AARRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

We've just finished pitching. And at last, it's already weekend. Feels like i have to really rest after a week-long experience of being a robot. Haaay....

It's been a month now of solitude. Nights of self-satisfaction, nights of porno, days of reminiscing, nights of routine, days of heavy traffic... AAARGGHH!

Sigh...

Today, we'll be evaluated.

Not as human beings, but as Call center agents... I just hope it will turn out fine.

My life is rated NC-17.
What is your life rated?

Something's wrong 'cause my mind is fading
And everywhere I look there's a dead end waiting
Temperature's dropping at the rotten oasis
Stealing kisses from the leperous faces

Heads are hanging from the garbage man trees
Mouthwash jukebox gasoline
Pistols are pointing at a poor man's pockets
Smiling eyes ripping out of his sockets

Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind

Love machines on the sympathy crutches
Discount orgies on the dropout buses
Hitching a ride with the bleeding noses
Coming to town with the brief case blues

Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind

Something's wrong 'cause my mind is fading
Ghetto-blastin' disintegrating
Rock 'n' roll, know what I'm sayin'
And everywhere I look there's a devil waiting

- Devil's Haircut, Beck

- tis the song for the day

Training Day

It's been 2 weeks now. Two i-dunno weeks of memorizing scripts, wasting time, talking like a true-blue American, pretending you know-it-all, drinking gallons of coffee, spending sums of precious money on not-so-important meriendas, yakking and babbling with one another about everything under the sun, etcetera etcetera.

Whew, quite a blast, you might say. Yeah right.

It's been 2 weeks also of convincing yourself that you've found a good job...

Well, this is basically my first time here, and my first time to "blog"... anyway, for those reading this, I'm from the Philippines, im a teacher, and Im 21.

Right now, because of some unwanted events during the past few months, Im forced to work now as a call center agent. Yup, you heard it right, a call center agent. Many of you may be wondering, what a Communist-atheist-teacher-graduate from UP is doing in a mechanical-boring and routinary workforce like this. Well, honestly, I don't know. I just wanted a job. I just want to earn my own money, and to make myself productive, especially now, I have resigned from work. (Why did I resign? Ummm, let's just talk about it next time, ok?)

To cut the story short, I met this girl, also from UP Diliman (that's University of the Philippines, for those who dont know), and she encouraged me to make a BLOG.. there's the story.. You'll hear a lot from me again next time, so goodbye for now. : )
