Waaaah... John and Al got eliminated in the Amazing Race. Demmet. There goes my money. Hahaha.. No, I didn't bet anything on them but if in case I did, it would be on them. I just love those clowns - that is how I want to be when I get under pressure. They look so cool and calm and they do get along with most of the other teams. They're helpful and they don't put others down eventhough that they know that they are on a race. Not to mention they laugh a lot. I just love people like that.

Nice guys finish Last.

Someone once told me the grass would be greener on the other side. That would really be nice - if you wanted green grass. Night shift again. Night Shift in Libis. Staying up late in the Libis area brings back memories - with the super famous Pier 1 gone, I really feel sad and nostalgic whenever I go scanning with my co-trainees during breaktime. Hehehe. This isn't like me at all but since the other day, I was really uncomforatble with my new officemates that I missed the company of my old co-workers. The environment at my new job is completely different. It's very uncomfortable. Its just that I have gotten used to conservative people so it really shocks me to mingle with people like that. (I'm not saying that all of them are like that but most of them are. I didn't mean to generalize. Sorry. Hehehe.)

I woke up early today and I have to go to work tonight at 9. At long last, night shift! I just love the night shift - and there is no sarcasm in that.

I played Starcraft the whole afternoon with Joseph and I think I won't last the whole evening without sleeping. Right now, I'm in no condition to write whats on my mind so I guess I'll just be doing this later. Its 7:00 already, better prepare myself for work.

Hasta MaƱana.
We were scheduled to have a Starcraft marathon this evening because we need to have our bodies conditioned for the transition from morning shift to night shift. Unfortunately, Papa Joseph had to sleep early leaving only the three of us, Zan, Ken, and me available for battle. Since we only use modems to play, we have to play by pairs. Right now, I'm the odd man out. Ken and Zan are playing, Joseph is probably sound asleep and I'm online, chatting with anyone that's available on my buddy list. Loser.

'Reporting for duty, sir!' Hahaha.. Joseph had to go to bed early because his Cris said so.. If papa Jo sees what I've just written, he'd be hitting my head with a table tennis racket (with matching english - or whatever it is they call it in table tennis). Anyway, he's already married and he has a son waiting to be 'dispatched' anytime soon so he needs to be always by his wife's side in case that happens - which is really sweeeeet if you ask me.. I don't have anything against that, even if I don't get to play Starcraft tonight.

What does mine say?
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!

So hows life in your current job Neil? Hmmm.. everything is fine so far. I've made friends already and I really don't have anything bad to say about what I do there. I've been trough hell and back on my previous job so this is nothing compared to that.

Today is Donna's birthday. She was my officemate before and she's one of the very few survivors left behind on that sorry excuse for an office. I reckon that she'd be getting the one million dollar price for being the ultimate surviror there. Danny and Syrel are also candidates for that but Donna's the one whose getting my vote. Speaking of Danny and Syrel, I haven't spoken to them for quite some time now. Well, I'm not really in good speaking terms with Danny after what I did to him. As for Syrel, I wonder what her plans are? Do I hear bells ringing?

Must... stay.. awake... must.. focus... ZzzzZzzz.. huh?

My site is so unreachable.. wala pa ngang nakaka-alam neto kundi si corinne, si osang ako at si vien.. hahaha.. pathetic na site.. anyway, I have no plans on making this site public..

Yesterday, I was so drained I wasn't able to go to work. I went online that night using my alternate AIM ID, I forgot that Sir Allan also knows that ID too. Well, Its a good thing he saw me online because somehow, I was able to blow some steam off my head when he asked me how I was. Anyway, I'm running out of sick leave excuses so I used an emergency leave instead. hehe..

Prince gave me a good idea this morning. He said that I could use 'stress' as an excuse to be absent. Since I work in a service oriented environment, and I'm currently being harrassed - this is a valid reason. Well, it is a fact that stress is one major source of illness so it MUST be valid. At totoo naman na 'stressed-out' na ko e.

VIEN! Hulog ka ng langit! For all of you who knows about the 'freak' thing... wahaha.. nevermind. Strictly confidential e.. hahaha..

Looser loser looser loser.. hmmm.. loose temper loose shirt... Hmmm.. Hanung klaseng english ba yun? I could speak better english than that! And to think that I came from an excusive school for boys that is situated at the middle of a marketplace makes it even more unbeleivable. At babae sya a! Or is she not? Hindi mo man lang ba naisipang idaan sa spelling checker ng Word yung letter mo bago mo pinasa? Malala na to.. Kung ibinabalik ko kaya sa kanya yung mga tanong nya sakin.. From what school are you from? What are you doing during your shift? etc etc.. ano kaya masasabi nya? Kala ko ba dito, napropromote ka dahil sa kakayahan mo at hindi sa tagal mong nagtratrabaho?

Hmmmm.. Summit sa may Ortigas? Subukan ko nga yun Cris. Buti pa yung batang yun pa-Bora-Boracy nalang tapos pabihis bihis nalang nga mga models. Hehehe.. Hanlufet talaga.. nakaka-inggit.

"Princeroldan: freeze hiring dito until june.. bagal mo kc eh" Waaaaaaaa! Bobo ko naman kasi e.. Dapat inaayos ko na priorities ko e.. priorities.. heheh.. naaalala ko tuloy yung sabi ni Maki dati..

Me: Voice and Email ako.. priority ko VOice.
Maki: Ay pareho tayo, ako rin, priority ko ang boys..

Nyahaha...

* * *
Papasok nanaman mamaya.. Hindi na talaga ako aabsent. sayang yung OT e. Double pay yun.. pambawi din yun dun sa absent ko kahapon.

* * *
Papa dan, pangit daw yang Xenosaga.. hehe.. super robot nalang daw.. peram ko nga sayo pag nakuha ko na.. Si corinne kasi ayaw pa ibigay e.. hehehe.. Himala daw na nde ako naglalaro ng PS2.. e wala e.. wala ako sa mood at wala akong games dito! la na ako pera! hehe...

I wish you also work here Giles - We could use someone like you here. I've heard that the bitch is planning an offense of her own. I guess I should just prepare for what she'e going to throw my way. Besides, why should I be scared - I've got nothing to loose and I've got the support of most of my friends(kaya?). hmmm...

Ano ba yung Plue na yun! ang pangit na ang cute na nde mo maintidihan! kung ganun aso ko.. weirdo ko! pruuuuuuuuu... Uy! may dragon! I think things are starting to get serious with the anime that I'm watching. Its about time! Those demon card freaks should be worth waking up early for.

Speaking of pets, Osang has several pets and collections.. cats, dogs, cactuses, boys.. nyahaha.. Sosyal mga pusa nun e.. mahal cat food nila. I think what the're eating is much more expensive than what I'm eating!

I wish our gimik this weekend lands on a Sunday. I won't be able to make it this Saturday - our family has plans for this Holy Week.

My mom said, just try to live through this month. You can resign afterwards. I told her that I really don't feel like going to work again. I'm so depressed! All my friends are leaving or have left already and I'm getting overworked again. Grabe.. kabago-bago ko sa WH parang tier2 na ko e. Ako kumakausap dun sa mga irate na naghahanap ng supervisors.. grabe kilala na nga ako ni syntergy.com at ni hospicecareteam.org e.. First name basis na nga kami ni Greg at ni Steve.. haay.. Tapos I'm getting treated this way! Then I'm also having problems with my break sched. For the 11 hours that I'm spending at the office, There is only one hour that I'm always looking forward to.. my one hour break with danny ang osang - and I'm getting deprived of that. Feeling ko nga na napaka-importante ko na e... kasi naman ako lang backup ata ni maki sa onsmart e.. tapos kelangan ko pa bantayan yung phone.. kasi priority ko yun.. I can't take my break at the same time with maki and sheila or albert. Tapos everyone is sending me private messages.. Allan would be telling me.. "Neil, approve ka accounts sa Aris, sabi ni Leah - ang dami na e." Maki would be like: "Neil, paki bantay lang muna nung chat sa onsmart." Then Steve of hospicecareteam.org would be very irate on the phone: "Neil, I won't let you go until this gets resolved." In worst cases, Jacky (the owner of one of our accounts) would be sending me private messages about the chat that I'm handling.. and I have to totally ingnore him because I'm getting shouted at over the phone. Everything is very unstable here - and our system is very complicated (palpak). Even us techs are having problems interpreting it, what more the users?

8:00pm and I still don't feel like going to work.. yaw ko na..

Monday, April 14, 2003

Two more hours to decide if I still want to go to work. Hmm.. I'll just flip a coin later.

* * *
I wonder what will happen ni Rave today. I think something good will happen in today's episode (atlast, after weeks of having a dragging storyline). I believe the girl with the tatoo will finally awaken to rescue her 'knight in distress.' hehehe..

* * *
I slept from 2am to 10am. I won't be able sleep again this afternoon and I have to go to work at 10pm. That means, I have to be awake for another 24 hours. Or, If I really feel like it, I could just not go to work today. I wonder what will happen later...

* * *
I had a chat with Giles this morning about a sideline for a popular broadsheet. Sana matuloy. Atleast if incase I suddenly felt like resigning, I have an alternate source of income. Even if I'm still doubting my capabilities, I really wish that I could get a job like that.

Sana ipakita ulit yung napkin commercial nung ninja girl.. natuwa ako dun a!

* * *
I'm thinking of not going to work again tomorrow. If I file another sick leave, they might think I have SARS already. I don't feel like going to work anymore but I really need the money. I just want to rest here on my bed thinking of absolutely nothing, staring out into space while listening to Jars and john mayer. It's 12:30am and I have to stay awake upto 8:00am - have to adjust myself to working conditions again.

I heard albertcylynx will pass his resignation letter within this week. I wish he'd mention something bad about the 'powers that be' on his exit interview. I wish he'd say something that will reinforce my complaint. haha.. ansama ko. I've heard albert had two majors in college - he's from ateneo and he sure looks smart if you look at him. See! Smart people know whats good for them. I sure wish I'd thought of doing the same earlier... before I got attached. Anyway, I should have no regrets... it was fun while it lasted.

hoy, hoy...
hoy, hintay...
hintayin nyo ako...
mahirap nang maiwan dito...

The bass guitar is the best musical instrument ever... wish i know how to play it. oist corinne, paki paalala nga pala yung drums... hinahanap na e... Tuwa talga ako sa sugarfree - double meaning yan e. Sugarfree is the band that I'm currently listening to and its also a state wherein 'all I want for christmas is my _ _ _' is not bothering you anymore. Sugarfree, the band, has really cheesy lyrics.. pero.. lufet ng mga kanta nila.. lufet ng drummer at the best yung bass... nakaka-aliw. If you have time to download their mp3s, try downloading 'Telepono' and 'The Allan Song.' Nakakatuwa.

* * *
Osang, I already saw dreamcatcher, sorry po.. hehe.. well, it's really not that good. Its weird, gloomy, and dull - I slept halfway through the movie so i don't really know what its all about. Its a good thing no one did try to rob me while I was sleeping.

Saturday, April 12, 2003

I've been here at home for 3 days doing nothing. I didn't go to work last thursday just to sleep the night away. I did go out for an interview the next day then I slept the rest of the day away. William invited me to watch mud wrestling that night, Corinne wanted to watch the kayla concert - but no.. I just chose to sleep at home. Manyak talaga yang si William.. hehehe.. Now, its a saturday night - popoy invited me to a pool party in antipolo with his officemates (soon to be mine too if I passed) and Mark T and Wild kept on texting me to meet them at Shang.. Well, here I am watching Lara Croft on HBO, ready to doze off. Tamad mo neil.. I didn't even touch my PS2.. just listened to some good music to help me sleep. Right now, being depressed and all, I chose to listen to self-affirming music such as 'If I am', 'beautiful' and such...

* * *
Its my complaint's first week anniversary yesterday. And I never did hear anything about it since then. I wonder if I should still look forward to receiving any response from them at all. Well who am I to raise up such issues anyway. I gave one of my friends a copy of my letter and I was told that I don't need luck to win this case - well, that is true if our managers aren't really that corrupted. I hope they aren't.

* * *
Yey! I've heard that our payslips are already out! That means, I might have money tomorrow!

* * *
The 'Shout Out' function at the bottom doesn't seem to show properly. Sometimes its there, sometimes it not. well.. never did expect anyone to sign in there anyway.. haha..

If vien had posted borzy's farewell letter, I will post my twin's 'nobelang byebye mail'.. Joni always gives me more than enough attention, and that is what I like about her. I always forget about the powerpuff girls whenever she's around. Many thanks to all the happiness that you've given me in the short 7 months that we've been officemates. You'll definitely be missed. Anyway, as I've promissed, this wouldn't be the last time we'll meet. Sa muli nating pagkikita, twin liljoni.

Pin bought me a rare PS2 game - Super Robot Wars Alpha something.. he bought it somewhere in recto for P170. I was supposed to give the payment today but guess what... I have no money left - and payday is still four days away.. arrggh... I've been begging food from osang for a week now. hehe.. good thing she's always loaded and willing to share! (wag nang humirit papa dan..) haha.. It seems that osang's problem with her card got fixed already just the other day. Yey! Who knew BPI can actually close your salary account if you emptied it. Hmmm.. go home early tomorrow osang! Iwan mo na yang si ted. nyahaha..

Oist maria corinna.. i thought you were going to watch the kayla concert? i would have joined you if only you've given me P600.. di wag.. hehe..

"Huwag mo akong sisihin kung minsan ika'y hanapin, ito ang unang araw na wala ka na..
nasanay lang sigurong andyan ka.. di ko rin inakalang pwede kang mawala... ayan na nga...
Huwag mo akong sisihin kung minsan ako'y iyakin, dahil ito ang unang araw na wala ka na.." (Cheesy lyrics from "Unang Araw")
*sniff* JONI! mamimiss kita sobra! waaaaaaaaaaa!
