A lot of people have been asking me what it's like to have my days of singlehood numbered. And the answer is this - I honestly don't know. It still feels the same. So far I've been doing the same things that I do before. I guess I'm getting more and more excited with the big day as days pass by, but that's about it. I'm the same old Jovan they've known before. And if someone says this guy has grown and matured, chances are that person's giving you bull.

Top things I hate on the road: Part I
I've been planning to blog about this for a long time but I keep forgetting. I guess now's the time.
Scooters & Motorcycles. Knowing how to ride one doesn't necessarily make you fit to ride the road. With the influx of cheap scooters and motorcycles from China and Korea, we're slowly turning into another India. It could've been a good sign of progress, but with the mentality of jeepney drivers, these riders ride their babies like they were in a Playstation game! What's worse, they seldom wear helmets and they expect cars and other vehicles to give way when they try to squeeze in.
Politicians and their Escorts. I know you all experienced this - you're crawling along EDSA during rush hour when a pair of policemen with full lights and sirens signal you to stop to make way for a politician in his gass-guzzling SUV and his escorts in their Nissan Patrols and L300's. Now how can you expect the Metro's traffic situation to get any better if our dishonorable government officials get to cut through traffic like a hot knife though butter? Here's an idea - let the politicians drive their own vehicles without any sirens and police escorts. I'm sure the rush hour traffic will be the first thing on their agenda.
Sampaguita Vendors. If you're sampaguita vendor, do the motorists a favor and play the part of a sampaguita vendor - sell sampaguitas! How do they expect us to buy a strand with three lousy flowers and a line that goes "Bilhin niyo na po ito ng makauwi na ako." What the hell?! They're more like sampaguita beggars than vendors! I think people in sales should lecture them on doing effective sales pitches. Care to volunteer, Jules?
Buses. I don't know if you've noticed but these buses are rarely full. There are too many of them and they occupy a lot of space on our streets. We now have the MRT on a build-operate-transfer scheme. How about following the same business model and just get one company to operate the buses on major thoroughfares?

On King Kone
Can I just tell you that the McDonald's King Kone radio ad sucks. Is there anyone here who heard it on air? The whole gag was so fucking lame, it's as if it was written by a grade school student. That ad was on primetime airing of a top radio station in FM when it doesn't even deserve to be aired on AM!
And if you're still curious and want to try it out, I suggest you save your money for something else. You'd be disappointed. It's just a sundae on a belgian cone with a wafer stick. What's worse is those belgian cones they serve at the SM Scooping Station are way bigger. It's such a big rip-off, they should call it the Prince Kone or the Donkey Kone!

Wow! Haven't really seriously blogged in a long while. (Hmmmm. Parang you heard this one before from her?) I've been too busy or stressed at work to type anything. And with the phone line in my room cut, my online presence is limited to the office.
So what's up with me? My ****. Hehehehehe!
I bought na my wedding shoes, socks and kamisachino in Glorietta after our meeting with a game supplier in Makati. Ain't that cool or what? I was actually thinking about that cool pair Cole-Haan with Nike Air soles, but it fucking costs P12,000! Shit naman!
Wedding invitations are being finalized na with the nice guy at AdWorks, I'm doing the misalette, and Mira and Peaches are helping out with the designs for the fans for the church.
I get to see the Jars of Clay concert knowing only three songs. If there was a silver lining in Charo's purple finger incident (ask her na lang what happened), it's got to be that I didn't get to watch the cheesy on-stage proposal. After Lit Onrubia, you guys better think of something other than proposing on stage in a concert in the front of thousands of people. Do something like that guy who made his in Palawan.
O sige. Hanggang dito muna at medyo may amats ako from the two mugs of San Mig Light draft I had.
Cheers!

Developer 2: No, but I did get to see Jads of Clay!
