Midnight Realizations

what im doing now: midnight snacking for the first time in one month. aahh. this is life. slept all dusk and woke up 12:30 in the morning. good thing mcdo lasts until past midnight. too bad though, i missed the sundae... ubos na kase.

a lot of people crave for sundae during the deepest hours of the night. mcdo missed sales for a number of people who simply went home because there was no more sundae.

cashiers at mcdo can be agitated and ill-tempered. that's because they have done exactly the same thing all day: taking the orders of famished katipuneros, all having distinct personalities of their own, so the cashiers have to cope with each one. when the clock strikes twelve, i think it works the other way around.

i saw a cute couple outside mcdonald's... i recognized the guy was from BA (he's a BA hearthrob, as ayen had once put it), and the girl was straight out of a cocktail or debut party something... (maybe she's the BA female hearthrob, because she was really pretty also). when i was walking towards mcdo, they just stood out of the dark midnight: a couple of onion-skinned high-ended looking adolescents in green and blue ensemble - it would take a blind person not to spot them. they're really cute (i just deduced now), mainly because of their bright clothes. well my point is, i got reminded that love is indeed, everywhere...

they're like cats happily playing with each other. silent. feline. cute... sayang, i failed to catch them on cam.

which brings me to another realization for the night... i think i can be a good photographer. im not lifting my own chair, but i think i have the eye for beautiful things. if i had a camera, i would've had a portfolio by now. there are things i see in places that the world fails to appreciate. i see intricate patterns, beautiful phenomena, or just pretty little things. there are a lot of events around us that had to be still-lived in photographs.

change topic.

there are times that calls for a specific attitude due to sudden changes in the mood of certain people. take today for example... tin and ayen and the rest of the BE people took their second exam in BA99.2... so everyone seemed so morose and depressed, all afraid of failing grades and a dark future in accounting ahead. because friends are too depressed for the scene, i have to be the cheerful me, because you can't reciprocate their depression with the depression of your own... wla lang. na-deduce ko lang ulit. so cheer up people! life doesn't end here.

the image of young Filipino-american male adults: tall, skin-headed, pierced ears and semi-formal top over jeans... for me they all look the same. and i dont think they mind looking the same. they like to travel in groups which make them look like a team of egg-heads conquering the world - only they speak better english...

i have to find a reason why filipino-american males dont like growing their hair. it's not like filipino hair is worse than any kind of hair. only filipinos have the darkest wavy hair there is. coz chinese hair is dead wiry straight. and african hair is too kinky for their own good (besides, they're rusty, not really black). ok, maybe we share the same hair with thais and indonesians and malaysians. payag. mmm, maybe this is my next article for sidhi. haha.

do you like seeing insects perish? i do. maybe i have an insect-death mania or something. weird ko noh?

i think im sleepy again. may tomorrow be a day full of surprises...

today pala... it's already 2:55 am on my clock. bonjour!
