The big bosses… si Myles (boss ko! Motorola pa ang phone oh, eh naka-iPhone 3G S na s’ya ngayon), si Dennis at si Emily (ng Naturale noon, DEG na ngayon Ü). Teka, straight at maikli pang buhok ni Emily dito. Ngayon kasi long at curly na!
Goofy and happy sila ah…
Nakatiro sa itaas? Naka-no.1 na senyas? Isa pa daw na ano?
Kelan nga ba ito? Ewan ko ba? Nakita ko na lang ito sa archives ko e. Wala lang… Ü

I was kind of bored this Saturday. It was quiet this weekend for me. So I did some exploration here in WordPress and changed my theme and the header (look up!)…
It’s a cropped version of my photo. See the full picture…
It was my first pumpkin masterpiece during my first fall and Halloween experience in New Jersey, USA. I shared that experience with my brother Kuya Nahnel and his family.
Instead doing some sculpting on the veggies (or fruits?), I painted on it and stuck noses and ears added some ribbons and eyeglasses. The pumpkins are the representation of my brother (the biggest pumpkin), my sister in law Ate Vangie (the one with red lips), my niece Noelle (the one with red ribbons) and me (with purple eyeglasses frame).
Unfortunately, before the Halloween came, the biggest pumpkin (my bros) was stolen in broad daylight 😦 some teenage girls in a car stopped in front of the house and took the pumpkin. In a hurry, the cap fell of the pumpkin and was left behind. They got away 😦 Oh well…
Up to now, I’m still wondering what the hell are they going to do with that quite huge and heavy pumpkin. That’s quite a lot for just a pumpkin pie, don’t you think?
Mind floating elsewhere… so might as well do something productive (aside from doing work stuff)… post a blog Ü
We’ve moved last April to a new location from the original “house” of Myles (my boss and friend) a couple or more blocks away. Originally, Myles’ home and our office was just in one roof. But like a family, we are sort of “growing” and our bosing made a huge step of separating the office to his home. Hence, we moved here…
This is the new House of Myles office, taken photo hmmm… a few months ago after we moved. By the way, that’s me in red with the knapsack ready to go home Ü And the pretty lady with the headphones in front of an iBook is Rio, our ever-patient “ambassador of goodwill” 😉
Our space is all white and clean, making it more spacious. But it isn’t complete just yet. We need to place some artworks on the wall, make the room really cool or cold until we need to wear some fur coats or something “fashionably” cool, hehehe :p But we’ll get there one step at a time 😉
This is me in my post a few weeks after we first moved in. Yup. That’s Bumblebee as my wallpaper Ü
Weather nowadays is quite unpredictable. At this -ber months it’s supposed to be rainy and getting to be cooler months. But it seems that summer is having some extensions… and undeniably, it’s because of global warming 😦 just yesterday, Myles talked to the whole team and we need to move and do some adjustments. We need to move inside our conference-dining area. It’s the only room in our office so far that has air conditioner. Hence, this is my new location…
Taken just a few minutes ago by our bosing also a photographer, Myles Ü That’s Aileen, our youngest team member and my co-brandesigner. She illustrates all the cute stuff… but lately she’s been doing some doodling of a sex-depraved goat. She’s going into the next level… hihihi! Ü
Oh, in that picture I’m doing a booth design using Google Sketchup… which by the way, I have to get back to after I post this blog entry :p
This entry, posting one last photo shot…
One happy shot! Since Aileen and I are into Korean novelas and Korean OSTs might as do the famous pose 😀 Isn’t it obvious that we are happy and also having fun at work and while working? well, if we aren’t I don’t think I’ll be blogging this now 😉
Aren’t cool? Literally (since we are in an air conditioned area now) and figuratively speaking? Ü
Perhaps next work photo I’ll be posting we’ll be wearing some trench or fur coats :p
It’s been awhile since I kind of hang out in a café or coffee shop. It was just one of those spontaneous days. I was to go home in our province but decided to hitch with my really nice neighbor-friend Gou on her way to her work… on a weekend. Since I have my Biggie 2 with me, I decided to give it a try connecting over the net. While exploiting the free wifi in Starbucks Galeria, which is by the way quite fast and stable (free advertisement!)… I decided to get myself my usual: Iced Caramel Macchiato.
It’s the usual procedure: go to the counter, state your order and they ask your name. Well, since I have such an unusual name, I have to spell it aside from saying it: “It’s Nemcy. That’s N-E-M-C-Y.” And still, I got this…
This is the first time that I got “Netsy”. Other names I’ve been baptized with were:
– Mercy
– Marcy
– Nercy
– Mency
– Nancy… without spelling it.
– Nemsy… The nearest of my real name so far.
It just never changed, doesn’t it? May be I should go for just plain Anna or Sam.
Well, at least the internet is stable. Despite the bad name thing, I’ll still come back to that Starbucks branch… if I am in the area with my Biggie of course 😉
Tagged by Jose aka Chong….ergo answer away!!!!
As Jose did it: I tag anyone who cares to read this and would want to answer these questions in their respective blogs.
Have denied love
Forbid myself from falling again
Come ‘til the time is mine.
Mine that will stay…
Stay in a different way.
Thinking this was it
Felt happy but with uncertainty
Come the time I was to admit
That I may have been falling
But denied by the thought
All was delusion.

Kayo naman!
Yup. Not a great week just like the past weeks. But since one is living with it, might as well make the most out of it.
To get by or overcome some uncertain feeling even for just awhile, I went for a movie. I was in the verge of choosing between watching Harry Potter and The Order of Phoenix or repeating Transformers. Took the latter because Rio and I are to catch a surprise party later that night. We watched the same movie, in the same cinema but separately. She has a date, I went in alone.
I missed the first part, up until the base was attacked. But it was ok. I’ve seen it full previously. And the point of this entry, I still have the same feeling for the movie as it was when I first viewed it. YES. Geek orgasm as some calls it, but for me, it was purely ahhhh… awesome. Still breathe-taking and since it’s my 2nd viewing, I looked at the details on the transformation more. It was like a dance by machines, mechanical beings… like a fusion of math and art. I never in my life thought in any event engineering and art would come together. College history, don’t ask.
Who wouldn’t like to have a cool car that fully automatic and transform into your personal bodyguard? Aka Bumblebee, the “Guardian”.
The voice of Optimus Prime is very authoritative in the sense that you’d respect it. But still my favorite is Bumblebee. Perhaps he’s more inclined to humans and sounding really a nerd, geek or even a loser… I can associate with the kid’s life. I don’t know, perhaps being single and all.
Ask if I’d watch it again? Yes. Definitely a YES. With this movie, I am proud to admit, I am perhaps still a kid at heart, a nerd and a geek.
Call me Wonder Girl, if you must!
Kung may mga kantang tulad ng “Sana Dalawa Ang Puso Ko” at “Isang Linggong Pag-ibig”, meron na bang kantang nagsasabing nahulog ang loob mo sa pinakamaikling panahon?
Is it possible to fall in love on someone or something for just a day?
Hmmm…
Wala lang… naisip ko lang na baka nga may kanta para sa ganoong scenario.
I did fell in love with this man from our client’s office. Well, up to now, hindi pa rin ako sigurado kung love nga ba ‘yun o init lang ng katawan. Whatever that is, wala rin naman akong napala. Kahit first base man lang. Whatever that means. He was just there in a not so right time. Siguro hinubong ko lang ang sarili ko na siya na nga. Thinking that we are of the same situation, (almost) the same principles, almost the same birthday and pareho kaming mahilig sa mga bata. But here I am still getting hurt or affected pa rin kapag I get to learn he ask this girl out, or harap-harapan siyang nakikipaglandian sa ibang babae samantalang nakaupo lang naman ako sa likuran ng kotse n’ya. Oh, and for the record that he’s doing that, alam n’ya that I kinda like him.
I perhaps created a fictional world for me to enjoy and be happy around this guy being my knight in shining armor and me as the princess in distress, trapped in the tower. Yet now, the tower starts to crumble. Or better yet, it has no lock after all. I pretty much can just open the door and go down the stairs! Well, it is I who should destroy what I built, right?
It’s no fairy tale, nor a happy ending.
Maglumandi s’ya kung kanino. Nabuhay ako at mas tahimik pa nga dati nung wala siya, ba’t hindi ngayon di ba?
Bitter Ocampo?! Sabi sa akin ng friends ko. Bitter na kung bitter. Napahiya ako e, disappointed. Ang plastic ko naman kung ngingiti pa ako di ba? May mga moments pa rin na tanga at gaga pa rin ako sa kanya. Lalo na may sungit moments din. Let me recover naman. As much as I wanted na sana isang sukahan na lang o parang umutot ka lang tapos wala na yung kabag sa tiyan mo, hindi ganu’n-ganu’n lang eh. Somehow may latak pa ring maiiwan di ba? May konting natitira sa sistema mo. Pero in due time, malilinis na rin. Sana merong parang Diatabs o Kremil-S na gamot para sa isang dignified recovery. (Plugging ba ito?)
Kahit papano, I feel I am recovering naman. Bumabawi na. Sabi nga bilis naman daw mag-bounce back (sa taba ko daw kasi) Hahaha! Fine! Mataba na kung mataba, papayat din ako noh. Sana. Anyway, balik sa naunang tanong: Is is possible to fall in love in the most shortest time? Kababawan di ba? Pero siguro, humanga lang ako pansamantala. Oo nga, I used this poor kid perhaps to get over that man in the other office. I used in the sense that I didn’t hurt anyone naman… bad ‘yun! ‘Yoko makarma noh. Door to door na ngayon at next day delivery na kaya ang karma!
Nakakatuwa lang. He helps me in a way na maka-recover or ma-divert ang utak ko. Pero hindi nga possible. Bakit?
1.) Di ko naman talaga siya type. Way out of the Orlando Bloom, Jake Gyllenhaal at Collin Farrel ideology ko. ‘Wag na kumontra, pangarap nga eh. Libre lang ‘yun. Di ko kayo pinakikialaman ha?!
2.) I am old. Really OLD. And just the other day, I helped him out pa yata to realize na ang bata pa pala n’ya. Wow. I never dream of being a cradle snatcher, nor be in a May-December affair. Uso na nga daw ‘yun, but then again, hindi ako sumasabay sa mga uso. EVER.
3.) May sabit na siya. It’s a big deal for me. Although minsan may evilness na bumubulong sa akin na kasamaan na once in my life, I’d be a mistress or destroy a relationship… pero hindi ko kaya. As in. Lalo kapag pinagdidiinan na “mahal na mahal” n’ya.
In fairness, bibigyan ko na lang ng award ‘yung batang ‘yun. Sana nga tunay lahat nung pinapakita n’ya. His girlfriend would have been very lucky. What more kung magiging asawa na n’ya.
Timing was good siguro, in helping me get over the other one. But the scenario is quite bad, and the person? Lalo pa. Kataon lang, araw-araw mo katabi, nakikita, halos nakakasabay umuwi. Pero hindi rin. Nah. Hindi ko kaya. I am the writer of my own life. This is not a new chapter. Corny.
Nagkataon lang nga siguro.
If I may say this, it’s the wrong man, at a wrong place and definitely a wrong time.
And there’s no such thing as falling for a day or even fell for a day. Nagkataon lang… uulitin ko pa ulit… nagkataon lang. Pero kung pag-iisipan. Imbento lang e. Over analyzed.
As in OA.
Snapped back to reality, dear!
And besides, ayoko sa laging late.
Me, Myself And Perhaps Others As Well
