I just came from the Christmas party of our company held in The Crown Plaza Hotel here in Ortigas, and the highlight of the event was a 2-hour show by Gary Valenciano. Now I have never been to any of his shows before and much less have I ever seen him perform live, so I didn’t know what to expect. I know he’s a great singer and dancer and every concert that he held anywhere on Earth was always a hit, but to me seeing is believing. And you know what? Believe I did! What impressed me the most was the way he sincerely expressed his appreciation for the crowd, who in turn showed THEIR appreciation for him. He always sounded so sincere and everything he said seemed to touch the hearts of everyone there. Plus of course he was a great singer after all and a great dancer. Everyone was like screaming, it was hysteria. I never realized watching a Gary V performace was so much fun. Throw in his 2 sons who themselves gave the crowd a lot to cheer about and what you have is a phenomenal mini-concert. We were really lucky that ours was Gary’s last "major event for 2005". He really gave it all out and performed in front of a screaming audience like there was no tomorrow. Which sadly may be partially true because of his condition. He even showed everyone his insulin pump which I must admit made me admire this guy’s dedication to his profession. No demon in hell could stop this guy from giving the audience all that he can. Truly inspiring. Wish everyone saw him perform that night.

Yes! Today I start the first of 4 days of no work! I actually started it yesterday when I didn’t go to work last night due to some unavoidable medical reasons. I may get into trouble ‘coz of that, but that’s OK. I’m just happy I don’t go to work for now. note: Ok so even back then...

Don’t you just hate how your money seems to be of less and less value because of the perpetually increasing cost of prices? Hell, I work my butt off for the salary that I get, the hard-earned and well-deserved compensation for a decent job well done that one would think would be sufficient for a single individual to survive in this economically hostile environment, only to find out that it will never, ever be enough? What, with the prices of utilities and consumer products beating NASA in the race to the moon, how the fuck can we cope up? But who’s complaining? This IS the Philippine government we’re talking about after all. Crap.

I still feel pissed about having to delete my old blog but what the hell else could I do. Anyway, work is dragging on normally as usual. I did learn a thing or two about stress management today. One is that its essential in keeping one’s head on his shoulders in the face of all the shit that happens around him; and two, is that stress management is hard to do if not virtually impossible. I know its do-able but hey, the mere act of trying to manage one’s stress levels in itself is stressful enough! What a simple world this is we live in huh?

My previous blog went bull, and so did one of my photo albums, for absolutely no apparent reason. I’ve got 89 pictures now that I now have to back up into a new album, goddamit. So to ya’ll, be careful with what you do here so things don’t get all fucked up.
(This was the earliest post I found over at Friendster. Take note that I'll only be migrating posts that I composed, and not copied such as song lyrics etc.)
