April Fool's

i just enjoy celebrating this event every year.

i remembered telling a close friend  my house was burning. It was a complete [cruel] prank. 3 of my friends became accomplices just to pull this one off.

to my kid readers (kung meron man), don't try this... at all.

year 2004

While waiting for our pictures printed for AD-FOTO, we decided to give L a big thump in the chest. L was very stoic and nonresponsive kasi

*message sent...*

Mito :  PUTANGINA L! NASUSUNOG BAHAY KO!!! PUTANGINAAAAAA!!! (beside me was T, B, and R)

R texted L.

R : L!!! nasusunog bahay ni mito!

T called too.

T : L!!! nasusunog bahay ni mito!

L called me. (ang mga susunod na paguusap ay naka speaker phone)

L : potaena, asan ka?!
Mito : andito ako sa CR nakatago.
L : ano nangyari?!
Mito : sumabog yung ref ko habang naliligo ako.
L : dyan ka lang. asan sila T?! tinawagan na nila ako.
Mito : ayun sa labas ng bahay, kinakawayan ko sila. (dito palang may hint na ng panggagago at actually walang bintana ang banyo ko sa bahay)
L : ... teka punta na ako dyan!

I dropped the call. We were already [stupidly] laughing our asses off.

L called B.

L : PUTANGINA B!!! alam mo na nangyari kay Mito?! pupuntahan ko na siya ngayon.
B : oo tapos daanan mo narin yung photos na pinaprint namin.
L : ?
B : (said something in chinese)
L : (nagmura in chinese)

L called me.

L : PUTANGIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Nawala antok ko sa inyo putangina.

Mito : hinahanap ka na ni sir. project mo daw.

other pranks involved "me getting imprisoned because of jaywalking", "me impregnating some unknown person" and a simple "losing of the wallet"

A very classic case of "the boy who cried wolf".

too  bad i haven't done any this time. i wanted to pull a prank at my boss, but that means bye-bye job :D

Money = Creativity?

I've been hearing this around exhibits and fashion shows. Sadly, a lot of people are already believing this.

nila

"Kailangan gumastos ng malaki para maging maganda ang isang bagay?"

 

 

 ako

 i disagree. High budget, low budget, no budget, It still comes down to skill.

Mas bilib ako sa pinaghandaan kaysa sa pinagkagastusan.

 

 

ikaw...ano masasabi mo?

when the going gets TOUGH

mambabackstab ako :D 

Now that everything is finished, i already miss the feeling of the event, the people i've met and the attitudes that i've seen.

It just pains me to think how people can just forget jobs and run away. This event actually showed the different sides and priorities of the different volunteers and organizers. Some bit more than they could chew, some wanted the cake and ate it too, some just didn't eat anything at all. (hahaha mixed metaphors amp)

Mabuti na nga lang there are those who were willing to fill in for the jobs. 

One thing i learned about this event, to really take into consideration whether the people working are really working for the event or...working to be featured in the event.

At, sana man lang naappreciate ang work ng lahat...hindi lang ng chosen few, lalo na kung yung mga inaasahang tao pa yung mga unang nawala.

bato bato sa langit, ang tamaan...guilty!

 had a chance to talk with the designer of tenoriomanila, nakakatawa at puro shoes ang pinagusapan naming dalawa. Next week, paguusapan namin ang mga hurly burlys ng shoe industry...pati paano maging isang shoe designer :D naks

nakakagulat lang na 7-8 thousand ang price ng bawat sapatos. hindi pair yun ha, kada isang paa... hahah joke.

highlight pa dun nung nakilala ko ang executive producer ng RUNWAY PRODUCTIONS. Magkakaron tuloy ako ng chance pumunta sa PHILIPPINE FASHION WEEK. shet. (wala akong makitang picture).

First time ko magdirect ng isang [munting] fashion show. hahaha Feeling ko para akong isang bata na naglalakad sa gitna ng runway habang nakatingin sa mga ilaw. I admit, minaliit ko ang capabilities ng THR...pero after nung show, hanep! na pull-off namin ang on the spot na pag-iisip  ng concept dahil sa kanila.

try and check wynn wynn ongs super mahal at intricate jewelery designs at  Naga Jewelry. HANEP SA ALAHAS!!! 15k per piece.

and i like you to meet my new friends :D haha yabang
FIGARO at TOUGH JEANS...

want something cheesy?

 i've been dreaming about the same person for almost a week. These dreams come with an episodic theme and it's already disturbing considering the details.

Eros...damn you!

 

--

very mythological? for those who are not familiar with him, EROS is the Greek God of erotic love and desire, Roman counterpart of CUPID.

No ID, No Entry : A Blind Iterm

I haven't posted an "alam mo ba?" entry recently. Nothing was really worth sharing these past few months.

but now,

 "ALAM MO BA?"

The toot-toots (turnstills(?)) at Camp BIG FALCON is currently not working properly. The security is tighter than a nun's...buttocks.

A certain high-profile person was questioned before entering the camp. Apparently, the security personnel were not very familiar with his face hence tighter [erotic] frisking and tighter security procedures. They also asked for an identification. Unfortunately, high-profile person forgot to bring any...even a driver's license. [now i wonder how did he even got to drive to school without having one]

He became irritated [hahaha], claiming "I'm an identified person in this campus." and then demanded entry. The security, true to their jobs and wanting to become swiss guards in the future, refused the high-profile person.

They had to call administrators to rectify the claims of the high-profile person. The drama lasted at least an hour before high-profile person was allowed to enter the premises.

He was furious.

But i have to quote a certain someone in the admin for saying "He should have brought a simple ID...even the owners of the school should bring any form of identification lalo na kung hindi siya kilala sa school. He should be humbled by this incident."

Hmmm...for once I had to give kudos for the valiant efforts of the school's security.
Way to go guys! :D

CLUE? itago natin siya sa pangalan "KUYA BARYAN"

another one?

Last term, while waiting in the box office kind of a lobby, students were very angry with how the elevators were acting horribly.

 20 mins has passed when a elevator #1 became available. A girl, not wanting to wait in line, darted through the opening elevator. A security personnel then blocked her, apologizing because a certain person had to use it for an emergency meeting.

The certain person, with his companions, entered the elevator.  

Upon entering, the certain girl became mad, demanding an explanation, "Sino ba yan taong yan?! napaka-VIP naman!"

An admin person, also waiting in line, looked at her, puzzled and surprised. "Hija, Si Bro. Vic yan."

She was lucky, Bro never heard a thing.

CLUE? dyan ako walang mabibigay. Hindi kasi kilala ni admin person kung sino yung student.

Apparently, this student is not familiar with the upper echelon of the school. ALLEGEDLY, in a same incident, the same girl was walking along Duerr blurted rudely at a man walking infront of her "EXCUSE ME!" (sabay taas kilay).

The person infront of her was no less than the school's VPA, Rober+ +ang (iwas technorati). Go go go girl.

In 2007, the 'artist' Guillermo Vargas Habacuc, took
a dog from the street,
tied him to a rope in an art gallery, and starved
him to death.

Art Gone Too Far

DOG Guillermo Vargas Habacuc

For several days, the 'artist' and the visitors of
the exhibition have
watched emotionless the shameful 'masterpiece' based
on the dog's agony,
until eventually he died.

DOG Guillermo Vargas Habacuc,

DOG Guillermo Vargas Habacuc

Does it look like art to you?


DOG Guillermo Vargas Habacuc

But this is not all... the prestigious Visual Arts
Biennial of the Central
American decided that the 'installation' was
actually art, so that
Guillermo Vargas Habacuc has been invited to repeat
his cruel action for the
biennial of 2008



It takes a second to help put a stop to animal abuse


DOG Guillermo Vargas Habacuc

sign the petition to stop this asshole by going to 

SIGN THE PETITION




Until Every cage is empty.


Please spread the word.
