SUPERMAN!

i haven't watched the movie yet. kaya wag kayong maingay sa storyyyy!! i want to watch it now na as in NOW NA kasi my 5-hour break just started! we have no class sa isang subject which is sandwiched between two breaks, so tuloy tuloy na ang break ko! on the other hand, i don't want to watch the movie alone. hm. pano kaya yun? when will i be able to watch it? pati nga yung lakehouse eh, and i'm not sure if that movie's still showing in theatres i usually go to. hmph. school stuff kasi. it makes me hell busy these days. :

buuuut. i have a new fone! so happy happy joy joy na rin. it's not the phone that i posted in one of my most recent entries, coz i heard from some friends that the fone's not that maganda. so thanks to those friends who told me the info! :) i badly wanted a flip phone, but when i saw this fone (w/c is now mine bwahaha), okay na rin sa akin yung hindi flip. the phone's got a crystal case naman eh, so i don't have to worry about making scratches on the screen, coz it won't happen. :)

Hellomoto! L6 :)

i liked the phone because: besides the camera feature, it also has video camera! the sounds are clear too. then the fone has a PTT feature, yung tipong pwedeng maging walkie talkie yung fone! it also has bluetooth, which was one of my "requirements" sa bagong fone. these were just some of the things i like about this fone. L6 is also only 10.9 mm thick, which was what i really liked kasi pwede mo sha isuksok sa mga liblib parts of your bag, you can also put it inside your pouch or anything na lalagyan w/o the people recognizing na may fone na pala dun! it's because of the very thin appearance na madali na lang shang itago :)

so there. there. one hour pa lang nakakalipas sa break ko! 4 more hours to go! aaack.

after 10 years of not opening my myspace account, there i found a rather unusual and weird message.

*the following message wasn't edited in any way.*

Hi Jon~

I too reflect every night, which tells me that you have a huge heart and wondeful conscience. Something tells me I would regret not offering to know you even though you live far away- because you may be just what I want and need in a womans friendship- if we can communicate effectively. I don't give a care about meeting counterfeit personalities found with women in the clubs...I would much rather do other fun things within the city or just chill at home with good company-- like you. ; )

Sometimes I wish that women could be a man and see what effort and strategies it takes to simply tell a woman that "I like your look and would enjoy spending time with you-- not jumping your bones, not get married, not take photos, not move in-- but just simply spend time with you"!

Besides, why do young attractive women like you think that they have to party all the time and then wait until theyve lost most of their beauty before they want a serious relationship/kids/marriage? We guys want to appreciate having you in your prime so that we can treat you like a princess and then still love, laugh and appreciate you the same when you are old and grey.

I imagine that we could be so close as friends; yet I am not in a hurry to commit to anyone as I still am left with hurt from last relationship. Plus you women are not as innocent either as you were in long past years. If ever you had hoped that silly yet sincere, healthy guy friend would come your way- it's today-- I'm right here. We may be incredibly dissimilar in some classifications, yet seek the same. I cannot get into you if you are either stuck-up, play games or play hard to get. Those are not classy traits and are consequently a turn-off.

Well, I have given my efforts, so if you think our qualities border on the same level, horizon or planet--- and if you are as good with dialogue as you are charming and attractive, then write me an email or merely send me a contact number.

Respectfully, Juan

EEEW!! AS IFFFFF!!

FREAKY.

photocopy. - Pronunciation: 'fO-t&-"kä-pE

Function: noun

Etymology: International Scientific Vocabulary

: a copy of usually printed material made with a process in which an image is formed by the action of light on an electrically charged surface

photocopiers. xerox machines. whatever you call it, let us all thank this wonderful machine which yeah, makes copies of whatever printed material we want to duplicate. hands down to the inventor, he/she is such a smart person to be able to think of this machine which gives us much convenience nowadays.

but why am i doing this entry? maybe this is such a small thing to even consider thinking about. in our busy lives, who could even think of something which practically, doesn't concern our personal lives and which wouldn't contribute to our own future? jon, ang weird mo para maisip pa 'yan! true, but yet, i still am in awe of what this machine can do to us. can you imagine a world where at one point of a person's life, he/she would be needing something which should be duplicated, and fast? ang hirap nun pag walang photocopier. so let us all thank the wonderful machine once again (haha).

but what concerns me more is how photocopying companies earn their profit and pay their workers' salary. dala na rin siguro ng pagka-business management student ko. hehe. let's face it, as a business student, i should be aware of things like this. part-curiosity and part-burdened with responsibility, i wonder how such small amounts of money (paying 0.60 centavos per page) make these companies survive; and not only survive, but earn as well. supposing you establish a photocopying company, part of the expenses would be (let's make this a per unit basis per day para madali):

a) workers' wages. - one xerox machine should have at least one operator. let's say that the worker receives a minimum wage salary of P300.

b) the machine itself. - i have no idea as to how much a machine costs, but i think it's not that cheap to have one. if it were, then most households would have a xerox machine and having photocopiers wouldn't be needed in schools anymore. let's say a machine costs P30,000-P50,000?

c) papers to be used - let's say that a piece of paper costs 0.10 centavos at the least. assuming 100,000 pages will be used in one machine in one day (which i think would be impossible), P0.10 x 100,000 = P10,000.

d) ink - maybe we can assign a value of P25,000 per day in one machine.

e) maintenance of machines and other expenses - sige, wag na natin isali yan.

assuming a machine can photocopy 100,000 copies at the most, that would be 100,000 copies x P0.60 = P60,000.

from this value, minus:
a) P300 = P59,700
b) P30,000 = P29,700
c) P10,000 = P19,700
d) P25,000 = (P5,300)

a net loss of P5,300 a day. pano yun? i really don't know how the system works, pero ang galing pano nila nagagawang kumita. if i am wrong with my assumptions and self-analysis, please do correct me, i'm interested. hehe.

and i do admit that sometimes i am a dork. ;)

i just finished taking my online quiz in religion. i hope narecord answers ko, labo kasi nung system eh. wahaha.

adventure na naman ang buhay nung friday! i sat in rach's genpsyc class at benilde from 6pm to 9pm. grabe noh nakakashock ang tagal ng class nila! anyway, so there i was. my bestfriend told me that it was okay to sit in that class and the prof was super nice, blah blah. but no, i was scared to death! well, mabait naman daw talaga sha, but not that day. ang sama daw ng araw niya eh. so parang ako, "okaaay, what will i do now??" nagpaquiz pa sha! so ako din nagquiz kasi mahahalata pag di ako nagquiz! wahaha. pero in fairness, i got 16/20 sa quiz! hehe! wala akong alam niyan! may future na kaya ako sa psychology? it's a sign..haha labo. :D basta sa pagiging epal ko sa class na yun may syllabus na rin tuloy ako ng genpsyc! haha!!

the class ended 5 minutes before 9pm. rach and i immediately went to the lrt para mahabol ang last trip coz we still had to go to gateway kasi dun kami susunduin. punta kami marikina, at josh's place to have our youth group planning. but when we got to the lrt, di na kami pinapasok nung guard kasi closed na daw! so kami "oh no anong gagawin natin?!" to think na gabi na yun. so ang tagal namin nag-isip kasi paiba-iba ng decision. if magccubao fx ba kami (delikado daw dun pagbaba), sm fairview fx (philcoa yun so balik cubao pa kami basta kasi si ate ivy di namin pwede traydorin pag sa philcoa kami bumaba) or sa project6 (from lj's house papahatid kami sa gateway) or taxi! haha. so we decided sa sm fairview na lang kami then baba sa philcoa. in short, tinraydor din namin si ate ivy..hehe. sori ate ivy! ang hirap kasi humanap ng sakay! we already rode the fx ng mga 9:45 na, ang tagal naming naghihintay. buti na lang there was matt (rach's friend na crushie niya hehe) and his prof na nagbantay samin hanggang makasakay kami. thanks a lot po! :)

pagdating kila josh, yipee eating time!! ulam was the all time favorite fish fillet with the super duper over yummy white cream sauce!! mmmm. :D may palabok pa pala! sobrang sarap! hehe. i could live at josh's poreber! pano ba naman kasi noh rising star na sa catering world ang josiah's catering! yipee! after that, had some telebabad routine lang (haha kahit sa ibang bahay..joke lang mabilis lang!) then i went to the movie room at nakisama sa friends. after 10min inantok na ko nang sobra so i went up just to place my bag there kaso sa antok humiga ako sandali sa bed ni josh at nakatulog na. wahaha.

kwento ko na lang yung mga kinain namin the next day: breakfast - sunny side-up eggs with dalawang klase ng luncheon meat. hehe. lunch - pasta with white sauce with tahong and squid (SARAAAAP!) then the famous lengua/beef ata yun with sauce then rice! did i miss something? hehe. tapos merienda, my favorite din sa josiah's catering - spaghetti! sobrang kakaiba, ang sarap! hehe. :D haaay i want to live there.. :)

hey! i have a new #! ym me for the number. sabay nyo na yung # nyo rin. :D

why do people try to hold onto something which doesn't give them any certainty?

why is it that the only thing that can give you so much sadness is the same thing that can bring back your hapiness?

do the two really go together? yet they are so different..

funny how weird things can be.

is it really me?..

# random thougths @ 9:46 PM

parang..hindi ko ata kaya ng hindi magkwento about school. dun umiikot mundo ko ngayon eh. :D pero konti lang naman eh.

:: i think i'll be changing seats in accounting. i can't seem to absorb the things our prof teach us, pano ba naman kasi i can only see 1/4 of the lecture notes shown in the ohp. why? kasi natatakpan ng prof ko yung 3/4. hehe.

:: while on my way home, i had this strange urge to observe people. basta ang labo ng mga tao kanina eh. i waited for the lrt train in vito cruz station going to edsa. TATLUMPUNG MINUTO ang hinintay ko. grabe sobrang tagal nung train. so one middle-aged guy lost his temper siguro then sumugod na sa cashier. there he argued with one of the lrt authorities. kala ko magsusuntukan na eh. pero nakakatawa rin, kasi parang bata mag-away, yung tipong hinagis pa nung isa sa kanila yung lrt card na parang sinasabe "bahala ka!" then sabay walk out. kaya hindi umuunlad ang pilipinas eh. it's up to you to figure out why. haha.

:: pagpasok ko sa lrt, shempre siksikan. buti na lang malamig sa train. pero naisip ko din ang labo talaga nitong mga taong 'to, yung alam naman nila kung san sila bababa at kung malayo pa, pero ayun nasa tapat ng door. kaya hirap dumaan yung mga pumapasok at bumabababa eh. tapos maiinis sila pag nasagi sila. kaya corrupt si gloria eh.

:: nasa edsa na ko sa wakas. sakay na ng jeep papuntang bicutan. there was this lady in her late 50's siguro. kinausap niya yung driver kung pwede daw bang ihatid siya sa sakayan ng tricycle pagbaba sa skyway, nahihilo daw kasi siya. so of course hindi posible yun, the driver tried to help by saying, "sa sm nalang po kayo bumaba, lakad lang kayo ng konti tapos dun na yung terminal." but the lady insisted na ihatid siya with a matching "grabe-nahihilo-talaga-ako" face. pero while traveling, she kept on moving around tapos tingin pa ng tingin sa kahit saan, it's as if hindi naman siya nahihilo. 'nay, sana po ok ka na ngayon. hehe.

:: pero ito ang favorite ko: sa tricycle na. may nakatabi akong bata or nagpapanggap na batang babae. hindi ko ma-figure out eh. hehe. so there we were, malapit na sa aking destination. but before dumating dun, pumara yung bata/nagpapanggap na bata. and i wanted to laugh sana dun sa sinabi niya kaso lang konting respeto. hehe. kasi naman nung pumara siya, she could have told the driver na "sa kanto lang po paglampas ng (insert store)" or "dun lang po sa tapat ng petron" but noooo. mga tipong 20 meters away pa sa bababaan niya, pumara na siya at ang sinabi niya ay "mama dun lang po sa may PUNO NG CAIMITO." whatdaheck?! SAAN DAW?? super specific, puno ng CAIMITO! kamusta naman! tapos if you are familiar pa with dona soledad, it's a really commercialized road, as in napakakonting puno na lang yung nakatayo dun, at sa sobrang konti nila hindi mo na sila mapapansin. pero bilib ako sa batang ito, talagang yun pa yung tinuro kung san hihinto si mamang driver! wahahah. ang kulet. :)

so yun. grabe kahit sobrang nakaka-stress magcommute ng tanghali, masaya kung mang-obserba ka ng tao, maaaliw ka. try mo. :D

got this from my churchmate jen's blog. just wana share this to you. :)

we rode into town the other day
just me and my daddy.
he said i'd finally reach that age
and i could ride next to him on a horse
that of course was not quite as wide.
we heard a crowd of people shouting
and so we stopped to find out why
and there was that man that my dad said he loved
but today there was fear in his eyes.

so i said, "daddy, why are they screaming?
why are the faces of some of them beaming?
why is he dressed in that bright purple robe?
i'll bet that crown hurts him more than he shows.
daddy please, can't you do something?
he looks as though he's gonna cry.
you said he was stronger than all of those guys
daddy, please tell me why.
why does everyone want him to die?"

later that day, the sky grew cloudy
and daddy said i should go inside.
somehow he knew things would get stormy
boy, was he right, but i could not keep on wondering
if there was something he had to hide
so after he left i had to find out.
i was not afraid of getting lost
so i followed the crowd
to a hill where i knew men had been killed
and i heard a voice come from the cross.

and it said, "father, why are they screaming?
why are the faces of some of them beaming?
why are they casting their lots for my own?
this crown of thorns hurts me more than it shows
father please, can't you do something?
i know that you must hear my cry.
i thought i could handle a cross of this size.
father remind me why
why does everyone want me to die?
o, when will i understand why?"

"my precious son, i hear them screaming
i'm watching the face of the enemy beaming.
but soon i will clothe you in robes of my own
jesus, this hurts me much more than you know.
but this dark hour i must do nothing
though i've heard your unbearable cry.
the power in your blood destroys all the lies
soon you'll see past their unmerciful eyes.
look there below, see the child trembling by her father's side
now i can tell you why;
she is the reason why you must die.

let us all appreciate what the lord has done for us..

grr. mga tricycle drivers talaga oh. as i was riding the tricycle pauwi, shempre hinihintay kong makarating na ko sa destination point ko (7-11). mga 5 meters away pa lang sa 7-11, i always say "sa tabi lang po" para pag nagstop yung trike, sakto lang sa 7-11. but no, this particular tricycle driver was unique mehn. i was doing the usual "sa tabi lang po" habit pero he didn't stop, dere-derecho lang sha. so ako naman ulit "sa tabi lang po" with a louder voice. aba hindi pa rin tumitigil! so ako nainis ang ginawa ko sumigaw na ko "sa tabi lang po!" "para na po!" "SA KANTO LAAAANG!" aba'y hindi pa rin narinig?! anong akala niya radio yung naririnig niya? grr. yung ale na kasama ko sa trike nagpapara na rin for me, pero dedma ever pa rin yung driver! so ang ginawa ko kinalabit ko na yung driver dahil medyo lang lampas na ko sa 7-11! yan tuloy, medyo naglakad pa ko pabalik, ang init-init pa naman!

singit lang pero promise di na ko magkkwento about school for a while. hehe. ayoko na sa accounting teacher ko! waaaah *sniff* :(

bakit ang sakit ng likod koooo? hm.

until yesterday, i still wasn't able to accept the fact the my cellphone is really gone. there were times when i thought (and wished) that when i look inside my schoolbag, my cellphone would be there, just hiding within the deepest, darkest corners of my blue maong bag. times where before i go to sleep, i'd look for my trusty cellphone and check my reminders at the same time set the alarm to 530am for tomorrow's schoolday. haaay. nakakamiss palang pumindot-pindot. hehe.

haay enough of that. gamit lang naman yun diba? (grr pero yung memories na kakabit nun eh!) haha.

started the day having an economics quiz. i took the test without breakfast! so medyo pano nagfunction ang brain ko? i duno too. sanay na yan eh. hehe. the test was pretty easy, if you saw it. tipong yung homework kasi namin sampung beses nung quiz namin, kasi yung quiz it was like answering one number lang nung homework na binigay niya. so if you answered the homework, sure na you can answer the quiz. pwede mo nga siyang sagutan in only 15minutes eh. if mabilis ka. since we're talking according to my pace here, it took me 30min to answer it, kasi may kasamang OC-ness pa. hehe.

yellowcab! that' s where alex, ching, james and i ate lunch. nyaaar sobrang sarap niya talaga! alex only ate the hot wings ba yun, basta yung chicken wings then ching, james and i ate a 14-inch pizza! kung hindi ba naman kami nabusog nun eh. i ate three slices! yum! half manhattan meatlovers half new york's finest. at siguro naglalaway ka na rin habang binabasa mo 'to. daliiii mag-yellowcab ka na rin. :)

it's a miracle! hindi ako naantok sa aking humabeh subject! it's usual kasi to be sleepy during this subject. why? (1) all we did was to discuss, and if you read the book ahead of time, you'd be bored listening because all the things (as in literally) the prof teach are in the book. (2) the class is at 1140-1240, and us always having an early lunch, shempre nakakaantok pag bagong kain diba? (3) the classroom has a really good temperature, very conducive to....sleeping. :D pero hindi ganun kanina! it was because we had a game, yung mga gradeschool game na paunahan magsulat sa board nung answer? hehe. we played that game. and nice thing is, we won! so our group had +5 recitation points. another thing is, proud kami kasi our group consisted of 6 2nd year college students + 1 3rd year student when all the other groups had all 3rd year students! hah! :)

engltwo was still the usual. iba pa rin ang aura ng college of science classmates namin. haay hirap talaga mahiwalay sa sariling college, ang college of business. anyway. all we talked about was journal articles. nothing interesting. haha sama.

relstri. we continued our film viewing, entitled wall street. honestly, i can't understand the movie pero at least i'm already having an idea as to what the movie wants to show. hehe.

haay. maybe i should start blogging about other things. parang puro about school na lang ata lagi ah. :D
