Hay, naalala ko tuloy ang ating workshop kuno sa bahay ni Canis nuong mga unang panahon. Canis, sori uli sa banyo ninyo dati.

Inalala at inayos ko pa kasi ang listahang ko para kina AT at KG. Mabuti't narito tayong lahat. Kulang na lang, si size thirty-seven.

Ito ay galing sa tagboard ng ating La Diva: Cannot Find Server at kantogirl 6:11 a. m. | 0 comment(s) I had a very very miserable day last Friday. Some asshole stole my keys the day before, which got me worried a lot. (1) It had all my keys, so I wouldn't be able to just crawl home to my other dungeon, (2) I would have to request copies of the FC bathroom from the department people, and that was so totally inconvenient. Wasn't looking forward to it. It would have been fine if I were alone in the Dungeon, but I had a roommate to think of, and she just left a recorder so I had to make sure nobody gets it. That was Thornsday. Come Friday, and after an entire night praying to the God of Lost Keys, and I still woke up with no keys on my desk, I really became frazzled. I came to school really early in my attempt to fix things. Whoever stole my keys knew who it belonged to, what room, and what could be in it. So I crept in the department, and as I had predicted, people weren't too enthusiastic about it. I mean, come on, give me a break--it's not like I wanted those keys to be stolen. My brain wasn't functioning too well, and I was really on the verge of just crying. I tried contacting my roommate, but after asking way too many people, nobody still knew her mobile number. A call to her dorm said that she wasn't in, and there were notes for her on our door and they haven't been moved an inch. She was nowhere to be found. I was becoming convinced that maybe she really was imaginary. I left a message for her at her dorm and accosted everyone, asked them if they'd seen her and please tell her to call me. I decided that if nobody was going to help me solve the riddle of the stolen keys, then I must do something about this myself. I trooped to the shopping center looking for a new doorknob. Yes, I went doorknob shopping so even if the key thief went back and stuck those keys in our hole, it wouldn't work. I would be able to say, Nyahahaha! You're pushing the wrong buttons, nyahaha! But it wasn't as easy as it sounded. The first set of knobs cost Php560+, quite an amount and I didn't really want to spend that much. On my second attempt at the local hardware, there was one for just Php160+. I asked the guy there to teach me how to install the damned thing, and they tried selling me a Philips screwdriver, but didn't have enough money for that. I just got the knob and boarded an Ikot jeep. Midway, rain started to really pour hell on earth. I was sat near the end, and boy I was soaked. I opted to get off near CASAA, thinking that taking the AS walk would at least keep me in relatively dry land. But no... The short short walk from waiting shed to that covered walk really soaked me. But I was happy--I finally heard from Imaginary Roommate! She's back from whatever field trip she took and would be going to FC in 20 minutes. Yay! Meanwhile, since I had to keys to the bathroom, I went to the 2nd floor one and attempted to dry my jeans on the hand drier. I risked ridicule and looking like a stupid fool with her leg all stretched at a crazy angle. But well, it made my pants legs partially dry, so I can't really complain. It really wasn't one of my good days. I went down and turned the corner and was so extremely happy that the door was open. I asked the maintenance dudes if they could help us change the lock. By now, one of the department people warmed up and got a screwdriver and tried to install the damn thing. Except that the thingie connecting the clicker to the lock itself was short. Hardware Guy insisted that all doors are just the same size, but I suppose he just wanted to sell some. The original knob was longer, while the one I got was just 2-3 freaking inches. By now, I was getting scared that I would have to go back to the SC and get another knob. It was getting late, it's going to be a weekend, and I just couldn't leave knowing that somebody has the keys to our office. Enter Maintenance Guy #2, who passed by and got curious. My cheapie doorknob wouldn't hold. They said it was made for inner doors--bathrooms, maids' quarters or something--not main door material. He said he had another knob and it's from one of the other offices so it would fit. Those damn things cost php1k in the market. Geez, I wasn't going to pay that much for a f*cking doorknob. They put the new old knob in. It fit, hurray. So we had a new knob, but with only one key. By that time, Imaginary Roomie got bored and just waved the key ownership to me for the meantime. She rarely ever goes in anyway, so she got her umbrella and ran the hell out of there. So the case of the lost keys was shelved for the meanwhile. Might still have the knob changed, but not in the priority list. Meanwhile, my next hurdle was whether or not to attend the gala of Tatarin. I had not confirmed my attendance because something came up the day I was going to RSVP. We figured out ways how to crash the event. Then BnC's officemate R texted he's going to watch and that his ticket was good enough to accomodate us both. So hurray, hurray. Watched play, so lotsa semi-naked young men who jumped up and down and young women who moaned their way through the performance. I don't know why we troubled ourselves with the RSVP thing when they didn't even check our tickets. By the time the play ended, it was 9pm, and it had rained continuously during the performance. Got word from Tamadita that Katipunan was a mess, that the traffic wasn't moving. Even one of the actors in the play--the hot lola who turned out to be a man--said that he nearly missed the opening curtain. He was stuck in Katipunan from 230pm to nearly 6pm. He got off the jeep and ran all the way to the theater. Officemate R and I walked over to Balara and was just in time for a jeep bound for Katipunan. However, when it was time to go, the engine refused to start. We were asked to transfer to another jeep, and was surprised to find that some other people had made singit and now we had to wait for the next jeep. When we got in, the jeep took nearly an hour to crawl that stretch from Balara to Starbucks. During the trip, I told R about my unfortunate cross-city trek one rainy day during our undergrad years. I had to hike my way from Diliman to Manila just so I could get home after a very heavy downpour. I told him I wasn't up to that kind of torture anymore. Besides, I picked Friday to wear my heeled shoes to wade in the mud. Bummer. We met up with BnC and Tamadita in Starbucks. We had decided to wait it out, and the traffic didn't let up until past 2 am or so. And that's just Katipunan. The road going to Manila via Aurora was still one long angry anaconda of gridlocked vehicles. We decided to crash BnC's place, where we played Planet Hollywood while her mum kept on mumbling that we should get some sleep already. Officemate R crept out of the house sometime in the morning. Was still too groggy to even wave him out. But I could hear BnC giving him directions on how to get out of the village. We slept some more and had Spam for breakfast. We had reruns of Sex and the City for Tamadita, and then BnC's nyowa came by and we watched Old Boy. It was a nice violent movie. The Koreans have this thing for pulling out your teeth. Then we all piled into the car and Tamadita and I hit Sta Lu where we had a second breakfast of pancakes and bacon and sausages. I managed to catch the last train bound for Manila, even if it meant trudging over the mud in my heeled shoes. Got interrogated why I came home just then and I told my mum I was in no condition anymore to make cross-city treks when stranded amidst rains and floods. Today I just stayed home because I don't want to be stranded again. And after spending several SONA seasons getting stuck in school, I just try to avoid it whenever I can. So where were you people last Friday? Cannot Find Server at kantogirl 4:54 a. m. | 0 comment(s) nakalabas ako ng opisina nang mga 630pm. pagdating ko sa landmark, dumaan muna ako sa toy section, bumili ako ng 2 vw na model. medyo mabigat na ang dalahin ko- sa bag ko, may 6 akong bitbit na makapal na magazines para sa sideline, at sa kaliwang kamay ko, di naman ganun kabigat, pero nuisance pa rin pag may bitbit kang shopping bag, kahit maliit lang. sa terminal ng shuttle, nagulat ako sa haba ng pila. pero ano magagawa ko? tapos, medyo nakapansin na ako- mag-i-isang oras na akong nakatayo, wala pa ring shuttle na dumarating, at yung pila, grabe, parang manonood ng harry potter sa sinehan ang mga tao sa sobrang haba ng pila! nag-text sa akin ang nanay ko, nagbaha raw sa marikina. sarado ang gil fernando ave. lumusong daw sila sa baha pauwi, buti raw di tumirik ang sasakyan. yari, naisip ko. baka stuck ang mga shuttle sa marikina, o sa C5. umalis ako sa pila, naglakad ako hanggang MRT. kung stuck ang mga shuttle, paano pa kaya kung bus sa EDSA? awa ng diyos, maikli ang pila sa MRT. 730pm na. makakauwi ako ng 830pm siguro, puwede pa akong magpuyat para sa sideline. 8pm, bumaba ako sa cubao. kumakalam na ang sikmura ko. takbo ako sa jollibee, nagpapahinga habang kumakain ng burger at sotanghon soup. masakit na ang kanang balikat ko sa bigat ng bag na puno ng magazine. paglabas ko, maraming tao sa aurora, pero walang fx. yari. tumawag ako sa bahay para magpasundo. ayokong umuwi nang late. sabi ko, dun na lang ako maghihintay sa may shopwise. pagdating sa shopwise, habang naghihintay, lumibot-libot ako, tapos nakabili ako ng mga rare na hotwheels. astig! okay na siguro ang gabi ko. mamayang konti, nag-text sa akin ang utol ko. stuck sila sa marikina bridge. di na gumagalaw. maglakad na raw ako pauwi. putsa, malala ito. inisip ko na agad kung sinong close friend ko ang nakatira sa cubao na puwedeng pag-overnight-an, kaso wala. kundi qc, pasay at rizal. yari. wala na akong magagawa... nagsisimula nang magtrapik sa aurora. sa gitna nito, habang naglalakad ako kasabay ng madla, nakatigil na ang ibang mga jeep. wala nang gumagalaw. kulang na lang, lumabas si michael stipes at kumanta ng "everybody hurts." kaya ayun, nilakad ko ang madilim at marusing na kahabaan ng aurora. mula sa mga beerhouse, sa mga bakanteng lote, sa mga saradong hardware at auto supply shops. hinihila na ng bag sa likod ko ang balikat ko pababa. naka-zombie mode na ako. blanko ang utak. dire-diretsong paglalakad. sa tabi ko, bakante na ang mga bus. patay na ang makina ng mga jeepney. pagdating sa katipunan, diyos ko! nag-EDSA revolution yata ang mga sasakyan! teka, maling metaphor, errr. nag-Katipunan revolution ang mga sasakyan! nilakad ko pa rin hanggang sa pagbaba ng tulay. umuwi na ang mga susundo dapat sa akin. buti na lang, nakasakay na ako ng dyip papunta sa amin, kaya malamang mga isang oras o isang oras at kalahati ng mabilisang paglalakad ang ginawa ko. pagdating sa bahay, hindi naman nanigas ang mga muscle ko sa binti, pero grabe, nanakit naman ang mga joints. putsa, alas-dose ng gabi. sabi ng nanay ko, nagtext daw kanina yung tita ko, stuck daw sila sa katipunan. malakas daw ang ulan kanina. marami raw lumubog na mga kalsada, nawala pa ng kapatid ko ang cellphone niya. putsa, hanggang ngayon, nanglalata pa rin ako. buong weekend, inasikaso ko yung sideline ko kaya wala rin, di ako nakapagpahinga ng husto. pero curious ako kung anong oras naayos yung traffic jam sa aurora na umabot pa raw sa antipolo. curious ako kung ano nangyari sa mga taong naghihintay sa landmark pag-alis ko, at kung anong oras nakauwi yung mga nakasakay sa shuttle. grabe, magsisimula na akong magbaon ng supplies dito sa opisina para dito na lang ako mag-o-overnight pag nangyari ulit yun.

Cannot Find Server at evil wolf 10:45 p. m. | 0 comment(s) CLF, gusto ko rin yung libro na yan. Late last year, nung nagbookstore hopping kami nina Dennis, may nakita kaming hardbound pile na Php99 lang sa National. Kaya lang broke na ako by that time and he got both copies, hindi ko alam kung anong ginawa niya. Astig yung librong yun. Napakadaling sakyan ng mga sinasabi niya, saka fan din siya ng Strunk & White. Sayang nga eh. Tamadita, more or less medyo nabawasan naman na ang aking agam-agam sa pag-alis. (O di ba panalo sa tagalog? Hehehe) I checked out the travel agency na, and I just need to email W some more to see if puwede niya akong ampunin para di na ako magbook ng hotel. Pero I would like to try being alone kahit na one night lang. Para feeling all alone by my lonesome di ba? Saka nagmega surf na rin ako ng mga websites about Bangkok. Nga pala, lumabas na yung special travel issue ng Time Magazine. Naghesitate lang akong bumili dahil mahal. But I always get that particular issue, so isipin ko muna. Available naman online yung mga essays eh. La Diva, ayaw mo ba nun, "hot" ka raw? Hehehe.

Cannot Find Server at tamadita 12:39 a. m. | 0 comment(s) Awa ng Diyos, isa ito sa mga araw na wala akong hinahabol na deadlines. Katatapos lang ng matitinding campaign at presentations nitong nakaraang 2-3 weeks, at ngayon, eto, tambay lang ako sa opisina. Kaninang umaga, nag-revise lang ng script para sa isang radio ad, at ayun okay na. Inabot na rin sa akin ng isang officemate yung magazines na kailangan ko para sa weekend sideline namin, kaya puyatan din mamayang gabi. Anyway, pagpasok ko sa area ng boss ko para ipa-check yung radio ad revisions, napansin ko yung mga libro na nakatabi sa shelf niya- comics, graphic novels, at ilang libro tungkol sa pagsusulat sa advertising. Tapos napansin ko yung isa- "On Writing" sinulat ni Stephen King. Nanlaki mata ko. ALam din naman nung boss ko na mahilig din ako magbasa ng Stephen King novels, ano pa kaya kung isang "How to Write" book na gawa ni Stephen King. Kaya eto, pinahiram sa akin, at nasa 1/8 na ako. Astig! Maghahanap ako ng sarili kong copy balang araw. Basically autobiographical ang libro. Tungkol sa childhood niya, sa mga nangyari sa buhay niya na nag-inspire sa ibang mga kuwento niya. Di ko maibaba ang libro, pero may nabasa akong isang part na talagang naka-relate ako. "Writing is a lonely job. Having someone who believes in you makes a lot of difference. They don't have to make speeches. Just believing is enough." --Stephen King HAha. Napatawa talaga ako. NApangiti. Pero sa pagtawa na 'yun, ewan, biglang pumait yung laway ko. Putsa. Comedy. Grabe. Comedy. Anyway, okay lang. Tapos na yun. Isa pa, ang angst, motivation din naman. Vindicated naman ako e. Hehe, may Palanca award naman akong nakalista sa resume. So there. Isa pa, parang sa video game din e. Sa fighting games ng SNK, kung magiging specific tayo- yung tipong kapag kakaunt na lang ang buhay ng player, ma-a-activate yung desperation moves niya. Okay, bad analogy, pero ayun. Sabi nga ni sir Aureus dati sa class namin, once na naging kumportable ang writer, katapusan na niya. End na. So ang bottomline- hindi lang lonely job ang pagiging writer. Thankless pa. Pero yun siguro ang thrill ng trabaho. Okay, siguro dapat ko nang i-post yung "So you wanna be a Writer" article ko na hindi ma-i-publish ng NCCA. Pero in the meantime, tapusin ko muna itong libro...

Gusto ko lang magtanong kung matutuloy ba yung supposedly pagpunta sa bahay ng pamilya Diva para manood ng hentail sa susunod na Biyernes, 30 Hulyo. Pabusina na para hindi na mag-schedule ng kung anupamang lakad sa petsang iyon. Hindi rin naman necessary na yun ay isang hentai gathering. Puwedeng kuwentuhan lang din. Ano ang masasabi nyo? Cannot Find Server at kantogirl 9:34 a. m. | 0 comment(s) Christ! Ang slow naman ng stalker mo, The Diva, tagal tagal na naming pinag-uusapan ang iyong house and the Wife, hindi pa niya ma-gets at ginawa ka pang lesbiana. Is there something in the way you write ba? Sobrang tambak ng work ngayon plus deadline deadlines deadlines coming up so I don't know if I can make it sa hentai night. Also, I'd rather opt for Hitchcock nights than hentai nights after I spent so much during our last visit to the Q. xkg, don't worry about your bangkok trip. Go if you really want to. I don't think tamadita and I can make it to this August trip especially with all our economic activity lately. If you don't push through with Bangkok, we could always think of smashing ways of celebrating your birthday. I already booked Nicolle for Aug 19 for Divisoria Day to fulfill our early Christmas shopping promise. Also, I think Dennis wanted to haul our asses to Los Baños to grace his class with our presence. No word there yet. Ok, Los Baños or Divisoria doesn't sound like Bangkok. Cannot Find Server at a 12:09 a. m. | 0 comment(s)

So that puts her at around nearly 40 or thereabouts. O di ba? I mentioned before that the new book Fantasy Production contained a previously printed essay about Himala, but during the signing, she said it was an entirely different essay than the one that appeared in Geopolitics of the Visible. Yun lang. Just wanted to set the records straight. But my favorite Neferti piece is still her review of Killing Time in a Warm Place, which curiously also has "fantasy" in its title. If I'm not mistaken, it's called something "The Fantasy Secret of Killing Time in a Warm Place." Or something like that. I read that in Diliman Review long long ago nung undergrad pa tayo and I was scurrying and running around like a headless chicken kasi I had to come up with a decent paper for Issy Reyes' class. Before anybody out there thinks I'm a stalker, lemme just say that I'm getting my fingers busy while tamadita and a t are grumbling around finishing prison duties. So there. Also, this is for The Diva.

For my critique of the book, wait for my paper. since nasa topic tayo ng hentai, pumunta na lang kayo sa bahay dahil sandamakmak ang hentai ng aking brother. kung gusto pa ninyong bumili pwede rin. hey, i wanna get a copy of the original email about kris. wala lang.

It also mentioned Aquino's having had STD, as revealed by Aquino herself during her public breakup with former Parañaque Mayor Joey Marquez last year, and her affairs with married men. It said Aquino "deserved" the STD.

Don't ask me why I'm reading this, and I'm no HP fan. This has been recommended to me by The Diva, whom I had chanced upon on ym. Tungkol kay Kris Aquino, one of my former co-writers at the network texted me about the alleged libel suit against the network and the PR person in question. Ka-batch namin sa scriptwriting workshop yung PR, she was one of the more mature women with children. Kilala yun ni a t. I tried searching for the offending article/PR feed. But wasn't quite successful. Recent tabloid articles just refer to it as about Kris Aquino and Morning Girls, but nothing juicy and concrete. Actually for a while there, I was sort of afraid na baka ma-trace sa blog natin yung Kris Aquino issue because of what I posted some days back. Kung may balita kayo what this is all about, whisper it to me. About email being traced. Walang program, but it is doable. People forward things and don't delete headers. That's one. Another way is to trace the IP addresses. Most servers and site trackers have that, and that's also doable. Btw, napansin ko lang medyo nagkakalimutan na tayo about the 50 books challenge, especially since Dennis is missing in action. I catalogued our replies and this is the latest update: a t: Book # 18, Lion in Winter. 18 June. xkg: Book # 24, Fairy Tale as Myth. 2 July. tb: Book # 20, Labyrinths, Papa Borges. May pa ang last post ni Dennis. Actually, at the rate he was going, he would have finished the entire 50 books by end of summer. But he's slowed down. I'll upload the list somewhere para may idea tayo how we're doing. Jol, please refresh our memories: what does CBWDTD mean? I think it refers to Kris but am not sure. Saka nagtatanong nga pala si The Diva when we're all dropping by their house to watch some hentai. Sabi ko it depends on you kasi ikaw ang may kopya. Keep us posted on that.

(yung mga nagpapadala ng mail na mali-mali ang english tapos anak daw sila ng politiko na may frozen assets kaya kailangan kunin yung pondo nila sa foreign bank through tulong mo.) nakakuha yung kaibigan ko ng letter mula kay "loi ejercito" daw. hilarious sobra, post ko dito minsan. anyway, bakit nagta-thrive ang mga ganitong scammers? bakit hindi sila ma-trace? kasi web-based mail ang gamit nila. well, kung nagtatrabaho sila sa opisina, hindi na nila kailangan maging scammer, duh, pero ang point nga, ayun, kapag magsesend ka ba ng bomba, isusulat mo ang totoong address mo sa package? so there. Cannot Find Server at evil wolf 8:12 p. m. | 0 comment(s) Gusto ko lang i-address ang true confessions ng The Diva tungkol sa aming pag-attend sa porn launch sa Arneyow. Nauna akong dumating kesa sa kanya. Wala akong kakilala sa lugar na iyon, at bakit sila sa isang maliit na classroom nagho-hold ng mga events? Pero sabi sa invite iyon ay "faculty lounge" daw so sige pasok na rin at makinig. Unang-una kong napansin ay very deeply tanned si Neferti. Buff pa rin. Naka-sleeveless pa rin. May butterfly necklace pa rin. Kaya lang tulad nga ng napansin na kanina, may beginnings of grey hair na siya. Pero kebs na noh. Sa kasamaang palad ay hindi ako nakapagwithdraw sa ATM dahil down ang server ng lecheng bangko. So kulang talaga ang pambili ko ng libro. Until The Diva arrived and he got me the book. Pagkatapos nung mamang hindi ko kilala, yung author na ang nagsalita. Nilinaw niya yung mga issue sa libro. Ito ba ay sinulat with the Pinoy audience in mind o para lang sa mga puting intellectual sa States and beyond? Sabi ni Neferti most of the pieces were written here (sa Pinas) kapag umuuwi sila at least once a year. Pero bakit ganun, kung nandito siya every year, ni minsan ay hindi ko siya nakita. Correction nga rin pala: Sabi ni The Diva, we were her student FIVE years ago. Pero baka nga mas accurate yung six years, but he really said five. Nung moment na nagpapapirma na kami, she doesn't really remember us. Kung si Diva nga na naka--uno, ako pa kaya eh 1.25 lang ako? And I didn't really want to bring up the only thing that would refresh her memory: that I was the brazen one who was so "uncool" by being absent on report day. Wah! Ang ending lang nun, nakikain kami and spent an eternity playing stay or go. We kept on nudging The Diva to go ahead and approach her and talk. Sabi ko nga sa kanya, all it took to get him out here and make an appearance was because Neferti is here. Kung alam lang natin ito, sana sinabi natin noon pa that Neferti eats dinner at Mang Jimmy's every Friday. Hehehe. About the apartment: yep, homey siya. But it's quite a long walk at feeling ko pa nung umpisa nawawala na ang The Diva at di matagpuan ang sariling bahay. I like their furniture. Saka nga pala, he bequeathed me his minimal porn collection na na-fast forward ko lang kasi I realized the videos were kinda not outstanding. But do you expect from amateurs starring in Sikreto ng makati right? Ang masasabi ko lang, it's never a good idea to have yourself filmed while your mouth's full. Sa Boracay bomb: awww. I want to do something special (uuy) sa birthday ko. Got to mark the day I turn an adult. Feh. Kay GMA: I don't think natutulog pa siya. Yun lang.

"Mabuti pang mamatay sa Iraq kesa mamatay dito sa gutom," sabi nung isa. Yep. Tama yun. Walang choice e. Kung magpapakatuta naman siguro tayo, okay lang basta ba ma-accomodate mo yung mga OFW mo na madidisplace sa isang giyera na para lang sa langis. Otherwise, isang malaking katarantaduhan ang maki-yehey kay joe habang binabarurot nila ang Iraq. Tapos, di pa nasiyahan sa kaka-yehey natin, nagpadala pa ng contingent dun. Haaayyyy... Humanitarian contingent sa Iraq? Dito pa lang, di nga maasikaso ng DSWD yung mga child laborers, yung mga street kids, yung mga cases ng child abuse, tapos malakas loob natun magpadala ng humanitarian contingent sa Iraq? Whoopeedoo, GMA! Hindi lang pala si FPJ ang walang alam nung huling eleksyon. Naalala ko pa nung pinag-aaralan pa lang ng mga kano kung susugod sila sa Iraq, eto na agad si GMA, nagdedeklara na open ang airspace natin para sa fighter jets. Yep. Habang kumakapal ang kalyo sa tuhod sa kakadasal ng mga pinoy rito na may kamag-anak na OFW sa middle east, nananaginip na ng lumilipad na fighter jets ang ating pinuno sa ibabaw ng Manila. Okay, so kelan pa naging mas priority ang relasyon natin sa US kesa sa milyon-milyong OFW na ma-di-displace ng Iraq war? Sige, buti sana kung kaya nating i-accomodate ang mga OFW natin dito, sige, magpakatuta tayo sa kano. Kung wala tayong problema sa ratio ng job applicants at job openings, fine, sige, magpakatuta tayo. Kung may mapaglalagyan ka ng mga nawalan ng trabaho sa katarantaduhan ni Bush, sige, magpakatuta tayo. Binigyan ba tayo ng job opportunities ni joe kapalit ng suporta natin? Ano kapalit? Foreign aid? Maging honest tayo, naniniwala ba kayong mapapakinabangan ng buong bansa ang foreign aid na yan? Hindi naman sa sinasabi kong tama maging tuta, pero kung tuta talaga ang lider mo, ang least na magagawa niya ay maging praktikal. Hindi natin kaya magbigay ng trabaho rito, nagkakagulo mga tao rito, tapos susuporta tayo sa isang bagay na makakasama sa mga "Bagong Bayani" na bumubuhay sa bayan natin sa pamamagitan ng remittances. Hah, kaya hindi ako magtataka kung maraming mas gustong mag-risk ng buhay dun kesa maiwan dito. Tutal, nasa manila ka man o nasa baghdad, di ka naman sinusuportahan ng gobyerno mo e, 'di ba?

Sampung piso daw ang itataas. So kung p14 ang papuntang Katipunan, magiging p24 na iyon. Di pa kasama yung 4 jeepney rides na p5.50 isa, at yung tricycle na p5 or p15 depende kung nagmamadali ako. Kung magkakatotoo ang plano nila, kailangan ko ng p100 para lang makapunta sa Diliman at makapagtrabaho. Ang average na kinikita daily ng isang government worker ay p300. Pero sa totoo lang ay less than that kasi halos p3k ang bawas kada suweldo. So ibig sabihin, kailangang pagkasyahin ang buhay mo araw-araw at di lalagpas ang gastos ng p250.

If you want to learn about techie stuff, this is where you go. But they're not beyond encyclopedia and historical stuff. They also have tsismis. This has got to be the cattiest definition of Kris Aquino ever. As in! It talks about her illustrious roots and traces her showbiz career from teenybopper to Massacre Queen. Despite all this, Aquino is still best-known - and most notorious for - her troublesome lovelife. Over the past decade, she has been linked to two married men. Her latest relationship became a cause celebre in 2003 after it ended in gunplay and Aquino accused her lover, on live television, of giving her venereal disease, gaining her infamy.But wait, there's more: "When the very controversial issue broke out; when Aquino admitted in a Television News; that she had a relationship with a married actor, and that she was battered; and that she had been infected of STD; so many civil organizations had proclaimed her a heroine of women. It is so ironic because the honor should be given to the legal wife of that said actor (who Aquino had snatched)."Is that definitive or what? I got this while bloghopping and got to The Jason Journals. As he said, this is way too catty, if not libelous. But fun reading all thoroughout. Read all about Kris Aquino here.

According sa memo ni a t, Friday nights ay nyowa nights, unless you declare it block assembly nights several days in advance para masabihan ang mga respective nyowas na hey may block assembly so di muna tayo quality time. But The Diva, being married, every night is a nyowa night. So kailangan din ng extra advance notice so The Diva's nyowa wouldn't schedule any parties. Gets? Jol, ako rin naman commuter girl ah. Kung matigbak siguro ako at tiningnan ang laman ng bag ko, walang duda ang mga taong commuter ako. Exhibit A: The yellow prepaid LRT2 card from Recto to Katipunan. Exhibit B: The blue prepaid card for the MRT. Exhibit C: My Starbucket goddamned commuter mug na classic white. O di ba screaming forsaken commuterness? The LRT/MRT is still your salvation, Jol. Before the opening of the yellow line, I had to hike my way to Espana and get an FX or jeepney pag desperate na papuntang Philcoa. Or if I'm really being sadistic, jeep to Guadalupe para makapagMRT. Either way, it's an hour and a half to 2 full hours in jampacked hell. But since nag-open ang yellow line nung summer, napatingala talaga ako at may-I-sing ng Hallelujah. Walang tao ang yellow line nun, and in 20 mins, nasa Katipunan na ako, nyahahaha! Then again, since classes started in June, yung mga bukananginang de kotse sa Katipunan inaabot ako ng almost an hour from Katips to UP. Leche talaga. As for The Craft, I really don't care much about it right now. I vaguely want to do things, but I have no burning desire to kick anyone's ass. Feeling ko I'm just resigned to my fate. This is how it is. Originally, why I'm here in the Dungeon teaching is because I wanted to have my self respect back. I wanted to get my credentials and show those asses that hey, I can do better than you. Saka I'm tired of people there thinking na I'm all artsy. But thing is, commercialization kung commercialization kasi. Park your IQ outside the gate. O baka hindi lang talaga ako marunong maglaro. Kung tutuusin, I'm playing a more dangerous game now: My toy are young vulnerable, malleable kids who think they can save the world. As opposed to the supposed stupid masses who would just take anything the tube will give them. I don't know, man. What do you do? I never did like Ophrah all that much.

(actually, as a person who works with kids and for kids, i think i should be offended.) I have not so much lost faith in The Craft but I do question so many things about it and i am not particularly happy with it but heck, i'm still in it right? i am only trying to get now what I actually need. i am no longer this wide-eyed innocent who would take everything like it was the word of God. It is also about playing the game right. But when I think about it, i will still not take any other course or enroll in any other university. i guess, The Program is the least evil in a sense. jol, bumili ka ng prepaid na mrt card para di ka matraffic from makati to UP. low budget na ngayon ang block assemblies. may memo na lakarin daw ang fc to philcoa kapag pumatak ng hatinggabi. Cannot Find Server at a 2:01 a. m. | 0 comment(s) Notes sa pag-commute- (masayadong mahaba para sa peyups.com, at walang oras para i-post sa CLF, kaya dito na lang) Okay, hindi naman ako deprived na ngayon lang nakapag-commute. Unang beses kong mag-commute dati, Grade 3 ako nun. Tinuruan ako ng nanay ko kung anong tricycle ang sasakyan ko mula school pauwi. Safe pa naman ang panahon nun e, mga mayayaman pa lang ang kinikidnap. So diretso yun, hanggang gitna ng college nung magka-vw na ako. Yehey! Wala nang hassle ng pila! Wala nang risk ng holdap! Kaso limited ka naman sa lakad. Una, problema mo ang trapik. Tapos problema mo kung saan ka magpa-park. (Yep, kahit na VW, ganun kasikip sa pinas.) O kung hindi naman lugar ng parking, yung bayad sa parking naman. So eventually, nung makuha ako sa current work ko ngayon dito sa Makati, walang choice kundi mag-commute. Nung job interview pa lang, yung napagparadahan ko, malayong lakad sa opisina. At ang average na bayad ng parking sa isang working day, nasa 140 Pesos. Paano pa kung may overtime work ako? Yun nga ang irony e. Ang presyo ng parking dito, mga executive lang ang kayang magbayad. Pero pag executive ka na, may parking slot ka na sa building. Wheeee!!! So ang siste ngayon, mula sa lugar namin, sasakay ako, papuntang Cubao. Tapos dun, Bus o MRT papuntang Makati. Errr, nakasakay na ba kayo sa Cubao MRT? Wow, pare, sa Cubao MRT, para kang naglalaro ng US football. Paiyakan. Pagdating ng tren, akala mo puno na? Akala mo siksikan na? Puwede pa yan sa Cubao crowd! Oo, mabilis nga, kaso namannnn!!! Lamang pa ang lata ng sardinas sa lintek na cabin! Minsan, hindi na ako kumakapit kahit saan, at kapag umandar na o tumigil ang tren, walang epekto ang inertia sa'yo. One with the masses ka. Naknangsiopao, kung may politikong nagsabing, nakikiisa siya sa sambayanan, tanungin mo kung nakasakay na siya sa Cubao MRT station nang rush hour. Pag hindi pa raw, istreytin mo sa ilong, sabay suplex. Anyway, mula lugar namin hanggang Cubao, maraming option. Puwede akong mag-taxi. Na stupid. Kung kaya kong magbayad ng taxi mula Marikina hanggang Cubao sa rush hour traffic, kaya ko na sigurong magbayad ng 140P parking sa Makati. At kung kaya ko na yun, ibig sabihin, executive na ako, kaya may parking slot na ako. Ibig sabihin, kung magtataxi ako mula Marikina hanggang Cubao, executive na ako kaya bakit pa ako magtataxi? Isang option naman ang FX. 20P mula marikina hanggang P. Tuazon. Masyadong bugbog ng trapik ang Aurora. 10P yun kung hanggang Katipunan lang, sa may Metro Tren, pero lately, tinaas na rin nila sa 20P kaya no choice kundi mag-Tuazon. Nung magbukas ng classes, laging puno ang mga FX. Nasa gitna kasi ako ng ruta. Maraming nauuna. Kaya minsan, mapipilitan ka nang sumakay nung mga lumang orange na bus ng Marikina. Diretso man ng Ayala yun, bumababa na ako sa Katipunan. Una, di kasi aircon, at kung di aircon ang sasakyan mo, impiyerno ang buhay kung ma-stuck ka sa rush-hour traffic ng Aurora. Mula P. Tuazon, bus na yun diretso sa Ayala. Kung sa Katipunan ako bumaba, Metro Tren hanggang Araneta, tapos bus na diretso sa Ayala. Sabi ng tatay ko, mag-MRT na lang ako papunta at pauwi kasi mas safe. Yep. Wala namang nanghoholdap sa MRT, at sus, kung may manghipo man sa akin, grabe, masyado nang weirdo fetish nun, kaso, putsa naman, dodoble ang dami ng uban ko sa pagpila papunta, pauwi. Actually, triple siguro kung papunta dahil nga sa stress ng Cubao MRT station! Kaya ayun, bus na lang papunta. Wala namang problema, isang beses lang nung biglang mangamoy tae sa loob ng bus. E aircon pa man din. Lahat ng tao nakatakip yung ilong. May mga bumaba. Yung konduktor naman, ayaw pa umandar. Wala namang tumae sa loob ng bus. Di naman siguro utot yun, susmaryosep- ang potent naman nun! Mula Ortigas ilalim hanggang Guadalupe amoy tae, tapos nawala, nangamoy ihi naman. Syet, iniisip ko na lang na sana di kumapit sa'kin yung amoy... Dati pag pauwi, bus din diretso Cubao, tapos FX. Kaso masyadong matagal ang biyahe. Suwapang kasi madalas ang mga bus e. Ilang mall ba meron mula Ayala hanggang Araneta Center? Bawat mall, titigil ang bus dun nang 10-20 minuto depende kung gaano kasuwapang ang driver. Tipong maraming tao sa bus stop, pero walang sumasakay, tapos ayun, naghihintay pa rin. So ilang minuto yun? Tapos idagdag mo pa ang trapik. Pinakamalalang experience ko sa pag-commute- lumabas ako ng opisina. Nagtataka ako dahil sa di malamang dahilan, walang bus sa Ayala. Kaya ayun, puno ng tao ang mga bus stops. NAisip ko tuloy, lakarin ko na lang hanggang dulo, baka may masakyan ako dun. Madalas kasi, maraming bumababa sa area ng GLorietta. Pagdating dun, wala. Sige, libot ako sa mall, paglabas ko wala. E puyat pa man din ako kagabi, at medyo natutuwa dahil maaga-aga ako nakalabas. Lintek, naglalakad ako na parang zombie. Umakyat ako sa MRT, hanggang baba ang pila. Okay, tawid ako ng EDSA, nakasakay ng bus na may legroom para lang sa mga unano. Tapos, trapik! Bakit? Isip ako, ayun, suwelduhan pala nun! Syet, lahat ng tao nasa mall, at ilang mall meron sa kahabaan ng Edsa? Pagdaan sa MEgamall, SALE PA!!! PUNYETAAAAAA!!!!!!! MEntal note: Pag Presidente na ako ng Pilipinas, ipagbabawal ko ang pagtayo ng Mall within 2km vicinity ng isang major avenue. Mental note 2: Pag Presidente na ako ng Pilipinas, death penalty ang ibibigay sa mga may-ari ng mall na magse-sale sa araw ng suwelduhan kapag nakatayo ang mall within 2km vicinity ng isang major avenue. Pagbaba ko sa Araneta Center, wala akong masakyang FX sa Aurora. 2-3 oras na ang nakalipas mula nang makalabas ako ng opisina. Tumawag ako sa bahay, nagpasundo na ako. Sabi ng nanay ko sa'kin, dun kami sa P. Tuazon magkita dahil trapik ang Araneta. BAkit? tanong ko. "KAsi concert ngayon ni Boticelli." PUTARAGISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!! Nilakad ko mula Aurora patungo sa Tuazon. Puno ang parking Araneta Colisseum ng mga SUV at luxury cars. Maraming tao. Surreal ang gabi, naglalakad magkatabi sa bangketa ang mga jologs at mga foreigner na may mga kasamang high class pokpok. Pagdating ko sa Tuazon, trapik pa rin! Text ako sa utol ko, dun ako maghihintay sa may 20th avenue. Habang naglalakad ako, lahat ng mga kalsadang nag-i-intersect sa Tuazon, trapik na trapik. Lalong dumidilim ang gabi ko. Lalo akong nagiging zombie. Nung malapit na ako sa 20th ave., okay, naisip ko, mukhang di na trapik! Pinadaan ko yung mga susundo sa akin sa Boni Serrano, isang liko lang, nandito na yung mga yun. Pagpasok ko ng 20th ave... ISANG POLITICAL RALLY!!!! Wheeeeeee!!!! NAkaharang ang kalsada, walang makalabas. walang makapasok! Naisip ko tuloy na mamaya pag-uwi, titingnan ko ang horoscope ko sa dyaryo, kung bad luck ako ngayon o ano. Ano ba ang chance na magkasabay-sabay ang mga pahirap sa commuter sa isang araw? Payday,Mall Sale, Concert, Rally... Naglakad pa ako hanggang sa gitna ng Tuazon, dun ako nagpadaan sa Mc Do dun. Lumabas ako ng opisina nang 5:30pm, nakauwi ako nang 11:00pm. Makalipas ang ilang araw, sinabihan ako ng kasama ko na may sakayan daw ng shuttle sa may Landmark. Okay, solb. Mahaba man ang pila minsan, di naman kasinghaba ng sa may BIR dati, so okay lang. Dati 2 oras ako pauwi, ngayon, 1 oras na lang, minsan 1 1/2. 2 oras din kung matrapik sa C5, pero may legroom naman kaya ayos. Bad trip lang isang beses dahil amoy Durian naman yung shuttle. Okay lang naman ang Durian, natotolerate ko, pero hindi naman yung constant na amoy sa loob ng isa't-kalahating oras! Pero sa ngayon, ang pinaka-goal ko sa buhay ay maging executive. Dahil kung may parking slot na ako, pang-gas na lang problema... Yep, dahil sa rate ng pagtaas ng gas ngayon, sa panahon na maging executive na ako, di ko na rin kayang magpa-gas ng VW. Cannot Find Server at evil wolf 10:51 p. m. | 0 comment(s) Hah! I rule! At least sa opisina namin, nakamaong at t-shirt pa rin ako. As in UP get-up pa rin, with a bit wider tummy siguro dahil sa mga pakain dito. Anyways, yep. I miss the good old days. Syet, parang last year lang ang 1998 o 1999 (climax ng college life) pero mga 4-5 years na pala. Di ako sure sa nyowa nights. From monday to friday, diretso uwi ako. Ubos ang energy sa pagko-commute. Minsan ubos ang energy sa makukulit na kliyente. Weekends- kung hindi ako tulog, naglalaro ako ako sa pc ng yuri's revenge. (nga pala, dennis, nakapagdownload ako nung map editor sa yuri's revenge, nakakagawa na ako ng sarili kong levels!) Man, ang trapik mula makati hanggang peyups. Mas mabuti talaga pag weekends tayo mag-block assembly. Tapos, errr, ano pa ba topic sa title... a, yung quarter life crisis. Yep, I miss beer. 'Nuff said. Puwede akong tumakbo sa baba ng opis namin, at bumili ng six pack sa convenience store at magpakalasing, pero walang point. Nami-miss ko na yung Toma Nights namin ng mga tropa ko sa TK- yung pagluto ng sisig, paglaklak ng beer mula hapon hanggang gabi. Syet, dati naalala ko, nilagay ko pa yung beer sa drum nung tanghali, tapos binuhusan ko ng ice tubes (as opposed to ice cubes) putsa, langit... Yep, malaki pa bakuran namin nun. Sa bahay namin ngayon, minsan uminom ako ng isang lata ng San Mig light isang mainit na hapon nung summer matapos akong ma-retrench. Tapos putsa, mapait ang beer. Napakapathetic. Ngayon, nasaan na kami ng mga toma pipol? Yung isa nasa call center. Yung isa ewan. Yung isa rin, ewan. Pati yung isa, ewan. Nasubukan nyo rin ba tumambay sa org nyo dati? Lintek, dumaan ako once or twice sa TK, di ko na kilala yung mga tao. Yung mga ka-btach ko dun, kung hindi graduate, AWOL. At sa kawalan ng faith sa lahat? Amen. Tama. Life is a game. Basagin mo na yung idealisms mo kung ano purpose ng buhay. Parang SIMS nga, di ba? Ikaw bahala. Anything goes. Enjoy the ride. Hehe, malay natin pag namatay tayo, ang last visual natin, GAME OVER. Tapos kung may extra token ka pa, insert mo- tada! Reincarnation. Pipol, pag may lugar na sa bahay namin, aayusin ko na yung mga hotwheels at VW collection ko. Daan kayo minsan, inom tayo ng beer hanggang sa hindi na tayo makatayo, at sana asintado na si Dennis. Hehehe. Cannot Find Server at evil wolf 10:27 p. m. | 1 comment(s) I would like to point out some pointers regarding a t's memo on nyowa nights: 1. Fridays are not really nyowa nights. But it being Friday, I had already escaped from The Dungeon and the invite came already too late. Had you said something earlier, I would have gone there, since the previous commitment involved a not-too-savory-affair involving the Diva's former employer. Hey Diva, I have got to talk to you about this byutifool air shit or I'll be doomed to going to parties with contained air and belly dancing by the group's Marquise, although I must admit that seemed tempting. The belly dancing, I mean. 2. If we're going to make the block thingie more or less a regular thing, I suppose I can parly other, er, commitments to other nights. But this is a bit tricky since I had just agreed to keeping a Tuesdays and weekends only commitment thingie, but argh! There's always a way out of that. 3. How come I'm not invited to gimik nights on Thursdays? 4. Tamadita and I met up last night, although was tempted to walk away na because people only arrived nearly 10pm, and I had been there since like past 5pm, so I had to watch a CineManila feature, which I don't really object to. It was the most comprehensive and believable cinematic reincarnation of the "what if a young girl got drunk and mean guys took naked pictures of her and then forwarded it to a gazillion people," aka the Michelle Estevez Reaction. (In the local arena, Xerex botched that one bu going all Cruel Intentions about it.) There's a really funny bit about getting ketchup out, but I reserve that for block assemblies. Cannot Find Server at kantogirl 8:29 p. m. | 0 comment(s) Congratulations, we're now having a midlife crisis. Or quarterlife, or whatever. Hey Diva, you're not alone. I've been having that stagnant feeling for some time. I know I said I was going to hack this teaching shit so I can be good and righteous and do something for this country and all that blah. But who am I kidding? I miss my goddamn paycheck! You know this feeling intensifies when your sneaker soles are busted and suddenly you think, Fuck, why am I busting my arches by wearing high heeled shoes when I can be so comfy in tsinelas and sneakers? Then your sneakers die on you and your other running shoes are like 4 years old, and you think, do I buy myself 4k sneakers or do I get flats which I can wear to class? Fuck. I don't know about the party atmosphere though. I was never very social in college and though I sank deep into it after, I never really felt comfy either. I just like hanging out and talking all deep shit about Disney or the next Coke commercial or whatever. But I swear if you use something highfaluting like "hegemony" and "state apparatus" in the same sentence, me and Butasnachucks will kill you. I really wasn't a quill person. I can also take them one or two at a time, but more than that, I'll be dead swimming. I don't know what is it about them either. But some of them are okay. I also think peer pressure doesn't stop with graduation. People form tribes, and have loyalties to their tribes. If somebody new came along and tried to get into that group, that person will get shunned. Maybe not all the time, and maybe people will be grudgingly accepting and all, but generally, nah. I'm not really sure if we're like this because "The Program" fucked us up. It sounds very AA, this "program.' And Diva, "the masters" know there's something wrong. We've had meetings trying to solve the problem. Apparently, the impression that program people (both students and faculty) exude that unreachable air. You know, distant and pretentious, lazy and insolent and all. And that yeah, people graduate without even the capacity to write plain correspondence. How's that ei? Also, please forgive me for making long rambling sentences which wouldn't pass my own evaluation if you submit this to me. I went here to post and ask people why they're so quiet, and here we go. PS. Hey Diva, I get lost too, whenever I drop by Dennis' blog. I don't know the authors and ideas he rambles about half the time. I am so not into Oriental and Third World lit. I read what I can, but not as much as he does. Another minor grievance: I opened my mailbox and there's this one liner from the supposed former mentor. I had mass sent out this email about ducks and he goes back to me with "hi j, kamusta na," smilies and all. What am I supposed to say? Drop him a million pound email rambling about events of the year past? Cannot Find Server at kantogirl 8:05 p. m. | 0 comment(s) Here is a memo on the memos. Last friday, being a nyowa night, jessel was absent from the usual block bantering. Arlyn, Dennis, and I had dinner at Likha Diwa then walked back to FC so that Dennis can go off screaming Hector in the dark. from time to time, we talked about the dead unrecognizable names Dennis posts in his blogs but last Friday was more about Labaw Donggon and Rizal and Bonifacio. Wow, memories.Got home a little after midnight with my toes sore because of my funny socks and because of walking all the way from FC to Philcoa. Jol, Nathan, block assemblies can be scheduled on Fridays provided that an early memo countering nyowa night is provided. Thursday is gimik night but it seems to only apply to me and Arlyn. I thought the Panitikabataan was interesting. The students spewing jargon and all and the teachers shooting them down. During our undergrad years, I've never been big on theory. probably because i got crappy teachers who tell me to unlearn what i have learned. (duh?!) but i think it is all exciting now especially with my project to make chaka the novels of Carla Pacis for my feminist theory class. but that mean i got to catch up with my theories and all.

Ibang Klase Ito! Review ng Chicken Fillet Sandwich... So isang gabi, nagtext sa akin yung mga kasama ko sa bahay, magsosoli daw sila ng VCD, baka gusto ko sumabay pauwi. Okay, naisip ko, may dala namang sasakyan yung mga yun kaya di na ako maglalakad mula sa stop hanggang sa bahay. Tapos, dahil nasa bayan na rin ako mamaya, puwede pa ako magmiryenda habang naghihintay. Matagal-tagal na rin akong di nakakakain sa fast food, wala kasing malapit sa opisina namin. At yun nga, matapos ang isang oras na pakikipagsiksikan sa shuttle papuntang bayan, at matapos ang isang buong araw ng trabaho, hah, pagod na pagod at medyo gutom ako. Bumaba na ako sa shuttle at naglakad- lakad. Naghanap ako ng makakainan. Napako ang mga mata ko sa malaking poster sa isang KFC restaurant- poster ng bagong Chicken Fillet Sandwich. “Ibang klase ‘to!”- sabi ng poster. “Sure, right...” naisip ko. Lintek, sa advertising ako nagtatrabaho at hindi na kakaiba ang paggamit ng exaggeration sa pagbenta ng produkto. Baka parang Mc Chicken Sandwich lang ito, o yung Chicken Sandwich ng Burger King, naisip ko. Dun ako nagkamali. Katabi ng KFC yung video rental na pagsosolian, so tamang-tama, dito na ako maghihintay. Pasok ako sa loob ng KFC, at ayun, talagang naka-hype yung Chicken Fillet Sandwich- 29 Pesos lang! Astig! Buti walang pila. “Good evening sir...” “Ah, miss, wala kayong value meal nung Chicken Fillet Sandwich?” “Ay sir, wala pa po e...” Okay lang, sige. Umorder ako ng isang sandwich, at isang large coke, errr, pepsi. Grabe, takam na takam na ako. Naalala ko yung commercial e, yung may nangungulit na kalbo sa mga ka-tropa niya? Hehe, ganun siguro kasarap yung sandwich, sa sobrang sarap, makulit. Hehe, at siyempre, may “peeeepper maaaayyoo paaa!!!” Tapos paglapag nung sandwich sa tray ko, tangina, nagulat ako!!! Isang complete meal ang tumambad sa aking mga mata!!!! Oo, pare, isang complete meal para sa mga anorexic!!! Napatingin ako dun sa picture nung sandwich sa mga poster, at napatingin ako sa actual na pagkain. Medyo nagngitngit na ako kaya ako napatanong. “Miss, eto na ba yun?” Napatingin sa akin yung babae, medyo napangit at napahiya, marami sigurong nagtatanong. “...Ahh, yan na po sir, e...” “Hehe, errr... bakit sa TV parang mas malaki yata?” “Ummm... e, ganyan po siya talaga...” Sa loob-loob ko, naiiyak ako nung inabot ko yung singkuwenta pesos ko (29pesos sandwich plus 19 pesos large coke, errr, pepsi), medyo naawa rin ako sa babae at sumama ang loob kay Col. Sanders. Ikaw ba ang pagbentahin ng isang nakakahiyang sandwich? Pero naisip ko, baka naman masarap ang sandwich na ito para ma-justify yung presyo. Pag-upo ko, nilapag ko ang tray ko, sabay labas ng cellphone ko. Curious ako e, ano ang mas malaki, yung sandwich o yung nokia 2100 ko? Pareho lang, pare. Lamang lang yung sandwich ng siguro, 1 centimeter o ano. Uminom muna ako ng pepsi para humupa ang loob ko. Iba ang pakiramdam e, para akong naholdap. Matapos ang ilang lagok, binuksan ko na yung balat ng sandwich, tapos naisip ko- kaya ko itong ubusin sa isang kagat lang, ipapasak ko lang ito sa bibig ko sabay nguya, pero may hinihintay ako kaya dapat mabagal ang kain. So kinagat ko, average bite lang, unang kagat, wala akong nakain na manok. Pangalawang kagat, wala pa rin! Kaya, huh? Napaisip ako, nakalimutan kaya ilagay yung manok sa tinapay? Dali-dali kong binuklat ang sandwich, at ayun, nakanangsiomai, ibang klase nga ito!!! Hindi ito parang pandesal na puno ng manok at mayonnaise na may paminta (pepper mayo)! Isa itong pandesal na HINDI puno ng manok at mayonnaise na may paminta! Lintek, kasinglaki na lang nga ito ng nokia 2100, at sa halagang 29 pesos i-e-expect mo na lang na at least punuin na lang ng KFC yung manok na palaman, pero HINDEEEE!!!! Napanood nyo ba yung pelikulang “Falling Down,” yung eksena ni Michael Douglas sa loob nung fastfood joint na pinuntahan niya? Gusto kong gawin yun. Sobra. Naalala ko rin dati nung maganda pa ang selection ng mga pagkain sa KFC. Baliw na baliw ako dati dun sa Chicken Twister nila- parang burrito o shawarma na at least ay puno na ng manok, masarap pa yung pita bread. Kaso tinanggal nila yun, at pinalitan ng pathetic na mas maliit na parang taco sandwich na bitin na bitin. At akala ko wala nang tatalo sa maling pagbabago na yun, eto, naglabas sila ng sandwich na kasinglaki ng nokia 2100 na hindi puno ang palaman. Rip-off na siguro yun pero willing ako magbayad sa sandwich sa halagang bente pesos, pero talagang 29 pesos ang presyo. Putsa, saan napunta yung extra 9 pesos ko? Sa isang pirasong lettuce? Sa “peeeeepper maaaayyyoooo?” Okay, bale ang kinain ko nung gabing yun ay nagkakahalaga ng 48 pesos. Sa halagang ito, puwede na rin ako makabili ng isang set- coke, sandwich, at french fries. Biglang naputol ang pagmumuni-muni ko- syet! Ubos ko na pala agad! Ni wala man akong naramdamang sumayad sa sikmura ko! Grabe, sana magpa-contest ang KFC, pabilisan kumain ng Chicken Fillet Sandwich! Mananalo ako dun, sobra. At kung ang prize ay isang taong supply ng Chicken Fillet Sandwich, mauubos ko yun nang 1 o 2 araw, tapos kakain pa ako ice cream at cake para dessert. At ayun, habang naghihintay ako, nginuya ko na lang yung ice tubes ng pepsi ko, at hangga’t maaari, pinipigilan ko ang sarili kong dumighay! Pag dumighay kasi ako, parang dinighay ko na rin yung 29 pesos ko! Pagdating nung mga kasama ko, sakay na ako, tapos kinuwento ko yung nangyari. “Baka naman malakas ka lang kumain, Jol?” “Hindi a! Err, malakas ako kumain pero...” At ayun, kinuwento ko na. Nagulat sila, akala daw nila, bilog yung sandwich, at malaki gaya ng nasa commercial. Bwiset, pag-uwi ko, nag-doble pa tuloy ng kinaing tokwa’t baboy para solb.
