quarternotes

It's been one of the most interesting days of my life...

This morning, my bed broke down. Sad, I know. Not to be defensive, but it's not because I'm too heavy for my bed (haha); I guess it's because that bed's really old anyway. I mean, it first belonged to my mother... long ago even before she met my dad. It was lucky enough to survive for over 30 years! Ha, beat that!

I went online just like any other day and I chatted with an old friend. Apparently, he's now torn whether he'd break up with his girl or not. (NOTE: to this friend, sorry I had to blog this, don't worry, I won't mention any hint that it's you.. AND to some who knows about my friend who's been acting weird lately, this ain't him..) Anyway, this friend is stuck in a tough corner having so many things in mind. It was really nice to talk to him on stuff like this. I'd say it's been one of the most meaningful chat sessions in the history of my YM life. Hope I wasn't too cynical on the topic considering my relationship right now with Onch is going really well. But I had to tell him what's on my mind, otherwise, I'd be such a sucker friend and let him drown in foolishness! (geez, do I sound like a sour grape?! haha.. I'm not, just so we're clear) Well good riddance! I know he can survive this confusion.

Just before lunch, I heard someone getting hysterical in the other room. I wasn't eavesdropping, but I was hearing her issues. The way I understand it, she wasn't overreacting. She was hurt and I could understand why she was feeling that way. Made me kinda mad as well because those people who hurt her didn't have the right! They were questioning her schooling/studies and stuff like that. Crap, some people are just so annoying. They act as if they have authority over her, but they don't. They're not even fighting for a good cause. Their reasoning is pathetic.. childish.. they don't know where they're coming from. It's a good thing she's strong. Yeah, she can handle it. In fact, I believe she just won the battle. Yey for her!

Afternoon. They called me in the studio to play a few chords for Noel Cabangon. He was recording for the next commercial jingle for Rebisco. It felt really cool to be recording for tv ads. I just felt kinda bad that I wasn't able to play the chords as much as I want because the guitar also has to stand out. Haha. How conceited of me! Nice experience though, hehehe. Can't wait to hear it air!

This week is the last week of my former boss here in the Philippines. He emailed me a sort of "good-bye and thank you" letter.. and I cried! I guess it's because I'm just thankful that God made him my first boss. I learned a lot from him.. he taught me well =) I am gonna miss him when he leaves the country next week. I don't know when he's coming back. God will bless him, for sure. Hmm.. I'm still thinking what I can give him...

Over dinner, Dad invited me to attend the Christian Life Seminar this Saturday (and thereafter, don't know until when). I think I need a refresher on such activities. After all, it's been a while since I was exposed to Christian fellowships such YFC etc... I know this will awaken my spirit in a more mature environment - that is fit for my age. Too bad I missed the first Saturday. But hey! It's never too late.

So there goes a day of interesting experiences. Just like an old broken bed, things may come unexpectedly. But it doesn't mean you'll perish when you're caught unguarded.

And by the way, Dad had my bed fixed already.
