Bitter - Sweet Day

September 21, 2007 – 11:37 am
Today is a weird day. Not in a weirdly weird way, but more like weirdly confusing sense. I never felt a myriad of emotions for a long time. Usually, I'm either just happy, or sad, or bored, or sleepy, or angry. First to the bad stuff. I might have mentioned that my brother was away for almost 4 months because he was reviewing for the electrical engineering board examinations. The exams was last weekend, and the results just came in this morning. He did not pass. Deep down inside, I somehow knew that this would happen. I always have this sixth sense about things, you know like precognition. And I felt days ago that things would turn out bad for my brother. I feel for him because I knew that he really studied hard and dedicated himself to this. On a happier note, I got some good news for myself. I took an ...

Grrr… I Might be Getting Sick

September 4, 2007 – 4:01 pm
I don't know what happened. Suddenly, I'm just feeling weak. It's not just some ordinary fever. I feel that my insides are all aching and then I have no strength to do anything. All I want ot do right now is lay in a bed and sleep. Ugghh. To top it all, we're supposed to have a meeting at 7pm. Wahohoho... I don't really want to miss another meeting so I'm going to have to wait for another 3hours. Perhaps I can go home by 5pm, change and rest a little then leave at 7pm. I don't know. I'm just feeling bad right now. :(

You Were Meant For Me

September 3, 2007 – 3:38 pm
I was feeling nostalgic today. I think I relapsed for a bit and now I've got Jewel's "You Were Meant for Me" on repeat. Damn. Here's the lyrics. You can sing and cry with me. I hear the clock, it's six a.m. I feel so far from where I've been I got my eggs and my pancakes too I got my maple syrup, everything but you. I break the yolks, make a smiley face I kinda like it in my brand new place I wipe the spots off the mirror Don't leave the keys in the door Never put wet towels on the floor anymore' cause Dreams last for so long even after you're gone I know you love me And soon you will see You were meant for me And I was meant for you. I called my momma, she was out for a walk Consoled a cup of coffee but it didn't wanna talk So I picked up a paper, it was more bad news More hearts being ...

10 Years Ago

August 24, 2007 – 11:39 pm
Ghawd. Has it been really ten years? Ten years ago I was a 14-year old high school student. I was in pigtails and braids, and uniforms. I had lollipop in my mouth. I slept at 2 am and woke up at 5:30 am. I listened to MLTR, Hanson, Savage Garden, N-sync, Backstreet Boys, Spice Spice Girls and a whole lot of other "bands" I have already forgotten or rather trying to forget. And most of all, I worshipped Boyzone. Cringe, cringe, cringe... Of course right now, I would rather eat a glassful of chillies and peppers that utter those words. It was not my fault. I'm blaming it on ranging hormones, a lack of sleep and for not knowing any better. I did not know better when I was spending all of my allowance buying every songbook, magazine, newspaper and poster that have even a tiny picture of them. I blame it on ...

The Benefits of a Very BIG Bag

August 15, 2007 – 2:50 pm
If I could vote for the greatest invention of the century, I would vote for BIG bags. At least, that is how I feel right now. I have just recently bought a bag. The bag is big, 13 inches across and 16 inches high. It has now become one of my favorite bags. It is very useful and convenient, especially when I am on the rush and have no time to organize (which often happens). I just stuff all my stuff (heh) in the bag: mug, folders, lunch bag, cellphone, wallet and anything my hands would accidentally grab. As always, I was in a rush going to the office. I got off my usual stop and walked a few feet to the jeepney stop. I was kind of putting my big bag behind me and not really clutching it tight because I was afraid that my application forms for ATO (Air ...

Where Am I? Who Are You?

August 10, 2007 – 8:53 am
Have you ever answered the phone and heard the voice from the other line saying "Hello?! Hello?! Who is this? Who are you? Where is this?" Damn. This never fails to make my blood simmer a little. Why the hell are YOU asking ME who you're calling?! You're the one who called. Aren't you supposed to know who you're calling? Caller: Hello? Hello? Me: Yes? Caller: Who is this? Who are you? Me: Who is this, please? Caller: Where are you? Me: Who is this please? Caller: Where am I calling? Who are you? Me: Who are you calling? Caller: Where is this? Me: What do you want? Caller: Where is this? Who are you? Me: Who is this please? Caller: Where am I calling? Where is this? Me: It's my home, you &%^@! Caller: Where are you living? Me: What the hell do you want? Caller: Where is this? Me: In hell. Why? Do you want to go here? Caller: ...

forget it…

August 9, 2007 – 11:39 am
“Some normally quiet areas of your heart and soul start waking up. Ignoring them won’t make them go away — in fact, it’ll have quite the opposite effect. They want to be heard. They need to be heard! So listen.” arrrghhh….!!! that’s what my horoscope says today… not the “arrghh” part but about listening to my inner heart and soul… well, that’s the thing i haven’t done for quite some time now… do you remember the “tin man” on wizard of oz? yeah… the one who had no heart and couldn’t feel anything… i think i have conditioned myself to be the “tin woman”… physically present… breathing, talking, even laughing… but not feeling anything… i’m actually okay being in this state… it’s uncomplicated and i’m not as confused as before… so forget what my horoscope says…

New look? Thinking of Changing My Wordpress Theme

August 6, 2007 – 5:37 pm
Lately, I have been coming across wordpress themes which are already SEO'd which means that they are Search Engine Optimized. I have just been recently aware that most Wordpress themes are not SEO-friendly, hence they lower a blog's chances of being found and indexed properly by search engines. This is especially important if you want to make money out of your site since traffic derived from search engines are more likely to generate more clicks from you. The only thing that's holding me back is that I very much like my current theme and it is only about 3 months old. Is it too soon to change my theme? Well, I'm still pondering this question. But in the meantime, I'm also looking for SEO'd themes that might suite my tastes. Maybe I will have to tinker with some graphics and stuff.

I am not feeling well

July 31, 2007 – 3:29 pm
I have been feeling bad since last night. I think I might be coming off with a fever and all my insides are just aching. I actually just curled up in front of the tv last night watching Heroes and then some other shows. I was too lazy and weak to get up so I just laid in the couch, unmoving. I got up when it became apparent that I couldn't already understand a word they were saying. I popped a tablet of paracetamol and drank a glass of water and proceeded to bed. I felt really crappy, so I read a book: one of my sleeping books - the ones which I've already read a thousand times, I almost memorized every word. It actually worked (as they mostly do) and my eyes were really getting heavy after just a few pages. And then I was out like a light. I actually woke ...
