agosto uno

we've finally reached our first year! whew! it's not always happy but what do you know, i guess we need to learn from each other. just had a simple hang-out date yesterday, the kind we haven't done for a very looong time. i had a great time yesterday coz we were able to talk just like the old times. haha![as if unsa na kadugaya, basta just like before :)] i'm really glad we made it through the crazy months of blah.blah.blah. and i just hope this time i won't be too sensitive coz it's sooo darn exhausting. hoping for better days, weeks, months and even years.haha we'll see. i'm looking forward to that. thank you lord.

tooowyerrrs nakooo

woah! it's pretty darn amazing how time flies fast.. was it that fast? naaah. not really. there were times that it felt like fast and there were plenty that one would wish would be over. but whatever it were, i'm glad to have come this far. during lunchbreak i was talking with chrissy about our two years of stay in the company, how sometimes it's not really that enjoyable here[coz we're far far from home...homesick blabbers...things are so costly], and out pay's not that very supportive with us. you know, things an employee usually complains about. told him that i'm absolutely here not because of the money but for the job, and two years on the record is pretty enough for me to decide to...RESIGN!!! haha boang ka dai? shit. the things i got to bear for being far from my family and friends. i'm not being dramatic, i'm just saying that i hope these would all be learning experiences for me to be stronger. and yes, i hope things would go according to plan for the next following months. i still do hope to stay in the company till the first 5 months next year so i can join the annual trip and still get to contribute, if they would allow me to, that is if the MGT wouldn't get so crappy about my plans of resigning. oh well, another come what may situation. 
but yeheeeey to me for getting this far for a job that's situated far from home. i guess the job counts, i wish i have this job in cebu and everybody would be happy!hahaha 


here's some shots i had two years ago when my phone's camera's workin perfectly fine :)

can you guess the 35 movies showcased in the video? guess! guess!haha!

in a couple of weeks and it'd be a year of mainly two things(another year ra diay sa usa). i'm not excited though, too bad. a lot of things can still happen in fifteen days and we don't know whatever's going on on both our heads. it's sooo gubot and i don't know how long it'd stay this way. lately, i have been too irritable on a lot of things, which i myself got annoyed with how my mind's been thinking. and it's very exhausting! hopefully the following weeks would pass by well and would be kind enough to give me a break from all these draining emotions that i don't even need. and i hope that my job's pay on the next cut-off would be good [as in pwede mag-increase na kai kapoy kaayo!] and maybe, i'm really wishing that everything would go well on that awaited date. 

Viva España

i was too zombie-mode yesterday to even type anything about the WorldCup finals. my head was hurting the entire day due to the lack of sleep. sure, i was able to snooze for a couple of hours but it doesn't help much. anyway, i was not really that excited to watch the finals for the reason that the teams i wanted to be in the finals are not the ones playing on it. and for that reason, i did not take much effort on waking up at my 2:30 alarm, snoozed it twice until i turned the alarm off, forgetting and suddenly woke up exactly an hour after, turned on the TV catching halftime of the game.blaaah.*not excited mode but still interested* but fairly enough, Netherlands and Spain did a good job on maintaining zeros until the 116th minute of the game. but still, i thought to myself, it would have been better if it ended with a shootout. nyahaha. congratulations to Spain.! congratulations to friggin octopus Paul. during the awarding, one can't help but also feel good about the winning, those beaming faces and the look of the trophy..woah. it does feel great even winning a game during the intramurals, what more in a WorldCup finals.!nyahahaha xD. just have to steal some shots from our TV, feeling naa sa soccer city.haha xD.

*what a coincidence..my first and only not in-the-house viewing for this year's WorldCup was done in some Spanish bar/resto.

and i thought this morning' s game would be an exception. well, i agreed that Spain could win, but at the back of my head i was hoping for Germany to win, despite the heartbreak i got from their winning against my team. this morning, i only get to watch probably the last 3 minutes or so of the game, coz i wasn't able to wake up. i had no clue on who was leading and to whether the mollusk's choice was right. until the sound came and the commentator stated Spain's victory.  haha! that water critter can really guess. or yah it could be psychic. whatever. anyway, at least this finals would be so full of firsts.[click here..] and it would be pretty exciting. and please don't let that octopus decide the finals' fate. i hope i get to wake up 2:30 monday morning and i hope S23 would be kind enough to telecast the game live same as they did for the semis. :)

i want this too!

so perfeclty imperfect!

gotta love the dreamy blurry effect this camera captures!

4teams to go

i'm no longer excited with the World Cup after Argentina's loss to Germany. too bad both teams had to face each other too early. and now, Spain and Germany would be facing each other, still, why do they have to face each other at this stage? but as i see it, Germany would be the champion. but i'm just stating that coz it's only their and Spain's games that i have remembered watching their perforrmance. i guess i get to see a little of one of Uruguay's games but it didn't really give me an idea of how they play so i don't know, i don't have any idea how they go. for Netherlands, according to my cousins they were just lucky on their winning against Brazil. still, can't say anything about their performance. good luck to Germany and Spain. there could be good defense for both teams, if Spain makes sure they don't act Argentina on their last game. hmph. WHY?! haha [still hurrting, damnit!] oooh..anyway, here's a video i found from lomo's posts coz there's a guy in the ad wearing a shirt with a  supersampler print. but i'm posting it coz of messi. darn whaaay do they[Germany] have to be sooo harsh! haaahaa

ARGENTINA'S OUT FROM 2010 WORLDCUP

4-0!?

GERMANY MADE THEIR FIRST GOAL AS EARLY AS THE 3RD MINUTE!?

WHAT THE?!

ARGENTINA'S NOT PLAYING PROPERLY.

SO SAD! SERIOUSSSSSLY... I'M SOOOO SAD :(

anyway..kudos to Germany, they were really good.

they did well on their defense making sure Argentina's strikers

couldn't get through. then they had good passes as well. 

porma jud kaayo sila oy! 

kompyansa ra man gud kaayos Maradona oy! tsk!

heehee, Spain's game will be playing this 2:30..

don't really care anymore who wins. haahaa

bitterrrr!

nike ad curse

i forgot to mention, those guys involved in the Nike Write the Future which is in one of my previous posts are were sadly sent home already with their teams. good for Brazil that they didn't include Ronaldinho in their line-up. teehee.

quarterfinals starts tonight!

after a week of not being able to properly catch up with the World Cup games, (the telecasts i have been watching are way too delayed) it's already quarterfinals!!! ohmaaay!! sooo many i missed! darn it! missed the Portugal v España game as well as Argentina v Mexico, slept on Germany v England's 2nd half. bida! it'll be Brazil v  Netherlands tonight, but i'm not really excited about that. the game that i'm really looking forward to would be tomorrow's match between Argentina v Germany. aaaah!!! both teams are just simply...i don't know how to describe it properly basta mao jud ning duwaa na tan-awun jud kai ambot ngano sila pai gaabot ani na stage! makasapot! mga maayo jud oyee!!!  

i hope my cousins would agree tomorrow that we should postpone that sky thingy and watch the World Cup instead, well at least i have iggords on my side na! haha! i'm sure she would hate missing it as well. 

and now as i browsed through my chrome browser, it's just now that i discovered that they're having WorldCup themes as well! haahaa. and just to support mee team, here's what my browser looks like a few hours ago[i switched it back to my original anyway]. and that article from yahoo sports regarding the pressure between Argentina and Germany, Argentinian coach Maradona mocking one of the German player is just hilaaaarious! oh well, come what may. but still i don't mind Germany winning but it'll be great seeing Messi's team advance! 


care for some jackjohnson? click image :)

round of 16 na!

as much as i wanted to post this one over the weekend after tonight's game, i can't coz i don't have internet access at home. so now i only have the 12 team's game schedule. but as i see it, it would be portugal and brazil for group G but still not clear for group H. here are the schedules if any of you care.haahaa :) but i can't deny the fact that im sooo excited for this weekends games. hopefully studio23 would be cooperative.please no US open please.haahaa ;P

FIFAayfoowhfahm

FIFA's in it's last days of it's knockout stage and on the next few days they'll be on the round of 16. Argentina's on a very good spot right now, and i'm definitely rooting for them[Messi's birthday's on thursday!haha]. and i can't believe i missed their game with Greece last night thinking it would be tonight pa. grr! but i'll be cheering for SKorea as well. anyway, there's still Brazil to watch for, and too bad until now, all i see are clips and write-ups about the results of their games. it's because there's no freakin balls in destiny channel that we can't have free live streaming of the game. bummer. anyway, tonight would be US and England's game but not against each other, but im thinking from their group[B], England would be goodbye and US would get in to the next round, considering the points each team earned from their previous games. then on the 25th would be Brazil against Portugal. after Portugal's victory against NKorea the other day [7-0], probably their next game would be something to watch [not icluding ronaldo's dramatic moves..pero okay rsad haha]. referees have been an issue in the current Worldcup, there had been two of them committing erroneous, stupid decisions. 

status of the participating teams after june 22, 2010's games

teams in for the next round: argentina.mexico.skorea.uruguay

ohh well, i hope i get to wake up later tonight to watch studio23's replays and i hope they'ed be broadcasting the England and US game repectively, or maybe Germany's nalang. okay rapud. then again i'll have only 5 hrs of sleep and be late for tomorrow.boo. hope not, on the latter.

sunrise on analogue

one of the reasons one is willing to go on set-ups is they get to travel to some places, at least be out of the office for sometime for free[well, that covers transpo, food and lodging expenses]. or that would only be the reason. travelling alone and bringing all the materials needed for set-up is partly tiring, at least i get to eat all the food cravings i had during the trip [photos at home] and get to see some places i haven't been to before. 


weee! that's right it's already morning and the freakin ferry still hasn't left negros for cebu! sucker. but yes, i was able to visit home even just for three days,  and get to experience the agonizing brown-out sa tubig at our house. hehe who cares? at least i was home. :)

new blog feature!!!! [well not really]

and i thought such feature is not applicable to my blog. and after being bummed for the past months since this feature was announced, here it is! waaaawooo!! now i could change my layout. though i don't know if one could change the background image with a personal one and not one from the option box. test-test for now. haahaa

oh shit! oh shit!

was just too stressed out for the past few days from the set-up and lagyo byahe plus bug-at gamit and other stuff. nothing really to fuss about. and now as i opened my email checking out my daily newsletters from several websites i subscribed to, lomo just let out the new word. the product that they have been giving clues about for the last couple of weeks i think has been launched! waaw! it's pretty damn neat this new thing they've released! the spinner 360º camera! maybe i'm just too excited coz its new or what but at least it made me all smiley or whatever you call it. nyahaha. ang guess what?! it's way cheaper than the horizon kompakt im longing for! but who knows when it would land in philippine shores??!?! gayl! if ever you could check this entry while you're in thailand, and if ever you get to pass by Lomography Embassy Store in Bangkok and got to have a glimpse of this camera. please take a shot of it, better yet, with it with a big smile on your face for me. haha thanks.! if not, well, i'll see this soon. here's some ways to use the camera. and more on their lomo microsite.
