Update Ulit

Martyr-martyran

Haloo! Hehe.

Our shift assignments for March were already announced. Mine's below.

Start: 9:30PM
End: 6:30AM
Rest: Tues-Wed


The employer deliberately set it that even
when my shift adjusts one hour earlier (8:30PM) for the daylight saving time (whatever that is); I'm still 30 minutes shy from receiving hazard pay. Grrr.

And originally, my rest days were supposed to be on Sat-Sun; however, I swapped schedules with a workmate.

She is a 29-year-old mother of two and has held jobs as an architect and a band vocalist. She's beautiful and intelligent, too (la lang, had to include that). Thing is her husband will force her to resign if her rest days fall on weekdays that's why I readily swapped with her. That means sacrificing weekend eat-outs/lakwatsa on my part. B
ut I guess it's okay, she has been my work companion recently and I wouldn't want her to go.

Archuchuchu


David Archuleta, you had me at "Hello" "Heaven". You rock my world and you don't know it! Waah!

Notice he has this quirk of licking and licking and licking his lips. We'd just wish we were those plump, soft, and red lips. He'd set our underwear drawers on fire. Pati mga brief at panty nagliliyaban sa sampayan. He'd even pass for a Zac Efron look-alike. (Hehe, that's pushing it.)

But you have to admit David's more than just a cutie pie, he's got talent.

√ Vocal Quality
√ Vocal Range
√ Vocal Control


Emphasis on the control: melismatic, can pull off a riff without breaking a vocal chord sweat. That poses an internal conflict on my part though because if I had that voice, singing black songs would be as smooth as writing in cursive. And I wouldn't need to lower octaves! But I guess I'd let admiration overwhelm envy.

Obviously, David Archuleta is disturbing the peace. My peace of mind.

This Will Be the Day That I Die

If I cared for this year's Buhlemtime's, I wouldn't be abl
e to celebrate it fully. It's my rest day today but I'm required to report for work to attend training. At least, it's RD OT. I can't wait for tomorrow's payday!

This morning the office pantry bathed in red casa light. The four-piece strings orchestra band playing the corniest of love songs made the free pasta taste even yucchier. But it's the thought that counts, right? Wrong.

I was to go home and seconds after the elevator doors open
ed my jaw dropped. I was facing Lady A wearing the same dumbfounded expression I had.

A: O, anong ginagawa mo dito?
I: Sa pantry ako [nagtatrabaho], bakit? (I said that jokingly, of course) E ikaw?
A: Hindi kita kilala ha.

I: Di rin kita kilala.


CE people, she's the Queen of the Nile.
Or Jollibee, whichever you prefer.

Forty feet away I spotted a long-time crush inside Pancake House in our office building. First glance and immediately I recognized it was Rich Herrera. He modeled for Century tuna and Gold's Gym. His is the face plastered on Close-Up tubes as well. It's Valentine's and I wish he'd rape date me.

Have you heard that Marc Jacobs named (or will name?) one of his bags BB after Bryanboy? They are friends now, sort of. Amazing, noh? That lucky bitch.

Goodbye to Love

Gawd, my life's so humdrum these days. I’m having a hard time coming up with silly anecdotes/narratives for this blog. It’s like waking up at 4PM, the heat of the afternoon sun taunts you, but you’re too hungry and dazed to even get annoyed. Nonetheless, you proceed wracking your brain to write something you
know only you would care about, still hoping it would amuse your readers as well. So, here it goes.

Last time I mentioned that starting this month I’ll
be getting an additional 2,000-peso “hazard pay” because of my night shift. I take that back, I will not be getting that 2,000-pesos-less-tax pay anymore because. For me to be eligible, my shift should start or end within the 12AM-5AM time window. But my shift’s at 8:45PM to 5:45AM. Oh well, I just have to content with the night differential premium and wish “hazard” to anyone qualified for the extra 2,000 pesos.

What else, um, there has been an organizational reshuffling in our account that’s why my team is getting assigned to a new team leader (TL). This sucks because my present TL is TL material (as in true love material, hehe). He’s one of the two passable crushables on our production floor. He’s 25, Tsinoy, a La Sallista, and a basketball jock. The
second one is 23, tisoy, taga-UP, and a dragonboat rower (possibly gay, too). I could only stare at him as much from afar, I dare not sit near his station lest my ugliness be magnified by his auric presence. (May ganyon?) And now they’re taking my TL away from me. Huhu.
