Wednesday, July 12th, 2006

… did i read that text message right, Ayen? Your officemates thought I was…your…your…boyfriend?!?!?!

… i was wearing a pink lace top for crying out loud! I can’t possibly get any girlier than that! Pink lace?!

… oh wait… so  now…they think we’re lesbo?!?!

… c’mon give the short hair a break! it’s growing as fast as it can!

… okaaaay that’s the last time you’re clinging onto my arm while we’re walking, that must’ve been it. what else could it have been?

…well, at least there’s progress right? at least i’m no longer getting called ’sir’

… at least now… er, well, lesbos are women anyway. at least the gender’s right this time.

… is the hair really THAT bad? Hahaha! Okay, learned my lesson, will not have it cut this short any more!

Wishin’ and hopin’

Tuesday, July 4th, 2006

After networking 101… I don’t think I’m in the right mindset to make that list yet, Zarah and Ayen. I’m still thinking netbus and routers,broadcast storms and ipv4 and subnet masks, and I would’ve said,
“Surprise me!” ;P

I wish that…

1. England would win the world cup…but that’s impossible this year. All my favorite teams are now out of the running! Argentina, England and Brazil! I’m soooo disappointed! I didn’t even watch Pacman’s fight because I started thinking all the teams/players I root for or watch get jinxed! Lo and behold, Pacman won! Hehe. I know, non sequitur.

2. Game to match my preds! Would be great to win the upcoming tourney…would be great to get back to organized play and real tough “I’m seeing white, I can’t breathe!” training. I daresay, I miss it.

3. For my hair to grow back pronto. And for the patience not to cut it even though it looks horrible while growing it out. I got another “Anong order nyo, sir–ay, ma’am!” last week when I forgot to put on my earrings. I now avoid using treadmills that are right in front of the mirrors so I don’t have to see my “sir-ay,ma’am pala!” reflection. I’d rather do roadwork anyday.

4. For the title of that book…What book was that? The one with the girl holding the soccer ball on the cover… I think Elvis was in the title? It’s about this little girl who loves soccer…er, football, and Elvis Presley.

5. To find out that coins wasn’t…isn’t gay? And to find that youknowwho IS gay! Mwahahaha!

6. For a tin of Caramel Rooitea from my fave coffee/tea shop

7. Do they still have it? Maybe a tin of Chai tea instead

8. Zips! Orage or lime green or aqua ones! So it’ll feel like summer all over again…

9. For someone to find my lost paintings… the nice ones. The ones that got lost in the org tambayan back in college. I stopped painting after that - I tried to recreate them but they weren’t the same, they didn’t carry the emotions and thoughts I had back then…that made all the difference. I really mourned the loss of those.

10. To get a subtitled copy of Jeux d’Enfants. It translates to Children’s Games but it was released here as Love Me if You Dare. I’ve been trying to find a copy for over a year now… to no avail. :(

11. Hmm… Kiss Kiss Bang Bang was also nice. And Vuxna Manniskor, too. Oh and Kurosawa’s Seven Samurai.

12. I’m obviously making this up as I go along…hahaha. Teach me how to flip like Klose!

13. To do an ATW trick successfully

14. To get the ‘challenge’ out of my system. I mean really now, what was I thinking?! No, wait, what AM I thinking… would be more appropriate. Geez. Stuck in a Petrarchan slump… well, at least not a Petrarchan Sapphist slump…that would be lots worse.

15. Paulo Coelho’s The Warrior of Light or this little compilation of quotes from all this books…

16. To ride Big Honey (err, “Bighani”) or Blue Diamond again

17. Something hand-made? Something drawn? Something cut or pasted? Something with a lot of love and good intentions…something abstract…something… heck, I obviously don’t really know what I want.

18. Those cheap plastic balloon tubes?

19. Sunflowers?

20. I don’t know!!!

21. Errrm….

23. An e-mail from coins? Telling me he’s not gay, that he needs an apprentice, that he suddenly plays pro football, and that he realizes I’m the love of his life and can’t wait to see me? Hahaha! Even a simple hello would keep me beaming for
months, actually.

24. Something sunny…

25. No rain later on in the month would be great

26. a hula hoop?

27. Discipline

28. Discipline

37. Color. Orange. Lime. Aqua. Yellow. Brightness. Warmth.

38. A swing ride.

39. A jungle gym to swing upside down from

40. A tree to climb

41. Corny jokes and more of Zams and Patty’s footbolero pick-up lines “Are you a left wing? I’m a right wing…and together, we can fly!” Hahaha!

42. A call

43. Closure

44. A smile… lots of smiles
