      <description>I'm currently doing the copy for this major web rehash by one of the large local banks, and as I say in today's meeting, the project manager revealed one of life's beautiful secrets.

&quot;Under-commit and over-deliver.&quot;

The skies never parted. There were no glorious choirs of angels, no bright lights. There wasn't even coffee. But there it was, laid bare in front of me like a virgin on my bed.

&quot;Under-commit and over-deliver.&quot;

I rolled the words around my tongue. They tasted marvelous.

If I ever get the chance to teach business (that, of course, assumes that I learn the lessons of business... (more)</description>

      <description>Being the CEO of a company means you have to have control over everything. Everything. Being the CEO of your own life requires pretty much the same thing. That's where my problems begin. I've grown old wielding the philosophy that I only need to keep my focus on a handful of things. This is what keeps my life simple: I don't sweat the little stuff. And for the most part this has worked for me. I mean, I'm here, aren't I? Still alive, still kicking.
But I'm nowhere close to where I want to be, to where I know I can be. And that's precisely because I don't sweat the small stuff.
Some years... (more)</description>

      <description>Hi. I’m Gerome, and this is my story on how I realized why women think, they tend to get hurt more than men.
 
It was just like any Monday morning, hectic, frantic, and manic. It’s Monday for god’s sake, as my idol &quot;Garfield&quot; (yeah the orange cat) would say, I’m beginning to hate Mondays more and more.
 
My minds too idle, the time is soooo slow; just kept passing the time chatting with my friends Arty and Gem. The day was a bum so I decided to make the most out of it. Pulled them out, and asked them to hang out on this place called “King Phillip’s” after work. Not really a fancy place,... (more)</description>

      <description>God... has been some time since my last entry... should not be blogging right now, coz of tons of papaer work... 
But that's the point why I am so mad... freakin ready to explode... I'm here frying my ass to work while other people out there are bummin around...
I know in the long run, I will say to myself, &quot;it's a good thing you did not turn into a bum... just look at you're friend now?&quot;
Still, I can't help but despise this people, that are so lazy to work... I mean, it's not like they are not capable fo working, they have all the tools, they're built like a truck, a college degree,... (more)</description>

      <description>I have prepared for the worst, now I am not hoping for the best...
The clouds seem to darken every day that passes... The Silver lining is constantly thinning... convergent to nothing...
Yet, I had nothing to lose, and everyday, logic piles up reasons, causing me to realize that there was not much to gain...

      <description>I am wondering at this very minute
If you are thinking of me
If like me
You are wondering
What is taking us so long
To find each other
 
Many times
I thought I finally found you
Only to be disillusioned
By the fact
That my wait has not yet ended
I get up each morning hoping
dreaming
longing to meet you
 
I am thinking
Of how we will meet
Would it be as romantic
As the ones I have seen in movies
Or is it possible
That I have known you all my life
But we have yet to realize
That we are meant for each other
 
How I wish you were here right now
Because you are the only... (more)</description>

      <title>The Mystery of Fruit Cakes</title>

      <description>You have got to be kidding me if you din't know what a fruit cake is... It is as well known as Old St. Nick... well... maybe not... to the old folks, most probabaly though...
But here's the thing, have you ever heard the joke, that fruit cakes received are recycled and given out as a gift. Hah, you think that's impossible? well think again... originally, fruit cakes are eaten 25 years after they are baked... ;)
The thing is, I often see fruit cakes during X-mas, I mean most probably every home has one, or at least most families have received it... but tio this date, I have yet to find a... (more)</description>

      <description>Listen up, shonuff you have been where now Im at,
Blisterin feet, hot temper, got monkeys on my back…
The bitches TC, (haha) hilarious when I remember,
They've been itchin to whack me, way since September…

It feels good to have this kind of ethereal power,
Giving them misery, hear my name, they quickly shudder…
This is my purpose in life; this is why I breathe,
To annoy these fuckin TCs, much like a disease…

One of these bitches is constantly island hoppin,
Where does she get the greens, her dad earns 30 k sumthin…
Oh yeah, big old dad works in the cost cutting government,
Maybe that's... (more)</description>

      <description>Okay, so this is my first blog for a very long time now. It’s not that I don’t have anything to write, it’s completely the opposite. I have many things to write but I just don’t have enough time do it. So in a quick recap on what I missed to post, despidida and eventual resignation of MC, inuman sa bahay jung saan basag si yogi and vic, event ni papa nick sa bahay ng alumni, gimmick sa dreams, birthday ni brian, UAAP games, wargames, QCS RECON, biglang gimmick to tagaytay, eventual regularization sa EMCI, at madami pang iba…
 
So why did I just summarize these and not just post it as a... (more)</description>

      <description>Damn, last Saturday was exhausting for me… actually my blogs for last Saturday has two parts so just read on, I divided the events in two separate entries.
 
Well last Saturday I was supposed to go to work for a minimum of four hours, but for some god forsaken reason, I suddenly lost the urge to go to work, and decided to stay home and take care of my BABY instead… 
 
My outlook towards work has been this way for some time now… The end of my contract here in Innodata is coming fast, and of course I already have made preparations to shift career paths, although still thinking if I would... (more)</description>
