Multi-Tasking

WARNING:  High Gross Level.  For mature readers only.


Kaninang umaga, nagawa ulit ang bagay na matagal ko ng hindi nagagawa.

Dahil inumaga na ako sa isang overnight drinking session with my barkada in Las PiƱas, nagmamadali akong naghanda sa pagpasok sa opisina para salubingin ang Manic Monday.  Bilang almusal, bumili ako ng taho, kumuha ng twalya at clean underwear at pumasok na sa banyo.

Umupo ako sa trono.

And yes, took a $h!t and ate taho at the same time.

Para kasi sa kin, $h!tting is one of the most boring thing to do.  Hindi talaga ako nag-eenjoy.  Kaya bago ako pumasok ng banyo, requirement talaga na meron akong mababasa just to pass the time.  Minsan, kahit nagmamadali na ako, ini-scan ko pa ang bookshelf ko to find a good book to read (or reread).  Pag hindi na kaya, at napilitan akong pumasok sa kasilyas ng walang bitbit, pinagtyatyagan ko nalang basahin ang ingredients na nakasulat sa likuran ng sachet ng shampoo.

Pagnakahanap naman ako ng magandang book, tinatamad na akong tumayo hanggat hindi ako natatatapos ang isang chapter.  thats when the time i brought new things inside the comfort room to make a little bit more... uhm, comfortable.

Mom:  San ka pupunta?
Miko:  E di sa banyo.
Mom:  E bat para saan yang juice at chichiria?  Me dala ka pang aklat.
Miko:  E di magbabasa, kakain, at tatae.  3 birds at one stone.
Mom:  Nyay, hirap talagang magkaron ng sira-ulong anak.
Miko:  Ang boring kaya sa loob.  next time, palagay tau ng music system.  hahaha.
-------------Mom, Conversations

Minsan naman, may nakakatuwang sensasyon ang ibinibigay ng pag-iri.  those are rare instances na parang meron pang
mamumuong tensyondahan dahang paglabaskasunod ay isang ginhawang nakakapagpalambot ng tuhod mo.  Sagabal nga lang sa pagnanamnam ng pakiramdam ang biglang tilamsik ng malamig na tubig sa sensitibong balat mo.

Pagnagkapera ako, ung talagang sa sobrang dami eh wala na akong mapagkagastusan, ipapa-carpet ko ang sahig ng banyo ko.  then merong magandang sound system.  

Sa ngaun, magazine/book stand na lang muna ang ilalagay ko.

Sa inyong lahat, enjoy $h!tting.  =)

Put ICE on your Cellphone

A recent article from the Toronto Star, "the ICE idea", is catching
on and it is a very simple, yet important method of contact for you
or a loved one in case of an emergency. As cell phones are carried by
the majority of the population, all you need to do is program the
number of a contact person or persons and store the name as "ICE".
The idea w as thought up by a paramedic who found that when they went
to the scenes of accidents, there were always mobile phones with
patients, but they didn't know which numbers to call.

He therefore thought that it would be a good idea if there was a
nationally recognized name to file "next of kin" under. Following a
disaster in London The East Anglian Ambulance Service has launched a
national "In case of Emergency (ICE)" campaign. The idea is that you
store the word "ICE" in your mobile phone address book, and with it
enter the number of the person you would want to be contacted "In
Case of Emergency ". In an emergency situation, Emergency Services
personnel and hospital staff would then be able to quickly find the
contact information under "ICE".

Please forward this. It won't take too many "forwards" before
everybody will know about this. It really could save your life, or
put a loved one's mind at rest. For more than one contact name simply
enter ICE1, ICE2, ICE3 etc.

A great idea that could make a difference!
-------------Anonymous, Forwarded E-mails


Really, its a great idea.  Hindi ko lang alam kung gaano ka-applicable ang sistemang ito sa pinas.

Being cynical, ang iniisip ko, pag nadisgrasya ka dito, at nakita ang cellphone mo, hindi kaya nakawin na lang ng makakita?  ang sama mang isipin, pero alam ko meron ng mga instances na ganon.

Another thing, halos lahat ng cellphone ngaun, kailangan na ng PIN para ma-unlock.  so meron mang good samaritan that would like to inform your family, mabubuwang sya sa panghuhula kung papano i-access ang cellphone mo.

So the system has a very slim chance of success.  But in case of disaster, that slim chance might make a difference!  

Cooperate!

Help Me I'm Falling...

Hindi ko makakalimutan ang madilim na hapon na yon, 1832H January 7, 2007. Seven is the most mentioned number in the bible, (mentioned 54 times in Revelations alone) thus considered very lucky. Katatapos lang ng date ko with W so me and my Mommy Emma were going back home. The place, intersection ng Taft-Ayala.

Madalang ang FX na dumadaan, at dahil pagod na sa kakalakad, iminungkahi kong sumakay na sa unang jeep na darating. Paghinto ng medyo punong jeep sa tapat namin, nagsimula kaming lumapit ni Mommy.

Mabilis ang mga sumunod na pangyayari. Nakita ko na lang bigla ang mga kamay ko na nakahawak sa semento, ang kalsada kapantay ng aking dibdib. May malamig, basa, at maaligasgas na bumalot sa dalawang paa ko. Nagmadali akong umangat, wala pa ring ideya kung ano ang nangyari sa akin. Narinig ko na lang si Mommy Emma ng makita nya akong umaahon.

Oh, anong nangyari sa’yo? Hah? Akala ko napaluhod ka lang, nadapa… Kestengyawa, may bukas palang manhole dyan!
-------------Mommy Emma, Miko’s Memorable Moments

Waaahhh!!! Anak ng pating. Nahulog ako sa manhole!!!

Alam kong hindi ako pa ako mamatay (dahil hindi nag-flashback sa utak ko ang aking nakaraan), pero sa dami ng nakatingin sa akin, sana namatay na ako. Waahhhh!!! Di ko alam kung ang mga usisero sa humintong jeep eh natatawa, naaawa o naiiniis sa katangahan ko.

Tumalikod ako sa jeep na dapat sasakyan namin. Nagbilang ng pinsala. Isang galos sa binti, konting bugbog sa hita na siguradong magpapasa kinabukasan, kumikirot na kanang kamay, masakit na ilong dahil sa di kanais-nais na amoy sa aking mga pa, at higit sa lahat… sugatang pride.

Lintsak talaga. My first blog for this year. Let it not be a preview of things to come. Hahaha.

Mahalaga pa ba ang ligawan?

Is courtship neccessary?

Yes. Courtship is an important stage for both parties to know each other without premature commitment.
 
 6

No. Courtship is obsolete.
 
 1

No. Courtship is full of pretention.
 
 1

Maybe. Depending on the seriousness of both parties.
 
 4

Other Answer.
 
 1

There is (was) a person i'm dating.  Gusto nya na na maging kami, and a couple of times sinabi nya na mahal nya ako.

I just laugh it off.  we only know each other for less than a month, and for me that person barely knows me.  i believe na ang sinasabihan nya ng "i love you" ay hindi ako, kundi ang illusion na ginawa nya about me.

Then, last thursday, i went to cebu.  when i came back last saturday, nakareceive ako ng group message.

"Ang saya dito sa antipolo, kasama ko bf ko"
-------------J., Text Messages

I know the other guy.  My date and I met him last tu
esday, so if i'm going to analyze, they only know each other for 5 days.

i'm not the type of guy that usually regret what i did, lalo na pag sa tingin ko pinag-isipan kong mabuti ang ginawa ko.  but this experience made me think, hard, if courtship is still necessary.

wat do u think?

The Most Insensitive Man in The World

Ako na yata talaga ang pinaka-insensitive na tao sa buong mundo...

CASE 1
friend1: hey...
friend1: remember my ex girlfriend..
.
miko: huh? wat about her?
friend1: hmm...
friend1: nagpunta sya d2 kagabi
friend1: and kinausap si KUYA MAC (ung kasama ko d2)

miko: okies
friend1: sabi sa kanya.... magingat daw ako palagi...
friend1: frat member ung ex ko... haha.. pinagbabantaan na aq
friend1: hehhehe

miko: nye
friend1: kya.... wala lng....
friend1: hahah
friend1: malay mo ipatira nya aq sa co-member nya eh di patay...

miko: well, life is short talaga, hahaha
miko: dalawin mo ko pag namatay ka ha.
miko: :)

friend1: nyeh....
friend1: aos ang comment ha...
friend1: anyway... thanx

miko: sorry, i don't take threats seriously. i received a lot of that. and i don't care about dying. i might welcome death as i would welcome life.
friend1: okie.. wer different... so thanx for dat
miko: :)
miko: maraming beses na me akong muntikan mamatay, o patayin.
miko: nakakasawa na nga rin minsan, lagi na lang close call.
miko: hindi naman natutuloy.

friend1: /:)
friend1: sorry pero hnd ko na a-appreciate ung mga msg mo
friend1: :-<
friend1: ur so mean u know...
friend1: ur so so mean
friend1: hmmmpppp


-------------Chatting with a Friend

CASE 2
Masakit ang tyan ng friend ko while we are having conversations on the phone.  Sinabi nya na wag ko daw syang masyadong patawanin.  So i just gave him advice.
"Uminom ka ng antacid.  Then punta ka sa room mo and lock the door.  Lie down face flat on your bed, stuck out ur ass, at umutot ka ng umutot.  kabag lang yan."
My friend was laughing hard on the other line.  It doesn't seem as funny here but back then, i knew he was trying hard to stop himself from laughing.  Then I add:
"And one more thing, use ur cellphone to record a video of it, hehehe.  I wanna see it.  hahahaa".
We both laughing at that time, close to tears...
Then later that night, he was sent to the hospital.  Mild ulcer or something.
When i found out, i just texted him saying:
"Di pala kaya ng pagtuwad =)"
He told me a day later na nagtampo daw sya sa text ko.  He expected I care more than that.
-------------Conversations with a friend

CASE 3
And as usual, the last is not the least.  Just last saturday, i did the unthinkable.  I brought my 17 yo date in a ktv bar with my friends, got drunk, flirt with a newcomer, and KISS that person beside my date!!!

I'm not writing this because i'm proud.

I'm writing this because i'm really sorry...

this is a public apology to all those people whose life unfortunately crossed with mine.  lalo na sau Bunso... im sorry...

Mikology 101

Ang unang God-Concept
na na-form sa akin ay ang Christian God.
Hindi naman ako nagsisisi
Dahil kung sa Hindu country ako lumaki
Baka ang nasalin sa aking God-Concept
ay isang kulay bughaw na Elepante.

Nangyari lamang na dumating sa buhay ko
ang stage na tinawag kong Unlearning.

Now, I look at Books, including the Bible
without a preconceive notion that "God is Good".
I search the contents of the Message
with a question in my mind "Who or What is God?"

Thus I become a Seeker.

Hindi po ako miembro ng anumang relihiyon
na nakakasigurado ng nakaraan at ng hinaharap
ayon sa aklat na kanilang nabasa
at sa itinuro ng kanilang pastor.

Totoo bang may Diyos
At mabuti ba sya?

Hindi ko alam.
Immortal ba ang Tao?
Hindi ko alam.

Pero intensyon kong alamin.

Hindi lang po Biblia ang binabasa ko
Tinitignan ko rin ang Soul Concept ng Buddhism
O kaya ang kawalan ng God Concept ng Atheism
Maski ang Nonantropomorphical God ng Paganism

Nagtatanong ako
"Bakit ako maniniwala na ang tao ay mula sa alikabok,
at hindi nag-evolve mula sa apes?"
Nag-iisip ako
"Kung ang konsepto ng Diyos sa Hustisya
ay iba sa konsepto ng Tao,
Maaari kayang iba rin ang konsepto ng Diyos
Sa langit, impierno, kaligtasan, kaparusahan at iba pa?
Kaninong interpretasyon ang nararapat tanggapin?
At ano ang basehan?"

Pagbabasehan ko ba ang agham, lohika at pilosopiya?
O ang sarili kong pamantayan ng tama at mali?
O isa sa mga sinaunang aklat?
O sa taong humihiyaw, umiiyak at minsa'y kumikisay sa harap ko?

Marami pong katanungan
na hinanapan ko ng sagot, ng may sinseridad.
Hindi ko inaasahan lahat ng tanong
ay masasagot,
At kung paparuhasan ako ng isa sa mga Diyos
Dahil nagduda ako sa kanya,
Matatanggap ko yon,
Kesa naniwala ako unang taong nambola sa akin.

Upon analysis, marami akong nareceive sa schedule ko.  experience points in time management (sana malapit na akong mag lvl up), sari-saring skill points (photography, event planning and coordination, etc), development sa relationships (yup, i believe we're getting closer),

This month of November will probably be a stage of 
recovery (kailangang magsideline at rumampa uli), reflection (blogging and journaling) at rest (in peace, hehehe).

sa mga naka miss ng blogs ko, fret not, i'm back.
at sa mga hindi, hehehe, lagot kayo, andito na uli ako para magpasakit ng ulo.
