work...work...work..

These past few weeks, work, for me, has become synonymous to the word depressing. For a person who looks forward to going to work everyday, this is something...alien. I dunno..There are some things that are not worth mulling about, but some issues would really hit the spot. Hard. Sometimes, I find myself thinking if all these are worth it. I cannot count the times that I find myself chasing sleep in the hopes of giving myself temporary reprieve from it all (how cliche!). Bottom line, I'm starting to feel really aggravated waking up each morning and dragging my ass to office and face the clutter on my desk.

But I guess who I certainly wouldn't mind seeing are the people in our team. Being on leave may sound really tempting, but having these people around makes me think twice about being off from work. Right now, they are the sole reason why I don't mind waking up each morning and dragging my ass to office and face the clutter on my desk. Take them out of the picture and I guess t'woul be the end for me as well. =D

5X2

My bestfriend and I watched this intresting French film at Greenbelt 1. The title says "5x2," and what got our interest is the plot that says it's a film about how couple nowadays live together. Being the hopeless romantic that I am (Jovi simply loves art films), we decided to give it a shot. Halfway through the film, though, I realized that the movie is far from being romantic. In fact, I left the cinema feeling a bit hopeless (for lack of better term), and cynical. The movie showed different scenes of flashbacks, from the present - where the couple seperated - and it worked its way to let the audience see how romantic and happy the couple was. It kind of gave me this feeling of uncertainty about my of own lovelife (or the lack of it - haha!). Anyways, after the movie, we decided to treat ourselves to ice cream while contemplating about the future (how exciting!). T'was a pretty good day spent doing nothing. haha.

relaxed.

It has been a nice Saturday for me..After last week's crazy sched, I was raring to treat myself to a full body massage. The day started with, uhm, work (as usual--can't do anything about it, can ), and then off we went (my bestfriend and I) to Megamall to watch a movie. There was these free tickets that Globe Gizmo gave away, and Jovi's family got some, and I get to tag along. They actually ran old Disney movies (Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, ets) and we watched "National Treasure." T'was nice, since i wasn't able to watch the movie the first time it was shown in theaters (I'm not really a fan of those types). And then, after a light lunch, Jovi and I went to David's Day Spa. Haaayy..I felt refreshed and energized after that. Feels like I'm prepared to tackle next week's tasks! hehehe...then tomorrow we'd be off to Caylabne for an office outing. What more can I ask for? =D

Quintessentials..

I am not familiar yet with how to edit my settings on this blog..But Eric has been helping us (tenchu!). Hoepfully, I'd learn the ropes soon enough.

So...where do I start (that's always the dilemna on this kinds of stuffs. u gotta start somewhere, and you have to start real nice...=D).

Why Snorkles? This pen name goes way back in highschool. Had to think of a codename for our Christmas monito-monita then. I was trying to be really creative, and have in fact considered a few already (rainbow bright, care bears. How original! hehe!). having extinguised my creative resources (duh.), I settled for this one instead. There. No deeper meaning, no inspirations, or whatever. It just popped in my mind and I settled for it. And since then, whenever I have to think of a code name, I use Snorkles.

What else? I have the inclination to initially observe people from afar (yes Jovi, I don't stare that much na po) before I make a move to befriend them. Generally considered as friendly (yahooo!) and easy to get along with. I prefer reading and staying locked in my room rather than watch TV. Would rarely pass up a chance to meet up with my close friends and update each other's lives (suki na nga kme sa Starbucks sa Megastrip eh). Believe it or not, we can stay there for 4 straight hours ng kwentuhan lng (buti hindi kme pinapaalis eh we tend to occupy about 8 seats pa naman. hehe!). I am a nerd by heart, quite comfortable with conventional things, but never afraid of changes. I'm trying to quit smoking (it's harder when you know that the yosi breaks are the only time when you can actually catch your breath..parang ironic un ah). I love the beach but I actually prefer to swim in pools (go figure). I hate it when I get my fingers sticky, unless I'm prepared to entirely pass up using spoon and fork. I stay waaay too long in the office (gotta break this another nasty habit). Despite being busy at work, I still manage to have a social life (so working during weekends is a no-no, unless some dire circumstances will force our ass to work and interview). I can't leave home without my wallet, mobile phone, powder, and lighter (to hell with the rest). A lot of people consider me to be their bestfriend (but I only have one. Kaya swerte ka, Jovi!). hehehe..

so there...just the basics. I will try to update this as often as possible. I'm starting to like it, really. till next time. =P

Just trying this thing out...my bestfriend won't stop bugging me to create my own blog, and I just have to give in! Oh well...I guess there will be more to come. As I've said, I'm still on the stage of checking if I'm ready to have my thoughts read by a lot of people. hehehe..
