WITH VIKTOR KRUM (Haha)
Parts of my conversations with a Bulgarian online friend (I don’t know if I’m allowed to mention his name):
Yoshke: You’re pure evil. But if all devils were just like you, then I would definitely buy a one-way ticket to hell.
Him: Why not a one-way ticket to Bulgaria? There’s one here.
This one, we had more than a month ago.
Yoshke: New York has the Statue of Liberty. Paris has the Eiffel Tower. What’s in Bulgaria that is well worth a visit?
Him: Aren’t I enough?
Yoshke: Well, yeah. You’re enough.

WITH A FOREVER-INNOCENT FRIEND
A simple talk with a young friend who was so unsure about how he felt for some girl.
Ken: How do you know if you’re in love?
Yoshke: I don’t think there are definite standard symptoms. You just know. That’s it. You just know. Why? Are you in love?
Ken: I don’t know.
Yoshke: You’re not in love.
Ken: What makes you so sure?
Yoshke: Cos you don’t know.

WITH MY HALF-FRENCH BROTHER
This convo I had with Josh on our way to FC Gloria’s Canteen for lunch after our French class the day before my birthday.
Josh: You already got a Kitchie Nadal album?
Yoshke: No. But I borrowed a friend’s and listened to it last night.
Josh: How was it? You liked it?
Yoshke: One big NO. I only liked a couple of tracks. The record is rubbish.
Josh: Oh, don’t be so cruel on her. You’d probably appreciate the album more if you listen to it a little longer.
Yoshke: I don’t think so. Only a couple of songs really appealed to me.
After lunch, he handed me something in a white plastic bag.

Who is Joachim Löw, you ask? He is the new German National Football Team coach. He replaced the most animated coach in the recent World Cup Jürgen Klinsmann. And why wouldn’t I want to marry this guy? My God! A very impressive 13-0 win against San Marino. Again, 13-0! One more time, 13-0! That’s a record in European history!!! Four Podolski goals, and a couple each from Klose and Schweinsteiger. Wooh! And my points in Fantasy Football League is going up, up, up! Time to celebrate. Go Euro 2008! Go Deutschland! I’m gonna have my breakfast at Schwarzwalder or Treffpunkt Jedermann (German restaurants in Makati) tomorrow!!! That is, if I wake up early.
But I am a little sad because although David Villa managed to score two goals in their Euro2008 qualifying match against Northern Ireland (the hell, of all teams, why lose to Northern Ireland?), it was still not enough to send Spain to triumph. Northern Ireland 3-2 Spain. Tsk, tsk.
And oh, congrats to Team England. Go, go, go Terry and Gerrard! And yeah, because Zenedine Zidane already retired, my top three teams are: (1) Germany, (2) Spain and (3) England. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
13-0! 13-0! 13-0! I just can’t get over it.

Guess what…. Dandarandan….
I resigned from the job… again. Might’ve mastered the art of resigning.
If you don’t enjoy what you’re doing, just quit and don’t make it hard for yourself. I shall look for another job. Nyahahaha.
[ Don't get me wrong, it's not like I'm proud of it. I just try to laugh at myself and how stupid my decisions were. ]

This song made me cry. It’s just now that I finally listened to this song attentively and I can say that at one point in my life, I felt for the persona in the song. And it fuckin’ hurt.
“…All of the things we want each other to be
We never will be…
…Then I see you standing there
Wanting more from me
And all I can do is try
Then I see you standing there
I’m all I’ll ever be
But all I can do is try…”
— Try, Nelly Furtado

We were about to go to Starbucks but we couldn’t move a bone because we were waiting for Tonet. Knowing how impatient Dohna was, I lent her my cellphone so she could text Tonet. After handing back the cellphone to me, I checked out what had happened to their little talk on my phone. Here’s the entire conversation.
Dohna: Wer na u? D2 na us at Vinzons.
Tonet: Stil along Q.Ave. U wait me there ha?
Dohna: May choice ba naman us? U bilis urself. We’r being rained at.

Haha. It’s always really fun to be with Tonet and Dohna. And oh, with KZ, too.

2. Gentle, charming guys who can drive
3. Guys who can play the violin, the piano or both.
4. Guys with gorgeous lips.
GIRLS:

Before anything else, I would like to celebrate with Cheenee because John Terry (Chelsea captain, defender, left) and Steven Gerrard (Liverpool captain, midfielder, right) were chosen as England’s captain and vice-captain respectively for the coming years. Terry and Gerrard are two of my most-loved players.
Although I am a true blue fan (Chelsea fan) I would’ve been happier if Gerrard grabbed the captaincy instead of Terry. But it really doesn’t matter that much. I love them both and they’re both great. England is my second favourite national team (next to Germany). Well, good luck. Hope they do great in Austria-Switzerland Euro 2008.

Don’t you just hate spams? Other than Bayern Munich and Chelsea newsletters (I signed up for these, so there’s no problem with these football clubs), and some Animax Channel and JobStreet updates, I also receive e-mails from strangers that I don’t even know if they’re real humans or what. I’m sure you also experience finding foreign-language mails in your inbox, or letters from people asking for help, or notifications that you have won something but would seem impossible to claim! And tonight, guess what I have just received? It’s a mail from someone telling me this, just this and nothing else:
If you start taking Penis Enlarge Patch,
the world’s attention will be drawn to your dick.
What the hell?!?

This article is by Tarra Quismundo of the Philippine Daily Inquirer published on August 7.
Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) Chair Bayani Fernando yesterday suggested that large private schools located along major roads in the metropolis turn their football fields into parking lots.
This, he pointed out, would help solve the perennial traffic problem in areas surrounding schools….
…Fernando reiterated that he was serious about asking school officials to turn their football fields into parking areas for students’ vehicles. He particularly cited the schools located near Ortigas Avenue in Mandaluyong City and on Katipunan Avenue in Quezon City — considered the busiest roads in Metro Manila during the school year….
I only have one word to say to Bayani Fernando… WHATEVER?!?

Bayern Munich visited Japan and played with some kids there. Waaaah! I had envy for dinner tonight.

More than a year ago, Icang asked me if I would ever be capable of loving another man. I was straight then. I answered Icang with this: I was never attracted to another man, I am not, but I am not saying I will never be. A few months after saying that I found myself falling for another guy. But it was only very recently that I came out. To be honest, no one in my family or in my hometown has a clue. And whenever I meet new friends, I don’t usually tell them about my sexuality until they ask me (which only happened once).
I am bisexual. And as Ma’am Almond Aguila, our Ethics professor back in college, said: it is difficult enough to understand “gay” people, and it’s even harder to understand “bisexuals.” I am aware of that little difficulty because before becoming like this, I also had the same sentiments. But if you are thinking that it is difficult to understand bisexuals, mind you, it’s even more difficult being one.
For example, from the very moment I admitted to my friends that I’m bisexual, they never ever considered me as a species capable of loving a woman again. They were blinded by the fact that now, I like guys, too. Although that is very true, that’s all they see now. They forgot that I also find Nicole of Pussycat Dolls sexy, or that I am obsessed with Nicole Kidman, and that I once said that I wanted to fuck Keira Knightley. Hell, they even forgot that I had girlfriends. All they know now is that I like Steven Gerrard and Andriy Shevchenko. And never did they ask why I like them. It’s not because they look good (but hell, they do), but because they’re great football players. Although I admit that CNN‘s Don Riddell‘s lips really take my breath away.
Another thing. And this time, I’m not only speaking for the bisexual guys but for the gay guys as well. We may (also) like men but it doesn’t mean we want to become women! I mean, come on, you know me. I’m the most chauvinistic, anti-feministic friend you (will ever) have! I love men AND I love being one. I love being a man. Never had the thought of wearing skirts or panties entered my mind. It’s like the eeeewiest thing to occur to me.
All gay and bisexual guys are not capable of having serious romantic relationships because all they want and need is sex, sex, sex. THIS IS SOOO NOT TRUE. And this is, in most cases, the reason gay guys are very afraid to come out. They don’t want to be seen as pervs. I’m not saying that no one in our group is like that. What I’m trying to point out is that NOT EVERY GAY GUY in this happy, gay world is.
Maybe what I’m really trying to say here is this: I love regardless of sex or gender. Man or woman, I don’t care. Love knows no gender (or age or race).
Whatever. Basta. I’m happy.

Anyway, I was able to catch the Queer Eye for the Straight Guy hosts at Glorietta weeks ago. But I wasn’t able to take pics. Si Lei kasi, nagmamadali

I blog for myself. This is a personal online journal of a nobody. Every person has a story. Every place brings back a memory. Every object triggers an emotion or a thought. What I blog about are these ordinary, average, little things, little happenings, little lives around me. But I have always believed that the universe is fueled by things common and little. And I hope that this blog, no matter how personal, would somehow touch, move, or inspire others the way they inspired me to blog. Even just a single person. Even just a little.
