es-cap-ism
‒noun
the avoidance of reality by absorption of the mind in entertainment or in an imaginative situation, activity, etc.
It is odd to find oneself in a state where you just do not want to deal with reality. When friends become characters in a movie. When work becomes a haven for not thinking about what is real and happening. When everything else in your life, except being who you are, is no longer real.
Times like these, I end up thinking why am I where I am at now. What brought me here? Why do I have to be here? Questions that do not seem to get answered with how I am coping with things at the moment. It is these exact questions why I choose to just focus on other things instead of myself.
Watching episode after episode of Grey's Anatomy and Desperate Housewives, catching the latest feel good movie, or going out drinking pretty much all week. Activities that get me out of reality so I do not have to deal with it. It sounds pretty sad, or weird, but I find myself wondering if that is who I really am.
It just dawned on me that I am someone who would rather live a movie than be *sigh* me.

"I know all about love, and its traps. How it starts well, how mistakes are made, how in moments of confidence or unbearable pain. Things are said which can never be unsaid. How caution intervenes, and you behave like a polite friend, aching with the need to renounce that caution. If only to say intolerable things again. How those intolerable things seem to contain the essence of your knowledge of each other, of intimacy. -Anita Bookner, in "Look at Her"
"All my life, i have accepted everything because I believe in this: Everything happens for a reason. The hard part is: FINDING OUT WHAT THAT REASON IS..."

For the love of McDonalds and KFC

I go to work 5x in a week. 5x makes it totally worst for almost everything about each day. Let me start it by telling you how each of my beautiful life is being inspired by McDonalds and KFC.. inspired? oh not really.
I am working in a call center in Makati, most probably you see it everyday if you happen to pass by the Ayala Ave. It is just one of those building in the middle of that street with some fastfood chains that is located right next to each other. Well, of course for the convenience of each of the employees it is really nice knowing that we have somewhere we can go to have lunch. Sure, it's nice.. but I wish we have more choices other than the two I have already mentioned. Okay, somehow...
It is fine that you get to have coffee when you want too, since Starbucks is right next to... of course KFC. Yeah, do you like Japanese food? I don't... so I do not consider and I will never consider Tokyo Tokyo... oh.. moving forward.. let's walk a little bit on the other side of the buiding where I am working at, just when you pass by GO, of course, you will see Mcdonalds, right to it, is... Mercury drugs ( these establishment should pay me for this) ok.. so.. I and my co-workers have no choice but to have two choices... argh.. sound silly uh.. ahahaha I know.. I got you confused..
ok, but for sure you're smart enough to know exactly what I am talking about. Everymorning since, my lunch is in the morning.. which is.. come on.. only call center agents knows that even if it's morning and you take your lunch in the morning it is still considered lunch, funny thing is when I used to work at night and my lunch is at 2am, We still call it lunch.. weird... ok ok. back to what I am really talking about.. everymorning, me and my co-workers will gather to either KFC and McDonalds, I am wondering why up to now I don't have those wings growing on either on to my sides nor maybe my arms... chick chick chickeeennn... I am sure don't want to just hear myself sound like that...
ok... now, what is the point? nah.. nothing really, I was just kinda suprise that until now, I still enjoy the food, although you may vary your order, from Chicken legs, and thighs, still the same chicken.. or they have breakfast.. I remember.. the usual corned beef, and longganisa.. sure sure.. you see, the order may vary... I said it right...
argh..
to be continued

"The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science. Whoever does not know it and can no longer wonder, no longer marvel, is as good as dead, and his eyes are dimmed. It was the experience of mystery -- even if mixed with fear -- that engendered religion. A knowledge of the existence of something we cannot penetrate, our perceptions of the profoundest reason and the most radiant beauty, which only in their most primitive forms are accessible to our minds: it is this knowledge and this emotion that constitute true religiosity. In this sense, and only this sense, I am a deeply religious man... I am satisfied with the mystery of life's eternity and with a knowledge, a sense, of the marvelous structure of existence -- as well as the humble attempt to understand even a tiny portion of the Reason that manifests itself in nature."
- Albert Einstein

I.
If you ask me to stop, I will.
Please don't let me decide, it is bad
enough that I have to let you go
to her who's right for you.
II.
Be with her, choose her, just
make sure that it is her you truly
want.. because if I say GO,
I will mean GO.
III.
I will turn around looking
at what's in it for me in the future.
I will not look back,
but I will be around.
IV.
That's the exact time when
it will be most painful. Exactly
when you see my back while
I cry and suck it all in.

The beauty of being human

Have you ever experienced a time in your life you felt so empty for no reason? Have you ever felt so down but you just can't tell why? Have you ever felt like the world suddenly spins around you and you're caught in the middle going nowhere? Weird isn't it?
But that's the beauty of being human... it is knowing that there is a purpose for each existence... whatever that may be, it is also the reason why we still wake up breathing each day... to discover the missing piece of puzzle that would make our lives complete

21. It's a thankless job, but I've got a lot of Karma to burn off.
22. Yes, I am an agent of Satan, but my duties are largely ceremonial.
23. And your crybaby whiny-assed opinion would be?
24. Do I look like a f***ing people person to you?
25. This isn't an office. It's Hell with fluorescent lighting.
26. I started out with nothing & I still have most of it left.
27. Sarcasm is just one more service we offer.
28. If I throw a stick, will you leave?
29. Errors have been made. Others will be blamed.
30. Whatever kind of look you were going for, you missed.
31. Oh I get it; like humor, but different.
32. A cubicle is just a padded cell without a door.
33. Can I trade this job for what's behind door #1?
34. Too many freaks, not enough circuses.
35. Nice perfume. Must you really marinate in it?
36. Chaos, panic, and disorder. My work here is finally done.
37. How do I set a laser printer to stun?
38. I thought I wanted a career; turns out I just wanted a salary.
39. I'll try being nicer if you'll try being smarter.
40. Wait a minute --- I'm trying to imagine you with a personality.
