Floatin' down that old river boy, all my worries far behind,
Floatin' down that old river boy, leave old memories way behind,
Yesterday is slowly fadin',
All my life, I've been waitin', for this time.
Floatin' down that old river boy, leaves me feelin' good inside,
Floatin' down that old river boy, tryin' to get to the other side,
Yesterday is slowly fadin',
I been waitin', now forever, for this ride.
Ride the river in this boat, ride the river.
Ride the river in this boat, ride the river.
Ride the river in this boat, ride the river.
Ride the river in this boat, ride the river.
Floatin' down that old river boy, all my worries far behind,
Floatin' down that old river boy, leave old memories way behind,
Yesterday is slowly fadin',
I been waitin', now forever, for this ride

I tried to see if German's can really sound cheesy.
I typed this in Google Translate:
"I love you forever and ever baby"
and got this German translation:
"Ich liebe dich für immer und ewig Baby"
No. The German's cannot sound cheesy.

It's a couple of days early before this year dies but I'd like to say my goodbye's to you now, Old 2008. You are by far my most memorable year. In your infancy, you made me realize how much of a kid I am. You made me taste my first sip of adulthood by getting me involved and in an office scandal by making me fix it for everyone. I grew up after that incident and together we entered our adolescence. It was most difficult when I didn't know what to do or where to go. I was lost in our box there at Pasong Tamo. I was inside it but was lost. The box burned and fire surrounded me. I had to go low, and crawl for breathable air. I had to do menial jobs, unfit for my type. It was difficult yes, but I made it through. I grew up from adolescence and was given more responsiblity. I earned their trust bit by bit, as you earned mine. You, 2008, began to be a better year for me. We went places in our youth. We lived the young life. We drank dead everyday in Cebu, smoked our lungs dry and black and we did the what we thought we will never do. We did. They let you carry more responsiblity but they never gave you a break. I guess that's adulthood. Planning ahead. I planned for the day that you will die. I mapped out a timetable for my life after this year is done but senility struck and you introduced me to Her. You knew from the moment you introduced us that it was impossible. You knew that she'd be carrying on a child after you're gone but still you introduced us. Merciless senility. Loss of judgement. Return to childhood. And then I realized how much I hadn't grown up in the course of your life. Then I realized that the lesson you wanted to teach me.
Last night we had our ceremony. With a tobacco and a bottle of whisky which I bought with my last few pesos of this year's salary, we said our goodbyes. In a couple of days you will die, and I remain to live. Introduce me to your child well. Tell your child of our experiences together, of the comedies and tragedies, of the stories, how ever small they are. Tell your child about these things 2008, so that your child might look at me with mercy and love and be a much kinder friend that what you were to me.

I've had the flu for several days now and today's my second day on sick leave from work. Yesterday I attempted to go to work but after only 30 minutes at my desk, I had a "fight" with one of my closest office mate-friends over the phone. Then, I decided I wasn't fit for work anymore. I went home and rested. I never get sick. My last fever was five years ago and now, two days of sick leave - that's something for me think about.
Lately I've been thinking about the what ifs in my career. I have now a stable job, with good friends, in a very convenient place but something in this scenario isn't right. Why do I have this feeling that this stability and this comfort are but walls that my job put before me, which I allowed? Walls can be protection and security but at the same time be one's limitation. My situation somewhat reminds me of the allegory of the cave, but in reverse.
I am born free, without walls or labels or names or uniforms. And then someone builds a wall in front around me. No light comes in save for a tiny beam coming from a peep hole. Then I let these people tie me up so that my head can't turn and see only what's in front of me. And then I see shadow puppets through the tiny beam of light. I accept the cave as reality, and the shadow puppets as gods. And I forget there ever was a world outside.
Reality kicked me at my balls and reminded me that the only reality is nothing. After graduation, you enter the real world. Your only limit is yourself. Look, right now I am being my limitation. I let myself sucked in by the global cult believing that the real world is a world wherein you must be a corporate whore and be fucked by every balding dirty old man. But then again, reality is nothingness. You build your own walls, your own little space, your own planet, your own reality, not them, not the cult, and especially not the dirty old balding man with a thick wallet and a fake, rehearsed smile. If thy wilt be fucked, then be.

I finally bought for myself a new book. This one's entitled From Hell, written by Alan Moore and illustrated by Eddie Campbell.
Here's the cover:
The book's a 500-page monster, mainly tackling the Jack the Ripper murder cases that took place during the Victorian Era. It's loaded with information and is said to be backed up by PhD worthy research. I tried reading the first two pages of the book and understood what the reviews mean. I am seriously scared of reading it because I fear that I will not understand a thing. Anyway, I start really reading it tonight.
Want sample pages of this book? Check out this link from Top Shelf Productions:

In other news, my brother was held up a couple of weeks ago (along with all the other passengers of the jeep). His cellphone and my older brother's PSP was taken from him but thank God he's okay. Magpapasko na kasi so ingat nalang tayong mag commuters diyan. Based on my brother's story, here are a couple of tips from me on how to choose a jeepney to ride:
1) Check out the people who are sitting beside the "door" of the jeep. That's where holduppers sit so that they can control the people inside. If you can, you go sit beside the door instead - para wala na silang pwesto. If a pregnant woman is sitting by the door, that's a damn safe jeep.
2) Check out the person sitting beside the driver. Holduppers usually work in three's: two sit by the door at the back of the jeep, and one sit at the passenger's seat. This is so, he can point a gun at the driver (sorry for being graphic). Go sit at the outer seat beside the driver because that's where the assholes sit, so go and steal their place.
3) If you sit by the entrances, you steal their strategic location and you can easily "jump out" of the vehicle. (hahaha) - but seriously.
Anyway, because my brother's got no phone anymore and since he got good grades this semester, I gave him my old Razr (which was my parent's grad gift to me) and bought myself a new friend...
a Motorola Rokr E8, because I think I've been a good employee. It is a pretty good buy actually. Great value for money. Katas ng 13 month, ba.

This Modern Love
To be lost in the forest
To be cut adrift
You've been trying to reach me
You bought me a book
To be lost in the forest
To be cut adrift
I've been paid
I've been paid
Don't get offended
If I seem absent minded
Just keep telling me facts
And keep making me smile
Don't get offended
If I seem absent minded
I get tongue-tied
Baby, you've got to be more discerning
I've never known what's good for me
Baby, you've got to be more demanding
I will be yours
I'll pay for you anytime
You told me you wanted to eat up my sadness
Well jump on, enjoy, you can gorge away
You told me you wanted to eat up my sadness
Jump right
Baby, you've got to be more discerning
I've never known what's good for me
Baby, you've got to be more demanding
Jump left
What are you holding out for?
What's always in the way?
Why so damn absent-minded?
Why so scared of romance?
This modern love breaks me
This modern love wastes me
Do you wanna come over and kill some time?
Tell me facts, tell me facts, tell me facts
Tell me facts
Throw your arms around me
To be lost in the forest
To be cut adrift
You've been trying to reach me
You bought me a book
To be lost in the forest
To be cut adrift

Mono Virus
by Eraserheads
“‘Twas the week before christmas
And all through the town
All the people were trippin
Then somethin came down..”
I never knew i had it
Day after day the dullness grew
Then one day i just felt plain lazy
Yes, i have it
I have it
I am infected
Mono virus
I got the symptoms
I need the cure
I want to go to bed
Kiss me, kiss me
Get ahead on the door
You wont see it comin’
Day after day after day
Tedium
Then one day you’ll just feel plain stupid
oh yes you have it
You gotta have it, you gotta have it
Well you have it, you have it
You are infected
Repetition, same shit everyday
Every year change is forbidden
Restrained by the fear
Apathically speakin
Its been a long time
The cake remains the same
Now beat on the doldrums
Beat on the doldrums
Now beat on the doldrums

Why the hell is Yoko Kanno that good/fantastic/awsome/godly/hot a musician?
ay isang tugmaang salitang Inggles na binubuo nang mga salitang:
1) Dead: salitang naglalarawan sa mga panggalan na tapos na ang taning ng buhay
at
2) Line: ang nabubuo sa pagdudugtong nang dalawang magkahiwalay na linya.
Pag pinagtugma ang dalawang panggalang ito, nakakabuo nang panibagong salitang may sariling ibigsabihin.
3) Deadline: ang tumutulak sa tao para bumilis nang takbo o trabaho. Maaaring ikamatay ang pagdikit dito. Kumakain ito nang alaala at ulo nang mga sanggol na hindi pa nabubuo nang isang magasawang hindi pa nagkikita. Pumuputol din ito nang puno at naglalabas nang maitim na usok na nakakasira nang Ozone Layer. Ito ang paboritong inumin nang mga Español noon bagong kolonya palang nila ang Cuba.
