Hmmmm moment of the day
“ayoko ng mabait… ang gusto ko yung mabuti”
dammit. you got me there :P
Why I hate the night shift
1) can’t accomplish some tasks that require the assistance of departments working during normal office hours
2) your body clock is screwed
3) can’t transact in the bank. they’re still closed when you’re going home from work and when u wake up they’re already closed.
4) there’s an unholy hour that you cannot avoid feeling sleepy
5) you miss out on...
Why I love the night shift
1) rush hour won’t affect you
2) you’ll arrive fresh since the sun is down
3) less eyes on you when working
4) office is almost empty so the ambience is so relaxed
5) no meetings
6) no visitors
7) going home is a breeze since the heavy traffic is opposite the direction you’re going
8) sleep better since the house is practically empty

Haha, Change
I never thought this day would come…
I’m now interested in football (soccer in the US) and books (e-books really).
I changed.
Oh no, Lakers
I’ve noticed it for the past years but I confirmed it just now, the weakness of the Lakers is going up against teams with quick scoring point guards! Derrick Rose just minced the Laker defense in the clutch. They’ve had difficulty against Russell Westbrook, Chris Paul, Deron Williams and Aaron Brooks in the past. Please mister Kupchack get a lock down defender on that point guard spot!
Nothing endures but change

Sometimes I get so bored, I think of a zombie apocalypse
Appreciation
I haven’t blogged seriously in a long time, save for those sports blogs and movie reviews. It has been a hectic couple of months. My social life has gone down close to nil. Maybe one day I’m going to sit down and write, everything that has happened during this training.
One thing is for certain, you’ll learn to appreciate the little things in life once you’ve entered the...

The Miami Heat and 6-3-1
First of all I’d like to christen all new Miami Heat fans as Lebrons. Those who jumped ship to this team in the East after Lebron James the former King of Cleveland and now public enemy number 1 in Ohio took his talents to South Beach. With James’ defection to the Heat, his surname quickly became a noun or verb to be substituted to traitor or selfish bastard. Much like Ron’s...

Can Bill Russell's record be broken?
The great Bill Russell holds the record of most championships as a player with 11. Can anyone even match or surpass that? That record is still holding strong since 1969, the year we landed a man on the moon and the year of great muscle cars.
The retired greats don’t even come close.
Wilt Chamberlain = 2
Hakeem Olajuwon = 2
Larry Bird = 3
Magic Johnson = 5
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar = 6
