cause and effect

Yesterday, Manila's temp hit a whooping 36.8C at 3pm. Thank God I was under the roof of St. Anthony's church in Legarda praying the rosary while sweating rivers. I'm now watching TV and this Nestle ice cream of Sharon Cuneta comes on. Seriously... who could resist such cool comfort food!???

ME!!

Why??? Because after the commercial appeared, my superego ruled over my id by telling me that if I do go running after that one scoop of Nestle ice cream, I'd be as big as its endorser!! Nooooooo wayy!


So tell me, isn't it worth resisting???

Where'd my cup of coffee go? Haha ;p

only the truth

I did some thinking after dinner today and made some resolutions. I know it's mid-year but this is something I wanna do for the rest of my life. See, being raised away from the Philippines, my parents always told me never to tell the truth about my life to anyone unless I can assure and re-assure myself that this person can be trusted. Very few people know the history of my life and what I've been through. I guess you can call them priveleged, but I'm scared one day they'll turn against me and ruin my paradise life. Ha ha!

Well, yes... I do solemnly promise that when my new crush contacts me and asks me to hang out, I'll rev up all my courage and spill the beans. It's a risky thing but I don't wanna let this opportunity pass since this guy seems to be a good future friend/partner etc..

Let's see where this goes. I hope and pray he contacts me before it's time for me to fly out. C'monnnn let's hang out my dear crush!! :) I can't wait already Ha ha ha ha :P

bills!

Many people are amazed when they hear that I live alone in my house. I usually get shocked when I get that reaction coz I feel that at 23, it is kinda expected for any woman or man to do so. It's good in a way because you can do what you want when you want. Nobody is going to drag you out of bed at 5 in the morning or ask you to cook for them. All you get is peace and quiet--oh plus hunger too. Ha ha! The setback here is that if anything happens or if anything is questioned, the only answerable person is ME. Yes ME!!

Like today mail came in and they were all bills. Seriously! I don't wanna break down how much I need to pay but it's making me quite guilty coz the electric bill is through the roof and the cable bill just made me laugh. I don't see the point of paying P500/month for a service I only use 4 hours a day. I read the bill then sit down in front of the TV flipping channels thinking... Why am I paying for something I don't even use much? I don't even know the TV scheds..! All I watch is Wowowee, Tyra, Ellen, and House among others.

What a rip off. But I've still paid it off thinking that I'd rather say good bye to a crisp yellow piece of paper with Ninoy's face on it than to kill my eyes trying to watch super blurred Channel 2. Hahaha =)

ang taray mo day!

Last week, a day after I arrived from Saudi, I attended this Basic Critical Care Nursing Course in CCNAPI. There were these two coordinators sitting at the back; they were in charge of checking attendance and doing a lot of other stuff. For the longest time, my friend and I thought that they were secretaries or runners but we were shocked when we found out that they were registered nurses!!!

Anyway, I'm not here to make them sound good after what they have done to me. Okay I admit that I was late for class almost every single day--but please don't blame the girl who has extreme jetlag and living 6 jeepney rides away from the training center!!! Plus, this doesn't give you any reason to bitch-slap me today... Yes, she's such a meanie!

So here's the scenario, I go up to her and ask if she can help me become a member of CCNAPI. Being the nice, adorable and polite person I am, I never expected her reaction!! She was so mean and telling me that I never paid attention in class or even listened to her announcement--which according to her was repeated over and over! I just asked this question, and imagine it being said by a Filipino woman in Tagalog.. yes her answer was like 3 minutes long!

I don't even know why I even thought of being a CCNAPI member.. was I drunk when I made that decision?? Geez, I'd rather not represent a group of bullies. How can one be a nurse with this attitude? Thank God she's most probably unemployed, or else her patients might have never come out of the coma scared of waking up to a witch bitch.

Peace out y'all... Just using my freedom of speech here :P

waiting waiting waiting...

Here I am waiting for the time when my new crush would send me a text when he'd be available to meet so that we could exchange talents, like he would teach me how to read EKG strips and I would teach him English. The big problem--which is the biggest here in the Philippines--is that he doesn't want to send messages or call other people outside his network. He uses the SUN network and I use GLOBE... so yeah good luck to our future. I am not even sure if there is a future.

Will update once something comes up... How I wish there was one promo where you could text anyone anytime from any network! It's frustrating when you're just waiting for a text..
