Yo, Father! Forgive me for i have sinned... & other stories

>> Monday, March 12, 2007

Last Sunday afternoon, I made a a list of the "bad things" I've done and the "good things" I should've done but didn't. Then, I went to Greenbelt chapel and had confession.

Habang nakapila ako, may nagtanong na mama: "Are you lining-up to hear confession?"
Hindi ako nakasagot agad, para kasing mali yun tanong. Di ba yun priest ang naghi-hear ng confession? Nakakatakot ata kung ako. hehe Anyway, sumagot na lng ako ng oo kasi tingin ko gusto lang nya malaman kung nakapila ba ako. At nagkaintindihan naman kami.

Dala-dala ko yun list ko sa loob at syempre ginamit ko sya. Ayoko kasing may makalimutan. Besides, medyo mahaba talaga kaya mas ok na yun (oo, makasalanan ako. hindi lang halata. hehehe). Grade 3 ako nun una kong confession at pinagawa din kami ng list nun.

After ko i-enumerate lahat, sabi nya pray the Act of Contrition. Tapos hindi sya nagsasalita. After a few seconds sabi nya, "Do you know how to pray? Are you praying right now?" Sabi ko yes. Hindi ko naman alam na kelangan pala malakas yun prayer. hehehe

Tapos nun, nag-mass na din ako. Nakakatuwa yun pari. The homily was about patience. At may kahabaan kaya mate-test talaga ang patience mo. haha

Sa end ng mass, pinapunta lahat ng may bday or anniversary sa month ng March para sa special prayer and blessing. Hindi ako pumunta. Medyo nahiya ako kasi nakaupo ako malapit dun sa dati kong housemate at sa asawa nya. Eh nakita nila ko nun start ng mass. Wala lang.

Yun title pala ng post galing sa song ng E-heads na Butterscotch. I like that song. :)

-------------------------

Last Friday, tinext ako ng friend ko. Na-check na nya yun grades from last sem. Matatapos na yun school year pero nun ko lang nalaman. Buti na lng ok kasi kung sakaling kelangan ko pala mag-removal or kung kelangan ng extra requirements lagot ako. Sobrang late na! Ang pangit sa transcript nun.

-------------------------

LSS ko ngaun yun Gravity ng U-Turn (not sure kung sila yun original): "But what's the matter with gravity? Why won't it make you fall for me."

Yey! for the Php1 flights by Cebu Pacific. I’ll be able to go to SG on October and in Davao on Nov.

Yey! Also for my boss who has approved my VL’s on those dates.

--------------------------------------

I was booking the flights last Saturday night when Migs logged in to YM. We were able to use the “call” function of YM after I was done with the reservation.

It was my first time to use it, so I found it cool. There was one problem though, the mic connected to my headset was not working! Here are some excerpts from our conversation/chat (not sure what to call it):

ava: pano ba mag-call?
ava: hehe.. ndi ako marunong
miguel: may headset ba diyan?
ava: meron
miguel: kewl
miguel: hello
miguel: naririnig mo ako
ava: nadidinig kita
ava: e ako?
miguel: di kita naririnig
ava: teka, may kelangan daw ayusin
miguel: okidoks


after a few minutes..

ava: ayaw pa dn?
ava: pano ko malalaman?
ava: hehe
ava: nakakatawa naman to
ava: teka, tanong ko sa kanila
ava: teka.. ulit
miguel: ok

still unsuccessful..

ava: ano gawin ko?
ava: ndi alam nun nand2 e
ava: yep
ava: ano? (may dumaan na trike e.. hehehe)
ava: e nakasama sa headset
ava: ok, check ko
ava: naka-connect naman
ava: saan?
ava: ok
ava: ndi umiilaw :(
ava: ayaw..

since ayaw mag-work, na-kontento na lng kami na sya ang nagsasalita at ako nag-ttype. Hulaan nyo na lang kung ano sinasabi ni Migs. hehehe

ava: naisip mo ba na baka niloloko lng kita na ndi nagwwork yun mic?
ava: :p
ava: ano? lakasan mo
ava: ah..
ava: hehehe
ava: :))
ava: ganito pala feeling ng mute
ava: meron
ava: haha
ava: ok, pano?
ava: ha?
ava: ata
ava: tapos?
ava: ulit..
ava: ok na?

after sometime..

ava: nakakapagod to a
ava: daya!
ava: haha.. bkt wala kayong rice cooker
ava: napapalaban yun typing skills ko
ava: nag-hang yun webcam mo
ava: ndi ka gumagalaw
ava: ayan

Mahaba pa yun usapan namin kaya lugi talaga ako. Pero ok lang din kasi dami sya nakwento. Buti pa si Migs, na-try na mag-ski! :D

all in a day's work

Saturday was hectic but fun.

It was Baby Migz' baptism, so we had free lunch. hehe

I had my TMJ therapy around 3pm and watched The Promise afterwards with Mai, Dionne and Lyra at Robinson's Galleria. We were supposed to watch The Holiday but Mai has a DVD, so opted for the former.

The movie was long (about 2 hours) and we had to bear with the group seated behind us. I know I also comment on movies pero hindi kasing lakas ng boses nila. Buti na lng nakakatawa yun ibang hirit nila.

After the movie, I went to Ateneo to watch Sandaang Panaginip with A. Kams and Dulce. Then, we accompanied her to the LFN but we just stayed outside since we are not really participants in the event.

Around 1030pm, Janina called and invited me for an overnight at Westin (now Hotel Philippine Plaza). They had an event but not all the participants are staying for the night, hence there are free rooms.

It was the eve of the Chinese New Year, so we were able to watch some fireworks along our way to the hotel.

Matagal na kami hindi nakakapag-usap so kwentuhan kami until around 2am. It's a good thing the breakfast buffet was until 1030am kaya umabot pa din kami kahit late na nagising. Hindi ko na lang nasulit kasi mabagal pa din ako kumain at hirap mag-chew.

The room was was under the name of a certain Dr. Angelita Go, so we were laughing when the waiter confirmed it he had the correct name. None of us looked Chinese and I think we were too young to be doctors.

Ang lamig!!! Anong nangyayari? Hindi naman pasko. Dapat mainit dahil malapit na ang summer.

Nakakaantok tuloy. At dahil dun 2 araw na akong unproductive dito sa office. Hindi ko matapos tapos yun ginagawa ko. Ayaw gumana ng utak ko e.

Tapos parang ang lungkot pa ng pakiramdam. Well, hindi naman malungkot as in "malungkit". (Ang labo nun a?) Basta iba lang.

I was cleaning up my inbox when I saw this.

A note from the Post Office was in my table last last Monday. It says I have to pick up a package. I got a little scared at first since I couldn't think of anyone who could be sending me something. The note says that the contents still needed to be checked by the customs. It could be something illegal.

Anyway, I went to pick it up before lunch since the Makati Post Office is just 5 minutes away.

To my surprise, it was from Nabuur (one of my online volunteering orgs). Straight from the Netherlands!

I realized that I'm not that good at keeping relationships when we are separated by distance or when we rarely see or talk to each other. It requires effort on my part, sort of warming up.

But then, there are these people that grow but seem to never change. And that helps a lot.

TMJ revisited

>> Monday, December 18, 2006

Two weeks ago, I went to see a TMJ specialist to finally put an end to my clicking-locking-painful jaw. 3 x-rays and several other procedures confirmed that indeed I have a TMJ dysfunction.

I have a deep bite and my right condyle is less than a millimeter away from my temporal bone. Hence, the clicking and the pain. My left condyle is only a millimeter away. The normal distance should be 3 millimeters.

Also, I can only open my mouth to a max of 29 millimeters. The normal range is 40 millimeters. (Yes, I have been having difficulties with biting but it does not stop me from eating a lot in the past few months.)

The dentist said I need to undergo theraphy and wear a splint (bite plate) 24/7 for 3-6 months to correct my bite. The splint and the theraphy would cost me 30 thousand.

Afterwards, she said I need to wear braces. And that would cost a minimum of 40 thousand. Goodness! Sakit ng mayaman pala ito.

I'm not too sure if I really needed the braces. So, I'll have to ask other dentists. I don't want to wear one because it looks painful. And it costs a lot. So, austerity measures na naman ito.

I'll be officially starting my theraphy tomorrow. I hope the splint isn't uncomfortable and that I wouldn't have any speech difficulties while wearing it.

random thoughts

>> Monday, December 04, 2006

i read/found out something this afternoon and all of a sudden i am i getting teary-eyed about everything that i think about..

-----------

we went apartment hunting last Sunday and found a couple of intereseting ones.

one costs 15-16t hou a month (ndi pa confirmed w/c one). 2 flrs, 2 bedrooms, 2 t&b. it was new and nice and clean and spacious.

the other costs 16thou a month. 2 flrs, 2 bedrooms dn. mas malapit compared dun sa previous one.

i asked my housemate why we are leaning towards the first one when the latter is nearer. sbe nya, "pink yun eh.."

ayos, mabigat na criteria pala ang kulay ng walls kaysa sa location.

gusto ko na umuwi. masakit tlga!
