Weekend Recap

.:Today's LSS:.

It's a divine song. I know someone who really looks to this as her favorite song, and I can't help but agree with her. It's really wonderful...

A part of me wishes she still would stick around. If only in a different capacity...

But it's pointless to wish so hopelessly.

Stick Around
by Azure

How many times do I daydream
about making love to you
and take you to a special place
where it's only me and you
I'll put away all your troubles
on the other side of the world
and run my arms around ur heart
and tell u you're my girl

So let's go steal away in the night
and we'll go far away from here
to the place where our love is right
can I take you to my world

Whenever you're sad
whenever you're crying
I'll be the one who wipes away your tears
whenever you call
whenever you need me
I'll be the one who runs to you
giving my love
well you know how much I love you
so you better not let me down
I'm not asking for too much baby
just stick around

A quiet day in the country
or a rainy night in my room
we'll hide away under my sheets
after the morning comes too soon
an afternoon in your eyes
or a lifetime in your heart
forever just stay long enough
but it leads to take a start

falling deeper in love with you
will you be there to catch me girl
are you falling deep with me too
can I keep you in my world

Whenever you're sad
whenever you're crying
I'll be the one who wipes away your tears
whenever you call
whenever you need me
I'll be the one who runs to you
giving my love
well you know how much I love you
so you better not let me down
I'm not asking for too much baby
just stick around

forever... forever
oh would you come on baby
let's go steal away in the night
and we'll go far away from here
to the place where our love is right
oooh coz

Whenever you're sad
whenever you're crying
I'll be the one who wipes away your tears
whenever you call
whenever you need me
I'll be the one who runs to you
giving my love
well you know how much I love you
so you better not let me down
I'm not asking for too much baby
just stick around

forever... forever


.:Weekend Recap: Friday:.

Much to my surprise, I ended up playing Magic in Glorietta until around 9:30 in the evening. I never even noticed the time, and I was just genuinely surprised that it got to that point already. Regardless, it was still a very enjoyable time, although it was a bit odd to go to Eastwood on my own, with not a single other soul there at all.

In any case, there isn't much for me to say. I've been vegetating on mainly a diet of video games, so I really don't have much of a chance to do anything beyond that. It's all good, though. I certainly had fun getting the Matrix mod into my Max Payne game, and seeing myself as Neo, unloading loads of lead and kung-fu against a myriad of Smiths. You should try it sometime.

.:Weekend Recap: Saturdate:.

Elgine and I are approaching our third month together, and it has been a very smooth-sailing relationship for the both of us, barring outside circumstances. I guess learning to be more patient and less impulsive has certainly helped me a lot in working things out with her for the most part.

We met up, and she was simply stunning, and I couldn't take my eyes off of her at all. To this very moment, I'm still left dumbstruck, thinking how fortunate I am to have someone like her in my life. Good or bad as things may have been in the past, I still can't deny that I so far have had two wonderful loves walk into my life, and I can't help but ask what I did right to deserve such wonderful people.

Gyn was a sight to behold, and I definitely enjoyed my time with her. She was very bubbly, sweet, and affectionate, and I saw how she slowly changed herself to make sure that I will feel very loved. She's amazing that way, and I'm at a loss for words because of it.

So while we were there talking about anything and everything that came to mind, we had lunch at Fazoli's in Eastwood. Needless to say, the meal was filled with very interesting conversations, and it makes you wonder what might have happened if I didn't ever consider teaching Philosophy. For all I know, I could never have met her. Seems to always be the case that the universe has been lining up for me to flex its muscles and prove to me that blessings can come more than once in a lifetime. Who am I to refuse such a boon, neh?

I love you so much, Elgine. We'll be celebrating our third month together this Friday, and I must say that it's been a wonderful relationship thus far. There's only one thing I can think of that would make our relationship even better...

... for it to last forever. ::gushes::

.:Weekend Recap: Saturday Night:.

I'm being lazy and doing recaps without much internalizing and whatnot. I guess it's unavoidable due to the various things I have to deal with. Ah, well.

In any case, I headed off to Jobert's house to see how the people were doing. We mainly played boardgames such as Game Of Thrones, Taboo, and Pirate's Cove, and it was definitely an amusing time for all of us. In attendance were Charles, Henry, Trish, Elvin, and Cyril. Pretty fun times, really, especially when you consider the fact that we even found time to watch Will Ferell's “The Anchorman” in between two games of Pirate's Cove.

Taboo, as usual, proved to be extremely funny, as we were finding various creative means of giving out clues to the words to guess. A Freudian slip that just completely floored everyone laughing for a good two rounds was when Charles was trying to describe a handkerchief...

Charles: I use this often. This is where I put my niggers...

I don't know where the Hades “niggers” came from in the conversation, but it was nothing short of amusing to everyone present, truth be told. We were all laughing so hard that we just had to stop playing for a while to regain our bearings...

.:Weekend Recap: Sunday:.

I joined a massive Magic tournament in Tondo yesterday, and I ran Doomsday as usual. I would've done a tournament report if it wasn't for this:

Take a step or two back from your computer. Ano basa mo sa title nung game?

Out of the people I asked, eight people thought it read “Crimson Sex 2”. Only four people got it right, as the title is “Crimson Sea 2”. I nearly scrubbed out with a dismal 3-3 record, which saw me lose to Oath and Madness, simply because I had the most horrible opening hands conceivable, and mulling my horrible hands didn't solve anything much after all was said and done...

Nonetheless, it was still a great run, and I'd be lying if I said otherwise. It was mainly about enjoying the whole affair. I apparently had quite a few readers of my blog, and it was funny as I had to tell them all about the job opening for the porn writer thing. I still can't find the form, sadly, as it would've been great to see if people would actually apply if I gave them the means to...

I was also instilling LSS into everyone by singing songs like “Joy In My Heart” and “Isang Linggong Pag-Ibig”. I suppose to make up for performing so dismally in the tournament, it would be more amusing to instead just make people have horrible images of Imelda Papin singing or something.

The store owner was laughing his head off with the Crimson Sea 2 fiasco as well, so much that he practically offered to give me the game if I won the tournament. Next time, I shall give it my all to make it there... mwahahahahaha.

.:Mr. Handshake Man:.

While waiting for my boardwork this morning, I ran into something extremely amusing, and that’s this show called Banzai Movie Friday.


One minute and seven seconds with Angelina Jolie!



I know it’s so stereotypical of the producers, but this is really funny stuff, and some of the shows I’ve seen from Japan actually do approximate the format of the show. It’s funny, but I certainly would be one of the last people to think all Japanese people are that way, to begin with…

Nonetheless, maybe I should see if I could pull off a challenge like that myself… heh.

It’s amazing how he did this with Bill Murray, though, since the first thing that comes to mind when it comes to Bill Murray nowadays is “Lost In Translation”… double heh.
