I haven't gotten out of bed the entire day because I haven't been feeling well. Consequently, I haven't eaten any meals. So before settling in to work at Kasagingan, I went to Taps to order some Tosilog. The moment I sat on the stool, somebody sat beside me and grabbed my flab. HUH?! It was one of my closest friends from high school, Neil. After eating my Tosilog, I sat with him and his friends over at Kasagingan's smoking area. After a while, Wenna came in with her sister and her sister's friend. Wenna is another high school batchmate of ours. Although we were never classmates, I consider her one of my trusted friends. After chatting with Neil and his friends, I went inside to start working. After an hour or so, I noticed Neil talking to some people outside. It was two of our high school classmates/friends, Bibert and Bbboy. It was a reunion of sorts. We didn't really sit with each other to bond but seeing them already gave me that "warm fuzzy feeling" Ate Aileen always talks about. I feel better already. :D

Heroes Seson 2 on September 24!
It is human nature to look to the past... to the road we have traveled... to what has so far defined us... but only by leaving our past behind can we then push onward into an unknown tomorrow... into the dawn of a new future... into the light of a new beginning. Excited ka na ba? Ako super excited na!!! RAWRRR! Warm, fuzzy feeling... :D
Is it Acceptable to Diss Differently-Abled Persons?
I am now at a local cafe, drinking tea and enjoying free WiFi while working online. There's a group of people here who are unabashedly and shamelessly dissing differently-abled people out loud. They are mimicking the way people with a cleft palate talk. And it's really disturbing to hear them laugh out loud and make fun of the differently-abled. I'm no saint and I must have, at some point in my life, made fun of them too. But at this point in my life, I don't think that doing so is acceptable and tolerable. Do you?
Sick!
I am sick. Yesterday, I already had a headache so I took one paracetamol. Lo and behold... I am allergic to paracetamol so big blotches formed on my eye lids and the area under my eyes. To make matters worse, it became hard to breathe. So I had to take both an antihistamine and an asthma medicine. GRRR... I just slept the entire day today. Woke up at around 4 pm and now I'm working na ulit. Already feeling better but not yet 100% well. I am already allergic to mefenamic acid, ibuprofen, and aspirin... ngayon naman... pati paracetamol. ANG SAYA-SAYA!!!
I Miss Blue Skies Katipunan!
I was chatting with a Manila-based gamer last night. When I learned that he regularly plays at Blue Skies Katipunan, I suddenly felt sad. I miss that place. That's the place where I used to live. It was my home for a number of months before I came back here. All the bantays there already knew me and would give me the best units. The night guy there would give me unit number 1. Back in 2004, unit number was the only unit with a PLDT internet connection. All the other units were connected to Bayantel. It was the fastest unit. It was beside the counter/cashier's table. I would play hours of Warcraft: Frozen Throne ladder games there over Battle.net. Once I stayed there from 10 pm until 2 pm the next day. Huhu... I miss that place. If I go back to Manila for vacation, I will make it a point to visit that place.
