50 days and counting! woohoo!
on another note, i just heard the funniest thing to be ever said to me the other day:
one of my officemates heard me singing along quietly to a song by the corrs from a live band that was audible from across the street, and told me this:
"you'd probably be good at karaoke. you've got the pitch and the tone all right."
mwahahahaha!! obviously, hindi nila alam ang tungkol sa ang aking extensive videoke career!
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
physiotherapy is good. hospitals are good. doctors are good.
i mean crap, if i had gone to PT to begin with i might already have been walking beginning of this week instead of just today. maybe not even had needed those damn crutches cluttering around my flat now.
naturally, having never had an injury before, ever in my entire life, i'm a widdle afwaid of doctors and hospitals, and come on, admit it, there's something that seems a bit painful about the word 'physiotherapy' itself.
lol. so that sucks. my foot has gone into several shades of the rainbow over the past two weeks. why, it was lime green just two days ago, now it's turning into quite a yellowish sort of color.
i should post pics of it probably and pretend it's an intentional work of art. who knows?
you know what sucks, when you're baking chocolate chip cookies, and you're trying to get the recipe that corresponds exactly to your own specific taste: not too sweet, not too soft...and you try so hard to find the correct mixture of flour and butter and sugar--whatever, and you make numerous unsuccessful attempts... then it happens! and you finally make the perfect mixture of all the ingredients. unfortunately, by the time you do, you're so damn sick of cookies you'd rather have brownies instead... haha. so you go buy that instant brownie mix in the grocery. choice! lol.
kung hindi ba naman distracted yung cashier kanina sa grocery. ni-punch ba naman as tomatoes yung dalawang mansanas na binili ko. shucks. mas nag-mahal tuloy. imbis na $2.80 or something lang per kilo naging $4.80 something. pero shempre hindi ko napansin kasi yun ang una niyang ni-punch. e binibilang ko pa yung pera ko kung kakasha yung cadbury black forest ko. hay. hindi tuloy nag-kasha. wala tuloy akong chocolate. huhuhu... wala pa ring sweldo. nuninuninu... may movie night kanina sa office. kaso kid's movie night kaya ang pelikula open season. pero shempre nanood pa rin ako kasi hindi ko pa naman napanood yon. at $2 lang naman may fish and chips pang kasama. yun lang ang ma-aafford kong movie ever. hehehe... bastos.
p.s. pa'no ba mag-store ng sibuyas? sabi sa label sa grocery, wag daw i-supot, wag isama sa ibang food...san ko lalagay 'yun??

siguradong isa ito sa mga araw na magagalit sa'kin yung holdaper kung madatnan n'ya ako sa daan. lalo pa't kakabili ko lang ng roasted chicken sandwich sa subway kung saan ko ginasta ang huling $6 ko. wehehehe... medyo nagulat pa nga ako nang buksan ko yung wallet ko at $5 na lang na bill at $1 at 50c na coins na lang pala ang laman! hehehe... eh pano nag-shopping ba naman kaninang lunch ng shirt na $30 at dvd ng amelie na $19.99. bale $50 flat. na yun lang pala ang laman ng wallet kong pera buong araw. so maliban sa $2.50 kong baby big mac for lunch, wala na'kong pera!!! hahahaha! buti na lang meron akong emergency money sa bahay na $50 na itatawid ako hanggang sa payday next week. mwahahaha! kaso ipang-g-grocery ko siya malamang this weekend dahil wala na rin pagkain sa ref. pati yung gatas pinag-expire-an ako. malasss... mwahahahaha...gudlak na lang sa holdaper.
una, hindi mo maiintindihan yung label kasi malamang thai pala. so hindi mo rin maiintindihan yung nakalagay sa seasoning packs niya. ayaw mo naman ng maanghang shempre at nakalagay sa instructions mix to taste so hindi mo na lang ilalagay yung mga maanghang sa ingredients. that is, mabuti kung ma-determine mo alin ang actually pampa-anghang na sangkap niya. so wag mo na lang lagyan ng kahit anong seasoning sana. kaso ayaw mo naman ng noodles na walang lasa. hay... penge na nga lang ng spageti... este...penge muna tubig!!!
 this is the jar of gum balls i won yesterday at the christmas party, on the "guess how many red gum balls are in the jar" game. of course, i can't eat all that damn gum. my jaw's practically numb from chewing all day and night. so now i am a gum ball dispenser. shucks. i should've thought of charging a dollar each. lolz... i'll be eating gum for breakfast, lunch and dinner for the next six months hahaha
can you guess how many red gum balls there are in the jar?
what i'd be doing if i were home right now:- wrapping and sorting ten million gifts
- last minute shopping for gifts for relatives
- watching christmas movies on tv
- having pointless debates as to what present to give to which person
- probably going to some of my parents' friends-whom-we-barely-know's house for a christmas party
- already eating noche buena food mwahahaha
- feeling guilty that i didn't attend choir practice for christmas eve mass (which i wouldn't attend anyway) again lolz...
- boxing gifts i'd already received, sorting them for reuse or storage
- beginning the christmas greeting text/e-mail/YM brigade early to avoid the holiday rush and network clogging
- playing the christmas cd while loafing around in the living room
what i'm actually doing right now:- nothing
oh yeah... oh yeah... *boogie* what have you discovered today?- booking rooms and things for trips is a pain when you have kids

ah yes. remember the times when you want to just shut a baby up and all you need to do is stick a pacifier in its mouth? well, i've found the toddler equivalent, for children 6-12 years of age. the solution is: google earth. dumb kids are just sooo fascinated by all the places you could "visit" and see from the boring safety of your own home. they're fascinated by the way the world turns when you zoom from one place to another. they're fascinated by the way you can find where you live exactly on the earth's suface through the satellite pictures streamed from the application. basically they're just plain fascinated. in effect, they leave you alone. and since the world is a really huge place with millions of sights to see, this pacifier lasts for as long as you could possibly imagine which is the best part. and if they start to get tired of it, suggest they find this fascinating place called "mount everest" or "champs elysees" or "south dakota", whatever. there's endless fun to be had. endless minutes of the children out of your face, asking you why you smell different, or why your hair is long. and you have time for more important things, like washing dishes, or ironing clothes or even watching tv while eating and not worrying about how your kids' food ain't chopped up properly that they might choke on it or something. and the kids are eternally grateful for your bringing into their life this spectacular piece of technology on this little machine called "the computer". in this regard, i'd like to thank google and the makers of google earth. hopefully, you can occupy the rotten bratty kids until their eyeballs pop out of their heads so i can get some actual work done!
