal to the other end, for my end, there was nothing but relief.

Am I speaking in riddles? Let me put it simply, I made an impulsive act without really thinking and put me in a spot where I almost lost not only my present employment (although I had an offer, quite good actually) but a very good friend as well. Luckily, all's well that's hopefully really do ended well!

Awkward Much?!?

In as much as I try to go along with everybody at work, there will still be a couple of those rub me in the wrong way. I really try to be fair in dealing with them even though most of the time I struggle between strangling them or simply slapping them silly. So I guess, it's (more than, actually) awkward to be put together in a confined space, let's say a car. Although I am pretty sure I can be civil but question like what the hell will we talk about aside from the weather bugs me from the word go.

Should I or Should I Not?

I am in a dilemma of my own making!!!!!! Should I get myself a new mobile phone or should I get myself a new ipod nano-chromatic? Choices! Choices!!! If only, I can get both!!!!!
