Slowing down the blogs
bulate means worm. It's a long story on how that term got to be as it is being used now.
I was thinking of cramming for tomorrow's exam but then again, what the heck. I'll rely on my luck and pure guessowrk instead hehehe
I just remembered that feeling when I had a double shot of tequila on an almost empty stomach. The result: instant knock out!! hahaa! I was suddenly looking at cloudy faces and my head swam over something with the sweet feel of the hot liquid on my stomach, I tried to fight the urge to sleep instead. I do remember everything, of course. I don't believe those things about not remembering anything when you're drunk. It must be a line being used by men a long time ago as a pathetic attempt for an excuse. Give me a break.
I have no issues recently (even work issues..imagine that). I guess this means I'm breezing thru my life these past few weeks. I'm happy. A little sad because I miss my family and friends. I was not able to visit my friends last month because, well, I'm broke. What an issue.
I finally had little work to do today. So little that I was actually bored at work. I deliberately slowed down on my work so I wouldn't run out of work to do. I was so used to being swamped by loads of work that I felt weird for not hurrying up on my taks and for not finding anything to do.
I thought being able to do some sports was something very cool that I tried hard so to be good on at least 1 sport. But alas, as much as I want to be good at one, sports doesn't seem to like me. I set my heart out to be good in volleyball since primary school, but unfortunately, I was one of the first kids "voted out" of the team. So I tried some basketball, but with me having the best arm in the world.. the ball wouldn't even reach the ring. I tried badminton.. I was OK but I'm not competition material... same with table tennis. I can play but not good enough even if I try to learn seriously.. then I went bowling and even bought shoes for those.. unfortunately, it's just enough for me to have fun, but not good enough to be on some kind of competition. I tried my luck on billiards, but I never win. Even with our own billiards stuff on our home basement does not help at all.. I always lose. So what else is there? I went winter. I learned how to ski, learned it well, but after taking a look at the winter olympics on TV, there's no way I can reach that! Not in my wildest dreams! I'm just happy enough to know how to ski and then keep myself sliding down the slope on my 2 feet. Oh, I even attempted ballroom dancing! It was OK but I can never be a natural. I can only dance properly if I spent endless hours of practice. So much for my body coordination.
I started cross stitching as a hobby when I was still in high school. Though I'm not the type of person to just stay in the house and mend someone else's old socks, I kind of enjoy a couple of handicraft works. Well, I had no choice, my mother was so good at doing those things that I kind of got myself to learn them.
It's been a while since I last talked to my family. I miss talking to my father, I miss playing baby games with my niece, and I miss shopping with my sisters. I miss talking about different things with my brothers, and I miss driving my mother around. Japan is so peaceful yet sometimes, too much stress and free time makes me miss the very busy streets of manila, the solemn mass at Lourdes Church in Tagaytay or just the usual book browsing at Powerbooks while waiting for the traffic to untangle themselves.
..was the last time I got my hands on the internet? yesterday.
