Sorry I’m not updating my blog but don’t worry I’ll update when I’m free. Lots of things to do because of the accreditation date is looming ahead. Tons of work to do. Plus the daily operation of the library and midterm week.
I’ll post my articles postdated as I keep notes about important happenings, my perspectives, opinions, sentiments, etc on my trusty PDA.
Ciao for now!
Eureka! We finally found Eureka Resort… Im so gonna strangle you Arlan. July 30, 2006
Posted by raja-voom in Food and Drink, Travel.add a comment
I just said yes to Arlan about picking him up because of my spontaneity, if I only knew that it’s so hard to find that resort I should have said no. But since there’s nothing to do and there’s no plan for that afternoon I just said yes. I’m lucky Toffee accompanied me to pick up Arlan yesterday if he was not there I could have lost my temper and strangled Arlan. Hahaha..
But fefore fetching him we dropped by at the "isaw" stand for some quick bite and for some directions on where we can find the Eureka resort where Arlan is.
Fuck, it took us almost an hour to find the resort and that’s with asking directions. We end up going to and fro both ends of the street for nth time. Asking questions did help but not the messages of Arlan (he’s so not helping). Geez, we passed in the middle of a basketball court, not one but two basketball courts - Talk about maximizing barangay space. The road is right in the middle of one of them. And the humps there was not easily discernible cause they’re not painted. It was like Barangay Bucana in Nasugbu. Really. Because of the the sea air and the houses.
But all in all the trip was fun. It was thrilling cause we never knew where we gonna end up. And after each dead-ends, we just laugh at ourselves being lost. And I have never been to the outskirts of Balayan before. It was a first time experience. But even though I’m still thinking of strangling Arlan… or not.

Last night I finally have the time to catch up with some of my high school buddies. It’s rare for us to meet up nowadays cause everyone has a job and other sorts of responsibilities. So when we have time we usually meet at a friend’s place for some beers and catching up.
I hope we can do that get-together once a month, especially those who are based locally. 
Sayang ala ako kagabi camera. 
Sana me memento ako ng naka boxer lang si _ _ _ _ _. Hahahaha!
6B - “BASTED”, Braid, Brownout and Balayan’s Isaw & Boys, Beer & Bar July 29, 2006

BASTED
Yey! I’ve straightened things up. It felt great. He’s such a true friend.
I don’t know who started calling me as "basted" but it’s okay cause it lightened up the atmosphere between us. And he didn’t take it seriously too. Whenever we hear the word we just laugh and joke around. He’s such a nice guy.

BRAID
I’d like to thank Gina for braiding my hair. It was chic. But It was painful. Imagine your hair being pulled from the scalp, that’s how it feels. Haiz talk about vanity. I just agreed to braid my hair to pass time. If I knew it was this painful I have said no from the start. You cannot contort your face muscles that freely cause some actions can really bring pain. Even laughing can cause you pain. But In the name of being hip, I’m gonna do it again. Talk about vanity! I have a picture of my braided hair below.

BROWNOUT
I’ve been absent for two and half days already. I didn’t go to work (again!) yesterday because there was a power outtage and the library will be like a sauna because of the plastics that traps the heat. Even the large industrial fan is no match for the heat inside and it also adds heat because of the warm air it blows. It’s like purgatory there, really. You should try it to believe. Hahaha.

BALAYAN’S ISAW
Early afternoon we decided to go for a stroll to Balayan to eat "isaw" and to past time while there was no power. The "isaw" there is the best! Instead of brushing the isaw with the usual marinade they brushed it with oil and grill it. That gives the "isaw" it crispiness. Then you gonna dip it to the brown pepper sauce that gives the Balayan "isaw" the big difference from other "isaw". Also the sauce gives the "isaw" the kick in its taste. It was soooo fucking tasty that we don’t mind driving half an hour just to eat "isaw." I’m talking about food again. What can I say, I LOVE Food!

BOYS
Incidentally that afternoon 2p, Aris & Arlan were all there. The rest of Gaybigans teased me the whole trip. And to add more spice, 2p dared me to invite Uly for a night out in Nasugbu. What can I say, im a sucker for dare. As soon as we stopped at Uly’s house they teased me even more. And I jokingly told them that my nose gonna bleed if Uly will join the group. Fortunately my hunch was correct that Uly won’t join. (Honestly I crossed my fingers that time, I want him to join us. I want to ask him questions.) I don’t know what I did wrong to him to treat me as he doesn’t knew me or we haven’t been pals.
The pictures here are me with the three guys. They are a little blurred because it was taken by a mobile phone camera. I just want to thank them for being game.

BEER & Bar
The power outtage lasted for over 14 hours. The power supposed to be back at 5 pm. But the power returned past 11 pm while we were in the middle of daily drinking session. A case of beer was my treat that night but I want to reschedule it because someone important can’t make it that night because of his responsibility. But they have decided that it shall push through. I just thought it’s okay so I can fix the mess I made the other night which turned out pretty well. As usual, we ended at the local bar again for more beer and party.
Got to go. Gonna fetch Arlan.
I’m so Bitch July 28, 2006
Posted by raja-voom in Uncategorized.1 comment so far
Im so bitch last night. I played with a close friend’s feelings. Shit! I messed up big time. It just started as a dare from a friend and I’m not serious about it.
I messaged him asking what he gonna say to me if I told him I love him. I’m not gonna expound about it cause I feel so fucking guilty. To get to the point he told me that he need time to decide and he will let me know his decision after thinking it through and were both have a couple of drinks already.
I feel fucking more guilty when he thanked me for everything I’ve done for him he even specified the time he was low and I was there for him. He also considered One3’s feelings and even reiterated my feelings for One3. He is such a nice guy and I’m his friend but I fuckingly played with his feelings.
Yep I’m a bitch but not this kind of bitch. I’m gonna straighten things up tonight. May the force be with me.
(I’m sorry One3, I have said something against you, If you’re reading this I’m so sorry. You know it was just a dare.)
Empty Trash July 28, 2006
Posted by raja-voom in Uncategorized.add a comment
I was absent the whole day yesterday. Instead of working I spent my morning strolling with a former crush who suddenly messaged me and appeared on my door and swept me off my feet. I spent the afternoon dozing. ZzZzZ. XD
What a bum I am yesterday. Hahaha. At least I know.
That evening I have the couraged to empty my PDA’s SMS Trash bin. I was not going to delete it but it was occupying a large chunk of memory. The number of my SMS on trash is a whooping 15069! The oldest text message I received was dated August 25, 2004. At exactly 6:25 pm yesterday I tap the "YES" to confirm if I want to empty the trash bin. And there goes my conversations, messages that brings back memories of particular dates…
I find 
in reading them.
Well past is past! Gonna say hello to new messages - new memories. 
And at least I have freed enough space to save my new pixs on my PDA.
“Isaw” July 27, 2006
Posted by raja-voom in Food and Drink, Travel.add a comment
I took the morning off yesterday because I made up my mind early on that I’m not going to work. I’m still thinking if I’m going to quit my job or just take time off work. Bah! It’s not easy to work when you don’t wanna work. You just get easily tired, mentally and physically. So today I decided not to work again. Hahaha!
I don’t know why I’m on foodtrip that day, with a four of my friends we went to Matabungkay Beach just to have some "isaw" (chicken entrails). I think we have at least P150 worth of "isaw" and other carcinogenic foodie the stall offered. Talk about "some". Hahaha. That’s what I call Foodtrip!
But the funny thing about that foodtrip was Gina, she was the picky on food among the group. With a little encouragement from us, she decided give a stick of "isaw" a try. After she finished the whole stick, the look on her face was priceless. Our encouragement for her to swallow didn’t worked. Instead she ran on the other side of the road and puked! Well, one man’s loss is another man’s gain - more "isaw" for the rest of the group. Hahaha!
My foodtrip didn’t end there, One3 and I have dinner two hours after that "isaw" binge at a local "tapsihan." (He’s so nice and gentleman, he insisted that we’ll share the bill.)
Foodie foodie, me love foodie! Hahaha. But fuck, I am still underweight. Hahaha. I don’t know where I bring those food I eat. Friends are amazed on how voracious I eat and don’t get fat. Blame it on my fast metabolism. Got to go I’m starving. Hahaha!
Death July 26, 2006
Posted by raja-voom in Thoughts.3 comments
I remembered a text message about death when I was in a funeral yesterday. It was a friend’s mom. It was all sudden.
BTW the message goes like this "Death is a challenge. It tells us not to waste time. It tells us to tell each other right now that we love each other."
So I’ll make this post to tell my love ones I love them.
To my parents, I love you so muuuuch.
Nanay, I am so thankful for a mother like you. There are so many words I could say to you to let you know how much you mean to me but really the two most important feelings I want you to know are… "Thank you" for all your love, and "I love you" with all my heart. Lab you nanay!
Tatay, So often it may seem as if I have taken you for granted, that I never noticed all that you did for me or the sacrifices you made for my benefit. But I did notice. You have given me more than I ever deserved. I want you to remember,though my thoughts and actions don’t always convey it, and my feelings don’t always show,I am grateful, and I love you very much more than you’ll ever know. Minsan inuman tayo dalawa, di pa natin nagagawa yun. hek hek!
To my two wonderful sisters I love you. I’m very proud to be related to you two.
You two are beautiful and unique. As beautiful and unique as your names. Maribini Rene and Niña Bonita. Both of you deserves to know that even though I don’t always get a chance to show it, both of you are absolutely essential to the happiness I feel. I’m very proud to be related to you two.
To my Tiya Otie, Tiya Coring, Tiya Nene and Tiya Terry, mahal ko kayo kahit lagi tayo banggaan ng ideas, philosophy and take on life. 
Salamat sa inyo dahil kung wala kayo merong mga okasyon akong siguradong di mararanasan, mga bagay at pangarap na di maabot, hindi ako makakarating sa kinatatayuan ko ngayon, at higit sa lahat I don’t think I could have grown into the person I am without your influence. Mahal ko kayo. Away na tayo ulit sa T.V. pag uwi ko. hehehe!
One3 I know you already knew this but I’m going to say this again.
You are my everything. Thank you for loving me the way no one can. You understand me and you know just how to make things right. You will never know just how much I love you.
Just to let you know how much I do love you and how close we have became in such a short period of time. We may not have known each other long but my love for you is strong and it means everything to me. You are the one who always makes me feel better about myself and makes me laugh at all the crazy stuff we talk about that no one understands but us. I’m glad I found you and I hope we spend a lot more happy times together in the future. Thanks just for being here for me I love you more than words I could say.
Thank you for loving me no way anyone has ever tried. Thank you for knowing all the little things that mean so much to me. Thank you for understanding me. Thank you for taking time together having fun, talking and just spending time together. Thank you for everything you are and mean to me, and everything I am becoming, because you are in my life… thank you and I love you so much.
My friends - 98™, Madrigalz, GB, (you know who you are)
I Love you all! For brightening my days. Reminding me that clouds shouldn’t hang around too long. And for the crazy stuff we did. Lab Yah ol!
There, If I missed someone message me and I will edit this post just for you. :*

I love this song. Yay! When I buy an mp3 player this one will be on repeat for hours. HAHAHA
TY4URLV
Dimsum
My life was a constant uphill climb
Never got it right
Each one I love
Went through a change of heart
You came and my world turned upside down
You sung a different tune
Can’t let go
It keeps playing on my mind
Now there’s a reason to wake up each day
A reason to shake my blues away
Now I am whole, a lucky soul
Wanna thank you for your love
Thank you. Thank you for your love
Confused , my heart was in a daze
Learned to live with pain
I loved in haste
Then watched it go to waste
You came and brought music to my soul
Inspired me to the very core
You touched me where
No one has been before
Now there’s a reason to wake up each day
I thank the Lord for sending you my way
Now I am whole
A lucky soul
Wanna thank you for your love
Thank you, thank you for your love
I saw the world in shades of black and gray
Turning blue with every passing day
Just when I thought that maybe all was lost
My life took on a new turn
And it’s all because, it’s because
REPEAT CHORUS 2
CODA;
No looking back, no more pain
No more dark clouds, no more rain
Thank you. Thank you for your love.
Click to hear Thank You for Your Love from Tristan cafe
Love You One3!
Fruit of my Labor July 25, 2006
Posted by raja-voom in Uncategorized.2 comments
I received two news yesterday:
Good News
Finally I can get my salary of 2 months.
Bad News
I can only claim my salary from the period June 5 - July 14. They are figuring out how can they
justify my salary as instructor during May 15 - June 2 when there is no
classes.
OMG! Is this for real? On my hand is my fruit of my labor of two fucking months. (Even if it is one and one half month actually).
At looooooooong last I held the fruit of my labor. Yipee. *Cartwheeled* Hahaha!
Now I wonder how long would it last on my hand? Got to pay my debts.
- Nanay for my one and a half months allowance and for my bike
- Bausas store for some stuff like laundry
- France for the load
- My Aunts for extra allowances
Yo Nanay mababayaran na din kita! Love you!
I’ll just set aside my plan for my bike to have a mp3 system. It will just happen when i’ll receive the other part of my salary. For now Ia’ll just think what player to buy and I’ll plan to indulge myself for an long overdue shopping.
Boredom July 24, 2006

Yesterday I was supposed to go with my parents to Laguna for some R&R but i didn’t. I just have an hour of sleep when they messaged me to get ready but I’m too sleepy to do so. So off I went to slumberland again. Actually I had my things ready the night before so if If I made up my mind to go ill be ready in a jiffy. But my laziness have overcome my sense of travel and adventure.
I’ve woken up with a text from a friend overseas. And I can’t get back to sleep so I just moved my lazy butt downstairs to watch the boobtube. Then after a few hours I received a message from friends inviting me for the usual weekend stroll.
I was mistaken when I thought we were going to Balayan or some far-flung place this time and not around and round the town and the usual route. I was wishing that it would rain that time so it’ll be fun but it didn’t. It was boring.
It was boring all day. Really. Nothing to do much. If it just have rained while we where driving it will be such fun going around the town. Then after dinner it started to rain, darn. So we’re stuck on a friend’s place and decided to watch movies instead. Luckily I haven’t watched the movie so I enjoyed a li’l bit. But I dozed off somewhere in the middle of the second movie. And to top the night off, the rain I was hoping for fell like it will not stop while I am on my way home and there’s no place to take shelter from the rain. I was soaking wet when I reached home.
Sheesh. If I just went with my parents to Laguna my weekend will not be such a waste.
But then again will I have fun in the company outing? Maybe if there will be some hot guy around. But how can I flirt with my parents around. HAHAHA. BORING!
