Contrary to everyone's expectations...
...I'm alive and kicking.
Unfortunately, my computer wasn't.
Imagine a month of having your computer die on you. No access to your documents, no access to your email, no access to the net. Imagine the horror. I magine the withdrawal symtoms.
Well, that was my life the past month, and yes, I survived it.
Of course, I'm in the market now for a new PC. Haha. If I listen to the photographers I often work with, I'm in the market for a new laptop too. But, that's what they think. *evil laugh*
Anyway, what have I been up to the past month? Well, working, as usual. If you guys have a copy of the July issue of FHM, the Tricks styling gel ad with Diana Zubiri is part of my portfolio. That's the easiest one to find. Check out UNO and Working Mom and Mommy Academy for editorial work. I dunno, what else...I forgot lots but that's enough work wise.
Lovelife is still dead, like there's gonna be any news on THAT front. Haha. I have this niggling feeling that someone found this journal, which is the reason why I'm a weee (very wee) bit relieved that the pc went awry when it did: I didn't update, there's no reason to check my journal. No stalking, good good.
If dating is a whole big ocean, I did try to find the smallest, shallowest pool on it's shores and dipping the edge of my smallest toe in. I decided that the water's too cold and I'd rather stay on the shore as I don't know how to swim still, thank you very much.
If that last sentence is a bit too obscure, sorry. :P
What else...
Well, I went out the past week and a half more times than I did the past four months put together. Pathetic, huh? At least I'm beginning to go out again, which is a miracle in itself.
Since the documents on my pc are shot to hell (JAY, ASAN NAKALAGAY YUNG MY DOCS KO???), I can't post any pictures yet. I will do so once I'm sure everything is hunky-dory.
Ok, I've got to go prepare for my shoot tomorrow. I'm dragging my feet, I feel so lazy.
Oh, I did finish a ton-load of books and comics though. Spent three days stalking Neil Gaiman so I had to re-read the whole Sandman series, the result of which is a very, very, VERY vivid dream about someone from the past leading to an insight which I knew anyway but my subconscious wanted to reiterate. (Note:I know, my writing is rusty, sorry for run-in sentences and the like.)
Oh, and how's this for balance: after rereading volumes one to eleven of Sandman, I read two books by Terry Pratchett, then re-read Good Omens. The latter was an exercise to see if I can actually identify who wrote which parts. I may have guessed 20% correctly. Haha.
I also finished "Bag of Bones" by Stephen King last night. It's the second book by King that I've read in my life. I don't know why I get to read his long-winded ones (the first one was Tommyknockers, which I didn't like...but I was twelve). Anyway, Bag of Bones is good enough but he could have taken a full third out of the book, imho. I kept skipping the parts where he was over-describing everything. I know, he thought it added atmosphere, but after a few hundred chapters of atmosphere, it got pretty boring. Plus, skipping those darn parts didn't make you lose anything.
Oh, and I had a nightmare last night, 20 minutes after putting the book down and sleeping. I know the time frame because I checked the time before sleeping and then checked it again after waking up from the dream. If you guys think Woody from Toy Story is an innocous cartoon character, think again. I've had several bad dreams concerning him (I've no idea why either, so don't ask), including last nights.
Ok, off to work. Tell me you missed me. Haha.
