So, about last night…
Yesterday I was a jerk. A full blown, who gives a crap, total jerk. I guess I was tired. Of being politically correct. Of making sure everyone had it great. Of putting up with things I really didn’t want to. I jerked it up. It was so out of character. For me, who usually wants everything and everyone to be fine, for everything to be smooth. I put myself first. I did what I wanted to do. I didn’t care about the consequences of what I did. No, I didn’t do anything totally radical. I didn’t commit any crimes, no irreperable damage. I just was different. And it felt good.…

What’s done in the dark will always come to light. Especially when it’s dishonest. Yes, I’m talking about you.

Harder, better, faster, stronger
I am learning, that we all have to have thick hides to survive in this world. Too often, we the sheltered believe that people will treat us fairly, and will pat us on the back if things go badly.

After getting my hyperacidity back after a couple of years, we finally got our coke shirts. We refused to buy the fake ones for sale we saw at various places, stuck to our guns and waited patiently. Thanks to Karlo for telling Sarah and me about the Greenwich promo. Thanks to Abi, Vins, Pao, Kiko, Rc for eating the five meals for the two shirts. 🙂 You can’t see it, but I have the biggest grin under the shirt.…

The short game
Sometimes, I’m envious of people who have 5 year plans, long term goals. I am a person who lives for the moment. No plans for the future, I don’t even have a life path yet. Going where life takes me is basically what I do. I guess I’m a whole lotta Pinoy in that sense of the bahala na thinking. In that sense I am all about the short game. What’ll make me happy in the moment, I’m there. No thinking of the long term effects, no second thoughts of the pain that it’ll cause in the long run. I live in the now. Trying to justify this with the…

Thought of the day:
As big of a person as I am physically, I feel like I’m turning to vapor. Next week I think I’ll be gone.
