i actually remember when ning was dead serious about giving out a memo for 'watching movies at work'..i am proud to say, that this malpractice started with moi-zee senior!- ah! but wait..who's watching now huh? huh? thought so!!

i feel like the week's passing by so slowly.. =/ can it please be saturday night already? pleeeease? =) yey! juffy's house..haha..i'd love to see what things can happen there ;)

BOWLING my friends will happen this TUESDAY NIGHT..you better be there! all of you! PINKS, GREENS (WOOHOO!) and BLACKS!


*this wouldn't be me if i didn't dis anything/1 , so here it is: 'It's A Guy Thing' on studio 23..pls try to see it..i flipped the channel just now..(clapping! sarcastically) bravo! it's-just-i'm-at-a-loss...pls. watch it

*'So what does this mean?', 'It means you have a choice, you have a choice to make..' aaaarrrggghhh! such an idiotic addiction (frickin piece of poop!)

entourage is on..haven't been watching any of it lately..just came from a sumptuous dinner at burgoo..ugh! feels like i ate for 5 days tonight..shit! i had halo-halo today! darn it...if only i could pay someone to work-out for me i'd be so slammin' right now-yeah right!

Jaja!! i'm so proud of you woman! "Endframe Video Project"=they're at Powerplant now, not sure til when though...it's all about video art--several artists had their own vids to show..interesting poop (jp says to lessen the cussing because it's b a d)! oh! bea camacho has a video on display too! crocheting herself in a loop of red red very red yarn-11 hours!! wow!

oh! another thing..was supposed to catch "maximo" today at gateway (me&gauxie on a date) but midday the movie people decided to take it out and switch it to "talladega nights"..i say boo! I really really need to see maximo, it's not even funny.

**frickin orlando bloom's on oprah.. okay, there's something wrong when a guy's this HOT! it's just not right..his accent..ouch! =) i think i'm gonna pop in 'elizabethtown' right now**

i'm sitting in front of my tv, watching Collateral and reading about Scarlett Johannson..she's hot..what can i say, she really is..going back, i'm watching this movie, but i can't seem to get my mind off popping in something else to watch...i wish this movie was frickin subtitled..bleh..bleh..

shit..i forgot A Lot Like Love was showing on star movies at 9..freak-o..
i don't looove ashton, i actually don't like him either, but he's..amusing to watch..or maybe it's really just this movie..it's easy to watch..plus, who wouldn't want that i'll-be-there-for-you-serenading-hottie outside your apartment door.. =.) amanda peet..she's cool.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

just got home from work and dinner..that bellini's has some good italian grub ;)

current song playing: 32 flavors (song i wish i wrote)

question in my mind: if today were the last day i had on earth, how would i want to spend it? ...



before i forget...THOU ROYAL PERKINESS..you have to believe me when i say i love you (to the depths of my heart) but there is something seriously seriously wrong with you...my dear friend..i gotta break it you now--you are a clear candidate for tourettes..verbal tics are the most common indicators of this--which you obviously HAVE BEEN HAVING THESE PAST FEW FREAKIN WEEKS(with me as your pitiful victim-i forgive you for your recent slurs--one day revenge will be mine..AH! AH! AH! AH! AH!!)!!!(it is not funny..NOT funny) going back, you should get yourself cured...

to those of us that are bored! =)

I just took a movie quiz at Flixster.com. If you come take it too we can see if we like the same movies.

there's about 10 things i can name why i think i can be nasty [sometimes]

1. When entering a mall, by the clear glass doors (usually there's 2), you'd usually see 1 door open (where everyone seems to be pushing each other), then there's the other 'closed' one..but it's not really closed, it's just that nobody wants to swing it open--this is where I- push my way thru the crowd(shoving themselves towards the other door) and push open the other door with this 'HE-LLO! OTHER DOOR CAN OPEN!' face on and i just walk away [insert grin here]
2. While walking, and people just come and out of nowhere block my way, i stop, give them the look and say 'ExCUSE you!'
3. When there's a queue of some sort and im asked to move up, i normally don't. i smile, ignore them like i was deaf and still keep my distance from the person in front of me (issues w/ personal space)
4. When i order fastfood and they ask "ma'am take-out po?" i smile, look at them and say "yup, to-go please"..of course after this, they ask you 1 more time..but i just love saying it till they get me
5. When i'm on the mrt sitting down and someone wants to squish themselves in right beside me, i don't move at all..c'mon, first come first serve (unless of course it's an old lady/man or something like that)
6. When a guy gets introduced to me and he insists on "You know what? You look sooo familiar..i've seen you..i think i've met you...you really look familiar..." i just smile, nod my head a little, roll my tongue in my mouth and say "Uhh..YEAH."
7. When it is very evident that i am pissed and someone asks me if i'm 'okay', i usually roll my eyes, give them a blank stare and go back to what i was doing [i love it!! love it!!] --[for this # i would like to thank jp--w/out whom, this # might not have been possible]
8. When girls in the restroom crowd in front of the sinks, just gossiping, i say 'excuse me.' -in a brash kinda way (this is, of course, when they stare at me--and i'm all like "what? i just wanna wash my hands man!"-in my head of course
9. When i'm at work and i answer the phone, saying the name of the company, then the person on the other line asks if you ARE that company..dude, i just wanna go "Ahh..YEAH! that's what i said."
10. ..i can't really think about a 10th reason, but i think i've made it clear that i can be nasty (sometimes)


on a way way lighter note:

this is for my peeps over at BUB! ;)
..and yes..you may make fun of me after seeing this.


[CLICK on me]

I just remembered that exactly 5 years ago today i was in new york for a contest i joined..not too many people know this but i did join an mtv contest when i was in college..probably out of sheer boredom--or just to prove to myself that my tv/video prod classes were paying off..i shot it w/ a friend of course..whole thing was for me to play 'eminem' in his 'stan' video..i had to prove-thru my rapping prowess-that they (mtv) had to choose me to send to ny for the vma's..i did good in that video..i believe my performance was impeccable, seriously..so i really don't know why i lost..a good friend won though..he took me w/ him to new york..and so there..5 years ago today..

oh..i watched 'Asphalt' last night, surprisingly, not alone..i lured 2 of my friends into watching by saying i got the tickets covered, "I got it, I got it" ;) cheap-ass tickets at that (P50)..i liked the fact that cynthia alexander was helping me get through the movie's highs and lows..it was good, it was really good..too bad pearly! nextym..

hit capones last night..overtones+urbandub..nothing better than good music to finish the night off.

>i sometimes get this feeling of wanting something to happen..big or small, doesn't matter..i just need something to happen to kinda help me 'snap out of it'..i need this 'snapping out'.. right about now would be good =) [shit..i suddenly craved for some lightly toasted spam, sunny side ups and warm, very white rice] spam jam!! come back!! come back!! (mocking *kate winslet*)

stayed up late again just watching grey's anatomy (so addicting, i can never get tired of it..)

>"why do i keep on hitting myself with a hammer? coz it feels so damn good when i stop"
- grey's anatomy


i know this is so bad, but im actually in class, letting my students watch this documentary- "Born into Brothels"..hbo should come up with more of these so i could have more days of just sitting in class yawning away til it's time to let them go (7:30am-12:00pm class man! you try getting up at freakin 6am when you've barely slept and can't get Dr. Sheppard out of your damn head!!)
coffee this morning did nothing for me..my mind's not even half here..i pitty my students..i'm even sad they got me this term! haha! if they only knew i was the laziest ass professor on the planet..but actually when i think about it..i think i would like myself if i were a student(no, seriously)>im the only professor who takes them on 'outside activities'..for a photography class, i take them to even watch movies--yeah, i think i've filled them up w/ reaction papers this term--thanks to Cinemalaya!..pictures..motion pictures..same shit sherlock..
i think the students pay more attention this way though, bringing them out, bringing videos/films in..they're just so damn quiet this way..i loooove it!
hey, when you're as half-wake as i am all the time (im not a morning person--i usually get around by noon time-w/c is when my 1st class ends-they are so lucky!), you'd appreciate all the talking heads in the background just shutting up and looking at the screen..shit..i just had a flashback of Sir Doy Del Mundo's class..i had this light pen in hand, much to the amazement of my classmates(i was always wiggling it around like i was really writing on my pad)..yeah right! how much can you write about the filipino classics with eddie garcia/fernando poe jr breaking out into song and dance (i love that shit! haha!)
on a more serious note though, i was talking to this art director friend of mine one time about 'teaching' in general..we got to thinking that it's really up to us to sort of revolutionize the way these kids grow-up (eeewww..sound so old) "Captain!, my captain!"..we have to somehow help them foster whatever talents they've got..half of my students, for instance-are into graphic arts (usually started out doodling away at the back of their notebooks in highschool), if there were nobody out there to even nudge them (i bet their parents tell them there is no career in drawing you crazy boy! crazy girl!) it could be their only passion though, so it's best not to kill it..put it to good use instead..have them do graffiti all over the streets of manila (haha!we gotta paint over those mmda 'artworks' along edsa man)
oh well..docu's done..gotta go back to class =/

F I N A L L Y! (it's about time right?) okay, so i have put my dear diary to rest tonight..a very solemn moment if i may say..it's just so sad..parting with it just breaks my heart (a little bit)..i've held a pen and a diary in my hand for so long, this just seems so much more impersonal to me..i'm quite accustomed to my cup of coffee (to help me sleep) while scribbling down what had just happened to me the whole day...let's see if i get the hang of this...

>question..why did i decide to start my journal today?
answer: this passed month, people around me have brought to my attention, that i 'need' (yes, stress on the need) to go and 1)mingle 2)be approachable 3)meet new people (as a result of course of both 1&2)..question i ask myself is this> "do i look sad? no. am i sad? no." but this is the question people seem to ask> how old are you again? single? =/ (it's like an ugly wart you gotta hide)
so what now? what now? >i am determined to prove people (including my mom) wrong.. i will 1)mingle 2)be (more) approachable and no.3 will surely follow =)
i always promise myself to have fun..so now, i guess i'll promise to have more.

>this is me, good to be here ;)
