Responsibly blogging material girl!

           As I type this, Sassy girl real name Joanna is sitting right next to me at the station.She came by for a visit and had a pressie for me - Mauna Loa chocolates. Thank you Thank you! More than anything else though I am just glad she visited coz I haven't seen her in a long time. Thank you for the visit sas! 

          Responsible blogging….what is that? What is it you can and can not write about? I have committed many mistakes where blogging is concerned but then I have committed a whole lot more where life is concerned. Like I said, I am a work in progress. I have gone back to journal writing. I used to do that a lot when I was younger. I decided to go back into it so I can write about just everything, be as bitchy as I want to be, say who is concerned and not worry that things will worsen, or that situations will be in disarray again.Started 2 weeks ago and though my journal is composed of little bits of paper for now, once I have found a good journal book, then I will re-write what I have already composed. I am sorry for pissing YOU off with my blogs. 

        So like a responsible blogger (if there is indeed rules to follow in blogging), I will only blog about general stuff or things about just me and my self-criticisms, self-effacing thoughts. I will still blog about the Philippines, Makati, the senseless stuff people in government do. I will still blog about slow fast food chains (like Jollibee emerald!!! ssssllllllooooooowwwww I tell you!) I want to write about new food places I have discovered, great movies I watched or my current favourite songs. Why would I want to do that? Because I want to remember. Blogs are a person's history. Years from now, I'd want to go through this and recall the feelings and feel stupid that I made such a big deal of it. But then I often feel stupid. hehehehe…

         Spent all of last night getting my palm treo 600 repaired. Old unit, I've had it for more than a year, since october 2005, but I don't have it in me to replace it with the newer version. What happened? The LCD screen was smashed so everytime someone texted, I could only read the right half of their message. It was as good as useless. Could not get in touch with many people because their names and numbers wouldn't show. My apologies to batchmates Rica and Anami. I could not figure out your numbers and couldn't read your message and didn't know where the bridal shower was going to be held. 

         Have you ever been attached to a material thing? If you feel bad about losing or getting depressed about a ruined object, would you be classified as a material girl right away? If the answer to that is a yes, then I am a material girl. I was devastated with what happened to my phone. Shallow I know. Big time! It is just a bloody phone. But that was a big investment for a cheap skate like me! And my life is in that phone. All my contacts for work, information about my events, clients but most importantly, messages! It is in that phone that I saved messages from my dad that I have never heard him tell me…like him addressing me as "anak" or him telling me that he loves me. It is in that phone that I saved messages when I was just starting out with Gary. Memories I treasure dearly.

          It is fixed! Thank God. The hassle though! All my plans for the evening eaten up.Planned on taking back to back classes at the gym and didn't get to do any of that. Had to go all the way to North Edsa and wait several hours to get it done. Commuting back was the sucker coz the mrt was done for the night. The bus ride back to makati was what got to me. Off to the spa for some rest and relaxation, a long overdue and must have, and then home. I was searching for an old bodyjam video and came across a cd that I haven't watched in ages. Popped it in and got teary-eyed. It was the amateur video my friend Gem, made for me on my birthday in 2005. Still the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me….still the best surprise ever, one that I still wonder if I truly deserved.For that, Thank you darling Gem. 

          I vow to be a responsible blogger henceforth. Should I falter, forgive me! I am just human with poor discernment of what gets advertised and what is just me seeking an outlet for my frustrations. I am a work in progress….. and I need a lot of work.
