“I don’t get why the secret service is called ’secret service’. To me, standing behind the president all the time to be seen by lots of people doesn’t seem like a secret”
“Well…”
“I mean, come on.  They all wear the same suits, same sunglasses, same earpieces… they are nowhere near secretive”
“Well they are not secretive.  Their [...]


Hey Stranger

30Mar08

Scene:
Almost-empty bar, chill out music, excellent lighting
Drinks:
Famous house cocktail, vanilla vodka and sprite on the rocks add the cherry
Cast:
A guy and a girl
Feeling:
Mutually in love, very grown-up
Conclusion:
We should do this more often, Be.  Just you and me.  Talking over cocktail and pretend we just met.
Thought:
Maybe this is how Samantha feels when she played those silly [...]


In my professional life, there is one thing I hate the most and that is whenever somebody says:
“Meeting!”
It’s annoying how one should leave whatever he or she doing just to go into a room full of people, talking about stuff that usually bores us to the bone where we ended up sending prank text messages [...]


Idle On Idol

27Mar08

Yawn.
Lovin’ David Cook’s Billy Jean.  Great arrangement.  Michael Jackson would be pissed, but I like it.
As for the rest… good luck to Chickeze and to hell with Kristy Lee Cook’s sad sad attempt to win sympathy, although her twang helped her last night.  At least she didn’t ruin the song like she did the Beatles’.
Whatever.


“Who are they gonna sacrifice next?”
First it was Hernandez.  Now Overmyer.
Will it be Smithson?  Will it be White?  God forbid it’ll be Archuleta.  Castro might survive, Johns… maybe.  Mercado was there once, so no guarantee she’ll be safe in the future.  Malubay sucks when the tempo picks up, but she’s prolly gonna be safe as [...]


Obviously after what had happened last week I’m not gonna even try to predict who’s gonna be eliminated next in American Idol because hey, it’s a part popularity contest anyway. However, I haven’t given up on the show yet. I don’t want to comment on the contestants’ performances because Archuleta clearly made sure [...]


I’m writing this from the posh Hyatt Regency Bandung hotel room where the broadband connection costs an stupid ridiculous $15 per-24 hour.  Or was it $50?  Whatever.
When I was still a student at ITB, everytime I pass this hotel, I used to say to my friends: “Hey, one day I’m gonna come back here and [...]


… and I still think that dumb blonde Kristy whateversomethingyadayada should be the one going home.
Seriously thinking of boycotting the show until the bitch who ruined 8 Days A Week gets eliminated.
And whoever voted for her…
… clearly you guys should try to buy a one way ticket to Indonesia and watch AFI or SUPER MAMA [...]


Lovin LDN

Riding through the city on my bike all day
Cause the filth took away my license
It doesn’t get me down and I feel OK
Cause the sights that I’m seeing are priceless
Everything seems to look as it should
But I wonder what goes on behind doors
A fella looking dapper, but he’s sitting with a slapper
Then I see it’s [...]


And because I think crossing fingers is so yesterday, I think one of these in my pocket won’t hurt tomorrow.

Hello Ma’am, I’m borrowing the four-leaf clover from your blog.  Hope you don’t mind.  I really need it.
Thank you
