Rainy Days

Its the time of year again when the heavens cry... the puddles, the muggy weather, the wetness! Something about it that makes everybody lethargic, sleep more, crave for hugs, stay in under thick fleece sheets... So what have I been up to lately... What goes on in the mind of Wentletrap... My Thoughts and my feelings....

The rainy season... I like the idea of a cold weather as I have this thing for wearing "wintry" layered outfits and dead animals! And I hate bringing an umbrella, so when it rains, im wet! And who likes damp clothes and wet shoes... and soggy socks?! eww... they are the worst! But thats not bad compared to the cancelled meetings and appointments and the hassle of going to places and the like. When it rains, cars multiply like gremlins and everybody seems to be out at the same time taking every available transporation and road space. The malls are crowded (I hate crowds), everything takes forever to deliver basically, everything slows down!

At the homefront, I just all of a sudden become the sloth that I really am, but when it rains, im just it a big SLOTH! It will take a cataclysmic catastrophe, or I'd probably just wont mind, to get me out of bed, under those 1500 thread count sheets... hayyy i love to run my toes and fingers over them sheets =) ...today, i was suppose to do some work, scouring for furnitures, lights and appliances, but the weather was just so bed friendly that I ended up sleeping the whole day! Too bad, no one was hugging me...it would have made the whole experience more enjoyable! Ha! but who's complaining, I just had a blast sleeping and rolling and harrassing my 20++ year old pillow...

Ok, ok... I honestly am having blogger's block... but I know I have a point somewhere..hahaha... let me try to be more philosophical this time....

The rain is an analogy to sadness... (serious ba to?), it is also associated with luck and blessings. Some people call it the tears of heaven. So how does this all relate to me? I have no idea! haahah....

Sadness. Well, I have been down lately. Feeling depressed is a recurring part of me, but in the end I rise up to the occassion and let that feeling dissipate. The weather is not helping honestly, it is just making me lethargic and even more depressed. I like to go out, i like to visit new places, meet new people. I need something to do...

Luck and Blessing. With regards to this one, I will not disagree. Its true, the rain is a blessing not only for those that prays for rain, but also for me... for the longest time, I have been complaining of lack of sleep due to work but now, I get to sleep for as long as I want... hahaha... because I don't have work na. Well, I kinda still do... but its another story. I get to hang out with my sis at home and boss her around, to cook me bfast, lunch and dinner, and buy me stuff I dont really need, and eat her stash of foodies! It also give me time to think and ponder about what I want and gives me no excuse not to blog.

Tears of Heaven. I guess, the earth is emphatizing with what and how I feel. Or, im just being too psycho. Its just rain! We really dont have to be to psychoanalytical about the whole thing...

...but yeah, good things and bad... everything has its reason and its place... and im blabbering with no apparent point.... so ill cut this short... this is it for entry no. 45!

MY 2008 Bday

Again, its the time of year, when you get older.... and people greet you hoping to get free grubs and such... hayy... i wish we are more western... that way they treat me out... hayayay.... so what transpired in this most auspicious of all days.... read on if you care =P



Okay... so I woke up at 8am from the barrage well... two text messages... one was from my mom and the other from a client (a client who was suppose to be the source of my retirement fund but hayyy... another story)... okay then i went back to bed again... =P ...i had breakfast, my dad is here by the way and so is my sister, I had bacon and rice... thats about it... oh and a chunk of Cadbury bar c/o my sis howe... and then I went back to bed...

...okay... then I woke up around 2ish... had lunch, steak... then I went back to bed...

...in between people were bugging me, callin and textin, greetin and askin... but i just shrugged them off for the most part... in any case... around 5ish, my dad left na... he's leaving to go back home... so ayun, i ended up just watching the tube and then my sis asked if I was to stay home for dinner... kasi she'll cook spaghetti and chicken, wow, how typical right... but the gesture was well appreciated. Then I hear sounds comin from downstairs... then a few minutes later, her howe, asked if I wanted to go with them to watch The Mummy... hayy...

Long story short...or to make my boring story short... I joined them... so yun, to keep me happy, I ate my spaghetti and chicken... at the cinema, I had 3 Auntie Annes, 1 large soda (coke lite), 1 large popcorn, and some gummi worms... eating makes me happy...and i guess im kinda depressed... oh well... but I am still thankful...

The movie was okay... but I just wasnt feeling it... so yun... now Im doing something interesting I guess... well hope to put in more stuff... i am again getting the hang out of this blogging thing... its been a year.. so hopefully i get more readers and action in this site!



Cheerio...

Happy Birthday?

Happy Birthday to ME!

But whats to be happy about?! well...aside from working on my natalday, then travelling around the metro like a harrassed indiv! i got called a lying...well, to be more precise, i was told i wasnt doing what i was doing! (thinking of a word for it) oh well... i guess, its not a happy birthday after all...

But enough ranting, i guess i should still be thankful for my blessings this year, my family, my new job, my friends, and of course, the people dear to me... although sometimes, those dear to me are my source of unhappiness...

Hay...i hope something good comes out of this day, i went on a major presentation after my not so sumptuous yet slightly expensive dinner on top of one of the buildings in salcedo overlooking the makati area towards laguna bay care of a good friend. At least with the irritation im feeling right now, i get a sale out of my presentation!

Anyways, i also got to meet some distant cousins tonight... its nice to meet people related to you... family circle gets bigger, its funny, im closer to my relatives than with my own family, its sad... i guess its the culture... but its okay, were okay naman.

OH well, im just writing again whatever comes to mind... im just a bit pissed i guess, i dont know, irritated?! im not sure... maybe mad a lil bit... oh well, i guess happy birthdays are just for kids...if you get older, its just another day in your life. ='(

Intrusion of Privacy

How would you feel if someone you hold dear goes thru your personal stuff... a diary... a planner... your cellphone... your message archive! ....and take this! his reason, kasi i wasnt being honest with him daw! what do you guys think? is that reason enough to intrude into someone elses affairs?

and heres the deal... 50% of what he actually read and what he told me... is wrong! of course... everything is open for interpretation... hay... woe is me... and if i did lie to him... i still dont think its justified... what do you think? better yet tell me what to do... because right now i just want to kick his ass! i am so pissed its not even funny! and hurting....geez...i really feel bad and sick! =_(

Journey to Love

The end... end of an era, end of something, end of a phase.... well guys... just a few minutes ago a part of my life, a phase, a chapter, a page... just closed.

Well.. that about explains why I have been on a hiatus for quite a while.... aside from work and travel... i have somewhat tried to work on my emotional needs. But i guess... i am just too much of a man to be "caged" as he said.... i really dont know... i guess... either i am stupid to be dominant or was less of a man to be submissive... either way, its all over... i dont know what will come next

Needless to say... i can categorize this phase as a journey to the unknown... its safe to say that i have loved, but was never in a relationship... my past entries shows that it always ended nowhere... somehow this one i was hopeful... but am not as open to give in...for i am scared to be hurt in the end and hurt the other person in the process.

Im sure he will read this entry one of these days and as i promised.... no mention of him will be done. In any case... it was a series of events that have led to the eventual demise of feelings, both me and him, i suppose. Trust... not the condom! although that was an issue too =P seriously... i guess... i didnt trust him enough... although i was testing him, testing his character...testing his limits... or maybe he just didnt trust me as much as i thought he would.

To be caged? to be guarded... is fine... but up to a certain extent... i have been a wild stallion since i started and i like to go out and have fun... but lately... i am happier with travelling with him and chillin at home or at a resto... actually, he just cant believe that its me...he thinks its all for show. Maybe he knows me more than myself...i dont know...or maybe his sources have hacked my brain already so they know me more than myself...

It was fun while it lasted... a learning experience... i guess... i have never felt more loved and cared for... felt secure and protected... its funny now that i think about it... i act like a baby around him... which is something that no one gets to see... people always think of me as prim, proper and stern at times =( but i guess... i really felt comfortable around the guy so i can act silly, childish and stupid.

I guess... it wasnt meant to be and it had to end abruptly... on the other hand, its a good thing too since i have sort of been dependent on him for things... which normally i wouldnt.... well... you know who you are... and i just want to thank you for everything, i mean everything... its true, no one would have done the things that you have done and i am very thankful for having the chance to be with you for the last 4 months or so.

Hayy... im just blabbering... i guess this is still fresh from the oven! so... i might miss out on some important details...but i guess... in the end... he is really a nice guy... he kinda reminded me of me...and i turned out to be the bad guy... =( oh well... i was his first...and he was mine... (its for our own interpretation)

i miss the guy now =( ...but i guess like all journeys...it has to come to an end....

Wentletrap Resurrected

After a hiatus of a week or so mostly due to work and i was out of the big city... and some other things im back... i thought why should i let things affect me for whatsoever reason...anyways... ill be posting more stuff soon. =)

so there... i just arrived again this morning fresh from Bicol...and i had training earlier, small world, my trainer was a co-varsity of mine back in college... he looks matanda na! hahaha... i guess because of his dominant Euro blood... well im still thankful that mine isn't as dominant...hheheh you gotta love em Asians they look way younger than their age... =P

Weekend in CamSur

Leaving Manila last friday (jun 15) was crazy! ....i wouldve known better... it was start of the weekend at the same time it was payday! double trouble! yikes... left the condo around 9pm because the car arrived only an hour plus later than agreed (also got stuck in traffic!) oh well... twas all well and good... decided to just have dinner or at least grab something to eat at Ortigas, had use-to-be-yummy shawarma rice at Strata. Then off to Naga... but wait! we got stuck in super horrendous nay outwardly CRAZY traffic! two hours just to get out of SLEX! hayyy... left Ortigas around 1030pm by the time we got out of SLEX it was already 1230... hayyy!!!!

and the trip....

...driving from Manila to Naga took less than 6 hours! hahaha... normally trip takes about 7 or so hours... well... this was non stop and generally i was going 120kph hahaha... no mishaps and near accident situations thank god! Twas my first time to drive the south route... it was fun... i suggest for those who plan to drive and visit Bicol, leave manila around midnite, travel will be a breeze sans the buses, town traffic and the life... but of course, you have to be alert and awake! =)

...by dawn we were about 20 mins away fromNaga... (see the pic) ...then from Naga non-stop to Tigaon, a rural town where we stayed at a private bed and bath/resort. After breakfast, sleeping time! hehehe...from 9am till 4pm... woke up and after late lunch, drove back to Naga and went to CWC (Camsur Watersports Complex), wakeboarding haven! it was nice... got to do water skis again after a while... i guess i still have the moves hehehe... the place is really nice, and definitely world class! It had a boardwalk, with restaurants and cabanas. There was a wedding in the pool area... so the place was a hive of activity... stayed there till 8pm

..after decided to check the nitelife of this quaint yet bustling city... Naga City is one of the oldest cities actually the second oldest city in the country... its rich culture and friendly people are definite treasures. Activity is mainly centered not in the old town but along a stretch called Magsaysay Avenue... several restos, cafes and clubs are to be found... good thing though, most of the hotspots are hotspots! (wifi-ed) ...of the utmost importance to a blogger like me... hehehe... well, didnt get to see a lot of eyecandies, prolly because Monday was a holiday in Naga (charter day) so most of the people were either out of town or somewhere... but it was fine... i got to meet some old acquaintances and friends.

...went back to the resort, around 1am. Checked the beach, last Sunday... no im red! not tan but red...as in burned! hahaha... my back hurts like crazy! ...after the beach... did some photo ops at the resort then drove back to Naga to take pics and visit some churches (atoning for sins?!) ahaha... Naga has by far one of the largest concentration of old and gimongous churches! They are a site to behold, and it was a Sunday so taking pics while mass is going on is definitely a big no no! After the required, pic pics... had dinner at Wok, a nice nice Chinese restaurant before heading back to Manila...



...left Naga around 11pm... arrived in Manila at 4:30... the road was generally okay except for the stretch of Quirino highway! dang... i didnt know such roads existed! it was as if some dinosaur stepped on it... crazy! dangerous too!!! yikes... new officials! better do something about it... hayayayay....

well im back in Manila... and my back hurts like crazy! my thought for the day... sunbathing with no sunblock with a skin like mine is really stupid! hehehe =P
