i finally have a new cellphone.
my previous one was stolen. this time, i've chosen it myself. i didn't get it for free. but still, had a lot of help getting it. this time, i know, it is the one for me...
i forgot when my last terrible weekend was. if there were any this year, one was surely this past weekend.
i went home early on saturday to find my cell phone missing. unexpectedly, it was stolen. by someone i knew who was already gone. in my home. my sister-in-law felt dumbfounded. i looked it. and slept through it.
sunday came and there was never a day this whole year that i've made and been plagued by as many bad choices as i have that day.
woke up early. decided to surf the web for the nearest pal ticketing ofc, get a reservation number from an email, then buy my ticket to paradise a.ka. boracay. what was i thinking?! the nearest pal ofc was in front of the mall i frequent to eat breakfast after work. the mall where i was surfing. and i never thought it would be closed on a sunday!
i was forced to go to the airport to buy the ticket. it sounded better than waking up early the next morning to go back to that ofc i overlooked. but i had to windowshop for a phone first.
the line was long at the airport and agents there were so slow. it was almost 1pm and my brother told me we'd go to the mall after lunch to buy a new phone. there were still 60 people ahead of me and about 20 people's tickets were processed every hour. my temper took its toll and i decided to wing it. so i went home. the phone was the priority before the ticket. the ticket would still be available for purchase the following day anyways. the phone is on limited offer.
i got home. starving. there was a small construction for a drainage system in the house. men were working on it. they started when i left. my brother said we'd leave at about 4pm. should've thought of that. should've thought of that. and there was no food left. and i still haven't had sleep for the hours when i should be getting them.
we left for the mall late in the afternoon. we stopped at abensons where they had a 12-month installment for all items. i planned to get the phone i've been eyeing for a long time. sony ericsson K750i. with 2 megapixel camera, video, and mp3. and it comes in black. it would only be 2200 every month. not bad at all for a dream phone. what's bad news is that they will be making a debit from my bro's card in full. and who doesn't need his/her credit? it'll take out all credit that's left in my bro's card.
i won't be getting my dream phone after all. and so, we left the mall temporarily to get my niece from school. we should have gotten to her first before going to the mall. but that wasn't my decision. hehe. and then, we went back.
the second option was to get a line phone. not the prepaid one. and not just a unit. it was supposed to be more cost effective. i looked up the price earlier and i can afford it. the model was one-step down from the phone i want and came in silver. it was 8000+ upfront for the unit. 800 every succeeding months for the phone service. still not so bad. until we got to the requirements. i wasn't able to get them earlier. my brother said i didn't do my homework. we'd have to wait until next weekend to apply for it. ok. my sister-in-law described plainly how i felt that time. pissed. hands up in resignation.
then we went to the grocery/mall. still starving and aching to buy food right away. i'll pay for it. but we had to make a stop at the topmost floor to exchange perfumes my brother bought the other day. in that same floor was a cell phone shop. my brother asked if i checked it out earlier. i didn't. i expected it to cost a lot more than i could afford. i'd have to pay for the whole price of the unit upfront. no doubt about it. but then i looked anyway. and there it was. the magic price to pay. 8500 upfront by credit card. a phone unit that's far from the one i really want but got everything i needed and almost has the same look as what i've thought of. it didn't come in black. it was simple. and it was gray. they had to get another unit from another branch. the person before me got the last one in the store. and that's where i saw it from. it wasn't on display anymore. i liked it right away. we bought it right away. and had dinner. and i paid for it. dearly.
as for the sim, it came for free. touch mobile.
i feel it's just a preview of things to come, don't you think?

confessions of a celebrity poker addict
i always thought that life is a gamble. what i've realized is, you have to know when to fold, how to bluff, what to bet, and when to go all-in.
and for a time, i knew for sure i was right...
until i saw how dennis rodman played.
rodman gave-up cards that could have been played and bet high on cards that no one else would thought of playing. when only 2 players were left out of 5, the other player, who was already short-stacked, got a King-7 and went all-in. those are definitely good cards to play. rodman has 7-2. goodluck. having won most of the pot and given how he played most of the night, he did not back out. why shouldn't he? but having 7-2 as cards, why add more money to the pot for your opponent to get? we'll never know.
but here's how it turned out:
the flop was laid-out. that's the first 3 common cards for all players. it turned out to be a Jack, a 10, and a 5. i think. the other player still has the best cards so far. the poker expert commented that he was 60% to win from there. or higher. the next card is called the turn. it was a 2. now, rodman has a pair. the last card is called the river. it was a 10. sealing rodman's victory with a two-pair.
talk about luck. but i think it became luck because he had the balls to play it. and he was doing that the whole night.
he didn't give a d*mn about what people might think. to him, there's no such thing as losing. not because he was always winning. but it' just not in his vocabulary. it's all for charity. he says. i learned a lot from rodman that day.

the sandman and i
Who would have thought that this will happen in one's lifetime? to have your most favorite author sign a book for you and in your name,
to meet him, be near him, to smell him, and hear him tell a story you haven't heard before, and get some proof for it...hehe
dreams do come true, even the ones you never even imagined.
after all, we all know how to dream but we wouldn't know what a good thing is until we get it.

horoscopes
AQUARIUS Jan. 20 - Feb 19 SINO ang taong gusto mong kapiling habang panahon? Mag-isip ka nang mabuti bago sumagot, dahil isang salita mo lang, agad na kikilos ang langit upang ikaw ay ayunan. Masuwerteng kulay - pink; Masuwerteng numero - 4, 13, 26, 34, 38 at 40.
p. 13 BULGAR Hunyo 28, 2005
"ayokong maniwala sa horoscope. pero, sige, pwede na rin..."
ARIES: Kailangan mong magrelaks. Mapapagod ka sa paglipat ng gamit. Pero nang dahil sa paglapit ng planetang Benus sa Mars, may manlilibre sa yong Aquarius ngayong araw. Alam niyang naubos ang pera mo sa MNG nung nakaraang byernes hanggang linggo. Ayan ay kung papayag ka. Kung hindi, maaring di na kayo magkita muli. Ayyy.
Isa na namang mahiwagang agahan kasama si Vince at Jim at sa ngayong pagkakataon, sa Mister Donut naman. Ok lang na pangit ang chicken turnover...
sayang...nalungkot si Jim at umuwi nang bigo.

breakfast on a whim
.
soundtripping again. ang ganda pala talaga ng yahoo!launchcast station ko. got reunited (peaches and herb) with michael mcdonald, al green, marvin gaye, john mayer, norah jones, etc. now, this is what i've been looking for...
today's the 3rd time i had a hearty breakfast on a whim with a specific set of my new friends (uhmm...well...relatively new friends) at work and it feels like home. i've been missing my groups of friends for the past 2 months. it's a mystery why i don't ask them out. i've been enjoying going out with 1 good friend every weekend and just enjoying good food and good cinemas (take note: not movies, cinemas hehe may lazy-boy chairs sa gateway, araneta center wuw!) and it never occurred to me even once to invite my group of friends out. it's probabaly because i know the answer. or do i?
anyway, it was pancake house breakfast for the second time. the first was on the second time we ever thought of having breakfast on a whim. haaay. kahit sa pagsusulat ko, nadadala ko pa rin ang "10 na lang para 7" na sa office pa nanggagaling na bilangan.
let's make it chronological. 1) breakfast at hotshots with sunshine and ann; 2) breakfast with vince at burger king greenbelt 1; 3) breakfast at burger king greenbelt 1 with vince, jim, corey, geb, and francis; 4) bre-- teka, ba't ako sulat ng sulat ng breakfast?! meron bang hinde?--pancake house, valero st. with vince, jim, and corey; 5) figaro, salcedo st. with vince and jim; 6) pancake house greenbelt 1 with vince, jim, and corey today. if you know how to count, you'd know who i like having breakfast with.
no. 5 was the best i've had so far. not only did it go on to lunch at NSG and game 3 of NBA finals, it did wonders for me. i wanted to write again. i got to have a good conversation in a group about nothing again. it made me look forward to something again. best of all, the destination did not matter. getting there did.
and these, are what came out of it...
Version 1
Figaro 9:20 AM
38 minutes 46 seconds before the MNG store opens. ruby is smoking her last cigarette, drinking her cup empty, waiting. just this saturday, she found herself inside the store and saw me. it was love at first sight.strange. never spared a glance at me before. now, i'm still here, waiting. she thinks i'll look better on you but she'll take a chance. she knows i will surely warm you up on a rainy day.
Love,

Version 2
NSG 10:10 AM
38 minutes 46 seconds after the MNG store opened. ruby should have been asleep by now and yet, she's still tapping on the keyboard, sending her last email, waiting. just this saturday, she found herself inside the store and saw me. it was love at first sight.strange. never spared a glance at me before. now, i'm still here, waiting. she thinks i'll look better on you but she'll take a chance. she knows i will surely warm you up on a rainy day.

pagod
lahat ng mga pc dito sa office, pagod na pagod. naka-standby lang parati. mula sa kasama kong si virgil na katabi ko na naman.
siguro nga ganun din lang ako. sa wakas ay bumigay na rin ang katawan ko. kakagaling ko lang sa sakit at wala pa dapat akong balak umabsent kaso lang nawalan na talaga ako ng boses kaya ayun, sa kaunaunahang pagkakataon ay di ako pumasok at nag-call-in na lamang, labag man sa kalooban ko. di rin ako dapat papasok ngayon pero ewan ko at napabangon pa rin ako kahit naisip ko na ang dahilan sa hindi pagtrabaho. nag-iba na talaga ako. buti at nakakahanap pa rin ako ng dahilan sa pagbangon tuwing hapon kahit wala.
wala.
wala na naman akong nakikitang maganda sa buhay ko nitong mga nakaraang araw. mahirap ang makalimot.
natuwa naman ako't nabasa ko ulit ang blog mo, peng. natawa ako sa hindi bastos mong boypren. hehe at ikinagagalak kong mag-u-up baguio ang kapatid mo. pero inggit ako. inggit dahil wala akong bagong nadidiskubreng kanta na makakabago sa araw ko.
sumaya lang ako nitong nakaraang linggo dahil nakakain ako ng masarap na breakfast sa pancake house. french toast at best tacos in town. sana maulit muli yun. hmmm makakain nga ng hapunan dun ngayon...
malamang pagod lang ako. sana masilayan ko ulit ang mga dahilan kung bakit ako masaya, kung bakit ako nag-iba. alam ko hindi kakulangan ito. nakalimot lang ako. nabubulag na naman. sana saglit lang.
naka-standby lang din siguro ako.

Mula sa "Maraming dahilan pero ang dahilan ko ay ikaw."
By Marian Hernandez, PDI, May 4, 2005, Section F1
Hindi ko mabilang ang mga araw na binulungan ko ang Diyos para alagaan ka higit pa sa makakayanan kong gawin. Ikaw ang nagturo sa akin na hindi sapat ang pag-ibig lamang. Ngunit hindi rin masama na umapaw ito. Tulad ng pag-apaw nito sa ating mga labi, daliri, balat, titig, ugat, salita at ngiti.
Ikaw lang ang nakatagpo sa tunay na ako. At hindi ka umatras o ngangahas lumayo, lalo ka pang ngang lumapit para tignan pa ako nang malinaw, sinta. Mas malinaw sa inakala mo'y malinaw na pagkilala mo sa akin.
Ikaw ang nakakaalam ng bawat hibla ng aking pagkatao, dahil sa'yo, hindi ako natatakot. Hindi ko lang ramdam ang pagmamahal, alam ko pa ito. Alam na alam. Kilalang-kilala. Tulad ng pagkilala ko sa mga kakulangan mong hindi bumabawas sa'yo, bagkus lalo pang dumaragdag sa iyong kagandahan.
Sana'y hindi mo lang alam, ramdam mo pa ito. Sana'y kilala mo rin ako.

it was part luck and part good decision. somehow, i was firm enough not to join my first friends at work in their 2am - 11am shift. i insisted in getting the 9pm - 6am shift. as it turned out, i became part of the most crazy and most fun team in our account, later known as:
TEAM BANGALORE (Off to Bangalore, 7May2005)

going down the elevator of my office building has always been a treat. not only am i going to a place where i can smoke but i also get to hear the sounds of the guards of the graveyard shift. if i get lucky, i share the elevator with someone...
I never had anything happen so fast
I took one look and I shattered like glass
I guess I let it show 'cause your smile told me you knew
That you're everything I ever wanted at once
There's no holding this heart when it knows what it wants
And I never wanted anything more than to know you
I was swept away
No one in the world but you and I
Gotta find a way to make you feel the way that I do
I was swept away
Without a warning
Like night when the morning begins the day
I was swept away
And so it begins
This journey of love
The summer wind carries us to places all our own
The words of a look
The language of touch
The way that you want me means so much
And I never wanted anything more than to love you
Seeing my tomorrows in your eyes
I was swept away
I hope I wake up soon
I'm a victim of that crazy moon
The very first time you said my name
I knew it would never sound the same
Something about me is changed forever
I never had anything happen so fast
I took one look and I shattered like glass
I guess I let it show 'cause your smile told me you knew
That you're everything I ever wanted at once
There's no holding this heart when it knows what it wants
And I never wanted anything more than to know you
I was swept away
No one in the world but you and I
Gotta find a way to make you feel the way that I do
I was swept away
Without a warning
Like night when the morning begins the day
I was swept away
And so it begins
This journey of love
The summer wind carries us to places all our own
The words of a look
The language of touch
The way that you want me means so much
And I never wanted anything more than to love you
Seeing my tomorrows in your eyes
I was swept away
I hope I wake up soon
I'm a victim of that crazy moon
The very first time you said my name
I knew it would never sound the same
Something about me is changed forever

text message from a friend:
(from a book she read)
there's no use in loving someone you can only wake up to by chance.

Norah Jones Live!
Araneta Coliseum March 12, 2005
i forgot to put an entry for this...
i want to wake up with the rain
falling on a tin roof
while i'm safe there in your arms
so, all i ask is for you to...
norah jones sang about 20 songs straight without intermission, including my favorite song, humble me. i just wish i can watch her perform again in smaller venue while drinking wine by candlelight...
