stopover
i've been riding on jaro cpu jeepneys in the middle of the night ( or early morning ) for almost 2 years now. paranoia never struck me. last night, was the first.
i bade goodbye to andy and berl and the statue of honorable jalandoni after chowing at chowking when i saw the midnight blue jeep. it was nameless ( jeepneys usually have names, like "god is watching", "arlene joy" or "scorpio", among others.)i didn't notice the other passengers until i was settled in the jeep. there were 3 guys inside the jeep. the other two were seated at the far back and the other one was seated behind the driver. they all looked creepy. i was alarmed when the driver drove the jeepney like we were in a good friday procession. i swear i could have ran faster than the way he drove the vehicle. it seemed like they all knew each other and i was the odd one in there. i started to feel alarmed. i looked for my pen in my bag and held on to it. i could have gotten off if only the road was not so dark. i felt thankful when we finally got to mcdonald's. i said "lugar" to manong and hurriedly got off the jeep. i was so nervous. i went inside monsteriffic to calm my nerves for a while. when i felt okay, i got out of the convenience store and took another jeepney. this time, i didn't feel anything uncharacteristic.
ugh! i guess it's time to learn martial arts or get another can of tear gas.

comma cafe
my sister and i visited andy's boarding house to check the vacant room. the three of them, berl, andy and my sis, ended up checking on ghosts and dark auras in the rooms and under the bed. ugh! to get rid of the goosebumps we decided to hang out somewhere.
we discovered "comma cafe", a small Korean cafe along m.h.del pilar st., molo. it's managed by a young Korean couple. they were actually nice, friendly and accommodating. i remember how we kept asking for a glass of water and the lady was saying "tea!". and we said, "no, water." she explained to us that they have this "tea", water from boiled brown rice. we instantly said "okay, we want to try it." the "tea" tasted good and we kept asking for some more.
we spent the rest of the time laughing, palm reading, talking about ghosts and enjoying our spicy ramen, blueberry latte, choco banana waffle and the "tea". we loved the comfortable ambiance in the cafe. no wonder we didn't leave the cafe until closing time.

JBourne
i've been putting off the Bourne series which my friend gave to me. i've been putting it off because i was, and i still am, sure that i'd fall in love with Jason Bourne. and i wasn't ready to fall in love, at that time.
i guess, there's no avoiding JBourne now. he's the first one that i thought of when i woke up this morning. so i immediately took out sam from where he was hiding and plugged in my friend's hd with the Bourne series.
now showing: The Bourne Identity.
i wouldn't mind being Joanna Marie Bourne.
ah! i think i have my own jmb series here...

cool art
Two sculputures at the waterfront in Marseille - Ever feel like you've forgotten something? No its not a mind trick - these are the amazing photos of sculptures done by a French artist. The sculptures are the work of Bruno Catalano and might look like theyre missing vital organs but the invisible bodies represent a world citizen according to their creator.

krikrikrikri
i've been listening to jiminy cricket's sound for almost an hour now. it's my first time to hear a cricket sound here in the city, so i was kind of amazed at first.
i'm about to go to sleep now. i hope jiminy cricket will fly and amaze someone somewhere else. i'm kind of starting to get annoyed already...

stuck
i still can't get out from the world of augustus waters and hazel grace lancaster. if john green, the author of the book "the fault in our stars" would ask me to rate the pain that i felt in my heart while reading his book, i'd give him a 10. at some point, i even got confused of my feelings because i was already crying due to the fact that augustus waters was going to die, then i would laugh at what isaac would say in his eulogy, then i would cry again then i got angry that peter van houten showed up at gus' funeral and all the roller coaster of emotion that made me sulk after the end of the shift. i even excused myself from the friday eat-out ritual with the people at work because i needed to be alone to come to terms with what i feel as a side effect of reading "the fault in our stars".
but i'm going to be okay. hazel grace and augustus, everything will be okay, okay?

it's Korea's Memorial Day
finally!!! i was able to pamper myself at the spa. there's no better way to spend the holiday than having a mani / pedi and (this is very new to me. my first time, actually) an ilok wax. phew! it was like a torture! the ilok wax, that is. gawd! but i was able to endure it. my pain tolerance just went up to 130 tolerabite! hmmm...i think i can endure the needles now. hihihi
# may everyone in Korea have a good Memorial Day #
