bukod sa misa na aking pinagusapan sa naunang blog ko ngayong araw, tahimik at maayos ang araw na ito. hindi ito tulad ng ibang mga Linggo ko na kung saan kahit anong gawin ko pagod ako.

Ni hindi ako natulog sa kalagitnaan ng araw dahil hindi ko naramdaman ang antok. Gising na gising ako.

Nilinis ko pa ang kwarto ko (hindi naman yung talagang puspusan na linis...di kukulangin ng 3 araw yon pag puspusan, kahit maliit tong kwarto ko) at tumakbo sa village ko...at lahat yon sa hapon ko ginawa. Siguro dapat gawin ko yon kada linggo na...maganda yung pakiramdam eh.

At kahit pagod ang katawan ko, parang hindi ko nararamdaman ng lubusan yung pagod dahil maganda ang kalooban ko ngayong araw (di ko alam kung bakit...)

Dulot ba to ng bagong trabaho bukas, ng walang klase, o pareho? Basta, malay ko ba. ang importante, maganda ang pakiramdam :D Bahala na kung bakit :))

kagagaling ko lang sa misa, na kung saan ang gospel ay tungkol sa isang biyuda na inalay ang lahat ng kanyang pera kumpara sa mga mayayaman na nagbibigay ng bahagi ng kanilang kayamanan (sana alam niyo kung ano pinaguusapan ko...). Sa bihirang pagkakataon na nakakapagmisa ako (dahil nga nung huling semestre may mga klase ako sa linggo), si Msg. Olaguer na punong pari ng Bilibid ay nagtalumpati tungkol sa generosity at sa pagbibigay. Nang patapos na ang misa, sinabi niya...parang ganito:

Msg O: May isa rito sa Greenheights (village ko) na nagsisilbi nga sa prison service. Teacher po siya, at nagtuturo siya sa isa sa Medium, sa isa sa mga eskwelahan namin. Nandito po ba siya, si Jerry Rimando?

Medyo naramdaman ko na rin na tatawagin ako...sino lang ba ang nagtuturo sa village namin sa mga inmates sa Medium? Kung meron pa bukod sa akin, matagal ko na sanang alam. Kaya ang reaksyon ko, isang mahiyaing taas ng kamay, at pilit na tayo.

Alam ko na nasa mabuting konteksto ang ginawa ni Msg. at naiintindihan ko yon. Pero kailangan kong klaruhin kung bakit kahit kailan hindi ko hiningi o pinangarap ang parangal at papuri sa mga ginagawa ko.

( Mga walang-kabuluhang rason... )

Ayan. Kaya kung maaari, alalahanin niyo na hindi ko hinangad ang papuri at parangal sa aking ginagawa. Kaya hindi ko rin ito pinaguusapan sa mga tao ng matagal (bukod sa blog na ito), kasi ano pa ba ang paguusapan ko tungkol sa pagtuturo ko?

Haay, ibig sabihin kalahati ng village ko kahit papaano narinig na ang pangalan ko. Haay.

abeyance: suspension; temporary cessation.

Today I waited in line for four hours listening to Sweet Disposition and nibbling on Mr. Chips to pay for Jillmer's tuition. Poor man still hasn't recovered yet and is so bummed out at home, learning to play random songs with his guitar. Sometimes I do envy him except when I realize he's got a huge hole somewhere beneath his gymmer abs haha. Peter also went berserk while trapped in lines today but what the hell he's taking his masters. It's like some sort of hobby for the genius so fuck him. My four hours with stinky sweethearts doing PDA pwns his graduate student bullshit.

Anyway, there's too much happening at work lately since it's Originals season and everything's so hyped up, yet everyone's sucking at making it sharp on deadlines. There's also this thing I'd call shorts exhibition where I'm basically the main whore in charge, which sucks. It's been so stressful in the last couple of days man, juggling both Jillmer's reg problems and responding to a lot of major short notices at work. But at least I'm still alive and my torrents still wait for me when I get home. Ah, life.

Ok, I've never heard of Agatha and I haven't seen the store—but Grace, let's go!
Some of the stuff is literally charming.
I am a sucker for these.

Some of the stuff are very Looklet or very girly


To celebrate its 35th anniversary, French fashion jewelry label Agatha created limited edition extra-large charms created to recount the story of Agatha throughout the years.
Agatha also chose 12 models to represent individuality, imagination, diversity and choice.
Again, how very Looklet!




Let's go nah!

Too bad, sold out na ang Twitter tights!
Was gonna get you for Christmas.

Superga is an Italian shoe brand founded in 1913.
It originally made tennis shoes, including the famous model "2750 Classic" but then diversified into a wide range of colors, fabrics, and prints each season for women, men, and kids.
Take a look at Superga's offerings from Disney.
With all the new characters coming out—from Ben 10 to Pokemon—I'm surprised that my boys would still be interested in Disney. I actually bought a Mickey Mouse plush toy for my son yesterday.

felicitous: apt or appropriate; also, delightful.

Ok, I've gotten rid of the yellow tone of the Samsung camera and here's a small photo diary of today and yesterday's activities. All shots taken sans flash.



First, dinner at Mannang with Mich and Markus.
Best squid head ever!



Lovely chilled mangoes


Dexterton lights on my wish list. (There's a newly opened Dexterton on top of Pepper Lunch GB5.)


These look like scotch glasses


Checking out the Greenbelt 5 construction


We are running ahead of schedule

maunder: to talk or wander aimlessly.

While driving through the rain at state marching band, we passed a stop sign that said "STOP VOLDEMORT."

My smart ass friends were saying, the robbers are so dumb, why did they rob Rolex when Patek Philippe is just next door?
I said, anobah. Hindi alam ng robbers ang Patek. Rolex is like the Nokia of the Philppines. Everyone knows the brand and aspires for one lah.
It turns out, the robbers meant to rob Philik Patik, not Rolex.
What's sad is one robber was paid a measly Php 15,000 to do the job.
