october 26 pa birthday ko
maraming salamat sa mga naka-alala
at sorry dahil hindi talaga ako nag-reply dahil mahal nga ang roaming.

anyhoo, i'm 25. ewww. i don't feel much different. i spent my special day--days actually since i was there for the weekend--in my favorite place in the world, hong kong. hehe. there's just something about that city that makes giddy! hehe. i love taking the mtr, haggling in mong kok, and eating my fave shrimp rice rolls.

nakakatawa kasi ung favorite namin na kinakainan dun kilala na kami. my parents went ahead of me to the resto nung lunch. when i arrived dun sa reception, sabi sakin nung girl, "your parents are already here," tapos i heard her talking on the intercom ng chinese tapos narinig ko "mister lim." hahahaha.

so there. i spent my natal day in disneyland. nyar. i had to kasi we brought along ate beth who used to take care of me when i was little, e first time niya sa hk, much more sa disneyland. oh well. so ayun. we spent the afternoon there then ate dinner at mcdo. yep, mas masarap ang mcdo nila dun. i lurve big n tasty. para siyang big mac na hindi. basta  their meat is jucierrr. hehe. tapos pumunta kami ng mong kok at bumili ako ng maraming gamit FOR MYSELF. oo, talagang for me lang kasi it's my day. oo, wala kayong pasalubong :p

ayun, the next day, i packed my bags, spent all my natitirang money in the esprit outlet store, at nag-train papuntang airport. syempre dahil inubos ko lahat ng money ko, nakalimutan kong mag tira ng money for dinner, e nauna ako sa parents ko dahil they took the bus. nyar. ate beth had $20hk left. so gora kami sa burger king to buy mozarella sticks and apple pie. huhu.

so ayun nagkita kami ng magulang ko sa gate. buti na lang may lounge pass ang tatay ko ng cathay. huwaw cubao. ang galing ng lounge ng cathay. buffet galore. may tv, shower, tsaka open bar pa. sinubukan ko maghanap ng guwapo, pero wala. si pappy na ang pinaka gwapo. charos. puro tanders na may mga kausap sa cellphone o di kaya nanunuod ng cnn. meron din nagbabasa ng dyaryo. corny. i guess sila lang tlaga may pera pang lounge/business class. nyehehe.

so ayun, sumakay ng eroplano pabalik. hindi pa nakaka-take-off tulog nako dahil ganun tlaga. ewan ko ba basta tuwina na lang pagsakay ko ng eroplano parang hine-hele nako. usually, nagigising nako pag may food na.

oh well.

pictures to follow.

Fri, Jun. 6th, 2008 - my dog peed on my laptop
gone emo
not exactly. paquito, my dog, peed on the bed last night while i was in my parents room. as usual, just 'cause she wasn't given any attention when she needed it, she had to resort to something drastic to catch my attention. she peed on my bed--where my laptop was.

so... my toshiba laptop, which never conked out (as in never. no viruses, etc), is now dead. it was a hand me down from my dad, but i think i had it for five years already. so basta it's old na but super reliable. so ayun. there goes my hard drive, smelling like pee. i can fry paquito for this, but i knew it na since last night. i just didn't have the courage to check if it's really dead na 'til now.

goodbye college pictures, articles, english papers, comm papers, thesis... goodbye past.

i think god is telling me something. god is enlightening me using urine. i think it really is time to move on to i dunno what and where. i want to mourn the death of my laptop, but i have bigger problems, so i'll just try to be in denial first.

argh.

Has Tom Cruise Ever Tried to Give Sanity a Bad Name?


How did Tom Cruise transform himself from struggling young actor to Scientology god? With help from the Church of Scientology's "SEC WHOLE TRACK" questionnaire, that's how. The internal church document was developed by Scientology founder and onetime science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard for use during "auditing" sessions—you know, the ones designed to identify your trapped "thetans."

The "thetans," or alien ghosts, were implanted in Earth's volcanoes 75 million years ago by the evil intergalactic ruler Xenu, until the nasty buggers escaped and invaded the bodies of each and every one of us. New recruits like Katie Holmes, or "preclears," answer the questions while hooked up to an E-meter—a crude, polygraph-like contraption—as a Church-sanctioned auditor records the subject's responses for further expensive inquiry. Radar excerpted the best of the list's 343 questions. Here's a verbatim sampling.

• Have you ever enslaved a population?

• Have you ever debased a nation's currency?

• Have you ever killed the wrong person?

• Have you ever torn out someone's tongue?

• Have you ever been a professional critic?

• Have you ever wiped out a family?

• Have you ever tried to give sanity a bad name?

• Have you ever consistently practiced sex in some unnatural fashion?

• Have you ever made a planet, or nation, radioactive?

• Have you ever made love to a dead body?

• Have you ever engaged in piracy?

• Have you ever been a pimp?

• Have you ever eaten a human body?

• Have you ever disfigured a beautiful thing?

• Have you ever exterminated a species?

• Have you ever been a professional executioner?

• Have you given robots a bad name?

• Have you ever set a booby trap?

• Have you ever failed to rescue your leader?

• Have you driven anyone insane?

• Have you ever killed the wrong person?

• Is anybody looking for you?

• Have you ever set a poor example?

• Did you come to Earth for evil purposes?

• Are you in hiding?

• Have you systematically set up mysteries?

• Have you ever made a practice of confusing people?

• Have you ever philosophized when you should have acted instead?

• Have you ever gone crazy?

• Have you ever sought to persuade someone of your insanity?

• Have you ever deserted, or betrayed, a great leader?

• Have you ever smothered a baby?

• Do you deserve to have any friends?

• Have you ever castrated anyone?

• Do you deserve to be enslaved?

• Is there any question on this list I had better not ask you again?

• Have you ever tried to make the physical universe less real?

• Have you ever zapped anyone?

• Have you ever had a body with a venereal disease? If so, did you spread it?

Wed, Jan. 16th, 2008 - RIP Brad Renfro
gone emo
my ultimate 90's crush is dead. he's only 25 years old. i used to cut out his pictures from Tiger Beat & Teen Beat. hayyy.

Troubled actor Brad Renfro dies at 25

Associated Press

LOS ANGELES - Actor Brad Renfro, whose career began promisingly with a childhood role in "The Client" but rapidly faded as he struggled with drugs and alcohol, was found dead Tuesday in his home. He was 25.

Paramedics pronounced him dead at 9 a.m., said Craig Harvey, chief investigator for the Los Angeles County coroner's office. The cause of death was not immediately determined, Harvey said, but an autopsy could be conducted as early as Wednesday.

Renfro had reportedly been drinking with friends the evening before his death, Harvey said.

Renfro's lawyer, Richard Kaplan, said he did not know whether the death was connected to any problems with addiction.

"He was working hard on his sobriety," Kaplan said. "He was doing well. He was a nice person."

Renfro recently completed a role in "The Informers," a film adaptation of a Bret Easton Ellis novel that stars Winona Ryder, Brandon Routh and Billy Bob Thornton.

"Brad was an exceptionally talented young actor and our time spent with him was thoroughly enjoyable," Marco Weber, president of the film's production house, Senator Entertainment, said in a statement.

The actor served 10 days in jail in May 2006 after pleading no contest to driving while intoxicated and guilty to attempted possession of heroin.

The latter charge stemmed from his arrest in Los Angeles' Skid Row area, when he attempted to buy heroin from an undercover officer in 2005.

For several years he was better known for that drug bust and the resulting criminal case than for acting.

After one court appearance, he talked to reporters about drug rehabilitation, saying he was "tired of paying the consequences" for drinking and drug use and eager to get clean.

"It's definitely been an eye-opener," he said of his rehabilitation program.

Other run-ins with the law included a 1998 charge of cocaine and marijuana possession, for which he avoided jail time in a plea deal. He was also placed on probation in January 2001 and ordered to pay $4,000 for repairs to a 45-foot yacht he and a friend tried to steal in Florida in August 2000.

He was arrested again in May 2001 and charged with underage drinking, violating the terms of his probation, and was ordered into alcohol rehabilitation the following March.

A native of Knoxville, Tenn., Renfro's film career began when he was 12, acting opposite Susan Sarandon and Tommy Lee Jones in "The Client." His other credits included "Sleepers," "Deuces Wild," "Apt Pupil" and "The Jacket."

Images of old|new Manila


Manila is a glaring study in contrasts. This is where the rumble of big city traffic meets the steady clip-clop of horses’ hooves. This is where nightclubs and discos sit side by side with art galleries and museums, a place where gourmet restaurants are seconds away from roadside canteens. This is where rich tradition meets modern urban living, a city where the old blends with the new in a seamless tapestry of culture. More than its landmarks, Manila has this particular quality, a certain air, a distinct flavor that makes it like no other city in the metro.
