- I'm in the final stretches of my stay here in Western Visayas as the project's slowly being completed. I've actually overstaying since we (my boss and I) thought that I'll only be here for 3 months when it's already been 7 months and I will probably be here till July. Can't blame anyone of course, that just how the business goes. Besides, in my whole professional life, I've never met a contractor who has yet to make a deadline.
- My accomodations in the boarding house I'm staying at was upgraded earlier today. My pseudo Mom here transfered me to a bigger room where her son used to stay. The son's been in Manila since the Holy week and is only awaiting his papers before he travels to Korea to work.
- I may have mentioned this in a previous entry but there's certainly a lot of Koreans here. They find it cheaper to study English here in the Philippines than in other countries, plus they've lots of places to go and things to do. Everytime I see a group of Koreans walking I try to spot any look-alikes with the telenovela girls you see on TV. I'm still trying to look for Yun Jin Kim among them.
- Every blog I visited so far has written about the ongoing American Idol season. Here's mine. It's a relief that Kellie's out of the competition and only 5 remains. She may have been affected by the criticisms and has sang half-heartedly the past weeks. Chris and Kat will be the final 2 coz those 2 will complete the set of musical genres the producers of Idol want in their stable.Taylor Hicks could be the underdog pick. Whoo!
- I've watched every reality series given airtime but I always stick to watching the Amazing Race, Survivor and American Idol. I've watched snippets of The Bachelor, Bachelorette, The Apprentice, The Joe Schmoe show and the list goes on. There will be another show which will air on Star titled "The Scholar" or ... but the gist is a group of the "smartest" HS students in the US competing who will get the college scholarship to the college of their choice. My question is, if you're really that smart, doesnt the school come after you?
- It's the weekend and I just loitering around the mall, again, as is every Sunday I'm stay here. I'm just trying to spend a "cool" day at the Mall, wasting time on so-so movies while waiting for the big movies like X3 and the Da Vinci Code to be shown. Watched Eight Below and Just Friends and trying to stay away from Basic Instinct 2! You could almost hear those Alaskan Malamutes talking! Can't wait to return to Manila and continue watching "the L word" on DVD.
.... Mooooo.
