underachiever... still!

turning 26 just few days from now... and still im a total failure... yeah i've been sooo gloomy these past few days. i need to take a break... think... think... i hate it when my birthday is coming, i tend to evaluate myself! darn!!!
see just another gibberish post... another failure for me :-(

Glad to be your alarm clock

How many times in your life that someone will say you are like an alarm clock, because it is important for them to wake up on time. I don’t know how many times but at least for once somebody did tell me that. Actually it started with a silly text, the text goes… “If I were something in your bedroom what would I be and why?” of course this chaotic mind of mine have to answer back… and to throw back the question again. And then the answer was… well you’ve guessed it right! An alarm clock! He he he… why I am so happy hearing this? It’s because I know how important for that person to come to office on time, and for the short period of time I have been “the alarm clock” of this person. That made me someone essential part of that persons life.

But sometimes the alarm fails to do its duty, what if the alarm clock would be replaced by something else… what if that other clock would be much wacky, modern and lively? Would I be left on the attic waiting for my final destination? Or will I be kept on the room… unnoticed. Just like before?

If only I was an alarm clock… I won’t be feeling anything…

ABNKKBSNPLAko?!

Nalaman kong hinde pala exam na may passing rate ang buhay. Hindi ito multiple choice, identification, true or false, enumeration, o fill-in-the-blanks na sinasagutan, kundi essay na isinusulat araw-araw. Huhusgahan ito hindi base sa kung tama o mali ang sagot, kundi base sa kung may kabuluhan ang mga naisulat o wal. Allowed ang erasures.

...what a brilliant analogy by my fav pinoy author BOB ONG... he really has the power to make non sense thing into something sensible. Hmmm... I'm not saying he's none sense. I mean who would compare life from essay writing. I just have to say he's genius. Once again he'd proven that every book he publishes is worth buying. As you read through "ABNKKBSNPLAko?!" you get to reminisce those days when you were in school, as always I could relate to his stories... high school life... haaay! Those days! When most of us were exploring... we're like freshly hatched from our eggs (hmmm sounds disgusting?!) and trying to reach the sea... yeah turtle eggs! There! I gotta say one day I would publish my own book just like Bob, witty but with substance!

And so I am ready for my next book... his latest! Stainless Longganisa! ...soon I'll get my very own "Ang Paboritong Libro ni Hudas, the book that got me into reading!... then Bakit Baligtad Magbasa Ng Libro Ang Mga Pilipino? And Ang Alamat ng Gubat.
