fragments of thoughts

my phone started restarting endlessly 30 minutes ago. i dont know why. it just did. this is a sign. mwahaha. i can sense a new phone coming up. hahaha. well, i just mentioned it here for the heck of it. and no, i dont want a new phone. really. i know i've been changing phones like every after 1.5 years. but now it's more of not wanting to transfer all of my contacts to a new phone. thatd be such a hassle.

a short continuation of my party aftermath entry:
i have received a new alias. it was all karlo's idea. the merlion statue of singapore. how apt. and i thought the teasing ended that night. apparently, it didn't. well, at least, this may be the last one. unless of course, i get drunk and puke again. that'd be another story to tell. and i would make another party legend. haha. anyway, i did not react violently to what my friend said, i.e, spread in the block egroup. rather, i took the joke for i thought it was funny. as i said in my reply to his email, at least in a way i have become a tourists' attraction. its just that in our case, it was more of party attraction. haha. oh well, i'd just wait for the next block party. hmmm. after grad?

and so i finally decided to go to the talk hosted by mitchell madison tonight. i almost didn't go. i felt lazy. but after listening to the speakers, i thought i want to get the job even if it's only for two years, or max, 3 years. i mean, some of them left for the states even before they graduated. hired today, left tomorrow. now, isnt that just amazing. talk about quick traveling opportunities. some would make you wait for about 6 months or so before u can leave the country FOR SOME TRAINING. it's not the case with mmg. some of their recent hires already left the country right after they were hired, i.e., even before they graduated. catch is, they got thrown to heavy work right away as well. now, i'm not quite sure if that's how i want things to go. but more or less, i can say i want the job. fast-paced. challenging. and what's best, there's quick traveling opportunity. the only irritating thing in the event was this guy who didn't seem to know any other adjectives besides cool and challenging. as the speaker after him said, he used 'cool' 16 times during his entire speech. but i'd like to believe it was more than just 16 times. because that was all i can remember about what he said. it was so cool. cool. it really was cool. i thought it was cool. cool. cool. tsss. at least the next two speakers, his colleagues, made more sense. they were more interesting to listen to and more helpful. i didn't have to hear the story about being in a white shirt, just hanging around with some friends bleh bleh more than twice.

lately, i realized how i dont want to work for some company out there anymore. i think. it seems like the spirit of entrepreneurship is calling out on me. but the big problem is, i dont know what business to start. two reasons why i think i dont wanna work. 1. i dont really like being bossed around. and i think thats not far from happening in the work place. 2. i dont like having long gaps between eating. hehe. sounds like a simple shallow problem eh? sorry. not for me. i value eating so much that i dont think i can take a job that wont let me eat when i want to. i know, arrogant. haha. but oh well, as if i have the right to say those things. in the first place, i dont have job offers. i'm starting to feel like such a loser. while everybody else is taking exams, doing interviews, here i am still waiting. somehow. see, i'm not even sure if i wanna come back on thursday in manila (im going home tomorrow) for the nestle recruitment... as if this is even the perfect/right time to be such a lazy jobhunting ass.
