Who Hoe Ho
ohmygoodness! I almost slept the entire Christmas day away. As in naitulog ko na yata yung quota ko for two days. lolz. So this means I'll be having a hard time getting some sleep later. Which kinda sucks seeing that it's back to work tomorrow. Owel. Nuff with the suckage. It's Christmas, after all. Even if the so-called Christmas Spirit hasn't moved me this season at all. Yep, no kidding.

Why-O-Why
I'm now hearing a revival of Agot Isidro's
Everyday over the radio. I loved Agot's version. It was hauntingly sad. And now the newest version of some OPM reject slash "cashing in on someone else's hit song" wannabe just plain sucks. At ginawa pang duet, mind you! *shudders*

Somebody Else's Retard Moment
Da When: Yesterday afternoon
Da Where: Astrovision Glorietta.
Da Who: Some Clueless Woman behind me whom I did not dare look at
Da Convo:
CW, to her companion: Ito na yata yung pinapahanap saten.
CW's companion: Ay oo nga. Baka ito na. Itanong naten.
CW, to the saleslady beside me: Meees, ang
Y Tu Mama Tambien ba eh Chinese?
I choked back my reaction and went DVD browsing as if I heard nothing.
And I don't even own a DVD player.
* PS: I don't even find it funny right now. But it was thigh slapping funnee back then. It turned out they were looking for
So Close. Which is not even Chinese.
* PPS: Ok, so maybe it was an honest to goodness ignorance on the Clueless Woman's part. But hey, by looking at the vcd cover, wouldn't you notice the difference between Asian actors and clearly Mexican looking ones? Well, obviously.. erm.. not.
Meanie!Meowl butts in: Laitera! Laitera!
Dehm! Looks like what was supposedly Somebody Else's Retard Moment just became my very own.

Big Yellow Taxi Cab
We get to meet a lot of people everyday. Some you file under the "must remember your name coz i might have to interact with you in the future" category. While most of 'em just pass through your consciousness before going straight to the recycle bin.
And then there's always that awkwardness that comes with meeting a person or a group of people for the very first time. The not knowing if they're actually nice or gonna hate your guts afterwards. More so when you feel compelled to keep a "small talk" kinda thing going. Which I marvelously suck at, btw. But there are those times when that perfunctory show of niceties seamlessly segues into an odd sense of familiarity. I like to call it a "clique-y" moment.
In short, FC agad. And I say that with fondness.
Nhuks, "fondness." Most certainly NOT in the derisive fashion that is the usual FC connotation.
Back to the "clique-y" moment comment. That's what I would like to believe what happened when I met
Zein's friendly friends last Friday.
Gawd, was it just Friday when I had a mad case of Santa Baby LSS?! Can't believe we spent that much time eating (and not eating) the humongous pizza servings. Yeah, time sure flies when you're laughing your asses off. Ain't that right. And the thing is, I kinda braced myself to be OP'd. But even during those times when I had no friggin' idea what they were talking and laughing about, I never felt like I was the odd one out. Which is so much more than I could say for some so-called friendly friends I used to have. Now how cool is that? Absolewt friggin' coolness, I daresay.
Not many people find out early on just how skitzowicky or Baafling I can be. Di ba Zein? Di ba Zein? Di ba Zeinab? Bwahahaha. I have to be comfortable with you first before I feel "safe" enough to let Evil!Meowl shine through. So am I cut out to be a Meanie? Here's my one peso on that:
I'm a
...meanie when you've given me enough reason to be one.
...meanie when you've provoked me to the breaking point.
...meanie when ya-betcha-meanie-ass I friggin' need to be.
Normally, I'm just a regular mini. Lolz.
Meanie!Meowl doesn't roar that much, but when she does, pray to your long gone ancestors that you won't be around to hear it. And yes, she bites, too.
So this has been
The Recruit, officially signing on for "duty."
Here's to the next lafftrip session. ^_^
