Envy.

It's funny how boredom and curiosity don't mix sometimes. I have been waiting for 2 customers to leave so I decided to cure my boredom by checking Friendster and Google. Bad move.

I started seeing these people who we're close friends of mine that are in London for conferences or in the states as immigrants. Then there are also the ones that never left the country but are doing even better than others. They are married, have cars, building their own homes, partying and meeting celebrities and artists. I felt a pang of envy.

I have nothing against these people. It's just that, I look back and see my life and wonder if I'll ever get even near what they have. I keep on convincing myself that I'm here and I just have to make the best of it.

Another thing that is in line with the title is I felt left out. I know what you're thinking - duh! But hear me out...

On second thought, I retract that last snivel.

I left. Therefore it's normal to feel a little out.

ang idol kong rakista

There are a lot of reasons why I watch the noontime show, Eat Bulaga. Aside from watching it since they were on Channel 9, I love seeing Julia. (ooohhh) Julia Clerete, ladies and gentlemen, is one of the reasons I tune to the show. She's amazing. She's cute, funny, talented and has a black belt in taekwondo. I'll give you a more detailed profile of her in my coming entries. I waited till I can download her carrier single "bumalik ka lang" before I talk about her. I had to sweep the internet for the lyrics, thanks leiababe, for them.

Bumalik ka lang

magandang umaga,
nandyan ka na pala
di halos makatulog
sa pag-aalalaka

musta naman dun,
masaya ka naman ba?
tandaan mo lang
pag doo'y sawa ka na

bumalik sa akin
nangangakong ako'y maghihintay sa'yo
tuparin mo ang iyong pangakong
buuin ang puso ko

bumalik ka lamang....

ilang taon na bang dumaan
ilang taon pa ba dito sa tagpuan
mag-isa pa ring ngumingiti
naghihintay pa rin sa'yong pagbabalik

bumalik sa akin
nangangakong ako'y maghihintay sa'yo
tuparin mo ang iyong pangakong
buuin ang puso ko

bumalik ka lamang..
ohhhh ohhhh
bumalik, bumalik ka lang
bumalik, bumalik ka lang
bumalik ka lang

Here's the video of that song. I'm sorry if it's not your dish but I like it. Enjoy!

TGI friday

Over here, it's a different story. Friday IS the only rest day for most of us. Saturday is monday. So people do stuff on thursday night. Like "sabado nights", that's the day where the bars and malls are packed. I, for one, don't like doing stuff on thursday. You can't enjoy much at a bar where you can't even sit. Neither can you eat out and wait an hour for you food to arrive. Fortunately my rest day is monday. Manic Monday. My roommate has that song on his cellphone. Never understood that guy's taste for music.

After writing that entry above, if you'll call it an entry, I'm suddenly overthrown by boredom. The itch. The inexplainable need to be occupied by something or anything. Gawd. I wonder if there's a person that enjoys this. So, yes, it's safe to say that this blog is a by-product of boredom. And it sucks.
