Wake me up when January ends

really.. somebody wake me up when january ends...i'm still in a daze of the things i learn about.

i'm not going to be stupid enough to mention all (or even some) of the things i found out. if this is going to be the trend for me the whole year, i'm in deep trouble... but in the context of trouble that Harry Potter loves facing, as long as he can count on his invisibility cloak and the assistance of Hermione and Ronald.

A year ago, a few months ago, or even 4 or 5 weeks ago, the world was round for me. Now, i'm not sure. Last year, the Kings were racking up a winning season. A lot of my beliefs have been challenged, a lot of words have flattered me silly, and a lot of things have conspired to bring me to a realization that my life is not up to me.

silly me. of course it's not. anyway, in these crossroads, i reminded myself of a very astute quotation:

"In the fight between you vs. the world, back the world." Which makes sense. So i just go with the flow.

Somebody should really wake me up when january ends.

Which reminds me of my pending entries:
1. An exclusive blog entry about a fruit named Meanie.
2. A tribute to the new-look King, and reminiscing on how i knew them and why i loved them a couple of years ago.
3. My employment update. Or the lack of one.
4. An enlightening view in the battle of sexes as seen by a married man.
5. Oh yes, an extended testimonial to Paten the sphinx.
6. A revelation i never expected nor considered.

i'll muster the courage soon to start any of these topics. In the meantime, i'll entertain myself silly by posting nonsense entries created under the influence of red horse.

Crisis of confidence

prologue: I hedged against writing this entry but i guess transparency won over everything else. If i continued writing about just the good things, it wouldn't make much sense 10 years from now, as any offspring might see this and conclude that was a cheery person my entire life. --- We lost a game we should have won last night by 3 points. Led the entire game except the last 2 minutes. And what's worse, i spent the whole game chained to the bench. I do realize i may not be as good as the rest of the players, but i try to do my share whenever asked. I really felt bad knowing i could have helped one way or the other, but i guess the coach was afraid i'd do more harm than good. So despite being the earliest to arrive for the game, my jersey hardly worked up a sweat, and it was so bad that my water bottle got home untouched. I even forgot to bring home my shoes. A teammate took it home with him and joked later that it was lucky it didnt fit him. If it did, i would have given

Day Two: Diary of a Starfish

i hate Holy Week. Talk about invasion of privacy. What's so holy about that? One week a year and tourists go ape shit. I wish to God they'd be content to watch you in your natural habitat. But nooo. They pick you up, turn you around, and take stupid videos of you doing what comes naturally. Here i am, minding my own fucking business -- mind you, the harmless business of burying myself halfway in the sand, and feeding on plankton. For God's sake, plankton! microscopic organisms nobody would miss. And i do my part in keeping the ocean clean. Then these bastards come in droves during Holy Week. They crowd the shores, and they have the nerve to pick on wildlife. Harmless fucking wildlife that survived millions of years of evolution, only to be picked up by a 30-year old in an outdated Kings jersey for the sole reason he doesn't know what starfish do when they flip over. The nerve of the retro-loving bastard. I do what i do, what nature taught me to do. Survive. I flip over

Here's to a thousand hits

i wanted to write a couple of entries, but somehow the spirit is willing but the fingers are fat and tired. must be from doing all that weboggle. it's seriously addicting, and trying to reach the top 10 is somewhat of an unending challenge. try it yourself by visiting here . anyway, the celebration of the 1000th hit to my blog is too good to pass up so here i am at 1 in the morning writing an entry. I know it's not much compared to hits from google or yahoo, but having my blog viewed a thousand times is more than an achievement for me. it's been a crazy week at work with all the activities going on that i surprise myself for not being burned out yet. i do admit i'm having too much fun to derive some sense of fatigue out of it. Muziklaban is over finally, and it was a blast for yours truly to have attended his first concert with a special all-access ID around his neck. That means i can eat all the food i want and go to all the restricted areas without some bouncer handl
