I feel oddly older. I do not have the need to blog anymore so why am I here. I see the use of it now though. Looking at the entries makes the passage of time more evident. See how I changed (for the better, I don't know;) and how I also stayed much the same.

I may visit again I'm not sure. It's been what 3 years, maybe another 3 won't hurt or maybe I'll be here again in 3 days. Whatever.

Hang tagal ko nang di nagpost...nakakatakot. What have i been doing all this time? HEhehehehehe. wala ganun pa rin. Marami nang nangyari pero I suddenly felt that I have no need to post. So baket ako nagpopost ng wala lang ngayon. Kasi naguubos lang ako nga oras dito sa computer shop. Pagala gala. Lagi na lang akong pagala gala. Di naman ako pusa. Washahahahahaahashahahahahahahah. I just went through a bad patch again. haay hope its past na.

I have been looking for an online copy of a josei manga titled Kimi wa Petto but to no avail, just check the link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kimi_wa_Petto for more info. I knew there was a live action version made years before but I wanted to read the manga first so not to ruin my fragile first impression.(naks!) It was supposed to be really good it won awards and critical acclaim and such so gaddarnit...I couldnt help myself when I saw a site that streamed the first 2 episodes of the live action so I went ahead and plunged in. I was shocked who the leads were: Koyuki, remember the girl for Last Samurai(?) AND who played the young boy who was the pet you say...its Jun Matsumoto!! *jaw on da floor* I know WTF?! Him again! Talk about plum roles. Well any way super nabitin ako waaaaaah!!! Love ko na si Koyuki ang galing galing nya dun. Aba mahirap kayang iwasang maging korny ang karakter na yon sa live action. empatays ako sa karakter nyang si Sumire. Potah napuyat na tuloy ako! I need help from my super friends kung sino man may kopya nito mamahalin ko kayo seryoso na to. I mean ako pa eh di ako mahilig sa Jdrama, di ba himala? hehehehe! Baka kasi napanod nyo na to tapos ako lang pala ang ngengot na di pa nakakapanod nakakahiya.  ^____________^  I'll be on the lookout for this I swear I'll keep you posted. Patayan na to.

Got this from Ryan from the official office spam maybe you've read it before. The title reads: The difference between FAKE ASS friends and REAL friends. Personally rearranged for greater effect, my comments are in red.

FAKE ASS FRIENDS: Will take your drink away when they think you've had enough.
REAL FRIENDS: Will look at you stumbling all over the place and say:
"Bitch drink the rest of that you know we don't waste."    CHECK

FAKE ASS FRIENDS: bail you out of jail and tell you what you did was wrong.
REAL FRIENDS: Would sit next to you sayin "Damn ... we fucked up ... but that shit was fun!"   CHECK

FAKE ASS FRIENDS: Will leave you behind if that is what the crowd is doing.
REAL FRIENDS: Will kick the whole crowds ass that left you.     CHECK

FAKE ASS FRIENDS: will talk shit to the person who talks shit about you.
REAL FRIENDS: Will knock them the fuck out         CHECK

FAKE ASS FRIENDS: Never ask for food.
REAL FRIENDS: are the reason you have no food.   CHECK

FAKE ASS FRIENDS: Call your parents Mr/Mrs
REAL FRIENDS: Call your parents DAD/MOM         Thats just weird. I have no intention to be chummy with your 'rents. (still true)

FAKE ASS FRIENDS: Would knock on your front door.
REAL FRIENDS: Walk right in and say "I'M HOME!"    I have to get permission or I can't enter. It's your space,I respect that. But once I'm invited inside thats a whole different story.

FAKE ASS FRIENDS: never seen you cry.
REAL FRIENDS: cry with you       Wanna, cry fine. Me I don't do that anymore.  

FAKE ASS FRIENDS: Borrow your stuff for a few days then give it back.
REAL FRIENDS: keep your shit so long they forget its yours          Again, this is weird. This idea is foreign to me.    (CHECK seems I have friends who do this now, I guess that's a good thing no?)

FAKE ASS FRIENDS: know a few things about you.
REAL FRIENDS: Could write a book about you 
with direct quotes from you.                     No one knows dick about me and I like it that way thank you.    (failing miserably with this so i guess CHECK?)

FAKE ASS FRIENDS: Are for awhile.
REAL FRIENDS: Are for life.                  I'm too old, jaded and cynical for this, there's no such thing as for life. Except for idiots. Being an idiot is forever. 


Its now 7 out of 11. Err...I' m changing. err...

But personally, I'd rather take someone who doesnt know my parents but gets thrown in jail with me than someone who knows shit load of trivia bout me any day of the week. 

Usually I'm suffering from chronic boredom, dragging my feet around the office like, I think the word we're looking for is "zombie"like. Suddenly I realized the catchy opening theme for Ouran high school was Chieki's Sakura Kiss, concluded I should watch all the episodes, cute. Then I finally saw a complete episodes of Suzumiya Haruhi for further viewing, more cuteness. Then I saw the 1st episode of Pita ten!! Gorramit TOO MUCH CUTENESS!!!

I think I've exceeded the dosage for cute animes for a day.This is bad. I dont wanna die of OD.

Hello Mai,

Yes you. I am speaking to you. The whole reason of being of this entry journal is YOU. It seems you expressed interest in the manga called MPD Psycho. I'm sorry I do not have a hard copy of this bizarre little manga and I really believe if you wanted to look for one on the net YOU will be able to find something better than what I found. YOU being more tenacious in finding stuff on the internet and such. With this heres a link to at least the first few volumes.

Hope you enjoy it.

Sincerely
Mads

Before anything else thanks mai for that absolutely adorable site filled with monkeys http://www.totebo.com/monkey-kick-off.php of course my personal spacemonkey best is currently at 4361 meters right smack in the middle of the village! ^_____^ Looking for a pattern for the farthest kick I found out the monkey is likely to be right handed (or foot in this case) and you have to wait till the ball is last kicked by his left foot well beyond his head and you have to click on the upper rightmost corner of the screen to get the best trajectory....well this spacemonkey is starting to get nerdy again. But once you get to the village there seems to be nothing left to do so I found the "Monkey Lander to be much challenging and more reminiscent of the real spacemonkeys. Its a monkey trying to drive and land a spaceship people, how more spacemonkey can it get?!!  

But what really kicks off this spacemonkey into orbit this first day of the work week is that  I got to listen to Audioslave's newest album Revelations and of course D'sound's My Today  at Tower Records and they both sounded incredible! I'm both ecstatic and so torn right now because for some kind of freak event of nature two of my most favorite bands of recent times released their new albums on my birthday month of September! The only band missing is Garbage, which is now on official hiatus anyway, and that would be my holy trinity of bands whose all the songs in their cds are always guaranteed to be great. I'm a poor, poor spacemonkey and I can't afford buying stupid cd's of artists with only one or two tracks worth listening to. I just hate that, that's why I always make it a point listen to them first. Looking at those unlikely threesome of bands your gonna get the feel how much of a mixed bag of nucking futs I am.  

By the way some uber-stupid-bubblehead-marketing people forgot to go "HER' YE! HER' YE everyone and all!" to announce D'sound, (yes THAT band!) was making D'rounds, sorry I couldnt resist d'pun, around Manila last Sept.22 promoting their album MY TODAY. My gawd man! How many times would they haul their asses to my little island in the pacific in this lifetime(?) and I totally MISSED IT! If you happen know this person responsible, strangle HIM... or HER be politically correct, for me please. You will do the world a favor. I have a vein the diameter of a mongol pencil in my temple pulsing everytime I remember this travesty. (I know, hampanget!) Not even one of my fanboy and fangirl friends knew about it so no one could tell me. Or maybe they knew but they wanted me to bang my head on a wall for a couple of months. (Khaaaaaaan!!!)

Going back to my story, the fact that I'm torn between both albums and that I'm a poor wretch-- you see I already forked out moola for an Eraserheads Anthology CDs and an Ultraelectromagneticpop! for my sister in Canada. She's having a feeling of sentimental throwback to her college years (go figure) and she's making me send those along with her Sarah McLachlan cds.  (Oh please NOT the McLachlan cds! NOoooo!) 

So you could just imagine I was in a conundrum, what would poor (literally) me do.Then I suddenly I saw a green album cover-- the very best of SONIA was also already out this month so I bought that instead. HAHAHAHAHAHA! So bossa nova wins this round, Paula Terry's  version of Manic Monday and She's Not There just cannot be passed up. I just have to content myself with this one while i'm left pining for audioslave and d'sound.

This is absolutely crazy, I've been tracking down this old incredibly dark manga I read before. All I could remember was its about this brilliant detective that specialized in profiling serial killers. Oh yeah, did I mention that he's schizophrenic and also convicted of the same type of crime. Catchy no? Yesh Clarice...

Its a relatively old manga but still the artwork just kicked me butt. Well anyway did a little more digging found out that MPD Psycho was already adapted as a live action six-episode TV miniseries by director Takashi Miike and here's comes the kicker. With bated breath I scanned the list of cast members: Chiaki of the Go go Yubari fame is also there!! What the hell's with this kid!? Everywhere we go she pops out of nowhere. Let me see...she was in Azumi, Battle Royale then that last movie Dek pimped. Burger with geesh! If anything I commend her for how she chooses her projects, those are really cool movies to be in. Well any I'm getting ahead of myself, I have to track this old miniseries first if I can, plus a few other dark pieces/manga such as Boys Next Door(about a guy who "killed" male prostitutes), another aptly named Monster and Tsutomu Nihei's BLAME! that caught my attention while messing around at work.*evil grin* I'm thinking this may as well be impossible but you may never know by some miracle I may get my hands on them and know finally know what all the commotion is about.

In a much lighter note this fangirl is so happy I got to finish House yesterday afternoon! Yay me! I know I'm pathetic but they ended the season so strong I literally couldnt sleep! One of the best teevee couch potato experience I ever had in recent years. Neo from the Matrix is a p*s*y! He needed people to help him figure out things but Greggy boy rocks! I dont want to blurt out spoilers so I'll shut up now.

An online comment made by a friend of mine today made me remember a key moment in my life. For other people certain smells or sounds would trigger memories wherein they would remember almost every detail or what they exactly felt in that moment. I also experience those but curiously some of mine would be words--either spoken before or from a book I read long ago. I would always remember how I reacted---how my thoughts hobbled or lurched like a blasted junk of a jeepney or finally after all of the above, suddenly race to a realization. 

You see I'm not a magical person, never saw, felt or heard anything extraordinary or supernatural in my whole life. I'm sooo ordinary I like to joke I don't even have one single "mutant ability," not enough even just for a "sit in" in a class for Charles Xavier's School unlike some people I know.LOL! But its in those key moments of realization I experience something I'd say is almost magical. I may be just sitting there quietly but no one knows how my everything would swirl and ebb and flow violently from one viewpoint to another. ALL I ever held dear and true in life are confronted mercilessly and I would have to fight with everything I got lest nothing would left. All found non essential and illogical will be discarded, nothing will be spared. No one else will save me, there's just me all alone. 

After the onslaught, I would be left bloody, confused and exhausted but when I raise my head from such unassuming little book everything is never the same. I am changed forever and I can only remember what I was before but never go back. Its as if I see through new eyes, everything looks different...unfamiliar...foreign...and after the prerequisite moment of panic the most wonderfully magical feeling. All is suddenly new (!) and must be REexamined under this new strange light! There's something to live for, to look forward to for another day. Old views that survived gives hope and a slight confidence in my step. It's almost a transformation, almost magical...

First off, it's the first day of my work week and I had a particularly fun weekend so I had the feeling that this is going to be one really long day for me. The only thing that saved me today is this link to a really fun site sent to me by Janina. (God bless your good heart young lady! hahaha!) If you had done this before, damn you why didnt you tell me about it, kidding, I mean good for you.

http://thewicked.sgblogging.com/wicked2/

Its like the other site I posted before but this is way more of a head scratcher, totally recommended to all you nerd boys and girls out there. ^_________^

Well anyway like I said I had an eventful weekend, it started out slow but me and my friends somehow saved it from being a total waste of perfectly good downtime. Started ordinarily enough, me catching up with the girls to watch the last show for Eiga Sai at Shang that day and later having dinner at the strip. A round of vodkas after dinner we thought the band's sets were lame churning out usual rnb and hip hop radio fodder, 'till they played something from The Go-go's! We we're just talking about it--if they had no other decent song to play they might as well play some solid 80's muzak so when they hit the first few notes we just looked at each other, went insane and screamed our pretty little senshi heads off. Harharhar. 

It turned out to be one crazy night, I accidently broke into a closed restaurant good thing no one was on the first floor or it would have been very embarassing. It WAS an accident I promise! Teehee! Then while waiting for a cab to Dek's place (thanks again, rockin' impromtu house party as usual) we saw a package fall out of a jeepney on the intersection of EDSA and Shaw blvd and the jeep stopped a few meters away on Shaw. I mean HONESTLY I thought a plastic bag full of books just fell out! Of course what else can a self respecting nerd do but to run and save it from the impending doom and indignity of being run over by renegade busses. I mean what had you have done? What would Jesus do? Hehehehe! Books are friends. I'm a nerd people of course I could not just watch idly by! I was on it so fast my friends were rooted on the spot. They thought I was friggin out of my mind...I mean I did what a self respecting geek must do. Anyway there were no oncoming traffic on either street. I mean come on! Of course the kicker of the story is that it wasnt books at all but a effin' jeepney seat. Bwahahahahahahahahah! Me and my Batman syndrome. 

I disagree with TED on this one: good things do happen after 2 am. Seriously. 

You guys may have answered this before but for those who haven't its a really fun game. The object is you have to get from page one to page 23 without any links just by tinkering with the url. Enjoy!

Got this from Adrian. if even just half of this is true I'd already be one happy camper.

You Are a Centaur

In general, you are a very cautious and reserved person. However, you are also warm hearted, and you enjoy helping others in practical ways. You are a great teacher, and you are really good at helping people get their lives in order. You are very intuitive, and you go with your gut. You make good decisions easily.

I hate you Kierkegaard!



I hated you before, I still hate your individualist ass now!!! Screw you!!!

I took this quiz at eSPIN-the-Bottle: What's Wrong With You? and here's what I got: Frightening to Small Children Take this quiz yourself.

You’re a nice, funny, intelligent person who just happens to be terrifying to anyone under the age of six.

Don’t take this news too hard. Just keep your chin held high and try to stay out of elementary schools. And maybe you should work on your people skills a little. You know, try to curb those evil stares and haunting peals of laughter. Because there’s nothing worse than having a beautiful day ruined by the blood-curdling screams of children.

So...is this a bad thing?

Today the QA team held an another auction of sorts, one's QA points are converted into funny money which you can use to buy items. It was funny because they auctioned off weird stuff like cigarettes before but this one takes the cake---pirated DVD's! (wahahahahhahahaha!) Get this, only three titles were up for grabs and the first item for bid was Grey's Anatomy season 1-2!! I thought I was in for a fight but lo and behold no one was bidding! *blink, blink.* hwa? I made my bid. No reaction. *more blinking* no friggin way?

The long and short of it, I'll be happily skipping home with the gorram thing in my grubby hands hehehehehehehehe! This is quite a steal folks for only "40 dollars" of funny money. Can you say shiny? Very much so.
