mardi, avril 27, 2004 Zombie, zombie, zombie. yan ang kanta ko sa sarili ko ngayon. hindi dahil sa LSS (last song syndrome, dummy), kungdi dahil wala pa akong maayos na tulog mula sabado. what's new, eh di naman talaga ako makatulog minsan. this time, gusto kong matulog, madami lang talagang dapat tapusing ibat-ibang bagay na may sunod-sunod na deadline. (masakit na mata ko, itutulog na ko pagtapos nito. tutal patapos na naman yung gawain.) My first week at work has been great. quite a number are LB-grads, and my unit's mp3 collection is the most extensive i've seen so far, considering only we're the only unit entitled to playing music, very loud music. what gets my goat is getting to the office compound in the morning and seeing the government employees wearing their colorful jerseys, cheering and playing volleyball and basketball in the Department's sportsfest. its my second week at work and they've been doing that since last week. the whole friggin' day. sportsmanship my ass. so who's manning their stations while the whole unit cheers their players? heck, some even loiter in their jerseysn, while we, the compound trespassers, err... guests, have loads to do and can only take calculated yosi breaks. ok, so that's the government for me. at least i know my politics. do you know where you stand? # gtz | 12:33 PM | lundi, avril 19, 2004 went to divisoria with three young shopaholics last saturday. we didnt even get see tutuban and cluster mall because the shops were closing when we got there after going around divi mall. the shopaholics, especially my sister, enjoyed buying tube and tank tops. akala ko ako lang uuwi ng luhaani, pero panic-buyer din ang labas ko sa night market. And after two months of not looking for a job because of other plans, a great job opportunity found me. i start a new life as an environmentalist tomorrow. may silbi rin pala pagiging beach bum ko. # gtz | 3:36 AM | mercredi, avril 14, 2004 I spent the holy week contemplating on Islam and the plight of Muslim women. i just couldnt put down Nine Parts of Desire, only during moments when the story was to vivid or i was too stumped to continue reading. the book is fact written in magnificent prose. no feminist theory has prepared me for a topic so serious and real. this book has affected me like no other book has. i did put down the book to swim at Pook (walang tao pool, puro nag picnic lang sa grounds) and drink with friends. play billiards with a crush from my freshman years, who is, unfortunate for me, married (sayang, di ako nakasama sa fishing trip nila, gusto ko pa naman ma experience mangisda. oh and, of course, sleep. # gtz | 6:07 AM | lundi, avril 05, 2004 Meron palang Resistentialism, akala ko sinasabayan lang ang panic at init ng ulo ko ng mga pc at printers na ginagamit ko. # gtz | 2:54 AM | samedi, avril 03, 2004 I havent been reading a lot for the past few weeks, and i partly blame this on Irvine Welsh's Acid House. naah, i dont want to explain, baka mamaya ako lang talaga ang slow eh. my mom sent me a book without saying what the title was. I got the book last wednesday and i felt that mom's weird sense of humor was at it again. mapipikon ba ako o matatawa? tatawa na lang ako. The book was 
Nine Parts of Desire: The Hidden World of Islamic Women by Geraldine Brooks. in other news, i have succeeded in throwing away a lot of the magazines i used to edit and some of my comparative lit papers/readings that i have keep in storage for a number of years. but i cant help but feel sad that the two dolls i have saved from my youth are missing from the boxes where they should be. oh well., i just hope some kid somewhere is enjoying playing with nenuco and tiara. and in the weird dreams department... my left eye fell out and i was trying to put it back (first time ive dreamt of this but it seems to happen alot in my dream-life). i succeeded in putting it back in, big eyeball and all, but not before a dog bit me on my thigh. a small bite but not small enough not to bleed. # gtz | 2:37 AM | |
