Where Colors Don't Go
8.17.2006

I'm still here, still standing hopelessly
As I watch the hovering dark clouds cast shadows directly at me
And help is coming one day late
The glow of the moon will keep me safe.

Atypical Monochromatism, Or At Least Heading That Way
8.15.2006

My eyes! Poor little things. I've been staring at the color wheel for hours trying to get more color schemes for a template I've been working on.
The idea was to have bright colors stand out against a dark gray background, but my boss wanted to scrap the gray idea and replace it with something else. So now I'm toying with outrageous color schemes like lime green on dark violet. I hate it!
And I'm beginning to see spots.
I'm taking a break.

OMG Moment:
was casually reading comments wingspread when suddenly a large photo of a naked model appeared, occupying at least half of my screen. Nakow! Alt-Tab!

A Little Bit Of Rain
8.14.2006

I think of you when it rains.
I went down our building and realized I forgot my umbrella.
The rain was calling my name.
I stepped out of the shade and let the cold droplets greet my skin.
I ran like a litle child, jumping on puddles and occasionally glancing at the sky while playing a Belle and Sebastian track.
I don't mind getting wet once in a while.
Once I hit the dry land, I'll be looking back and smiling. But for now, I'm enjoying this little fall of rain.

Three Blocks In Five Minutes

Trying NOT to be late again. Had plenty of time actually when realized had left valid IDs that were asked by our HR department. So when I got back to the station it was already 11:30.
Got off at Ortigas around 11:53. Ran (literally) the first two blocks then had to catch breath so switched to brisk walking.
I clocked in at exactly 12:00:59.
Moral lesson of the story: Never ever stay up late just to see what would happen to LJ thread after it exceeds 50.

Show Him The Ruby Slippers

I wanna jump up and down.
Run down the hallway screaming until my lungs give out.
Fling myself off a building just for the heck of it. Well, not really. Maybe if I had a parachute. Or dozens of balloons.
I was wearing that stupid grin all over my face.
1. I got the job. I start on monday.
2. Peewee's back. And we're good.
Scream, run, jump with me, will you?

Bulletproof Hearts
|
| |
|
I don't know how I did it.
Every tangent that leads to you are now missing. Even the ones I had trouble cutting.
I haven't realized the new sky I sketched as the weeks crawled by. It no longer speaks of the heartless rain and the storm that swept our feelings away.
This is not ecstasy. Not even relief.
This arrow is not even directed at you.
We're both bulletproof now. Just like we've always wanted.
It was nice meeting you.

Tokyo Sends Love

Just got back from MOA with noble_scarlet. Ate lunch at Pupung's then some sugar at Tokyo Cafe, my new love. Milkshake topped with crushed oreo and whipped cream. I'm ready to die now.
Got a confirmation call on our way home re: web designer application. I have an interview tomorrow, 10 AM (aack, so early). Was so excited I almost dropped my phone, and also almost choked from trying not to scream. Oh Lordy.
Ken Lee is sleeping early tonight. Hope everything goes well tomorrow.

Skywriting
8.01.2006

And so the computer's still not working. I soo wanna kill myself. All I did was scrub the crayola stains on my table. The scrubbing generated some shaking, which resulted to the AVR falling from above the CPU. Crashing sounds, wires unplugged. After getting everything back into place, I pushed the power button.
Nothing. I pushed again.
Still, nothing.
And that was how I killed my soulmate.
- - - - -
I had more than twelve hours sleep after that. Then went through my sister's stack of new DVDs. Spent the afternoon watching Little Manhattan, trying to block those "few incredible memories that you can't ever shake."
I've done too much sighing. I need to get out of this bed and stop staring at the sky. The skywriting has been long gone but I can still feel the magic.
- - - - -
Did a little hardware troubleshooting with the computer. After getting electrocuted twice while touching the wrong wires, I found out that I don't have to buy a new power suppy. I just need to buy a new power cord.
My soulmate's breathing again. Yay to the nth degree. And OMG I can't believe I am so geeky.
So if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna have a long make-out session with my Photoshop and my MP3s.
