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 Are 13 Years Old

13 Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe. 13-19: You are a teenager at heart. 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.

What Age Do You Act?

Got this off Bart's Blog.. and oh yeah bart.. Rachel Ray rocks! A Woman who can cook for shit and looks good! Shhhheeeeiiiit!! man! i gots to hook up with a chick like this one!! hmmm... i wonder...

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!!

Bored... (Not in the mood to write)

Basically, nothing happened today.. My 8 a.m. class was cancelled and i totally forgot all about it. 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?!..




You are a Mod. Yeah baby.


What kind of Sixties Person are you?

Maybe tomorrow i got something better to say.. PEACE! Blog again tomorrow!

The 21st Expiration

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.

Here are some pictures:

Tomorrow i might just skip school, i dunno i'll maybe just play golf. Anyways, 3 more days and it's my 21st expiration. God i feel so old, Anyways on that day i'm also joining this club golf tournament.. hey who knows, i might hit a Hole in One.. hehehehe.. I'd write some more but i can hear my bed calling me...

What is with the name "Joross"?! i ain't got nothing against the dude, he's probably a nice guy but it's just that, his name cracks me up everythime i hear it or see it on the billboard on my way home from school. They said that it's a mixture of his dad's and mom's name. But honestly, would you name your kid "Joross"? i wouldn's even if Victor paid me a millon dollars. just try and pronounce it.. "Joooo-Rossss". Hahahahahahaha! Sorry dude, nothing personal.. it's just your name..

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?”

This Year's Very First Entry and 2 nights ago

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!!

ONE is a new effort to rally Americans -- ONE by ONE -- to fight global AIDS and extreme poverty. The ONE Campaign is engaging Americans everywhere we gather -- in churches and synagogues, on the internet and college campuses, at community meetings and concerts. ONE will be promoted with the help of a diverse coalition of faith-based and antipoverty groups, celebrity spokespeople as well as corporate partnerships and local ONE Campaign organizers. The campaign will show the steps people can take, ONE by ONE, to fight global AIDS and extreme poverty.

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!!
