Di ko napanood yun concert last Sabado. May paconcert ang dabarkads at may surprise pa si Bossing! Naman, naging busy ako at ayun.. Namiss ko. hehe
Sa tuwing mapapatingin ako sa show na yun, parang di pa din nagbago, siyempre nandun yun TVJ tapos sang katerbang host na makukulit at masayahin. =)
30 years almost running..
More than 10 shows tumapat sa kanila, at lahat giba, at sasama pa tong show nila John and Randy na hanggang ngayon di ko pa nakikita. hehe
Parang 4 TV network stations na ata sila palipat lipat and they found home at GMA 7, pero malay mo, baka lumipat pa sila sa TV 5.. hehe
Millions or I can say all the Filipinos watched their show.. It's a staple, a ritual when 12pm starts, followers all over the globe, basta pinoy, eto na ang show na pang pinoy!
Siyempre kasama naman ako dun.. hehe
I did visit their set for 3 times and masasabi ko masaya talaga at sulit, forever I will cherish.. Better than watching or joining the Uncle Bob's children's club. hehe
With all the fun and laughter and sometimes, cry lalo na may mga sad times sila..
However, at the passage of time, I believe, wala na, sila na, at hindi na matitibag ang
one and only show, Eat Bulaga!
I started watching the show, siguro nasa channel 2 na sila.. I mean talagang inaabangan ko yun mga portion nila, lalo na yun bulagaan! Saka siyempre yun TVJ, Tito na tahimik pero talagang maloko din pero tama lang.. Vic, bossing talaga, pag bumanat, talbog lahat! hehe At siyempre, kundi ka naman bossing kung matinik din sa chicks! hehe Joey, ay, wala na tatalo kung sa asaran at banatan lang, saka sa jokes, eto na, one of the best.. =) Saka magaling din magsulat ng kanta, nandun siyempre ang favorite ko, Itaktak mo! bwahaha
At siyempre, may mga host pa na magagaling din, siyempre, from Jimmy, Ruby, tapos si Francis M na namayapa na.. Tapos Micheal V, hmmmm kahit sina Janno, o even Toni Gonzaga na I remember, bago siya umalis ng EB, eh panay kantiaw na lilipat na sa 2 which she did. hehe Then maraming na dumaan sa EB, eh siyempre mga legends na Coney Reyes, Aiza tapos Christine Jacob, then, ayun marami pa..
Today, ayun Jose and Wally, badet na Paolo and the hot brazilian chicks being lead by Daiana if I got the spelling right.. Ah, yes, Sex Bomb na una limang dancer lang sila. hehe Then EB babes and yes kahit si Ana Feliciano, ayun dancer ni Willie. hehe Galing din EB..
Kumbaga, yun mga kalaban nila ngayon, dumaan din palang EB. Grabe!!!
Di lang naman yun ang panalo sa EB, kundi siyempre yun mga pacontest nila.. It proves the theory, na lahat gagawin para sa pera. =) Of course from Little Miss Philippines, Mr. Pogi na may mga generate na artista, example, Echo. hehe Then lotong bahay, ah Super Sireyna, even mga katulong may pacontest din.. The usual acting contest pag may bagong pelikula! hehe At yun matindi talaga, I forgot yun name ng contest, basta may papagawa tapos kailangan talunin mo, example, kainin yun utak ng baka.. Ayos. hehe
Then maraming pa silang pacontest na pinauso.. Laban o bawi, at ang favorite, Taktak Mo! Alam ng CRAP kung bakit. hahaha
Ngayon siyempre, walang kupas yun Pinoy Henyo at Juan for all.. Madami, geez kulang ang isang post for all the pakulo at pagimik ng EB na di naubusan..
Galante din naman sila, lalo na sa papremyo, minsan pinapanalo nila yun contestant.. Which is good..
At least, kumpleto rekados ang EB at mantakin mo, araw araw nila ginagawa yun Mon-Sat.. Geez, at di sila napagod. Dapat kunin na din nila yun linggo kasi panget naman yun Party Pilipinas. hahaha
Well, ah pag holy week, ayun, imbes magsaya, gumagawa sila ng drama in observance sa holy week.. =)
Bulagaan, grabe yun ang portion na pag malungkot at yun pinanood mo portion, tanggal ang lungkot. Hehe
I want to really thank EB not only because for the fun and laughter but also the memories na nakuha ko.. From the hosts hanggang audience, talagang sulit ang oras mo of just watching the show.. Very stress free at kahit marami pang critics or kalaban, wala na tatalo sa EB.. Besides yun mga banat ko, dito ko nakuha ha. hehe
I hope in the future, of course tatanda na yun TVJ, they should get yun papalit sa kanila, not as TVJ but host ng show.. Marami naman pwede pumalit sa kanila at tuloy ang show..
I don't know if they will reach 50 or 100 years, but it they are able to do it, wow.. More than Guiness record na yun!
Pero we are indeed lucky in our country despite all the chaos and trouble we everyday face..
There is a show that makes us smile and forget all those troubles, for a short time..
What a show, one of the best, in my lifetime!
Mula Aparri hanggang Jolo, isang libo isang tuwa, Eat Bulaga! =)

Black Swan
I was surprised last year, that Aronofsky has a new film and it's with Natalie Portman, Vincent Cassel and the hot Mila Kunis.. And yes, if it's Aronofsky, better to expect, the theme is dark and depressing. It was..
After my Wednesday shift, I decided to watch this film, besides I waited for it and quite surprised that they will show it here. Even I know for Darren films are not only dark but some scenes, well, it also involves nudity, or obscene or how about gruesome scenes.. But geez, I was surprised it will be shown here, than Scott Pilgrim. Anyway..
I went to Trinoma and watched it, even I already invited two of my closest friends to watch it. One well, very busy, and the other one, too far and it will be done on Friday which I know, it will be a hectic day and a damn traffic at down south..
I decided to watch it by myself..
Great thing, I arrived at the perfect time to start..
Nina is an aspiring dancer in a ballet company which hoping to get a big break. Nina by the way is played by great Natalie Portman. Then, her director, Thomas, had set up a new play and it is for the title Swan Lake. He also needs a new lead which was handled before by Beth which is played by surprisingly Winona Ryder.. Thomas played by the way by one of the luckiest actors in the film, Vincent Cassel, the Mesrine dude! hehe
Nina is trying hard to get the role and all of the sudden, got hard when another dancer came in which is Lily.. Played by Mila Kunis.. Damn chick. hehe
Then yes, added to that pressure is Nina's mom who was a former ballet dancer, played by Barbara Hershey and they indeed look like mother and daughter. =)
As Nina auditioned, well, Thomas thought not giving her the role since oh well, she is good being the white swan but so lame being the black swan. However, director changed his mind due to that "small talk" and gave the role to Nina anyways..
Then that made Nina not only happy, but also got mad, mad in the sense of perfecting the black swan dance even she did not know what is the right thing to do. Due to that pressure, she is getting images or events that she thought she is doing of. Getting worried aobut her skin and her habits like scratching, and fear of her mom and other things.. Even her likeness to Lily, even at first she is pissed at her...
Nina was getting paranoid as the performance comes near, and she is getting crazy.. Even the only advice from her colleagues or even the director is to loose her self, and being more sensual and real to herself..
She did not follow that advices especially with the series of events happening to her which she cannot understand, until the performance came in.. She gave her best performance, at first quite nervous but at the black swan part, she was able to pull it off admist of the complications happening to her.. Then at the last one, she was able to finish it and everybody seemed impressed.. Yet her, slowly dying inside, smiling that it's over.. Then cut! =)
As I am a Darren Aronofsky fan, I can say I am satisfied what he has done in that film.. It is depressing but masterpiece of sort of.
Of course there some flaws, like as you see, the story is simple, it only got complicated with what Nina feels and see about her pressure and being paranoid.
Another flaw is hmmmmm yes, performance is great but the emotional bond you can relate, like the one in the Wrestler, you can hope that Mickey Rourke can survive the agony, in this one.. You don't want to root for Nina, because she just need to get hold of herself.. She was able to do it but it was too late. How pity. hehe Or how about in Requiem for a Dream, you just hope you can help any of those 4 characters but well, you can't, there are so addicted it seems.
However, those are the only flaws I can see..
I can say, it's between 2nd or 3rd best film of Darren. In terms of performance, Natalie will go home with an Oscar tomorrow. I mean, I don't think Michelle Williams or Annette Benning will stand a chance against her. They are good actresses but Natalie's performance was just superb.. Not only in her acting but also as a ballet dancer, it is very hard to dance in one scene then get crazy in another scene. That's it.. No other explanation to add.. Definitely, that's her.. It's a long due for her to get an award..
As for other characters, it was well delivered. From Barbara, Winona, and the dancers and of course, Mila Kunis! Yeah! hehe I think that character she played, she played it naturally. =)
And my man, Vincent Cassel, it did not show his difficulty in speaking english.. And how he played that director, great! and added, he got his chances for the 2 chicks! hehe But yes, he was great.
Great thing about the movie, the pace as well.. Like other psychological thrillers, it will work with good editing and many events happening at the same time then cuts out.. It worked in this movie, like the scenes from the bar into Nina's room, I know it was raunchy and hot, but it was artistically done. How about the way she practices and other scenes, the scene which she was visiting Beth.. That was scary. Yikes. hehe
Her paranoia scenes were great as well, and of course well delivered.
Cinematography, geez it was hard to spell but yes, it was good as well. Even in a tight budget, it was realistic and kept with the pacing and the art involves in the film..
Speaking of Art, the dancing part help as well, how ballet works and the difficult training and the process, it was interesting of sorts. Sounds, perfectly fit for the movie and the dancing as well, I mean for the ballet performances..
And it look you thought it was a ballet film, but it was not fully for that. It's because of the feeling of Nina going in that process.. It just fit together in the film, with it's dark elements, it was a fit. Not that much but not that less.. Just fine, not perfect though.
Directing, well, it's Darren Aronofsky, he combined it with a sense of giving the thrills and feeling on how to achieve perfection, in a dark way.
But he should make lighter films, geez, even Pi was dark but has one of the good endings in his films. hehe I hope he can venture to that topic.. A happy life.
He won't win best Director or even the best film, I feel sorry for him because I thought at first, he will win this time for the best Director, but when Inception and other films came in place, it is not his time. Damn. Better luck next time!
But he is good already, actually one of the best movie directors I like. Maybe because his films even it's depressing, but it's great with its other aspects, artistically and creates a deep bond with the viewer..
Great movie and definitely, one in my collection, except for the Fountain. hehe

unplanned 21
Yes, I'm quite addicted to Amy Winehouse these days. hehe I hope she's fine.. Pano ba ko na addict sa kanya?
Last week, I was able to watch the grammy's and yes I saw the egg stunt by Lady Gaga and there was a rendition to Aretha Franklin.. Christina, Jennifer, and some diva's.. I listen to their voices, sabi ko, well, si Christina pwede.. pero yun iba, parang hirap.. Sana nandun si Amy and Joss siguro. hehe O kahit si Amy na lang lahat with Christina o Joss.. Pwede na.
Then yes, I got the 2 albums at ayun, like one of her songs, Addicted, to her. hehe
I hope well, she can have her head clear and make the 3rd album asap! Damn great voice and very intelligent songwriter, very clever, and raw.. Good looks as well, it is, than her chubby look before. =)
Tama na nga kay Amy.. Actually ang isusulat ko dapat yun Soma, sona ni Pnoy. hehe Kaso change of heart, katamad at mahirap yun isusulat ko.. Siguro sa July na lang, masyado kasi political powered yun isusulat ko.. Inatake na ko ng katams eh. hehe
What happened for these past weeks, well, still single, not had a special valentine pero siyempre done something special naman na wala narating. hahahaha Bahala na siya dun..
Yes, medyo surviving na stats ko this month, kinapos lang pero this March, eto na kailangan push na for passing na para makasurvive na for the next quarters. hehe
Ah sa shop, ayun, medyo mahina this past weeks. Naipit nga ko, peste talaga, kaya kailangan makabawi sa March.. Lalo pa naman mahina these months na walang pasok. Hay.. I hope yun mga plans for my shop magwork pa din!
March will be an interesting month.. Yes, like I always write, I tend to forget that month. hehe Pero yes, this year, let's make it interesting na lang.. =)
Algerro's stay is quite productive, more safe and I'm happy.. =) Pero naman, ang gastos ha, sobra. hehe
I was able to watch some movies and docs, which I was quite suprised. Kasi sa sobrang busy ko, ayun, di naman ako makapanood.. Siguro, pag gusto, ayun manonood. hehe And yes, I think I should get a good DVD player and a fan sa kwarto ko na tulugan..
I can't believe na this Feb, nareach ko yun target ko 15 per month even in a rush work.. Kasi parang every month lalo ako nagiging busy pero good thing, this month, I was able to manage it and besides, kahit walang kaha computer ko, gumagana siya. hehe
March at work, will be tight and tired.. Tight because of the target stats, tired, kasi OT's to come! hehe Good job and yes, medyo malungkot kasi there will be a big change eh. Which inevitable.. I hope that change will help me to stay in the company. hehe
Tired as well, due to some changes I need to do sa shop, kasi yes, it will be a difficult month at kaunti lang customers.. We hope we can survive that small customer count. =) Need to do promos and price adjustments, it will be a long month.
March also showing na ng Sucker Punch!!! 300 was for motivating guys to fight for honor, till death! This new movie from Zack is for the chicks, and yes, for the guys beccause of the hot chicks involved.. And the geek stuff as well, I love a blonde with a samurai sword in a sailor uniform fighting a big monster samurai with a machine gun. hehe It's like a video game/anime inspired movie, a dark one. If Scott Pilgrim is a lighter note, Sucker Punch is a darker note.. Hehe I don't care for 3D, it looks good at 3D.
Masyado ata advance, wala na ko masabi sa Feb eh.. It was a short month yet indeed better than January.. Kahit medyo short. =)
March? Let's see how it will go.. If it will be interesting and progressing as well..
Ah yes, I like what Amy sings.. Love is a losing game. Geez..
Last week, I was able to watch the grammy's and yes I saw the egg stunt by Lady Gaga and there was a rendition to Aretha Franklin.. Christina, Jennifer, and some diva's..

Ako
How to describe myself? As I answered it to an interview, yes, I am a team player, patient, fast learner and versatile..
Of course, palusot lang yun para plus points sa interview.. hehe Sino ba si Alfred? Siguro kulang tong isang post.. Pero ang plano ko, paiiksiin ko na lang..
Siguro naman, with all the post written here, you still can't figure out who I am.. How I think, or feel on certain things.. How I work or do things.. Maybe how I sleep or daydream.. Nandito na din. hehe
From my team, sa friends, kahit sa business ko or most especially my family.. They are the best people to describe who I am.. Kahit sa comments na lang ng CRAP, kilalang kilala ako. hehe
Pero as I look to myself these past years, yun former self ko parang nawawala.. Shy type overboard almost lost na, shy na lang sometimes. hehe My bump in my head lost for almost 8 years already, which it helped me alot.. Yun slow reflexes ko, nagimprove. hehe Or yes, naging business minded na ko, due to of course of my shop.. Professional because of my job.. And due to business and job, yes, naging goal oriented na ko.
I can say as well, romantic in the sense what I did to just court a lady.. Even I tried to many of them, only one worked. hehe Pero siyempre, ok lang yun, at least di naman sobrang effort ginawa ko dun. Hahaha, kaso patay naman ako sa CRAP nito. hehe
Hopeless romantic for now.. Yet, still working out. I can say as well, I'm out of shape.. Peste kasing chic-boy yan eh.. Pero don't worry, nakaplan na kung paano ako magiging healthy at the course of the year..
Conscious na din ako for everything.. Maybe because I'm getting old na din.. Geez.. What's going to happen in my story?
I also think I'm imaginative or creative, due to business kasi you need to make new ideas to make your business survive.. Creative in the sense here, in writing stuff.. And yes, because of movies and music, nadagdag pa ang kaalaman! Grabe eh. hehe
Sociable naman na ko.. Lalo na sa work ko, kahit quiet pero di pwede dun na tahimik ka na lang sa tabi kung ang katabi mo eh makulit at maingay. hehe
Pero masaya naman kahit mahirap yun work as long the team is great, at least tanggal ang pressure dun sa work..
Faithful, to God, everybody else.. Being faithful and leaving other things or worriness to him.. Just him, a big reason why I'm still here.. Doing all I can to really enjoy life. =) I'll do my part and the rest, it's up to Him.
Happy? Hmmmm I can't tell, park that muna. hehe
Siguro yun lang masasabi ko sa sarili ko kasi for now, I am reinventing myself to become better.. Even I have little time to spend everyday to do that, but I know someday, I can focus to myself not only to improve but also enjoy this short life..
Kaya, ayun, try to make out most of it and with the support of the people around me, I believe I can achieve it..
I will, definitely will..
I am now in the middle of my journey.. Moving forward to a better path. =)

Son
Reaching my 28 years of existence.. Yes, belonging to a simple family..
As I sat in a white couch, listening to the usual talk from my dad. Usual talk includes, siyempre advices, sabon and reminders.. I tell to myself, yes I can do those but di naman lahat. hehe But thanks to him, especially in these past years.. I am very grateful to have him as my Dad, even I know malayo pa at marami pa ko kakainin bigas just to make him proud of me.. But I won't give up, and I'll take his advices hopefully this year, magawa ko naman kahit ilan dun. hehe I hope he'll recover sa condition niya and long life..
Looking at her reading the results of lottery which I thought, sana manalo na para di na taya ng taya. =) I think she enjoys it, and well, telling me na sana ganun tinaya number and that.. Of course, di naman mawawala ang sinasabi niya na medyo malungkot. I don't want to dwell on that.. =( However, a Mom like her that I am proud of, on how to take care of us, making sure we are safe even matanda na kami.. Or how about chores? Siya naman nagturo sa min.. Thoughtful as well, and yes, the best magluto.. No joke! Ask my friends.. Naku lalo na yun salad niya, may pending pa ata.. I hope well, long life ahead of her..
Then of course, I am now sleeping in his room full of anime stuff, and vinyl which are endangered to be eaten by pest.. And yes, the room has a TV but no fan.. Pero sobrang lamig naman sa gabi.. hehe It was my first room before pero ayun I ended up there again. He is with dad and well, I tried to help him or us but ayun, he needs to really think what's best for him and simply work hard.. Lalo na ngayon, may family na siya.. Ah, I owe him my likeness in movies and japanese culture. hehe And yes, chores and odd jobs, he's the one you can trust..
I went to her place last week, and yes di ko pa din nakikita yun bagong house niya. hehe I am glad na kung kailan tumanda ako naging close ako sa kanya.. Before nah, siyempre kasi nahihiya ako sa kanya.. Lalo na nung HS and college.. But at the passage of time, ayun nagiging malapit ako sa kanya, at lalo na siyempre may utang pa ko sa kanya. haha But other than that, yun support, she filled it.. I think she inherited yun mainitin ang ulo, like dad.. hehe Peace Ate! However, for now I can say she is a loving wife and good Mom to her kids, my nieces pala.. A die hard Rick Ashley fan, and Sharon ata.. hehe But because of her saka si Kuya Dong, yun musical love ko, almost sa kanila galing.. Love it! Advices that she tells me at yes, yun mga gifts ko sa special friends, sa kanya galing. hehe Thanks Ate.. Well, I hope I could visit her new house sometime.. Kaso ang hirap naman pumunta sa LP ngayon. Lintik kasi, ngayon lang magkaka Maynilad sa kanila. hehe
Ah yes, one of the prominent alumni ng LSQC.. How prominent, eh nung GS hanggang HS na teacher, kilala siya. hehe I still remember, sinusundo pa ko sa LSQC using the blue wagon.. Which I know pinachop chop na ni Dad.. hehe Siya naman si Kuya, eh really I can tell right of the bat, di kami close noon.. Even he's the one before me.. Kaso due to what happened to him before until this 2000 ayun medyo nahirapan siya. Pero bilib ako sa kanya, kasi even he was not able to finish schooling in college, may shop siya ng cellphone na malaki.. At kung sipag at tiyaga, siya na yun primary example.. =) I still remember, he used to work at dunkin donuts sa Mu�oz, eh taga dala ako ng baon. hehe Then, ayun buy and sell ng kotse hanggang now, well, may stable na siyang shop... We became close when dito na sa D.Tuazon sila nakatira.. With his loving family na laging nasa tabi niya.. =) Kakainggit nga eh..
Kahit nawala sa kanya si Prong, he still became strong and overcome it and now, moving on happily with Ate Jen and Jeleane.. =) I just wish for him more success and better health.. I think he needs a stronger knee. hehe Tol salamat sa lahat.. At kahit minsan nagkukulang ako, pasensya na...
Yes, he is just smiling around, in my bed.. My special brother, after that unfortunate incident last year, now.. I can't believe he is sleeping in my room. hehe Smiling and calm.. =) A person who needs not only love but also longest patience and strong understanding.. Kahit lagi niya sinasabi yun hate niyang artista and gusto niyang superhero.. Oo lang ako ng oo.. hehe I am relieved na yes, he likes living at our side.. At least, I am getting close to him at take off pressure from Dad. I love him and I'll do my best to make him a better man even at his state.. =)
As you see, in this family.. I'm a witness..
I'm a listener..
I'm a messenger..
I'm a mechanic who fixes some problems within us.. Even sometimes, I have the wrong tools. hehe
I'm a bridge who connects the broken sides and roads.. Pero baka maputol in some time, which I don't know when..
Pero kahit I'm tired or bored or worse, fed up with it. I never lose hope or love to this family.. Because I think that's my purpose in this life, to make this together.. I still love them and because of them, it made me a better person, even in a wrong way.. Maybe because they show naman they love me and trust..
Kahit sometimes, they show none of those. But ok lang.. hehe Even we went downwards, well, we are doing our best to go up again with our own efforts.. For me, geez.. I'm doing everything to make it but I think we need everyone's effort. =)
Well, for now, even I think in the future that I may end up single because of the task at hand and as I get older, maybe I just do what I need to do for this family.. I always ask Him, continue to guide us and make Him the center of our life, to be strong to face adversities and continue to love each member of this family..
I almost lost hope before but I don't know what made me believe again for this family..
Maybe because of the memories I had, the events and yes, simply the pictures in those albums..
I can't believe, we were so happy together back then..
I just hope now, I'll see another recent picture of us together..
In one happy family picture.. =)
As I sat in a white couch, listening to the usual talk from my dad. Usual talk includes, siyempre advices, sabon and reminders.. I tell to myself, yes I can do those but di naman lahat. hehe But thanks to him, especially in these past years.. I am very grateful to have him as my Dad, even I know malayo pa at marami pa ko kakainin bigas just to make him proud of me.. But I won't give up, and I'll take his advices hopefully this year, magawa ko naman kahit ilan dun. hehe I hope he'll recover sa condition niya and long life..
Looking at her reading the results of lottery which I thought, sana manalo na para di na taya ng taya. =) I think she enjoys it, and well, telling me na sana ganun tinaya number and that.. Of course, di naman mawawala ang sinasabi niya na medyo malungkot.

Fri3nd
Ako bilang kaibigan? Mahirap explain. hehe Well, ako as a friend, I can't really say kasi iba naman ang treatment ko for a group of friends.. Sa CRAP, siyempre, ako ang pinaka quiet. Sa college friends, hmmmm pinakakwela perhaps, basta! hehe Other friends, hmmm still quiet yet ayun pala, antukin lalo na pag ang lakad eh gabi. Paano ba naman, after ng dual jobs ko everyday, almost everyday, ayun sasabak sa kalokohan! hehe
Like being a team member, siyempre I am a dependable person naman. Pero pag friend, more dependable. hehe Ibang level yun eh.. A friend for me is a person na nandiyan not only in the happiest times, but also in the bad times.. At kasama ko sa oras na masasabi ko pag gusto ko maging masaya in my miserable life.. Like pag nagyaya ako then sumama at ayos naman sa time na yun, ibig sabihin, that time, I am tired or lost but oh well, with friends, wala lahat ng yun.. =)
I can also say I can be trusted. How? Kasi may mga secrets that they just tell me.. Which I don't know why tell me.. hehe But that's fine, meaning they trust me. =) Of course, di ko naman pinagsasabi sa iba especially for those people who is involved. Crap... hehe
They also know something about me, which not all my friends know.. Meaning, I tell different secrets for each friend..
I also say na if I can be dependable, siyempre sa friends ko, sometimes, medyo dependent sa kanila.. Advices, and yes, financially. Bwahaha.. At least, nagbabayad naman ako, di gaya ng iba diyan.. =(
And yes, I can also say, not only kind but generous... Especially, if it's an occassion o kahit yun napasubo na, like the palibre hirit.. Ako naman si ungas, sige lang.. Kahit minsan short, pero ok lang, sila naman yun eh. Mga friends ko yun, lalo na sa CRAP.. =) Walang problema sa kin yun.. Money can be earned naman, but good and best friends, they are hard to earn or even find.. =)
Ah yes, honest naman ako na sometimes, may pagkukulang naman ako, lalo na sa mga lakad na importante, na di ako sumipot.. Alam niyo yun. hehe Pasensya na, pero I'm doing my best to make bawi.. =) I am very busy kasi lalo na this past year.. Geez, pasensya na ha.. But I promise, at least, I'll make up for it..
Masasabi ko din na medyo palya ata ako sa advices, minsan. Pasensya na din, kasi naman ayoko yun ginugulat ako, tapos hingi ng payo, parang ang hirap ata.. I'll do my best at that my friend.. =)
Saka yes, mahina pumick up, sorry din.. Lalo na sa mga pop culture, alam niyo naman, medyo di ako masyado sa TV and yes, pop music.. Kaya minsan I feel damn old.. I should listen to radio these days. hehe Or how about watch the crappy TV, besides, I have my old TV in my sleeping room.. hehe
Overall, I am a simple friend who can really rely on, I'll do my best to help and never let go of it. Lalo na sa mga kaibigan ko na tumulong naman sa kin. Friendship is a I think a symbiotic reaction.. Helping and loving each other especially in times of trouble. And yes, even in the times that my family won't even bother me to help, I can always lean to my friends, they are too as well.. =)
I believe a friend is also somebody who can guide not only in the right path but also support on what you believe on.. Even sometimes not right or fit for you, but as long you're happy, not hurting someone or something.. A friend will support you all the way. =)
As I look all my real friends, not all tagged in multiply or FB, I can't believe I have many friends..
People I can talk to. People I can depend. People I can trust and ask help.. People who in return, do the same..
Reason that this life is worth living for.. People who are not really related but somewhat..
Feels like related, a bond that make it work.
A bond called Friendship.. =)
A bond last forever..
Thanks my friend.

BusinessMan
Di ko akalain na may shop na pala ako. At surviving pa ha, despite sa ginagawa ko now. Medyo kulang sa controlling eh. hehe
Ako bilang simpleng negosyante or mangangalakal, sa tingin ko, medyo mahina pa ko. Kung magaling ako, dapat marami na ko tindahan o negosyo. Kaso, it may take sometime pa due to some personal issues or needs to finish something. hehe
Pero in the business side naman, first sa plano naman ng negosyo.. More on, I can say conservative approach.. Or let's say, I calculate risk muna bago maginvest o gawin ang desisyon, kaso takot ako sa sugod na lang ng sugod, kasi baka sa huli, problema pala.. hehe Gusto ko kasi yun may chance na sigurado yun desisyon kaysa yun basta feel mo lang ok siya, kaso ayun, baka di pala umubra.. Lugi ka pala. =( Mahirap yun ganun for me, medyo takot ako pero at the passage of time, naging kampante na ko, except kung walang pera. hehe Pero I mean may ibang desisyon na kailangan ingat na ko pero yun iba, kahit nakapikit, sige go! Basta may puhunan at siyempre monitor dapat.. =)
Pessimist and Optimistic.. Kasi, di ko naman matatanggal sa isip kahit alam mo tama, may tedency na baka sa huli, di pala mabenta o mali pala. Iniisip ko na mali ako at gawa agad ng ibang paraan.. Optimistic kasi paano ba. hehe Ah optimistic ako kahit kaunti ng benta, basta mayrun naman ako stock, mabebenta din yan. O kaya, kahit mahina nun first hours, sa huli, lalakas din yan.. =) Ganun ako, di susuko.. Habang di pa sarado shop ko. hehe
Advance thinker. Yes, kailangan yun, lalo na sa shop ko di ba. Advance na ko magisip like yun example sa taas or ano ba kailangan ko gawin in the next month. Naapply ko to lalo na sa capital.. Sa month ba to, ano ba malakas? Unit or accessories, or kahit sa tarpaulin na lang, para sa June, ano ba maganda ilagay? O kahit sa display ng shop, ibahin ko na ba? Kailangan kasi sa business, may plano ka na ahead, at least a day ahead.. Lalo na sa operations, kaya ngayon, dalawa na tindera ko. hehe Mahirap na kung isa lang, paano na kung di pa siya pumasok? Edi lugi na ko isang araw. hehe Promo din at eto, sa presyo.. Di lagi bumababa ang puhunan, minsan biglang taas, kaya kailangan maisip na agad ng other plan para macope yun taas..
Understanding naman ako. Kahit papano lalo na sa tawaran, lalo pag mahina benta o makulit customer, sige bigay niyo na, pera na yun eh. hehe At di lang sa business ko, siyempre pati sa mga tauhan ko.. Kailangan mag off or feedback kung ano kailangan which malaking tulong talaga sa kin.. Para naman sa ikakabuti naman din nila yun in the future.. Kuya pabale.. Yun lang, minsan, saka na! hehe Hindi, nagpapabale naman ako.. Kawawa naman sila..
Medyo mahigpit din ako, ayun dahil sa training ko under Kuya Alpro, may mga bagay mahigpit ako.. Thanks a lot bro! hehe Lalo na sa kilos, bawal mabagal, pag nandiyan customer dapat bigay agad o sagot. Kung may problema, sabihan ang customer. Wag absent! hehe Kung aabsent, sabihan ako at least bago magbukas.. Para may plan B.. Mahigpit din sa gastos at siyempre yun sa sales din.. Well, mabuti, alam na nila ang gagawin para bumenta.. Except naman sa walang tao. Wala naman ako magagawa dun. hehe Sa display ng shop, dapat maayos at importante, siyempre sa hawak ng pera. San ba dapat? Ano ba yun umiikot.. Which hanggang ngayon, di pa din ako magaling.. hehe Sorry naman.. Saka dapat may resulta lagi yun ginagawa.. At oo nga pala, importante, wag magdaya.. Lalo na sa customer at sa kin.. Mabuti naman, di naman ako nakukupitan ng tauhan ko. hehe
Importante din yun di ka nauubusan ng paraan.. Ganun ako, kahit well, medyo di pa ko magaling kasi iba naman situation ko sa shop.. Isip ng paraan paano lumakas ang benta.. O pano magiging maayos ang trabaho nila.. Kahit yun pagkuha ng gamit, ano ba yun magiging madali para sa kin at siyempre sa mga tindera ko.. Even on how to make my business big, what are the plans? Until now, I haven't think of that. hehe
Like in my work, siyempre, driven to succeed naman ako and importantly, team player.. Yun pagiging agent ko naman may application kahit papano.. At least, transparent naman ako sa kanila, at importante din bigyan sila ng feedback.. Yun sinabi ko na feedback din galing sa kanila.. Being more patient lalo na sa bagong lagay sa shop.. At siyempre sa benta and operations. Saka I treat naman right, parang customer, kung mabait at/or madaling kausap edi ayos tayo! Pag hindi.. Maghanap ka na ng ibang trabaho, or para sa customer, hanap ka sa iba! hehe
Bihira lang talaga ako magalit, at sa business ko minsan ako bad trip.. Pero alam ko naman, mabuti dito makakabawi agad eh. Eh sa work ko, matagal makabawi, like VOC! bwahaha Saka siyempre yun pakisama, iba naman sa negosyo, which is more madali, kasi depende naman sa tauhan mo. Mabuti naman magaling yun mga nakuha ko. =)
Versatile naman ako pagdating sa ganyan, lalo na sa updates from the expenses, puhunan, siyempre sa gamit and everything.. Changes does happen, and it's faster here sa business.. Nakakacope naman ako kahit papano. hehe
At huli, mas di ako nahihiya.. Kasi ako naman may ari, hehe At di naman masyado kailangan ng pakisama, importante kung masaya pa ang tauhan at customer mo, tatagal pa negosyo mo.. Kung may kailangan baguhan edi baguhin.. Saka ayun, dito ako talagang napwersa na di lang to survive but also to do the right things not only for you, but the separate entity itself.. The business.. and yes, the workers and importantly, customers... Important for me, is to be confident with my biz.. Kaya di ako nahihiya, kampante ako na kaya pa, as long lahat ay naayos at ayun, tamang desisyon..
Alam ko marami pa dapat akong gawin bilang negosyante.. Mahirap talaga sa simula, sinasabi ko na, sobrang hirap pero sa huli, pag natiyaga mo na, at kung kaya mong masustain and kung kaya mo pa siya palakihin sa tamang paraan.. Kahit maliit pa yan.. Tatagal yan.. At totoo yan.. Malayo na mararating ng negosyo mo.. Depende din naman sa negosyo mo at attitude.. If you have the right attitude, goals and control of the biz.. Whatever kind of biz is that, definitely, it will survive in the long run.. And importantly, earning the right way. =)
Kasi dahil sa shop ko, di ko akalain, di lang pera o kahit cellphone matutulong niya sa kin.. Sige kahit load na napakadami.. Yun essence ng business at yun pinagaralan ko, naging mas interested ako and siyempre, may plans for the future, ibang venture naman.. =)
At sana kung matuloy yun, sana maging successful din yun. hehe Siyempre like ko pa din computers, pero parang patas na ata sila. =)
Sana lang, I can bring the same success in the next biz I will have.. In my own way.
My destiny.
Ako bilang simpleng negosyante or mangangalakal, sa tingin ko, medyo mahina pa ko. Kung magaling ako, dapat marami na ko tindahan o negosyo. Kaso, it may take sometime pa due to some personal issues or needs to finish something. hehe
Pero in the business side naman, first sa plano naman ng negosyo.. More on, I can say conservative approach..

Versatile naman ako pagdating sa ganyan, lalo na sa updates from the expenses, puhunan, siyempre sa gamit and everything.. Changes does happen, and it's faster here sa business.. Nakakacope naman ako kahit papano. hehe
At huli, mas di ako nahihiya.. Kasi ako naman may ari, hehe At di naman masyado kailangan ng pakisama, importante kung masaya pa ang tauhan at customer mo, tatagal pa negosyo mo.. Kung may kailangan baguhan edi baguhin.. Saka ayun, dito ako talagang napwersa na di lang to survive but also to do the right things not only for you, but the separate entity itself.. The business.. and yes, the workers and importantly, customers... Important for me, is to be confident with my biz.. Kaya di ako nahihiya, kampante ako na kaya pa, as long lahat ay naayos at ayun, tamang desisyon..
Alam ko marami pa dapat akong gawin bilang negosyante.. Mahirap talaga sa simula, sinasabi ko na, sobrang hirap pero sa huli, pag natiyaga mo na, at kung kaya mong masustain and kung kaya mo pa siya palakihin sa tamang paraan.. Kahit maliit pa yan.. Tatagal yan.. At totoo yan.. Malayo na mararating ng negosyo mo.. Depende din naman sa negosyo mo at attitude.. If you have the right attitude, goals and control of the biz.. Whatever kind of biz is that, definitely, it will survive in the long run.. And importantly, earning the right way. =)
Kasi dahil sa shop ko, di ko akalain, di lang pera o kahit cellphone matutulong niya sa kin.. Sige kahit load na napakadami.. Yun essence ng business at yun pinagaralan ko, naging mas interested ako and siyempre, may plans for the future, ibang venture naman.. =)
At sana kung matuloy yun, sana maging successful din yun. hehe Siyempre like ko pa din computers, pero parang patas na ata sila. =)
Sana lang, I can bring the same success in the next biz I will have.. In my own way.
My destiny.
Team Member
I already forgot how many teams I've been.. Different TL's, then different team mates and of course, different companies. Still, I am the one left in the end... To tell you the truth, I've never requested to change teams unless well, what the client/company needs or what they feel best for me or I don't know for the team? I don't think so. hehe
I've witness my former teams disbanded not because of behavor but most of it, stats wise. It's better to disband the team due to oh well, poor stats. I've seen also, teams that I joined became successful. Despite the poor start, of course, we end up victorious! =) And yes, between those times, we are doing all our best to succeed, reach goals and most importantly, to do what's best for the team.. =)
Sadly, even you do have the success, in the end, changes do happen. You'll end up in a new team or worse, I left due to personal reasons.. =(
With all my experiences to those teams, its always them, so how am I for the team? Who is Alfred in a team?
First, yes, I can say very quiet.. I just say something when needed or make fun to those jokes or shootouts.. Or I answer only when I was asked something. Even taking calls, they are surprised that I am already taking calls which my voice is not really too loud. Surprised that I am working in a call center with a very low voice. Especially when I'm tired already. hehe
I am also quite shy.. Yes, indeed.. Maybe because in all the teams I've joined, I am the only guy in the team, then the rest are girls, and yes gays or lesbians. hehe Not all the time, but most of the time, it's like we are only 2 guys in a team. If lucky, 3 guys in the team, like the one I am into now. For me, it's natural to be shy in a team, which almost all of them are girls. Unlike in college, even we are like 10 solid dudes, that's fine, we have a group! Not in my teams..
Third, I am well, cooperative. Even with all the hate in the team or divided in a certain topic, then in the end even I don't like that concept or plan, well, go for it! Besides, we will all fail or pass if it went through! hehe You cannot blame yourself only because of course, it's a team effort.
I give all the effort I can do to reach that goal for the team, doing my best even it is necessary to change my style or how I work, as long it is for the team.
Fifth, I am receptive to feedback. I know I'm right or wrong, well, I just accept the feedback. Even it's a difficult pill to swallow, then yes, you need to swallow it. Sometimes, it doesn't help or most of the time, it does help! Besides, it helps me a lot to improve. I've never argue with it..
Helpful to my team mates, especially for questions about the process!! hehe Yes, since oh well, if there are questions about the process in the job, simply ask me. I can say, I know it all, what is the right thing to do, or sometimes, how to let's say cut the chase. hehe I can answer them even I'm taking other calls.
Easily dragged to team buildings! As long there is a team building, wherever or whatever, as long all the members of the team are there, gora!!!! hehe Yes, spending a time with the team, very fun and enjoying.. It also helps the bonding of the team, trusting and looking each other's back. Yes, even the team building sometimes, no activities done, just be present and have some talk about each other. Yehey!
Passionate to contribute for my team, I can say, besides of doing my best, I want to help them in other ways. Like giving feedback or suggestions or give what I can help to solve some problems or how about giving away something will really help.. As long it's for the success of the team..
Of course, with all of this! I can say I am dependable as well, especially if have some tasks to finish. I'll make not only sure to finish the task but also I'll do it good or better than expected. Hmmm yeah. I guess. hehe
Lastly, I can say, with all I've said. Simply I am reliable team mate. =) In times of down or the best times, I am there to enjoy and help to overcome the obstacles that hinders the team's success..
And yes, let's add, I'm quite boring team mate. hehe
I just hope that with all these qualities, I can bring it wherever I go or which department or team I'll be working for.. Or I can apply in my current business.. Somewhat effective but not perfect. Besides, that's why I don't want to be a Team Leader, because it's fun to be team player! =) Less headache, and more fun!
Maybe I can apply those qualities if I change my mind, to become a Leader. =)

TRON Legacy
When I saw Akihiro Sato or Jake Cuenca in that new Master commercial, geez.. Maybe their face should have covered black anyway. hehe Because they fit to become Tron, in TRON Legacy which quite surprising, doesn't show his face, in most of his parts.. By the way, commercial looks great at least for attempting the looks of TRON Legacy.
After the 2:30pm shift last December, I rushed to the IMAX theater at SM North to witness, the remake ah yes sequel to the movie that I loved when I was well, before teen.. I will explain later why I called it remake/sequel. hehe
After I saw the trailers, the posters or storyboards, I mark it at my to do list or important to do last year, I should definitely watch this film..
I was amazed.
The film starts where well, a dude who is the son of the original dude ah sorry, Kevin Flynn, the owner of the software giant went missing already for 20 years, is ruining the stockholders meeting, and yes, he was visited by his friend's dad.
He was informed that his friend's dad, well received a page from the arcade store which his dad owned before. The dude went to the store and found his dad's secret room and yes a portal to the GRIDD. Unfortunately, he was teleported to it and yes, it looks like ours. Except that the people he is seeing there are like humans but they are called programs.
He was brought to a place which has a head master called Clu which looks like his dad. Unfortunately, it was not his dad. It was the bad alter ego which looking for the original Kevin Flynn, something to do with the disc he has. So, Sam, the son has no choice but to battle in the disc wars, killing freeze bee.. He was good but thought of escaping it because of fear getting killed.
He went down and yes, lightcyle fight!!! It was divided to 2 teams and yes when Clu joined the team and try to kill Sam, the chick a.k.a Quorra arrives! Wow.. Damn chick. hehe She saves him and yes, escapes to a lone world which there was a house which the GRID can't find.. It is the house of the Original Dude!! Kevin Flynn, who is like a zen master.. Simple robe and just meditating.
He told the reason why he came back to the GRID and he just stuck there for a long time. Cannot go back because of the forces of Clu.. And the hero TRON also I forgot now with CLU, mind control perhaps.
Like father, but not his son, well, went to find the historian of the GRID to locate the place which has a power to comeback to the original world. Which is under the name of zuse (I thought it was Zeus). Then, yes, Sam did find Zuse only to be trapped by CLU and got the disc from his dad, because well Kevin came to the scene to rescue the son but Quorra got hurt. (Damn!) hehe
Father and Son escape, Zuse was double crossed by CLU, and CLU's plan is to get the disc of the originator and go to the place of the power source to go through the human world and conquer it!
However, the son is quite stubbor, able to get the disc, go to the power source with his pops and there, they were followed by the CLU's gang! Ah yes, Quorra's left arm returned in no time because she is a special being which Kevin discussed, a miracle he saw in the GRIDD. Self healing humans! =)
Well, unfortunately they fought with CLU and yes, TRON was lost and Sam and Quorra got back, Kevin and CLU died after the final explosion.
It ends that Quorra became a human, a hot chick and travels with Sam in a simple autumn morning. Cut!
Yes, the only biggest flaw of the movie is the story line. Damn, they should make it complicated or what but yes, it was simple and surprisingly, I loved the movie! hehe
The story somehow they should have made it challenging or like inception but not that complicated. hehe I mean, they did answer some questions but they should like make it interesting. The story is like the Matrix part 1, the only difference is well the world did not end bad the world we have is a program. hehe
Some flaws maybe pacing especially after the first half which has more dialogue than the first half. Second half well, has more dialogue than action scenes than the first part. Second part though has more stunning visuals but quite short.
And Sam Flynn's actor, they at least get a recognizable actor. They can get Sam Worthington or Robert Pattinson or how about Andrew Garfield, well at that time he is not famous but because of FB movie, he will become famous. Or just James Franco. That dude rocks! hehe But the Sam Flynn actor, geez, it's not even looks like Jeff Bridges. hehe
What else, hmmmm enough of the bad apples! Yehey. hehe
Here are the good apples. First of all, indeed I was pretty annoyed with the Academy or Golden globes, that this film was not nominated. I can't imagine that having the old Dude (Jeff Bridges, is the Dude in big lebowski) talking or doing a scene with a computer generated Jeff Bridges in one scene doesn't matter with them. I mean, the CLU dude doing his scenes alone is great, you can't tell his computer generated. How about his old self talking to you? That's marvelous in the own right! Damn.. The film also looks good in 3D. My 400 bucks is worth watching this than 350 bucks watching the Alice in damn wonderland. Great oh yes, Alice was nominated.
The scenes were astounding especially the title sequences, the footages of Jeff Bridges when his son was still young. The disc fights, the lightcycles, the set up of it, even the ships, wow! hehe And the one I like is the transformations, from the cycles and the one I really like, when the CLU's gang transforms to a jet. Damn awesome. My eyes and me got fascinated!
The actors, of course, without them, well, it's not worth of 400 bucks like Alice.. Of course, from let's say the TRON which did not speak in the movie, but how he looks and action sequences, another candidate for Cyber Ninja in MGS. hehe I think give the Sam Flynn credit dude a credit. Good thing. hehe The program soldiers, even CLU's right hand, funny. How about Martin Sheen as Zuse? He pulled off a Alex Delarge somewhat role but toned down in a Disney level. hehe It's short but great performance. Olivia Wilde? I'll never forget that chick. Quorra, at the time she is in a scene.. Oh christ.. I can't take my eyes off from her.. I don't care what she says.. hehe Her hair, the suit, the looks, damn good. =) If Raims fell in love to her, me too! hehe
The Dude! Well, no need for decription for Jeff Bridges, simply great performance.. Not award worthy but doing the role and transformed it after 20 years, simply great. Especially in his final scenes with CLU. Great dude! hehe
This film I called it remake/sequel, because the story itself, if you watched the first TRON, it was almost the same. Even the events, it's just the same, they only changed it the parts where the disc and light cycle fights and of course, there is no Jet at the first TRON. The sequel part, well, it is already set up especially the first parts of the film and the ending of course.
I forgot, Daft Punk can make movie soundtracks, just fit with the theme of the movie. Plus a cameo! without his face of course. hehe Music score in this movie, rocks, you can use it if you have dance parties! hehe
Another drawback well, it's a Disney drawback, the story I can say can go dark and complicated but unfortunately, since it's Disney, they want to have the kids watch it and GP crowd.. You can't blame Disney perhaps but yeah, kid's brand. Erghhh..
It was a great movie, definitely, one of the best for the last year. It was hard to choose between inception or TRON Legacy, I'll go for inception because it's original even it's very confusing..
However, that's the only advantage I can see versus TRON Legacy..
Cool movie.. Visually stunning and yes, I like this I guess than Avatar. hehe

A day of Red
Yes, it was a day of bloody red.. Even me I wore a red for our team theme of the day.
Indeed, a day of love.. Romance.. Passion or even yes, the day where couples be together on such a sweet day.
And yes, I am single.. =)
Happy? Well, I can say in a personal note yes, but in a relationship side, nah, I want to be with someone on that day.. I tried to invite somebody but oh well, this day is not for me. =(
Did I do something special that day? I can say, yes.. But I'll keep it secret.. Besides, they already got it..
I was quite envy for those messengers who bring a bouquet of flowers to some offices. Some not only flowers, but gifts! How sweet for those dudes. Or maybe they are sweet in Valentine's day.
It was a boring day for me, and I was busy after going work, well, went to the shop and as usual, do the usual grind..
If you are going to ask what love is... I cannot say it was.. Because love never ends.
Being in love means to me, well, I can say when I wake up in the morning inspired to do things, not only for me, or Him, family.. But the reason you wake up for someone, someone that makes you happy.. Someone that understands you.. Someone makes you smile even after a day of struggle or hard work, or like me, tired.. Someone depends on you and say thank you, love you..
Someone, makes my life worth living for.. Someone you want to be with every moment in your lives.. Your dear lives..
Someone simply makes you smile..
Geez, I wonder, who will that be?
Damn, I just can't wait.. =)
I just can't wait, to say those 3 words to that lady..
The question is, when?
Definitely, not in this day. Not yet.. I do love the color Red. Perhaps..
"I can be anything you want to be
I just wanna love you
Show you exactly what you mean to me
Honey, let me love you"

Fine
It was her birthday 2 days ago. I can't believe that after a decade of being friends with her, still.... I haven't see her at person.. =)
Yes, I do.. I haven't see her even once at person. Imaginary friend? I don't think an imaginary friend can send you piaya sa bahay. hehe
Ang tagal na namin friends, actually we call each other Bes eh.. Best friends.. At first I can't believe it kasi oh well, sa tagal namin nagtext or tawag, well, sobrang tagal siyempre may mga time na nagaadvice or asking for help na din which ayun, nagtutulungan kami. Friends, hmmm doesn't mean not only to see each other and like helping out.. I know that some friends doesn't need na nakikita mo lagi, ang important is the communication between you.. Doesn't matter how far or gap between us, we just well, have fun talking and share each other lives..
Hmmmm she was introduced to me by my friend in college, text mates.. Naks, I was surprised na it was down south, not in LP or Para�aque, way down south. Bacolod! Hehe I have no clue what is that place. Well, what I know that time, near Cebu. But now, of course, the city of smiles and the famous maskara festival..
My friend well, di naka diskarte eh.. hehe Pero ayun, while for me naman, at that time, wala eh, kasi siyempre di ko pa nakikita saka ah!!! Pre com days yun so, I encountered number 8 and 7 pala.. Oh yes. Naalala ko pa nun, nun nabad trip ako nun, siya unang nakaalam nun. hehe
Then, yes, one of the reasons I survived my college life is her as well.. I mean from advices, yun diskarte lalo na sa girls, hehe and life after school na din. Pero more on advices siya eh. Saka sweet din ha! =)
If you are going to ask, are there efforts na magmeet? Of course! Kaso ayun, minamalas. hehe I mean, kung kailan nakaplano, di ako natuloy. Nung nandito siya for one day, di niya nasabi, nasabi niya nung umalis na siya. hehe
Ayos di ba... Then yeah, daan na lang sa net or letters or text na lang on how we communicate, sometimes calling her or she calls me..
It was fast 10 years.. Geez, caught me off guard but oh well, I never thought those 10 years with the same friendship I have from her..
Ah siyempre, may family na siya, and me? Nothing, same. hehe Yes, I can't believe her name, is indeed.. The title itself. =)
Parang pangalan pa lang, kampante na ko makausap siya. hehe Pero minsan hindi, kasi mainitin ang ulo. Joke Bes! hehe
Anyway, for now what I can say is I hope that everything will be Fine as sunshine as our friendship goes.. I hope it will last longer and yes, the only thing I wish is just to see her, even once. Para naman to thank her for the friendship and company as well.. And to see a lovely woman. Yes, you check naman sa FB ko, kung standards, malamang pasado na sa kin kaso yun lang. Di kami nagmeet dati, siguro naging kami pero nah.. Destiny dictates, best of friends lang kami. hehe
At kung naging kami, siguro marunong ako magbisaya. haha
I wish you luck Bes and take care always lalo na may family kana.. God bless always.. And I do really hope.. Just grant my wish to see you at least once, even in my lifetime.. Thanks for everything. Longer friendship.. =)
And yes, free trip sa Bacolod! hehe
More free piayaya!!!! Bwahaha
Yes, I do.. I haven't see her even once at person. Imaginary friend? I don't think an imaginary friend can send you piaya sa bahay. hehe
Ang tagal na namin friends, actually we call each other Bes eh.. Best friends.. At first I can't believe it kasi oh well, sa tagal namin nagtext or tawag, well, sobrang tagal siyempre may mga time na nagaadvice or asking for help na din which ayun, nagtutulungan kami. Friends, hmmm doesn't mean not only to see each other and like helping out.. I know that some friends doesn't need na nakikita mo lagi, ang important is the communication between you.. Doesn't matter how far or gap between us, we just well, have fun talking and share each other lives..
Hmmmm she was introduced to me by my friend in college, text mates.. Naks, I was surprised na it was down south, not in LP or Para�aque, way down south. Bacolod! Hehe I have no clue what is that place. Well, what I know that time, near Cebu. But now, of course, the city of smiles and the famous maskara festival..
My friend well, di naka diskarte eh.. hehe Pero ayun, while for me naman, at that time, wala eh, kasi siyempre di ko pa nakikita saka ah!!! Pre com days yun so, I encountered number 8 and 7 pala.. Oh yes. Naalala ko pa nun, nun nabad trip ako nun, siya unang nakaalam nun. hehe
Then, yes, one of the reasons I survived my college life is her as well.. I mean from advices, yun diskarte lalo na sa girls, hehe and life after school na din. Pero more on advices siya eh. Saka sweet din ha! =)
If you are going to ask, are there efforts na magmeet? Of course! Kaso ayun, minamalas. hehe I mean, kung kailan nakaplano, di ako natuloy. Nung nandito siya for one day, di niya nasabi, nasabi niya nung umalis na siya. hehe
Ayos di ba... Then yeah, daan na lang sa net or letters or text na lang on how we communicate, sometimes calling her or she calls me..

Opera and Chrome
Noong nabalik na ang computer at siyempre naisip ko kung ibalik ko na lahat ang nawala.. Programs! hehe
Pero to avoid happening again na magloko ang computer ko, nagbawas na ko ng programs. Kahit Warcraft 3 nga di na ko naginstall ulit. Grabe tagal na ko di naglalaro ng games sa computer. Warcraft for6 months, NBA for a year, parang more than pa! hehe
Siyempre, pang pirata stuff nabalik ko na, better bit lord pa.. MS office kailangan, lalo na sa letters and tarpau set up.. Zune di ko muna binalik.. Simula nung nanood na ko sa phone, tama na muna.. Siguro pag ayos na yun bagong computer ko, at orig na OS, ibalik ko ang Zune..
Of course, the most important program I use everyday or every time I use my computer, the internet browser!
Chrome siyempre di mawawala, ayun nainstall agad.. hehe The other one, I thought of mozilla but since ang daming niyang toolbar at nagloloko pa, I thought of other browser siguro. Nah, not internet explorer. hehe May isa pang browser na gusto ko dati. If you check my previous posts lalo na yun nasa Dell pa ko, dalawa ang browser na patok sa kin! Chrome and Opera! =)
Before Chrome was launched, I am using Opera, as per Ivan suggest which is more interactive and less downtime or latency than Mozilla.
I miss the speed dial which kinopya ng google chrome. hehe At yun 1 click login sa page na gusto mo. Like facebook or multiply.. You don't need to type the username or password again. hehe
Except for FB, kasi ewan ko kung bakit dun lang sa page siya di ganun. But anyway, ok naman siya.
When I got the new version, still the same pero more sleek siya ngayon ha. Mas inuuna ko siya binubuksan kaysa sa chrome. hehe Saka simple feeling pa din, kaunting click, ayun na sa web page nag gusto mo.
Now, iba na gamit ko for the two. Since Opera ay best sa "login sites", so ginagamit ko siya for FB, social sites, basta sa sites may login. Madali lang eh. hehe
Chrome is for other else, from imdb, nba/yahoo, youtube, magicthegathering, movie sites, or basta surfing, sa chrome naman ako nakakadepende, lalo na sa research. Type lang sa address bar na kailangan mo at aha! Yun na. hehe Google search na agad eh. At of course, sa chrome yun ibang sites na I want to check it out and see if safe. Pang pirata dito na din. hehe
Ngayon ko lang nafeel ulit yun sarap magbrowse and surf the internet at the best with these two browsers. At sana of course, magimprove sila in the feature.. =)
Without them, jeez sobrang di na ko maginternet kung aasa lang ako sa IE or lalo naman yun mozilla. hehe Great that there are 2 browsers that I can depend.. and really enjoy my time surfing the net.
I can't imagine using other browsers other than these two.. It depends if there will be a new browser that will combine them both! Which I thought, it won't happen. hehe
Besides, panget siguro ang name nun. hahaha

1 at 24/7
I wore the only free Jacket I got from this call center career yesterday and yes, I can't believe, I am now 1 year in this company! =)
Of course, at first it was not easy, as you check my previous posts.. Damn, I never thought I'll reach this long. hehe Nevertheless, now, yes I'm struggling with my stats especially that career threatning VOC, I can say oh well.. 1 year kinda worth it.
Friday was the time of this 1 year journey, and yes in our batch, we are 6 but might go down to 5, it depends to some of them might leave. Don't ask me who will be but definitely not me.. Yet. =)
It was fast, I mean, I thought 1 year in the dayshift sked will be slow than the usual vampire shift! I was wrong.... It is more fast paced and quite lively. Even well most of the time, quite boring but needs to do the job right. I still remember my first month, geez, I'm getting high AHT, then very not helpful stats, and I feel like, damn, after a year of hiatus of work, it did show some rust..
But as the months goes by, I showed what I can do and it did help the team, except for these past months. hehe I can say, maybe these past months, with all the things I do everyday, I'm in a funk.. =( Tired, pressured and sometimes depressed, but not that depressed..
Good thing at this time, or my stay with the team, of course, I only had one TL, and same team mates until now.. Geez I thought unlike in my Dell or my past call centers, I'm changing teams every quarter! hehe But this time, at least, I'm with the team for a year.. Quite changing I guess. Curious.
But I should thank this company, at least I have an extra income which helped me to pay junk of my obligations, and get my other things back in the fastest way.. I was able to help my parents as well, due to medicard. hehe
I can say, we had so many eat outs or team buildings, very engaging in terms of how to put or at least know each other better. Even I'm not that close to each of my team mates, but when I'm there at work, it is fun with them.. Working, doing our best to reach the stats and outlasting other teams, it is a team effort.. It did show last quarter or the 3rd quarter that we get our top prize for the best VOC team of the quarter.. We are going to celebrate that on Saturday! hehe
We had some ups and downs, but I know we will emerge in those difficulties.. Especially in this quarter. Damn. hehe
As for the company, I can say, oh well, even yes, they are paying more, but in other aspects, quite poor. I have many examples! But it will take 2 parts to tell them all.. And nah, they are in my friend's list. hehe
One of it is the jacket. Geez. Instead of the usual, wine and ham, or ham, or xmas basket.. We got a jacket.. And of course, I fitted the one I like, it ends up when I got the jacket, it was tight for me. hehe How about our team funds.. I can say, my TL sometimes shoulders the team buildings we do! Unlike in other centres which the department has funds for each team at least for these events, unfortunately.. They don't give it, regularly I guess. But that's why I like my TL, very generous for the team... =)
I know my TL is quite not close to me unlike my previous TL's but she gets the job done. More than that.. Thanks to her, I'm still here.. =)
How about SME's, Mitch and DP.. Great mentors that you will never have in other teams. hehe But yes, with their guidance and help, well, I was able to survive those grueling quarters.. Except for this quarter which I know everybody in our team is struggling. =( It is not their fault. However, there are still there to guide and help us.. Thanks guys. =)
The team, Mhon a.k.a Gary V., George Estregan Jr, and now Machete! hehe Great dude! Faye, great chick with hmmm good singing voice.. =) The platinum VOCer, Sassy.. The vets, Mommy Ness, Ann, friendly Sheila and the realtime analyst Chelo... hehe Almost vets, Cy, Marie, Airene, Kissen.. Rookie Jerome.. and of course, I doesn't mean I forget the other teams! Thanks to them as well! Other TL's, Garsh, Faye, Tam, AJ and Mars.. Naks.. Thanks for guidance, aux 1's and waiving the lpf's! hehe
The other teams as well. Thanks for the camaraderie.. And for being my customers as well! hehe Yes, because of them, I have extra income, extra money to invest to my little shop and extending my market! hehe
Do I have some problems with 24/7? Greatly, not HR or their TP (the so called timeclock and performance keeper crap. =).. Well, what I can advice are just 2 things.. Invest in one building only for all of us and yes, equipment as well.. Workstations, facilities, please.. They are important too, especially in coping the client's needs. That's all. hehe
To sum it up! Yes, Dell still the best but for the second place, it's 24/7.. =)
Will I go for 2? Let's see at 04/02/2012.

OST
I thought Reality Bites OST was the only movie soundtrack I'll love. hehe Thoughts are wrong. Well, my ears are wrong I guess. But anyway, as I watch movies or just streaming them, I found some notable soundtracks!
Besides Reality Bites, of course, there is I Know What You Did Last Summer! Pop flick yet the OST is quite alternative, great fit for the dark slasher movie. Just the first movie. hehe
Then, there is hmmmm High Fidelity, full american cast directed by a british dude named Stephen Frears which directed later, The Queen. Great movie about listing the exes yet falling in love.. Accompany with a good mixture of songs from Velvet Underground, Jack Black, and yes, Stevie Wonder. Especially the last song! Damn, very lovely!
British movies, some of them crap yet most of them have good OST. From of course, 24 hour party people, to Control, or Edgar Wright movies, Shaun and Hot Fuzz, Trainspotting! Then others, well, too many to mention lad.. But it is, as long it's british, expect great OST..
Then how about Brazil, which I haven't finished it. hehe But the sequences itself have interesting music, and of course, don't forget the theme music.. Great. Blade Runner, futuristic and orchestratic. =) Scarface, since it's 80's, then the sounds should be in the 80's! Even well, the story about the great fictional mobster. 80's sounds has influenced many movies, brat pack movies, to Romy and Michelle HS reunion and wedding singer! hehe Too many to mention as well..
Comedies, well, I already mentioned upfront some of them. Let's add, 50 first dates, Walk Hard! hehe
Stanley Kubrick movies! Notably, Clockwork Orange and 2001: Space Odyssey.. Actually if you really watch his films, I think he also sets the music fits for the scene. Damn, he is so great of directing a film, indeed a perfectionist.
Action flicks, well, not all of them has good OST, unless hmmm James Bond films? hehe Ah, of course, Kick Ass! and Scott Pilgrim if you consider that a whole action flick. Ah I forgot, the Matrix! Except for the last one.
Horror? Hmmm not many.. Maybe the musical scores are scary, like Jaws but songs, I don't think so. hehe
Love.. Love and love and some drama.. Love movies, it has I think the most number of good OST. Well, Reality Bites and High fidelity are good already.. Then, there is Somewhere in Time, which yes, it has only one musical score but oh dear, I cried. Especially at the last scene. =)
Well, there are many but 3 OST's I liked recently, from love flicks.. First, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, I know the only notable song there is from Beck but come on, the scores there are great, quite clever and especially the "Row" track which it really puts a smile in my face when I see that scene with the track.. =) 500 days of summer, I can't believe that all the songs there are happy and upbeat.. Even the ending is really bittersweet, but yeah, almost all the songs there are upbeat and happy.. I still feel sorry for Tom.. I think we are quite the same.. hehe And Summer, let's see, if the one I thought resembles here will like the movie. Let her watch it..
And lastly, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World! Some of them written by Beck which are awesome! Then some of the songs, really fit the scene or how about the end song? Sweet and nostalgic. hehe Black sheep as well, damn great song from Scott's ex, I thought at first since I am not really updated with the music, it's from Metric. How dumbfounded I am. hehe But anyway, that OST is awesome..
Tron Legacy as well, no songs really but great musical score from Daft Punk!
And many OST I think I missed, and a movie I think best enjoy or you can say good as long it has great musical score that really entice you to keep watching and best of all.. Songs that will let you remember the film, even those bad films. hehe
Unfortunately, I don't have an example of a bad film with a good OST.. Hmmmmmm, I'll think about it first. Maybe Purple Rain? =)

unplanned 20
2 hours ago I felt dazed.. Geez.. Love month na nga. hehe
Kalimutan na nga ang Enero, naalala ko pa yun score ko last month. Well, wala naman magagawa si TL dun di ba? hehe Ayoko ko nga tignan. Di ako yun! Well, bilang na siguro araw ko pag di pa ko nakabawi. hehe
I am not sure my plans for tomorrow. Pero sure ako sa valentine's yihee... hehe Ayaw ata nila. Di bale, edi ibang style na lang siguro. =)
Gusto ko lang kasi maiba ang valentine's this year. I mean for the past years, it's almost mourning o nasa sulok lang ako, envious from the other couples. Crap! I hate it. hehe So this year maiba naman. Kung walang date, edi wala. =)
Stay single.. =(
Anyway, nothing new naman, besides of getting back the pirate days! I should get more blank DVD's pa to keep the movies.
What else, yes! Reminding myself of doing or executing the plans for this year. Nakarecord siyempre, dapat di ko malimutan yun. Yun kasi kulang ko last year, dapat nasusulat na.. hehe
Gusto ko sana sumali this Sunday kaso, since I have no funds para sa piyesa kailangan ko, baka di na ko makasali.. =( Crap... Baka yun next week na lang siguro.
Kaasar lang, some women, doesn't have the time to at least be available on 14.. I mean.. Well.. Siguro, sa ibang araw nga, ayaw eh, yun pa kaya! Saka dami nga tao. hehe Labo no.. Well, di bale, I won't give up. =)
Ah, sa shop siyempre, may mga aayusin pa pero siguro more in the money side na lang. hehe Yun ibang problema, madali na yun..
Ah, ayun, since valentine's at siyempre minsan lost sa usapan, time to watch some Star Cinema cheesy movies.. Let's start with One more chance. hehe Sarah and John llocke este John Lloyd? hehe
Questions swirling in my mind.. Will I like it? Is it fun? and after this movie ba, makakarelate na ko sa kanila? hehe I don't know what to expect but the important thing is enjoy watching..
Naman oh.. kala ko makakatsamba pa ko with 7, pero niyek, that dude is lucky.. =) Damn, sino kaya ang magiging next better half ko? hehe
The answer is taking some time, and I am still waiting.. I can't wait for it.. =)
Besides, I don't want to reach na 40 na unplanned posts na at eto pa din problem ko di ba? hehe

Questions swirling in my mind.. Will I like it? Is it fun? and after this movie ba, makakarelate na ko sa kanila? hehe I don't know what to expect but the important thing is enjoy watching..
Naman oh.. kala ko makakatsamba pa ko with 7, pero niyek, that dude is lucky.. =) Damn, sino kaya ang magiging next better half ko? hehe
The answer is taking some time, and I am still waiting.. I can't wait for it.. =)
Besides, I don't want to reach na 40 na unplanned posts na at eto pa din problem ko di ba? hehe
