PERKS

Ah yes, i think i have upped my ante because i have a toy... a hot toy as my brother would put it. I just purchased myself a laptop thru the generosity of my mother's credit card. Laptop and credit card. I never knew they would make my life easier and never knew they would make my blanket shrink. It's so cold out there sometimes.

So as the blanket shrinks you learn to fold your feet as well... that goes the old saying.... but my very intelligent professor in college said that he never believed that saying... pag maikli ang kumot matutong mamaluktot... alas, he said you should go find your self a bigger blanket... never compromise... oo nga naman.  I think that should be it. So right now, another reality bites... i have to find a bigger blanket... a comforter if i may add...

I thank God that i had a background in TV production and theatre as well. Me working behind the cam and me working on cam as well. They never thought i could do such a thing. Well, i tell them that i loved acting. Not to the point of an acting career similar to Jolina Magdangal... but i just want to act... kahit ano pa yan... i never really limited myself to my roles... though my teacher said that my face is for drama... i've had a slew of acting stints that i really enjoyed...

Here are my lists:

old seer woman, fat wife of a professor, sexy Math teacher, taong grasa, bartender, witch, soap vendor sa bundok, prison inmate, nurse with a seedy attitude, killed nurse atop a tree, killed housewife circa 1920s, suicidal bride, swimsuit model, chismosa neighbor, raped barrio lass (this one is very unforgettable),  ghost wife of Ronaldo Valdez in a comedy sitcom (i love this comedy show that ripped off Three's a company), a fan in tears, a potion vendor etc.

and i get to play nonliving things such as rock and soil and sometimes plants though they are living things. and somehow these stints made my blanket a lot longer.

Right now, i'm cutting on beer and indulging more of myself in these coffeeshops with WIFI things. They are a wonder. Though i spend 80 pesos on some very healthy greeen tea since i'm not a fan of caffeine. on the other table is a group of young people planning a vacation to Palawan. I've been there. But i miss it. Not the vacation in Palawan. I miss Me not wanting to lengthen blankets and just thinking of the next trip with old old friends.

Hay life. Sometimes they are just so funny it makes me old.

This has been my sanctuary for four years already. It's my extension. Almost like a limb out in the open. Know that people want to express, to just chuck it out, to just be themselves even on something as artificial as blog. I am that people. So don't mind me...
