New Year's Day

Just few months ago I'm counting the days until Christmas, now it's over and we're looking forward to New Year's day. 

I rendered a 30 minute overtime before my rest day. I went home with a Christmas bag of goodies from the office for Noche Buena. I boughts ingredients for fruit salad and waited in line for almost an hour to get a cab home. Last minute shopping was never a good idea especially if you haven't slept yet. I still have colds so my taste buds aren't working as well as my sense of smell. Not good because it's Christmas eve and I hate feeling sick. 

We opened our presents a week before Christmas so there's really nothing more to get excited about. Our elder brother paid us a visit today and brought some goodies. 

We checked out the this new store at the Atrium later called The Soap Factory where we saw yummy looking soaps good for gifts. I thought I'll buy some for my friends but you it's made to order I have to come back after 30 minutes. The soap artist told me that they need to come up with designs and that they don't have a catalogue. They pretty much create whatever comes to mind. They also need time to bake it. I hope someday they sell something handy.

It's a rainy Friday morning. According to the morning news that an Anti-Charter Change rally is happening today and that Ayala Avenue will be closed at 12 noon. Good thing I'm on night shift so I don't have to worry about that I'm pretty sure by the time I get off to work the rally is over. My sister have shift today she texted me that protesters are starting to arrive at the Ninoy Aquino statue fronting Insular life where ABS-CBN's crew is ready to do a coverage of the event. 

I finished downloading Twilight last night I watched it right away. I liked the plot and the casting was good. It makes me think what if vampires are still around will that scare me or willl that be cool? The ladies fell for Edward Collins because of his mysterious character perhaps. My copy is not very clear yet it's too early to find a good one since the movie is quite new. I don't have anymore complains with my Internet provider because so far I'm satisfied that I am able to downloaded with no data limit. I'm happy that I've seen all the movies I missed these years. If technology lets you do everything better take advantage. 

Our regularization paper was given to us Tuesday morning I'm happy to stay but still uncertain about what the future holds for me in this company. 

Browsing and Stuff

The death of Starstruck Season 3 winner Marky Cielo (starstruck season 3 winner) was a shock to me. I saw a video clip of his untimely death earlier from Inquirer.net. I'm not sure if he committed suicide or he died in his sleep. While still looking for answers my attention diverted to this short film by an Australian cartoonist/animator Darcy Prendergast entitled "Off the Rails." It's about 3 weird guys on a train who each have stories to tell. 

If you're into indie/experimental/off the edge stuff I'm sure you're gonna love his work.
