Of an early Christmas shoorvaness wu.

Christmas is coming. Here are some suggestions you might want to give to your enemy or something you don’t like or if you’re too lazy to buy anything in an exchange gift situation:

500-peso worth of gasgas Christmas gifts such as picture frames, candles, and handkerchief.

500-peso worth of toys you can buy in the palengke.

500-peso worth of basahan.

500-peso worth of melamine-based food if you really hate the person.

500-peso worth of chocolates and sweets if he/she has diabetes.

500-peso worth of Smart load if he/she uses Globe or Sun.

500-peso worth of fresh meat from the market, liver and some innards are preferred.

500-peso discount certificate in those unholy places that we all know but we can’t nameit for the single female officemate who is in her early twenties.

500-peso worth of Didache books for the evil person.

500-peso worth of ice.

500-peso worth of Fissan for the person who has really smelly feet.

500-peso worth of sex toys for the religious.

500-peso worth of Halloween stuff.

500-peso worth of the most baduy audio CD’s you can think of.

500-peso worth of dried fish (the ones that really smell, you can add bagoong too, the one’s bought in the market of course.)

500-peso worth of those square batteries.

500-peso worth of confetti.

500-peso worth of floppy diskettes.

500-peso worth of tawas.

500-peso worth of pampalaglag ng bata courtesy of Quiapo.

So, basically the list can be really long if you’re creative. I’m sure you’d probably give an explosive to your enemy… or not.

Nah. It’s only October…

--=+=--

Some personal blah-blahs… blech.

Ack. People are really resigning in the office. Some of them didn’t even want to wait for December.

There’s one big dilemma for us actually here in the office. A big client might pull out and where would this place us come the end of the year. If you’re the employee, you’ll surely want security and assurance and it seems the company doesn’t even provide any good information for all of us (and also the fact that the company is cheapee cheap cheap.)

So, why aren’t you leaving… yet? Well, I won’t divulge any future goals in here. Let’s look at the part on why I am still here.

There are two factors actually. The convenience of the place, it’s in Ortigas only and I’m living in Cainta and the second one is I can go to work whenever I want to, theoretically (as I can’t really do this every day. But going to work at two in the afternoon having a regular shift then it’s cool with me.)

As much as I want to work in Makati, I’m still thinking about it. I was able to survive college and probably it’ll work in Makati or the Fort even.

It would be really sweet if I worked back in Libis though.

And it all boils down to one thing… moolah. We can always say that we work because we want to enhance or improve our career. But we know we want money too. Who doesn’t?

Nah.

Of my mythological creature.

The Greeks have a high sense of imagination. Imagine the mythology that they shared to all of our civilization and generation. And this subject is really outstanding if you’ll think about it (I should compare this with the bible but I’m not in the mood to do that. So there, I’m Catholic. Dang, I sound like a Westener already. All right, forget what I wrote. Well, forget the words enclosed in parentheses.)

Actually, I love the mythological creatures only. They really fascinate me. I’m not really scared with these creatures since they came in friendly in some of the computer games. Unlike the creature in the big urn (halimaw sa banga), the Undin, or the Janice’s baby (tiyanak) which I really had some scare time when I was young. Uhm… not the undin, it wasn’t really scary, Ai Ai is.

Wiki-ing the Chimaera, it says there that they are the offspring of the Typhon (is it bgyo my dear? No) and Echidna (I’m really assuming this is not part of the family of rodents) and siblings of the Cerberus (remember Php Fluffy) and the Lernaean Hydra (it’s the Lochness monster with many necks and heads). Come to think of it, these siblings conquer the atmosphere; it will be hard to do a triple tag on them since they are in the air, the land, and the sea.

So, here’s my question, how do they copulate? It seems that these siblings are basically a freak of nature. Probably the parents are scientists in nature and they were able to create these creatures. They could’ve copulated lotsa giraffes and a duck-billed platypus (having the hydra), multi-copulation for three black Labradors (having the Cerberus), and a freaky-copulation of a lion, a snake, a goat, and a dragon (for the Chimaera). So, Greek myth creature porn anyone?

Now, the Minotaur has no parents, it was made for King Minos of Crete. They are part man and part bull. This one is really SSU (sakit sa ulo). Think about it. How were Minotaurs really made? It is probably Typhon who went to see a red bull and they went kinky…

In case the Chimaera ends up with a Minotaur, what would they’re children look like? IMPOV (In my point of view), I see it as the four-legged creatures as the female and the Minotaur. It is actually clear on how they’ll copulate and I won’t give any description in here.

I swear, if I had the abilities to draw or even animate things like these, I’ll surely add it in this post.

Actually, I’m just sad that the Minotaur has no parents. At least if it ends up with the Chimaera then probably, just probably, it’ll be part of a family. It is really incestuous if the Typhon storyline with the mistress is true. It’s like they are living like a royalty ala old school European King and Queens.

(sana yung Cerberus and yung si Minotaur na lang ang nagkatuluyan.)

I was originally going to post two weeks worth of “scary stuff”. Blame work on this one and laziness.

--=+=--

I never knew that Sarah Silverman would be booed off stage.

Is it karma? If you’ve seen her skits and shows, you’d probably agree. Her act is not clean.

Woot. U.S. Elections… Don’t care.

Of an A-z of Undas movies.

Here are some suggestions to the upcoming undas as we are all fond of scary movies during the all “S” holidays. I just want to be clear though, for me, a scary movie doesn’t really mean that it should contain your usual ghoul, ghosts, and trying hard actors and actresses. It means that it can be scary in a sense of what ifs, phobias, and the usual what’s wrong with my imaginary mind and chieneses.

So, here’s my A-Z movie suggestion list. Again, I found no matches for the letters Q, X, and Y. And a few of the movies in the list are pilit since I really have no choice due to the limited number of movies falling under that alphabet or letter. (All movies mentioned have been watched by moi.)

And expect funny movies too. Funny and scary, just like the formula of almost all our scary movies. And another one, all consists of foreign movies.

A Nightmare on Elm Street: Freddie Krueger anyone? The first installment in a series is awesome. And the 80’s are cool too.

Black Sheep: A sort of black comedy (pardon the pun) wherein evil sheep attack people. I tell you, this is uber-ly sheepy fun fun fun.

Cube: A sort of sci-fi thriller, a group of people are trapped in a big cube, think Rubik’s cube in life. Now, think of the movie Saw where each room is a surprise.

Delicatessen: This one is slightly weird and foreign. Think of the time when we humans run out of food. What will we do?

The Evil Dead: Relive Ash’s of Army Of Darkness in this uber-old school movie by Sam Raimi. Raimi who? It’s Raimi who created Spidey.

1408: Who can’t resist a Stephen King movie? Don’t forget to look for the different endings for this movie. I prefer the theatrical version though.

Grindhouse: It’s Quentin Tarantino and Roberto Rodriguez in a two-movie in one movie… err a double-feature 70’s style film.

Hostel: Because we need to include your usual heavy gore slasher flick once in a while. And the protagonists are stupid.

I Know What You Did Last Summer: I’ve added this one because of Jennifer Love Hewitt… and that’s it.

Jeepers Creepers: Jeepers Creepers 2 sucked and you have to watch the first one. It is not sucky.

Kiss The Girls: An action thriller. No scary plot here. It’s Morgan Freeman. Yehey. I really don’t know if we can classify this one under scary.

Lady In The Water: It’s an M. Night and I like this film. Some may say that this suck. A geek like me won’t turn away from fantasy.

Machine Girl: Japanese rules! I’ve posted an entry solely for the Machine Girl and I just love the badness of the film. It’s my cult classic film.

North By Northwest: Check this out. This is an Alfred Hitchcock film that has been copied numerous times by today’s movies.

The Orphanage: It is a Guillermo Del Toro (or De Toro?) freaky film. This one gave me shivers.

Poltergeist: Again, 80’s rule! Don’t you just love the freaky little girl? I do! I wub here so much I’m gonna marry her… uhm… nevermind.

Running Man: Think about this one. The future where killing is a game and the scariest part is we have Arnold S. as the main actor.

Secret Window: A wonderful Johnny Depp film. The story is kind of mabagal and I think this is another Stephen King film you’ll enjoy.

Teeth: This movie-that-looks-an-indie film is really scary in nature. Imagine if a guy dates a girl with… the magical teeth. Sweet.

Urban Legend: I wub this one because Pacey is in this movie. This version of Urban Legend is subtler than the second one. So, it’s actually up to you what you want to watch.

The Village: Y.M.C.A. anyone? (oh yeah, joke) A wonderful M. Night film. I know you’ve seen it. Watch it again.

The Wicker Man: Weird is nice. This movie is nice. If you want a “bolder” version of the film, choose the 70’s version.

Zoo: An Asian film. A traditional Asian scary movie film, you might want to use this as filler in case you run out of movies to watch.

--=+=--

Wiki and imdb are always there to serve you in case you want to look for synopses or reviews for the films mentioned above. I got lazy writing summaries for the movies and I had to write positive things. It is not so me.

Of continued drama.

Another one of those high school entries…

Intro song: High School Life by Sharon Cuneta.

Nah.

I was trying to do some mixing with decades and told myself that it might be nice if some things today can possibly be used in the 90’s. I thought of, what if we have those plurk or twitter things in the 90’s? My day would probably go like this.

5:30AM: “Inaantok pa ko.”

7:00AM: “May assignment si Allen sa History, maka-kopya na!”

7:01AM: “Nagugutom ako. May extra six pesos ako ditto. Sakto! Cheese burger na walang hamburger!”

7:20AM: “Kabisado ko na ang Bayang Magiliw no. Paulit-ulit na lang.”

8:15AM: “Mag RX na ko. Masaya yung Chico and Delamar na yun a. Goodbye DWKC.”

9:25AM: “Ano ba namang klaseng assignment to. Wala namang librong ganito sa library.”

9:26AM: “Sino ba yang Karl Marx na yan? Sana may mapupuntahan na lugar kung saan ready na ang mga research na yan. Kahit summarized man lang sana.”

11:00AM: “Woo. Autocad. Sana lunch na!”

11:55AM: “Ang mahal ng sisig! Forty pesos! Pero sige, yan na!”

1:30PM: “Ang ganda talaga ng Wordstar. Hindi masyadong nakakapagod. Hindi tulad ng typewriter.”

1:35PM: “Ano nga ulit yung control C?”

2:45PM: “Intrams? E puro porma lang yung basketball team namin e.”

4:00PM: “Thursday pala ngayon. Uwi na ko. Gusto kong mag Q-zar.”

6:00PM: “Nasa bahay na ko. Walang mapanood na magandang palabas.”

6:01PM: “Ok yung sinasabi ni Marco na MTV.”

9:00PM: “Nakakatawa talaga ang Palibhasa Lalaki.”

9:30PM: “Matulog na daw ako. May Mr. Bean pa sa channel 4 e.”

Dang, I’m still not in the mood to write about anything.

And the timeline above doesn’t really coincide with each other as each post is not really accurate and dependent with each other.

--=+=--

I’m wasting bandwidth due to my promise to myself. I promised I’m going to post some crap every day for 365 days (or 366).

There’s still tomorrow. Something might come up.

Note: Something came up early today! Wee. What about it? Is it the usual crap? Oh yeah.

Of a series of drama posts...

How much threshold of pain can a person contain? (tama ba? Contain? Hahaha. Pag nilagay mo ba yan sa isang lalagyanan, container na yun?)

I’m not entering the usual emo episode but I just feel so numb right now. It feels that everything else is so blah right now. I’m trying to tell myself that something must be really happening. I’m trying to look for that small thing that will make me giddy-giddy.

I know this is kinda mababaw actually. I mean, with all the Earth’s problems right now I should be thinking about something else like how I can help the earth today or how can I contribute some positive crap.

I try to read the newspaper everyday and look at the pages. It feels blank. I know the Wall Paper errr Wall Street incident is important. I know that the upcoming U.S. elections are important. I know the melamine scare is important. But that’s it. It is really blank.

(I swear ngayon lang to. Maybe some brisk walk will probably remove the kadramahan.)

But I’m really not depressed… really. It feels blank.

--=+=--

On a lighter note, and I’m sure I shouldn’t have missed this one, I just found out that there’s a Pinoy Marvel superhero group.

Yup, the group’s name is the Triumph team (it is Triumph right? It feels like they’re selling women’s underwear or something.)

We looked crazy in those panels. It was in a bad stereotype actually. The closest thing for being a Filipino is one of the superheroes’ names. It was Antun. And it was actually sucky at the same time. Antun doesn’t really sound so superhero-ish at all.

Check them out at the Invincible Iron Man number 2 and I think number 4 too.

And I don’t really want to be spoiler-y here but the epilogue for that part is really crazy.

--=+=--

Oh, and on an uber-lightness note, Step Brothers is hilarious. Reilly and Ferrell are still using their formula, the one wherein they converse about some funny crap.

Other notable movies I’ve seen this month are Dogma, The Orphanage, Dark City, D.A.R.Y.L., Tales of Terror from Tokyo and All Over Japan, Thx 1138, Scarface, Masters of the Universe, The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Teen Wolf, Private School, and Nightmares and Dreamscapes.

Yeah, the 80’s rock.

--=+=--

Just. Maybe. Everyone’s. So. Busy.
