sharky bids

lately i find myself browsing through auction sites for some good --yet cheap-- deals. and then i found out about SHARKYBIDS and I want to try how it works. I found out some good items and if it really works, I might start purchasing and even become the top auctioneer from the Philippines :D Bidding is so easy and the website is user-friendly, I actually plan on telling my sister about this, she's one of those who stay up late to watch some items go on the last minute and then she starts bidding! :D


I will post again soon and tell you more!

friends and grey's

airplane

i have 137 friends and it makes me sad :( i was browsing through my friend's list and i didn't know where to start deleting...


i just don't want to be like one of those people who has, like, 200 friends --half of which she hasn't even met. and you call it friends list??

i mean, i don't want to miss out on the rants and ramblings of the people who matter to me posts about, and in facebook, you will be opening a feed crowded by people you don't even know, because they were on your list.

i know. i have these lists: acquaintances, bahrain friends, church family, kins and clans, formers and interests. i know i can just click on my list so their feed will be loaded on my page, BUT still ---can't i just open my homepage and see what i want to see?

and besides, you will be opening your page to those people --or i mean, I will be opening MY page to those people i haven't even met?... i know people who are judgmental, they tend to judge on others' post or comment, or page. and i'm not fond of being judged by people who haven't even met me. i don't care about what they say, i just don't want to give them the chance.

and if you are reading this... do not talk to me about my blog. it embarrasses me. seriously. there was this one time (at band camp --jk) when somebody mentioned my blog to me, and we aren't even friends. i know him and yet him talking to me about my rants here, is really not a thing i would want to stay for a chat with.

so, today i went halfway season 2 of grey's anatomy (for the 5th time i guess) it started last week when i didn't have much to do in the house. because i finished all the other things i had to. and now, i'm super bored. because i got up to eat and don't feel like going back to bed to watch again.

i took off the jalousies of the bedroom window and i saw the stars (*smiley here*) i missed them when i was in Bahrain. and i saw a distant airplane. and i was nostalgic. i thought i was back in BH and the loneliness just engulfed me, i really thought I was back in BH! because those are the kinds of plane i would see from the car on the way home. they are that far away that i had to drive around the airport, which is on a separate island, just to see them close. my friend, jonathan, would ask why. of course, he was wondering why... and i just told him i needed to check if they were okay, coz they were my link to the Philippines, they would take me back home. he just knew airplanes mean a lot to me.

so even here, in the phils., i still see planes like a vessel of hope :) i already mentioned one time that one of my friends caught me staring pensively at an airplane passing by. i'm just really wondering if the passengers inside are happy, coz they were traveling, or are going to meet someone special on their destination. or sad, because they have been taken away from their home.

so... grey's infected me. meredith said... in the absence of hope, i need to stay in bed and feel like i might die today. which brings me back to -- me being rejected!

who --in their right mind-- would apply in a call center with a hoarse voice?... of course, i didn't apply. they re-scheduled me for an interview which i didn't show up on months ago. i didn't know there was gonna be a voice/speech recognition exam. i heard my own voice on the headset --it sounded like someone was gasping for air! so it went until the interview, and i forgot to mention, i had so much use of my voice last week, it was on short supply this week. i was so confident! grrrr!

so they called me --and said "hey, guess what? you aced the exams, you got high scores on the computer simulation, and english literacy, and your typing skill's above average, but you just don't have a clear voice. sorry, try again after three months."

which got me singing --it's my first broken heart... my dreams have dimmed and ended, it's my first broken heart... i don't know how to mend it, tell me where do i start?...

what to do. send me a message and tell me what to do! don't post on my page, i WILL kill you.
