noodles and spice, prozac and ice


i have valid excuses for not updating the journal for two days. i had my days off and in all fairness, nakakasawa na talagang mag-internet. officially, i have a 7am to 4pm job but as i can see it, i am just working from 7am to 1pm and the rest of the day, i am just blogging, friendstering, hi5ing, myspaceing, ringoing at kung ano ano pa na nasa internet.

thanks to Bob Ong, i was able to spend half of my Wednesday reading his Pulitzer-Prize winning book "Ang Paboritong Libro ni Hudas" (hehehe) which actually inspired me to do some writing for "be the difference in a quotient. The book is so goddamn funny... the whole world just stopped while my gilagid and lips are making nginig sa kakatawa (kolehiyala ito!). His work is so spontaneous. I just love it.

i spent the other half of my first day off of the week with pat. i just loitered around the office pretending to be a part of the team that is doing the preparation of the Spanish inquisition a.k.a. Accenture visit. i believe they're going to edit the Convergys policies on some issues. Upper management shit that is being worked on by the staff. Harharhar.

the latter part of the night was an unexpected bloodbath. pat and i watched Kill Bill and... it was... so .... bloody! in all fairness, talagang nag-iispray ang dugo. di ito makatarungan. di ko kineri. over all, the movie should be watched only for its shock value. i should give credit to tarantino though for utilizing an unconventional story telling style. shet...feeling ko ako si o-ren ishii...kasi siya ang endorser ng SBC and she kicks ass!

and then last night, i had my first bowl of cold Korean noodles. pat and i went to this Korean restaurant in makati, and in all fairness, sarado na sila nung dumating kami pero pinagbuksan nila kami. Feeling ko talaga ako si o-ren ishii and i want to think na natakot sila sa dala kong samurai sword. etchos! dati talaga, di ko talaga maisip na kakainin ko ang pagkain ng mga Koreano. Siguro kasi mukhang koreano ang tatay ko at hate ko siya at feeling ko kasi may sariling mundo ang mga koreano based on ryam's stories dati. so in short, dedma talaga ko sa Korean food.

but then again, i was in the mood to try something new...and pat inspired me to do that. i had to deviate from my usual KFC dinner and go to a restaurant na di ko alam kung pano sasabihin ang pangalan. i was so surprised on how the dinner turned out... good company... good food... good conversation. medyo nadisturb lang ako sa cold noodles dahil naiimagine ko yung starbucks frapuccino ko na nilagyan ng pista pansit ulam na adobong pusit flavor. disturbing lang yung itsura pero masarap tanga! may kakaibang zest ito. basta kakaibang experience.

nga pala, maysh, i know you've been depressed for the past three days... ang masasabi ko lang ay... super kumongah! halimaw ang mga post mo... gusto mo prozac? :)
