Tell her you think she's cool.

Let her fall asleep in your arms.
Call her.
Call her back if she calls you.
Sing to her,no matter how bad you are.
Carve your names into a tree.

My Life in a Quickie:

*Death of Pope John Paul II

*Beach outing I missed last weekend,done the cheapest way to spend a Saturday through bonding with some of my batchmates from work (and scoring a free lunch along the way) and exercising my mind thru word games online...

* One place in my mind right now.....Shanghai, China.........(partly dreading,partly hoping, partly scared)

* Still confused about HIM...conflicting emotions....hate him most of the time but happy to see him, gave him the silent treatment, but can't stand to see him down and sad.... I'm tired of hoping that something can come out good between the two of us.So I just let it all go.....

*Moved to a new abode (which is kinda neat..the new house I mean!)

* Going broke...(longing for payday again!)

* Noticed that Im gaining weight, seriously considering enrolling in a gym, but mom says, why not go to a dermatologist to improve skin... have to make up my mind....for the meantime, restrain from overeating....

* Sitting in the back is not that fun anymore! :(

*A dad that is still missing in action

*A phone bill that amounted to 2,700 php because of a confusion about that 10/min call....note: make sure you have NDD before using...

*Beginning to like CSI and Queer Eye for the Straight Guy more and more....(love the FAb 5!)

*Almost forgot...American Idol too.....LOve Constantine Maroulis!

*Slowly isolating myslef from office society....(wanting to be alone)

* Kind of staring into space... this past few days...have this wound near the bridge of my nose......

*Reading an online version of John Grisham's The Last Juror which so far is entertaining

*Received this touching message from Jagurl, an officemate of mine. I seriously want to cry as i read her message.

*Spent the Saturday hanging out with my office buddies at Kat Cordova's house, playing old fashioned games like PANTS,Word Factory, english and tagalog versions where Astrobabe won the tagalog game,hands down! :), planned diabolical things to be done to a certain sup who made a bitchy scene about internet access on the floor, planned another outing, this time at Corregidor on April 30 (hope this will push through!).

Well, that was all that happened to me during the past week. Nothing special really. I'll just close this entry with this song by Hale.....I really liked it the first time I heard it, kinda striked a chord inside me, (?) and it was unpopular back then....but right now, everyone seems to be singing it, so there...............

Broken Sonnet

And now i concede
On the night of this fifteenth
song Of melancholy, of melancholy
And in this next line Ill say it all over again
That i love you, i love you
I dont care what they say I dont care what they do cause tonight ill leave my fears behind cause tonight ill be right at your side
Lie down right next to me Lie down right next to me
And i will never let go Will never let go
The clock on the tv says 8:39 pm Its the same, its the same
And in this next line Ill say it all over again
That i love you, i love you
I don't care what they sayI dont care what they do, cause tonight i’ll leave my fears behind cause tonight ill be right at your side
Lie down right next to me Lie down right next to me
And i will never let go Will never let go
Ill leave my fears behind cause tonight ill be right at your side.
Lie down right next to meLie down right next to me
And i will never let goWill never let go
But still i see the tears from your eyes
Maybe i am just not the one for you

Just Rambling

It's another day at work for me. Even it's Holy Week, we have work.Yippee, double pay, more money! So far, no calls because of the fact that I am just taking calls for State Farm. Of course, it's great because I have no calls. The most calls I get in day is maybe 20 and those are just CS calls that were transferred to me. All around me, people are busy taking calls and that leaves me just writing this entry. We have a new seating plan and my new work station is not the best place to access the net. I kind of miss my old workstation way at the back of the floor where I can surf the net to pass the time. Doing nothing is great, sure. But I do notice that there are consequences for this privilege that I am now enjoying. For one thing, I am about to be slapped a verbal for my QA scores. It's not really that I totally forgot how to take calls, I still get a 100 grade for my sessions, but unfortunately, I am already failing some of my QA sessions. It's just one session,yes, but oh boy, if I fail, I do FAIL.


Like my last week's session, I got an all time grade of..... ta-dah, 65! I felt I've gone numb when I saw my score. What the hell! That's one price I have to pay for having few calls. More chances for your QA analyst to get those calls that you made blunders with. I just learned that I am about to be on a verbal warning stage just this Monday. I could not care less anymore, but inside, I was already on a bad mood. Verbal...for QA...I have been on this account for what, more than a year, almost two....and I am the one who'll be slapped with a verbal for QA? For failing just what? 3 sessions of QA? That's a bit subjective. I really don't know whether I would laugh or cry. Try cry? I felt that I must be a retard taking those calls. Whatever! I really don't care anymore. Failing QA and a future verbal warning is one thing, the comments that you hear from your colleagues can be another. Sure, its ok for the first time that I am hearing those jokes of "Wow, sarap ng buhay ni MCR, walang calls!", or "Double pay walang ginagawa." I even laugh and joke along with them. Drats, just a moment ago, I was flagged by my sup again. It's 11:30 and I still haven't taken my first break. Duh...sorry, did not notice the time as I am pre-occupied with my thoughts. With my rambling thoughts. Anyway, I am getting a bit annoyed with the comments lately. Maybe, I am just in a bad mood today. I think I want to be isolated for now.


Thoughts of resigning are fleeting in my mind again. I really feel that I am going nowwhere at this job. The other day I saw a schoolmates's picture at Friendster. She is actually a part of the cabin crew at Saudia Airlines. I was really envious because she posted the pictures showing her at some of the places I longed to see, like Egypt and London. If she's been there, then Paris and Rome are not far away. Sigh! I really just want to pursue my dream of travelling. I see travelling right now as a form of escape for me. You're constantly moving and at the same time discovering and learning. I really want to while I am still at my prime. Sigh! That would be THE DREAM!


Feeling weird and irritated. Would someone find the time to listen? Made the first step in restoring my faith. Surrendered my angst, my expectations, my fears, my hurts and my anxieties to the LOrd. This is my reflection for the Holy Week.

Love... in the form of Chess!

Check.......

Unexpectedly you came. Indifferent and clueless but you had the aura of complexity. I didn’t bother to recognize the beauty that was innate in you for it was just one of those senseless conversations for me. We were both minding our own pointless existence.
As the witty exchange of words drew us together, it suddenly occurred to me that this was different. You were different. I instantly noticed how amazingly smart you were. That and more.
I was the black pawn. You were the white knight. We were always on the same board but we never had our squares aligned. While I was busy protecting, shielding my own realm, you were having your own share of victorious moments. I took my steps one square at a time, constantly being aware of the threat that haunted me for years. Your valor radiated from within while your horse galloped. Your mere presence was too overwhelming for me not to notice.You were my metaphor.Your vagueness was intriguing me.For some strange reason it was as if I understood every crap you’ve been telling me. I just refused to acknowledge the fact that they were affecting me this much. I was trying desperately hard to resist being dragged any further into this but the scent of paranoia that once lingered in my whole being seemed to have faded.It had its toll.You had me.
We both knew that we could not justify the mediocrity of it all.

I was confused that’s why I just had to draw the line. I didn’t want to hold on to something that was not even there. You assured me that it was there, constantly hovering over my open palm. Somehow I just couldn’t grasp it. Maybe because I was just trying hard to get a grip of it for I feared that it might go away. I realized that I wasn’t letting it have a chance to calmly rest on my palm. I know you were just taking your time. You’ve been doing that from the start. You would never know how much I appreciated you for that. You were just probably as scared as I was. Not even half I bet, for now you have everything to lose.I’m nearing the end of the chessboard. Soon I’ll be transformed into a queen. I don’t know how to rule. This whole sense of sovereignty and royalty is far too profound for me to comprehend.Give me reasons to trust you.Tell me you’ll guard me with all your heart.Tell me you’ll erase the fear that I’ve been having of falling in love.Assure me that you’re the one I’ve been longing for and I’ll forever be yours.
Check. Your move…

******************

Pretty moving right? I came across this article while I was surfing the net to look for worthy websites with interesting feeds. I was impressed how the author related his, let me say, his lovelife to a game of chess. Pure genius (can I really relate?). My hand salutes whoever wrote this one. :)

Weekend.......I love it!
