A quotable quote from my sister:
"Konting bato
Konting semento...
Ayos!"
My brother has gallstones daw. I don't know when the operation will be. I'll check with him later. Good thing there was no bursting or anything like that.
Because of failure to balance our resources, my officemates and I ate dinner at my house. We had some fried chicken, sisig and hotdogs. They also met Zagu, the show-off dog.

The Sunday Batangas drive was wonderful. For appetizers, we had cinnamon rolls at Cinnabon at Shell South Superhighway. The main course were two orders are inihaw pusit ( almost as big as a regular size keyboard), adobong kangkong and a big inihaw na tilapia at Lipa's Hapag Pilipino. Then we drove all the way to Batangas City for some siesta with my burnt CD's playing the best of college (and high school) music. For dinner, we had a steaming bowl of pansit guisado for only P25! Tunay na sarap.com!

"Malay mo, if we have sex, mas mag-click kami"
-- My friend Morny, who thinks he's falling in love with Mitch, a G.R.O. at Hots beerhouse in Cubao, said this wonderful quote.

I forgot to celebrate the first anniversary of my blogger last month. Sheesh! That's a year of angsting!
Belated happy birthday to ThunderGirl!
Hmmm. Mali yata. I think it should be LightningGirl.
Have you checked out MCG's new blog page? hehehe. Don't forget to vote in the poll! (I still think "both" should be a choice).
And to the cat: yes, you are a one spoiled cat.

My friend is attempting to kill herself. Just this Monday, she attempted suicide through Baygon. Yesterday, two of her officemates stopped her from jumping from the seventh floor of their office building. She's diagnosed clinically depressed.
Olive, hold on there.

Ang Pag-alis ni Madame
It came as a big shock for me as I opened my e-mail this morning. My God, our beloved Donya is leaving. I don't know until when is she staying. I don't know for what reason is she leaving. All I know is there is a drinking session in Quattro tonight.
I guess we will never see her in full glory. And someone else will have to occupy her vacant space when we transfer to 9501. But she will always be our Donya. Memories of her Wow Mali days will forever be in our memories.
Farewell, Donya. See you in the other side.

The six-hour drive is the only transition between my adventures in Baguio and my reality. That long drive serves a purpose. In that span, you slowly let go of the cool uphill ride to Mines View, the creepiness of Camp John Hay at 1:00 in the morning, the cool party people from UPM, and even the ghost stories of our neighbor in Green Valley.
My condolences to my friend, Jojo. His father passed away November 2. That was a wake up call for me. Having a parent of a close friend pass away made me realize that I'd never know when my parents will be gone for good.
I guess that's it. The water is heated up and I have to take a bath. It's back to the salt mines.

We're back from Baguio and I'm proud to say that we finished Thumbie's punishing race course for the fun category.

I'm thinking of whether or not I should go to the office today. I have to prepare for the big Baguio drive tomorrow morning and I have lots of stuff to buy.

OK.
So what am I supposed to do now?
I'm waiting.

Pamatay ang mga biyahe sa Batangas. Simula November 2 hanggang November 4, hindi bumababa sa 30 kilometers ang binibisikleta namin.
Noong November 2, nagbisikleta kami papuntang Anilao sa may Mabini para subukan sa biyahe ang bagong batalya. Pagdating namin sa may palengke, nag-agahan lang kami ng inihaw na baboy at kanin at pumidal na rin pauwi. Hindi rin biro ang 40-kilometer ride na ito.
Sunod na araw, gamit ang hardtail, bumiyahe naman kaming papuntang Cuenca dahil nabalitaang merong pakarera doon. Sixteen kilometers naming ginapang ang ahon mula bayan ng Batangas hanggang Cuenca, kaya't 15 kilometers naman na lusong pauwi. Dumaan na rin akong sementeryo't nagtirik ng kandila sa mga kamag-anak at kaibigan.
Bumiyahe kami naman kahapon papuntang Ibaan para kumain ng lomi, pero hindi namin kinuha ang maikling ruta. Mula bayan ng Batangas, ginapang namin papuntang Fortune Cement, tapos kumaliwa papuntang Taysan, dumeretso ng Rosario at saka pa nag-Ibaan. May nakita pa nga kaming grupo din ng siklistang taga-Candelaria sa Quezon na nagpapahinga sa may Rosario. Higit 60 kilometers and biyaheng ito pero sulit naman dahil sa pansit gisado.
