of climbing rats, dancing shoes, and more

climbing rats

i was waiting in line for the shuttle when i noticed some movement around 20 meters away... i thought they were kittens playing. to my surprise, they were 4 (or 5 maybe) rats playing outside that house.. PLAYING! they were swinging and jumping around on this shrub's flimsy stems ala tarzan and climbing the house's wall. as in a 7-foot wall... and they were climbing it... as in vertical climb. kinilabutan talaga ako. THERE'S NO ESCAPING THEM! they jump, they climb, they knaw on stuff. *shudder*

anyhow, i was a good distance from their frolicking so i was watching them for a good 5 minutes or so, when i realized.... THEY WERE RUNNUNG ON THE TREE BRANCHES OF THE TREE I WAS STANDING UNDER. i almost freaked out. there were 2 more playing tag on the branches. yuck. buti na lang the van came right at the time i saw and was ready to run all the way to makati.

MENTAL NOTE: bring umbrella next time i line up at banzon.

i want to dance

dancing is my ultimate release and i miss it. i miss the non-verbal expression... the release of energy and emotion... the sweat and the rush of it all. stumbled on thiis on kikay exchange and as i was watching her videos, i felt like i was ready to jump out of my seat and dance too... hahaha. that would have been a sight.



july 5

yesterday was a really tiring day. i spent the whole day cooped up in the 4As seminar at dusit. while i was happy at the thought of not being at the office and being unreachable by naggers, it kinda felt weird to be in the same seat for a whole work day.

i learned a lot during the seminar and im thoroughly thankful they sent me. but when the seminar ended at 530, the rain was pouring hard outside! tough luck for me.. i had to haul my ass to ABS-CBN to take a video-message of maricel soriano for the sales team. traffic and all, i got there. thanks to marj who kept me company and shielded me from her taray kilays.

i was done by 9pm. chumika rin ako ng slight kay marya and bec to remind myself i should be happy im not in showbiz. good thing hindi na umuulan at wala nang traffic sa edsa going back to makati. but my luck seems to be on vacation kasi unusually long ang pila sa shuttle going home! as in umiikot-ikot pa.

long story short, i was home by 11pm but weirdly enough was in a friendly and cheerful mood. pero pagod ang katawan... ng-O.
