I'll just laugh this one out -- For now...

Now Playing: New Perspective - Panic! At the Disco

When irony spells itself right in front of you?  What do you do?

I just got back from doing field work and of course the day wouldn't be complete without some news.  Well...  Not really news but information.  Which of course will be defined or identified in a matter of...  Who knows?  Months?  Weeks?  Or even just days.

When I was still a kid -- How I got into music

Now Playing: This Too Shall Pass - OK Go!

The first ever guitar that I picked up to learn and play music was an Ibanez Roadstar II.  A 1980's model that my dad kept on playing in their gigs.  You could say it was what inspired me to follow my dad's footsteps.  And because of that, we had some father-and-son arguments about my and his guitar playing style.

As I grew up I developed a liking towards the lower registers and picked up a bass.  We never had arguments about music ever since.  Well...  Let's just say we don't argue that much anymore.  LOL!

Just been a long month

Now Playing: (Nothing)

So I've been away...  I have a lot of tell tales to share but I don't think I'm in my right mind to discuss it.  (And since when have I even been on my right mind?)

And as I try to think of what I'm supposed to post here...  Those thoughts are still running around my brain.  Seriously...  I could use that whole "Nothing Box" concept but its just not working today.  I must have stacked it somewhere behind one of those other boxes...  I'm just not sure which one.  =..=

Although I have been posting updates on my twitter and plurk (and tumblr occasionally).  What runs in my mind don't even amount to any of those nonsense.  (But you may count that I'm still thinking and spewing nonsense at this rate.)

Oh and yeah, if you count the dots in this entry...  Including the dots in the "i"s, "j"s, punctuations (and ellipses)... (Are those what you actually call it?) You'll find 93 dots.  (Not to mention it has 1165 characters including the title, spaces and the "Now Playing" watchamacallit...)

So if you're up to it, go count it and make me happy for letting me mess with your brain.  =]

What is the right question?

Now Playing: XYZ - HIGH and MIGHTY COLOR

The week has been heavy. And so have the previous weeks. Its only now that I realized I haven't freaking blogged. So now I write this entry. =..=

I've been posting the same question on Plurk since Wednesday. I meant it to be rhetorical but people thought of it as a karma booting plot. LOL! Unfortunately, it didn't serve that purpose. So I guess this entry should at least be able to explain why I've been asking such a nonsensical question. As it was sparked by a lot of events and so have people's reaction to those events followed.

Its only normal that people react after catching news or hearing something they're not prepared to hear. Well how the heck can you call it news if you expected it? =..=

Dealing with -- A short rant

Now Playing: BLUE TRAIN - ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION

Okay, I guess all that's left for me to do is to post a rant because I don't have any other entry for July. And to think I was able to make 5 entries for June... Gawd. =..=

Anyway, as the title suggests. "Dealing with". And I currently am just dealing with...

With what? Here's a list.

7.17.2009

It always rains at this day of the year -- And today it rained weird

Now Playing: Sunshower - Chris Cornell

Seldom have I seen an 18th of July that's actually dry... ¬_¬

Was what I've put as today's status message on my messengers. Its funny 'coz it rhymes a little. It just came to mind as I was hauling a couple of tupperwares of macaroni salad and a tray of barbecue to work from Batangas. For what reason? Let's just say the date has something to do with the food. =..=

My recent near death experience -- Yeah I almost died biches!!!

Now Playing: Don't say "lazy" - Sakurakou K-ON Bu

This should have been posted last Friday if only I didn't fall asleep on my station in the office... Late night reports... Enough of that! =..=

As the title suggests, I'm supposed to rant about almost dying the other day. Specifically last Friday. So let me start...

Like any other day, I usually take the MRT to and from work. And riding the train on a daily basis can sometimes be both enjoyable or disgusting depending on the circumstances.

So this last one I'd just had to share because it was full of FAIL in EPIC proportions.

Interruption -- Another messed up chat log

Now Playing: Pastime Paradise (Live) - Stevie Wonder

I was supposed to post an account of last weekend's events but suddenly... Another messed up IM. ''O|¯|_

I unsuspectingly added this user to my Y!M list thinking it was a guildmate. Since there was a thread in our forums where we can leave our messengers so we can all add each other up for timely conference chats or what nots. And there were several others already who've added me already because of that thread.

Anyway, so I did add this one up. And to my surprise, it wasn't someone I know. =..=

Injustice -- Three things that make a good find not worth it

Now Playing: Spill the Dope - MASAKI

This is going to be an untimely rant post but who cares right?

Entertainment. Its what keeps us entertained. I'm a genius I know. Sue me. =..=

Anyway, I get my fill through the interweb more than any local media available.

Besides the fact that I spend around 15 hours a day in front of a PC connected to high speed internet because of my nature of work, entertainment for people like me is just a few clicks or keyboard strokes away. (That's another way of spelling YouTube by the way)

There are also those rare occasions when I get to sit down in front of the old tube at home and just watch whatever is available on screen. And sure enough, one time or another, both medium will reach a median. (Okay that was kind of redundant =..=)

The Bet -- Because hating the rest of the year starts with a haircut

Now Playing: Burnout - Sugarfree

WTF are we doing here again?

So here's where I tell the tale of how I lost my hair and state how much I will hate the rest of the year... Not that it makes me feel any different. The fact is I'd still probably hate the rest of the year regardless if I did get a haircut or not. So picking up from when I left of here. Allow me to post images and provide details of why I took on this so called "bet".

So let's start with some basic details to why this "bet" came to start in the first place. Like what made me grow my hair longer than usual?

The Bet -- Prelude to hating the rest of the year

Now Playing: Disappear - Dream Theater

I really don't like making bets. Why?

1. I don't win that often on bets,

2. The stakes are either not worth it or too good to be true, and

3. I'm never good with bets to begin with. ''O|¯|_

Well what this is, is basically about a bet that was raised by people whom I work with and who are annoyed at my hair. =..= And to my better judgment, I submitted to their whim and dared the bet.

A week-load of funny shit -- Post Mother's Day entry

Now Playing: Merry・Go・Round - YUI

I've been suffering from a cold since Saturday last week. Thanks to an unplanned outing by the in-laws to a hot spring somewhere in Pansol, Laguna.

Although the kids enjoyed wading in the kiddie pools, me and their mom took more pleasure just watching them almost drown. They, unfortunately caught a cold after that outing. And because of the worldwide Swine Flu scare, I kind of find it funny that people get awkward when I jokingly say that I may be suffering from it. LOL!

Also, I lost my voice because too much coughing and not knowing why the heck my throat was dry the entire weekend. Although, the thing might have been caused by fatigue from the outing last Saturday and the band rehearsal the following day. ''O|¯|_

The few times I rant -- Who gives a shit?

Now Playing: Calm Like a Bomb - Rage Against The Machine

During the many occasions where everything is fun. There are some times when one will just tend to succumb to rage and eventually, let the hate loose.

And I quote myself...

You only get offended because you want to be offended with what I say...

... I don't get why my tone of speaking offends people. Its not like I'm fucking insulting anyone or talking down on people.

... I try to say things to lighten up the mood and because I don't want to sound pessimistic when asked questions.

Just some of the lines I carelessly blurted out. And yes, I may have yet again offended people with my untimely rage fits such as these.

The funny thing about these times when I shift to enraged-aggro-mob mode, some people actually find it hilarious. ''O|¯|_

Not taking offense -- Is masochism?

Now Playing: Roll with it - Oasis

To each his own... And for some reason, you just can't argue with that. And there's actually a reason why I'm starting this entry with that.

Lately, work has become fun and interesting, again. Regardless of peer pressure or just getting cramped up with work, people are still having fun. There are times when someone just cracks up a joke or shares a funny thing that happened along the way or while doing something. But the best part about working on shifts are the frequent and seemingly aggressive spats. Everyone gets a kick out of it believe me. XD

Not that its a bad thing. But whenever someone responds to a discussion, it automatically becomes tagged as "aggro" and the spat-fest starts. And its not just between two or three people. Everyone pitches in. When someone's being picked on, the others throw in their own a blunt remark or follow up. And we all end up laughing our asses off.
