I was on leave last Friday as I need to go to JRU to get my brother's Transcript of Records and Honorable Dismissal. Then went straight to SSS San Juan to check for my ID. They said after more than 1 year, it was finally mailed to my old address last August (2011). Since I moved to Novaliches, I have to check it. I also visited the SSS Main @ East Ave, and again, the red tape procedures for all of our inquiries. Nothing happened here after going through 4 queues. Its my decision anyways not to go ahead for the final step. I have a feeling I wont get anything anyways. After that, went to UP to get my diploma (after 5 years!), then shopping center, I cant believe while waiting for Roxy, I bought a UP jacket, with a screaming UP at the back, I wonder if I can really wear it in public. Foodtrip with Roxy, hmmmm sarap ng cheese corn, shawarma, and 3-in-1 coffee sa tabi tabi. Met Jane as well and had some chat. Before we split off, we agreed that we do it regularly, those kinds of meeting. Roxy and I went to the Tiangge Area din pala, then both bought Herman Hesse novel, I recommended to her Siddhartha, while I took Narcissus and Goldmund. She also suggested some authors to me, which I should buy some other time. Saturday and Sunday were spent cleaning the house. Will is now headed to Croatia and will be there for the next 7 days. As for me, office stuff, might meet Roxy again and check out a Buddhist temple in Malate, and on the weekend, need to go to Nueva Ecija for my bestfriend's son birthday (my godchild).
Celine Dion's music was playing from the boss' office. Made me miss Celine's French songs which I used to sing (to myself) when I was in high school (kahit hindi ko naiintindihan). I like Jane Birkin's songs just recently after watching the film 'In Mom's Head', the song 'Quoi' in particular and 'Di Do Da'.
Adrienne Brody - first saw him in The Experiment film, and just recently, the movie The Pianist where he won Best Actor (Oscars 2002). - thanks to Roxy for all the wonderful films she gave me. And Splice film, andun din pala siya. Crush ko na siya.
Maginaw na naman, this week is the start of the brrrrrr moments, have been struggling with the aircon, headache, breeze, fog, and all related to it.
Mame and Dade just had a fight recently. When we were kids, my brother and I's opinion doesnt matter in these situations, and now, Mame just came to my bed (when I was in Aliaga visiting my grandmother who just came from the hospital), almost crying and telling me the story of their fight and all the other things that lead to it. Of course, I'll tell my mom to fight for her right. But I blamed her as well. Marriage is a partnership, there is no one who dominates the other. I once told Mame, I really can live without marriage. Even my brother who is in the province have a say on whats going on. And we both are in Mame's side. Later on, Dade went to Aliaga and seemed to court Mame again (hehe). No big deal. They have to work things out eventually because they love each other. Or is it mid-life crisis? Mame on her menopause stage and Dade on his grumpy period. They still have a lot of time together, but I hope that they will make the rest of their days the best of their lives together. Me and my brother are grown ups now, ideally, they are not supposed to think about us anymore. Its the time that they should think about themselves more.
