the bomb in the bar will explode at thirteen twenty.
now it's just thirteen sixteen.
there's still time for some to go in,
and some to come out.
the terrorist has already crossed the street.
the distance keeps him out of danger,
and what a view - just like the movies:
a woman in a yellow jacket, she's going in.
a man in dark glasses, he's coming out.
teenagers in jeans, they're talking.
thirteen seventeen and four seconds.
the short one, he's lucky, he's getting on a scooter,
but the tall one, he's going in.
thirteen seventeen and forty seconds.
that girl, she's walking along with a green ribbon in her hair.
but then a bus suddenly pulls in front of her.
thirteen eighteen.
the girl's gone.
was she that dumb, did she go in or not,
we'll see when they carry them out.
thirteen nineteen.
somehow no one's going in.
another guy, fat, bald, is leaving, though.
wait a second, looks like he's looking for something in his pockets and
at thirteen twenty minus ten seconds
he goes back in for his crummy gloves.
thirteen twenty exactly.
this waiting, it's taking forever.
any second now.
no, not yet.
yes, now.
the bomb, it explodes.

we passed diego castillo [guitars, sandwich] twice, my sister and her friends twice, some large fag in white pekpek shorts twice, and two of jendee's friends four times [not counting their being in the same jeep as us on the way to atc in the first place]. additionally, after the third time you walk by the same store within thirty minutes, you start to notice how small atc really is.
freaky.
maybe it is because i'm a gemini.

ah yes, there is absolutely nothing like meandering around campus piss-drunk at five in the afternoon on the second day of classes. so kids, stay away from red horse beer and the game i've never.
nothing much else. for now.

our manang ran off two days ago, but she didn't steal anything. you have to give her kudos for that. turns out she was hiding from a loanshark, who conveniently showed up about two hours after we'd found the farewell note.
first day wasn't as thrilling as i'd hoped it would be. i feel kinda empty actually, like i'd eaten a good meal followed by bad desserts, or like i missed something important.
god, the drama.
i really want to do better this term. judging from the first day, i at least don't have any blatantly bad teachers. of course last term's first day i'd thought charette had a sense of humor and tristan was a sure kwatro.

first off, a belated happy birthday to chami, jp, and anyone else i might have forgotten.
went to school yesterday to enroll, then went bowling afterwards with bj, vince, lyn [bj's cousin], and the aforementioned jp [salamat ulit sa libre]. what a horrible game. can't wait to become rich enough to install my own alley at home.
dinner followed at the westin hotel. i'd promised bj that i'd honor him with a double serving of rice, but at 90 pesos each, that turned out to be an impossibility. what we did have though were kway teow, nasi goreng, jambalaya, skewered prawns, and battered salmon, followed by blueberry cheesecake with three sauces, and gourmet coffee. i asked the waiter where the coffee came from [africa perhaps? latin america?] and he replied that they grew the beans in batangas. well there's honor for you.
at the next table over, there was a japanese tourist who ordered a beer ["that will be 120 pesos, sir"], then paid for it in one-peso coins. now i've seen everything.
exploring the hotel with my sister, i came across the hotel lounge, which was sunk two feet into the ground and furnished in the japanese style - futons, low tables, ikebana, and decorative kimonos. you know what they say about great artists stealing.

a tornado hit nueva ecija yesterday. wicked. i didn't know we had those here. big-ass ones, at least. i remember that there used to be a whirlwind of leaves dancing around in the intersection between the four gloriettas. but then they renovated something, thereby changing the wind patterns, and it was goodbye cool weather formation. there's the butterfly effect for you. i'm not referring to the movie, in case you're wondering.
the da vinci code's website has a new puzzler. but you probably already knew that. in case you didn't, don't bother with the screencaps - they're no help at all. just get the book, or browse for an answer key.

crashed the lpep with paco and chudor. or at least that was the idea. paco met up with bunny so chudor and i hung around the student council office instead. turns out that the frosh this year are getting a welcome cd with games, sample mps, and such. i don't recall last year's council being that generous. the worst part is that the cd also contains detailed instructions on how to set up the school internet account. god knows the server's already way too crowded.
noonish we decided to go to g4 and watch a movie. the lrt was naturally crowded so i wasn't able to push my way inside much. at one of the stops some loudmouth called back "'wag ka ngang nakaharang sa daan, para kang gago!" at me.
asshole. nakababa ka naman diba!?
ended up watching van helsing. paco said dracula was a fag. i both concur and beg to differ. it was the 15th century - everyone was gay. except back then they called it 'sensual'. besides, vampires are supposed to be metrosexual [this is the first and last time i am using this term in printed media].
chudor will probably kill me if i don't plug air gear so i might as well. the manga is at the very least extremely well-drawn, and i suppose i must mention the gratuitous fan service. wish there was an animated version though.
the i of the dragon [a game this time] looks enticing as well. perhaps after i upgrade. oh, and if anyone has a working septerra core cd, i will purchase it from you for a reasonable price. just drop me a line or two.

my mom just came back from korea. aside from the usual pickled vegetables and gadgets [my uncle works for microsoft], she brought back a couple or so things that i felt were blogworthy:
i. electric bug zapper
it's shaped like a tennis racket and has a sillhouette of a rabbit holding a carrot on the mesh. evidently you swing it wildly overhead and it fries any bugs it hits. my sister says she saw one just like ours on mtv whatever things.
ii. dickwatch
this is a belt with a watch on the buckle. pretty cool actually, at least when it's still in your hand. but how do you check the time in public without looking like a pervert?
iii. stainless steel soap
it's supposed to remove odors when you rub it on your skin. from my experience it just makes you smell like stainless steel. but the metallic tang does overpower any original scents so technically it works.
she also brought back two microsoft shirts. one even says "doing the right thing" on the back. talk about your oxymorons. at least i found out she was serious about upgrading our pc [finally]. i'll spend the next week or so canvassing before i purchase anything so until then any advice is welcome.

rupert won a million dollars through the favorite survivor castaway award. that was a really generous move on the part of mark burnett and company. it's like they just thought of some excuse to give him the money. i mean who else could've possibly won?

the zoo itself was worse off than i remembered but given the company i still managed to have quite a good time. if the previous year's editorial board was the 'videoke eb', this year's board is obviously the 'evil eb'. cases in point:
"'pag nakakakita ako ng elepante parang 'di s'ya totoo. parang kung nagbabakasyon ka tapos makakakita ka ng magandang tanawin at sasabihin mo, 'ang ganda parang postcard.'"
"as sir groyon would say, 'poor city kids.'"
"oy tignan n'yo palalayain na ni jomic yung ahas."
"ang taba naman nitong bayawak. erap mode, yaaa!"
"para sa'n yung manok?"
"pagkain nung sawa."
"ang tawag d'yan, 'live show'."
"bakit itong enclosure dalawa lang 'yung laman e yung sa kabila, pito?"
"monogamous 'tong dalawa. 'yung sa kabila, orgy."
"mura lang 'tong ice cream kaso yelo lang 'yung laman."
"ganun talaga 'yun. ice is the essence of ice cream."
"anong klaseng ibon 'yan?"
"cassowary."
"chocobo."
"ang ganda nung tigre."
"magandang gawing skirt."
"ba't walang laman 'tong enclosure na 'to?"
"eto ata 'yung invisible animal."
"a kaya pala 40 pesos 'yung entrance fee."
"may bago rin pala silang hayop dito - homo sapiens karpinterosis."
"kabayo raw 'yung may pinakamagandang butt sa lahat ng hayop."
"o? ba't 'di ako nagagandahan sa puwit ng kabayo?"
"harang yung buntot e."
"puro tae lang laman ng cage na 'to."
"ang dali lang siguro nitong i-maintain. biro mo, magpapatae lang sila nang magpapatae."
"'dandi, may tago akong pagnanasa sa 'yo.'"
"'teka alis lang ako saglit.'"
"'don't tease the animals.'"
"pangit! pangit!"
"anong flavor gusto mo?"
"chocolate."
"ok so strawberry na lang ako."
"cute. ako yung seme ikaw yung uke."
"'silver fox.'"
"color blind pala ako. black nakikita ko e."
"'di ka nag-iisa."
"'...this is responsible for its "foxy smell."'"
"sana ako rin maging foxy 'yung amoy ko."
"ang distinguished naman ng porma nitong unggoy."
"parang pope."
"tingnan n'yo - ang laki nung ari ng paniki."
"o' nga 'no ang laki."
"daig pa n'ya kabayo."
"iba 'yung amoy ng mga hayop dito. hindi mabaho."
"amoy nachos para sa 'kin."
"gutom na ako. tara, nachos tayo."
"ang dumi tignan ng mga zebra. halos orange na."
"feel nila tigre sila."
"baboy, baboy, gusto mong sumama sa 'kin sa probinsya? piyesta ngayon."
"teka bigla kong nase-sense si pb."
i tried starting a multiplayer game of diablo ii with anson but the connection always fails. strange. neither of us had changed any settings so i'm thinking either a software incompatibility or the inability of a fiber-optic cable to sustain a dcc. both hypotheses are highly improbable so can anyone point me in a simpler or at least more logical direction?

i. pop machines
what she said.
ii. namfrel quick count
i can't remember anything except that i spent more time jamming, eating, and|or talking with my friends than actually doing any counting. oh and someone put a latex glove filled out with ice in the drinks cooler. wicked.
as of namfrel's 12mn count, fpj is leading. i'm doublethinking whether he really is the greater evil. which is worse, a puppet government or a dictatorship? gma does command more respect from other countries but she kisses bush's ass like nobody's business. the problem with this situation is that we can't help but assume that fpj is totally incompetent. i'm not saying that he is or isn't, just that he at least has some semblance of heart. amateurs built the ark; professionals built the titanic. but it really doesn't matter. whoever wins, we lose. heart attack or cancer - it's your call.
iii. never reheat rice in a microwave
unless you enjoy corned beef con puto.
iv. survivor all-stars
my sister tells me amber won the million dollars. or rather rob did, plus his own hundred thousand, a truck, a car, and a wife. it would seem justice has been dead for quite some time.
v. the great blogger relaunch
is it just me or is every online community jumping on the friendster bandwagon? at least the random question was kinda fun to answer.
none of these headings have anything to do with the subject. i'm just tired, is all.

william hung's inane rendition of she bangs is playing yet again on mtv. he gets a million-dollar contract while thousands of more deserving singers and bands have to work their asses off for much less recognition. hell i can sing and dance better than he does. it just goes to show that it's not what you know but rather what you do that counts.
sparknotes' gender test tells me i am 72% woman. wtf. if you want to take the test yourself and don't want to register, use my account. my username and password are both "stani614".
kuya maynard dragged me off to another diocesan meeting yesterday. i saw ms juanillo there. heard she's the new campus ministry head or something. go figure.
i still have no literal translation for kapâ [yaps gave me a phrase rendition when he dropped by yesterday but i forgot what it was] but i do remember that its application is termed "playing by ear". case in point, i can now play the solo of ako'y sa 'yo, ika'y akin by ear. wala lang.
you're the only one is the definitive modern love song. the melody's not bad either. think the sweater.

try to find the piano piece mindanao orchids. it sounds exactly like the orchids are choking a tree to death.
takagism's viridian room is up. finished it last night around 3am. the crimson room was way better but i can't seem to find an online link. direction will be appreciated.
the meteor shower's supposedly until may 10. not that i have much motivation to actually go stargazing. unless of course alcohol is involved.

before anything else, check out the ten worst album covers of all time. launch radio's hits of the 90's station rocks. plus, it goes well with my new hobby, chording out songs on my playlist [why is it that kapâ has no exact english equivalent?]. my dad wants to buy a new box instead of upgrading our old one. that's not a bad idea either. what do you think?

my tutee cancelled on me [yes i work even on sundays - friday's my day off] so i took the opportunity to watch school of rock instead. the movie was so-so but the talents they found were jaw-dropping, not even counting the fact that they were ten-year-olds. oh and for those who've already seen the film, specifically the portable amplifier jack black was sporting in a couple of scenes, my birthday's on the fourteenth of june. thanks in advance.
when i got home manang informed us that she had bought a couple of vcds at sm bicutan, namely jeepers creepers 2 and hellboy. she's been doing that a lot lately, probably to convince us that she's 'indispensible'. right. anyway my sister and i watched jeepers creepers first then she put in hellboy, to take her mind off the former before going to bed [which she did after ten minutes]. i on the other hand made the mistake of walking past the tv sometime later and sitting down, fully intending to just finish off the first half.
which brings me here, two discs and a headache later. i should really stop convincing myself i can quit mid-movie. that's like asking me to stop reading mid-sentence. hell, i can't even stop reading mid-chapter. owel i'll just check up on a few blogs before hitting the sack.

when i got home manang informed us that she had bought a couple of vcds at sm bicutan, namely jeepers creepers 2 and hellboy. she's been doing that a lot lately, probably to convince us that she's 'indispensible'. right. anyway my sister and i watched jeepers creepers first then she put in hellboy, to take her mind off the former before going to bed [which she did after ten minutes]. i on the other hand made the mistake of walking past the tv sometime later and sitting down, fully intending to just finish off the first half.
which brings me here, two discs and a headache later. i should really stop convincing myself i can quit mid-movie. that's like asking me to stop reading mid-sentence. hell, i can't even stop reading mid-chapter. owel i'll just check up on a few blogs before hitting the sack.

i didn't realize that i could miss the smell of wet earth. too bad the rain didn't last long. in other news, i'm currently trying out the beta version of yahoo messenger 6. aside from the avatars, audibles, additional emoticons, and massive slowdown, there really isn't that much of a difference. in a related incident, i now rarely sleep earlier than 2am so if you'd care to chat, i'm online more often than not from 11pm onwards. and on a final note, i just learned that roald dahl is the author of lambs to the slaughter. wicked.

scored free tickets. got lost on the way to amoranto stadium. asked for directions and got seven different answers. laughed blatantly at a policeman's stupid answer to said directional query. gave up my techpen at the entrance. was covered in dust. claimed freebies. made some new friends. dodged flying bottles of pepsi energy cola. concluded that the afternoon was kitchie nadal's run. was invited to join a pyramid scam [but of course he called it "scheme"]. played 20 questions. prayed that sugarfree would play telepono. heard telepono. left when shotgun-toting security started making rounds [in anticipation of cheese's set].
