Abalos Is All About The Benjamins

Moderate greed? Hindi nako magtataka kung bakit natalo na natin ang Indonesia, at tayo na ang number one. Hehehe. Mas mauutak ang mga pulitiko natin. Magaling! *palakpakan*

$130 million. Taena parang ginawa tayong insurance ah. Buhay na apo ng apo ng apo mo nun.

Ginoong Lozada, salamat sa paglabas at pagtestigo ngunit ang pagnanakaw ay pagnanakaw, kaya...

Ay, nakakapikon. Tawagin n'yo man akong uto uto at hangal, hindi parin ako nawawalan ng pag asa. Sana ikaw rin. Kawawa naman ang Pilipinas kung hindi.

Just One Of Those Days...

EMO ALERT!!!

Can we cry and drink and smoke while getting a new haircut? Just wonderin'.

Tsk. Tsk. Boom!

I want to pull my hair out everytime people tell me that they see a spark between me and certain guys that I eventually end up liking (well, SOME of them). Believe me, I've gotten that reaction for the umpteenth time, from different groups of people, and for different guys and if I probably combine the "forces" of those so called sparks, I could probably provide light for a whole house for a couple of seconds. At sino ako sa inaakala nyo? Si Human Torch?


Spark?! Silaban ko kaya kayo nang makita nyo ang hinahanap nyong spark!


Pero pwede rin no? Kelan ko kaya mahahanap ang Crystal (sa lahat ng na-involve kay Human Torch, pinaka gusto ko powers nya) ko para pag nagsama kami, spontaneous combustion na?! Tapos, eternal flame! Nyahaha! Taena, bitin yung beer!


Naah, but seriously. They just probably see my innate ability to mingle / blend in with the Y carriers. And I'm more comfortable smelling a hint of bleaching agent in the air because again, I basically grew up in a testosterone dominated environment. There. So please, no more sparks.

Home Alone

What's more pathetic than being alone during the holidays, in your own house, while your whole clan's drinking, bingeing, and being merry... in beautiful Baguio (from Pagudpud to Baguio, actually) no less?! And unlike Kevin McCallister, I didn't wish for my family to disappear!




Better send me those fast food delivery numbers and flyers!

Hmmm. Check in kaya ako sa VC to try out the Matrix room? Bwahaha!



A piece of useless info I got from this link while searching for a Home Alone jpeg. Turns out the movie poster was a parody of Munch's The Scream! Coolness!

Patay Patay Sa Araw Ng Mga Patay

Charme, pasensya at salamat dahil lagi mong kailangang magbigay ng pep talk sa bawat unang araw ng "promotion" natin. Hahaha! At dahil dyan, sige, magpapapicture nako sayo. :P

Hay, sige try ko pa ng isang linggo.

Kasi naman, bigyan naman sana ako ng magagandang calls. Utang na loob!

I Want My Social Life Back!


On our way home, in my PJs. The bastards went to my house at 2am to pick me up while I was supposedly reviewing for my Physics exam the next day. I was kidnapped, brought somewhere in Diliman, then was offered free booze and munchies. Hell yeah. They brought me back home pie-eyed, happy, swearing, singing.


Punyeta. And now I can't even schedule a dinner date with my friends. I WANT MY SOCIAL LIFE BACK!


I'm down to my last few straws.

Love, Capt. Spaceout

I know you'll kill me for this, but... ugh.



I miss you Drew. You're one of the very few people who can tell if I'm faking my smiles. And I still smile whenever I see that F4 guy on the telly. And you always make sense. And I still think you should be a lawyer. And lawyers have a special place in my heart. And I swear I was only supposed to rest for 5 minutes back when we were doing our thesis, but the rhino's life was on the telly that's why I (unintentionally) doze off. He had a boring life. Ho-hum.


And I'm losing it, again.


And I'm not making sense, I know.

Inom tayo! I miss talking to you.

I Hate, I Love, I Hope.

I hate the fact that I can't go to La Union this weekend with my friends because I still have to work. Fuck. Just the thought of being frozen alive in an airconditioned room (think cryogenics), "alone" while my sun whore friends are basking in the sun and riding the waves makes me want to run all the way up the 8th floor screaming "Lord, why?!" while tearing my horse-tail-like hair out. Again, the thought bubble containing the words "What the hell have I gotten myself into?" pops out.

I love having breakfast in bus (coined after "breakfast in bed") and saying good night while the sun's still up. My friend waits up for me to get off from work then we go straight to Jollibee (eww, yeah I know), buy breakfast and eat during our bus ride home while I go on ranting about how fucking sleepy I was during my shift. I always enjoy moments like that wherein I get to talk to someone about how my day went after working for 8 frikkin hours. And yeah, how many people can say that they just had ice cream for breakfast?

Isse kreyyam por sahle ere.

I hope I can go out of town this weekend.

First Day Funk

I guess this'll be my own version. Okay. Feet hurt. Finally got an electronic ID that works! I think more than the training, that'll be the only thing that I'll look forward to everyday. Getting the chance to swipe my card to get in. Aylavet! Feet hurt. They gave us kits with another set of forms to fill out, a manual and a handbook. Double love. I love getting kits and filling out forms. Kaya suking suki ako nung mga islambuk nung gradeschool. What is your favorite color? Define love. Who is your crush? Ang pinaka panalong sagot sa tanong na "Describe yourself" ay "Judge me". At sa "What are your hobbies?" "MTM - many to mention". Lupet no? Yuck. Hahaha!

Feet hurt. Pantry food sucks. Yesss! An excuse to buy a cool lunchbox. Feet hurt. Got an orange, doodle free notebook, which I bet will be full of random thoughts and of course doodles by the end of my second training day. Feet hurt. Sucks to know that I'm the only one who lives up north. Waaay north. Feet hurt. Feels weird to realize that I'll be getting off / arriving at the same bus stops that I used to go to back in college. The only difference is, now I'd have to cross the street to go home. God bless the walkways. Feet hurt. Got a free spill proof coffee mug.


Feet hurt. Note to self, bring flip flops.


My dear fat ass, please cooperate. I need to complete my pre employment medical exam within the week. Additional note [to self], buy Dulcolax.

I'm officially part of the workforce. Now, show me where my taxes REALLY go.

Writer's Block

I guess I'd have to content myself in writing one liners or one paragraphed entries for a while. I have topics queued in my head but when I start writing, words seem to elude me.

It's like my head just throws in tons of information so fast that my brain can't keep up and my locomotive skills aren't that fast either that by the time I'm able to process a whole sentence in my head, I have just managed to write a couple of words and the whole thought just gets...lost.

Writer's block ka dyan. Kinakalawang lang utak mo!

Ang Aso Ko Ay Isang Dogfather

Minsan sa isang inuman session namin ng kuya ko at ng barkada nya ay biglang may nagsalita


"Pare, dog-father talaga yang kangaroo ninyo"


Hindi ko alam kung dahil sa kalasingan o dahil sobrang nakakatawa lang talaga pero tawa kami ng tawa nun. Onga pala, "kangaroo" ang tawag nila sa mga aso dahil mukha nga naman daw kangaroo ang mga ito. Pero ngayong hindi nako lasing, naisip ko na tama nga naman. Dog father talaga si Gardo o kahit na sinong aso na matinong inaalagaan ng kanilang mga "amo". (parang anlabo ata) Pano ko nasabi? Ganito kasi...

Ang malanding aso naming si Gardo ay kailangang hainan mo ng masarap na pagkain dahil kung hindi ay hindi nya ito kakainin at problema mo pa ang paglilinis ng kainan nya pag nangyari ito. Pag hindi mo lilinisan eh magkakaron kayo ng mga pesteng ipis, langaw at daga. May special diet pa sya dahil sabi nila, bawal pakainin ang aso ng mga pagkaing may vetsin dahil malalagas ang balahibo nito. Dahil bwakaw ang pamilya ko at minsan ay sapat lang ang pagkain sa bahay para saming lahat, nagkakaron ng mga panahon na wala nang natitira para sa aming alaga. Dapat ay bilhan pa namin sya ng mamahaling dog food na mas mahal pa sa kinakain namin. Mamahalin dahil hindi sya kumakain ng mga mumurahin lang. Malandi talaga. Kailangang bilhan din sya ng sarili nyang sabon dahil malalagas lang ang balahibo nya kung Tide ang ginamit sa pagpapaligo. Kailangang meron din syang sariling tuwalya dahil kung pinakawalan mo sya nang basa eh panibagong sakit ng ulo dahil magiging mas madumi sya kung magpapagulong gulong sya sa labas ng bahay na basa. Pagkatapos kumain ay masarap matulog, lalo na pagkatapos ng tanghalian kaya matutulog muna sya ng ilang oras na minsan ay nakataas ang apat na paa. Teorya nga namin, baka nananaginip pa sya dahil minsan ay gumagalaw at umuungol sya habang natutulog. Pagkagising ay maghahanap nanaman ng panibagong gagawin. At kadalasan ay ayaw naming makipaglaro at makipag kulitan kaya nababagot sya at lalayas muna ng bahay at makikipaglaro sa mga ka-berks nyang aso ng kapitbahay. Napag alaman kong doon sya tumatambay sa isawan sa may kanto at bukod sa pag aabang ng mga tira tirang mga parte ng manok, baka at baboy na hindi kinakain ng mga tambay ay tinatawag sya ng amoy ng nilulutong bituka, dugo at kung ano ano pang lamang loob. Sarap! Pag nagutom na at napagod sa pakikipag harutan ay saka lamang sya babalik sa bahay upang tignan kung tapos na kaming kumain at meron nang handang pagkain para sa kanya. At kadalasan ay kailangan mong bitawan ang kung anomang ginagawa mo para lamang buksan ang gate dahil dumating na sya, at kung hindi ay mabubwisit ka lang sa kakaungol nya sa labas ng bahay. At ito ang malupit, magkakalat sya ng kung anong bagay ang gusto nyang ikalat at ikaw ang taga linis pagkatapos. Jebs pa ang ipapalinis sayo pag sinuwerte ka. Buti nalang at layas ang aso namin at dun sya sa labas nagkakalat. Pagdating naman sa paglilinis ay kailangan pa syang buhatin para lang mawalisan ang kinahihigaan nya. Kung makikipagtigasan ka ay wala kang mapapala dahil hindi sya tatayo at iisnabin ka lang maliban na lang kung sisipain mo sya (at hindi kami naninipa ng aso).

Nakakatuwa din syang panoorin kapag lumalabas kami ng bahay na kasama sya. Malakas ang loob nyang awayin ang kung sino mang hayop na makita sa daan. Marahil ay iniisip nyang kung ano man ang mangyari ay nandyan kami para sa kanya kung sakali mang madehado sya. I got yo' back ika nga. Kakagatin namin ang kung sino mang asong kumagat sa kanya. Parang ganun. Raaar! Kaya tinatawanan lang sya ng handler nung gi-normous na itim na rottweiler kapag hinahamon nya ito (yung aso syempre). Ang kapal ng mukha ng hinayupak na Gardong yan na manghamon kahit na hanggang sa dede lang sya nung hinahamon nya. Buti nalang ay may kadena yung aso. Baka mas mabilis pakong tumakbo pauwi pag nagkataon.

Katulong ako ng aso ko. Aren't we all? (di ko alam sa tagalog). Ayus lang. Wala namang kapalit ang kabatuganan... ay katuwaan pala, ang katuwaang ibinibigay nya sa amin sa tuwing tuwang tuwa syang batiin ang sino mang dumarating sa bahay. Nakakatuwa ding inihahatid nya lahat ng taong umaalis hanggang sa traysikel at minsan pa nga ay nakikipag paligsahan sya sa pagtakbo. Oo, kalaban ang traysikel na sinasakyan ko. May isa pa ngang pagkakataong ilang beses tumigil yung sinasakyan ko nang makita nya kong lulan nito pauwi.

"Ah manong, dun pa po yung bahay ko"

"Eh mam yung aso po kasi baka masagasaan ko"

*dungaw*

"Ah aso ko po yan. Stuy, Gardo!"

Pinasakay ko nalang sa traysikel at sabay kami umuwi kaysa naman abutin kami ng isang taon kakahinto. Tinamaan nga naman ng...




* * * * *



Isang gabi ay nagpasama ako sa kapatid ko sa tindahan para magpaload. Sumama nanaman ang Gardo. Laking dismaya namin nang makitang sarado na ang tindahan. Kailangan kong makapag reply sa nagtext kaya kahit gabing gabi na ay naglakad kami ng naglakad para makahanap ng bukas na tindahan. Pauwi ay nakasalubong kami ng tatlong askal na wari ko'y magkakapatid dahil magkakamukha sila at lahat ay lumabas galing sa isang bahay. 3 to 1. Patay. Naramdaman din siguro ni Gardo ang naramdaman ko. Dehado ang aso ko pota. Unfair. Naisip ko na gaya ng mga Mafiosi, hindi rin teritoryo ni Gardo ang lugar na yon kaya walang reresbak pag nagkataon. At tumapak sya sa ibang teritoryo ng walang paalam kaya lagot talaga sya. Nagsimulang magtahulan ang tatlong aso. Tahimik lang si Gardo na naglalakad at nagpapanggap na wala syang nakita at siguro ay para narin sabihin sa tatlo na makikiraan lang sya at wala syang balak makipag away. Katulad ng aso ko, mayayabang din ang tatlo kaya't dahan dahan nilang kinorner si Gardo sa damuhan. Sumisigaw na si Gardo at para bang umiiyak. Wala naman kaming magawa ng aking kapatid kundi ang sigawan lang ang tatlo para matakot at lumayo. Kung pwede ko lang buhatin ang aso ko at tumakbo pauwi ay ginawa ko na. Kaso baka hindi pako nakakalapit ay kinuyog nako nung mga yun. Aspalto pa naman at napakalinis ng daan sa amin kaya wala akong mapulot na bato. Hindi narin ako nagtangkang magpulot ng kung ano pa man dahil baka natuyong jebs ng aso pa ang mapulot ko dahil madilim. Buti narin siguro yun dahil kung nagkataon ay baka kami naman ang pagbuntunan. Naiiyak nako at pinagagalitan ko ang aking kapatid para tulungan akong sigawan ang mga aso para layuan na si Gardo. Matapos ang ilang sandali ay nagpasya si Gardo na maglakad ng paunti unti habang sinusundan sya nung mga hinayupak habang galit na galit na tumatahol. Pagdaan ng ilang bahay, salamat sa dyos at tumigil sila ng kakalakad at tuluyan nang nilubayan ang aso ko. Buti nalang.


Tangina. Hanggang dyan lang ang abot ng ihi nyo no? Belat.


Mayabang nako ngayon at nakuha ko na mag-belat dahil wala na kami sa teritoryo nila. Pero pucha.

Grabe ang naramdaman kong kaba nun. Isang babala. Wag lang silang magkamaling pumunta sa mga lugar na inihian namin ng aso ko kung ayaw nilang maging pulutan. Hmph.

Matitikman nila ang bangis ni Don Gardo Corleone. Raaaaaaaaaffff!

I Smell Something Fishy

Upon waking up, I went straight to the kitchen and saw the fish. Hehehe. Then I volunteered to clean 'em.

Got the fish and they told me to remove the scales, remove the innards and basically remove everything that I don't see when I eat 'em.


Remove everything that I don't see when I eat fish, or every part that I think isn't edible. Noted.


Oh this is going to be fun. First, removing the scales. Easy. I used to watch my lola do it when I was a kid. So I did. The scales were all over the sink and the walls after the first fish was cleaned. Oh I'm sooo dead. Then comes the icky part. Removing the guts.


"Oh man, that's gross."

"What the fuck is this?!"

"Aw fishy you stiiink!"


Aw that fish stank like hell. While I was "scaling" the fish, one of the fucking scales fucking bounced off my fucking lip while I was griping about how fucking icky it felt and smelt. That shut me fucking mouth off. Takte baka yung susunod, tumalsik na sa loob ng bunganga ko. Mahirap na.

I was already singing while I was cleaning my second fishy. Took me an hour to clean 3 pieces. Twas fun.


"Ay may itlog! Galeng!"


Was able to clean two mommy fish-ies.


*cut to the dining table after the fish was cleaned and cooked*


"O asan na yung itlog?!"

"Ah kinakain ba yun?"

*they all laughed*


The egg looked gross, man. I didn't know people even eat them. Oh yeah! Caviar! Feeling caviar! Hahaha.

Even if I wore two pieces of plastic on both hands while I was de-gutting / de-egging the damn things, I swear I can still smell the fish on my hands till dinner time. Stank like hell. Ugh.

Who Wants To Drink?

It's bad enough that I won't be able to exercise my right tomorrow, I just remembered I also won't be able to drink.

I have stash in my room for the nights when counting sheeps just won't cut it. Right people [who have been to my room]? Lemme hear you say ho!

But...

This is a "fuck-you-world / I'm invisible" moment. I just want to buy booze, smoke emo cigs, sit on the grass and think. Or, just pick a spot and stare. Well, with some luck, I'd also be able to see nice asses kicking balls *grins*. I can't do that inside my room now can I?

Gah. I badly want to drink. Fuck the liquor ban. Tsk.



Hmmm... I'll be drinking as soon as the ban's lifted. Wanna come with?

Diffused Responsibility

Posted Thursday, 22 December 2005


I was busy for the past two weeks but I was still able to watch MTV Whatever Things. For the record I don't really like the show. I was just surfing the channels and for some reason, I stopped to take a look at what they had in store this week. Apparently they had a contest wherein the viewers were to suggest things that they want the hosts to do. A certain viewer suggested that two of them would go in a convenience store. One would pretend to be a shoplifter and the other would pretend to be the cashier. So they did it, I didn't think it was funny but something in it caught my attention.

The "customer" was asking for something so the man behind the cash register had to bend over to look for whatever it is that the customer asked for. While he was doing this, the customer was putting the groceries inside her pockets and her jacket. Of course the other customers were able to see what she was doing. The alarming thing is that on all the instances that they did that act, people were just either smiling and shaking their heads or gaping with their eyes popping out. They didn't even bother to inform the "cashier" that he's being robbed. Either they just didn't care or they didn't want to get into trouble. Or maybe it's just a case of diffused responsibility.

In our psychology class, we learned that people have a tendency to ignore reacting to a certain situation hoping that someone would just come up, be a hero and save the day. In this case, since there are other customers in the convenience store, they were expecting the other people to come forward, take action, and have the balls to inform the poor cashier that he's being robbed. Sadly, the same thing is happening to our country.


It's funny how a stupid show can make you realize and see things that other people brush aside.


I admit that I am one of those people who can see the flaws but ignores them hoping that other people would step up and make everything alright. Maybe it's because I didn't want to get caught up in that whole political thingy that old people, or some people my age, are in. Sad to say I am one of those gaping customers inside the convenience store.

This is the reason why I have so much respect for people like Sir Pat, Sir Darwin and even Osh. I admire them for being able to see the flaws, and acting on it at the same time. It's because of people like them that our country, eventhough run by corrupt officials, still manages *barely* to survive. Some people just see and know that something's wrong but just rants and raves about it. But there are people like them who take a stand and act. Hats off to you and people like you.

On Making Plans

One of the things I hate when making plans is the disappointment I get when it doesn't come true.

On planning a vacation. Closer vacation plans tend to materialize compared to more distant plans. The more time I spend in planning an outing, the greater the possibility that it won't happen.

On visualizing something. What's weird about me is that once I formed something in my head, 80% of the time it won't come out the way I imagined it. Sometimes, not even close.

On having long term / short term goals. When I realized I wasn't doing anything uh, productive (for lack of a better word), I did try to plan. Like in doing business plans I did try to set a goal, formulated strategies and planned on certain steps in order for me to attain them but now, eck. Let's just say that my plans would have to take a back seat so that I can perform certain responsibilities for my family.

Either my hopes are so high I was doomed to disappointment or I just wasn't doing my darndest best. I should just stop blaming everything and blame it all on me. Or maybe I'm just not that good enough.

Fate has it's own special way of making me realize how useless I've become.

Sorry sabog yung post. Kalat utak ko ngayon eh.

Guys. Tsk. Tsk.

Before I got home from school I had the chance to have another bull session with some of the guys from school. Rhoda, Pach, Aldrin and Cube were there (Ria and Chester were in Timezone the whole time playing Drum Mania and Guitar Freaks) but the rest were first time "sessionistas". They had one bull session last Saturday but I went home early so they just summarized what they talked about. Tonight's topic: Relationships.

I just got pissed when the guys confirmed the stuff that I don't understand about men.

  • How I hated that guys tend to be visual and how girls tend to be emotional. Go to Glorietta or any mall for that matter and try to "people watch" and observe the couples. You'd mostly see hot chicks with not-so-hot guys than hot guys with not-so-hot chicks.


  • How they'd tend to be uber close and sweety-sweety with a girl friend then suddenly a new girl comes along, puts old girl on standby, pursues new girl then old girl will just realize that guy just enjoys old girl's company.


Ugh! And all the while I thought I knew how guys think.

Another irritating thought. Do I need to be sexy, be all pretty and shit just for guys to start coming up to me and even try to know me better and realize that hey, I'd want her to be my girlfriend. Ugh, men.
