Lethargic and Annoyed.

Since Friday, my body has been absorbing alcohol. I have tequila, vodka and beer streaming in my veins. As I have myself waking up at 3pm today, I agreed on having Cup Noodles and a liter of Minute Maid coz i really do not have the energy to type, lalo na of thinking what to cook.

Whats worse... is the tagalized version of Twilight.

Wouldnt be twilight the english version of Lobo? whatever that is. Ive heard its a love story between a werewolf and a human being. tama nga ba ako? baligtad nga lang. yung werewolf yung babae.

So whats the difference of making us see the same story everyone has already seen or read? Ah. siguro it caters the people who dont fully understand English. Sana lang hindi nila gawing tagalog ang bagong buwan, eklips (forgive me for that, i tried googling the tagalog word for eclipse and it showed tagalog version of total eclipse of the heart which is "bakit hindi ka naging tapat"... ugh. abnormal drowsiness coming up.), at sa pagbasag ng bukang liwayway (in fairness parang 70s film by lino brocka ang title na yan).

I strongly believe in the Filipino's talent. We have a lot of creative minds canoodling somewhere pero i really do not get the idea, why do we always have to have a version of EVERYTHING. pero lets give them credits for that. Talented talaga tayo sa paggaya. With added drama, and such.

I saw the casting at twilightsaga.multiply.com. if you do not want to get offended, do not highlight the space below.

Rayver Cruz will star as Edward Cullen and Shaina Magdayao as Isabella Swan in the local television version “Twilight.” The hit vampire novel has been bought by ABS-CBN has bought for more than US$1 million with Ignite Media as co producer. The taping is set to start next year by Feb. in Baguio, Tagaytay, Bukidnon with some parts to be shot abroad. To be directed by Cathy Garcia Molina, the TV adaptation will focus on Edward and Bella’s love story to be treated as drama, romance and fantasy. The unofficial cast includes Valeen Montenegro as Alice Cullen, Gabby Concepcion as Dr. Carlisle Cullen, Luis Manzano as Emmett Cullen, Al Tantay as Charlie Swan, Yayo Aguila as Renee Dwyer, Fred Payawan as Jacob Black, Carlos Agassi as James, Chin Chin Gutierrez as Esme Cullen, Karylle as Rosalie Hale, Joross Gamboa as Jasper Hale, Jessy Mendiola as Jessica Stanley, Empress Schuck as Angela Weber, Brad Murdoch as Laurent, Nikki Bacolod as Victoria and Aaron Villaflor as Mike Newton. Rayver and Shaina were former love team partner but the tandem did not work. It seems their tandem will click in “Twilight"

Ok eto na yung word vomit e.

Sa lahat naman ng gaganap na James (edited: i typed in Jasper hours ago... sorry.), BAKIT NAMAN SI CARLOS AGASSI POR DYOS POR SANTO? SIRAAN BA TO NG BAIT?

Pero ito hindi ko kinaya. Nasa Twilightsaga.multiply din nakuha hahahahaha.


galeng di ba. ito naman kay greenpinoy.


Twilight paper. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAA. Yan ang creativity. Barugin nyo ang mga taong akala nila cool yang mga pinaggagagawa nila. Oh and by the way, find that petition site for "Takipsilim". Wow. they hated the version so much, they will really find a way to make it stop.

Pero kung ang rights daw ng twilight is costing around 1 million dollars, mukhang si Paquiao ang magbabayad out of his panalo at sha ang gaganap na Edward Cullen. Sa baguio raw gaganapin e. Wow forks. Tinidor.

Sige lang. gaya lang. sino ba ang malulugi. Nood na lang kayo ng ibang channel. Kaya ayoko ng manood ng local channels e. Mauurat ka lang kahit sa balita pa lang.

Birthdeps Eve.

I think this is the only birthday i will never try to celebrate. This is the only year that i really didnt feel any excitement or anything. Shit yeah im getting old.

Time flew so fast. And i really never noticed that my day is fast approaching.

It's Abhie's birthday too. I remembered the perfect birthday we celebrated last 2005. I read the notes cheche compiled secretly while we were celebrating. I remembered ourselves having fun. Jumped on the pool at around 4am. Randomly. Drunk with 30 bottles of gin and 3 liters of vodka. 2 cases of beer. All of my friends were there. Aia was there. and i read her note when we were so thankful that we have each other in our lives. but of course i messed up.

Abhie gave birth yesterday. Of course i got excited. but we have loose ends that I need to tie. She was so pissed off i disappointed her. in a lot of ways. coz i didnt grow as a person. And evaluating my year, yeah. i think i got stuck last 2005. Just in case you read this, consider this as my open letter. I really do feel sorry things had to happen this way. And Ivan was right. I kept on running my whole life. If theres a new word for sorry, i think thats it that i will be using.

I miss my mom. There were a lot of years she missed my birthday. Well of course i am too old for this kind of drama shit. But what do you know... old people still has issues. Or the fact again, that i am stuck.

I just wanted to sleep for 2 days. so it would be december 12 then. I wouldnt be thinking what food to cook, what my friends were expecting, what i would be busy of, hosting them, getting drunk with them. in fact, there were many days within this year that it has happened. so why would it be too significant. para lang akong saksi ni jehovah. ngayon naintindihan ko na.

i am not proofreading this. and for the past couple of days, hindi ako nakakatulog. naglalaro ako ng tokobot. kanina sa mall, i was slurring. thank god ryan was there to cheer me up. i trance, drank bottomless orange juice and had potato chips, talk, then trance again.

i really do not know if i am making sense today. its just so irritating that i have to oblige myself to be cheery coz of my birthday and christmas. i really do not feel cheery at all. cheery is not even my pretend-emotion.

im happy in a sense that i have friends. few of them are really excited on celebrating it. and im still afraid to disappoint them. coz im not emo. im just so blank. so blank, i really do not know what i am thinking right now. i think my hands got its own thoughts. it just keeps on moving and typing.

so okay. happy birthday to me. happy birthday abhie. i love you and i wish for pele to be as healthy as a horse. (pun intended. ivan's private joke. teehee) -- yey humor!

so there. i have to go to sleep now. and pretend its a happy day to look forward to.

3:41am.

I was really about to sleep since Ryan and I talked on watching Twilight as soon as tomorrow morning. I really do not want to watch it at the first day coz of the hype although ive had the book waaaaayy back and started noticing that everybody's blogging about it. I loved it though, but not like Harry-Potter love.

Then i started browsing and things that you discover before you go to bed... makes you REALLY awake.

1. Run is one of the best snow patrol songs. as much as we wanted to cover it, weve done chasing cars and signal fire. That song is somehow sacred to me and i really didnt want ANYONE to have it covered.

But i ate my words. Leona Lewis did a REAAAAAAAALLLYYY awesome cover of it. as in shet.

2. e=mc2: 103 years later, Einstein's proven right. Yes its geeky. but man, if people nowadays could actually create something from it, i would bet it'd be not that helpful for humanity.

3. Pushing Daisies got cancelled. tangina. I love pushing daisies.

4. And still, that last episode of Prison Break is driving me nuts. Like i wanted to be one of the writers and have someone TORTURED.

5. Oh come on. We all know that Britney Spears is great. And she's ripping off an Eraserheads' album. I kid, i kid. I saw her recent Rolling Stone pictures and hmmm... she has "recovered". On a serious note... i really want her back. hahahahaha.

I really should sleep now. Ryan will kill me.

In The Midnight Hour: Greys Anatomy s05e08

"Im just gonna keep my eyes closed because, this is like the moment in the morning when you first wake up and you're still half-asleep and everything seems... things are possible, dreams are still true and one moment between waking and sleeping, anything can be real, and then you open your eyes and the sun hits you and you realize that... im just gonna keep my eyes closed."
- Izzie Stevens

"Sometimes... Words fail."
- Dr. Hunt

Denny's ghost acting up like Patrick Swayze to Izzie is driving me nuts. I know it's impossible that Denny is friggin alive coz yeah Izzie saw his heart for autopsy and having a twin for a twist is lamer than lame.

But Izzie breaking down and confused fuckin breaks my heart.

Izzie: Alex wait. I'm a mess. I'm a frickin' mess and I know that and, I ... you deserve better.
Alex: Stop it. If you don't want to be with me, if this is too much for you right now, it's okay. But you're gonna have to break up with me, because I'm not going anywhere. I can handle the mess. It's up to you.

Hello ambabaw ng luha ko. Tapos maggagaganyan si Karev. And Denny saying... its ok, im just right here.

Dr. Hunt to Cristina is awesome. Him being such a sensitive soldier is too much though. tapos tyope pa. hahaha pero i think It's time that they gave Cristina some love interest after Burke.

the crazy interns are interesting huh. I wanna buy a DIY appendectomy and pull a friend out of his normal life then hand him a scalpel. Just for fun. wow psycho.

Ok back to reality.

PSP 5.00 m33-3 and Red Cups.

Yesterday was a not-so-good day. Since ive planned going to the UDD gig at Podium and Sourberry at 6UG, i actually never left Road 3 at all. In fact, i just enjoyed eating weird german potted meat spreads and nutella while i am psuedo-hired as a pseudo-spy. Ive waited for my very reliable profiling database, friendster, to up their site coz they had the maintenance since morning of yesterday. Unfortunately, it's still a mess.

Ryan passed by, giving me the new starbucks promo card, which i think became my thing for 5 years now, From coupon-generous planners,  til free pens that became a pencil. It was my sort-of journal before until LJ. and Multiply. And i think i got to use um... 1/4 of every planner. but this year's was the jampacked. Receipts, stickers and concert tickets.

The promo card only needs 16 stickers. Which i think, is still okay coz they started late. Before, i think they need 24 stickers coz they start at October.

So he went home, i started surfing again, then i saw this new PSP game, N+, that had nice ratings. Looked for it but what i found is... the 5.00 m33-3 software for PSP. Mine was 3.90 m33-3 so i thought... Holy crap, this will be a looooong upgrade. But it just took me 3 upgrades away. ^__________________________^

3.90 m33-3 > 4.01 m33 > 5.00 m33 > 5.00 m33-3

which is actually nice coz ive heard 5.00 m33-2 was so buggy.

I slept at 7am. :s But it was all worth it. although i didnt find much change on the PSP's performance. It just had this Playstation Store, which i doubt everyone would celebrate seeing it on their consoles. Hackers get it for free dude. Get over yourselves. Thing is, you could change your XMB using CTF files instead of going to your flash0 on Recovery Mode!!!



like this!!! you can just change that with just a press of an x!! (courtesy of Consolespot.net)
...

that sounded geeky and senseless, doesnt it? (i so love that artwork from Buuf. And just in case you wanted to download it as well, just click HERE. :D)

I woke up at around 1130am, trying to pull the curtains coz the daylight tries to seep through my eyelids and then i found this on my computer table.



Venti Dark Cherry Mocha ♥♥♥

... with a Red Ribbon Sponge Cake. Goodness. After typing those things... i just got stuck to period. I really do not know what to say. :*) And I really dont know... what to.. say. :D But to that stalky creepy but more-than-i-dont-know-if-sweet-describes-this person... i love you so much. ♥

so moving on, (this is really about the planner anyway...), it looks like the 2005 planner. in 3 different colors. which is not a good thing by the way.

(credits to CoffeeandBlunder for the very courageous taking-of-the-pic. Coz i know some managers are just a pain in the ass sometimes.)


Ok. Ill stop blogging for today coz my tortang talong is waiting for me downstairs and my coffee is getting cold. (if you want me to post pictures of the tortang talong as well, just say so. :p)

An Excuse is Never An Apology.

I was surfing online when I saw Yeshyee's YM status. I stared at it for how many seconds and messaged her a sigh... and so true.

When the world is changing, and when excuses are the substitute for apologies, i think this place is going to crumble. Justifications, rationalizations that makes us think we are right. forgetting that we have hurt other people based on our unsolicited opinion and criticisms. because we always think that everybody is a critic.

I thought criticisms should always come in a constructive form. So we could expect change. make everything better. If criticism is the opposite of that, it would be plainly, logically and simply called as destructive. So i really didnt get the idea that everybody could also destroy someone or anyone through blunt "opinion" (*insert HARD sarcasm on those quotation marks*). And i believe that there is another word for that.

If we are afraid of hearing someone criticize us in the same manner we crticize them, lets be sure that we are FAR more ready so we wouldnt just humiliate ourselves from our blown-up egos. Coz im pretty sure that pop is not even the sound when it bursts.

And as to backstabbers, if we are in a position to choose when youve discovered, defended and amicably confronted one, why do we always come as an insolent self-righteous bitch? I even think its a disorder. coz no matter that you try to resolve something in a manner where you prove youre more matured and well-upbrought after witnessing such crabby behavior, the backstabbing goes on. And for them they clearly do not know what they're doing, like theyre sleepwalking or worse, schizophrenic. as if blackout episodes come with word vomit.

I also thought that patience is a virtue. A virtue with boundary that when you exceed the limit when passing right patience... is tolerance. And we do not get credit by tolerating someone who runs his fingernails down the chalkboard over and over. Like its music to their ears, and yet pretend to regret theyve already done it. Or not.

If everything is not personal, why dont we just give each other the right to baseball bat each other's heads. Then pretend it never happened.
