You may call it the long weekend but it never was long enough. I mean, I'll know it's long enough when I really am able to relax and I start to miss my job. But if I still dread waking up early to sit in front of the computer and deal with the pressure and stress that comes with it, then it's not a long weekend at all. Well, at least for me.

Anyhow, I think I'd like to share this little thing I recorded around two weeks ago at the Chef's House. Usually, it's the customers who do the requesting. This is the first time that I heard the singer request the customer to do something. Haha!

Thursday, my orgmates and I went out for a mini-reunion. Of course, the only orgmates I was able to meet were those who were based here in Legazpi. We did tell lots of stories and shared tons of our UP Ibalon experiences. And it was a fun night. We're planning on joining this year's Padunungan which is going to be held in BU on the 25th to the 27th of this month. And maybe we'd be having a reunion around Christmas. We're still thinking of where to hold the event. Oh it was really fun. We don't go out that often and I'm really happy their remembered me when they decided to go out and unwind.

Last Friday, the usual people from our department were not present at the bar. In fact, this time, those from the content writing department were there. Haha. That day also was Theon's birthday. I knew that he was alone in the house with his sister, Bem. So Leonel and I decided to go there. Bem told us that she'll be sleeping over at our house. Good thing we were at Theon's or else he would've been celebrating his birthday alone.

Sometime in near 10pm, I took out the cake, and he lit his own candle. It was one of those candles you use during brownouts so it was not actually placed on the cake itself. Just somewhere near the cake. And we clapped our hands silly and continued drinking. By the way, we drank Barcelona brandy. I know. It's just like most types of brandy though the difference is that it smells like Vanilla so much so that I felt nauseated and dizzy after a couple of shots.

The three of us planned on going swimming the day after Theon's birthday. I was at home waiting for them to text me. Leonel was the first one to text me. I told him to ask Theon if we would still be going ahead with our plans. He said that Theon was not replying. Later in the evening, when I texted Theon, he said that he was waiting for me to text him. So okay. It was a case of I'm-waiting-for-you-to-text-me-and-all-the-while-you-were-waiting-for-me-to-text-you. Haha. That kind of thing. Anyhow, we did go through with our swimming last Sunday.

I was quite proud of myself. I now know how to float. Haha. I know. I know. But could you blame me if I only learned to do it just a couple of days ago?

Now, I'm back in the office and one of the first things I'm doing is writing this blog entry when I'm supposed to be doing something really productive. Oh well. Don't you worry because after I submit this, I'll already be working on those other blogs I'm supposed to be editing.

While listening to Pirates of the Caribbean soundtrack MP3s, I've come across via YouTube the trailer of Johnny Depp's newest movie, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. And just imagine how my heart was racing again. I just can't get enough of this guy. Fine. You already know that. After all, as early as a couple of weeks ago, I've been saying tons of things about the new movie - from Johnny Depp photos as Sweeney Todd, who Sweeney Todd is, and the release of the movie poster.

Anyhow, here I am enjoying the trailer again and again and trying to find the Johnny Depp in Sweeney Todd. After all, when he's in character, he becomes the character. Oh I wouldn't want to rant more on that.

Enough blabbering here. Watch the trailer instead.

I'm guilty ya know. I've been watching the trailer for the nth time now. Haha. You just gotta love him. I want to watch the movie now. I wanna. I wanna. I wanna. But guess I'll have to wait. Until December. Maybe it would be time to have another vacation in Manila so I'll be one of the first to watch it. Haha. I just so love the trailer.

Anyway, did I mention that Johnny's singing in the movie? Reminds me of Cry Baby. Oh Johnny. Sing me a song and I don't care if you're Sweeney Todd. And play a tune on your guitar for me too. Just like you did as Roux.

One person who left a comment on my previous post said that I may be suffering from depression. Maybe I am. Maybe I have not yet realized that I am depressed but I may already be suffering from it. Hmmm... That's not a bad idea, you know.

But you see, when I am depressed, that's when I am really, really inspired to write. Well, not exactly inspired. Let's just say that I like my work better when I'm depressed. When I'm happy, you won't find me writing that often. Well, maybe I'm wrong and things have turned around and changed everything. I dunno.

Hmmm... Why don't I go over the signs and symptoms of a person sufferring from depression so I can check if I really am depressed...

Hmmm... Going through the list, it seems like I'm not depressed right now. Yey! But going through these signs and symptoms of depression remind me of those days not too long ago when I wanted to do nothing but just drink alcohol, sigh a lot, sleep late and wake up really early with only one thing in mind, and I was agitated really. It was also the time when I was losing 2 kilos a week (which I gained right back up after getting off that depression stage). Oh well.

I've got no more time for depression, ya know. But I'd like that change in weight stuff. That is, losing weight. Not gaining it.

I have not been in the mood to write for the past couple of weeks. If you have noticed, I have been able to blog at least once a day before and it ain't happening right now.

I don't know if I'm just too tired to blog when I've been going through blogs and editing blogs all day long. Or maybe if I'm just too lazy to think about something to write about. I know there are tons of things I can write about but I just don't have the spunk to do that. In fact, I'm just ranting right now. Nothing special.

I could tell you about the Desperate Housewives issue. I could tell you more about what's happening in Burma. I could tell you about how I could eat those yummy Chocovron (or whatever it is called). I could tell you about Tae-bo and all other things. I could tell you about learning that Paypal works in the Philipines and that I already have money in it. I could tell you about scrimping and saving to have those braces. I could tell you about my anxieties and worries that come next month, I'll probably be out of a job. But I ain't doing it. Not in the mood.

Maybe I'm too tired because I blog for a living and I blog as part of my daily duties. And I've just run out of creative juice and narrations for this blog. Maybe when something extra special happens. Or maybe when my kid does another 'trick'. I dunno. Or maybe when I stop downloading and playing those trial games, that's when I'll start splashing this blog with more entries.

But right now, nothing's special enough for me to deserve some space here. Or maybe this is just PMS. I dunno.
