Life Snippets Filled With My Worthless Two Cents

Not much happening with my life aside from being inspired to write a story. News and life, however, are taking more interest lately. Here are my observations (rude comments is what it is really :).

Woman With A Beard - It was a goatee, actually. At least she's attune with the times and not touring with a road circus. Way to go sister.

Asian Fluke - An Asian guy threatens a person while on his cell. His expletives were so unnatural of the culture we've settled back east, so, obviously he is corrupted by watching way too many Hollywood gangster movies. He goes, "I will facking burn your house", "I will facking punch you", "I will facking, fack you...ya facking understand?", on and on and on...Thing is I would be scarily convinced of his threat if he carried this conversation on a dark, decrepit and foul-smelling background; and not some tapioca place with bright colors while he sipped in between his passion fruit milk tea and joined by two non-threatening looking friends (small guy and a girl). Seriously, that's not a posse, it's a desperate call for attention.

Living Giant Squid - The mysticism is finally over. A camera is all it took to debunk the fear instilled in ancient nautical hearts. I think it is safe to say the squid more than likely feared us. What nutrients can come from ships when all it craves for is a shrimp cocktail. A torn tentacle is the souvenir the fisherman got from the bait struggle. Now that's one valuable calamari plate.

Brave Granny - Lola confronted would be robbers from the house and scared them shit away. They almost got in the house thinking nobody's home. Lola found one on the door and screamed at them. That's all it took and four of them fled. Police detained the robbers later when they spotted four men walking on the street wearing all black clothes and a hood, in broad daylight. Seriously, are they even trying to be inconspicuous? They're just waiting to be booked.

The Zellweger Factor - Dating musicians and creating a false notion that you can just settle down and have a family with them while their career is at its peak. It just doesn't happen.

Yahoo Messenger With Voice - I heard my aunt's voice in Davao again after five years. That's how I know how much I missed her. All it took was inserting the microphone jack on my computer. This New Y! Msgr is such a technology miracle. Wait, didn't they have this one before, it was called something else. I think it was called Yahoo Messenger with an audio feature. Just insert mic connection and voila!

Almost Mishaps - Twice I went to one-way streets. Twice I was lucky not to meet vehicles head-on. Twice no police cars caught my mistake. On one I got a strange look and the other one I got glaring stares and needless honking. I guess I was exhausted, I deserved that. Thankfully, you drivers don't know me, so there.
