I'll Course You

When I was in 4th yr high school, we were given a career test to help us decide which particular career path we should take. I was surprised with the result. My teacher said that the result show that my interests doesn't qualify with any kind of career, and I should take the exam again and focus more. It's funny that I was the only one who didn't get any result in the class! The 16 Myers Briggs Type Indicator is much better than that test.

When I entered college in University of Philippines Diliman, I was originally a Computer Engineering student. But I shifted to Industrial Engineering, when I realized I have no interest with anything to do with the electrical stuff. After graduation, I applied to a famous electric company in the Philippines (see how ironic my life is), as a data analyst (more related to Industrial Engineering). But I didn't accept the offer, because I imagined that it would be boring. There came an offer to work as a software engineer (computer programmer), and in my love for computer I grabbed the opportunity.  I should have shifted to Computer Science way back. Oh well.. Welcome to life.

Water Never Moved Upward Like Life

What keeps you moving from someone you left behind?

From the bitter past you can’t let it go.

What keeps you from remembering glimpse of the memories?

You chose to carry those that don’t belong to you.

What keeps us from the regret of having a second chance?

An opportunity to make things right

A favorable scene where your worth would be clearly seen

Is there really no chance for you to look back?

Two Truths and a Lie

Among these groups of three sentences, two of them are facts, the other one is a big lie.  Hmm, it’s up to you to unfold the lies between the facts about me. Ready? Here it goes.

I can tickle myself

I can interpret dreams

I can do tumbling

I have many penmanships

I like receiving calls

I like receiving letters

I can’t whistle

I can write well on both hands

I have spent a day doing nothing waiting for someone’s text

I do not know how to ride a bicycle

I have a gap between my two front teeth when I was a kid

I almost killed a cat intentionally when I was a kid

I don’t like the smell of guyabano

I have pooed on the floor after 20

I do smoke and drink occassionally 

Milkshake

It was years ago before the crave in you began
And years minus one before I decided to stop
The short-term attraction turned into addiction
With the help of an angel, I finally forgot your touch

Moments passed, I was gazing at the galaxies
We met again by a mere coincidence
I felt I had moved on from a crazy endeavor
But still hallucinating from time to time

But I don't want to learn anything new about you
From the day I decided not to hold back, not even once
Can't risk to get hurt, to get even, to get worse
But just savor the sweet cream aftertaste

Korean Spice

Lately, I've been craving for Korean foods. The thought of the aroma of those spicy dishes seems so enticing, that I feel I have to taste them again. Yum!

Combo Meal

I got this combo meal for only P60, affordable. Japchae is a dish with noodles called Dangmyeon flavoured with thinly-stripped vegetables. I love it when it's spicy. Gimbap is made up of seaweed wrapper served in bite-size slices similar to sushi, and the one with the spicy red paste is Tteokbokki.

Curry Rice

The curry rice is something similar to chicken curry in the Philippines, but the taste is a bit different.Oh well, I'll check out other Korean dishes next time! Annyeong!

Why The Heck Are You Still There?

This title was one of the possible results of the "Is it Time to Quit Your Job" survey I answered from a magazine. Well, I almost got this result (just less than one point). Hmmm... Is it time?

Well, in my case, it is not possible. I am under the 3-year contract with my current employer. But still there's much to learn, I'm still in my journey with my company. I am not totally happy but I can still manage to cope. Enough said.
