It's Friday I'm in Love!

Masarap ang buhay nagta-trabaho; pag kumikita ka na ng sarili mong pera,

pag nabibili mo na ang mga bagay at napupuntahan ang lahat ng lugar na gusto mo.

'yung pakiramdam na ikaw na ang boss ng sarili mong buhay. 

Kayod-kayod at petiks-petiks din. O kay sarap hintayin ang akinse at katapusan 

para mapasakamay ang inaasam na kayamanan. Sadyang parang kay bilis ng

paglipas ng mga araw.

Isang araw sa kalagitnaan, simula, o sa pagtatagal mo sa trabaho, malamang

sa hindi ay mapapansin mo na isa ka na sa mga madalas magbanggit ng isa sa

mga katagang sikat sa mga taong nagta-trabaho. Mapa-opisina man yan, ospital

factory, eskwelahan, gym, bar, agency, gobyerno, etc.

"Thank God it's Friday!" o "TGIF!"

Paggising mo isang maulan na umaga, bigla mo na lang masasabi na "Sana

walang pasok.". Panandalian mong maaalala na hindi ka na estudyante at

panandaliang ikalulungkot ito. Masama maghangad ng ikakasama ng iba 

pero aminin mo na minsan ay napapahiling ka na lang na sana ay tuloy-

tuloy ang ulan. Sa isang nakaka-aliw na hinagap, habang ika'y tumatanda,

ay mas nagiging waterproof ka; Parang kang 3-ply tissue na mas matibay

pag nabasa. Kaya't walang signal ng bagyo ang makapag-papahinto ng

inyong trabaho, kahit pa naglalanguyan na ang mga daga sa labas ng

bahay nyo. 

Dadaigin pa ng pagtitipid mo sa pagliban and pagtitipid mo sa pera. Sa isang 

indibidwal gaya ko, bilang na lamang ang mga araw na walang pasok. Maliban 

sa 15 araw na Vacation at 15 araw na Sick leave na ipagkakaloob sa iyo sa 

trabaho, ang ilan pang pagkakataon ay ang mga official holidays gaya ng Araw

ng Kagitingan, Pasko, Bagong Taon, Undas, Araw ni Rizal, Bonifacio Day, Ramadan,

Eidr Ftr (ewan ko kung tama spelling nyan), kamatayan ni Ninoy, Independence 

Day, Labor Day, ang seasonal na EDSA I, at ilan pa. Tiyak kong makakabisado

mo din ang mga ito sa takdang panahon!

Kung mamalasin atpumatak ang mga ito ng Sabado o Linggo, depende na lamang

sa Presidente, kung kagaya ni GMA, na madalas ay inuurong ang pagka-wala ng

pasok sa pinaka-malapit na biyernes o lunes ay laging may long weekend.

Pero dahil si Noynoy na, at ayaw nya ng mga patakaran ni GMA, di uso ang

urong-urong.

Maya-maya lang, sa kakahintay mo ng mga bakasyon at sweldo, magugulat ka

na lamang at nakalipas na ang kalahati ng taon. -Ber months na ulit gaya ngayon.

Mamaya fiesta na samin. Halloween na. Pasko na at kinalaunan ay Bagong Taon

na. Magsisimula ka na ulit sa pagtatala ng kalendaryo ng mga araw na walang pasok

at pag-aabang ng sahod.

Annoyingly happy! :)

          "You cannot reserve a parking by just standing!". Words uttered by a woman seated on the passenger seat of an SUV at a parking in Eastwood City. These words put together already introduced me the kind of push-me-to-my-limit-attitude that woman has. "Try Me!" was the first thought that came to my mind. I have this not-so-famous-talent to get to know a person by the way they talk, act, and through their eyes. Weird indeed, but I can manage. This is not a judgmental gut-feel, but a talent which helps me get along with the people around me.

          Even before you say out loud that you don't like me, I already know. Because I really need not to hear it out loud because your aura and body already shouted it so. How I do that is something I know not of. It just came to like "Ooh ice cream!". But hey! It's not something bad. For a ratio of 1:10 people that dislike me vs. the people that do like me wasn't so depressing. I understand that there really are people made to annoy you, and also believe in it's vice-versa.

            I wouldn't be surprised if there are times I become 'maldita', it's really not my attitude, but having to get along with assortment of attitudes taught me to stand-up and fight for what is right. It's not something bad after all. Tolerating people doesn't teach them anything; sometimes you have to be the median of a person's realization and change.

            I stood at a parking space vacated by a family vehicle so that my tito's car can transfer parking since there were no vacancy on that area earlier, and that the place we first parked stinks because it stood near the garbage dumping area. Dady (my Tito) was getting the car when this suv watched me standing on the vacant slot while they slowed driving infront of me. I didn't mind since they already saw me standing and looking afar on dady. Moments later when I realized that their car's already moving backward towards me. I was like "WTH?! Are these guys BLIND??" and so they slowly continued moving backwards and I on the otherhand moved a little on the side because they didn't even beeped at me.

         They've parked the car. Hooraay for them! Boo at me! Dady already has our car infront of theirs. What kind of people, or should I say, CREATURES would do that? Seriously. It pissed me off. But I didn't hit their car "habang inaatrasan lang naman nila ako" as if I wasn't there. They even have this MAYO CLINIC sticker at the rear window of their car. Bad reputation for a person working for that company. But I wasn't surprised after what had happened to a person named Robert Carabuena who was a professional but acted like KING KONG bred HULK.

          A professional job and a degree you hold still don't determine your personality. Maybe it gives you credibility, but integrity? Lemme think of it. They say what you reap is what you sow, and what they got from me is the karma they are looking for. A straight line on a silver blackboard. *wink* I'm not even bothered at all. That's how karma punches you in the face. And btw, we transfered to SM Megamall after buying our favorite Happy Lemon drink since the movie we're after at Eastwood did not fit our time. We easily got our parking there despite the "1 available" slot posted. That's what we got from being dismayed by unearthly creatures. Reward!

Toodles!
