Ok.. so shit happened once again last night. i was with 2 cousins, my mom and some friends. we were drinking.. and then my mom wouldnt shut up.
She kept yakking on and on about me to my friends and cousins, putting me down and shit, as if i wasnt there with them. what the hell?! i kept putting it aside until i reached my boiling point and bolted. i needed to cool off.
My friend told me that my mom was inside the house and wanted to talk to me, at first i didnt want to, but i knew i had to. the whole time i was talking to her, my blood was boiling and i just kept shouting at her. she was crying and saying sorry that it was her fault. but during the conversation, she kept repeating to me directly exactly what she kept saying downstairs. when it wouldnt stop, i just got out of the house, and took a few laps around the block just to cool my head off.
When i got back, i went up to my mom again and said sorry and things patched up. i was sober and tired(first time i took laps, haha). so i showered and went back to my friends and cousins. i'm actually ashamed that they had to see and hear everything that went down. sorry guys. whats done is done.
I'm still a little tired and my head hurts. i think i drank too much again. oh well, thats all for now. ciao. later!

I let my dog, Spike, sleep inside the house tonight. its raining hard right now and i couldnt just let him stay outside in this wet and cold weather. aww.. he's sleeping right here beside me as i type this. i'm thinking on whether i'll let him sleep in my room tonight, w/c hasnt happened since he was a year old and i was 16.. he might make a lot of noise, or worse, jump on my bed and wake me up like he used to do all the time as a pup.=/
Worse case scenario: he jumps on my bed and starts humping my pillows like he used to do a long time ago. hahaha! now i remember why i stoped letting him sleep in my room! i doubt he'd still do that now though.=)
I noticed how careless i've been lately with my spelling. i sometimes mispell definitely as "definately", and whether as "wether", w/c apparently means "a male sheep or goat that has been castrated before becoming sexually mature". the hell right?! haha..
*yawn* ...sleeping sounds like a good idea now. guess i'll let Spike sleep in my room.
Lets go, Spike.. ciao people.

Damn it.. somethings wrong with photobucket. everytime i upload pictures, it gives me a hard time by making me wait for like, 15 mins, then telling me that i have to log in once more to upload pics. the hell man?!
I've been spending a lot of time lately with my cousins. its like we see each other every weekend now. this past weekend, we were together friday for this confrontation our family had about us and the vices we take (i.e. downers, marijuana, etc..). with each one of us cousins being placed on a "hot seat" and grilled by our parents. it was ok though. it was done out of concern since a cousin of mine almost overdosed a few days back. some asshole spiked her drink while she was in Xaymaca with Rivs or something i dont even know about and brought her to the bathroom and well.. i'm sure you know what happened next. her friend couldnt do anything since the friends of the guy with her were preventing him to help her, so he had to call a bouncer who turned out to be a Narc. they made her take a cab ride home alone, and thanks be to God, the driver never took advantage of the situation and brought her to the police since she wouldnt wake up. my uncle and aunt brought her to the ER and later found out that she was close to almost slipping into a coma.
When i was talking with her, she asked me how could people be so horrible as to do shit like that. i answered it simply, its just a fact that there are a lot of assholes out there who would do anything to take advantage of girls. it pissed me and my cousins off, but what can we do? we dont even know who the culprits are. she doesnt even know who the culprits are.
My cousins stayed over at my house the whole weekend and we celebrated my brother Justin's birthday, saturday night, with another all nighter drinking spree. good fun, food and drinks. a lot of drinks were left over though, since most of my brothers friends, mostly the girls, went home early since they all went for the hard liquor, taking shots non stop. and even me and my cousins couldnt finish all the alcohol, so i guess i'll be bringing it over when i go to makati again this saturday to be with my cousins to finalize the beach trip were having 1st weekend of September.
Scenes from our saturday drink fest:
(My bro, the bday boy.)
(L-R: Me, Migs and Mara.)
(My cousin anton, tipsy.)
(Migs, chugging it!)
Thats all for now. later!

Bout time!
Phew.. after like, 3 years, i finally completed the installation of my car amp. for 3 years i've only been using 2 out of the 4 possible channels that the amp is capable of producing. thus, not fully knowing its true blue ear candy.
All i have to say is, it was worth the wait. =) the sound it generates is just awesome! i just love the way the music is clarified and clear now. no treble spared, no bass left unturned. its like i have a 10 inch sub in my car! man, i'm glad i finally had that amp connected fully.
On a different note, relatives are gonna be spending thursday til sunday over at our house. meaning, no more room again to accomodate the guests. and more stories of my grandpa's "outraegous antics" from his youth. i'm not sure if his stories are at all true though, but they are definately entertaining told with bottles of beer hehehe.
My bro Justin's gonna be having his party here at home for his bday last Aug 17. have no idea how many ppl he's expecting, but its worth staying over for awhile and drink a few with some of my friends before heading to wherever gimik we have planned for that night.
I need new blank cd's to burn a lot of new songs i've been getting these past few days. thanks to micah for suggestions on what to download since my mind's been shooting blanks, except for a select few hiphop tunes, on what to download for a few days now.
Thats all for now i guess.. later!

You..
You still reveal yourself at the utmost uncertain times. i dont even know what to think anymore. is this for real? are you for real!? what happens now? i thought it was through and done with, but you utter words that move me in ways i didnt even expect to hit right through.. if you really do want something bad, then make an effort and do something about it. please? i'm tired of playing games and playing catch up.

Why is it that when something goes wrong, theres always someone to blame for that incident? for example, when a sports team loses, they may blame the officiating of the referees, the way a player may hog the ball, or like in politics, when something goes wrong, they will blame it all on a certain government official, and he takes the blame for everything and gets fired or replaced in the process. is it to save face? to restore pride? why cant people just accept their lose and just learn from it? another example i can think of is when La Salle faced Ateneo in the UAAP finals 2 years ago. we lost the series 2-1, with Ateneo claiming the title. who got blamed for the lose? Mike Cortez. a rampant rumor was spread about him being bribed by Ateneo alumnae for a huge amount of money to throw away his game and play badly on purpose. i believe in La Salle pride, but hey we should just accept the fact that we lost. thats it. end of story. i saw the olympic game of the USA Dream Team early this morning against Puerto Rico. USA lost by a large margin, thus embarassing the legend of the "Dream Team" monicker. all through out the game i saw USA players screaming at the officials for fouls not being called and other offenses. accept it, they played very poorly and Puerto Rico just played solidly good the entire game. Carlos Arroyo, most notably.
When i fucked up my college years by not going to class, i never blamed it on drugs, or the people i was with. it was by my choice and i am paying the consequences of my folly. i think its stupid when people blame something or someone for their misdemeanors. live and learn instead. accept your mistakes, and learn from it.
My weekend was busy. a birthday party for my cousin and aunt at my grandma's place in Quezon city last saturday. lots of alcohol and food as usual. thanks to my good friends for going all the way to the north just to pick me up before we went to Absinth in Greenbelt for the debut of our friend who held a private party there. i wasnt that drunk, but i did spill beer on myself. looking back, i'm sure i looked stupid trying to lower my shirt as far down as possible to conceal the wet spot on my crotch area where the beer spilled. hahaha. after greenbelt, we headed to Pacific village to hang out with the crowd there for awhile. it was like they talked about the Magic: The Gathering card game all night. i just kept nodding and saying stuff like "yeah?", "cool!", and "no way? nice..", even though i didnt have the fucking slightest idea what they were talking about hahahahaha!! that game was never my thing anyway...
Well, i'm gonna be checking the Convergys center with my cousin tomorrow. lets see what happens from there. sigh, if nothing happens, i guess i'll just work for my tita in her firm in makati.
ciao.
Oh, great start for the EPL season! Chelsea beating Manchester Utd 1-0 thru Gudjohnssen's magnificent skill to goal. lets go Chelsea!!!

Thought i'd share one of the funniest lines i've ever heard from a cartoon. it kept me laughing to no end when i watched the show and heard this line:
Wacky Deli (from Rocko's Modern Life)
"I am the Cheese! I am better than both the Salami and Balony combined!"
hmm.. it sounds weird reading it if you dont watch it.. oh well. thats all that popped into my head to write down anyway. i'll be back with a better, more sensible post next time. =Þ

Its time for an overhaul. im sick of the everyday monotone color that always recycles itself. time to shift things into a new gear, and change a lot of stuff. out with the old, in with the new.

Silence
there is a sound on the other side of this wall
a bird is singing on the other side of this glass
listening to footsteps, concealed
silence preserved this voice
like walking in the wind feeling
the waters edge comes close to covering my rubber soul
and i listen to the barbed wire hanging
there is a sound on the other side of this wall
a bird is singing on the other side of this glass
listening to footsteps, concealed
silence is preserving this voice
like a silver chain is thrown away
like a broken wing..

I still cant sleep early. what the fuck, right?! damn it, whats wrong with my body clock? even if i try and wake up early, it still doesnt help, it just gives me less hours of sleep. i dont want to use any sleeping pills, coz thats just gonna be cheating, and i dont think it'll help coz soon, i'll be relying on it to sleep early all the time. so, i'm gonna try and find a loophole out of this..
Useless bit of trivia:
Did you know that M. Night Shyamalan, who was responsible for such flicks such as 6th Sense and Signs, wrote the first Stuart Little movie..!? kinda hard to believe, eh? =)
I'm craving for some white cheese pizza from Brooklyn now.. *Homer Simpson drool...*

I rediscovered why i grew sick of makati. its still the usual hoi poloi of people. people dressed to impress and be seen. its not really my thing. i would rather be taking it easy in the south now, or at the beach.
I've been talking with my cousin, and we are currently in the process of planing a beach trip for me and my cousins. not sure though w/c beach we are going to. matabungkay, lobo or matuod? still in the dark with that one.. its either gonna be sometime this month, or early next month at least. i hear the waves calling and beckoning me to return to the shore.
I havent been much of a writer now that i've returned to my room. funny, but now that i do have my room back, i have a hard time sleeping early there. for no reason at all. its weird. here in the computer room, i've never had any problem getting sleep. but in my room, its like sleeping doesnt refresh me anymore. last night after arriving home from makati around 3 am, instead of getting some shut eye, i opted to watch a dvd of "Return of the King" to keep me entertained. i didnt get drunk or tipsy at makati, so i didnt feel the need to sleep yet. i ended up sleeping around 6 am. the movie's still awesome, no matter how many times i've wacthed it.
Argh! i cant even think of something new to write now.. damn it! what the hell is wrong with me!? i quit, i'll just take it easy and watch the UAAP games on tv instead. i'll be back and post something better, when that time comes. maybe tonight...
