NIGHT RECONNAISSANCE[hyperspeed typing | fidgety]
i like sleeping late. nanay does not like me sleeping late. she wants me in bed by 10pm. that is way too early. i pretend to go to bed. but i go back downstairs for peaceful online time without "teeeett! tulog na!!" every 5 minutes.
the lights have to be turned off when while i am sneakily using the comp. only light coming from the monitor keeps me company in the darkness. i do not mind.
except this one particular night..
i heard a rustle of paper against an unknown thing somewhere in the darkness. i ignored it. i heard it a second time, it was closer now. i was too preoccupied with Y!M and Multiply to care. when suddenly...A FLYING COCKROACH LANDED ON MY MONITOR!!!!!!
PUTANGINAPAKSHETANAKNGTOKWA!!!!
EEEEK!!!!! I HATE COCKROACHES!!!! i mean, i usually dont scream and freak out at the sight of 'em but it was THISCLOSE to my face goddamnit! :)) and and, shrieking wasnt an option coz then i'd wake everyone up and i'd be caught red-handed using the comp. THE EFFING LITTLE VERMIN CANNOT WIN LIKE THAT.
i instinctively went into a fetal position on my seat so my face can hide behind my thunder thighs. :)) i heard the cockroach fly away and land somewhere [not anywhere near me i hope] BUT SINCE ITS NOT DEAD YET, I KNOW IT'LL BE BACK.
i want to look for it and knock it out with my trusty slipper or rolled-up newspaper, but i'd need to turn on a light. HUHUHU IT KNOWS I CANT DO THAT.
PLUS! IT CAN FLY!!! :)) i'm scared of trying to look for it coz it might catch me by surprise and/or bring its friends to
take me down.
so here i sit, jumping up at anything that sounds remotely like an insect thats about to attack, fingers jerky, eyes wary, in fear for my life.
i wonder why i'm still up, then.
oh right. coz after that incident, whatever sleepiness i felt got totally wiped out.
i'd wish for all the cockroaches in the world to die, but that would affect the ecosystem. and biological niche stuff. :|
~*~
maybe this encounter with the cockroach kind wants to tell me something.................
FUCK YOU ALL NO WAY I'M SLEEPING EARLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BLEEEHHHH!!!!
[edit]
the cockroach DID come back. i felt it on my leg! yuuuuck. but i had enough sanity left to shake it off and whack it with my slipper.
TAKE THAT SUCKAH I WIN!!!!!!
i will find the answer in Peels.

FLOWERS IN THE ATTICAAAHH HIGHSCHOOL. there can never be a time quite like it. XD
i went "home" again today. :D everything seemed so familiar yet sooo new!! we finally got to use that bridge connecting the highschool building to the gym. damn i wish they'd thought of that when they were having the gym constructed. that place is so convenient and bright and refreshing! then again maybe i'm just being really all alumni-like and optimistic. hahaha.
invaded the current seton notes staff and office. hahaha.
Patrick's hair = comedy. :)) . it's kind of sad the first issue hasn't been released yet and it's frickin october but i hope they manage. XD after all, i can't really say we did a spectacular job of being on schedule when our batch managed the school paper. hehehe.
~*~
some of our former teachers told me i look happier now. i dont know how i didnt look as happy then or how or why i look happier now. i'm just going to bask in their compliments. :))
and even though i hadnt seen most of the people i was with today for ages, it still felt like we never really parted ways at all.
i really appreciate that. :)
i still love ZdN. :)
~*~
went to ATC after visiting Seton. it was the first time i was riding a jeepney after a looooooong time. i was just shocked at how the fare skyrocketed. :))
P13 from Casimiro to ATC??
OMGWTFBBQ.also i re-learned a few lessons on the Art of Jeepney Riding.
1. do not sit near the driver because you will constantly be handing over payments and change.
2. even if the barker says "kasya pa apat!", DO NOT BELIEVE HIM. get off quickly, or you will end up in a ridiculous position in the jeepney aisle until someone gets off.
3. say "para [po]!" when you're at least 25m away from your stop. the driver may not have been paying attention and will not hit the brakes until you're far from where you should have been dropped off.

Tropic Thunder was epic.

FILL ME UPhere's something i think is worth blogging about! :D
so earlier i was on this bus, and as usual i was on the window seat. i was just watching the traffic outside when i saw my friend Ali from highschool...on the bus across the road!! what a fun coincidence. there we were, just with our commute-faces on, when we totally caught each other's eye and realized we recognize the person from the bus going the opposite direction. :))
~*~
i didn't get to watch Tropic Thunder today. BOO. and i commuted from Las Piñas to Katips for a two-hour play. HMMMN.
okay, think haaaaappppyyyy tttthhhooooooouuuuuggggggghhhhhttttsss.
...kidding.
=))
it's no big deal, i dont like it in Las Piñas so any excuse to go back to Katips even for a short while is awesome. :D

A SHORT HISTORY OF NEARLY NOTHING
i am currently infatuated with Amanda Palmer [from The Dresden Dolls] and her solo album
Who Killed Amanda Palmer?. ack! she's amazing! she's seriously disturbed, but she fascinates me as much as she scares me. XD
and when i finally break down, i want it to look like the video for that delightfully delirious song
Runs in the Family. :D
~*~
i wish i seriously opened up in my blogs, so i can get things out of my chest. given, the sekritzz journal has some insane shit in it complete with choppy sentences and colorful expletives. but that is unhealthy ranting and raving, and if only i can make myself coherent and blog properly then i can safely channel bad vibes out of my system. then again, who knows what a proper blog is, anyway? =/

WELCOME TO SHOCK ABSORBED.the new cyberhome of everyone's favorite afterthought! :D
since i've already been clogging up livejournal and multiply's bandwidth with my mental diarrhea, i figured 'why not clog up blogspot/blogger's as well?' haha.
right, so now i have a sekritzz journal [and duh, i can't link you there coz its a sekrit], a sabaw blog [in multiply] AND an "in-between" blog here.
this is where the coherent/[trying hard]profound stuff will go! [well, hopefully]
yay, aren't you excited?? :D
~*~
it was hard trying to find a layout that isn't too flashy, too plain, too emo or too colorful. i tried Shock Absorbed with about a dozen layouts before finally deciding on this quirky one that i wouldn't normally pick. XD
i still dont feel like it's the right layout for this blog, but its the closest to being so so far and i'm already tired from looking at all the wrong themes.
-_-
i will find the answer in Peels.
