I was surfing the web and found the list for the top 10 must see movies for 2008. My aim is to watch every film since I average going to movies once a week. (costly isn't it?) Anyway, here's the list:
1. Iron Man
2. The Dark Knight
3. Indiana Jones 4
4. Speed Racer
5. Get Smart
6. Incredible Hulk
7. Narnia : Prince Caspian
8. Wall- E
9. Cloverfield
10. Star Trek XI
I'm not sure with Star Trek though, I'm not a big fan of it.

I woke up this morning still feeling tired. I think I need to replace my pillow since I have not been getting a good night's sleep for almost a week now. I went to bed last night bothered by something that came to mind when I received an SMS from a friend. Although there is not much to it but the paranoia in me keeps hounding me to draw conclusions that have not even materialized yet. Anyway, I want to forget it and ignore the "tragic" possibilities that I have imagined last night.
I'm thinking of reporting late for work today. I am a bit tired and my neck is still stiff. I'm just tired to go work and I want to take a vacation leave. But as it is, the situation at the workplace is sad. We're short of people and we're maximizing manpower a bit more than the usual. I have to plan my leaves at least a month ahead. But it's not like I know when I want to take my leave a month before. *sigh*

Cold Wednesday
I was supposed to meet a friend today but it was canceled due to rainfall and he's got trouble getting here on time. This is my only day off during the week and I guess it's not bad staying home this time since I spend 90 % of my time at work. I'm a bit bored. My cellphone has been silent since lunch time. I think people are too tired to send text messages today.

Relationships
My day started out early when I went to report for work at 6:30 this morning. I had a very nice plan laid out for the day. I imagined it to be very productive since I had lots of free time before crunch time, only to be disappointed later in the day to know that I have delayed work load again!
The mad dash at the retail store where I work was not expected, (well, forgive me for my indifference but I did not thought ahead of time.) I did not realize not until during the last minute that the end of the Ramadan was today. I could think of a lot of reasons and alibis for not doing what I should have done but my mind was preoccupied. And in the field where I am now, something like this is unforgivable.
***************************************************************************************
How does things fall into place? Who decides what happens in the next minute? the next day? next week? next year?
ME? I've been sitting alone earlier this evening only to realize that we think of ideals too much that we tend to neglect what is real. Sometimes when we notice other people's wrongs we tend to become radical and pass judgment without fail. We slowly dissect the person and do our own psychoanalysis on their situations. But if we take a moment to think of whatever it was we were about to say, we will realize that we see parts of ourselves and we become defensive especially when they mirror our own emotions and situations.
Relationships can become hard work and a life long commitment. We get what we give. But how come sometimes we still feel it's unfair ? Why do we feel neglected? Perhaps, taken for granted? Indeed, Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus. We are two separate worlds and there are only certain aspects where we connect. And truthfully, we disagree 90% of the time. Given that love is one of the greatest mysteries in life, we still take the risk and experience it. No one can define it or even slightly describe it. It is such a big word. It can move mountains, cross seas and can even walk a thousand miles. It can also leave you blind, hurt and broken.
I've had a few relationships. My experience may not be enough basis for any conclusion I may have regarding it but I still have hope for a happy ending. Speaking of ideals, all fairy tales seem to end with "...happily ever after." Why have no one thought of adding what happened after they got married and lived together? The prospect of having kids was not even thought of... maybe that's why it's called a tale. It only made us more idealistic and made us expect for all things to be nice & good.
Wouldn't it become surreal then?

24
That's the most number of hours I have rendered at work at one time. We had our annual inventory last night and it really drained me. It was awkward to lie down on three chairs lined up together to somehow resemble a flat elevated surface so I can rest my back and close my eyes for a while. I already expected a crazy morning considering that I was all alone handling things at our department. I tried to keep my eyes open while trying not to make errors during a cash count and while declaring accountabilities and remittances.
I was craving for coffee at 6:00 am, only to have it past 10:00 am. There was no hot water available and I was too tired to walk outside to buy coffee, at least I had saved P80 for waiting. But damn, it was bad waiting for that coffee.
I kept looking at the wall clock. I was doing a countdown till 12 nn which means I can leave for home and have my much needed rest. Actually when I got home, I was not able to do so cause I had company with me, but it was good.
Anyway, I have one more full day to spend tomorrow since it's my one day off.
