one DAPSILOG please!!!

Flattery (n) - a flattering compliment or speech; praise in excess, or beyond what is merited.

Usage: Men deal in compliments from a desire to please; they use flattery either from undue admiration, or a wish to gratify vanity; they practice adulation from sordid motives, and with a mingled spirit of falsehood and hypocrisy. Compliment may be a sincere expression of due respect and esteem, or it may be unmeaning; flattery is apt to become gross; adulation is always servile, and usually fulsome.

2 weeks ago, i was asked to record the voice prompt spiel, the scripts that callers will hear when they call us. its not an easy thing because your throat will exert lots of effort vocal stretching, and to add stress in achieving a specific tone, accent and perfect delivery. splendid. my neck got stiff considering that i only take 2 hours on-and-off voice recording, compared to 8 hours of talking, 5 days a week. why me?

Flirting (n) - To make amorous advances without serious intentions.

Usage: y: wanna try different work, y'know.
x: pano yan, iwan mo na ko nyan
y: ganun talaga, thats part of moving on :))
x: haha
x: ni wala pa nga tayong naumpisahan moving on na kaagad? :))
x: anu landline number mo?
y: wala kame nun, pinatanggal na namen
x: bakit?
y: kase may lagengn nanloloko samen, di kame pinapatulog hehe besides may cel na naman, so di na kame nagpakabet
x: ganun...sayang naman..

i blame it to friendster, in which a very common rapport is this line: may friendster account ka ba? and i respond, yes..and followed by why, how come, etc.

they say na mas sumasarap ang pagkaen lalo na pag sa picture pa lang eh panalo na. i dont find this picture amusing, as well as my appetite for the boodle that we ordered from Seafood Island in Libis. the last time na nakakaen ako sa restaurant na to in Cubao, hinde ako pinatulog ng baked oyster sa sobrang sarap..so i thought of inviting my batchmate to try here in Libis. i may not drool over since what we have is boodle and not the baked oyster i am after, pero pwede na rin, except siguro sa sunog na sisig na serve sa amen.

this pic was taken after we watched the movie in Gateway, ung movie ni Brendan Frasier na "Journey to the center of the Earth" actually pati trailer diko pa nachecheck so its my first time to watch a movie, na walang ka ide-idea what to see. in other words, nagpadala kame sa judgement ng kasama kong nakacheck out ng trailer nito haahha.

so ayun nga we watched that, ok naman ung storyline, pinaghalong comedy, adventure/fantasy. ok din ung effects, it reminded me of Jurassic Park, dahil dun sa dinosaur hehhe. backtrack lang ng konti, before the movie medyo nagarcade pa kame sa timezone, naalala ko tuloy ung times namen ni sesh na nagaaksaya ng pera sa kakalaro harharhar. this time its a bit different, para kaseng wala ako sa mood maglaro or magvideoke. even the moviewatching is not that exciting, parang may kulang...

ahh baka kulang sa tulog. (may ganun!?!)

I got you covered...WFT! no one's covering for me. i dont need it, cuz im not hiding from anybody. i hate your statement, i hate your guts, and what i really hate about you is whenever you proclaim yourself to be the only brainy person here. i call it smart-ass.

I got you covered ka dyan! mukha mo!

kapag naiisip kong ang pagcocommute sa fx na supposedly ay airconditioned, and everyone is expected to feel comfortable, gusto kong magtayo ng union at magreklamo. kung gagayahin ko ang mmda sa panghihimasok sa batas trapiko, abah makakagawa na pala ako ng Do's and Dont's pagdating sa pagsakay sa FX.

- u know ur body type. small, medium, large ang sizes..wag ka ng tumawad na may semi-medium o semi-large. if ure big enough para maupo sa middle seat, wag ka ng sumiksik pa. tapos titingnan mo nang masama yung kaawa awa mong katabi na namimilipit sa pag ipit ng kanyang mga binti, magkasya ka lamang. come on, give them a break.

- speaking of middleseat, siguro dito lang sa pinas yung ginagawang "apatan" yun, ok fine, apat na kung apat, pero naman wag kang uupo na para kang nakaupo sa sala, kung ayaw mong mapaaway. again, if u think that somthing between ur legs ay maiipit, u might as well take the back seat. dont be slouchy.

- kung inaantok ka, magpasensya ka. wag mong hihigaan ung katabi mo, dahil hindi un kasama sa bayad. please, dont forget maligo nakakahiya sa katabi mo.

yan muna for now, sige chao!

im again back to the world full of complexities. i am not enjoying work anymore, it is becoming a pain in my ass. i am hopeful i can manage my time more. it felt like ive added 10 years to my actual age. darn.

across the street is a not-so-old-lady, probably at around 50 na, madungis, wlang kilala sa paligid, nagsasalita sa kanyang sarili and crazy thoughts come into my mind. will i be like her when i reach her age?  what if she used to blog before and make soliloquiy as a form of expression and not a disturbance? what if she is a mom who used to take care of her kids, beaten up by her lazy man? what if she had experienced being rejected, manipulated and physically abused by the drunkards on the street? where are those people who promise to take care of her when she is old?

i am now afraid reaching 50 after that contemplation. matagal pa bago ko ma reach ung age na un and that scares me more as i might experienced worst than that. naisip ko tuloy what is that lady thinking? she has her own world where she can be truly happy even for a moment? is losing her mind a better option than her commiting suicide? no one knows.

i remember an incident that happened recently while i was at the corner of the street waiting for a ride going to work. i was close to the spot when i heard someone talking asking San ka?! he happens to ride a motorcycle, slow enough for me to see his face, even stop a bit and see him looking at me. i dont know him so i simply look away from him. a mom together with her 9-year old kid, seems talking to that bastard and asked me.

Lady: miss, kakilala mo ba yun? tinatanong ka kung saan ka daw dadaan eh.
Me: hinde ko ho kilala un.
Lady: ah ganun ba, akala ko asawa mo kase kung magtanong akala mo kilalang kilala ka.
Me: kung asawa ko ho yun, hinde ako tatanungin nun dahil alam nya kung saan ako pupunta.

it freaked me out for 5 minutes, wondering if that stranger will go back to that same spot. nagmamadali akong makasakay to get away from that corner. i was thinking how often is he following me? how did he choose people, is that randomly? what is he after a free lift? for what? why he did not ask the mom and the kid if his intention is to just help other ppl?

wtf!?!

id like to think that philippines is still a safe country to live in. id like to believe that in our small town, i wont encounter those type of ppl, but i did, twice already. id like to hope that this thing wont happen again. id like to learn martial arts to protect myself, anyone care to teach me?

ito na siguro ang season ng American Idol where i hoped that both of them win, first time in the history yun kung sakaling mag tie ang contestants most specially in a fan-based show. i like the two davids, cuz of their different approach in singing. one is a solid rocker while the other is the opposite. as they have said, there can only be one winner..and thats David Cook. he has been a complete package for the entire season, got lots of confidence, powerful voice, good looks and a wide variety of fans.

right now im eating a tonkatsu meal from tokyo tokyo which costs me PHP145. sa amount na to kung titingnan ko parang maliit lang, pero inisip kong icompute how much i spend versus how much i save. sabe nga nila the real formula to save money is: Earnings - Savings = Expenses

ive realized, that after all this time, eh ive been practicing the opposite of the above formula thats why i dont have much saving. kaya naisip kong mag operation SAKTO. this means i need to have a specific amount for my everyday allowance. lets say i will target to have PHP200, kasama na dun ang pamasahe at baon, so in ten days i will only spend 2k, and i will be able to save the rest sa salary. siguro nga im not interested in computations kaya ang tagal kong di chinicheck ang expenses ko. in that case, either malimit na lang siguro akong makakakain ng mahal na combo meals (combo nga eh, baket mahal...ahh mahal para sayo), mas nanaisin ko pa sigurong magbaon na lang para mas safe at mas matipid ko pa ung daily allowance ko.

!!! what about if i compute my extra savings from my daily allowance of PHP200?? teka, parang ang layo na ata ng pinapangarap ko, id better set my accounts right. promise by monday, ill implement that operation, ill try it for a month and see what will happen. (kaya ko to!)
