If You Know What I Mean

Sometimes, someone tells you something and suddenly you make a big deal out of it. And the frequency of that someone telling you that kind of something makes you think that there's something behind what that someone is saying.

It sucks a lot, I tell you.

'Zup, Brain?

My brain's in a good mood today, probably because I figured out what to do.

The exhilarating feeling's kicking in. *insert hallelujah choir here.*

Move, Brain!

I never liked being idle when I'm stuck (at work) trying to figure out the right code to work with. I'm boasting my PHP skills, yes, but sometimes I can't figure it out. I just can't.

But, the feeling after having it done is exhilarating.

C-5 Drift

Around 5 PM yesterday, I and a bunch of org friends met up at Megamall for Mayee's post-birthday celebration. It turns out, Mayee wasn't coming, so it was just the six of us (I, Janina, Jase, DJ, Paul, Chris) who were up for a Wall-E movie. Jamie was also there, but she decided to go home after their bowling -- they went Bowling by the way, around 2 PM and I wasn't there. :)

Chris said that we meet up at Theatre (or theater?) 1 after Paul deposits things in his car and Jamie is accompanied to her ride home. Tempted by the Drummania machine's presence, I rushed to it and had one game -- just one, and that's it. One lang talaga, pramis. Pramis. Walang joke lang.

Then I, Jase, and Janina met Chris and the guys sa movie house. Turns out, 6:30 pa pala yung movie, eh 5:30 pa noon. Paul proposed that we go to Eastwood to Wall-E there, and so we all agreed.

Pero may catch! Mag-ro-Road Race kami from Megamall to Eastwood (kasi si Paul at Chris ay may car). Una, joke joke lang, pero biglang nag-sigehan! Nag-bato-bato-pick kami to see who goes with who -- I and Janina go with Paul, and Jase and DJ with Chris. Tapos nagkaroon ng pustahan. Ayun, shet! Serious na! Ang pusta was, whoever gets there first buys the popcorn. Done deal na, tapos biglang nag-Ready, Set, Go...

Naka-park si Chris doon pa sa malayo, tapos si Paul ay naroon lang sa may floor below us, so it was an advantage on our part. We breezed through Ortigas then C-5 without the sight of them, meaning we were definitely ahead of them. Tapos nakarating na kami sa may Eastwood and we were headed for the parking lot when...

"Shet, sila Castro nasa harapan natin," Chris said, as DJ narrated after the race.

"Tangina, si Chris nasa likod natin..." Si Paul naman.

I tried reading the plate number of the silver car behind us -- ZPE ... (I didn't care what the next numbers were...) "What the fuck, IT'S CHRIS!"

Tangina, tangina. Then, we were swerving para hindi sila maka-pass through. Tapos biglang may split way sa harap namin. Doon kami dumaan sa left, tapos biglang nag-zoom past si Chris doon sa may right! SHET TAE, SHET!

Eh di ayun naunahan kami tapos pag-akyat ng Parking Lot, biglang nagbabaan si DJ at Jase. Tae! Eh di bumaba na rin kami ni Janina, and we all ran to the entrance near the parking lot.

Jase was easy to beat doon sa running, so naging kalaban ko talaga rito was DJ. My grade school running skills are still with me, I said. There were a lot of people doon sa floor below the movie house, and what was separating me and DJ from the finish line (yung cashier counter ng tickets) were people and security guards staring at us and an escalator.

And shet! Naunahan ko si DJ, tapos biglang pagka-turn ko doon sa may escalator, nakasingit siya. SHET SHET SHET! Tinatry kong hilahin siya pababa, pero no...

I was split seconds away from beating them, but I wasn't able to. ARGH! Sayang! This proves na may competition nga! Haha! Ayun, we bought popcorn, but as a sign of sportmanship (said Chris), sila naman ang bibili ng drinks! Weepee!

Tapos ayun, nanood kami ng Wall-E. Namatay si Eve, dahil pinoison siya ng pizza plant. WAHAHAHA! Nood kayo, dal-E!

Tapos after, kumain kami sa Teriyaki Boy. May bago na naman silang pakulo doon sa paper mats, spot the difference naman. Spot 17 differences to be exact, and isa doon sa mga nakakagagong differences ay yung...

PICTURE 1 ------------- PICTURE 2.

Yun eh! Si DJ ang naka-notice, pero iniignore lang talaga namin kasi common-sense eh. Pero noong hiningi namin kuya yung answers, aba! Isang malaking TOWOWHOA ang inabot namin. Kasama nga siya! Haha! Nakakabobo lang. XD

Sunod, nag-Blizzard kaming lahat sa Dairy Queen. Si Jase pangalan doon sa resibo niya Chase, Alfonso doon kay Paul, at Free doon kay Janina. Kaya noong tinawag yung order ni Janina, sabi ni kuya, "One cup blizzard for..."

Tapos ayun talk, talk while sitting doon sa may podium doon sa may gitna ng Eastwood, then nag-Timezone ulit kami at nag-Videoke, tapos umuwi na.

Blog's relevance to the title ba ang iyong hanap? Ayun, umuwi na kami, ako at Jase naman kay Chris, tapos si Janina and DJ with Paul, papunta kami Katipunan. Then parang nagkaroon ng mini-race. We were trying to beat Paul ahead, tapos pagdating doon sa may underpass nagkaroon ng aksyon.

Chris got into a driving frenzy mode and suddenly overtook Paul. We entered the C-5 underpass and Chris made a sharp right turn, and sent the car drifting at a ten-degree angle.

Napa-WHOA na lang as I was sent flying sa may left door doon sa back seat. Ako lang mag-isa, kaya feel na feel ko yung aksyon. TAE! We were drifting for like 5 seconds, and the wheels were screeching. Tapos, noong tinatry mag-recover ni Chris from the drift, he kinda lost control and...

...

...

... we were inches away from a near-death experience. Chris didn't totally lose control naman, hindi lang niya ma-counter steer. Hehe. Pramis, muntik na kaming mag-wall. The guys behind us (sila Paul) even witnessed it. But placing that aside...

IT WAS ONE FUCKING HELL OF A RIDE MEEEHHHHHNNNN! =))

The rush was great, and that topped the night, bukod pa roon sa race. WAHAHA!

Children's Sketchbook Will Save My Ass

Guess why. :)

Asa Naman

Palagi na lang.

Home Early

Within the past year, I've never been home as early as 6 PM (8 PM even). Today, I'm home 5:30 PM.

Achievement! \:D/

I have a machine problem due Wednesday kasi. LOL.
