I'm blogging this now because, you know, I might suddenly realize tomorrow morning that I'm already dead. And that in reality, I'm actually a wondering ghost. So that all you guys would know what exactly happened to me, and probably feel sorry for the pathetic result my life ended with in the hands of a half-sleepy driver living with only a Cobra Energy Drink to keep him awake all night.

Have a good night.

PS: I SAW that image of a man posing macho with only his brief, in the conductor's wallpaper.

After watching, I went fangirling and added Alvarez Parak (protagonist) and Boy Balbon (antagonist) in facebook and continued on fangirling and spreading the video all over.

Then, the other day, Carla brought home a bottle of Pepsi: Pinas. It tasted just like the my old favorite cola, Pepsi Blue, that disappeared when I was in mid college. She put it in the fridge while we all watched TV. We were supposed to take a picture of it, and post in in her blog. But then, Drake, the 2 1/2 year old toddler at home, was screaming like crazy wanting that bottle of Pepsi: Pinas. When he got a hold of it, he was like jumping around the place dancing while drinking it. So cute! x3

Well, I’m not sure about that. Rather than being afraid, I think it’s more like a bother. I find relationships too troublesome and annoying that's why I prefer being single.

Oh and contrary to most people, it's not about the ex or a bad experience with the previous relationship. Yah, it didn't work out. I didn't find my ex such a douche to warrant him a good bad mouthing from me either. It's more of a his and her circumstances, so I don't really know what was going on with his mind. I might've hurt him, but I didn't know. And I got hurt too, but he wasn't aware. In my opinion though, it's just a difference between our beliefs and such and that I was being clingy and needing more attention that I was getting. And it just ended like that.

I don't know if it's just me, but this is how I really think. Whether people believe it or not, I don't particularly need to care, do I? Or should I?

My relationship status and whatnot. Why does it matter to people, anyway?

After that, we went to the Blog and Soul Forum which was held at Meralco Case Room inside the Asian Institute of Management in Paseo de Roxas.

To be honest, I'm not really sure what Blog and Soul Forum really is, when I got there. Achie Rochelle invited us to go and I was a bit curious of what I might find, when I go there.

So, inside the Blog and Soul forum, they discussed about the blogger's experiences, past issues, how they started and eventually gained popularity and/or credibility online, through blogging and other social media. This one's the first of it's series. They'll have different topics and forums will be held every 2 weeks, as I heard. Hey, though I seem like I do a lot of things and is totally not listening at all (from the background), I actually do listen. I'm just the type who's weak at conferences, meetings and such and that I easily get bored (hopefully, not sleepy that time, even when it's after lunch and we really ate a lot). XD

This forum, I think is a great idea, but I'm afraid, is not exactly something that I would find interest in. As you know, I've been blogging since like the ancient times, and I've been this way ever since. I don't think I've gained popularity over blogging nor I'm particularly interested in it either. And I care less of what the public may think of me or what I write, I just blog things I want to blog. I simply just want to blog for self-expression or whatever.

But this is only me, there'll probably be tons of people out there who would find this interesting so I'll share it, just in case.

Oh, btw! I finally met Ade in person, after like what? 5 years? Ahahaha!

And I've met/saw a lot of other bloggers I know too, like Adam and Benj.

PS: Images stolen from Jepoy.

I took a few shots just when I was about to leave, and took pictures with friends I often hang out with. I did not feel like crying, but I was sad.

Working in DME was the best and funnest experience I had so far. The people are fun, the work itself is fun (despite the super toxic jobs at times) and at the same time, you learn a lot.

I'll miss these people and a bunch of them that I failed to take pictures (Berwin's fault, for giving me a lot of work that I totally forgot to take pictures when they're still around the office)...

And the McDonald's across the street where I ate its food every single day for 3 whole years!

So, let's help Japan!

Now that I'm finally done with my move and my entire domain is about 96% working by now, I'm writing this open letter for your hosting company. And yes, I'm name mentioning here.

I would like to let you know how disappointed I was with your hosting. Your services has been really really bad. I've been having a lot of problems with your hosting since last year. For one, I'm often getting hacked. And I clearly do not know why. Thankfully, though the hacking did a SERIOUS amount of damage to my files, it didn't reach my databases. If not, I would've been raging in your nearly non-existing customer support and/or spamming your blogs and sites already. Aside from that, my sites were always down. And by down, I mean they do not load at all. for a number of times, for hours at random days. This has been happening since the first few months I've been hosted in your servers, but I've been very patient (and also lazy to find a new host and transfer my files, because it's a lot of work and time consuming). But in the end, I reached by limit and finally gave up. So I have decided to move on with another hosting company.

I do not care if you read or respond to this or not. I just wanted all my readers to read it to let them know that it is wise not to get hosted by your company.

Angry customer,
Euri

But after having long repeated arguments with myself that actually last a second in reality, I still choose to wake up each time. I still try hard to pull myself up the bed each morning to look at the sun out my window that doesn't really mean anything to me, feel the warm sun, get blinded by the light, and irritated by the hot weather. It's like hating vegetables, yet you still eat it because your mom says so – that sort of feeling.

I don't know why I do this. Maybe, for self-satisfaction. I probably wanted to prove to myself that I can stand on my own feet no matter how painful life can be. And you know, at the end of each day, I only end up saying one phrase over and over... Life, fuck you.

Official email:

I wasn't really expecting my short story to be included so I was really surprised. For one, LCPH is a Christian owned publishing house and my short story is, well, uhm, not so Christianly. And it isn't your typical love story either. But I meant for the story to turn out like that. Another thing is my ability to write. I used to write fan fictions and I also used to role-play, but I'm not really good at writing, except for maybe, poems. You can't really call fan fictions literary works. Though, when I submitted this, I thought it's worth a try and joining would be fun. So submitted my own short story, anyway. And I'm glad I did. :)

My dad's actual birthday is yesterday. I just didn't have time to post this, so I'm posting it now.
