HELPING WITH NO DEFINITE REWARD

OMG – My first ever PODCAST

Eherm… well, if it is my first, then it’s presumably my worst. Haha. What a prick I am. Hope you bother hovering your mouse pointer over the play button of mine. Huhuhu… I was inspired to Juice’s podcast. Tried to have at least one just to check my voice quality… if there’s any. ^_^. Definitely I WILL NOT SING. I can’t. haha. Training ground for broadcasting, perhaps? But honestly it was awkward to record while the rest of my relatives are around. It’s so intimidating.

I’ve uploaded a speakerphone version of today’s post. I hope you appreciate my effort just in case you don’t want to read and instead listen to my clumsy reading. ^_^ Don’t mind the mispronunciation and noseblowing. I was eating. ^_^

O BTW, fllnngl tagged me. Refer to this post about this Random Like yadda-yadda describing tags. Thanks fllnngl!
—————

Someone challenged me to do a wholly Tagalog post. Well actually, I had a wholly Tagalog post last April—a special post about my closest publication colleague Maria Theresa Pangilinan (well, if you don’t know her, they will tell you). Ok. I’ll do it for the 2nd time. Hope it’ll be my last.

Mind you… you’ll be expecting a lot of bulolled (coined term) vocabularies here. Haven’t been writing eloquently straight in Tagalog for the past few years that’s why I’m barbarically having a hard time writing news stories for Mr. Jun del Rosario (a former Senior Manager of ABS-CBN News Dept). Because of that, I feel like I’ve been sinful nationalistically to our Mother Land (hate you, Americanized/Westernized education)Might give you hints that there will be portions of TH (trying hard) highfalutin Tagalog terminologies which I’ve learned in reading Jose Rizal’s novels and, of course, conversations with some natives in Indang. Bisaya, pwede pa ako, ga. Korean, gure! Tagalog, sa email siguro for my Dad.

I said, 'Continue reading' monkeyboy ^_^

PAGTULONG NANG WALANG TIYAK NA KABAYARAN

Naging abala ako (*nose bleeds) sa aking akademiko nitong mga nagdaang araw. Naisip ko, unti-unti nang nalalanta ang aking mga talulot sa pagpasok ko sa pamantasan. Hindi tulad ng dati, kahit na magkasakit ako mula sa isanlibo’t isang kagat ng Aedes egypti sa pwet habang nakasalampak ako sa kama nang patiwarik, pinipilit ko ang katawan kong maligo’t magbihis para sa mga klaseng nakasalalay ang class standings ko noong highschool. Ngayon, kahit umambon-ambon lang diyan sa may labahan ng aming tinutuluyang apartment, pakiramdam ko katapusan na ng mundo.

Kantyaw ko nga sa aking mga kaklaseng masipag na gumigising sa akin tuwing alas-6 ng umaga, malapad ang kama, malambot ang unan, malamig ang hangin, mahalumigmig ang kapaligiran, makulimlim ang kalangitan Para saan ba ang ganitong mga biyaya ng Maykapangyarihan? Tutal, sabi ko sa kanila, hindi naman ako nag-aalala dahil matalino naman ako sa paningin ng faculty ng KabSU at hindi ko daw kailangan pang alalahanin ang aking mga marka sa aking kwadrado.

Ngayon, iniisip ko na lang ang prinsipyong parang utot ng aking kuya kung lumitaw sa aking kukote.

‘Kailangan kong yumaman bago mag-asawa’.

Mag-asawa—bibilang muna ako ng tupa bago ko marating ang kahahantungan ng paglagay ko sa aking sarili sa matiwasay na katahimikan. Kulang na lang, may sisiw sa ibabaw. Biskwit at kape, meron ka ba?

Pinapasikat ko na rin sa aking mga kaTROFAMILYKADA (na nagsimula dahil sa walang kakwenta-kwenta naming professor sa Intro to Film and Audiovisual Communication) ang aking CD burning business. Sabi ko, mula ngayon, adhikain ko nang palawigin ang kapangyarihan ng piracy sa Cavite dahil sa monopolistang Bill Gates na iyan na wala nang ginawang iba kundi magpalaki ng bayag sa paggagawa ng virus sa mundo ng internet. Kung alam niyo lang, gamit ko ngayon ang super-bago-ngunit-piratang Microsoft Office 2007 na nadownload ko lang gamit ang bago kong bestfriend na si Azureus. O di ba, close kami sa isa’t isa? Hindi lang Media Player 11 Hacked, Nero 7 Premium, Adobe Creative Suite 2, Internet Explorer 11, Limewire Pro 4.11, atbp ang iniregalo sa kin ni Azureus. Pati ang superlaking Encarta 2006, Rosetta Stone Japanese, Visual Basic, at ilan pang malalaking programs, nadownload kong lahat nang hindi ako gumagastos ng Php 500,000.00.

Sabi ko sa sarili ko, ang presyong pinapataw ng mga software developers ay kasakiman. Kung hindi pa ako mamimirata, kalian ko pa mapapag-aralan ang mga programs na ito na kakailangan ko sa aking trabaho? Hindi ba’t ang edukasyon ay karapatan ninuman? Buti na lang, ininspire ako ni Captain Sparrow. Piracy is the best policy.

Umalis ako kahapon para tulungan ang aking katropang si Kuya Emman. Kuya, dahil ayoko siyang tawaging Manong. Tatay na naming siya sa grupo. May proyekto kasing pinapagawa ang kanyang irog na ipapasa sa Huwebes. Eto ako, inialay ang aking talento para sa kanya. May bayad pa nga daw, sabi niya. Naku, okay na sanang walang kabayaran. Kaso, tinanong pa ako kung magkano ang pagpapagawa ng Powerpoint-based 2d animation with commentary story sa kin. Nahiya tuloy ako. Ni minsan, hindi ko pinresyuhan ang sinumang humihingi ng pabor sa akin. Basta matuwa lang sila kahit walang bayad, ok na sa kin yun.

Nakarating kami ng SM Manila mga 9 am ng umaga. Dahil sa mukhang mahuhuli sa pagdating ang irog ni Kuya Emman, minungkahi ko nang maghanap kami ng mga computer centers na pwedeng paggawan ng kanyang Powerpoint Presentation. Marami pala sa SM Manila ng mga computer centers. Ngunit hindi pala.

Kamakailan lang ay naglunsad ng malawakang pagkuyog ng kapulisan ng Maynila upang halughigin ang mga computer centers na gumagamit ng pirated softwares. Partikular sa hinanting nilang mga programs ay ang Microsoft Windows, Microsoft Office, at Adobe Creative Suite. Naging talamak diumano ang pagkalat ng mga computer centers na ilegal na gumagamit ng naturang mga softwares na hindi man lang binabayaran ang karampatang presyo ng lisensyang nakalakip sa bawat program.

Aun, nakaisang laksang siyam-siyam na namaga ang aming mga pata sa kakahanap ng mga computer centers na merong Powerpoint. Wala po kami, sagot ng mga hinayupak. Nasira ang umaga ko noon.

Ngunit sadyang masyadong maganda ang pagkakakanta ni Sarah Geronimo ng Bituing Walang Ningning (mahal kita, idol) at nakatsamba ang inyong lolo sa isang panget (wow! Panglait!) na computer shop na patagong nag-ooperate ng isang PC na may nakainstall na Powerpoint Year of the Kopong-kopong. Pinagtyagaan na naming gamitin ito kaysa naman sa mabigwasan ang aking Kuya Emman ng family ng kanyang irog kung dederetso kami sa kanilang tahanan.
Galante ang kanyang irog. As in super. Ilang sandal lang at nag-lunch time na. Umalis lang sandali ang mag-irog para daw bumili ng panglunch. Ilang minuto pa, may two-chicken meal na ako with frech fries, mineral water and large Coke na ako sa harap. Maya-maya pa, biglang kumaripas ng takbo si Kuya Emman. Extra rice daw para sa akin. Naku, naubos ko na ang manok. Nang magmeryenda alas-dos, bumili ng brownies. Naku, hindi ako ginugutom ng magsing-irog.

Natapos namin itong Powerpoint presentation mga alas-kwatro ng hapon. Humirit pa ang magsing-irog. Tinreat pa ako sa Burger King sa SM Manila na noo’y pinamugaran ng mga adik sa deodorant. Hindi, nandoon kasi ang First Day High gang. Wow, ganda pala ni Sosy High sa personal. Pandak pala talaga si Boy 2 Quizon. At, parang tore na tinubuan ng kagwapo-gwapong mukha itong boyfriend ni Kyla.

Tinanong ko sila kung bakit sila sobra kung gumastos para sa kin. Wag daw akong mag-alala. Gagastos naman daw sila para sa pagkain. Tutal, pagkain rin naman ang habol nila at hindi lang naman daw ako ang kakain. Nakakatuwa talaga silang tingnan. Sabi ko kasi sa kanila, wala kasi akong dapat pagkagastusan kundi murang pantawid ng gutom at pang-internet. Tawa ang maglola.

Umuwi kami kinagabihan. Nakaidlip ako saglit nang bigla akong kinalabit ni Kuya Emman. May mukha ng ka-b-day kong si Benigno Aquino sa kanyang kamao. Asus, bigla tuloy akong nagmukhang sinampal ni Cherrie Gil sa hiya. Napakalaki nang ginastos ng kanyang irog para sa akin tapos may kwarta pang kasama. Binusog na nila ang tapeworms sa aking tiyan tapos, me datung. Una’y tumanggi ako, pero sa pamimilit tinanggap ko rin. Kunin ko na raw dahil baka masulot pa kami ng mga magnanakaw sa maynila. Pambaon rin ito na hindi hihingiin kay Mommy. Pero kung nagkataon, hindi ko na sana tinanggap. Sapat na sakin na nagustuhan nila ang comedy presentation na ginawa ko.

Hindi ko alam kung bakit pero mahirap sa akin ang tumanggap ng kabayaran lalo pa’t itatanong pa sa akin kung anong kabayaran ang dapat kong matanggap. Malaking utang na loob na ang pagiging kaibigan ko sila. Dahil sa tanang buhay ko, sila lang ang mga naging tunay kong kaibigang hindi sinasahuran ng tubig tuwing naliligo sa palikuran. Sapat na sa akin ang maging tapat sila sa sarili nila na kilalanin ako bilang ako. Kaya kung may tulong na hihingiin sila, basta’t hindi ako napipilitan dahil sa kung anong Poncio Pilatong magsasabi sa king dapat kong gawin yun, iaalay ko ang aking kapangyarihan.

INTIMIDATION IS THE BEST POLICY

I look intimidating.

Even my classmates are quite intimidated to me. Each time I talk in front of them, they, uh what you call this, stare at me provocatively as if they seemed to be guarded by some tiger-looking librarian in the group. They listen very carefully, note some words which they don’t understand (when I speak English), and never bullied around by chatting with their seatmates inside our class whenever I report.

“Para ka kasing teacher, Neil”, one former classmate (and a close diva friend of ours) told me…

I said, 'Continue reading' monkeyboy ^_^

I remember when I first attended our very first class in Cavite State U, I was wearing a was-popular Lee Pipes shirt, jeans, hair cut with gel damped on while holding a Tuscany envelope filled with some Martian-language documents from planet Jupiter. I saw a pack of students fancying on the corridor chitchating about their, well, post graduation experiences. Then, I walked closer to them thinking that they are my MCOM classmates.

Everyone became silent except the birds chirping and houseflies mating.

“Sir, kayo po ba prof namin sa BIO?”, Krizelle asked.

I laughed intrapersonally.

Ever since I became the popular talk of the freshmen, people used to stare at me. People quietted by my looks and accent, though I am obliged speaking natively, each time I approach them. “Mukha kang Koreano”. Students are dumbfound when I talk to them. They say, it’s hard to speak in English. I usually have the best treatment from the faculty who are just so impressed “daw” with my ‘dating’(aura) and ‘dunong’(intelligence). It became worse when I joined the publication. It became worst when I joined univ organizations.

I can’t count how many times people judge me the way I speak and look. This first impression really diverts people’s perception about the real personality of other persons. Person of ordinary quality, or perhaps trying-to-be-ordinary personality. It cannot be blamed. All people are oriented significantly different from each other.

Due to the fact that more and more people are intimidated to me, I now dress fashionably ordinary. I speak patriotically ordinary, (though I admit the fact that I always lose my vocabulary per conversation).

One time, I forgot to wash my polo top. I had no choice but to wear my gray polo shirt in school. After reaching the Tricycle Term’e'nal, trike drivers were scrambling as if some congressman was donating another waiting shed in their area. I reached Gate two. The lady guard is keen with the student’s ID wearing. My companions entered gracefully. Then it was my turn.

“Oh, good morning po, sir”, with a big smile the lady guard greeted me with reverence.

“Good morning, too”, I retorted.

I laughed intrapersonally for the second time.

FHM Wootness


Oh… malakas lang ang trip ko.

I was browsing interconnecting blogs from one link to another and then I noticed Baylon’s.

I didn’t realize, I drafted an email about the 100 FHM Sexiest in the World a few weeks ago. Hehe. Just to make sure my pornographic juices are still working and cumming—err, I mean coming, here’s how I look at these babes on my mag and uploaded it here.

Anyways… just wondering.

FHM 100 Sexiest in the World? I mean–the whole world? I don’t believe it. Even those scumbags from the remotest shanties in our planet recognize small time whores like Jaycee Parker? It’s not.

It’s just that these are the girls only recognized by Filipinos (and Filipina-orgasmic citizens of the world) as the most juicilicious of all.

Even Jang-Geum was victimized by these crooks…

Hahaha. OMG. I can’t believe I did this. Go on, continue reading.

DARN YOU BROWNOUT!


Darn! Darn! Darn! Darn you, brownout! Darna!

Ok. I am so pissed off with today’s multiplied sudden halt of electricity in our subdivision. Arrrgh! I was typing my latest entry this morning. Well, not much of a show-off, but I am not used to drafting my articles in MS Word then copy-pasting it since my super-latest Office 2007 has problems with punctuation marks when text is transferred to a browser. I was in the middle of my story-telling then suddenly, some exaggerated female neighbor of ours shouted “Ay diyos ko… (unintelligible words here)”.

My post instantly disappeared…
I said, 'Continue reading' monkeyboy ^_^

Aargh! I hate you, Diether Ocampo!

It’s 7 pm already. No… my younger brother interrupted me and had myself waiting for hours with , it’s 2 am already. Grrrr. I scolded him. He can’t force any appeals. He has no choice but to say sorry.

If it’s not the brownout, I would have been in our apartment in Indang right now oopsy-daisying with my housemates (err… Big Brother wootness).

I hate brownouts. I even wonder how it was coined ‘brown’ though you can only see yourself and the color of your third-world pubic hair everywhere.

—————–

Basically there are 3 types of brownouts that have wasted so much precious seconds of my entire life:

1. The scheduled maintenance brownout.

This is the most unusual brownout. The most significant, yet seldom to occur in our area. Maybe our neighborhood doesn’t care if someone in our subdivision’s circuit flickers and hints of a major fire hit us. Meralco cuts our connection to the uptown in order to, well, track if there are any dimwits in our place who steals electricity, or if an outrageously stupid Maya pecks or perch on a transformer or an open wire.

I’m quite happy with these maintenance brownouts. Not only that it’ll force me to finish all my projects earlier, it also gives me more justifiable reason to go to SM Dasma or elsewhere where I would not have sauna service at home. It’s so freakin hot during daytime cut-offs!

2. The unscheduled-yet-hearsaid brownout.

Err… why do these people purportedly keep scheduled brownouts a secret? Because they want to commercialize their locally-monopolized water distribution? We are not stupid. We will not buy from them. We will intentionally bring our pails and drums in front of their house –in front of their flabbergasted ass faces–and fetch water somewhere. Pang-asar, right?

Thank God for my mother who has the highest rate of Public Relations in our subdivision, and we are not left behind from these chismaxes.

3. The shockingly surprising brownout

Aaaargh!! I hate this! I hate this! I detest God for having this kind of incident to exist in our world! It pulls liters of blood from my feet to my brain! Arrrgh! Erkh…kkhk–gulg—brrp–pfft– (*seizures*)

This ruins my whole day especially when I’m using my PC. More particular if I’m using non-emergency-saving applications like Photoshop (where I used to do my comic series images) and internet browsers (where I used to type my posts impromptu online).

I was nearly finishing my post at 7 am. Then my screen turned black. Time stopped all of a sudden. I was stunned. Wish I could throw a huge stone at Meralco for not announcing this cut-off today.

Why didn’t I include blackouts? It’s a hell lot detestable than brownouts. Anywhere in your province, city, or the whole Luzon, you cannot do anything enjoyable. You cannot savor the wonders of modern-day technological convenience. You’ll be brought back to your parent’s past decades where tambuli is your cell phone and Langit-lupa is your fave Olympic event. Talk about burping in a yawnfest. I’d rather sleep.

—————-

WAAAAAH!!! PUREFOODS WON!!!! YAHOOO!!!!
HURAAAH!!! YIPEEE!!! MAGPAPAINOM DAW SI MANNY!!!

Errr…

In fact, I’ve been unenthusiastic to PBA game watching since Sunkist found themselves harvesting kangkongs. Basketball has never been my sport. Blame it on my fractured arm.

I’m very happy that a clean-performing team like Purefoods won the conference with 90-83. Because of it, I’ve been hooked to basketball–not with playing that sport–but to read and view everything about PBA. Not NBA… PBA.

I’m so proud to have a Filipino pack of smashing cagers to be inspired with.

DIETHER OCAMPO IS GONE

So much for my sensationalism, eh?

——-

I live in Dasma.

(???)

Dasmarinas, Cavite, assholes.

To go to Indang using your proletarian prowess, you need to ride a bus or a jeep going to, of course, Indang. Along the way you’ll be passing through Langkaan (has a lot of jackfruits), FCIE (has a lot of woots), Manggahan (has a lot of mangoes–duh?), Conchu (has a lot of–uh… Chinese?), and so on and so forth blah-blah-blah whatever. The rest of the towns are insignificant…

header11.jpg

In Manggahan, there’s this building built circa 2002 with a tarpauline (is this correctly spelled?) of Agua Vida with a seemingly-wholesome-short-haired-offspring-free Diether Ocampo holding a phallus–joke–mineral bottle.

After gazing through the window of the jeepney 45 minutes ago, I saw a boxer delishly gourmandizing a chicken drumstick in his grip in front of that establishment.

Diether Ocampo is gone.

—————

STAPLES

Oh great. Haven’t you noticed? Each time you place a new cartridge of staples in your stapler, you need to staple one staple on its stable to close the stapler? Sheesh… wasting a staple.

Never been successful.

I WOULD RUN AWAY

It’s hard to convince everyone in my circle how stubborn I am when it comes to accepting responsibility offers. It is, however, very difficult to simply say that ‘n’ word Kuya Butterfly has been telling me to respond whenever these people approach me and convince me with their conscience-digging elaborations of how important my role is to ‘the people’.

Nowadays, I’m being dumbfounded when ‘these’ people are conversing with me. Why? I don’t know how to tactfully respond with ‘I cannot do’ because of my presumptions–thinking that when I say ‘no’, they will bombard me with consecutive lines like Why? How come? What’s your valid reason? Do you think ‘they’ will be happy? What about ‘them’?

Them–counted in millions of letters.

They used to, or usually say, Neil, you have the greatest capacities of being a student leader. You can lead them. With your (enumerate my greatest talents from one to one hundred), you can easily (cannot be disclosed).

A person could be instantly qualified through his greatest considerable experiences and accomplishments from the past and, too, exaltations from his/her closest peers. Or possible, exaltations like his greatest considerable experiences and accomplishments of his past from his/her closest peers. Because of it, there can be more possibilities that job opportunities will pile up in front of you without your awareness and approval.

Yet, these opportunities sometimes are disregarding the person being suffocated by them, moreso if people are very confident that the person they trusted is competitive–so-called competitive

I’m just a human… I’m no multi-tasking operating system of yours.

They might have been used to Neil very busy with academics, Neil very busy to the publication, Neil very busy to ‘extra-curricular’ education, Neil very busy to ‘intercampus’ involvement…

Not anymore.

These obligations and opportunities slash responsibilities seemed to flow in my nasal cavities just like any other ordinary fresh air in Indang, Cavite, but minute-by-minute, when I depreciate, carbon dioxide fills-up my lungs, ready to be yawned.

What happens next?

On my bed, snoring with my mind kept somewhere else…

I’m being swallowed by my presumptions in arguments being served over the table of my life. I don’t know how to walk around normally without questioning myself where the hell I should indulge myself to…

I’ve lost directions.

I’ve lost my opportunities to greater education…

But it’s not appropriate to blame it all to them…

It’s all my fault of hitching on the jeepney they’re riding without inquiring the driver whether he’ll avail my student discount or not…

I’m so confused…
