After

Hum, I am working. Scratch that. I am supposed to be working. But I am not. I can't. I shan't.

But eventually I will.

I printed some letters, but I haven't mailed them. I sorted through files, but I haven't arranged them.

The only productive thing I did this morning was to switch on the wireless network accidentally. Bah.

Holidays!

All that hype for just one night. Hunh. In a few hours, Christmas is over, and I might just weep :/

Firstly, my prediction of not receiving any of those brightly wrapped packages came true. Okay, semi-true. I got a total of 3 gifts, specifically: undies, a necklace and a towel. Good haul this year! Seriously. Hey, at least I'm remembered.

The gifts I doled out were appreciated, which made me quite the happy Santa. Lance liked his Spiderman pillow and watch (I think). Remind me to pay for that watch, by the way. Justin had his John Cena shirt and Naruto figurine, Mikko his Bleach set. I loved those gifts myself, so I was pretty sure they would have a good reception.

Normally, Christmas would just mean food and gifts, but this year, we had...KARAOKE!! Yeah, thank God for Magic Sing.

By noon, standard singing fare were those songs whose notes are still inaccessible in the normal, human world. Big hit for me: singing Alone, original singer unknown, a Celine Dion revival. Midway through it, I swear I could feel my stomach muscles shaking. If there was ever a time that I sang like Steve Tyler of Aerosmith fame, this was IT. All for 50 bucks!

Anyway, this Magic Sing is a sneaky and cheating karaoke. It never sticks to 100 points, no matter how I scream. Feh, it doesn't dole out hundred g's on principle.

Big suprise-seroo. I haven't watched a single anime show during the Christmas break, unless you count the Full Metal Alchemist marathon last weekend. Must be the reason why I am so sleepy this week.

The 25th hasn't ended yet, but I am having hangovers. Brrr. Work awaits tomorrow, but I am lazy. If it weren't for my downloads, I shan't be going anymores. And yeah, my bonus (!!!); I have yet to receive it. Dang, dang, dang!

I have pictures by the way, but no way to upload them. My blasted memory card won't fit the reader slot, so I forced it into the laptop's reader, which was a bloody, stupid idea. I pushed the card all the way inside and behold, it got stuck. I shook and cursed to no avail. I got a nail file, and, poof! levered the card outside. Lesson: Never shove a card up a laptop when it won't fit. And keep a handy nail file! It's not just for hygiene!

Yeah, so, all in all, a good Christmas.

Can't wait for the New Year.

Ima go and eat dinner again. Meh is hungry.

On the Avatar Part 1

Am I the only one who's <<<<<3 Prince Zuko?? Teh prince is hawt.

I am not in the position to write anything else but the aforementioned statement. I got noodles for brains.

Will elaborate after Christmas season.

Gloomy

Yar. Despite the Christmas season, there's a definite drop in my spirits as December flies off. More accurately, I'm feeling execcesively bored this season; nothing to look forward to, really, with my friends abandoning me and stuff. Thank God for teh internet.

I finished my Christmas shopping; take note that I bought nothing for myself. Sigh. I am at an age where I do the giving rather than the receiving. I'm guessing that nobody's going to give me any pwesents this 25th. I curse the day I became an adult!

So yeah, I'm super bored. I don't even have the gusto to do my job. And to think I agreed to another 6 months here. I mean, the job's ok and all. Usually, I have to organize stuff and call people up. Then, there's research proposals and scary bosses. On the other hand, UNLIMITED internet connection. Hmmmm. Thanks to that, I have dloaded lots of nifty stuff online. On the other hand, the unlimited dloads were the main reason why the MAIN computer CRASHED. Dang. Now, I do stuff on the office laptop. Lovely, really, since I get to take this baby home and watch DVDs till the wee hours of dawn. Brrr. I am in a love/hate relationship with my job.

Yesterday, the office had a Christmas fellowship of sorts at Mang Inasal, courtesy of the gift tickets I wangled from the manager during my sponsorship-hunting days. Technically, them gift certs are for the competition on February 22, but the management did not seem to mind. We had bbq chicken, fried kangkong (read: kangkoooooong!!!) and sinigang laced with too much Aji-stuff. Talk was mostly machismo stuff. I tuned out early, since I was too sleepy (blame it on the Avatar marathon the night before). Breakfast today was fried chicken. I felt like throwing up.

I have this thing about myself. I think I am too timid, to the point that it's pathologic. Anyway, shan't elaborate on this one. I'll be musing on it during Christmas and New Year. New Year Resolution: Be BOSSY!!

Cheerios.

Winter 2008

Blurb shamelessly stolen from the AA forums :3

Winter preview 2008

I'm going for Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, the second season. I am only hoping that for this season, subs will come out regularly. Also, Mnemosyne. One look at the picture and trailer, and my interest is more than quipped.

I'm looking forward to a great season of anime this 2008. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

From scratch

Wow, it has been a while since I last posted. After browsing through my archives, the last post I had was posted way back college. 6 months is hardly way back, but it feels like I've been out of school for like forever.

Anyway, I'm pimping and polishing up this site again, starting today. I've arranged a few details, and I hope to add a few more. Given that I have internet connection during office hours, I just might be able to pull ressurecting this blog again.

To kick things off, a few updates:
1. I graduated already, last March 2007. Even though I ranted through my junior and senior years, I did graduate with Latin Honors (Cum Laude). I'm really happy about it.
2. I passed my nursing licensure exams last June 2007. I am now officially a nurse.
3. Though officially a nurse, I am not practicing yet. I am working as an administrative assistant of sorts in an NGO. I will continue doing so, until I am filthy rich!

Those are the only things of importance, I guess. Which goes to show, that I still have a pretty boring life.

Toodles.
