Meron yata akong moomoo sa haus?
The other day while I was unpacking after getting back from my Riyadh trip, my lampshade burned. Wala naman ibang na-damage. Kaunting vacuum lang ang katapat ng kaunting ash from the burning lampshade. Deadma lang mura lang naman ang lampshade eh.
Pero last night, while I was doing some ironing. Bigla na lang may malakas na bumagsak at nabasag sa room ko din. After inspection, I found out na bumagsak ang picture frame from IKEA. Asar ako kasi sayang naman. Atsaka tinatamad pa akong linisin. Kailan pa ulit ako makakapunta ng IKEA eh sa Riyadh at Jeddah lang may IKEA. Sa Alkhobar, wala. But I checked the nail on the wall, nandun pa rin siya at matibay ang pagkakabit. Ininspeksyon ko rin ang frame and the string, it was still attached. Eh bakit bumagsak ang frame?
Isa lang ang naiisip ko.
May moomoo yata akong kasama sa haus?
After months of gruelling auditions all over the Philippines, (as in ginalugad daw talaga ang buong archipelago) and more long months of preparations, a budget that will put Titanic to shame and with a Script that was nominated for a Palanca Award. Hold on to your seats because malapit nang lumabas ang Ugly Betty Pinoy version. Entitled Chaka Berta.
Pinag awayan nila Director Marilou Diaz Abaya, Joel Lamangan, Carlo J. Caparas, Manny Castaneda kung sino ang magdidirek. So naisipan nila na lahat sila magdidirek ng First Ever Filipino Series that has ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, MTV and even ESPN and CNN begging to have the show on their channel.
Nag-audition ang mga big name stars for the show. Claudine Barretto, Judy Ann Santos, Angel Locsin, Marianne Rivera, Christine Hermosa, Angelica Panganiban but were all turned down when they auditioned for the role of Chaka Berta.
Oprah has called numerous times to have her as a guest in her show, but was turned down. Larry King has appealed personally on air for Chaka Berta’s appearance – also turned down. Several publishing houses are now making their own unauthorized versions of her biography.
Namumukod tangi siya.
The next Big Star.
Ang susunod na bituin na pagkakaguluhan ng mga kalalakihan.
Ang ipangtatapat ng Pilipinas kina Angelina Jolie at Beyonce.
Si Chaka Berta

The weather is changing. How do I know? I don’t need superpowers to know. Aside from the fact that my nose is all clogged up like rush hour traffic in Baclaran during Wednesdays when I wake up, I have also turned my airconditioner on Low Cool and cranked down the temperature. Giniginaw na ako in the wee hours of the morning, but I’m too lazy to turn the AC off. That’s a sure sign.
Pero aside from the change in the weather, napansin ko there’s a change in me too. Serious itu. See, mayron akong super crush before. Si crush na ito ang tipong nahihiya ako sa kaniya. Hingian lang ako ng yosi eh feeling ko may meaning na kaagad yon? Kapag tinext niya ako eh parang katumbas na ng isang buwang bonus ang natanggap ko? Na parang magugunaw ang mundo ko kung hindi ko siya ma-text kahit once a day? Ganung tipo. May mga friends akong takang-taka sa akin kung bakit ko siya crush pero mayroon din namang agree. Pero itong si crush na ito, super hoping ako na may future. Dinadasalan ko iyan sa gabi. Picture niya ang huli kong nakikita bago ako matulog, and iyon ulit ang una kong makikita when I wake up. Overacting nga ako eh. Nagpaplano na ako ng mga pangalan ng aming mga magiging anak. The vacations we would take together. Honeymooning in Phuket and Koh Samui.
But just like any other fantasy, my fantasy ended. The fantasy ended when I realized, Third Party pala ako? So tinigilan ko ang drama. Sawa na akong maging Third Party. Hindi na ako nababagay sa ganung roles. A gusto kong role ay iyong mga Kill Bill roles na pang action na, pero super flawless pa rin ang make up ko and hindi nagugulo ang hair ko. So I moved on. It’s been so long na nga eh. Akala ko me and my ex crush wouldn’t have any communication anymore, even if I had gone to Riyadh several times. I never saw ex. Hindi nag-krus ang aming mga daan. I don’t know what ex looks like now. I just hope that ex crush is happy now. And I’m sure hindi naman niya ako naiisip. Siya nga rin hindi ko naiisip eh. Until this morning. I opened my Friendster account and saw that someone added me as a friend. And he waiting for my approval. Sanay na naman ako sa ganun, kasi nga sikat ako eh. Chos! Sinilip ko kung sino. At biglang lumabas sa screen ang familiar face. Ay si ex crush nga. Actually crush ko pa pala siya. Cute pa rin naman siya in a way. Pero just like the season, my feelings changed. Hindi na ako kinikilig at the thought na in-add niya ako? Hindi ako nagkukumahog na i-message siya. And certainly, I didn’t put any other meaning to the act, only that maybe ex crush wants more friends. Pero in fairness in-accept ko naman siya as a Friend sa Friendster. If you want to see, check out my Friendster account, hehehehehe. Then tell me what you think. Ay wag na pala sisikat pa siya. Hahahahaha.
Sometimes even I, am amazed at myself. Probably it’s just normal that people change. I guess the saying is true, that “The only constant thing in this world is change.”
Agree or disagree?
Everything that was supposed to happen over the weekend. Didn’t happen. Super frustrating talaga. But I just chose to shrug all my frustrations and just slept it off. I just thought, sometimes life doesn’t cooperate.
Frustration #1. We were supposed to go to the beach. Didn’t happen. We’ve been talking about it since Tuesday, we all confirmed and we all had different assignments, my assignment were sandwiches, which I made. Ang sarap ng sandwiches ko promise, at pinaghirapan ko pa talagang i-pack in individual wrappers. Pero the guy who had the car didn’t show up. We called him a dozen times, but no reply. He didn’t even bother to call or send a text message to say that he couldn’t come. How long does a call to inform us that he couldn’t come take? Is that so much to ask? Ang manners!!! He even confirmed everything the night before! Kainis di ba?
Frustration #2. R was supposed to come over. Didn’t happen. We spoke and agreed that weekly meetings would be fine. R lived far from me so it wasn’t possible to see each other as often as we wanted but once a week was fine. R called, (at least may manners to call and apologize na hindi siya makakapunta kasi mag shopping daw sila ng Mom and Dad niya) and explained why we couldn’t see each other. I, (played the understanding one – bagay din naman sa akin in fairness) and just hoped for next time.
Frustration #3. To top it all. M called. Hindi ko na inaasahan ito. M always calls, but seldom to never has time to see me. Hindi ko nga maintindihan. I’ve tried to be super-understanding, but naubusan na ako ng pasensya. Kesyo pupunta daw siya sa bahay ko. Tapos when I called, hindi naman sinasagot ang phone? Ano yun? 10:30 pm, while I was getting ready to sleep, M calls, asar ako! I didn’t answer the call, Ganti lang di ba? Afterwards nag text. Nakatulog daw siya and naka silent daw ang phone. Galeng mag excuse di ba?
Nakakapagod din ang ma frustrate! Frustrated in all aspects.
Sa aking frustration, nag picture ako.
Sweet ako dito.
Magpamewang talaga.
Change attire naman. Aminin natin oily ako dito Hahahahaha
Formal Attire naman.
Like ko ang shot na ito.
Winter Attire naman para maiba.
Pawis na pawis na ako niyan.
Nakakapagod ang Photo Shoot. This is me with Photographer Albert.
Lalabas kaya itong picture na ito sa aking post?
Two days in WordPress and I still barely know how to do do a post. I’ve had support from fellow blogfriends whom I have asked for help. Its a little frustrating sometimes when you don’t know how to do the widgets and other things and I don’t have anybody else to ask except my fellow blogger Robertisms who has also migrated to WordPress. I really need a tutorial with this WordPress, if I was just in the Philippines, I’m sure I can ask many people to give me a tutorial, but since I am not, then I would have to train myself.
WordPress is a bit more difficult than Blogger in some ways. Like posting an image I found found took a little more than just a few clicks. In short, kailangan ng tulong ng brain cells para makapag post. I’m not even sure how this post would look like. But I am excited too, I feel like a virgin. I feel the same way as I felt when I just started blogging. The uncertainty, the unfamiliarity and the excitement.
What were your feelings when you started blogging? Did you feel the same way as I do? Please share your knowledge in WordPress with me. I need it badly.
I’ve moved.
Well I’m still in my trial stage, because my Blogger account is still active, but its just shitty right now. If in case, some miracle happens and I am successful in repairing the damages (which I highly doubt will happen) I have done to it, then I shall delete this account. If not, then I shall just try to move everything from there to here. (I have done this already and I was surprised to learn that it was easy) Aint that grand?
Now all I have to know is how WordPress actually works because I am still unaware of how things work here. It seems a little more difficult than Blogger but I’m sure I’ll get the hang of it soon enough .
nothing interesting to post nowadays. i have writer’s block. hehehehe feeling writer naman ako. but i just couldn’t end my week without another post.
babati na lang ako.
robertisms – Did you get to read my blog in Cairo? Anong hitsura ng blog ko sa Cairo? Pareho lang ba? Hugis Triangle ba ang mga bahay sa Cairo katulad ng Pyramids? Did you walk like an Egyptian?
to troi – Dont worry Troi, pagdalaw ko dyan sa Riyadh one of these days (translation kapag may budget) you will see a new more svelte me, katabi ko na ngang matulog ang Rahma Extra Virgin Olive Oil. kumusta naman kaya iyon? at sabihin mo sa Tatay mo – wala lang.
to twinkle – hindi ko napigilan ang sarili ko, i watched Heroes Episodes 1 to 2 pero hindi ko pa natapos ang Episode 2 kagabi kasi 2am na eh watch pa rin ako, naawa naman ako sa mga eyebags ko this morning, and it doesn’t play in my dvd player, so i only watch it in my laptop, kaya ngayon eto ang resulta – nahihilo ako this morning (kulang sa tulog) at slightly gorgeous lang hahahaha.
to bamba, kapatid tawagan mo naman ako sa aking Toll Free one of these days puwede?
to karlo (Pinoy Blogero) hehehe highest number of comments na ako sa iyong blog, actually kinareer ko talaga yan eh. I hope you don’t mind.

to misterhubs – ito ang hindi ko maintindihan, lawyer siya ha? pero binibisita ang blog ko? SHET! im so honored. sana maambunan ako ng kaunting intelligence mo. puwede friends tayo. kasi di ba sabi tell me who your friends are blah blah blah ………
alam ninyo frustration ko lang, eto super hindi ko maintindihan kung bakit, pero nagpo post ako ng comments at ng messages sa chatbox ni vegan prince pero hindi niya ako pinapansin. hindi niya ako like? hahahahaha. hmm self pity ito? para akong KSP actually. try ko pa rin mag message, kapag 3 times na hindi pa niya ako pansinin eh tatanggalin ko na siya sa links ko, kasi wala lang ayaw kong maging KSP. does anybody care?
at sa aking legions of fans. isa lang ang masasabi ko.
J – Just
A – Always
P – Pray
A – At
N – Night

o di ba sabi ko na sa inyo walang akong creativity today? pero ibang level ang kakornihan ko today. dont expect anything funny, puro kakornihan lang today. till saturday again, im starting my weekend tonight.
I made a major blunder at work.
I had finalized a booking for an Austrian Package which included hotel accommodations in Vienna, Salzburg, Zell Am See, Innsbruck and Munich. The agent called me to inform that their Driver was already in his way to pick up the vouchers. Their office was an hour and a half away, so they could just pick up stuff once a day and since their driver was coming to Alkhobar, he was also going to pick up the vouchers for the Austrian Package I had arranged.

Since, I was a newbie, I was asking for help from everybody. By now, I knew which was the best person to ask, and who to avoid asking (those who are really out to help but in the process of helping he ends up confusing, and sometimes doesn’t really help).
The booking was for a couple but since they were going to different places, I had to issue 5 separate vouchers. This is where the problem begins. I was used to issuing just one voucher and not multiple vouchers. One by one I made the vouchers. I made sure the computations were right and everything I made sure was right. But I still made a lot of mistakes. At least I can still use the “I’m new here cut me some slack” excuse.
I had the dates wrong, because I cut and pasted I changed the names of the hotel, changed the telephone numbers but forgot to change the dates !!!! Fortunately, the agent, was not really mad at the mistake, I guess he understood the feeling of being a Green Apple. He just laughed with me. And my colleagues were just understanding. But they warned me to always keep my eyes peeled for mistakes in the future, especially for the coming High Season. Proud pa naman ako kasi I was able to issue 7 vouchers today. But as it was, 4 of the vouchers I issued had mistakes in them.
Boy am I scared. Good luck to me.
