happy, shalala

two days ago...
day 27 of 29 days over. we packed up just as the skies were about to turn morning-blue. a lot of bristling going on that night. a couple of boys from our staff got into a fist fight.

yesterday...
day off. fed with sleep. woke up past 12 noon. did a little shopping for pasalubongs. oh yes, home is in sight. but since we haven't been given our wages yet i had to budget (ha! as if i ever did any "budgeting") the shopping dough within my means. went to benh than, an "organized version of divisoria" (as one co-worker called it), and haggled my way around. one little discovery that i made was that they lower the prices once you pretend to go away. say "i'll come back, your stuff is too expensive" and actually turn your back to leave, and they'll give in to your asking price. haha. mas madali palang bumigay ang mga tindero't tindera dito.

at night, watching "the da vinci code" on dvd with the coworkers-at-the-carpool. the book was entertaining enough but not the type that would go down in literature history, but the movie itself would probably be a tad more forgettable than the novel. not that horrible, i've seen worse, but i was expecting more from someone like ron howard (who directed "parenthood", my favorite from the 90s). and of course, tom hanks. and audrey tatou would probably be better off going back to doing french films.

today...
woke up at 3 pm, in a happy mood. and why not. i'm going home in four days. tomorrow will be a light work day (and let's not think about the heavy workload for last day yet, it will all fall into place).

right now...
ang ingay ng mga punyetang naglalaro ng PS2 sa paligid ko. i'm almost inclined to agree with a Canadian co-worker saying that the Vietnamese language sounds like "the clanging of pots and pans". ang chaka talaga sa tenga! hah!

ooh, beeyatchy! haha. fg, fg. kung kelangan ng inspirasyon, lagi at lagi na lang akong babalik sa yo. the others just won't do it for me. masokista ako e.
