Now before you get some crazy ideas, let me explain. I was so darn bored last night. I asked Marvin to fetch me up at home but he couldn't leave Cavite because he was sick. So I called up Raymond. Who's Raymond? He's a good friend. He has some love problems and I felt obliged to be there beside him. You know, lend some shoulders. Hahaha... Alright! I was bored. And I sure needed company. He was free so we met even though it was like 2am.
So we met at Munoz and then decided to go somewhere. Well, we were undecided actually. Until I opened the possibility of going to QC Circle. I have been there that late with Liz who was pregnant that time. We took some pictures of the monument for her school project. Hahaha and toured around a little. We were like lovers. Too bad I am gay.
Back to Circle. So we ended [am speaking about Raymond] up not entering QC Circle. It was closed. Was shocked and disappointed. That was the only place I know near which didn't close. But it was so we walked around... I mean literally, around the joint. We saw some guys who just stood there like waiting for the stars to come down and touch them. Except that there ain't any stars at all. I supposed they're doing their own business but I couldn't help but stare at them, observe them and therefore I conclude. They were pick-up boys. Hahaha... I wonder how much money they make. I am considering entering the business myself if real job is still nowhere near. Hahaha...
So we ended up here, at PHILCOA, surfing the net and writing this blog... Well actually, typing. And this will end here. Raymond's a bit bored. I guess boredom is contagious. Hahaha... I'll write more about this in the morning. Ta-ta.

And God Has Risen Come Three Days
Actually this blog entry has nothing to do with God or anything spiritual. It has just been three days that I stayed at home doing practically nothing productive. Well, if you consider surfing the net, accepting friends in Friendster, Downelink, Tickle, Connexion, Berkzter, Pinoyster, and Myspace productive then, there's productivity for you.
Look. I have been craving to go out but my budget just can't afford it. My bank account has been cancelled due to not following the cut-off amount of 500 Php. So Last time I had to ask my friend that the money be deposited to his account. You see, I still ask money for my parents even though I have graduated like a month ago or so. Where would I get money anyway, than them? I feel so dependent, which I shouldn't be. Had I only accepted the job I should have been earning my own cash now. But hey, like I said, and I am gonna say this one more time, I didn't like the work. So it's really not my fault. But whose fault is it anyway? Let's leave that question hanging.
Three days! Imagine that! Being at home, being bored to the point of comatose. Especially now that the Internet ain't working at home. Gosh, I feel so useless.
I talked to some friends last night on YM conference and they too do practically nothing. Some of them meets everyday watching Friends DVDs. That's it. I could develop a headache doing that. Staring at the TV screen. Well at least they have something to enjoy themselves with. And me, NONE.
Joan and I will apply for call centers this Wednesday. Call Center for a graduate? Not bad I think. I will work there for like two years, earn enough money and then pursue what every journalism graduate should be doing - write. I don't find anything wrong working in call center. It is good money and good money is always better, isn't it?

ABC-5 Disaster
03:28 PM
It has been like more than a month since graduation and I still haven't got a job. After turning down the job in Medical Observer, I got a call from ABC-5 for an examination the next day [Wednesday], so I went up there with Marvin. There were two exams basically. One where you need to write a script for TV News with both the audio and the video. They gave us the materials. We basically did the formatting and the script. Ed Lingao was the one who gave us the exam which is more like an exercise.
I finished the first exercise ahead of others. Why wouldn't I? I was forced to actually. Marvin was waiting outside in the building's lobby, sleeping. You see he just got from his graveyard shift in a call center in Makati. And I dragged him all the way down to Novaliches to accompany me. He didn't forced me to hurry the exam though. It was more like I'm-worried-about-him-sleeping-there kind of thing. More of an inner drive, for him of course.
Mr. Lingao liked my first exercise so I went on to my second. He gave me two names [Comelec spokesperson and ABC-5 spokesperson] to look for and interview. About what? That's the thing. I had to think of an angle, of questions, of a story to write. More like he was testing me if I have the nose for news or stories that are newsworthy. After finishing it, I came back to his office and after reading it to him, his face turned into a total disaster. He said he was frustrated. He liked my first exercise but the second one totally fucked-up.
He said he's hold on to my application and would call me after assessing the other applicants. More like get-outta-here mister! Hahaha.. Oh well, I know I didn't pass and maybe I ain't right for that kind of work so I don't feel frustrated at all.
My plan is to work for two years in a call center, earn money and then look for a job with regards to my course.

[Untitled]
4:49PM
I am in eternal bliss. Love covers my whole room. The smell of sweet scent of satisfaction and contentment fills my every breath.
Puffing my cigarette while watching Marvin go into deep slumber is more than I can ask for. I pray he dreams of me while he lay motionlessly beautiful on my looney toon-covered bed. I pray his brain and heart remembers every detail of what happened. I pray he never leaves me.
Today marks our first month anniversary. We have been together for 9 hours and 24 minutes since I met him ealier. And every moment of it is unforgettable.
I never thought love could find me and draw me into him. I was in the dark. I was once one of those people who cursed and hated love because it didn't caught us. But now it did. And I am loving every second of it.
I wanna burst into tears of happiness and excitement. I thank the heavens for Marvin. I thank the moon for the dim light which uncovered every lust and love from us. I thank the sun for shining through my once dark and cold days, for melting my heart which froze through times of disappointments. My heart's finally beating and it beats love.
I love you Marvin. Happy First Month anniversary.

Job Update
11:32pm
I met up with Andz earlier at Xavier in Greenhills, Ortigas. She wanted me to apply as a nursery teacher there. She teaches there for like two years now. Compensation's good plus you get to have a teaching partner or something like that. But like I told her? What am I gonna teach there? SEX?"
She then accompanied me to Makati to return some stuff in the company I just quitted from. After which we met up with his insurance agent and another friend of hers. We ate dinner and then she talked to her agent while I half-heartedly listened and looked like I was interested. The insurance guy even told me if I was interested to apply in their company but told me I was young to be in an insurance stuff.
We then went to Greenbelt and stayed at Starbucks. What greater way to end the day that a cup of rhumba and a few sticks of winston lights. We talked about life, about Marvin, about the koreans [this cute Korean twins he tutored before], his cousins etc, etc. She also talked me into going with here in Bagiuo this weekend. She will meet the Korean twins so I could finally see them at last. She's been pushing me to go with her in one of her teaching sessions before but I hesitated.
The church was there so we also stayed there for like 15 minutes. It has been like two years since I entered a church. I actually prayed. :) Well, it's always good to look up once in a while.
When I got home, my dad told me that ABC-5 called and asked me to go to the station for an exam. Wish me luck everyone. Hehehe...

People Are So Rude!!!
People have been so rude to me lately. I opened an account on downelink.com, an online meeting place for gays two days ago. Then I made a forum telling everyone to rate me. They were so rude. The comments my God! Someone said he hates people from third world countries and that I look like I haven't eaten for years. Like that was so negative.
Good thing, some people ain't the rude as the rest.

My First Day At Work And I Quit
My very first job and I quit.
Last week my father arrived and told me that I have an aunt who works at an advertising company. He told me to go there and bring my resume. I did and I got interviewed the same day. The comapny wasn't an ad agendy after all. Medical Observer was the name of the comapny. Apparently they make medical jounrals for doctors. I was shocked of course. My father tricked me!!!
But I went through the interview anyhow. I was called to go there last thursday for another interview. This time it was the editor-in-chief who asked me questions. And then after the interview I was asked to go to an office where I was discussed with the policies, the contract signing supposedly today and I was given an early assignment. She gave me these books and papers and stuff about some disease I was to write about. Foolishly, I accepted the job eventhough I wasn't really sure what I am going to do there. I don't write technical stuff. Fashion is what i do best, music, movies etc. Though they told me they have issues on those things once in a while but about 90% is all about medicine.
I was accepted and will start today. Well, supposedly. Only, I didn't go to the office as requested. So they texted me to return the stuff they lent me. I will later.
Hayyy.. so I am back to being bum again. Professional? Hope not.

Same Old Day, Same Old Me
6:37 PM
Nothing special has happened today. I woke up at 9 in the morning and did my laundry. My father asked me to fetch my brother in his school and so I left my laundry half-finished. Got back home at 4 pm and continued washing my clothes and some pants. Laundry ain't that many so I didn't got tired. Then the rains started pouring. I wanted to sleep but I couldn't. I just laid myslef on my bed with thoughts of Marvin. I miss him already, the way he smiles, his sexy body, the way he walks (harharhar), his kisses and everything about him. I love every part of him, every imperfections. Now I know how it is to be really in love.
Marvin is such a wonderful guy. Almost perfect. And I love him so much...

Basa sa Ulan
I was in Makati yesterday applying for a supposed ad agency. My father arrived earlier yesterday and told me that some relative of ours was gonna interview me. He said it was some ad agency. So I figured maybe I could try it out.
So I went there through MRT with my cousin. Then we took a cab hoping the driver knew the building. We haven't got the vacuest idea where it was. My father just told me it was in Pasong Tamo Makati and the building's name was King's Court.
The driver knew the place but the traffic was so bad he has to drop us off and told us we could walk to get to the place. And we did. We walked... and walked.. and walked until we got tired and rested for a while at Mister Donut. Then when we were about to continue the ultimate search for the building, it rained... so hard.
We stayed for a while hoping the rain would stop but it didn't. So we continued the search anyway. We asked every guard that we come across with but to no avail. They didn't know where the place was. Until the "supposed relative" answered my message and texted me the exact location. It was like we were going around in circles. We turned left then turned left again then right and we would find ourselves in the same spot where we started off.
We continued anyway until we saw this gurad and asked. He pointed his fingers to the building which was like the place we started. We were so exhausted and wet. Wet because of the rain and maybe because of the sweat.
We reacehd the building and figured that it had no name from the outside or from the road. That was why we had a hard time finding it. Now we did... after like 3hours of walking. We entered the building very wet, tired and exhausted.
It wasn't an ad agency. It was a medical jounral something... But I was there so what the heck, I said.
I was interviewed by "supposed relative." She asked a lot of things; my salary preference, what i love doing, my family, etc... The she told me that they would call me for an interview within this week.
And earlier today they did. My first job interview will be on May 20 2pm at their building. Whatever happens there It would be totally okay.

Southmall and Boredom
It's 1:40pm. Am at Southmall here at Las Pinas. My boyfriend and I are supposed to meet here. He's near this place. Arrived here at around 11am and called his cellphone but nobody's answering. Well actually, Aubrey Miles is the one answering the phone. It's one of those you download wherein somebody will receive your call (more specifically celebrities like Aubrey and Pia Guano) but to the person you are calling he/she will only here his/her phone ringing... Did you get me?
Anyways, so here I am all alone right now. Took my lunch, had my coffee and cigarette and called him again and again... Looks like he's really sleeping... tight. Well after this I'll just have to keep ringing him... Dunno wanna go home disappointed. And this place is like a hundered miles away from mine... Well that's an exaggeration but the heat outside while I was going here was unbearable.

Job Hunt Begins
It has been weeks since I graduated and I need to look for a job soon. And it starts today. Although I have been to ABC-5 two days ago with my friends. Today, my target is Summit Philippines in Ortigas.
Been bum for so long I got so bored. All I do is sleep, watch Tv and videos, surf the net for porn (hahaha) well not exactly, check my Friendster which is by the way is like malfunctioning all the time, my Friendzy (where I met Marvin, the love of my life), my Connexion (the newest), my Tickle (Ringo before) and my mails. I also chat when I'm done.
Back to the jobhunt. I really don't know what I wanna do. I would love to end up in advertising but I like to work too for a fashion magazine like Cosmopolitan or Preview.I am also thinking of going into advertising and at the same time being a contributor in a fashion magazine. But then again, I have to apply first, don't I? Can't expect companies to call me when they don't have my resume. Hahaha...
Well people wish me luck aight!

Have you heard of the beheading?
I was watching TV earlier and saw a flash report regarding a new beheading at Iraq... or I am not sure about the place. God! Where has humanity gone. Those people behind this should be ashamed of themselves. If they have hatred over Bush then why not behead him instead. Why involve a civilian whose family i'm sure right now is in deep agony and hatred as well.
Terror really is in the air again. This incident will sure be BIG considering that the Philippines is known for its support for Bush. GMA should withdraw the country's support for the one who trully spreads terror around the globe.
War aint the answer at the very beginning.
