I was in this long line waiting for my turn to purchase train tickets. Suddenly, this lady bumped the side of my shoulder when she passed by my back. I semi-lost my balance and popped out of the line. It was more like hopped out from it in my struggle to keep my balance. It really had to happen just when my officemate looked at my direction. Naturally, she laughed at me just like how the other huge guys lined up did.
Sablayness has stuck once again!

Bus Ride
Imagine this:
You are in a bus on your way home after a looooooong day in work.
All you want is a quiet ride home so that you can relax.
But lo and behold... the conductor isn't the only one shouting.
There is a weird guy yelling:
Magandang gabi po. Ako si *insert name*. Commerce graduate ng *insert university*. Humihingi po ako ng tulong. Baka po may konting pera kayo diyan... para po makapag-print ako ng akin resume. Alam yo po naman na hindi ako pwede mag-apply kung wala resume.
A couple of good hearted people handed him money. But after 10-15 minutes he began to shout again:
Magandang gabi po. Alam yo naman po na 11% sa atin ang walang trabaho. Kaya po baka mayroon kayong konting pera diya para makapag-print ako ng resume.
That was not all. After another 10-15 minutes, he gave unwanted advice regarding call centers and what so ever that I have no interest in. The conductor reprimanded him however he still continued his stunt.
Stress!
Hmm, this wans't the first time I saw the guy. I know, with all the buses available how come I picked the one with this queer guy! Now I am disturbed. Is he going to use the money he got to print those resumes or not? I wanted to tell him: Do you have a softcopy of your resume? I can print it for you. And if you want, I can even forward it to different companies. Hmm, maybe that was all crap since whenever he received money the expression on his face did not change. He did not look grateful in any way. Then again, maybe it was really scripted for his thesis or something.

Knowing Is Better Than Wondering
Is he still bitter?
He did not reply to my message, however, when I used another number earlier he answered.
Obviously he is still avoiding me. But why?
Last time we were in the same venue, we didn't acknowledge each other's existence. I tried to catch his gaze but he avoided it. Even if he was all alone, he opted to occupy himself with his phone.
Is he still bitter with whatever happened between us in the past? Puh-lease! Stop being a kid! Past is past. Whatever good/bad things that occurred is done. There is nothing that can be done to erase those events. Then again, maybe his life partner is oberly jealous. Haha.
Is there something wrong with my attempt to be nuetral with him?

Letting It Out
Have you been in a situation wherein you kept something in for a quite sometime? Then comes a point when you feel like you want to let it out? I've been in this situation a number of times. I've desperately tried to get something out of my system for two days however, I was unsuccessful after several attempts. It wasn't a very good feeling. I felt uneasy as I sat there and while I wait for something to happen. Finally... it came out! Thank God, even if the place and time wasn't that desirable.
Success!
Success!

Alcoholic
Alcohol
can make you laugh
can make you cry
can make you talk
can make you realize things
can make you crazy
can kill your brain cells
can kill you literally as well
Alcohol is dangerous to one's health.
I am not an alcoholic... I am the person who watches over and takes care of the drunkards. I've seen people knocked out, barfed, laughed, cried, blabbed, etc. It's not an easy job, but someone has to do it. Plus, I don't think I've been drunk ever in my life.. well, maybe just a bit tipsy and that, but still I am sane. At times, I get to know the inner most feelings or the deepest anger of others. I do not mean too, but they just keep on talking the night/morning away. I get bothered occassionaly for I do not know how to handle the different scenarios. What will I tell them to make them feel better? Or would it be better for me not to say anything at all?
Oh well, at least we've formed a bond of some sort.
