My other self, spontaneity, manifested Friday night...
For some reason, I decided to hit the gym an hour before it closed. Yes, I was at the gym around 11pm to get myself a good workout and a detoxifying sauna bath (unfortunately, the sauna was closed for disinfecting). After about a 45-minute routine (split into a 5-minute cardio and a 40-minute upper body workout), I decided to get my ass off the equipment...had shower, got into some,uhm...well, normal clothing, and then headed to Greenbelt 3 to gucci handbags have dinner with Nicky, whom by then I didn't get to see for three months.
We were supposed to have dinner at Café Bola, but they closed few minutes before midnight...and so were the other nice restaurants. Hunger could not afford us to go some place else, so we headed to Kitchen for dinner. I didn't enjoy the food though...the crab stick omelette was too salty for my palate and the pesto too bland for Nicky's. We enjoyed pouring water from the bottle with Mint Leaves, though. Nicky took some photos...captivating indeed! =)
We set off for Coffee Bean, supposedly to get some dose of sugar and caffeine, but we were both full that time. Besides, caffeine was probably the last thing we'd take if we needed to sleep soundly for the rest of the night (this is peaceful slumber put off for the hour of daybreak...you'll know why!) Anyway, we spent like more than a couple of hours talking about Café Havana (and why I so abhor this place), and "discreetly" character-assassinating those (who we think deserve it...^^and...)passing by Coffee Bean's smoking area ( and nope...I haven't gone taking daily nicotine doses; stayed there because we'd doze off on the couches.)
It was past the witching hour when the coffee shop closed. The ever nocturnal Nicky and Marlon decided to take a walk. I could trace our paths from Greenbelt 3 to Salcedo Village for that hour of meandering. I'm amused by the fact that we had travelled that distance for this superficial purpose of locating the Fraser Place and Capones (oh, for a reason that only Nicky and I...and well...the parties involved know...ha!). We parted ways around 4:30 AM, and by the time I got home I told myself, I finally gots something to blog about. hehe!
So Nicky, feel free to provide your inputs. Blog about that collision at the Mandarin intersection, the stinky Buendia sidewalks, and the girls...hehe! =) Miss you and I'll see you soon!

Question of Relevance
Man, I really feel sick today...and I don't feel like working! I've had this weird feeling since last night when I got home. Fria, I read on your blog gucci bags that you were also feeling under the weather the previous week. I just realized that blog entries could be virtually contagious! (sneeze 2x)
Oh well, (^sabi ko nga 'yoko mag work eh, kaya) I was browsing through my email archive, when I accidentally found this write-up. I can't remember how I got it and who wrote it, but it's one nice read (just don't mind the absence of line breaks and indentions). Suddenly, I start to question again. Oh, I hate this feeling!!! I wanna go home now.
*********
When I first found myself alone again, I thought that the biggest problem I had was one of solitude. It was tough. True, I was alone in a big city but what got to me was how quiet everything was when I got home. It was just me in a big apartment and I had to get used to the idea that no one else was coming. See, thing about Americans is that you can't bother them outside of work. They like their privacy and you have to respect that. Sure, I would call up a few people here and there but once that conversation was done, there I was again, sitting in my apartment, in silence. Eventually though, I got over that. I have always been a withdrawn individual and the US is full of things to keep you company when you're alone. TV, Internet, books, etc. kept me comfortable with myself. When I moved back to the Philippines, I thought I was all set. Plenty of friends to call at a moment's notice who don't mind the opportunity to socialize. But lately I've realized that the problem with being alone is not so much the question of solitude, it is, and I've struggled to find a better word, the question of Relevance. I think people basically pair off because you just have to have that someone with whom you're relevant. That someone who needs you and you need them, someone with whom you truly share your life. Parents don't count because you've always been relevant to each other and you are aware that you have to search for more than that. Friends don't really count either because you still have your own separate lives. It's different being across someone to whom you truly matter and they matter to you as well. A poet once said that happy couples are all the same, they're quiet. It's unhappy people that make stories. It's true. When you're not happy, you do all these stupid things. You fight your parents or do drugs, you sleep around with young women, you're basically unsettled. When you're a happy couple, you just sort of disappear into the ambient happiness. The world doesn't hear from the both of you anymore as the world has lost its relevance to you as you have placed it in someone else. Ever notice how happy couples have their own world? Sure, they'll come out and visit you from time to time but never for very long, and even if there's a bunch of you sitting with them, it's everyone else who seems displaced. I guess that for me is a sign of having found Relevance. You're so happy you disappear. I see some couples in the middle of wonderful passionate relationships but, to me, it's not quite there yet for the simple reason that they're just too noisy. They disturb the universe with their grand show of romance more than they assimilate into it. So that there is for me the strangest emotion I wrestle with today. I can spend the entire night out having fun with my friends, but ultimately, I come home and it's all sort of hollow and empty. I come home and there's no Relevance, I'm not relevant. I know people say you should be a complete person by yourself, not dependent on someone else, but Relevance is not about that. To desire to be Relevant does not make you an incomplete being. But I don't really worry about it, I don't. As is, in my life, I can find company, I can find romance, I can find meaning. When you think about that, those are actually all the ingredients you need for a great life, regardless of whether or not you find someone permanent. And I have that dumb faith that I'll find it again someday. Still though, I often wish I never knew what Relevance was like. It's much easier when you don't know what you're missing.

A Very Long Blog Entry
Dahil wala halos akong entry sa Blog ko...
In a span of two weeks, three of my closest work buddies have all moved on to pursue other interests. Two of my teammates were offered better positions in their respective firms and it's a tough challenge for me to take over the market that they passionately built over the years. But, I'm happy that things go well for the Northeast Asian region (my market), and day by day we learn a lot of country specs about Japan and Korea. Twogucci bags additional team members will soon join the team.
International relocation is quite interesting because there's a whole lot to learn about the company, the clients, and the culture. It was even exciting to meet global clients and partners face to face. The other week, the team had a chance to meet with the external suppliers coming from Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines and Japan. What's more exciting is the team will set off for Japan by the second week of May to meet our relocation partners and clients in Kobe. Seeing the beauty of the Sakura in Kyoto is an added bonus.

Last Thursday, after a hearty "Farewell" lunch at Oody's Greenbelt for Mich (who's now with Standard Chartered Bank), workmates started yakking about this impending disaster to hit the metro as the clock struck 5. Honestly, some concerned workmates call to evacuate the building at least minutes before 5 was very disturbing it really affected my productivity during the afternoon. It was paranoia!!! I spent some minutes to meditate and calm myself. I felt better after. I could not explain what the feeling was minutes before 5. A work colleague had her own countdown (amusing if I think about it now), and discreetly, everyone was very mindful of every passing second. I didn't go out of the building, though. Thank God, we didn't feel the earth shake.
******
I finally saw Rivermaya's video "You'll Be Safe Here." The music deserves a just as enchanting video (very good art direction!). This band consistently showcases the imaginative genius legitimately attributed to one true artist.
******
Moony will bring the house down tonight. "Dove" is one of my all-time favorite house music. I won't be partying with fellow house music lovers, all for the love of my friends whom I'll be spending the night KTV-ing with. ~~~ Erratum: The event happens on Saturday, March 23 at Club Halo, Makati.
******
Nothing beats the feeling of an after-workout high. I had a good one at Gold's last night when only few other members were there to do some muscle twitching. Due to my work schedule, I could not attend the Yoga classes that I'd regularly attend at Arena (the gym I went to last year). Hope I could attend one next week.
******
How about some dose of 90s pop music…
Do you remember…
Chumbawamba – the famous one-hit wonder who gave us “Tubthumping,” the only lines of which I can only recall now are “Kissing the night away…Kissing the night away…” hmmm…how about some “Danny Boy…Danny Boy…Danny Boy…” hehe! I don’t even remember how their members looked like.
Aqua- cartoon animation put to life. The infectious “Barbie Girl” simply got every Little Miss Philippines contestant into dancing. Very nearly all variety shows on noontime television had their own “Barbie Girl” dance mania, I just couldn’t put up with it! But to be fair with them, well…I surely liked two of their songs. These are the just as contagious “Dr. Jones” and the not so Aqua-tic “Turn Back Time” (from the original motion picture soundtrack of “Sliding Doors.”)
Los Del Rio – I heard from a friend who said people who’d frequent public parks in the US (that was circa 1996) were most likely to dance the “Macarena” once played. Man, this was surely a craze!!!
All Saints – The all-girl British pop-act that gave us the groovy “I Know Where It’s At,” as well as the Gospel-style and vocals-rich “Never, Ever” plus the 90s house-meets-R&B remake of 70s disco diva Patti LaBelle’s chart-topper “Lady Marmalade”…When everybody else in high school was just going crazy over the Spice Girl’s bubble gum pop, chunky platforms, and color-crazy outfits, I was (on the sly) chillin’ and dancin’ out to their soulful and funky beats. 1998 was their biggest year earning them two Brit Awards. It took them about two years to come up with a sultry single. “Black Coffee” was always part of my playlist.
Spice Girls – “Girl Power” was their slogan. The girls got their biggest blow when Geri took on a solo flight just when girl power was at its height of conquering new galaxies. Well they had back-to-back number one singles and uhm…‘nuff said!
Hanson – “Mmm…bop” just reminds me of my high school MTV Hitlist addiction. The first time I saw the video I was surprised that 3 young boys were singing (they really sounded like girls). I dunno, everyone else in school seemed a fan of Hanson. I wasn’t a fan but their music to me was pleasant.
The Cranberries – Fell in love with this band when I was in 5th grade. “Zombie” and “Ode To My Family” were definitely a smash! I still remember those summer afternoons when I’d play the tunes on the piano and then some friends would sing along. Talk about those good times =)
The Cardigans – Another Scandinavian pop-rock act whose contributions to international music include the ever-popular “Love Fool” and those great tracks from their 1998 Gran Turismo album. “My Favorite Game” and “Erase and Rewind” were surely great cuts to remember them by.
Mike Luis – then was this ultimate LSS! I’d never fail to hear his song play on the radio on my every single jeepney ride. So kaka talaga!!!
<<<<@@@@>>>>@@@@<<<<@@@@>>>>@@@@<<<<@@@@>>>>
Well, I have a lot of good and bad music moments from the past. Few really good acts were Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, Smash Mouth, Oasis, Marcy Playground, Benfolds Five, Our Lady Peace, Lisa Loeb, Babyface, Sun Valley Crew, etc…and a few bad ones that I won’t mention anymore.
In a good way, my music preference has changed over the years. I surely have matured and for the past couple of years, world and chill out music have, to some degree, defined my personality – simply eclectic and laid back. =)

I'm just sleep deprived
What I really hate about the past nights is that I don't get to sleep much. I'm just so saddened by this realization of having foregone all the good benefits of sleeping soundly. Experts say that we need at least 7-8 hours of sleep at night to allow the mind and body to recuperate from intense mental and gucci bags physical activities during the day. This allows us to be more mindful and less irritable. Furthermore, it's the mind's outlet for dreaming, which surprisingly, is essential for healthy living. How I wish I have all the time in the world to (quoting the Curbside Prophet Mraz) "sleep all...sleep all day!"
Sleep deprivation has dramatically become a lifestyle. With so much to do, I can't help but stay up really late at night. I dunno, may be it's just paranoia...
