Two.Zero.One.Two

I was rifling through my notes last year, 2011, in preparation for planning activities this year and found this:

Why Do I write for Tugon

@lividgabo sat infront of his computer at home, not knowing where to end. Several alt+tabs and google searches later, he was still uninspired. He had only till midnight to finish his article. And that is why he writes. The thrill of meeting the deadline and coming up with something apt and beautiful inspires him!

Reading it, I knew that it somehow summarized half of my life and my viewpoint on things. I cram because that breaks out the adrenaline juice. I don't cram as much as I did when I was in College but I still have this notion that things will fall in to place no matter what. If it didn't happen for you, then it's not for you. At the same time I want some semblance of control. Like any walking contradiction, I'm neither here nor there; just somewhere in between. And it does not do well for an aching head. Anyhow, the adventure continues. Hold fast but learn when to let go. Because it's going to be a bumpy ride and sometimes the only way to fly is to jump from that diving board.

Happy 2012!

Go figure.

Asked Siri to send a message for me ,"it's ok I'm still on shift" and she recognizes it as ,"it's ok I'm still on sh*t" . Twice. Smart Aleck.

I Don't Get it

I Don't Get it.............

• when people spit gum in the urinals when the trash can is 5 meters away.




• when people cut your lane and try to overtake you but you're both at the same spot when you reach the stop light.




• how people who ride big SUVs still manage to throw garbage away in the streets from their vehicles; your SUV suddenly looks like a jeep.




• why people still insist on using plastic bags when there is already so much trash in the world.




• how people can stand other people cleaning up after them.




• why roads are so ugly despite all the taxes.




• why people still print their account summary after withdrawing money from the ATM when these can be checked online and they just throw it right away after (all that wasted paper!) - thanks voltaire.

• how stores can say that they are on sale when they are not.




• how GMA or the Arroyos are still able to sleep at night.
