Leche! Yamot! Puta!

Oo, tama ang pamagat nito! Nakakaleche talaga ang buhay! Bitin na nga sa inuman, bitin pa sa gawain, bitin pa sa... lecheng buhay to o!

Pano ba naman kasi, nanggaling ako sa isang pagsasalu-salo. Tama naman na kasama ko ang iba kong mga kakoponan. Mangyari lang naman sanang tumagal-tagal pa ng ilang sandali ang gabi ano? Parang napakabata pa yata ng buwan sa langit at nagsi-uwian na ang mga tao. Di yata't parang nakaramdam na naman yata ako ng pagka aswang nitong gabi at kailangan ko nang umuwi bago pa man madapuan ng liwanag ng buwan. Hindi naman siguro ako magbabagong anyo na parang manananggal (dahil wala naman akong lana) at di rin naman ako magiging kalabasa (dahil di rin naman ako si Cinderella). Ah, basta bitin ang inuman, gusto ko pang uminom!

Pero napaisip ako (aba, at marunong pang mag-isip ang mokong...). Di kaya't gusto kong mag-iinom ng toma para tumakbo, o para makalimot kaya? Hindi. Siguro libang na libang lang naman sa mga kasama. Paminsan-minsan lang naman ako makalabas ng bahay. Sabihin na lang natin na kapos sa datong. Huwag na nating idamay ang iba pang tao. Kung tutuusin ay malaki na ako para huwag magpakulong sa bahay.

Pero, heto, para akong isang ibong mababa ang lipad. Ay, mali! Para palang ibong nakawala sa hawla, na tipong gustong lubus-lubosin ang pagkalaya sa kamay ng amo. Amo ba kamo? Epal!

Nakahinga ako ng malalim kaninang nakikipag-inuman sa mga kasamahan ko sa trabaho. Naging malaya ako sa pagpapahayag ng katauhan ko, malaya rin akong nakikipagbiruan (huwag na lang sabihin na nakipagharutan pa sa kung kani-kanino... malay ko bang masama yun, ni hindi naman nanulis ang mga kilay at nanutok ng mata ang mga tao, at wala namang nasaktan, hehehe).

Tama nang sabihin na komportable sa akin ang mga katrabaho ko. Kilala na nila ako, ang aking nakaraan, at ang gustong hinaharap (at ang iba pang ginugustong "hinaharap" ahihihihihi!). Tamang binuklat (sus naman, binuksan lang, para medyo may pormalidad kahit paano...) ko ang aking buhay sa kanila. Hindi man nila narinig ang ibang yugto sa aking nakaraan, parang lumuwang na rin ang paghinga ko at naipalabas ko na ang matagal ko nang kinikimkim. Talaga naman kay hirap ibaon ang batong nasusunog (ay parang shabu pakinggan, noh?) Sa totoo lang, kay tagal ko nang kinimkim ang katotohanang hindi ko mapapatawad ang aking ama. Tama bang tawagin ko siyang ama, nang hindi naman niya ginampanan ang kanyang katungkulan? Oo, at pinakasalan niya ang aking maalagaing ina. Pweh! Napakaliit na bagay n'on, samantalang ni halos hindi rin naman siya makita sa bahay. Lahat ng ari-arian naming pamilya ay pawang pinaghirapan ng aking ina. SIYA LANG MAG-ISA! Ang masaklap kasi dito ay ayon sa batasang pambansa, kung anong ari-arian ang nakapanglan sa (ngalan ng ginoo) SPOUSE (ngalan ng ginang), kung maghiwalay man sa kung anong dahilan, ay mahahati sa dalawa. Ang inay ko naman talaga, oo, napaka mapagtiwala. Ni hindi man lang pinag-isipan ng masama ang gago. Tuloy, hindi niya naisip na gago pala ang kanyang napangasawa, at hindi niya ginawang (ngalan ng ginang) kasal kay (ngalan ng ginoo) ang mga papeles niya. Ang batas talaga, halos wala namang pinagkaiba ang dalawa, may nalalaman pa silang palusot-lusot! Siguro sadyang ginawa nila iyon para makalusot sila ng sarili nila.

Ang hirap mabuhay. Ang hirap ding harapin ang nakaraan. Lalo na at kahit anong takbo mo mula sa nakaraan, kahit tinatangay ka na ng oras papuntang hinaharap, sadyang hahabulin ka ng iyong nakaraan.

Ayoko na. Suko na 'ko. Hindi na 'to tama.

Hindi ko mapapatawad ang gagong 'yon. Bato na kung bato, pero malaking malaki ang kanyang atraso. Ama siya at wala siyang ginawa kung hindi mambabae, maglasing, ang humithit ng bato.

Humihithit siya ng bato, at ako ngayon ay bato na. Tama na ang paghihirap. Gusto ko nang mawala. Hindi na tama ang nangyayari sa akin. Subukin ko mang patawarin siya, hindi rin naman ako pinalaki na isang plastik ng aking magalang na ina.

Sinong sasagip? Sinong bubuhay muli sa akin? May tao ba? May sasalo ba?

Alak na lang siguro. Ayos, tamang tama ang tama.

Maglalasing, magtotoma, magpapatama.

Hindi maaari. Mahirap mabuhay. Kailangan. Hindi. Ayoko na!

Nahihirapan na ako... ibababa ko na ang maskara ko. Hindi ako ang kilala niyong Francis. Hindi ako si Frankee. Hindi rin ako si Franz.

Tao lang ako. Hindi pansin ang kailangan ko, kung hindi oras mapag-isa.

Kung hindi man mapag-isa, may isa sanang sumagip sa akin. Isa lang. Ayoko ng marami.

Natural na "loner". Ibababa ko na ang aking maskara. Isa talaga akong "loner".

Matutulog, nahihimbing, magpapahinga.

Habang may buhay, habang-buhay...

New Opening

Wackow was able to look up an all-Filipino blog site. I must admit, it's still user-friendly. But not as navigable as blog drive. Maybe from time to time, I'll still update my blogdrive. But the thing is, www.i.ph is very customizable once you're familiar with the site.

It's got a lot of functions. Visitors can send messages to you thru SMS or email. Once you're a member of i.ph, you'll also have an email account. My blog there is www.franklee.i.ph/blog/franklee. My e-mail addy there is franklee@i.ph. Cute, huh? And as long as you're a member of Chikka, readers can send you a text message thru SMS. They can also link you to their friendster account. Insta-fame, right? Well, there's still the little requirement of having minimum knowledge of some HTML. Ah... what's the use of the web if you don't know how to research, right? Right.

Try it out. You won't want to miss it!

Ms. International's (Ms. Philippines) Winning Answer

Q: "what do you say to the people of the world who have typecasted Filipinos as nannies?"

A: "I take no offense on being typecasted as a nanny. But i do take offense that the educated people of the world have somehow denegrated the true sense and meaning of what a nanny is. let me tell you what she is. she is someone who gives more than she takes. She is someone you trust to look after the very people most precious to you - your child, the elderly, yourself. she is the one who has made a living out of caring and loving other people. so to those who have typecasted us as nannies, thank you. it is a testament to the loving and caring culture of the Filipino people. and for that, i am forever proud and grateful of my roots and culture.

Performance

From a strictly mathematical viewpoint it goes like this:

What makes 100%?
What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?
Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?
We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%.

How about achieving 103%?

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:

If: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

is represented as:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26,

then:

H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K

8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

and,

K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E

11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

But,

A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E

1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

And,

B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T

2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

and, look how far ass kissing will take you:

A-S-S--K-I-S-S-I-N-G

1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%

So, one can then conclude with mathematical certainty that:

While Hardwork and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, Bullshit and Ass Kissing will put you over the top!

Free Willie

Now this is what we call "crime of passion". Funny, though. You'd think a thing as embarrassing as this wouldn't get to the papers. But, hey! Lucky you! You're on the front page! Hehehe...

There was a clip that I was able to download when I was still working in an internet cafe. The guy and the girl were having a good time, you know, a little fondling here, a bit of nibbling there, that sort of stuff. They were in the kitchen and the girl was cooking something. She grabbed the sauce pan that was simmering and put it aside. Then the guy grabbed her on the shoulders, flipped her around, and kissed her like there's no tomorrow. He wrapped his arms around her waist. Her hands snaked around his neck. Both seemed transported to another dimension. They were very passionate. A kiss that consumes the soul, sucking the essence of each other's life, fulfilling their desires for each other.

He leans forward to get better reach of her mouth, wanting to feel her soul. Ther passion brings up heat! A heat so intense that the girl just... screams like she's seen a ghost! Her butt just touched the hot plate of her stove! A slap on the face and a shove on the chest, that was enough for the flame to turn into smoking embers. Heh! Good thing the girl was still wearing her jeans! Just imagine the guy screwing his girl from behind. And if his eyes come across that burned flesh, oooh~! He gives her the slip!

Important lesson: Always, always be on the right place at the right time! Especially in cases of ecstasy. Don't be caught unawares. Remember: "Out of the frying pan, and into the fire."

Violent reactions? Bite me! Then again, I think not...

Storm and Angel

Sorry, I couldn't resize the picture to minimum. I also cannot leave this entry without any comments. I had to do this picture justice!

For one, I personally cannot do what the artist did for the clouds. And the concept was so... *sigh*...

Tongue-Eating Bug Found in Fish

A gross creature which gobbles up a fish's tongue and then replaces it with its own body has been found in Britain for the first time.
The bug - which has the scientific name cymothoa exigua - was discovered inside the mouth of a red snapper bought from a London fishmonger.
The 3.5cm creature had grabbed onto the fish's tongue and slowly ate away at it until only a stub was left.
It then latched onto the stub and became the fish's "replacement tongue".

Excited
Scientists are very excited by the find.
Dr Jim Brock of the Horniman Museum in south London told Metro newspaper: "I have not seen this species in all my 13 years at the museum so it's a remarkable find."
The bugs are usually found off the coast of California, so it's possible the fish was imported to the UK.

Freaked out
But don't be too freaked out - scientists say the creature does not pose any threat to humans and only attaches itself to fish tongues.
