Try The Soup Kitchen’s Clam Chowder and Bayou Shrimp. They’re mouth-watering! You can go to RCBC Plaza, Megamall Building A or Glorietta. Happy eating!

No Title

A beautiful year has just begun but this day, I felt that the fountain of innovation has totally dried up and no matter how hard I try, am seemingly unable to muster any new ideas whatsoever.

My biorhythms are perhaps low, and therefore my mind is working at a slower pace than usual even if I concentrate on routine tasks. I hope that by tomorrow, my ingenuity is back on track.

But there are few realizations…

My pea-brained Deputy is the hugest turd that ever been discharged and her ideas have no sense of purpose at all. I feel like being arrested by the primitive within by merely looking at her.

Sorry that was just behind my mind, especially when am dead-tired. All I need is just a while para maka-ngiti na ulet.

Come-On

Thoughts apropos of anything

-I am officially back to work.

-I caught the worst headcolds ever and am nursing my way to full recovery.

-Reality Check: I got loads of stuffs to finish. Dozens of Emails to answer.

-2010- I gotta enjoy more. Throw all negativities away.

-”Mahirap lang ako pero di ako magnanakaw!!!” -One Classic Pinoy Movie Dialogue that makes me Abderian.

-I love long road trips but resentment and impatience took possession of me with the last one I had. I hate being stuck in the mountains.

-I really don’t need to prove anything to anyone.

-I am feeling a bit under pressure to get a lot of work done.

-Musical Theater- Here I come(again)!!!

-Projects that require creativity simply can’t be rushed. Just allow your muse to work its magic otherwise, the time will likely be spent in vain.

-Will Power: I’d produce something of real merit from the things that I love doing!

TYVM

Stay put! This is just a relatively short write-up.

Ok so the year is almost over, we only got a day left before 2010 finally swags its butt(?) around.  I really don’t know what to expect but I am keeping my fingers crossed.

2009’s the most exhilirating and demanding year to me. I had moments that filled my heart with excessive self-esteem, shares of triumph and not-so-stellar escapades too.

I just want to express my utmost gratitude to the people that made my year awe-inspiring.

Office friends, Theater friends, TV friends, Twitting friends, you rock!

BUI-Blogging Under the Influence

12/29/2009-01:05AM

As I consume my late night cravings, sipped my cola and feel the caffein bludgeon my every nerve, I thought about the rapidly changing world in which we live in. A new world, a science-fiction society, growing us with disconcerning speed and vigor.

It was both exhilirating and frightening to be alive in these times. Mankind had acquired the ability to reach the stars, to take a giant leap off this world and spread out through the universe, but the species had also acquired the ability to destroy itself before the inevitable emigration could begin.

New technology–like the computer–freed men and women from all kinds of drudgery, saved them vast amounts of time. And yet…And yet the time saved did not seem to mean additional leisure or greater opportunities for meditation and reflection. Instead, with each new wave of technology, the pace of life increased; there was more to do, more choices to make, more things to experience, and people eagerly seized upon those experiences and filled the hours that had only moments ago become empty.

Each year life seemed to be flitting past with greater speed than the year before, as if God had cranked up the control knob on the flow of time. But that wasn’t right, either, because to many people, even the concept of God seemed dated in an age in which the universe was being forced to let go of its mysteries on a daily basis.

Science, technology and Change were the only gods now, the new Trinity; and while they were not consciously cruel, they were too coldly indifferent to offer any comfort to the sick, the lonely and the lost.

Having said that, I’d like to think that this coming year, we are all able to create a boundary between ourselves and the stuffs goin on around us because there is nothing compared to the serenity felt in being alone, even just for a little while, away from the beastly stress given by the real-world. I can only hope somehow.

May everyone have a blessed New Year. Let’s all welcome 2010 with a happy heart! This is an advance greeting ‘coz I will no longer get online until I leave for Manila.

Love To You,

Kyle

An unexpected text message from someone you like-.

Greetings from Isabela(a.k.a If I can ramble, why not?)

12/24/2009–Can you believe that this year is almost over? I am asking myself now where did all the days go? I am almost sad that it went by so quickly but I’d like to think that because there are a lot of good things happening and being so engaged in a busy working schedule made it hardly noticable. Days that are dull on the other hand makes the hours seem to be turtle-slow.

But whatever happens, I am not letting this day slip away from my grip without greeting everyone a very Merry Christmas!

Yes, I love this day of the year. That child-like feeling still remains in me along with the excitement that makes my heart knock as hard as a fist on the door during the special time of the evening. Priceless.
 
Moving along.

This morning, I went to our kitchen to check for the recipes to be cooked. The room was not redolent of spices or lingering cooking odors as the air was laced with astringent scents of disinfectants and scouring powder. Judging from the melange of odors, it was cleaned up long before I’ve woken up. Excuse my french but it caused me even more f*cking excited!

I am a person that makes all ends meet, even tied to a knot. I can party all night long when I am in the big city. I can be so carefre, but when I have myself homebound, I’d prefer to just stay in my room or in the kitchen. No, I am not gourmandizing but rather cooking, and I get utterly satiated from just a few snuffs.

Cooking is one of my favorite works of the day. I follow recipes with scientific exactitude, measuring and combining ingredients as carefully as a bombmaker handling explosives and unstable chemicals.(O.C. ba ako?)

Not only that…

For every household chore, I establish elaborate procedures to which I adhere as rigorously as an engineer would follow the operational manual in a nuclear power plant where imprecision might mean meltdown. Doing stuffs like reading can also become a lengthy enterprise that fills otherwise empty hours.

And because am in 7th heaven right now, I couldn’t figure out where the heck should I begin. Haha. I rambled didn’t I? That’s what you get when facing a darn notepad. No INTERNET CONNECTION.

Anyway, whatever means you celebrate Christmas, may all of you feel the tidings of joy and love brought by this season. Stay safe.

Oh sige na, let me cut this write-up now and let me chill the wine.

Cheers!!!

Errands done in haste

12/23/2009–This is a relatively happy day because I got to workout in Fitness Camp and the place I believe is far better than the ones we have in CGS. They have a lot of equipments making someone so inspired to pump it all up. After my session, I went straight to Jambalaya, ordered a delectable Caesar Salad and grabbed the golden opportunity to SURF unlimitedly.

Later this afternoon, my mom, uncle, Kean and I went buying for some Noche Buena stuffs and the people clogging around was a bit heavy. Thankfully, we didn’t miss a thing. Then we trotted our butts home in a flash ‘coz of the weather being still unpredictable like a woman going menopausal, with the heavy gloomy sky over the canopy of our little city, swollen with unspent rain that sagged toward the earth.

As I write this entry, I am almost through PJ&TO-The Titan’s Curse, glancing on and off my media player showing Sweeny Todd, my feet comfortably stretched over a hump of fluffy pillows and feeling overstuffed from the foods I had for dinner while I just consumed a glassfull of chocolate whey minutes ago.

I am so happy and I wouldn’t get tired saying that over and over again. I hope everyone’s feeling the same way too.
