Maldita on Top 5 Most Cutesy Guy in local showbiz

I am trying so hard not to elope from my sanity and remain calm while pretending to look smart and busy amidst the twaddle idle time that I am spending here… Yet another day to spend with nothing to do but surf, chat, surf, chat and surf, chat, surf…

Out of boredom I thought of writing something different. Since I am known as the cheesiest person in humanity, I’ll be featuring our local actors whom I think could adapt the name Adonis. I’ll try my best to judge them according to the normal standards of physical appreciation and not the principles that I am using for the past 22 years of my life.

So here’s Maldita’s Top 5 of Most Cutesy Guy in the local entertainment world. (I’ll try not to stride off in between the networks’ war)

Top 5 – Victor Basa

He was a male model for different clothes line and was discovered by a newspaper editor and eventually made his way to the limelight. He was starred as Stick in ABS-CBN youth oriented show Ur Luv and was able to become one of the housemates in PBB celebrity edition. Currently, Victor is a member of the hottest all male sexy group called Coverboys.

Sorry I MUST enter his name in this list no matter how high y’all raise your eyebrows. The body, the eyes, the hair, the lips… the.. I must stop, help me I must stop… *wink

Top 4 – John Lloyd Cruz

Started his career as one of Star Circle talents and became one of the cheesiest all male group called Coolits with Baron Geisler and Mark (forgot the last name). He eventually moved up to more serious, semi cheesy roles when he was paired with Jodi Sta. Maria, fellow Star Circle mate in a hit teen oriented show Tabing Ilog. From then on, more and more good projects are coming on his way as well as more and more awards are added on his name.

Top 3 – Dingdong Dantes

The only thorn among the roses in my list; Dingdong is one of Kapusos’ king of prime time. He started as the chicky boy next door for GMA 7’s youth oriented show called TGIS. From teeny cheesy series he soon became one of Kapusos’ pride and glory being paired to various female lead and achieving a momentous appreciation from the Filipino fans. Currently he is being paired to Marian Rivera, the newest Dyesebal depicted from Mars Ravelo’s remarkable novel.

Top 2 – Sam Milby

Sam is another PBB housemate cultivated inside the house to become an aspiring dramatic actor of the new generation. He was discovered first for Close Up commercial (remember the guy flashing his pearly white smile on screen) and that made his way to the entertainment world. He proved the Filipino fans that he is not just a cute butt guy but also a versatile actor in the making.

Top 1 - Piolo Pascual

Everyone knows everything about Piolo. Despite of the scandalous accusations about his REAL sexuality, he still claims the title as the most gorgeous male in the local show business. He won various awards and recognitions in different award giving bodies here and across the globe. No doubts on his talents and charms… all we need to qualm is his you know what…* peace *

First Day Funk…

So here I am sitting at the cubicle near the entrance door… My environment is somewhat dim and my pc isn’t the work type one. I’m abusing the fast bandwidth surfing different websites while wiggling my cheesy ass in the most uncomfortable revolving chair I have encountered since my termination in OneGCC. From time to time, I am buzzing Benny while idly picking my nose in between (joke) when the ounce of boredom reaches the infinity level… and FOR FUCK SAKE… this is just my first day.

I am not really sure how long will this endless petix time will last but nevertheless I am not really fond of doing nothing. But no matter what, I have to stick my nose here for at least a year. I have to do it for the sake of my wish list.

Yes, I have this scribbled paper sticking on my wall beside my bed to remind me of the long list of things I need to accomplish before I reach my death bed. These are stuffs that most likely I wanted myself to have not because I need it but because I dream of having it. I won’t go as far as detailing what are these stuffs because everyone will find it irrelevant and superficial. So no need to go on with that…

Anyway as a first day employee, I attended a very casual orientation. It was mostly unfussy talks about the kind of works, rules and regulations and some shitty side comments about the company. It wasn’t really scary and all… so I don’t give a damn! I just throw some situational questions and I find the answer very pleasing on my part. I don’t really expect anything super good but at least I am up to fair treatment and MONEY err career growth pala… *wink wink *

I am hoping everything went well as time flips here so I could really established myself as a career woman rather than changing office address every after 6 months. It’s not really pleasant for my resume and it’s not exactly an achievement nor idealistic at all. I never assumed that I could be a super career woman on billboards nor become the workaholic bitch (or any type of bitch). I just want a normal career life sustaining my daily life expenses. That includes my unending credit card debts due to shopping spree, pamper spree etcetera etcetera…

I’m getting bored and dizzy. So before I go as far as detailing how many eye blinks I had and how many times I yawn … I guess I have to end this entry by saying… please cross your fingers for me and wish me luck!

The Job, The Book and Me

If you find yourself aiming for something… like a big chunk of gold medal after a nerve wracking quiz extravaganza, you would at least expect it could turn out positively most specially if you really give every ounce of your power. But sometimes, in the end you’d screwed it up and find yourself in a fetus like position at the corner of your semi lit dark room while mumbling curses on yourself or maybe not…

I thought I messed it up… that bloody final interview I had last Saturday. But it turns out that it was a job well done. Why? I found myself signing the contract with the most competitive salary I could ever dream of. Not that I am getting TOO high but it could surely save me from living a frugal life… get what I mean?

So that’s it… I’m back in the writing world but it’s kinda pristine because I’ll be writing technical stuffs. The “job” wasn’t that exciting but the thought of working beside the boyfriend’s building and with Benny joining in the fun because we are practically officemate ones again are soooo good news…

Anyway, I’ll be back in the corporate world soon and will leave this bumming ass behind my storage room (I hope not to encounter him again…)

***

I was really abusing the remaining days of my jobless life. So I decided to read few good books that are resting beside my bed nurturing cobwebs and mouse shits all over. I started with this pink pocket book that I borrowed to Misch last year and was completely forgotten that I haven’t read even a single sentence on its first page.

Confessions of a Shopaholic

Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella, that’s the book. It could definitely ring a bell because this is another Too Good to pass up (according to USA Today) most especially if you are really into cheesy and humor sort of books. The whole story is all about Rebecca Bloomwood, a financial journalist who can’t control herself from buying stuffs she don’t need and find herself in great debt. Then somewhere in the middle she came across a big scoop that changes not only her love life and career but also her lifestyle.

I found the book a bit exciting to read because I have also an uncontrollable spending habit and I look forward into sharing the same ooww and aahhss with Becky. But in turns out that her case is quite alarming and I am no compared to her. She is waaayyy overboard with ALL things and I can pretty much say that she is hopeless.

Somewhere in the middle I felt irritated while reading the book. I was half decided to close it. Reading her foolishness is a total waste of time. I wish she’d be in hell when he dies but hell for her is like a big city full of shopping malls. She has all the money and credit cards in her hands but whenever she tries to go inside the mall, the door will automatically close. But half of me was still expecting that the story will get better as I read along.

Apparently, it did not!

I reached the end of it and still I couldn’t find a strong justification why I let myself read such a shitty piece of writing. Well, anyway… I can’t really come up with a good remark on this book and I am not really fond of writing book reviews (i just want to make my blog substantial as possible)… so to sum it all up… the book is totally a “thumbs down” as per my opinion…

Weekends

Last Saturday was err… what can I call that, one of the most fuckable day of my life. It’s a good thing the boyfriend was with me the whole time because if not I’ll be cracking up someone else butt. I’ve been waiting for that “call” for two straight days. See me guarding both my landline and cellphone just to have that call in the most convenient time. And guess what, just as when I decided to go out… disaster occurred.

I don’t know what went wrong. The company got messed up with the supposed schedule and I was caught up somewhere in the middle.

Yes! I held my final (phone) interview with an Indian client base in US in the middle of the traffic jam in Aurora Boulevard. Guess what happen next??? I SCREWED UP! Now goodbye opportunity… hello LOSER!

OH WELL THAT’S LIFE…

***

Sunday is supposed to be a family day but unfortunately my family day became a dog bonding day. My parents went out and attended a children’s party and I was left alone to take care of my 3 naughty dogs.

Luckily, they were all too sleepy to be naughty. So, I went on with my grogginess and dozed off the whole morning till afternoon. And then when I got tired of sleeping, I turned on our DVD and watched a good movie.

Wanted… Bank Job… Harry Potter 12345… all good movies but I smacked on the most kiddy movie… “Alvin and the Chipmunks”. It was just a spur of the moment choice because when this movie was shown in cinemas, I refused to watch it. I find their voice irritating and too… hmm… shallow.

Turns out, the first impression was right. The movie is in fact shallow yet very entertaining. Talking chipmunks eerr singing chipmunks are really fun to watch.

“Mas makulay ang mundo pag-tapos ng high school”

Beth Tamayo said this line in one of the Kapamilya show. She was lecturing her daughter how life could be easier after high school. But I can’t help but not to agree to what she said. It’s true… there are so much in life after high school. Meaning, more complicated things, serious stuffs, never ending emo moments and lots of nerve wrecking events.

Given a chance, I wanted to turned back time when I was still 16 years old. Problems are easier to deal with as well as life is easier to live with. It was the only time I can have all the privileges to commit mistakes because I can easily get away with it by saying… “bata pa ako eh!”.

Being the Campus’ bitch and the Theater Diva are the only things I have to deal every day. I don’t have money issues, job pressures, credit bills, job rejections, absurd project managers etc. But now, as time flies faster, things became more complicated and tough. But here’s the twist, you can’t give up. Even if you’re tired, you can’t let that moment passed.

Yes, indeed there are more things in life after high school. But it’s not colorful, it’s not even painless. So better cherish the moments where everything is so damn fine because it is bound to end. Maybe not now, not tomorrow but in the future.

Heto na at aalis ka na

Nailista mo na ba ang mga bilin ng tropa?

Mag trabaho ka duon at ng guminhawa ka

Para pagdating mo kami ay sagot mo na

Yung CRV mo… kanino mo iiwan?

Pwede dito sa aming bakuran

Joke lang, baka ikaw ay maniwala

Pero kung gusto mo, ikaw ang bahala

Sa totoo lang mamimiss ka ng tropa

Lalo na ang baba mong ke haba

Peace dude, ganun lang talaga

Mawawala na kasi ang joker ng tropa

Alam naming hindi ka na mapipigilan

Pero eto ang aming napag isipan

Malayo man ang iyong naliparan

Tandaan mong lagi kang me babalikan

Narito kaming iyong mga kaibigan

Hindi ka namin kakalimutan…

La Isla Maldita

Maldita on Lauren’s site (bato bato sa langit tamaan wag magalit)

I was eagerly logging in to my YM to share the good news (about a promising new job) to Benny when I received an offline message coming from Anjsh. A multiply link directing to Lauren’s Site. I was nibbling my nails while reading this nuisance online crap.

I know this is beyond my concern but I can’t stop myself from giving my opinion. The author in this entry had actually insulted the people that happen to be my friends, the people whom I give utmost respect and value and the company I regretted the most when I filed my resignation. Mga taong tinatanawan ko ng utang na loob… SO DON’T EXPECT ME TO SIT HERE AND JUST SHUT UP! *kalmado ako…

Breathe in… breathe out… count 1…2…3…

“TAE KA! Yun lang ang masasabi ko sa iyo….”

Iwebmasters might not be a perfect company (meron ba kasing perpektong company) but they are certainly the best. Why? After resigning in Iwebmasters, I was expecting I could get another job and meet another bunch of cool people( except of course for FE peeps where i met my love and sa mga kapatirans) but that dream didn’t happen. After two failed companies, I realized that there’s no place like home(iwebmasters).

I am not doing this to kiss ass. Why would I do that? Sabihin na lang nating EPAL ako at nagkataong worth naman ang pagiging epal ko kung sa dito ko rin lang naman ibubuhos. Kaya ngayon sasagarin ko na…

“Aside from the raids, this company also has lousy facilities and evern lousier administration staff members. There are cockroaches in lockers, no tissue papper in the bathrooms, rats roaming around the workstations and assholes sitting in offices and cubicles up in the 27th floor.”

Eto say ko à Ay naku… nag iisa lang ang tae sa Iweb at DEFINITELY wala sa Admin yun…

“They would hold your last paycheck although nothing about this was mentioned in your contract nor in the policy list given to you during your orientation. They would tell you that you have to wait a month (30days) to finally get your witheld salary plus the other fees they owe you(sick leave conversion, backpay and prorated 13th month etc). But when you do email them after 30 days, you will not get any reply. You can even send thousands of emails to their HR manager (Paul R.) and he would not be polite enough to give you a reply.”

Eto say ko à Tanga ka ba? Lahat naman ng company talgang 30 working days ang dapat na dumaan bago mo makuha ang backpay mo. At nagtrabaho ako sa HR din at dumadating talaga ang point na minsan ay hahaba pa sa 30 days. Hindi sya kapalpakan ng company meron kasing procedure na tinatawag at sinusunod. At isa pang katangahan, hindi naman kasi ke Paul dapat nag fofollow up nun eh… haaiizz!!!

“You would notice that their job postings in jobstreet and other sites are always prominent preciese because they are always looking for new people to hire because they receive a constant stream of resignations. And honestly, even their wages and benefits are not that impressive to tempt someone to stay with them amidst all these problems and shortcomings”.

Eto say ko à Aba’y marami kasing client ang nag aavail ng services ng iweb kaya lagi silang hiring. HANUBA!

And to end this post… possible kaya na me kaugnayan ang entry na ito http://9lauren9.multiply.com/journal/item/1/OffshoringiWebmasters_applicants_beware at eto http://laurganism.com/2007/11/14/iwebmasters-exit-interview/.

KAYO ANG HUMATOL!!!

Super BAD hair dayssss… and counting!

I know there are bad hair days for every girl but would you be worried if you are having bad hair days for a month?

Yes, yes, yes…

I don’t care how gross this post could be but hell YESS!! I am having the worst month of my life. I have oily hair, I must admit that. But I don’t know how it gone from bad to worst. Now, I look like fuckin Snape with all the grease and the oil sitting on top of my head… ARRGGHH!!!

Read this conversation I had with my mom yesterday:

Me: Mama… look at my hair… Sobrang oily. I need to do something!

Mom: Bakit hindi mo pigain yung buhok mo at kunin yung oil.. baka pwede mo ipahid sa me sakit at baka nakakagaling… *laughing

Me: DUH!

I already change my shampoo three times this month and haven’t got the result I want. I search it over the internet. According to what I read, I should use a very mild shampoo and avoid using conditioner. So now I am back to basic. I am using super gentle shampoo to clean my hair and scalp. Take note: BABY SHAMPOO… ARRRGGHH!! (again)

Yesterday, while I was at my regular window shopping habit, I saw the exact thing I am looking for; a shampoo for oily hair. Though it’s waaayy beyond my budget (because I don’t have a job) I bought it.

I hope it would work… *cross fingers

This entry is becoming useless… so must end it.. BYE!

Maldita goes… moreee Cheezy and Chicky

Wokei… Ladies and gentlemen, readers of my written craps without further adieu, let me start this shit with, fuck! I am jobless for the nth time!

Yes… yes… yes! You read it right. I am spending another jobless moments of my life though I chained myself with soooo hard labor in my previous company. No, I am not going to retell every detail of my misfortune and will just say… Oh well, that’s life. Anyway, because I am jobless and my part time freelance work is not occupying much of my time, I spent it most likely with the boyfriend of course and with some friends who I can hang out with even if I only have 2 hundred bucks in my pocket. J

But yesterday was different. I know that Sex and the City movie hype is way way way over and I hate to admit but it was just yesterday that I had actually seen the movie. I am never been a fan of Sex and the City neither watched any single episode of it. But just because I am curious and I wanted to know what’s the whole fuss all about… I sat on our couch and watched the damn movie.

sexandthecity

No… no… no, I am not gonna write every detail of the movie nor write a review but I could say that I literally clapped my hands, laughed at the movie’s punch lines and felt so good after watching it. I think it’s a great movie. It’s a chick flick but it definitely has sense… J

***

I am a whimp and a cry baby. I cried when I am sad, I cried when I am happy and I even cried when I am angry. Tear gland for me, is the most active part of my system. But with all those tears that I have wasted in the past, few of it was considered worthy. And the tears I had cried for this book is one of it.

It’s a local book and shit me… a teeny bopper, cheesy romantic novel made me whimper. Ok… Ok, the story wasn’t great but it touches my heart mainly because the character’s situation is same as mine at this point. No need to elaborate on that one but reading that cheesy, melodramatic book was definitely worth a sob.

if the shoe fits

I will end this post by copying Dina’s (the character I am talking about) line when she was asked what is love???… “Because it’s supposed to be difficult, it’s supposed to have hassles and obstacles. Love is never neat nor easy nor smooth sailing all the way. Love is about disagreement and fighting and difficulties and making up and adjusting and growing together. It’s about passion, it’s about getting hurt, it’s about laying your neck out in the line for each other. Love isn’t about lying down letting your partner steamroll you because you don’t want a fight…”

So if you want to know what happen before she said this… buy your own book! J

Ang nag-iisang PUGE!

“Nakikita mo ba ang kasayahang ito? Ito ang iniwan mo sa iweb…”

As much as I wanted not to get too emotional at this point but how can I be happy while saying goodbye to the people I have once shared laughter, tears and dreams. Though I knew this thing will definitely test how strong our friendship is, I can never calmed myself for this could be the end of the Puge.

We were like a dazzling flower that grown together under the nurture of Iweb’s admin and grounds. But just like any other plants, we already reach our fall. One by one we are slowly detaching from being together.

But this goodbye is truly desirable because we separate ways for our own personal good. So all we can do is to wiped our tears, toss our beer mugs and say good luck. Distance is a never ending battle for our friendship but I hope will never stop fighting till one time will reach the end of it.

I just want you to know that I will never stop loving you guys and I will never ever forget every single moments that I have shared with you… Always remember, tayo lang ang nag-iisang puge!
