Being Alone

Sometimes I wish I could do a rewind and think what would I have done differently. I just never thought that growing older will come sooner as expected. As each day passes by, wrinkles start to become visible and hair's slowly falling, I come to realize that wonder years are over. I can't even decide whether I've reached my maturity or I'm simply just pressing on the emotions.

I look back and thought of how much time I have wasted doing nothing. Of how many people I shut down to forget the past. On how no one really knows who I am. I'm just simply counting the days that lead me to nowhere. Can it get any more boring?

I am just alone.

Starbucks!!?? No way!!

I definitely do not understand why people go ga-ga over an expensive coffee! Number one, i HATE coffee and starbucks isn't really my choice of an afternoon or nightime hang out.

Trying to rationalize why filipinos choose to spend 60% of their salary over a coffee that would just go slide out the urinary system, i figured out, that it is the status.

To hell with the money, as long as the public sees them sitting and sipping a luxurious liquid and just later on starve to death.

Earlier, I was at starbucks Sky Dome, I looked at the crowd, typicaly middle to upper middle class peeps. Maybe, things have evolved, it's the lounging and catching up with friends that makes starbucks worth the BUCKS!

In my case, i would still not spend 150 pesos over a cup of liquid to get on with the day, I only do it for friend's sake!

And besides, 150 could already amount to 3 bottles of beer!

P.S. Do we really need to eat the doughs with knife and fork?

Corporate Manipulation

Working in the top management of a corporation, I realized that success is not only tied with how much you can contribute in the company nor how extremely good looking you are (which btw is a major plus factor) but on how you manipulate the people around you.

Sometimes, you do not even realize that you are already part of the game. It's all about how you flaunt your way in. Little by little, everyone becomes a subject of your little dirty trick. The good thing, besides the fact that you get what you want, your colleagues think highly of you because they feel that you are always by their side. The question is, are you really? Or you're just trying to be to get that promotion or to grab that project wherein the decision is not within your turf.

I wonder if this all sounds unjust, i honestly think that it's a form of survival. The corporate world is a jungle, preys and predators living in the same world, you can't be in the middle, you have to choose one or manipulate the animals around you so you can be of both roles at the same time.

Penis Worship

What happens when you bring all the top executives of the company in one room? They all get bored. And when these people are bored, there's not much to talk about but sex. Let's face it, put them all together in one room with different nationalities, the only language that will be common for everyone is in fact sex.

I just found out today, that in India, they have a GOD where it's phallic symbol is the male's penis. Shiviling is what it's called.

I'm not really sure if it's a god of fertility or libido, whatever it is, it made me now realize that people who worship dicks actually have a GOD to call their own.

Brain Surgery

In a room full of the upper executives for a quarterly business review, one of our directors presented a project that she mirrored from her india counterpart.

She was asked by the Vice President if what was the success measure of the project in India?

Her answer,with full of enthusiasm and energy, "Because we are confident that the project will be successful!" followed by a grin that could even drive leprechauns away.

Our Chinese Vice President, could only open his half closed lid and said nothing and turned his head to our American Country President.

The American Country President who's well known for his sarcasm, uttered - and that fellow bloggers would find that very moment a quotable history - responded:

Pointing to one of the Senior Managers, "I am confident that I can operate your brain, would you allow me to do a brain surgery on your head?"

And the Senior Manager could only say, "NOOO!!!'

And the Business Review ends.

Presidential Election 60% of votes

At the latest, Noynoy is still leading!! THank God! No, that he is winning but because of Villar's minimal chance of winning. ANd I was scared that he'd won at first due to his sooo many political ads that even the daughter of Kris could only shout Villar's name on a political rally! I guess Pinoys have already learned their lesson of not trusting people like him. Honestly, i get annoyed everytime i see him, he looks a hell like a money grabber bitch!
