"The Frog B*tch"

This event happened in the not so distant past. (Approximately 3 hours ago.lol)

Calms self down.

Okay. We were seated outside, relaxing, and me enjoying my second cup of the day.


Just when I thought that my day would end nice.. (Considering our thesis defense was moved) a Frog B*itch came into sight and ruined my great view of the "CP".

At first i thought that it was just a normal customer-barista conversation like "Hi, I'm having a 10 shot, hot short soy latte" lol.. but....Nooooo.. The Frog B*tch was standing at the counter for like 3++ minutes and having a conversation with "CP" about god-knows-what!! -cracks knuckles- WTF?!? I think she was already finished ordering her drink and it was about time to go to the pick up counter and wait. But why the heck was she still standing there? arrgghh.

My mood immediately changed. I haven't had "the look" (scary/hellish) for ages. My insides were shaking. Not because of hunger or exhaustion, but of fury. I was like a rocket ship ready to take off. I'm laughing but my eyes were full of anger. (jealousy too. lol) Gosh. This girl was getting on my nerves.

She only stepped away when a new customer entered the store. Ohh thank g... oohh no.. not again. Crap. The Frog B*itch was back at the counter. Poor "CP' had to deal with a swamp monster. Sigh.

Finally, after 7 or more minutes (but it felt like hours) the Frog B*tch went out with her toad friend.

Funny, but i really felt angry. I wanted to pull her hair and throw her out to the passing cars.

--Grrr. Get off him you B*itch. You won't turn into a princess!! You'll stay like that forever!--

PS: She really looked like a frog.

Mr. Macchiato

Another day... Another cup of coffee...

Our thesis defense is drawing near. -screams- We're scheduled to meet with our thesis consultant around 9pm at my favorite Starbucks shop.


-8:30pm-

Upon entering, the barista, aka "CP", recognized me and said "Hi!". I'm not surprised if all the baristas there know me by name or by face because I go there 6 days a week. lol. So I walked and approach the counter to place my order. "CP" once again talked to me and asked if I'm having my regular drink. I nodded and said "Yes". Then he tried to remember my name but he gave up guessing after 2 tries so he called me "Mr. Macchiato". haha. What a nice name. Hey, I'm not complaining. (^_^)

Then I paid for the coffees.. Oh no no. My friend paid for our coffees (thanks!) then we went to the pick-up counter and waited for our coffee. The other barista asked me until what time are we gonna stay there. So I asked her their store hours.. etc etc. Wow I'm having a longer conversations with them. Yay! Well, it's nice making friends and acquaintances with the baristas. I have one or more in every coffee shop that I frequent.


Our consultant came minutes after 10pm... We discussed.. debugged.. discussed.. debugged... till 12mn. Yea, the store was closing. "CP" approached us and said that it was the last call for ordering drinks.

We gave up with the supposed to be finished system and decided to call it a night. On our way out, "CP" thanked us for coming and I gestured back with a smile.

Nice.

(^_^)

Unstable


This isn't a new issue for me. Moody? Unpredictable? Yes. But what's bothering me is the reason why I'm acting this way. If you haven't known me for quite a while, weird is the word that will surely enter your mind.

I usually get what I want like gadgets, money, and other needs and wants. But when I cannot have the one I'm eying for, my emotions starts to get unstable. How unstable? Ask my friend. I will start talking and asking things like some paranoid man. Ok. Add that - paranoia. I'm just very thankful that she can handle all my episodes (all... i mean a lot). Haha.

I'm so over conscious of what other people might say, see, or presume towards me. I'm not perfect but I don't want people to stare at me and think something bad.

My episodes are categorized in two: Minor and Major.

Minor episodes are the ones that will end hours later or the following day. While Major episodes can last for a week or months. Most of the time, these Major episodes are caused by a person close to me or someone I have feelings for. lol

I have this habit of daydreaming like I'm in some fantasy land where everything is perfect. Then moments later, I will realize that this would end. I wake up and another episode starts.

I know that I need to learn how to be contented with what I have and be thankful for the people who care for me. But this can be difficult because I know that there's still an empty space in my life waiting to be filled.

For now, it's just coffee and me... again.

New Blog!

Haha. This is it!

I'm just testing how this works.. I'll copy my earlier entries from my Multiply Blog later. Still have to finish working on our thesis. -dies-

(Old Post) Cereal Killer

I just finished my nightly run on the elliptical trainer. Tiring but i can feel my excess fat burning. lol.

Maybe most of you received a forwarded text message warning you to stay at home because a serial killer was spotted here in Pasig etc etc etc. Wherever i go, i can hear people discussing that topic. haha.

Okay so it was 11:47pm and i was running for more or less 20 minutes when suddenly i heard a loud noise (maybe a gunshot) outside followed by a woman screaming and dogs going nuts. I got a bit alarmed from the noises i heard and worried too because my sister was on her way home from the hotel.

Moments later, my parents went out of their bedroom and asked me if i heard something. They went straight to the room nearest the window to get a better view of the location where we heard the freaky noises. While they were inside, and me still running, a gunshot was fired again. I turned the volume of the television down and used my super hearing (duh!) to trace where the gunshot came from. But the neighborhood was silent.

Mom and dad came out from the room and sat on the sofa waiting for more strange noises. A minute after, my cell rang and saw that it was my sister calling. I jumped down hurriedly and answered it.

She said "Bumaba ka na. Malapit na ako sa gate."

And i was like "Ha? Malapit ka na? Cge cge cge."

I ran downstairs and opened the gate. After my sister got out of the cab i whispered "Bilisan mo! May sumisigaw na babae kanina!". hahaha.

My sister thought i was going insane. lol.

Mommy was still at the living room waiting for us to get back in. haha. See? I'm not the only one being paranoid. lol.

Ten minutes passed and the neighborhood seems back to normal. I hopped back the machine and started running again like nothing strange happened. haha.

(Old Post) One Quad Ristretto Hot Venti Non-Fat Caramel Macchiato Please!


*opens laptop*
*opens itunes*
*play josh songs*
...
...
...
...
...

then it hit me. it's almost 4:00am. i've been sitting in front of my laptop, making playlists and arranging songs in my iTunes without even noticing the time. maybe because my sister came home before 12mn from the usual 1:00-2:00am. haha. Or i just drank too much caramel macchiato earlier? haha. i'm sure my friend (my mom and sis too. haha) knows why. it's not unusual for me to drink 2-5 cups of coffee a day. but this one is a different case. very much different..

imagine me being so hyper without even a small hint of caffeine in my system...... scary? lol..
then add 1 cup of coffee for breakFast + 1 1/2 venti macchiato for snacks/dinner + the main ingredient, "the cp" (only few persons know the meaning. haha but i assure you, it's not coffee. lol.) = MAJOR INSOMNIA ATTACK

i've waited for two weeks... decided to accept it.. moved on. then surprise!!! lol. yeah, it comes when you least expect it. hahaha.

im trying to get it out of my head.. but i really can't. im certain that this won't work out the way i wanted it.. but i cannot contol it. arrgghh.. (sorry iF you're getting confused. i have to be very careful. lol as if) anyways... maybe i need help. i have issues. haha.

im very moody and you can see it in my eyes. i can't pretend to be happy when im not. my mood changes in a snap. one second im sad, then another sEcond i've gone crazy. haha. now doing my best not to end up wearing a straitjacket. haha.

so how can i sleep? i read a book, played roco loco, watched tv and i even spent an hour on the elliptical trainer, but im still wide awake! my body's tiRed but my mind's not. gosh.

crap... i need to wake up at 7:30am. next time i won't drink and drool. hahaha

don't think too much.. you might end up like me. haha.

*wink*
