Every day I hear this acronym FOB which is labeled for Asians who migrated here…yeah I’m one of them… so what… I don’t care…. But it made me think… After staying here for more than a year now and be able to go around places… there’s nothing much that really interest me…when it comes to culture and food the best ones are the ones that originated from other countries… all American food wouldn’t amaze a foreigner’s palate I think… so what makes this place good after all? Is because of the merging of different cultures in one spot just like here in California? I remember a part of that line in THE GOOD SHEPERD when that Italian guy asked Matt Damon “you Americans what do you have?” and his only answer is “we have America and all of you are just visitors” which is true but these visitors are the one that brings life to this place… just go to down town LA, people don’t go there to see the buildings cause its ugly I think Makati looks better and more safe Ortigas too, people go there because of K town, Japanese mall, China town, clubs, and shopping…. So where am I going with these rants? Actually I have no idea…its up to you what to think… and by the way I don’t need any feed backs, cause I don’t think anyone would even bother to read this to start with…
Oh yeah! America occupied Philippines for 50 years(am I right?) it’s just I don’t remember anything that was added in our history except for the line of that Mc Arthur guy “I shall return”….
If you are reading this and you are against everything that I wrote… it’s OK….
Just make your own blog…. Peace out!

everyday question
Every time someone asks me when will I go back to the Philippines, I want to answer them…NOW!!! The only thing that is holding me back is the political situation in there. Even though the government in here is not as good I’d rather stay here for a while for the simplest reason of being safe and earn something good. As much as I miss that country it’s the stupid things people do in there that makes the situation worse.

stupid entry....
at last i have been able to cut my travel time by fifteen minutes... from 40 minutes i have been able to reach my house within 25.... but the thing is i was driving at an average of a hundred... with that i could get a ticket and i could be convicted with felony... but i'm just lucky i didn't get any ticket... though i wasn't as lucky at work.. cause i screwed up with some solutions that i have to prepare and i have to redo it tomorrow... well.. that's it... stupid eh?

sunday
since my dad doesn't take freeways i have to drive to Valencia cause they are having a small gathering with his classmates back in grade school.... i just cant believe how could they keep in touch with each other through these years... and they will have their 50th anniversary next year.... me and my dad are both into hanging out with friends but the difference between us is that i don't even bother to contact people who i haven't seen in years.... i can detach myself easily and most of the time i never try to exert some effort to have some sort of reunion... and i haven't been to any of my high school reunion... just because i don't give a damn... but seeing my dad and his friends get together and hear them talk about the good old days....they could even remember how they hate their classmate's mannerisms....and who wears shoes, bakya and who goes to school barefooted...(back in their days... shoes is a luxury....) it's just nice to see them still trying to connect with each other and just hang out.... they are all in their 60's and it think gatherings like this should be done religiously...... i bet my parents miss these kind of get together since they use to meet up with different friends twice or thrice a week with their friends in the Philippines.... sometimes they could even beat me on how often they hang out with their friends....well... its just a nice day....but the drive was soooo tiring... damn!

random utots
as i'm sitting here... typing sippin' my sapporo beer and draft sake.... enjoying a sake bomb.... i just got a great idea....
cause.. lately i've been eating a lot... just because there are nice food finds near my work... last time i went to Naan and kabob.... it's freakin great and for only 7.99 i got a whole lotta lovin' fucking rockin meal... wow.. it rhyme though it sounds cheesy....
back to my idea....
to those people who wants to loose weight fast you should try fruit and alcohol diet.... i dont know if it will work... but i'm sure it looks healthy cause of the fruits plus ur gonna enjoy it...being drunk while doing your diet is the best... i think there should be an alcohol drink that has 0% calories.... so that the calorie intake would only be coming from the fruits which makes it healthy.... hmm....
maybe just maybe.... in few weeks you will loose a whole lotta fuckin weight....
side effects... your internal organs are fucked up! and you are already an alcoholic.... nice....
good luck to those people who wants to try this diet... i wanna try this to....ciao....

need a new work?
i think i wont last in this job.... maybe few months..... i really dont know.... this is just not right.... my job title is lab technician... i got the degree... and some MS units... and i will be put as a lab tech... it's okay if they are paying me like 20 bucks per hour... but that's not the case.... and i talked to my manager... cause i'm doing an analyst job.... maybe for him its not a big deal... but it is for me.... and for the experience... it would be a plus... and its way too low... for me... cause i used to be a supervisor in the third world...now... i'm just planning to have my transcript evaluated so that i can have my degree qualified for the so called US standard or whatever they want to put it... it's like... wtf??? for me.... well.... i'll stick to this job as long as i haven't been able to find a better job than this...... it's just hard....

what to do with this life?
just this afternoon i dont know how and why it brought up... but it made me think.... what should i really do??? should i continue my masters here, take up some units for chem eng???... take up MBA? cause my bro in law is well paid in warner bros. which makes me think that if i want to earn big bucks i should take up some business course... how about accounting??? i know i can make it... how about arts??? should i do that just to male myself happy??? i'm a bit confused on what to do with this life.......everyday i want to do something new... i can never satisfy myself...just like what i posted earlier it's been like 2 weeks since i started with this job and i'm already bored... maybe because there's nothing new for me to learn....it's like most of the things that are being done in our section of the lab i have been able to do it or i already know whatever concept there is... i need something new... i need something to learn... i need something that would give mw new knowledge... not some crappy job like this....but i cant quit cause i need money to support myself....i dont live in philippines anymore.... i need to work to support myself any pay my share for the bills....some people think life is good here.... for me life is way better when i was living in the philppines... in there i got my own house....i got a car though its way to old....but i enjoy everyday living in my own place... here... the only thing that helps me make i trough the day is the idea of i need to earn something and i'm earning way better than my old job.. but i definitely miss PI... no doubt... classes are going to start soon... but i havent decided what to do next... maybe next year.. i'll enroll mysefl back to school.... but still i havent decided what to do with this life... oh... well... let's see...or maybe i'll just live my life back in the philippines.... i don't care if i start back from the bottom...
