Got Sleep???


Got sleep??? Totally my answer would be a big "NO". I am not really into a job which entails me in a so-called "graveyard shift (in short sepulturero---hehehe)" neh....not that! but still I lack sleep....I just can feel that I am in my own way deprived of this thing and I don't know why??? It isn't just enough. Maybe because of work backlogs, overflowing sequences of thoughts or maybe because I am goin' back into my strange self "being INSOMNIAC". I even tried drinking hot milk (as what other people would recommend), counting sheeps jumping over the fence, thinking of happy thoughts---parang Peter Pan???, drinking a couple shots of beer/wine/tequila or even trying to force my eyes to shut down. But I just end up having a big headache in the morning.

Well, folks all I can say is that "Blessed are the people who can Sleep". So while you have a chance get as much sleep as you can. So grab those nice and comfy pillow of yours (try renting Bochok----Crime buddy's pillow) and tune on your fave evening lullaby (Baba Black Sheep or Twinkle Twinkle Little Star----) and say hello to MR. SANDMAN...

Abrile: A Month to remind Me of being Antediluvian


Abrile...the month dedicated to Venus (according to Ancient Roman beliefs), the month of cherry blossoms in Japan, the same day and month where Shakespeare was born. And its my special day!...

Another year has come again for me to celebrate or rather painfully remind me that I am at this point in time gettin' down much nearer at the bottom of the calendar...but not that much though... Worst but funny thing about my special day is that I did spent it again away from my family, friends, amigas, compadres...etc...etc... It has been almost 4 years that I am celebrating it on my own or usually away, I might be on business trip and work (with Crime buddy as my constant companion)---no choice eh dude! or even in school preparing for those dreadful exams...Whew!

But eventhough my special day was celebrated outside of my comfort zone, special people in my life would still call, SMS or simply buzz just to greet or remind me of gettin' antediluvian... What's so memorable about these days would either be a race in one of the 8 Wonders of the World (Great Wall of China), my first winter chill during April---which is totally weird, or a visit from your worst nightmare----my Singaporean Boss "mener à la baguette" who delightfully greeted me with a smile and hug !

Having another trip to my B-day memory lane, each year I do celebrate this day it gets even more and more memorable with new people gettin' involved in it! To the people who constantly remembers my birthday... Thanks a lot!--- and to the people whom has been a new addition to it, I thank you as well...but I 've been more thankful if you have added a little extra somethin' di bah---ang lagay bah eh, ganun na lang---just kiddin'. To my Crime buddy, who is always present during these days, thanks for being there to celebrate it with me---

Violin Madness! A New Undertaking


I need a deviation from all of these...junk pile of emails...a bagful of workloads...a long list of reports....Release me!!!

A sudden feeling for something new to challenge me came into my senses! I decided to take violin lessons. Another sudden outbursts from me...to think it was completely a different and new instrument to learn again and quite different from what I used to play. I am really known for this outbursts which sometimes gets me into trouble and my mom would always try to scold me for this attitude. But, they can't make me say "no" to this, I want this and want to pursue this! Being that hard-headed person, they can't really--- unless there's a life changing and threatning situation that would make me quit.




I am not quite sure though how would I fit this into my very demanding and hectic schedule...???hmmm....???nevermind I'll find a way, as along as I satifsy this sudden outbursts of mine. Maybe this will keep me away from the usual office work that I'm always monotonously at. Sort of like deviate from the pains of work!


Since I'm quite determined in this violin madness... I am hoping that I'll be able to play some real music out of it... probably... Apologize (One Republic) ---- (with crime buddy as my first trial audience--my music guinea pig for short!).
