~Butterfly Carnival~ sandwich

So you say you hide it........
Pay the fine and don't regret your stars
But then you steal the pipe and blow the kisses
Oh, you play your part


When you feel you find it Know you find it But don't forget your heart Because your soul is burning Time's a-turning No one stays the same

Woo-hoo...

Inside my mind you trace it
Face to face and run into your waves
Regressing, eyes are hollow, soul is shallow
Oh, you drain my heart


When you feel you find it Know you find it Don't forget your heart Because your soul is burning Time's a-turning No one stays the same

Butterfly... butterfly...Butterfly...

~Unwell~ matchbox 20

went to subic this weekend, traffic northbound expressway very taxing. we were jammed for 4 hours going to pampanga. another 2.5 going to olongapo. beach by the sea resort quite respectable (redundant name for a resort eh?), better than last year's baloy beach. however the room rates quite stiff. the best part is waking up at dawn and getting greeted by the sea breeze. mmm...* :) enjoyed the boat ride to the nearby island where the water is clearer and shore is isolated from the tourists... boat ride is 30min long and costs 500 pesos per hour. water is nice and cool except there is a school of jellyfish swimming with us, LOL! and we just watched discovery the night before and seen how deadly jellyfish sting is. some of us got stung but we went home fine. wish i could upload the pix of the jellyfish girls, hehe.

right now my officemates are breathing down my neck coz it's the end of our shift and we need to leave the office and retire for the day. 7.30am. later.

btw, saw the video of unwell and as usual rob thomas is stunning.

~Comfort In Your Strangeness~ cynthia alexander

woke up this mornin... i was starin at the ceiling cracks and roadmaps and highways... and landscapes

i have seen
i have been
to places far and deep in my mind
only to find
comfort in your strangeness


of moving shadows when i call the wind by name
rushing firewater in the dark of a cloud


we are slaves to the crimes we commit
in fits of passion we shame
we are nothing we are nothing we are nothing we are nothing
but the dust on your feet...


...dying to be born again

singing ether water fire
singing earth singing air


i have seen... i have been... to places far and deep in my mind... only to
find... comfort in your strangeness

~

cynthia alexander is my favorite local artist. just paying tribute. ;) :: Dush Wednesday, April 23, 2003 [+] ::

~Road House Blues~ the doors

love the riffs. i remember seeing the movie girl, interrupted 9 times in the cinema with my buddies jd and rob. [aminin nyo.:p] and later 30 more times with the vcd monique gave me. i'm obssessive like that. and in that scene where jolie's and character hitches a ride in a van filled with a bunch of marijuana-sniffing hippies, and later in that trucker/biker-infested, smoky club, the bgm music was the trippy road house blues and jim morrison's voice was softly echoing like shot of nostalgia being injected in your system, whispering, those where the days my friend...and you know the rest.;) i woke up this morning and i grabbed myself a beer!

and no, i'm not high. but she's so high...high above me...sorry. just had to sing. who sang that again?

~ last night at work this week. i'll be spending fri and sat with a friend. staying at their place. tekken rematch, i reckon. then i'll hibernate for 2 days with my family in san fernando. that's why i can't join my officemates at enchanted kingdom this sat. sowee.:c and the scooby gang went to mindoro for a 5-day vacation and i wasn't able to join them because it's business as usual with the ops.:c *turning green with envy* ~

i need a good book. haven't read one in a while. i have some books i borrowed from my bro i haven't even touched yet. little green men and gaiman's neverwhere.

most brilliant lines i've read:

-brevity is the root of wisdom.
-what is it about meter, rhythm and cadence that makes their makers mad?
-rich company, like rich food, is often the cause of indigestion.
-successful sucide demands good organization and a clear head. both of which
are usually incompatible with a suicidal state of mind.
-suicide is not dramatic enough.
-it's probably contrasts. light and shadow. how would you know you had the good times if you never had the bad ones?

~Rest In Peace~ james marsters

I am the Tekken Master. Beat my friend without breaking a sweat. Colon X, please practise. I thought you're the grand champ? What's all screeching and yelling? Not to mention tugging my controller mid gameplay. :p Nice game, though, nice game. I have three words for you: Practie, practice, pratice. Or is that one word repeated three times? Heh, no matter. Just deadpanning my Wesley-self. But you were such a sport! :D Lol! Trash-talkin'. Hehe, I'm dead when you read this, aren't I?

~ Saturday morning after my gaveyard shift, I headed home and slept. Missed the graduation formation at school but my friends reserved seats and everything for me. Not even sure if I want to march in may. March in May. *Raise your hand if you got confused back there. :D* Heh, anyway, I spent the my long weekend with my friend Miles* and that was a blast! Let's do that again sometime. Fun. Family's super cool. Adopt me anytime. :D

ok,here's my blog. as per ria's request. gah,dunno why i haven't much to say this days.:( (she's been complaining why i only posted lyrics to death of cinderella.) now,if i started blogging a few years ago,i would have so much to say then. was very raw,inspired and ideal..or maybe non-ideal. whichever,i had so much to say. back then. ideas,ideas,ideas. theories and concepts,i juggle them everyday. while walking down the street,talking to a friend,looking at something,i'd get a pen and jot down my thoughts on paper.

frozen.



always tinkering on writing a book. i realized later that i can't. not most equipped with the language and my vocab is slim, my english fractured and my plotlines bland. no consistency- ideas jumping up and down,half-formed realizations flying into oblivion. besides,thought i better arm myself with knowledge and first-hand experience first.

very sporadic.

so now,i get dragged through my daily life,and not attempting to do a buffy here,but feel like i'm going through the motions. (kindred,that you smiling?) very cliche but true. i'm rambling but i don't even have to explain that as this is what a blogger's all about. what's all this ra-ra? yay. i gotta go.

w.o.r.k. *loud sigh*:(

Death Of Cinderella~ alanis morissette

I'm wise and ambitious
And angry and free
And smart and available
And sexy...

I'm soft and appealing
And wearing pajamas
And twisted and willing
And crazy...


And this is the story of the death of Cinderella
She'd grow to be a maid if she couldn't find a fella
Who can use her
And it's all you could do not to throw her on the floor.

And thought-provoking
And opinionated
Cultured and funny
And experienced...


Fearless and tender
And sweetly innocent
Uninhibited
Likes a good debate.


And this is the story of the death of Cinderella...

~No Rain~ blind melon

..and I don't understand why I sleep all day..
..and I start to complain that there's no rain..

Yay. I slept while at work today. And I don't understand why I didn't wake up.
Almost. Customer was like, "Hello? Uh.. helluuu.. :(" And I was
like, "*Zzzz...*" :D Nyahaha..

Cons has been complaining because I went ahead and had "lunch" at 3am and didn't bother to wait for her. :D Erm, that was already 3:15 and she was still taking calls. I texted her on both her 2 mobiles to inform her of my whereabouts. The whining git has been complaining all night about me heading off when I actually did her a favor, unwittingly I have to admit. The favor? Hehe. She's with.. u-hurrrmmmn. :D Later Connie.

Have nothing to say anymore so here's the rest of the words of the late Shanon Hoon:

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
I like watching the puddles gather rain
And all I can do is just pour some tea for two
And speak my point of view but it's not sane
It's not sane
I just want someone to say to me
I'll always be there when you wake
You know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today
So stay with me and I'll have it made
And I don't understand why I sleep all day
And I start to complain that there's no rain
And all I can do is read a book to stay awake
And it rips my life away but it's a great escape

~Walking After You~ foo fighters

...tonight i'm tangled in my blanket of clouds...
...dreaming aloud...

Discovered Ria likes BTVS and Sandman! Wippeee!!! Someone to rant with, lol!:D Yup, Ri, will lend you Season 6, which my friend Veen gave me.:D Hi Veen!

Today, "petiks" in the office coz not much work. However, we were subjected to a long and boring meeting to compensate for the low production.=( Very bad. Meeting was held at the very very cold and I mean cold meeting room. And it was our lunch time. Never ever take away agents' lunch time from them. Else, they would fall asleep while your talking password resets on the floor. And did I mention it was very cold in the room?

~She Said~ collective soul

...she used to have dreams...but she drank them away...
...and she is to blame...for the way she is today...

4:00 am. 21 calls. AVG Talk 5:50. Didn't have "lunch." Full. Listening to launch radio.

On my playlist: Tori Amos, Eric Clapton, The Doors, The Grateful Dead, Green Day, Jimi Hendrix, Kid Rock, Led Zeppelin, Bob Marley, Matchbox Twenty...

5:20 am. Time for my last yosi break. Cheating the call master so Cons and I share the yosi break time.

I can't wait for Faith's return on Buffy. Of course we're one season behind but we always have KaZaa to thank for. *broad grin* Eliza Dushku update: (not that you care and neither is this an eliza site but hey...this is my blogger.:D) Faith will be appearing in the last 5 episodes of Buffy: *Dirty Girls, *Empty Spaces, *Scorecard, *End of Days and *Chosen. Next month.:D

However, the much talked about Faith spin-off is halted because Ms. Dushku signed to pilot her new tv show with Fox. Tentative title: Heroine. Summary: College girl who works in a morgue relives a day in the life of the dead people so they can change something about their life/death.

Yo time.

... ~Take A Picture~ filter

Many thanks to my bestest bud Veenmind for the whipped up image of Death above. So pretty. Dark and turmoiled. But still says Peachy. Neat. Teleuthe. Miss her. I hope someone sends me The High Cost Of Living...=)

VL. VL. VL.

I can file 'em but they're unpaid VL's so... probably won't. Besides, my shift is at 10pm to 7am. I don't feel like it's work anyway. I am paid to sit. And to be ranted at by stupid Americans.

Thanks to Veen again for giving me a copy of The New Guy last weekend. *Hugs.* Role is trashy, but Eliza is pretty. *Nods*

A shout to my friends. Yes please, let's hang soon. I'll be available week after next. Pls schedule with my secretary.:D ...Awwww! *Gets smacked in the head*

~If Your Not The One~ Daniel Bedingfield

Okay. Anyone else sick of this song? *ducks from projectiles being thrown at my general direction*

Yeah, it's pretty but like any other hit song, if you hear it every hour, you'd get sick of it, too. Will make your stomach upset. Hi Gaitec! Oh, my friend's bro sings this very well! He's married. But that's not the reason why I don't like the song anymore. I like Robbie William's new one. *runs and ducks in shame* Forgot the title.

Anyway.

Last time we had this conversation, you threw a bread at me. :p

~I'm Just A Kid~ Simple Plans

Office. Multitasking. My brain is shrinking from people complaining and whining.

"I want my domain name out of your companyyyy!!!!!"

"I'd be happy to assist you with that, however, your domain is in an unpaid status, therefore inactive so you won't be able to do any transactions. You can renew it and have it transfered 30 days prior to expiration."

"You are holding my domain name hostaaaaage!!!!!"

Whatever.

Today, I filed for VL, got a slot but I wasn't able to find my sup so he can sign the form. So now I'm here. S'okay. At least I have a chance to blog and will get paid. Besides, I already absented myself Friday and Monday.

Tuesday, I had lunch with a friend and I watched Orpheus. Orpheus - an opiate that faith injected into her system to decapitate Angelus when the latter bit her. Effect - left them both intoxicated and half dead.

~Come Around~ rhett miller

Always thought this was Tom Yorke. The whining and choking, very similar. Ey, I love this song. I love Radiohead. The Bends, my fave.

So.

Yay. I'm at home today. Supposed to be at work but this acute tonsil of pharyngitis arresting me in bed. Had 10 hours of sleep. Wow. I usually have 4 to 6. Yesterday I only had 2 hours. Made up for that now. So, long day ahead of me. Figured I'll first update this blogger and show respect to those who linked me.

And.

I'm almost done with Orpheus download. Heh, can't wait for the cross-over.



Meanwhile, have to doctor my doctor's cert. You know, so I could get clinic clearance and go back to work.

I'll edit the template and add links now.
