Scorchness on a Lazy Saturday

Posted by Maia - Filed under , , , ,
IT'S HOT.
I hate the heat.
This weather is making me go GAH!!!
I can't even write.

It's been scorching, mind-numbing and crazy hot lately. Seriously, I have tried everything to cool down. I am currently eating sago't gulaman, fan on me, and will be taking the longest shower since Ondoy. It's that hot. To put it in perspective and to give a name to this heat - My Luci calls it SCORCHNESS.

Scorchness is the term for the recent extreme heat. It dries up even braincells in my head and it prevents me from creating blog entries, stories or even working. It's El Niño. It's a dryspell. It's the burning Halo-halo/ ice cream wanting heat we all experience now. That's scorchness.

On another hand, SCORCHNESS can mean an extremely attractive person. Hotter than HOT. More fabulous than fab. For example, ME! *dodges arrows and knives*. Just kidding, pero hindi.

LAZY SATURDAY

It's Saturday one of the rare ones I stayed at home for. I slept in, played with the baby. Watched Tinkerbell the movie and Little Einstein, talked to Luci, started a blue monster, finished Gir, wrapped Gir, Played the guitar, talked to da, and now writing a blog.

I enjoy Saturdays like these. It helps me rest. Recovery from the hell week I have been through. The week was in a word - HORRENDOUS. But today, since I have rested. My brain cells have all gone to the spa and are all SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICISPIALIDOCIOUS!

I feel good. I am psyched for tonight's reunion. I. CAN'T. WAIT.

Seminars, Skype, Sleepies and Safari

Posted by Maia - Filed under , , , ,
TGIF. Thank GOD it's Friday. No more seminars, no more boring speakers and long talks, no more falling asleep on my chair. It's been two straight days of that since Wednesday. Both necessary evils for both of my careers ( both as a HR/Admin and as Real Estate Broker) and in both seminars, I became a beautiful dreaming narcoleptic.

Seminars like those are important -- very important at least to people like me who need updates every now and then. I know its a learning thing but speakers were not very engaging ( except the one from stateland. She was some kind of wonderful-- with a wonderful outfit! BUT! I was a damn narco that day lack of sleep) I hated most of all Pag-ibig funds ms. farm. UGH. Can you say sleeping pill in a package? UGH.

I was saved from ultra boredom and from being alone in yesterdays seminar by a good friend from the mother company. Such an angel -- and not to mention eye candy too. Well, he was kind enough to help me find a good seat and talk to me in the off times. It was good to get to know a new friend. Especially since we both work the same job. UGH. I am glad I am not alone to feel the Admin Hell I have eveyr 25-30 of month. :D

I AM NOT ALONE! YAY!

That night, I bonded with a couple friends over Skype. AMAZING TECHNOLOGY. I was talking to both a person from Singapore and from Las Pinas using my computer and the wonders of Voice over IP. We chatted about everything, caught up with each others lives ranted and totally was silly. It was a good feeling.

:D However, by the end of the evening, I was wasted.

I called a good friend and found that he was the same too. We were planning a weekend thing when he fell asleep on me. :) Poor person. He must be really tired. -- i couldnt blame him he wakes up at 4:30 to catch a shuttle that would take him from Alabang to Ortigas everyday and goes home at nonsensical hours of the night. I swear, I would call for help its a human rights violation! But aside from that, i think he's good. I worry... I really do...

maybe because... but who knows!?

wah.. i have a safari BPI buena mano thing tonight. I hope to enjoy. :D AHHHH EVEN IF I AM HILARIOUSLY TIRED...

Random Thoughts of a Narcoleptic

Posted by Maia - Filed under , , , , , , ,
I was out of the office today. Luckily. I was half asleep the whole day. Narcoleptic because I didnt get sleep. Things were a bit off lately... people keep telling me what to do and not to do and last night I just snapped. Sometimes it's better to just say it out loud than keep it in.

I learned to reel in myself last night and also open up enough to keep my dignity. I learned to defend my pride. God, was I proud of myself? yes. Because now, I know I could keep my emotions in check. I didn't cry as much. Logical thinking - yes.

I'm listening to a song right now that was suggested on a friend's playlist. ( he's got amazing taste in music -- i swear playlist raid!) I love the song. I love the lyrics. will learn on guitar.

Don't Say Goodbye, Say Goodnight
Binocular

i lie awake and feel your nearness i never wanted more than this
i don't wanna run beneath your tears
i don't wanna catch them when they're falling
But its the same old song playin over and over
now i lie upon my face and though we tried
i guess that's the way it's supposed to be
don't say goodbye say goodnight so it's not over
and if you try and answer why it's just over it's goodbye
i hope to see the dawn of daybreak and the sun rise to cloudless skies
and now i've tried to see the truth but i close my eyes
and you were there for me and i was there for you
don't say goodbye say goodnight so it's not over
and if you try and answer why it's just over it's goodbye
but now i lie upon my face and though we tried
i guess that's the way it's supposed to be
don't say goodbye say goodnight so it's not over
and if you try and answer why it's just over it's goodbye
it's goodbye

Thanks Luci

Anyway, there is forgiveness, but I cannot forget... there is trust to be rebuilt.

Still hoping for something to start...hmmm
