Parachute

I won't tell anybody that you turn the world around

I won't tell anybody that your voice is my favorite sound

Say your worth before you regret it!

Sabi ng mga friends ko sakin, when you do job interviews, the interviewees would really try to squeeze out the amount of salary you want. I wonder if this scenario would happen:

Interviewer: How much do you think we should pay you?
Me: Sir, I went to your company because I think I would grow here and my skills would be maximized. So whatever you think my services are worth, I'll be contented with that.
Interviewer: C'mon, just give us a rough estimate.
Me: I insist, Sir. Just give me a pay that's enough of the services I've shown.

*Salary day comes*


*Boss hands in the salary*



Me: THIS IS ALL I'M WORTH???!!! *throws a fit* *punches boss to the stomach* *wildly finds the interviewer* *b*tch slaps the interviewer*


Lol.


I just woke up. Originally, I am planning to boycott work today. But sad face, I still had things to do today. Sometimes, I wish text messages aren't invented. Like, I wouldn't receive my work tasks today. Pwahahaha.

Anyways, I had a strange dream again. I was buying a plane ticket going to US for P60. Hahaha. How cheap. Then, the strangest thing is, the guy I'm buying from is a Korean. I even saw his writing! Dang, that's not a dream. My psychology teacher said we can't read in dreams. Well I saw Korean characters, I can't read it because I don't know Hangul. But the letters, they were so vivid. It was written in green ink on a white piece of paper.

Oh wells.

"Online Love"

So I'm going to get online bashes for posting this on Facebook, so this would probably be a safer place to post. The last time that I post his video on FB, it was soooo chaotic. Not going back to that place anymore.

Sooo... This guy is asking whether online love is possible?

My answer. Yes. Because I'm so in love with you right now.

Kidding. :)

For someone like me who sometimes believe that love can be surreal, it's quite hard to imagine if online love is indeed true. But as a line in Beastly goes, "Can you imagine a love like that?" Yes, it's imaginable, it does exist, but I wonder how stable this kind of love is.

First of all, this love is based on sugar, spice, and everything nice. People fall in love with people online because they show all their bright sides. I mean, you wouldn't post a picture of you in which you think you're ugly, right? You won't even dare say things that would cause people to hate you. So when we go online, we tend to use masks--masks of our greater selves.

I know that in my recent post, I said that people should be less cynical. That's true, but sometimes we can't really give our full trust to people we barely know. Like a year ago, a friend told me that they have this homework in class wherein they are required to try out a relationship online. Who knows, someone who seems nice to you might just be using you as a hamster or house rat or whatever mouse people use for experimentation.

Then, we never really know how these people are like offline. Yesterday, my younger cousin, Reign, asked me to define what being offline in Facebook was. Well, basically, being offline is living your real life away from anything on the internet. I told her that definition, but I guess she still hasn't gotten to that level yet. So anyways, I've always wondered if people were just making their lives sound more exciting when they go online. When I read my blog posts, they seem really dull and lifeless. I'm really wondering if my life is actually duller and more lifeless than how I write it. 

Well, the good side of having an online love affair, as I read it, is that you have good expectations of each other. You think that the one you're talking with at the far side of the world is who he really is in real life. And then, it's more convenient than having to meet real people, because basically your dates will be virtual! No need to spend a lot of moolah, energy, but yeah, time is what you invest most.

As for me, I'm not into this kind of thing. In real life, I am very awkward and uninteresting. I don't want to make false hopes to people who think I am cool and special and all that. Well of course, our Pao here is an exemption. Haha. I joke, I joke. :))

Inside

It's funny how my thoughts revolved around you all day.
It's funny how I imagined your reaction to what I'm going to say.
It's funny how I practiced saying those lines in my head just to get the reaction I wanted.
It's funny how I imagined myself smiling because of that.


But it's sad that it was just inside my head.

I guess fairy tales aren't really for girls like me.

IP addresses

Alright, the topic for tonight are IP addresses. Ok, the least techie person to talk about this is me. I don't know anything about computers, so I'll basically rely on internet sources like I usually do.

Let's start with defining what IP addresses are.

According to Wikipedia, "An Internet Protocol address (IP address) is a numerical label assigned to each device (e.g., computer, printer) participating in a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication.^[1] An IP address serves two principal functions: host or network interfaceidentification and location addressing. Its role has been characterized as follows: "A name indicates what we seek. An address indicates where it is. A route indicates how to get there."


Okay, that's still too technical for me to understand. But all I know is, every network has a unique IP address. Like in my household, everyone who will connect to our network will have the same IP address.


Oh gosh. Why do I even bothered.


It all boils down to this: we should all be less cynical and believe in the sincerity of one. Technology makes mistakes too. People can have the same IP address. You say it's impossible. Well I tell you what Nike said, 'Impossible is nothing."


Ktnxbye.

Science and Faith

You won't find faith or hope down a telescope,

You won't heart and soul in the stars.
