Sick...psycholo sick

As Toni pointed out in the comments section, I might indeed be schizo…or probably more on the manic-depressive side.

Such a post after the cloud nine one isn’t really very healthy is it?

Scary.

Well, that happens once the excitement has all died down. The dreaded lull period. The time when you’re still reminiscing about the fun times and hoping that it will happen once again yet not knowing exactly when and how. Hence you’re stuck between the good times.

Just like Ronan Keating said, Life is a Rollercoaster.

It’s gonna pick up again soon and my posts will once more be merry and gay (although I rarely post during this time since I’m too busy being merry and gay).

But then again why should I wait for life to be happy once again when I can make it happen right now? (I think I can, I think I can)
The parents being out of town will be a factor.

This weekend’s resolution:

- GO OUT and get a life!!

…this might be quite easy this weekend seeing that it’s sale at Market Market.

'Coz you had a bland day...

I am in a rut. All I ever do these days is go to work, go back home, sleep, wake up, go to work again. It's an endless cycle.

I need a life. Something new and exciting to give me that "oomph!" in each step out of that doorway.

I don't do anything physical that I can stay up for 24 straight hours. I don't feel tired in the physical sense.

It's like I'm just....there.

Waiting, walking like a ghost. I have reached the saturation point. I am not amazed by things anymore. Well, the things I encounter daily at least.

Blah.

I need a vacation.

"Danse comme si personne te regardait, travaille comme si tu n'avais pas besoin d'argent, aime comme si tu n'avais jamais soufert."

...et baise comme si tu es toujours filmé.

Cloud 9

This has nothing to do with the box of Cloud 9 chocolates that I bought last weekend, along with 4 bags of chips, some French Onion dip, tortillas, and enchilada sauce.

It has everything to do though with the feeling of blissful happiness.

My head has been up in the clouds the past few days thinking of what great adventure awaits me. Actually, I already have a very clear idea of what the adventure would be, the only problem is determining where and when and maybe, in some cases, how.

Which makes me wonder...why do we call this sort of feeling "On Cloud Nine" ? Whis is it not cloud 8 or 7? Mountain 12? Evaporation 4? Mist 22?

Apparently the expression was formed through the US Weather Bureau. As the story goes, they used to describe clouds by assigning them numbers: Level Nine was the very highest cumulonimbus (whatever that is), which can reach 30,000-40,000 feet and appear as glorious white mountains in the sky. Hence, if you were on cloud level nine, you would be at the very peak of existence with a horrid sunburn on your back.

So there you go. This also explains why it hurts so bad once you're not on cloud nine anymore. I just hope I don't get burned and broken that bad once this all falls over, or should I say once I fall off.

By the way, out of the box of Cloud 9s that I bought, I was only able to eat 2. With 3 snackin' crazy brothers, go figure what happened. Sometimes I'd like to throw them on top of a white mountain in the sky and make them disappear forever in the midst of wonderful cotton candy-like fluffiness (see, I'm still a good sister: cotton candy is good!).

Putain d'enculé de sa mère!!!!!

I've talked about Astrology before and how uncannily eeriely constantly accurate it could be. But this is just crazy.

You and a certain someone have been going back and forth about the logistics of getting together, and the stars finally bring about an end to all this vacillation. It feels strange to have everything fall into place, but enjoy it.

Crazy and scary.

EMEA Sucks

Times like these at work can be so depressing!
No mood to think, no mood to talk, no mood to smile, no mood to work.

But then one simple email can make everything change.

You get in the mood to think, but not about which TP to call next but about where to go on vacation and how to tell your boss that you'll be catching some sort of horrible illness mid-May. You get in the mood to talk not about EDI specifications but about any single interesting thing you can think of. And you do not just get in the mood to smile, but you turn into a giddy 6th grader who just found out that the cutest guy in the school plans to ask her to the dance that your mouth muscles start to ache because they have been stuck in "smile-mode" since this morning.

But you are still in no mood to work because now you are occupied with other more pleasant, wonderful things.

The day's not depressing anymore, but work still is.

I didn't say that the change was for the better did I?

Meron din akong "bakit"

Bakit...

ang dali dali ko ilayo ang sarili ko sa bagay o tao na nung minsan ay napakaganda ng relasyon namin?

Am I that aloof and shallow na kaya ko itapon ang isang magandang pagsasama, walang kadahilanan, isang iyak lang at patuloy nanaman ang buhay?

Ayoko man isipin, pero siguro nga.

Sana defense mechanism lang ito. Or maybe it's a matter of "Do unto others before they do it unto you"?

Is there a shrink in the house?

Blech.

Time to bring that Sarah Mclachlan album out again.

Clueless.

At least 3 guys asked me why I was wearing a dress yesterday.
I was wearing a skirt.
Of course the OC me corrected them by saying that it's not a dress, but a skirt.

Today, the same guys noticed that I'm wearing a dress once again.

For the love of fashion guys, it's called a skirt!!

skirt: n. a separate free-hanging outer garment or undergarment usually worn by women and girls covering some or all of the body from the waist down

key word: from the waist down.

Maybe men and fashion just does not go together. Unless he's gay, P. Diddy or David Beckham. But I am not saying that these guys have good fashion sense either but at least I'm sure they know the difference between a dress and a skirt.

The post says it all:

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!DIET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm as calorie-filled as a whole boxful of Petit Écoliers, dammit!!

The art of resourcefulness

Eversince Limewire was blocked at the office, media files have been pretty scarce. Take note that I am using the word scarce loosely. It basically means I cannot download the stuff I exactly want (no, not porn!) and I, like a poor remora eel, had to content myself by sucking off the resources of other people more resourceful than I was.

I'm not complaining or anything. I have copied the first season of Lost, AeonFlux, Brokeback Mountain and other neat (OMG, I just said neat) new movies and shows. But of course, I can't be a leecher the entire time and besides, I have my own agenda. Thanks to Bit Torrent and a lot of sneaky bandwidth usage tweaking, I can now resume more fruitful activities.

I have now successfully acquired the first few episodes of Scrubs season 5, half of the new Les Bronzés movie and a quarter of Pink Panther.

And this just right after our company's Integrity session.

Being resourceful is fun!
