In the meantime someone has to come up with new words to say at wakes and funerals. condolences -- waht exactly are those? "I'm sorry for your loss" -- why, you didn't kill her. "I know how you must feel" -- of course you don't, you're not me. "Words fail to express"-- then why are you saying them? It's not words that fail, it's the people who wield them. We have no power over life and death, we are subject to pain and disease and misery, but we command words. When you think about it, words are all we really have.

Boo Boo
1st Case:
My friend called me up and asked if I was still in the office. I said I was on my way to G4. Then he said he made a boo boo. He said that he was on his way to training... which was way South, but guess where he found himself? In Bu3ndia --- where my office is. Umm, yeah. Alright. No comment.
2nd Case:
After we bought tickets, we were divided the change. Officemate A has 60 bucks change, officemate B has 10 bucks change and so on. But we had 140 bucks extra! We had 7 tickets which was correct. But 7 multiplied by 140 was 980, however the lady billed us 840 only. Woooh, money for ice cream! Then we realized the lady gave us tickets for the 7:30 show and not the 8PM show! No wonder we had extra money. Luckily we were able to change our tickets.
Pwede bang batukan yo ako?

New Toy
I got myself a new toy.
It has a squarish silver black face.
Same goes for the body but it has a rectangular shape.
It has a Pentium dual mind.
80 gig, 224 MB, blah blah..
Yes, she is a pc.
Any name suggestions?
How does Persephone sound?
Help!

In Between
Being somewhere in between is complicated. It has its pros and cons. Being almost there but not really there is like being so near and yet so far. Not knowing where to stand. Not knowing if something is real or something you just want to believe in.
Being in an indeterminate state…
It is grueling to place yourself. It is grueling to figure out where to place yourself. It is grueling to figure out what you can and cannot do especially when you are expected to do this. It gets tiring to try to read minds… to reckon things out. The how’s and the if’s.
It is strenuous to be in a situation wherein you yearn for something you know you cannot have. It is wicked to make someone hope in something that they cannot attain. It is evil to keep someone’s hope alive when someone does not have a chance at all. It is unreasonable to give a foretaste of something you will take away so soon, so fast.
However, what if you never find something as beautiful? What if that was the best of the best? Then you will be comparing everything that comes your way...
To be in an indeterminate state is to feel your way. Are you in or out? Where are you – are you there yet? Should you or shouldn’t you? Can you or you cannot? And since you are in limbo, you cannot even say if you can.
It is grueling if you are somewhere in between. Since this time you are the one hanging. It is your fate that is uncertain. It is you who is guessing. And you are not guessing between what is real or artificial. You are guessing between all infinite possibilities like a multiple choice type of exam.
Bottom line, it is difficult to be caught somewhere in between… especially when the people involved are your friends.

On Connections
Connection is a relationship in social affairs. It is a link or bond between parties. Possessing the appropriate connections may go a long way. On the other hand, having none sucks.
Waiting in line for you turn after arriving really early is annoying. Having someone who just came in then be accommodated instantly is infuriating! Well, that is the power of connections.
Then again, it is not fault that the doctor is the sister of the girlfriend of one of my dad’s closest friend.

Weekend Update
FRIDAY
Originally I planned to leave the office by 6PM.. around 630PM would be the latest supposedly in order for me to catch my 7PM dinner. Then again, I left the office at almost 7PM! Why do they have to plan meetings on a Friday?
Luckily I was able to catch up despite the circumstances. I followed them to this Japanesse coffee shop named UCC (Ueshima Coffee Company) Coffee in Podium. When I arrived they already ordered. Habol nalang ako. I got myself this Chicken Terriyaki Big Plate. The serving was huge and there was a cold salad included. It was very filling! Afterwards, we got this thick toast with chocolate syrup and whipped cream for dessert. I forgot what it was called. Pasensya naman, pagod ako galing opisina.
Too bad my aunt had to go back to the hotel abruptly cause her acidity acted up. Then again, maybe butterflies were circling in her stomach cause the Bishop who was scheduled to marry her the next day informed my other aunt that he could not make it. There was a mix up. Bishop thought that the wedding was in the morning so he blocked the whole morning instead of the whole afternoon. Ayay! As an alternate, a priest who recently finished his "priesthood" schooling would be the one to "unite" them in their church wedding.
We followed my aunt in hotel, danced a little ballroom and exchanged stories before sleeping.
** end of story... to tired.. i mean tamad to continue...

What Is It?
After 5 consecutive days of non-stop continuous messages suddenly I hear nothing. Silence. No follow through. Are you disappointed that I did not budge to your moves?
I do not know if I heard that conversation correctly but their exchange appeared differently. Sorry to dishearten anyone, but I am not an equestrian who would desire to ride on your style.
Dude, what is your style?
“I'll just figure everything is cool. Until I hear it from you.”

Touch Me Not
I am not a touchy person. A simple body contact of any sort is already something even if theoretically it is just nothing. A hand on my back that guides me while crossing makes me uneasy. A hand on my waist while sitting on the trunk of a car while drinking beer is alarming. A lax hug and a beso before I get in my house is mind boggling!
