Beached in Laiya, Batangas (Feb 25-26)
Great isn't exactly the word for this trip. I think it's an overstatment, if there is such word as overstatement. I guess the word is aight. I've seen better beaches, but a mediocre beach is better than no beach at all right?! Anyways, i didn't actually swim that much in the beach since the beach was composed of mostly rocks, there was sand but just until before the shore and there were a lot of jellyfishes as big as showplates. When i say a lot i mean a lot, there were hundreds of them. Snorkling though was the shit. There were some spots there that would pass for discovery channel, Lovely really. Anyways, I was with Chase, Wowie and the whole Marriage Encounter crew the whole time. It was one of them wholesome beach trips, with a bit of Hennesey X.O.on the side. Also, Aunt Evelyn since she was there, she fed us like there was no tomorrow with her Halo Halo and some other stuff. After the whole weekend i felt like i wasn't going to be able to eat for a week! sheeez!
In conclution, everything was aight! it wasd a chillout weekend. A press on the panic button for a quick break from reality... hehee nice!!

Yesterday was our 4th function this term. It's was a bit messy compared to the previous two functions but i think we did pretty well. I don't think Chef Jose Miguel would agree with me since he thought it was a disaster, but either way, i think it was aight. It was two function cusines in one, Korean and Japanese. Both cuisines i think has a lot of similarities when it comes to meat and poultry but nothing can beat Japanese when it comes to the freshness of their fish. And also, they have this meticulous way of preparing and presenting their dishes that never ceases to amaze me. Korean on the other hand, has this obsession for Sesame seeds. I got nothing against it really, i guess that's the trade mark of their food. I'l try and post some photos in a couple of days, just check it out.

The Old Trafford spotlight was stolen from the young phenom Wayne Rooney of Manchester United as Hernan Crespo of AC Milan scores the only goal on the first leg of their match in the UEFA Champion's League Quarter Finals. Hernan Crespo gets a rebound from a bounce off Clarence Seedorf's shot to Carrol to concieve his third Champion's League goal this season. The Second Leg will be played in San Siro, Milan this 8th of march where i think a miracle can only save Manchester's Season.

In a Couple of hours i'm off to the beach in Laiya, Batangas. I need this break i just know it. I'll post again on Saturday! Au Revoir!

This week the professors and the chefs started handing out our midterm grades, and to my surprise i did pretty well, eventhough i've been slacking off this first leg of the term. Anyways, i hope i don't screw up this second leg, i mean, i really have to graduate already. Correction, not because i have to, but because i want to already, it's imperative for me to graduate before the next school year starts.

On sports, Real Madrid barely draws with Juventus in the first leg of the Champion's League quarter finals which was held this morning in Estadio de Santiago Bernabeu in Espana. Madrid's hero is defender Ivan Helguerra (6) where he scored the only goal in the game throgh a free kick from David Beckham (23) on the 31st minute. What probably held Juventus back was the absence of the French striker David Trezeguet and Pavel Nedved's injury. They actually did pretty well on holding back the Whites considering their teams state. Nice one! Next game is on March 9, which will be played in Del Alpi. Good Luck to both teams..
Other Scores
Bayern Munich 3-1 Arsenal
Liverpool 3-1 Bayern Leverkusen
PSV 1-0 AS Monaco
Real Madrid 1-0 Juventus F.C.

First up, congratulations to the people who marched today. For those people who hated school so much, finally it's over for you guys. Anyways, this morning i served in the graduation banquet as the bartender, and i just have to say, i don't want to be a bartender anymore. I'd rather be a chef or something, well, that's what i'm planning to do anyways.
And so today, i realize how much i want to graduate already. Seeing these people so happy and fulfilled while holding a rolled up piece of paper in their hand, it just envys me so much. "hay dios mio!"..
Anyways, Tomorrow i'll be playing in the new Ayala Green Fields.. i'll post again later... PEACE!!

There's this certain sentiment that i normally get which i can't elucidate, everytime i tend to lose something or probably someone out of lazyness or just plain bad luck. I don't think it's aggrevation nor dissapointment, i think it's somewhat in between those two. It probably is aggrevation or disapointment, if the case is just plain bad luck. But if the reason is, because i'm just too lazy to do anything or do something, i'd rather not think of it as either one of them, maybe it's the thing in between. Evidently, i have that "in between" feeling right now. To clear this shit out, it's not because it's Valentines that i'm feeling this way, it's just that i feel like i lost someone, because i didn't do anything. And i knew i was in the position where in i could have done something, anything or everything. Now it's just too late. If only regret could come first before you actually do something, maybe everybody would be happy..maybe i would be happier. It's one a.m. my class is at 9.. "Au Revoir"

There is actually nothing to blog about.. Besides having my head ashed because it's ash wednesday at the same time fast from lunch and abstain from beef, pork and poultry products because it's just the way it is.. its Filipino's way of starting the lenten season. At times i find it thick i mean, what if you were in this situation were you wern't able eat dinner the night before and when morning came, you also wern't able to eat as much since you're already late for school? and by lunch time, you were able obtain this scrumptious, mouth-watering burger from Mcdonalds while noticing the people around you staring, and wondering why you have a burger in your hands and you staring back and wondering why they staring and why do they have marks of ashes on their forheads, to only find out that it's ash wednesday and you're not supposed to eat some meat today (Greatfully, this didn't happen to me today *Wink* *Wink*). Anyway, you think it would be a transgression if you took a huge ass bite from that burger, considering your situation?

Ok, awhile ago back in school, i was supposed to keep my spending as minimal as possible. Well i guess it's easier said than done. How? ok, this blockmate of mine from my Barmlec class came up to me and started to sell tickets for her function at 6:00 pm this day. First i was sayin "no" since my class is just until 12:30 p.m. only and i won't be able to go there. But then SHE eventually used her begging technique. Little did i know that her technique was clearly functional to me. First it was her "pretty brown eyes" and then some "baby talk" and some then "arm grabbing" and Me, eventually reaching for my wallet in my pocket. And so i bought, now that i'm sitting here writing about this, i realize that i'm such an idiot. I am not part of a freakin demographic, sheeeit! But in fairness, she was a chick! yeah, a chick that downed me 200 bucks! "Hay ¡DIOS MIO! ¡la vida es hoy tal perra!" I'll blog again later.. PEACE!! Good night People!

I left for Taft Avenue last thursday with the sun still yawning along with me and everyone else in the car. Every Tuesdays and Thursdays, my school schedule is from 8 a.m. till 8 p.m. I get extended till 9 because i have to wait for Vic, Primo and my Brother. The highway from alabang to Nichols greeted us wait a very Good Morning, but right from Nichols to Buendia, it was as if he has a hangover from last night! The traffic was terrible but thankfully we reached school just in time for our first class. When i entered the class room, everyone was still lethargic from lack of sleep, even the chef was still a bit sluggish. The first class went well besides the fact that everyone had their own Morpheus influenced trips. First Class, So far so good! After this catering lecture, i went down eight floors since my next class was not until fourty minutes after nine, to meet up with some folks who had the same time of class as i have, and to have a smoke and a cup of coffee from Ate Donna's Eatery, since Ate Lily's Diner was still closed. While enjoying a cup of Ate Donna's famous 3 in one coffee and a Marlboro Menthol Lights stick of cigarette, i was informed that last tuesday, 5 minutes after i left to go home, there was a stabbing at the exact spot where i was waiting. Talk about being providential. And so after everything, i headed for my next class where we delt with numbers and X's from nine forty till eleven and where after that i had a two hour break in Ate Donna's Eatery and this i was with chase. From eleven to one, i did nothing but take pictures of everyone, even this cutie beside me! hehehe! she didn't know i took her picture though so, i can't post that and show you guys how cute she is. When one came i headed straight for my Marketing class which was until two, with my classic and unconventional Professor Miss Bam. This is where it gets interesting, she gave us a chance to write for her on some of her friend's magazines and news papers, and of course she promised us that she'd let us put our byline so that we could frame our work, if ever it was published. So Far So Good.. After Marketing is another two hour break until my next and last class which was already catering from five to eight. These last two hours were composed of "Gin Rummy" or "Tong-its" and a consumption of at least a liter of Sarsi or Pop with Ayo, Paul and James. So far my Card Game record is 10-10-5 (Wins, Draws, Losses). So Far so good.. and basically after everything, it was time for the function. After the first function disaster, everyone was in the mood to make up for it. And actually we did great, our kitchen efficiency imnproved from being 30 minutes behind schedule last function to only 5 to 10. Not bad, considering it was just our second function. Now you can identify who were serious and who aren't. because from what i saw, the five to ten minute delay were because of the people who were basically just playing in the kitchen. Sad really, what a wate of good education. Anyways, after everything, i just waited for vic and primo for awhile and headed straight home..
What a long day, but to be honest, it's actually the first time in a long time that i can say that i like what i'm doing and it's school related.. hmm.. cool! i dunno, maybe this is a sign that i am maturing.. hahaha! anyways.. i'm now on my way to bed i still have a hang over from Wacks' sister's Birthday! Adios! PEACE!! Blog Again!

Besides Sancho's Christening and one of the School's 7th floor classrooms caught fire, nothing special really happened this week. I mean, i got a total of 13 hours worth of break every week and sadly in those thirteen hours nothing.. and i mean nothing worth writing about emerged! ain't that a bitch huh?! specially for a person who has a blog! anyways.. yesterday at about 12:30 p.m. one of the 7th floor classrooms caught fire! and thus making the firedrill actually usefull! hahaha! and i thought it was all total bullshit! just an excuse to pause on the classes for 30 minutes or so for a cigarette break! anyways, while everyone was scampering around vicinity looking like idiots, acting as if the whole building was in blazes (for god's sake people! it's just one classroom!)! i was calm enough to take pictures of them looking like dicks! hahahaha!! anyways here they are!
People running for their lives! Acting as if Godzilla is inside the building!

You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world. 20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences. 30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more! 40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax. |

Monday and Already Drunk as F*ck!
After 6 6oz jigger's worth of Jim Beam, 2 6 oz jiggers of Famous Grouse and a shot of Fundador, starting the week with a BARMLAB* subject ain't so bad after all. The only downfall is tomorrow my class is from 8 a.m. till 8 p.m. and i have a catering function from 6 p.m. till 8 in which i am the sous-chef for the desserts*. Tsss... stressful but oh well, a few more terms like this and i'll be done with school and it's off to Alaska or Chicago for me. Anyways, yesterday was Sancho Luis' Christening and my big brother Sieg's birthday. they both celebrated their party in Narra park right behind Zobel. Finally he is already Baptised and we can bring him around town or where ever we wish to bring him. Other than that, it was nice to see the Cristobal's and the Go's all together all in one party. Specially Dad, Mom, Tito Lito and Tita Maripi all in one table conversating blissfully with each other. Nice, Really Nice!

On sports, last saturday i joined the 1st Nike Pac-sports Golf tournament in the ACC*. A free tournament sponsored by Pac-Sports. The tournament scoring was based on handicap and actually i think i would have done pretty well if it wasn't for this person who was with me in my flight. I have nothing against the person, it's just that he should not try and edify me with his golf skills in the middle of the tournament. This is just wrong. Anyway's i know because of this and some of his heartening words thinking it's the first time i got a Par and a Bogey, that i scored badly in this tournament. It's not that i caould actually win the tournament, it's just that, i know without this person, i could have done better. Anyways, to the good part, this tournament is a freebee tournament, initially, just by joining you get to take home a sleeve of Nike One TW gold edition balls which! and also you get free dinner and join a raffle in which i won a TW 60 degree lob wedge which is worth $139. Cool! eventhough i didn't win the tournament, i feel like a total winner!
Anyways, i'm hitting the shack! My head hurts! i'll just post the Photos tomorrow! PEACE!!

And so because of this, i was already in school by 7 a.m. a 2 hour wait for my 2nd and last class for the day because my last class was also cancelled.. i don't know what's up with chef's today?! maybe they're just too lazy to teach. Anyways.. guess what i'm doin now?!..

Yesterday i celebrated my 21st expiration. Cool, i'm of legal age, maybe i'll go the casino tomorrow and try my luck! haha! But you know what, i don't feel 21. Anyways, yesterday consisted of a Golf tournament where we sucked really bad and a party after. I didn't invite a lot of people, infact i just invited the ones i see almost everyday. But surprisingly, alot of people came.. some of them i don't even know personally, but It's cool though i mean at least they came, even if maybe they didn't come for me.. sad though, some people whom i invited and hoped that would come didn't show. Anyways, it was a steady night last night. Thankfully no one was puking all over the place. And everyone was happy.

MALE CODE OF ETHICS (From Justine's E-mail)
Under no circumstances may two men share an umbrella.
Any man who brings a camera to a bachelor party may be legally killed and eaten by his fellow partygoers.
When you are queried by a buddy's wife, girlfriend, mother, father, priest, shrink, dentist, accountant, or dog walker, you need not and should not provide any useful information whatsoever as to his whereabouts. You are permitted to deny his very existence.
Unless he murdered someone in your immediate family, you must bail a friend out of jail within 12 hours.
You may exaggerate any anecdote told in a bar by 50% without recrimination; beyond that, anyone within earshot is allowed to call BS. (Exception: When trying to pick up a woman, the allowable exaggeration rate rises to 400%.)
If you've known a guy for more than 24 hours, his sister is off-limits forever
The minimum amount of time you have to wait for another guy who's running late is five minutes. For a woman, you are required to wait 10 minutes for every point of hotness she scores on the classic 1–10 scale.
Bitching about the brand of free beer in a buddy's refrigerator is forbidden. You may gripe if the temperature is unsuitable.
No man is ever required to buy a birthday present for another man. In fact, even remembering a friend's birthday is strictly optional.
Agreeing to distract the ugly friend of a hot babe your buddy is trying to hook up with is your legal duty. Should you get carried away with your good deed and end up together, your pal is forbidden to speak of it, even at your bachelor party.
Before dating a buddy's ex, you are required to ask his permission and he, in return, is required to grant it.
Women who claim they “love to watch sports” must be treated as spies until they demonstrate knowledge of the game and the ability to pick a buffalo wing clean.
If a man's zipper is down, that's his problem—you didn't see nothin'.
The universal compensation for buddies who help you move is beer.
A man must never own a cat or like his girlfriend's cat.
Your girlfriend must bond with your buddy's girlfriends within 30 minutes of meeting them. You are not required to make nice with her gal pal's significant others—low-level sports bonding is all the law requires.
When your girlfriend/wife expresses a desire to fix her whiny friend up with your pal, you may give her the go-ahead only if you'll be able to warn your buddy and give him time prepare excuses about joining the priesthood.
It is permissible to consume a fruity drink only when you're sunning on a tropical beach…and it's delivered by a topless supermodel…and it's free.
Unless you're in prison, never fight naked.
A man in the company of a hot, suggestively dressed woman must remain sober enough to fight.
If a buddy is outnumbered, outmanned, or too drunk to fight, you must jump into the fight. Exception: If within the last 24 hours his actions have caused you to think, “What this guy needs is a good ass-whoopin'.” Then you may sit back and enjoy.
Never hesitate to reach for the last beer or the last slice of pizza, but not both. That's just plain mean.
If you compliment a guy on his six-pack, you better be referring to his beer.
Never talk to a man in the bathroom.
If a buddy is already singing along to a song in the car, you may not join him.
Before allowing a drunken friend to cheat on his girl, you must attempt one intervention. If he is able to get on his feet, look you in the eye, and deliver a “Leave me alone!" you are absolved of your responsibility.
Under NO circumstances may you ask a friend “Do I look fat in this outfit?”

My New Year's Resolution = None
What's the point on making one if you ain't gonna be able to do it anyway?! i mean, why should i bother. Last year, i said that i'm gonna start going to the gym.. What happened?! i probably went to the gym, not more than ten times last year.. Shieeet.

Last night was Victor's birthday party (Once again Happy Birthday). Before heading for Batangas South, my family (Not including my brother Sieg since he had some Daddy duties) and i dined in the California Pizza Kitchen in the town center. As always, my family would order a lot and then eat a little, thus letting me, my brother wowie and sieg act as a trash compactor and clean out the leftovers. Too bad for me last night, wowie wasn't in a "I want all the leftovers" mood and my brother wasn't around and so i had to finish everything there was on the table. So... by the time i got into Vic's i was fuckin' stuffed. Anyways last night, was one of those nights where you just tell yourself "This hasn't happened in a long time". We wern't as complete as before but thankfully we were alot. JM, Ochie, Granny, Primo, Cocoy, Brian, Keenan, Sieg, Vic and Me. And surprisingly, there were some people who came unexpectedly (The Cuenca Senores). And of course, how can we forget Aiko and Crizelle who had i think an alcohol free night. Anyway's the night went on like before. JM with his 500 meter radius of a laugh, Keenan with his cartoonish ways, JM fuckin' with Cocoy about his frisbee, Sieg and JM trippin woth left over fireworks and all of these crazy ass shit over San Mig Light. The night ended at 3 a.m. and with everybody pretty much drunk and Sieg knocked out.. Classic man, i just have to say.. a gathering like this should happen again.. i hope next time we're complete.

New Years here in 149 Lipa is always celebrated with Dad's patented 6000 rounds worth Sawa (that's divided into 2), A lot of Judas belts, some diablos (The one Mcculay Culckin used in Home Alone 1) and some Nice fountains. And i guess because of that, for the past 5 years or more, we have been the noisiest house in our block when it comes to new year fireworks. Screw the lighting display, we're Chinese! we don't go for that shit! we wan something that blows up and starts a riot when it does! hahaha! Anyway, there's this one house where he tried to compete with our sawa. Ok imagine this..
Scenario:
- The neighbor and my dad lights the sawa the same time.
- After 2 minutes or so.. the neighbor's sawa stops popping..
- After another 2 minutesor so, ours is still making a riot.
- and it goes on for another minute before it stops.
So as you can see.. it's beyond contestation that, here in Lipa st. Ayala Alabang we are the shiznit when it comes to loud ass fire works.. Anyways, in a few hours i'm going back to school.. shit.. anyways, gotta hit the sack! PEACE!! BLOG LATER!! and once again, HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL Y'ALL!!

Lost in Alabang.. and Chillin' in the Chill out South (Steady Night..)
The original plan was to meet in the Town Center and after that, then they'll decide on where to go and what to do. That plan didn't push through so thus Catherine and Pamela Jane was lost in alabang with nothing to do. I was in a Christmas party with the family Encounter when suddenly Catherine texted me, with a message that suddenly reminded me that i was part of what they're supposed to do and saying that they're already on their way to Alabang. And as quick as i could i suddenly rushed to Town Center, with a thought of not letting these ladies wait. Without success, they did wait for me.. (what a dick!). Anyways, they told me that the plan wasn't gonna happent with the reason that the instigator's son was sick. When asked on what they wanted to do, they qucikly replied that they wanted to go dancing.. (Info: Dancing in the south is some what non-existent). With a sad reply i said "That's not possible, what we normally do here is just chill.." and so chill we did. First was in the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. A stratigically positioned coffee shop that is in the old promenade of the town center. The place is just lovely, i'll take some pictures next time. I've been there a lot of times but tonight was the first time there i ordered a large cup of brewed coffee. I basically under estimated the size of there servings there since i'm normally at Starbucks or in Seattle's. Technically, i think, not like Starbucks and Seattles, they haven't been yet affected by price increase and the country's depression. The large cup of brewed coffee there is basically a small cup for a person with the likes of Hagrid from Harry Potter, but anyways the coffee was aight. And so we chilled there for awhile. When Cocoy came, we quicly transferred to the famous Cable Car where they served me and Cocoy those hardass One liter mugs. And for the ladies, they each had just a bottle of the local brewskies. From 10:30 p.m. till 2:20 a.m., the ladies were chillin' South style. Nice way to give them a break on their fast paced north gimmicks. hehehe.. steady night... PEACE!! Blog Later..

Entry 4 days delayed.. (Singapore - Brunei)
In my last entry, i mentioned that in Singapore, i would't be able to do shit. Basically i'm wrong. My whole perspective of the country Singapore is wrong. There may be a lot of rules to follow but basically the country is aight. I'm already considering staying there in a few years. The place, i just have to say is beautiful. The cleanest place i have ever seen in my whole life. Anyways, the only problem i encountered are the people. They can sometimes be too descriminating. Especially to Filipinos like us, probably because we filipinos can survive the high standards of living there and yet not ride with their trend. Maybe that's what's pissing them off.. hehehe.. anyways, here are some pictures i took from my phone (Oh yeah.. thank god i have a new phone!) i'll update you on brunei tomorrow.. and i'm off to the Lynx! PEACE!!

This Week on Mon's Life:
School this week is non-existent. Classes were cancelled last monday because of "Ramadan" and from Tuesday until today we had the YHE (Young Hoteliers Expo) and basically because of that we wern't doin shit. Our professors just makes us sign the attendance sheet on the Multi-Purpose Hall, and basically, we just hang there the whole day watching other students who are involved in the festivities. Anyways, other than school there's nothing new really, well, if you include my golf game going to putz (as if there's still any way for it to go to putz) i guess there's something new but other than that everything is all good. In a couple of days i'm headed for Singapore and Brunei for our school tour. I'm scared rather than excited about that trip because of what i might do that could get me into trouble. Shit, i don't want to get jailed in another country. Especially an Asian country. There are these things i should not forget when i get to them countries.
Brunei:
- Do not Insult the Muslim Culture (it's a Muslim country and if you do insult a muslim, remember that no one is bound to help you since they are all Muslims and you're head might end up in a doggy bag.)
- Do not wear shorts (it's insulting to their culture because you're showing off some skin and they might think that you're teasing them because it's against their belief to show some skin thus, ending up insulting their culture.)
Singapore:(This is where it gets interesting...)
- Do Not Chew Gum (It is a mortal sin in singapore to chew Bubble gum, especially Bazooka and Juicy Fruit because they are more potent than any other gum. and also, they don't like bubble gum sticking under their chairs, benches, tables and whatever. Lasty, breaking this rule can cause serious injury to your back because you can get whipped because of this.)
- Smoke in a Smoking Area (Here in the Philippines, The smoking area is just a place where you ditch you cigarette. The People smoke outside the smoking area. And the sign "No Smoking is merely a suggestion rather than a rule. Also, Breaking this rule may cause serious injury to your back reason explained on the "Do Not Chew Gum Rule".)
You know what, maybe i'll just stay in the hotel and just hold my breath while i'm in Singapore. Who knows maybe breathing hard or even snoring is a major crime there.
Anyways, probably my next entry is already is Singapore or before i leave so if ever! CYAH!! PEACE!! BLOG LATER!!

Been busy writing a novel for the NaNoWriMo contest. I never thought wrting a novel would be hard. There's this minimum of 50,000 words and the deadline is by the end of this month and as far as i know i still have a long way to go. My novel is about what i did last week, and so far i'm still on what happened wednesday last week. Anyways, today ain't as different as yesterday and the day after. Nothing extraordinary happened so far, Just the realization that the last half of the second term will be composed of project manuals and reports. Stressful but i guess for me that's better than staying in the classroom and listening to a professor talk for an hour and thirty minutes. Anyways, tomorrow is another free day and me and my dad will be heading for batangas to play a round of golf... hmmm... nice! Father and Son bonding! hehehe... PEACE!! BLOG LATER!!

I just reformatted my Pc and it's just lovely. It's just like new, a clean slate and all that.. lovely, just lovely. Anyways, It's exactly 8:06 a.m. and i don't know what i'm doing wide awake. I just watched my DVD of "Lord of the Rings: Return of the King" last night and of course as you all know, that's a freakin' long movie and obviously it ended late. So i'm asking myself right now, why the hell am i so energetically up right now.. *sigh* Anyways.. Yesterday was the first time i commuted after playing golf. My brother just dropped Me and Primo in the club because there wasn't any car available in the house and in Primo's. Anyways, after playing one round we decided to go home but i guess no one also could pick us up. So, we left our bags in the bag drop and went outside to wait for a jeep. At first we decided to Cadilak (Walk) until primo's, but eventually a jeep came and to primo's house we went where we got a car, went back to the club to get our bags and then headed straight back home. Commuting home from the club is actually aight, considering it being only at least 2 kilometers away from my house.. next time i'll try walking.. hehehe.. I'll blog again later.. heheh too early.. PEACE!!
note: oh yeah like Mrs. Hekmi i also joined in the NaNoWriMo.. where my writing skills are bound to be tested.. hehe Nice!!

And so my computer suddenly called it quits for the Internet Explorer, Lime Wire, Yahoo Messenger, MSN Messenger, AIM, and worse The Sims 2. This is why i haven't blogged for almost a week. I have been using my sisters iBook G4 but it's just as nice as my desktop. I FUCKIN' WANT MY DESKTOP! but i ain't got no chioce! Anyhow, these past few days were aight, surprisingly and at the same time uncheerfully halloween wasn't that great for me. I caught a cold from my blockmate last Saturday and all throughout the weekend and until now, i still have the damn colds! (Thanks Pam! you're the best!). The whole weekend, my nose was like a fuckin' faucet of snot and son of a bitch! it can be really irritating! But that's not it. The drowsy and heavy feeling when you have colds is just one of the lonliest feelings in the world and especially during halloween. There were parties left and right, but i had to pass on some of them because of my condition. I could just feel my body giving up! Last night there was a party in Nikolo's house, where everyone who were from everywhere was invted. I was with Cocoy, Primo, JP and Vic, we were all planning to go there but depressingly after stopping in Cable Car for a liter of beer each and 2 burgers in Burger Machine, and my system just giving up, we all decided to head home. But hey, we enjoyed out liter of beers! hehehe... anyways, i'm still fucked with colds and Cocoy, Brian, Sieg and Keenan are outside with a lot of bottles of beer... hmmm...PEACE!!! BLOG LATER!!!

The Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Early Wednesday Entry
This compiled entry was only supposed to be for Friday, Saturday and Sunday. But due to my Lazyness also Monday and Tuesday were affected. And so that if ever i forget to post later this evening, i'll be adding my Wednesday entry only it's Early Morning.
Friday:
I didn't attend school friday because of Y.E. #2. I was supposed to go and follow to Y.E. with carlo and Ninoy on Saturday evening but i figured that they might need an extra hand so there, screw my Friday and Saturday class. Friday, was with my sister Aby's Birthday and as one of our family rituals "If one reaches the legal age of 18, one must get a students Permit". and so early morning, I accompanied my sister to the corrupt Land Transportation Office in Las Pinas. The LTO was still as corrupt as ever. Fixers were running around everywhere loking for another victim, thankfully we were there with my sister's driving instructor who knows a certified insider who is also a fixer and after an hour or so, we were through. We headed straight for the Town Center where we met up with our Mom and had lunch. After that, We parted ways with our Mom and headed straight home and i started packing for Y.E. and headed straight for the church where i met up with Mer, Anton, Choy, Justine, Raffy, Chase, Aicah, My Sister and the Other Y.E. #2 participants. 5:30 p.m. we boarded th bus and headed straight for the BLD Covenant house in Cavite where we are going to spend our whole weekend.
Saturday:
Friday night, The Whole Saturday were all composed of work. I forgot to mention we were part of the Y.E.#1 working team. We were all in the Covenant house to serve the Y.E. #2 candidates for their retreat. Anyways, the weekend was based on Prayer Vigil's, Some modules and some secretariat stuff for the candidiates. But the peak of the weekend was the Y.E. #1 presentation. We the staff presented a play that was more of an imitation of that News Show spoof call "Wazzup Wazzup". Anyways, the lead people were Carlo and Ninoy, A perfect combination if you ask me. There was a riot of laughter because of them! Nice one guys!
Sunday:
Sunday had a mixed emotions. You wanted to leave because you were tired and you want to sleep. And at the same time, you didn't because the weekend was just crazy ass fun. Imagine a whole weekend retreat supervised by the Youth for the Youth in a remote covenant house (Hi Tita Maribelle and Tito Blady! you guys are part of the Youth and you guys ain't Elders no more). Now ain't that something. Anyways, 5:30 p.m we had to leave for Alabang. Everyone was too damn tired, when we got to back to Alabang, Me and My sister headed straight for Town for it was my other brother's Birthday. We had Dinner in "The Bannana Leaf where they served Thai/Indian fusion dishes. Lovely, Really lovely. After that i went straight for Gian's house, because it was his Brothers' birthday too (The Triplets Kevin, Leo and i forgot the name of the other one). And then after that..... ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Monday:
I woke up at 12 noon for my 2:30 class, normally i'd wake up at 10 a.m and leave at 11 so that i'd get to school at around 2:00. But i woke up at 12 so i got to school at exactly 2:30 thanks to the Juayma Maureen bys service that passses through the skyway. Anyways, i got to class not knowing it was our midterms in Marketing. I took the test without any reviewing and shit, but so far i know i'm gonna pass that test with flying colors. Next class was Food Hazard Information, the stress for the weekend which i thought was already gone due to my waking up late this morning came back.. i slept through the whole subject. I was woken up by my blockmate and she said.. "UY.. Dissmissal na!" and with a note on the board form the professor saying "I'ts our midterms on Wednesday". Monday night, when i got back from school, after dinner and a few YM's... ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Tuesday
Tuesday was golf day. I woke up early so that i could spend the whole morning playing golf. But because of some minor complications, we tee'd of at around 11:30 a.m. and finished at around 3 p.m. Me, Sieg and Primo tee'd off with this kid that's my sisters classmate from highschool Dax. He's Good (just read my sports blog later).. Anyways, after golf, i was supposed to follow to the 6:30 p.m. mass with the Y.E. 1 and 2. but the stress came back and i slept through the whole afternoon till' 7:30 where Victor came and we played a few games of Virtua Golf and 2K4. And then after the whole thing... ZZZZZZZZZZZ
Wednesday Morning
And so i'm here, 10:24 a.m. i'm supposed to be leaving for school already because i have midterms. But no, i left my wallet in my brother's car. I can't leave for school... i'll continue this later.. PEACE! BLOG LATER!!

Prologue: (Rewind 8 years back)
8 years ago, back when i was still in 6th grade, there was this girl that i liked. First time i laid my eyes on her, i knew that i wanted to be with this girl. There was nothing really special about this girl, i mean she the kind of girl you encounter everyday. The only thing that made her special was her extreme sweetness. She is as sweet as those swiss white chocolates. For two semesters i tried my very best to get her attention, i tried and tried but without success until the start of the third where we were introduced. From there i never did waste any more of my precious time. I only got 1 more semester to make this girl mine. And i knew thta being a 6th grader it's gonna be difficult for me to persue this over the summer for i still wasn't allowed to use the car by myself and i still had a curfew. I did everything to make this girl mine and just 2 weeks before the semester ended, we became an icon. The first week, we were like peas and carrots, nothing can separate us. We even sat beside each other during class and stayed after class just so that we could spend some time together. The second week was a bit different, this is where it all falls down. I could still remember it like it was yesterday. For a week, it's been a routine for me to call her everytime the sun sets and we'd stay on the phone for hours at a time. I could recall it being a Sunday, where just right after the Saint James 7:30 p.m. church service, i went straight for the phone to give her a call. I was already supposed to tell her that Four letter word, but before i could even spell it with my toung, she told me one of the most depressing lines that a person im my state of admiration for someone could ever recieve in their lifetime. She told me that she was migrating to Canada the week after next. The worst part was, she thought i already knew from the start. At that moment, i felt like i was carrying the world on my shoulders. Questions which i already knew the answer to just kept on coming on to me like a broken record. Everything i worked for, gone in just a few words of parting. This was the first time i got jacked for something i worked hard for. But worse, this was the first time i fell in love and got heart broken at the same time. On that moment, i broke everything off with her. I just couldn't stand the pain. I felt like i was cheated on something i wanted and worked my ass off for. From then on, i never spoke to her.. She wrote me a letter which i read, but never replied to. a couple of years after that, she gave me a ring, but i never answered. I did once but i was giving her the cold treatment so that doesn't count. I erased her from my vocabulary, i didn't want to know her anymore. For 8 years this is how i felt... 8 years until now....
I. In My Lifetime Volume 1:
Last Tuesday, that 8 year streak was broken. I finally spoke to the girl after all this time. I saw her up in friendster and i had a message coming from her. She added me in her Yahoo Messenger and i caught her online. We chatted for an hour or so, just catching up on that 8 year gap. I was shocked when i heard some of the things that she told me. One of the things were, she was looking for me, for the past 5 years. Trying to reach me with whatever means possible. I was also shocked to find out that she still knew my Address and phone number. She just wasn't sure if i still lived there and if my digits was still correct. But more importantly, she was still the same sweet girl i knew back then. Nothing really changed with her. Maybe her accent but that doesn't really count. Now, i'm looking forward to my next yahoo messenger chat with her. The wound is still here but it doesn't hurt as much as before. The title "In My Lifetime" are for flash backs like these.. just reminding.. I'll unpdate you guys on this...
P.S. I won't be here from Friday to Sunday so probably my Monday entry will be once again compiled.. PEACE!!!

The Saturday, Sunday and Monday Entry
I wasn't in the right state to publish an entry last Saturday, and because of that night, i got to lazy to make one on Sunday. So i guess this is the weekend recap plus the Monday entry..
SATURDAY:
School was still school. A class from 10 - 12, an hours worth of cigartette break and then another class straight from 1-4 with a cool yet depressed professor. Ever since this term started i noticed something fastidious yet cheerless in our Saturday classroom. As you can see, i spend my Saturdays, with only one professor and in only one classroom. Why fastidious?! because i get to see the transition of the 10 a.m. sun to the 4 p.m. sun. Why cheerless?! because i get to see it stuck inside a classroom with a professor with an uncertain look in his face all the time. Anyway, after school, JP instantaneously called asking me to go to his Celebration. And so I went. When i got there, Cocoy, the dick that he is, automatically gave me 2 shots of "Sombrero Negro Tequilla". Too cut the story short, after an hour or two with at least 5 shots of tequilla, a shot of Stolichnaya and 2 Submarines.. I was pissed Drunk. Victor took me home after awhile and after that, i headed straight for the toilet where i spent the next 3 hours there puking and sleeping while seated on the wall.. I guess i won't be drinking for awhile.. my diaphragm and Esophagus is still sore from all that puking.. Shit..
SUNDAY:
4 a.m. i woke up with a hang over and a really bad migrain in the bathroom downstairs. I tried my best to stand up and walk from the bathroom to my room upstairs where my Aunt was sleeping. When i finally reached my bed, my head was still swirling and my stomach was still fucked. I leaned on the side and again, started to puke on the floor. Thankfully my aunt didn't wake up. After cleaning my mess, i fell back in my bed and slept till 12 p.m. where in after that, Vic woke me up and said that we were teeing off 2 p.m. with Primo and his Dad. Went straight for the club and surprisingly i had a nice game.. and then after that, headed straight for Church and the to Crizelle's house for her birthday dinner. The Dinner in Crizelle's was kinda the peak of my day because the S.E.C. people were there and i haven't seen them for a long time. Even though we wern't complete, at least alot was there. Aiko, Mari, Hachie, Me, Vic, Crizelle and Paulo. Stayed there from 7:30 - 2:00.. The night was aight.. one of those Cigarette free nights for me..
MONDAY:
Woke up 10 a.m. today. Headed straight for school at around 12 noon, where once again i over estimated the traffic and got to school a full hour early for my class. That good but i hate to be too early for my class. Anyways, after my first class i decided to ditch my second one and headed straight home. I wasn't in the mood for Hazard Analysis on Food today. Made pesto today, which i think is too salty.. anyways, I don't think i will be playing golf tomorrow... i'm giving golf a week's worth of rest.. It's just too expensive.. anyways.. PEACE!! Blog later!!

"Think of Happy Thoughts, Peter Pan Did it and he flew, Now it's my turn", that is my family friend's blog descirption. Interesting.. Come to think of it, it's everyone's dream to fly (Maybe not everyone, but it sure is one of mine). I wonder how it feels to be up there?! Up there without being stuck on a huge ass tube with wings for a long time and with a lot of people?! As far as i can remember, the first time i watched Peter Pan in my neighbor's house, i got really pissed because he can fly and i can't. Plus, he isn't aging! goddamn it! what the hell?! anyhow.. I'm gonna continue this tom.. PEACE!

Just awhile ago, some of my friends whom i haven't seen in a very very long time, decided to pay Me, Sieg and Sabrina a visit. 1st it was JM and Ochie and then a couple of minutes after, Christa followed. I have known these people for a very very long time, and it's just nice to know that eventhough we don't see each other as often as before, everything is still the same with everyone. When this shit happens, when friends you haven't seen in a long time just pop out of nowhere, I just can't hep it but reminice about the good old days. I just find it so sad when we start to think about the things that matter, things that we really should think about. Like what will happen to me in ten years, or what will i do after graduating and all that shit. I just find it so depressing because i guess that's a sign that, you are getting old. Anyways, Tomorrow is another free day... Hmmmm.... GOLF! hehehe.. PEACE!!! Blog Later!!!

I woke up pretty late today. Considering i have a class at 2:30 p.m. that's late for me already. Every Monday, i want to wake up early because of this mentality i have saying "Start the week right, and it's gonna be all good until the next one". Well, i guess waking up late probably ain't a good way of starting a week. Anyways, before boarding the bus on our way to school, Me and My Brother Sieg decided to by Jollibee and munch on some Chicken Joy. I just have to say, "No Motherfuckin chicken Can ever, ever, ever, ever, ever and i say ever, compare to the juicyness, the Crispyness and whatever else you want to add to my descripiton of the Chicken Joy!". There's this feeling of Joy after your first bite that no other Chicken can give. Screw Popeye's and KFC! to those people that ain't from the Philippines that are reading this right now! I'M TELLIN YOU! YOU'RE MISSING HALF OF YOUR LIVES! TRY THE CHICKEN JOY NOW!!! Anyhow, after that tantalizing encounter with the chicken joy, we headed for the bus for school where it took us only 24 pesos and 30 minutes to get there. School was still school... stress and all that crazy shit and all. 4:50 - 5:50, my professor who was an imbecile, gave a quiz (which i know i'm gonna pass with high marks). Funny, kuz the whole time i was taking the quiz, she was eyeing me like a hawk!.. I guess she thinks i'm gonna copy off my blockmates. Nice try Miss Professor! better luck next time.. Tommorow is another free day.. Wonder what i'm gonna do?!.. Hmmm..... GOLF!!! HEHEHE! PEACE!! BLOG LATER!

And so, having consumed half a bottle of Jose Cuervo.. i'm drunk. I was first in Anton's house where i hung for awhile and then headed straight for Victor's, where i consumed that half a bottle while conversating about the were issues bothering us. Victor has this issue with work and i had this issue with this girl. I wand this girl yet, i can't have her. Sad... yes but that life right?! you have to live with it. I think this is one fo those things that when you get old, you'll just say, "that was the one that got away". Well.. that's what victor said, but for me, that ain't the shit. I know i'm gonna be with this girl in the future.. hopefully.. possibly... hopefully.. shit man.. i'm drunk... To those people who know me.. Am i too nice?! please comment on this... PEACE!! i have to tee off in a couple of hours!..

Still Another G'Thang (Friday)
The day consisted of school while sountripping. I never took the CD player our of my hand because for some reason, i wasn't in the mood for school. Thankfully i went and eventually it became a productive day. We had a quiz in Marketing and in Hazard Information on food, and i did pretty well for someone who wasn't in an educational mood. On my way home, i rode the Erjohn bus which was on route to Alabang through the Coastal road. Normally it takes you at least an hour and a half just to get to Alabang-Zapote due to the traffic. Today, the weirdest thing happened, there was no traffic. I left Taft avenue 6:15, i was already in the jeepney stop of Ayala by 7:30. Wild.. i'm telling you. Anyways, There was also this earthquake a couple of hours ago (it's 3 a.m.), it's a strong one i just have to say (5.5 in the rickter scale). I hope the aftershock ain't stronger. I would just like to pint out that, i couldn't have gone through the day without God and my CD Player. Today is another school day, no weekend for me, Sunday is not considered as one due to the next day is another school day.. PEACE.. blog again later..

Tried, and tested.. Yes, too much studying can cause brain damage. Before my 2:30-3:30 marketing class, i studied.. why?! i dunno, maybe because i was an hour early and i wasn't doin shit. And then after my 2:30-3:30 marketing class, i had a break from 3:30-4:50 where i stayed in the library and studied again because my professor saw me walking in the corridor of the IC and informed me that we were gonna have a quiz. And so, 4:50-5:50, My intelligent professor who by the way is celebrating her birthday tomorrow didn't give the quiz. Why? i dunno.. oh yeah, i forgot she told me she was delusional! Anyways, after my class, i studied on my way home.. why?! because i had a feeling i had to.. and so, beacuse of all these shit.. my head hurts, and so i therefore conclude.. TOO MUCH STUDYING CAN CAUSE BRAIN DAMAGE!
Note: "i pity those taking law and medicine.. PEACE!"

After watching "Rasing Helen" with Santi and Mandy and playing Need for Speed Underground the whole night, Today i wake up at 12 noon. Not even an hour of being awake, Victor calls saying "Tee-Off tayo! i'll pick you up in 20 Minutes". And so after 20 minutes and with out so much of taking a bath, we headed straight for the club. Basically, my day consisted of sleeping and playing golf. Can you call that a productive day?! honestly?.. anyhow.. tomorrow is another school day, i hope something interesting happens..

The Weekend Recap.. Saturday, Friday, Sunday.. (Still the same G'thang)
First up, Happy Expiration to Gian De Leon! hehehe.. Thank you for the Bottle of Jose Cuervo. Anyways, I'm thanking the man way way up there for making my weekend as steady as steady can get. Normally i'd be babbling about something crazy that happened during my weekend but so far, Nothing fucked up or what so ever happend, just some pure Relax and Relaxation and a little bit of school stuff on the side. There was a party yesterday at La Pavillion in Manila Bay, Care of Hed Kandi and Andy Noman. I was supposed to go but i sleepless from the party the night before and from school so insted, I chilled in Primo's house and played Jengga with Audrey, Vic and Jose Cuervo. Friday my Ate Sansan gave birth to a healthy little girl who's name is gonna be Zoe! Congratulations! And Friday was also Gian's party. Lots of food, lost of Liquor and of course lots people! No one got drunk but alot people left early because of school or work the following day and by 2 a.m. the only ones left were Me, Pish, Gian, Jay Cee and Alvin. Today, after a long long time, me and La familia went to Greenhills. Nothing really changed from that place, maybe the new carpark but other than that it's all the same. and oh yeah.. i bought new Golf Shoes! Cool! Anyways, Tomorrow is the start of another week.. Hope it ain't a fucked up one! PEACE!!!
