Chop it off!

Finally! After doing a lot of research about short hairstyles, I finally chopped it off! :) I was thinking of going to Tony and Guy, Alfons Salon, or Rogers Salon to have it done so I made few phone calls and inquire about the prices. They don't differ much, a bit pricey for my standards. Yes, I told myself that if I'm gonna have a short haircut, I better have it done in a nice salon coz it's a risk. I never had my hair cut this short after 10 years?! Yeah. So here are the before and after pictures.


Kinda feel guilty though coz usually I go to Johnny Andrean (Rp50ish ribu = P250) or Aura Salon (courtesy of my aunt) for my haircut. Well, I only have my haircut twice a year.

I decided to go to Rogers Salon and asked for their top stylist, Jaka to have my hair done. The salon is nice. Really nice! There's a pond inside the salon. :) Haha! I "cut" work for an hour since boss is not here. hush hush! My friend suggested me the idea. ;)

Translation Attempt 1

Okay. So I'm here at my office table, hungry, bored, and thinking of something to do. Yesterday, my boss asked me to check her presentation by finding any grammatical and spelling errors (woah! is my english good? NO! but i want to believe that it is good enough since I spotted some corrections, mostly -ED and -S).

I was a big fan of Parokya ni Edgar when I was in high school. I miss listening to their songs. Since I'm bored, kinda feeling useless. I wanted to do something fun? So yeah.. I decided to translate their song in Bahasa Indonesia but I doubt if it makes sense. hihi! hiks!

This Guy is In Love with You Pare
Cowok itu cinta kamu, dong! (hahahaha!)

(this guy's in love with you pare...ano?)
(Cowok itu cinta kamu, dong! apa?)
One look and then yun iba na
Satu lihat dan itu beda
Malagkit dumikit ang tingin ng mata
Matanya lengket
One smile,iba na ang ibig sabihin
Satu senyum, maksudnya ganti
'di na friends,ang tingin nya sa akin
lihat saya bukan teman
Everyday parating we're together
Setiap hari kami bersama
Every week,palaging may sleepover
Setiap minggu, ada nginap
Ang tawag nya sa mommy ko ay tita
Dia panggil ibu ku tante
Bakit ba,di ko non nakita
Kenapa saya tidak lihat?

Bridge
Jembatan
Until out of the blue,
Sampe luar biru,
Im feeling so true
Rasanya benar
Bigla nalang sinabi sa akin that
Dia bilang semuanya sekalian

Chorus
This guy's in love with you pare,
Cowok itu cinta kamu, dong
This guy's in love with you pare
Cowok itu cinta kamu, dong!
This guy's in love wiyh you pare
Cowok itu cinta kamu, dong!
Bading na bading sayo..
Dia banci karena kamu

Di na ako makasagot ng telepono
Saya gak mau angkat nelpon
Palagi nyang kinakausap ang parents ko
Dia lagi bicara sama orang tua ku
Kulang daw sa tulog at di na makakain
Katanya tidurnya kurang dan gak bisa makan
Bakit ba? di pa non inamin
Kenapa dia gak akuin kemaren?

Repeat bridge and chorus
Jembatan dan chorus lagi

Everyday daw ay rainy day ang monday
Setiap hari ujan, senen
'coz 'di na ko maaya to come out and play
Karena dia gak bisa ajak aku ke luar dan main
Tinataguan na nga,palaging late o absent
aku ngempet, telat atau cuti
Ang sabi parin
Tabi dia bilang lagi
"i'll always have a friend that you can depend"
Kamu punya teman bisa tolong kamu

Oohh...
ahhh gitu
Di kailangan na mag-oonn...
Gak perlu pacaran
Parang talong at bagoooong...
Kaya terong dan ikan bumbu

This guy's in love with you pare
Cowok itu cinta kamu, dong
This guy's in love with you pare
Cowok itu cinta kamu, dong
This guy's in love with you pare
Cowok itu cinta kamu, dong
Bading na bading
Benchong benar
Converted parin
Lagi ganti
Na nakikipag-fling sayo..
Mau ttm/hts sama loh

Repeat chorus with..
Chorus lagi sama..

Oh no! my bestfriend's gay
Adu! Teman dekat gw benchong
It's the same old friend i had yesterday
Itu yang sama teman lama, saya punya kemaren
And he's happy.. and gay...yeah..yeah..
Dan dia senang.. dan benchong.. iya.. iya..
Na na na nananana na nanan na(2x)
Nek nek nek neknekneknek nek neknek nek (dua kali)

Better ask Tony (my friend who is Indonesian and fluent in Filipino to check this..

Random Thoughts

I dunno. I miss Ryan. I dunno how to express it further. I find him so numb. He always try not to portray any emotion. This is getting difficult day by day. No assurance on when I will be coming back. Should I go back to Manila soon or what? Everything seems to be unpredictable. One thing is sure, I want a comfortable life. My parents brought me up this way. I dunno if I can learn how to step down a bit. Awhile ago my workmates were telling me that the kost (serviced studio type apartment) where I am moving to on March is expensive coz I earn less than that but my dad will be the one to finance it. It is pretty ironic though. I'm working but all I get from the company is not sufficient to fund my everyday needs. I just use it for shopping. Well, you have to give it to me. I haven't finished university yet and Dad told me that he doesn't like me to stay in a basta basta place since he has been working so hard all this time to give us a comfortable life. I love my dad eventhough he gets toxic at times.

Thoughts are all over my head. I can't express them into words but I can say that I'm pretty scared (not so scared) about the future. Tuition fees are really high and I have to send Daphne to a good school for sure. How am I able to do that on my own? On the other hand, I'm trying to find a way to be financially independent in the near future. Ayoko na may masabi sila sa akin. I wanna stand up with my own feet. Hopefully, I will be able to save up for a comfortable house soon, if ever I will be settling back to Manila or get a relatively good paying job here. What about other countries huh? hmm.. Let's see.

Dad is getting a job! Yay! :D Thank God! It took only a month of waiting. God is great! :) Justice and good karma come back so quick so no need to revenge or anything. yeah that's right. ;)

Btw, my sperm donor offered a child support. I said NO THANKS with my left eyebrow up. haha! I hope I could tell that to him face to face.

Conflicts, Confrontations, and Isolation

3 things that I am thinking about at this very moment.

Kinda worried but I am choosing to cuek aja and act as if wala akong pakialam.

Ang gulo!!!

After 3 days...

of not going to work.

I'm clueless. ;) I smell something fishy..

Mungkin Mba Dian bisa menggelaskan. :D is my bahasa betul?

Why other people cannot say straight to other people's faces that they are BROKE?

i've been broke for the past 2 weeks because of my sky rocketing phone bill. i never had to make excuses or sugar coat my situation. i brought food at work, skipped after office coffee hangouts. but yeah.. i survived. then there's this boy who was trying to make excuses for his failure to give me ^^^^^^^ this ^^^^^^^^^.. sabi niya, i want to give it to you personally.. yeah right, will wait for that. i'm kinda pissed. ^eyes rolling^
