cctv

 

Ok pala ang may CCTV cameras ah! That’s my car in screen 6. screen 8’s the street.

Actually, they recently installed CCTV cameras across the factory/house. We live in the second floor and the factory is at the back. Factory’s not ours but they linked up the cameras to our tv. Haha kinda fun to look at it every now and then.

On a different note, my brother is getting married too?! Well, he’s going to propose tomorrow, and then on Saturday, he flies off to Chicago for three months. He said not to congratulate him first, kasi hindi pa daw nag – oo. Haha

impeachment

Whenever I get the chance, and when the “show” is exciting, I watch the Corona Impeachment Trial on TV. Last night was delightful and fun to watch. Jinggoy showboating and getting angry with the very nervous PSBank manager about a document because the manager couldn’t answer the senator’s question. As it turns out, this is funny, no wonder the manager was so confused and couldn’t answer directly because Jinggoy was talking about a different document from what the manager was holding! Funny!! After mag showboat ng senador, nag backdown siya agad right after when they realized he was talking about a different document from what the manager was actually holding! hahaha

Unfortunately, my daily dose of entertainment ended early today as it was Valentine’s day as well as Enrile’s 88th birthday! Can you believe it? 88 and still sharp as hell.

random thoughts

I was asked, or let me rephrase that, I was forced to write an article for our department’s upcoming newsletter about a recent training that I joined. It was the OnTrac certification program that I opted to join, which kept me very busy for two weeks. I didn’t realize that writing a simple article would take up so much of my time today! I kept rereading that article and it sounded so… boring and confusing. Unfortunately. I have no idea how to fix it and deadline’s just around the corner.

Anyway, what I really wanted to write about was our experience last Saturday at Trinoma. After a long time, I finally got to watch a movie in a cinema once again! And I did not expect that a movie would now cost me 170 pesos (perhaps I should get back to downloading again). Anyway, we ended up watching The Girl with The Dragon Tattoo.

I’ve been wanting to watch this movie because for one, I’ve heard great things about the movie itself, and second, I am a fan of Stieg Larsson Millenium series. To be honest, I haven’t read The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, but I did get to read the second book of the series which is The Girl Who Played Fire, and I loved it! I was so intrigued by Lisbeth.

You might be wondering how I ended up reading book 2 over book 1. Well, at the time I was in Canada and I wanted to read the series so I ended up borrowing the book from my aunt, but someone borrowed book 1 so she offered book #2. She said it would still make sense even if I didn’t read book 1, and so I read it and loved it. Unfortunately, I was due back to Manila, thus was not able to get to reading book 1 again.

Anyway, going back to the movie… I really liked how Rooney Mara portrayed Lisbeth. It was exactly how I imagined her to be! And as usual, David Fincher created another masterpiece.

Although the movie was great, the night ended somber for the three of us as I lost my parking ticket, and worst of all, Vicky lost her cellphone. Two losses in one night. What a sad way to end the night.

But as sad as it was that night, the next day brought us good news. Someone in Trinoma found Vicky’s phone and returned it to us! What a blessing! Just goes to show that there still are surprises out there, and that honest people still exist!

Meeting with Vanessa

I have a meeting setup with Vanessa, a financial adviser, tomorrow. This prompted me to recheck my finances for the past year. Since I’ve met with Vanessa a year ago, I’ve started logging my income/expenses for the past year so that there’s something we can look back at after a year. And I just realized I’ve wasted a ton of money the past year alone. Ugh, let’s see what Vanessa tells me tomorrow.
