so long... nails

this might be an "off" topic for a guy, but, who cares... blog ko 'to. ;) okay..

so... i tried to grow my fingernails longer than they usually do. kasi kung mag-gupit ako ng kuko, sagad talaga, tipong walang space na pagsisiksikan ng dumi. ayun. even though dirt and whatever gets "deposited" under them, tiniyaga kong pahabain at linisin. kahit asar na ko, go pa rin. pero, parang pangit tingnan. yung yung white part, di talaga puti, parang dirty yellow.

kahit na-elibs ako dahil napahaba ko mga kuko ko, na-miss ko talaga yung dating maikli. almost two weeks din akong 'di nag-trim. ang hirap! kaya kaninang umaga, bago pumasok sa eskwela... goodbye long nails... welcome back, trimmed! hay...

am i developing a fetish on my nails???

drops over my head

hay... it's me again... bothering to clutter this worthless blog. since classes are suspended today... ano ba... uhmm... shet! wala lang akong magawa! i think my brain's not on "blog mode" today... baka dahil maulan.

i wish i do have a camera-phone or a digicam to capture my sketches on my "lesson plan" notebook. maybe i have around 10 - 20 sketches already, in which i used my cheap, handy ballpoint pen. astig daw... sabi nung mga nakakakita. flattered naman ang lolo nyo... naa-astigan din ako (minsan) pero i don't think "maganda" siya by standards, astig lang tingnan. pero, napansin ko, medyo gumagaling na kong mag-sketch at mag-visualize ng mga bagay-bagay... at gumagaling ako 'pag nag-drowing ako habang nasa klase, lalo 'pag boring and uninteresting yung discussion. bakit kaya???

Purpose-driven Update
i haven't read the book in 3 days already. i'm supposed to read chapter 13 today, but i'm still at chapter 7. nagsimula pa naman ako magbasa july 1... hay, commitment...

i am dead... or so i thought.

whew, it's good to be back after quite some time... isn't it?
i was bothered by other things here in the Internet and there in the "real" world that i miss to post something here, even if so much thoughts and clutter twitch my mere existence. damn...

Covergirl

yup! ellen adarna WAS on the cover of Candy's june ish. compared to the july 2005 ish, the shot is really a LOT like her. kudos to Candy for the nice cover! sadly, i didn't grabbed a copy... yet. but i really planned to have one since early June. but school expenses didn't allow me to. yeah right, it may "only" cost Php 85, but Php 85 is a luxury i seldom afford. though i have some spare money, i let this one pass. what's the use of back issues sold at Filbar's? hah! a way to justify my "ka-kuriputan". ;)

... some movies

Fight Club. viewed: twice. where: at "Studio 23 Presents". why: 'coz i like it.
yeah, this is one of the movies i would watch again, and again. i don't know why it never fails to have my attention. maybe its so insightful about the concept of modern living... stress... insomnia... modern "slaves"... being "in control"... and letting go of everything... physical pain to relieve stress, to be "free".

Love Actually.viewed: once. where: rented VCD from Video City, Sta. Luciawhy: primarily, as a prop for a class report about Video City. secondly, to watch it (duh?)
"i feel it in my fingers, i feel it in my toes. love is all around you, c'mon and let it show..."actually, "love" must be replaced with "christmas" and "show" with "snow". well, to fit the setting of the movie... christmas in UK. hmm..... i guess you'll just have to watch it. it's hard to explain, or tell. just one thing... i admire the boy who professed his "love" for joanna... ;)

Purpose-driven?

today, i started to read Rick Warren's "The Purpose-driven Life" in a dental clinic while waiting for my younger brother whose braces were adjusted. i originally planned to read it on my pace, but i didn't. i followed the rule "one chapter a day, for forty days". i'll just try if it will work on me. let's see after forty days... ;)

me... realist?

i thought so. but i was dead wrong. i am still afraid to go out, open myself to the complex world. maybe that's why the world doesn't reveal itself to me. i see what i only want to see, not what i need to see. i fail to see through the ugly, i lust look. i don't know. maybe i'm still confused with myself.

and i earlier glanced the back cover of an Alvin Toffler book that said: we live in a very complex world but we only give simplistic responses. could that be?
