Morning Rant

Time: 6:52 AMWet and irritated. It's definitely not a very good morning for me. Oh, it started out right. I woke up at 1 in the morning, watched YouTube vids of PBBDU (I snore my way through the nomination night) and worked. By 5:30, my stomach started grumbling - and so I started nagging Erbe to wake up. I wanted to go to Jollibee, but he wouldn't budge.Hmp, I thought. Huffing, I get dressed and went on my not-so-merry-way, all the while, cursing...

Addicted to PBB Double Up

I am effing addicted to Big Brother Double Up. It's embarrassing! Here's how I know I'm effing hooked to the friggin' show.1. I set my alarm clock to wake me up every night in time for PBB.2. I steal from Erbe's load just so I'd be able to vote for House A nominees.3. "Ba? Pirang beses ka nagboto? Grabe baga bawas sa load ko?" 4. I immediately call up Cheryl after every primetime episode to discuss with her the night's episode, curse at Mariel...

Is There Really Something about Mary?

My best friend is heartless.She breaks hearts and she doesn’t look back.Kidding!In truth, my bestfriend is far from being cruel or heartless. She actually has a very good heart. I can honestly say that I haven’t met someone as kindhearted as she is. That is, of course, until I’ve met my husband. Anyway, Tin has a pure soul – and that’s the problem.This is why she has left broken hearts in her wake and many of these people have never recovered. Just...

Meddling with Tinay's Love Life

To be honest, I didn’t notice her at first; although it was already obvious that she has the brains of Einstein right from the start. Right off the bat, that’s the first thing one would notice about her. Anyway, it was only after she began arguing with our trainer that I finally noticed her. She is opinionated and intelligent – and she knows her English grammar. In fact, she aced the damn thing.How did we become friends?I took pity on her.Seriously!...

To Whom It May Concern

Cruelty is a lovely, lovely thing –Because it frees you from the lies and wishes that will never come to pass.I don’t know how I can make it any easier.Perhaps, it’d be easier to understand if I would explain.You see, I believe that when he was five, God created me - for him.I have always been meant for him.I have told him so many, many times.I have shared my heart to many, but my soul to only one.In my quiet solitude, I know this.He knows it too.You...

I'm giving them all a rest - well, except for my Facebook games. :)Don't worry Tinay and Jinx, I'd still be visiting your blogs and will leave INAPPROPRIATE comments.For...

Dear Tinay

Please do not complain about him calling at 6 a.m.He calls me at 3 in the effing morning!It doesn't matter if he thinks I'm still awake - you do not call people at 3 o'clock in the morning unless it's a matter of life and death.You still got the longer stick. :)But you're right, he's a nice guy, so yeah, we can forgive him for his weird idiosyncrasi...

I'll Be Damned

What if things turn out differently?Who would have thought that things will end here?Who would have thought indeed.I am flattered.Deeply flattered - and yes, thankful as well.Still, it doesn't change things.Those words are seven years too late.Life has thrown me too many curve balls.Like I said before, fate is laughing its ass off at my expense.And right now, I think it's doubling over in hysterical laughter.Closure be damn...

Rambling at 2:08 AM

Listening to Kelly Clarkson's Already Gone. It's a good song - definitely one of those songs that you can relate to. Well, I can relate to it.Is vastly irritated with some of Facebook's updates. No, Tinay, your updates amuse me and entertain me. It's the lovey-dovey updates that make me want to barf my intestines out. Not a pretty picture, huh? You'd feel the same too if these people were in your list. That's not too bad - you're probably thinking....

Sex and Marriage

Earlier this evening, my sister called me up to check up on us. Eventually, we got around to talking about marriage and intimacy, my sister was telling me about her opinion about sex and marriage. At some point, I said, "Siguro talaga sa kadaklan na mag-agum nene arug naman talaga kayan. Nababawasan naman lang talaga ang intimacy o sex kasi nga garo na lang sinda mag-tugang."Did she leave it at that? Of course not. She wouldn't be Kris if she did,...

Writer's Block

I think it does not come as a surprise to many people that I am actually working as a writer. The good thing about this is that I am actually getting paid for writing. This was not the case before. Nowadays, even my aunts offer to pay me for whatever they would like me to write. Even my own father considers paying me for writing! Well, he considers. He does not actually pay.Anyway, I grew up writing stuffs for people. I remember writing Kuya...

Lost: 500 Hundred Bucks

Mama borrowed five hundred bucks from me the other day. Later that evening, Paige approached her and said, "Papa hagad money."Thinking that Erbe was asking for the five hundred bucks, she handed over the money to Paige. My daughter did not give the money, however, to her papa or to me. Instead, she went downstairs where everybody else in the house saw the money. Later, Nana Viol saw her going upstairs clutching several hundred bills on her hand...
