i received a call last night asking whether i wanted to attend this certain party. ooops... i can't. i was at gloria jean's with someone. but even if i could, i won't. i would like the guy's partner to have his full attention on such special occasion.
some girl shows up and some guys forget that they're already taken. i hate that. i may talk to you, and smile at you, and laugh with you, but you can be sure i know where to draw the line. i am good to wives and sweethearts. i will never share nor take away someone else's man. i hope when it's my guy's time to falter, he would chance upon someone like me...
texts
i received the following text yesterday:
A handsome hunk strips in front of a nun to tempt her.
The nun closed her eyes,
and prayed,
"Bless me, Father, for this Thy gift, which I am about to receive..."
ooops... hahaha. i wanted to forward it to my friends but then i've already forwarded another text message earlier so i was looking forward to forwarding it instead today. (i try to limit forwards to one a day. i'm not really a texter. the only texting i do is when there's something important i have to say and i'm trying to save on call charges. forwards i limit to those i particularly like, the rest simply stop with me. and even then, i forward only to those in my sun network plus family and a handful of different-network-friends. (i have unlimited calls and texts sun to sun. if you're sun, you send me a text and my first option is to call you. even if i'm just going to say ok, i call you, haha. the only time i text back is if i'm not supposed to make a call, for example, i'm in a meeting, or i want to keep a record of the exchange, for example, important instructions, or i think you might not be able to take a call.))
anyway, morning, i was so excited to forward the text to my friends. but then upon getting my phone, i see that i have an unread message, this time from my mom. it went:
( " ) Sunday
"( รถ )" is a
( " wonderful
./ ,%, opportunity
to pray
to love
to learn
to laugh
to care
and to celebrate the joy of life with GOD.
Have a blessed Sunday :)
nice : ) now this is a more appropriate forward on a sunday. the hunk-nun one is kinda irreverent : }
today, therefore, i forwarded my mom's text instead. the irreverent one i'll send out tomorrow ; )
pictures
i was on the phone with someone last night and he had the following observations:
1. this album i posted had over 200 pics
2. for a series of shots, if i'm not in the pic, he is not sure whether the pics are really different. but if i'm in the pic, he right away knows that they are different.
re #1, with me, that's nothing unusual. i've been our family's photographer since second year high school (a long, loooooong time ago). still film that time yet i was using up so many rolls. now it's digital, no film expense. all the more that i just click and click and click. even if i'm talking to someone or doing something, i just go on clicking. i multi-task ; )
then i check the pics. i delete the ones where you have people with eyes half-closed. i dunno, i have a thing about eyes half-shut. it makes me cringe calling to mind possession. i also delete pics where people's heads are out of frame, as in, they're only shown up to the neck. i think of beheading. ugh! so many hang-ups, what is wrong with me??? anyway, i also delete those where people's mouths are going this way and that. for multiple shots, people often go on talking and the mouths look either funny or awkward when the pics come out.
i also delete 'ugly' shots. just last week i was showing my officemate a pic i was deleting with a heavy heart. i was sooo cute there!!! (hahaha, believe in yourself) but then there's someone in the pic who was caught in a rather unflattering angle. my officemate was telling me to just crop the pic instead of deleting. i said with me it's all or nothing. i don't want to leave a trace of an ugly shot : }
the remaining pics i upload. all of them, hahaha. i don't really expect people to look at every single one. i'm thinking they'd go over the thumbnails and just click those they find interesting. but then, it seems there really are those who look at everything : }
an aunt e-mailed me before that her internet connection was slow so she's still at the 200-somethingth pic. ooops...
in his speech at our christmas party a couple of years ago, a batchmate said he looks forward to the pictures he receives, especially if they're from me, and he really looks at them one by one! uh-oh. that would consume a lot of time : }
oh, well... i was chiding my ex before, he goes out of the country and comes back with only three shots. i just go to the other room and i take a hundred, hahaha.
re #2, i have a camera you could set for one to ten shots. there are those who find ten too much so they just want me to set it to five or three. whatever the setting, if it's multiple shots, then i move with every click. front, back, left side, right side. i'd even do top and bottom if i could, hahaha. but then oftentimes, my companions in the frame don't move at all. as in from shots one to three, sometimes, even from shots one to ten, they barely twitch, hehe. if i'm not in the pic, you would have a hard time distinguishing that it's a different shot. but, yup, if i'm there, you would know for sure -> mega-pose, mega-project, hahaha. you should try it sometime. you might find it silly, but it's fun... : )

baby
a former officemate visited me at the office the other day. this guy never runs out of jokes and i remember him most for the following, sung to the tune of i believe :
♪ every time i hear a new-born baby cry
it worries me, it might be mine
but never mind, i'll deny... ♫
ooops...
i'm out of here
my officemate was telling me that there's a scheduled testing of this deliverable by some contractor.
i was like, 'yikes! will (blank) be there?'
she says no.
i heave a sigh of relief, hahaha
you see, i was craving mushroom soup last saturday so i drove over to market!market! i was supposed to order at KFC but they were not anymore accepting customers when i arrived : }
i crossed over to kenny rogers this time expecting to get mashed potato. it was already late so i explicitly asked whether they still have said side dish as i couldn't see any from the glass display. i was told they have. when it was already my turn at the cashier, however, they told me that they've ran out. oh!
i was thinking of a substitute when suddenly i notice that the guy beside me in the other line, an arm's length away, was said contractor. ooops... i was't wearing a b _ _ !!! we greet each other then i tell the cashier that i'm not ordering anymore since they have no more mashed potato. i immediately say bye to the guy then move over to max's. there i satisfied instead my craving for caramel bars...
