My New Crush!

Hahahahaa! At siyempre pa... while procrastinating... and waiting for 9AM... when I can actually get out of here... I tried looking for articles about PHDComics (see previous post)...

But of course, one of the first google results on PHDComics is in Wikipedia... I know I can get information on PHDComics on its own site but I just wanted to check out other articles that have been written about it... so I scanned the Wiki pages and I realized that I already know most of the content since I've been reading the comic since forever (i.e. when I was in college... last year... hahahah! ok! fine! around 2002 when I first saw it on one of the last opened sites in one of our lab computers). And then I saw Jorge Cham's picture... Ok he wasn't really that cute in that particular picture... so I tried reading the Wiki on him... and I saw this other picture...

Hehehe! He looks cuter here right!??! So ok... maybe his cuteness is debateable... but then... who wouldn't like a guy who has a PHD from Stanford, teaching in Caltech, doing research on Neural Prosthetics, AND/BUT can still argue the power of my most favorite hobby in the whole wide world?!?!!

Thanks for making my virtual world a better place Jorge Cham! You rock my cyberworld!

Happy Thoughts!

After what I've gone through today... I NEED HAPPY THOUGHTS!

Buti na lang may PHDcomics to keep me sane!!!!

So far... the comic below is my favorite comic... I could have sung it when I was an undergrad in Ateneo... I had all of the materials mentioned in the song at my disposal! But most of all... Cecilia and I, STILL, both want MONEY! Hahhahaah!

I love Chuck Lorre Vanity Cards!

I have been watching Two and a Half Men since forever but I haven't really noticed the vanity cards because I always change the channel (if on TV) or I immediately click the next episode (if on my PC) when a particular episode is done.

It was when I started watching The Big Bang Theory (and yes! I Love Jim Parsons)

that I noticed and started freeze-framing on the vanity cards. This is actually what led me to ask... who is Chuck Lorre? Our humor is just so similar!

Then I started looking for him on the internet wanting to watch his other "products" and realized he was also one of the people behind Two and a Half Men and Dharma & Greg (I was still in high school when the show was aired and we had no cable so I haven't really watched it even though I knew of it). So, I downloaded the entire 6 seasons of Two and a Half Men (now, with the complete Season 7) and, so far..., the complete first three seasons of Dharma & Greg.  I hope to watch all of his productions eventually.

So what got me to writing this piece? I just read his newest vanity card, and two lines caught my eye:

"My memory of you is better than you." - Lao Tzu
Erectile dysfunction commercials cause erectile dysfunction." - Words of a prophet, written on a subway wall and tenement hall

Both lines got me thinking... oh! yeah...

Hahahahaha!!!

An Irrational Rant

I know I probably don’t have the right to be so pissed…  but I am.

I parked my car on a space on the "village" road, in front of a tree, in the middle of 2 homes. I don’t know  whose property I was parking on. I don’t even know if anyone owns that particular space since IT IS A PART of the street. By the way, I WAS NOT BLOCKING ANY DRIVEWAY! I made sure of that ( I don't want anyone parking on my future driveway, so I don't want to do it to other people).

Anyway, the guard on duty came to my unit and asked me to move my car because "Ma'am Liezel" (I don’t know if I have the spelling right) was not too happy at baka mag-away pa daw kami. Di ko alam bakit niya ako aawayin since as far as I know… wala akong driveway na blinoblock… also, the driveways, on both ends of my car, are too cluttered anyway for anyone to be able to park there. I don’t know who "Ma'am Liezel" is… and right now… I don't pretty much care. Or maybe I do care… I need to know who she is just so I know who I'll be messing with if she pisses me off too much (in the future).

I told the guard that I'll just finish my meal, and then I'll move my car. So ok… maybe it took me 3 hours to finish my meal kasi medyo nairita ako sa sinabi ng guard about "Ma'am Liezel"... pero eventually I did go and get my car to move it.

When I got in my car, may papel sa windshield ko. Nakasulat in angry writing… well it looked angry to me (di na ata to verbatim kasi I crumpled the paper after I read it): "NO PARKING!!! PLS. PARK OUTSIDE [the village, because I don't have my own parking, I own a studio type unit] OR NEXT TIME I'LL HAVE YOUR CAR TOWED!!!"

Yeah... Yeah... Maybe they do own the street on the side of their house… pero really?! Threats?! Really?!

And yes... maybe it's not a threat… maybe (like a line in a movie) it's a promise that they'd really have my car towed if I did park there again… but that wasn't really what got me fuming! What really pissed me off was the paper that was used to "threaten" me. Apparently whoever wrote that was from ABS-CBN Media. Well, it said so on the header.

Maybe that was the paper na accessible agad habang nag-ngingitngit sa galit yung bruhang sumulat sa papel na yun… pero come on! Really!?! Mag-isip ka naman! Do you even know what that implied at all!?

Parang ang lakas ng loob mo magpa-tow ng kotse ng iba dahil mayaman ka (kahit naman ang kalat kalat ng driveway mo! (hahaha! Sorry! Like what I said in the subject… irrational rant)) at nagtratrabaho ka for one of the most prestigious media companies in our country.

COME ON!!! REALLY?!?! NAGYAYABANG KA BECAUSE MEDIA KA?! COME ON!!!!!! HOW SENSELESS IS THAT! You''re just a glorified tsismosa because what you gossip about is labeled "NEWS"!

I hope you get run over by a tow truck!

Rant over.

Today is Ten Twenty Twenty Ten

A Guy Made Me Cry Last Friday...

Gusto kong magpasalamat sa lungs ko... kasi nakayanan ko pang mag-inhale exhale para icontrol ang sarili ko. Nung kinausap ako ng TL namin.... di ko kinaya... naiyak ako sa sobrang frustration sa katangahan talaga ng hayup na yuN! Para akong nagpapaliwanag sa kisame... feeling ko mas ok pa yung kisame kasi kung um-echo man... tama yung ibabalik na explanation sa akin... siya?!?!? ang out of this world lang talaga! HOMAYGEDS!!!

AYOKO NG TANGA!!!! AYOKO NG TANGA!!! AYOKO NG TANGA!!!

Ok... minsan tanga ako... pero kung alam kong di ko alam... tumatahimik ako o kaya nagtatanong for clarification! HINDI KO IPINAGPIPILITAN ANG Iniisip KO kung di ako sigurado! Fucker! Alam ng mga kaibigan ko na gusto ko parati akong tama... pero kung di ko kaya i-fight to the end yung feeling ko eh alam ko... tumatahimik ako!!!! Kaya kung di mo kaya ipagtanggol yung mga pinagsasasabi mo... TUMAHIMIK KA NA LANG!!!! WAG MO NA AKO i-expose sa kabobohan mo!!!!! At wag na wag mo akong gagawing sinungaling PUTANG-INA MO! LINTIK LANG WALANG GANTI POTA KA!!!

AYOKO NG TANGANG MAYABANG!!!

Missing you...

We lost Mommy, my maternal grandmother, when I was in highschool... I thought we'd be done grieving after a few months... or even after a year or two.. considering that we were an extended family... we''ll that's what I thought... and I guess... I thought wrong.

Yes, we still miss her from time to time... we'd reminisce about what she used to say to us when we behaved badly, we'd reminisce about the things she used to do, the things she used to like. But we'd all remember it with a smile and a laugh.

I never thought that when caught in just the right moment and you hear one simple phrase that would remind you of the person you lost, or why you lost them... I never thought that it would actually set off the tears brigade... even after a decade has passed.

I write about this often enough, but usually with a smile on my face... it is only now that I write about this with tears on my face... and I guess this wouldn't be the last. Why is it that even when you know that a person's gone,   you only just do realize that they're not there when you want to hug them... but you can't.

I miss you Mommy!

HAY KANET BELIEVE IT!

Hahhahaha! Because I am the vain person that I am... I checked if by typing "Budlot22" in Google, the search would generate significant results...i.e. would this blog be found? Yes, this blog is one of the results... among a few others.

But the most important find I found... is the V1WORLD! Hahahaha! This was our block site when we were in college which was developed by Jan! Unfortunately, some of the pictures can't be displayed anymore because this was originally in geocities... and as we know... geocities is of the days gone by already.

I just need to copy the following... just in case the site is finally deleted off the web.


Chapter 1: Getting to Know Block V1's Environment

• 'Twas the first semester, inside a Filipino 11 class when a student from Block V1 sang a song:

"Ngayon at kailanman, sumpa ko'y iibigin ka..." (JC)

• The next day, the teacher wrote on the black board:

"Bawal ang panggagago sa klase!!!!!! =)" (Sir Francia)

• Another V1 teacher, while discussing distance, once said:

"Some of you think you know everything; that is very far from the truth!" (Doc Mara)

• The same teacher, during another lesson, suddenly shouted:

"Mr. Aguja! (pointing to Mr. Soriaga), what does the Extreme Value Theorem say?"

• A few meetings later, he again scolded another student, saying:

"Mr. Aguja! (Looking at Mr. Alvior) Move one seat further!"

• And Mr. Alvior transfers... Then he looks at Mr. Aguja asking:

"What is the graph equal to?"

• Another Filipino teacher said to a student with a cellphone on her desk:

"Are you making a statement?" (Sir Morano?)

• The same teacher once demonstrated a funny speech with the words:

"Naniniwala ka ba? Hindi! (with funny exaggerated actions)"

• During an SA class, a student asked:

"Can a hermit create his own culture?" (di ko maalala kung sino!!!)

• And the teacher answered:

"No! Unless it is a group of hermits living together. Huh?!"

• It's true that Block V1's teachers are funny, but some of the students from Block V1 themselves are also funny. In a math class, after being scolded for allegedly sleeping, a student answers:

"Sir I'm not sleeping, I can't open my eyes sir." (Raph)

• The same student once recited a funny speech:

"Alin ang mas masarap, yosi o sigarilyo? Ay... sigarilyo o yosi?"

Places to go to...

Kamikochi - Japan Alps National Park Resort

Shet! Tapos may hot spring pa.... This is where I want to go to relax... where I can hike and then come back down to a hot spring... tapos massage... tapos lamooon! Shet!

I also want to go to Nepal... but this time to volunteer... I'm not saying that I'm a golden hearted person because I'm not... I rarely volunteer here in the Philippines... I used to in college (because there were lots of opportunities and we would usually pass them off as org activities) but after college... I only get to volunteer when disaster strikes... (well... now that I think about it... disasters do strike our country often enough)

Anyway, I just want to experience volunteering in another country... see what it's like to help in another 3rd world country where I don't understand half of what they're saying. I found this site www.idealist.org where you can search for volunteer opportunities which are suited for the skills you have and you can also specify WHEN you want to volunteer... this is especially helpful for those who want to volunteer using their VLs (vacation leave). And the first country I want to visit is Nepal... although I''m not climbing Mt. Everest... because let's face it.. besides the fact that I can't afford it... di rin keri ng mga taba ko no! hahahha! So... ok fine! volunteer na lang tayo sa Nepal... at least I get to be in the country where Mt. Everest is, right?! hahahaha! Talk about settling! For anyone interested you can check www.webnepal.org. They offer various programs I think.

But then again... be it volunteer-vacation or pure relaxation... I still need... Money! Money! Money! It's so funny! In a rich man's world!

Shades, Sunglasses... whatever!

Ako na! Ako na ang pinakamasamang tao sa mundo!!! Hahahhahahaha!

Bakit naman kasiiiiiiiiii!!??!!? Bakit kasi may pumapasok ng office na naka-shades hanggang sa loob ng opisina!??!?! WALANG SUN SA LOOB NG OFFICE! and by the way.. October na! Maulan na! Wala na halos Sun-rays kadalasan... at kung may Sun man kayong maaninag paminsan-minsan... WALA PA RING RASON PARA isuot ang sun glasses hanggang sa loob ng office na walang bintana para masilip ang sun-rays o kahit man lang super-duper bright lights to give you a valid excuse to shade your eyes! (Unless kakaopera lang ng mata mo... o kaya kung may sore eyes ka... otherwise... ) THERE IS NO EXCUSE!!!!!

Okay fine... siguro kung super cool ka... or sobrang pogi mo that you could pull it off... siguro okay lang.. double standards na kung sa double standards! Eh kaso nagmumukhang eng-eng lang talaga ang mga taong pumapasok sa office ng naka-shades... tapos feel na feel pa nila na hot sila ... KAHIT HINDI NAMAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!  And besides.. kung pogi ka at cool ka... I doubt kung gagawin mo to... unless nagdrdrive ka... pero feeling ko... FEELING KO LANG HA! When they get off the car... TINATANGGAL PA RIN NILA SHADES NILA... BAGO PUMASOK NG OFFICE! hahahahaha!

Taena ako na ang di maka-let go! NO TO SHADES/SUNGLASSES INSIDE OFFICES WITH NO WINDOWS! LALO NA KUNG DI KA HOT! hahahahahahah!

Well... I did say masama akong tao... hahahahha!
