Oh My Janey

The Boring Weekend and My Foot Fetish

This weekend proved to be a challenge. I didn’t bring home Mac-Mac, my laptop, and I suddenly find myself more bored than usual. I haven’t realized how fully dependent I am on my laptop, especially when I am at home, until now. Last night, I went to bed earlier than my weekend bedtime. I am also constantly itching to go online. Good thing my sister went to Enchanted Kingdom today so I have her laptop all to myself.

It still feels different, though. I can’t do everything comfortably using my sister’s laptop since her touchpad’s much harder to control. My sister doesn’t have Photoshop installed so I can’t tweak my photos. At least I can download my movies since she has a bigger free memory here. Anyway, this weekend isn’t so bad either because I managed to get quite a few things done. I finished a book (Bob Ong’s Ang mga Kaibigan ni Mama Susan) and watched a movie from my father’s stash of pirated DVDs. I swear it usually takes me quite some time to finish either because the internet is such a great distraction.

On other news, I broke a mirror at Expressions yesterday. I had to pay for it, of course, which pisses me off. My sister gladly told anyone who would listen that I’ve been breaking stuff at stores for almost two decades. I haven’t grown up, have I?

The Year I Grew Older But Not Taller

It would be hard to compress in one post everything that happened in 2010. Too many things have happened and it would be beyond me to enumerate everything. I have so many ups and lows this year. Yet, I still feel like no matter how many bad things take place,  I can still say that this is a good year. Then again, I am also quite relieved that I’ve reached 2010 with high spirits.

With just a few hours left, I’m going to say goodbye not just to a year but also to a decade. I wouldn’t even attempt to point out the high points of the past ten years. Besides the fact that I am lazy, I also do not have the luxury of time. But this surely is one memorable year.

When I asked my boyfriend if there’s anything he doesn’t like about me, he was said that there’s really nothing he doesn’t like. I prodded even more for answers. Then he said that sometimes he’s “amused” at how gullible I am about life, how clueless and childish I am about the real world. I understand what he’s saying. I know that I can be pretty daft about the serious stuff. I am pretty immature. I was glad, though, when he said that I am changing and I am learning. He said more mushy things but the point is, I think I grew up a lot this year. After everything that has happened, it is quite impossible not to change. [Read more…]

My First Team Building

This is a super delayed post but I’ve been lazy. I also wouldn’t be bothered to be patient with my internet connection at my dorm. Anyway, my officemates and I went to Enchanted Kingdom last Saturday (Nov. 20) for a team building. Okay, it’s not the usual team building at all but it was fun! [Read more…]
