My Kind Of Bookstore

-

 I have visited the shop twice..located at 55 Maguinhawa St., UP Village Quezon City just near UP Diliman campus..

Bookay Ukay..I have first met the name 5 or 4 years ago via Multiply.com. I have seen those rare books though used one and have bought some philosophy books a couple of years ago. And last weekend I have returned and took some pictures..I was not surprise there is a rare collection of cds for sale too..some vintage camera..and a lot more and more books..





 I have this Neruda book and no doubt I have bought it..


another one that I have bought is a mini biography of James Joyce..



I should have bought this one, a Filipino clock that goes counter-clockwise and the hour is on the reverse too..weird but not..a connotation of Filipino time as we know it..

Not the usual scenario..for several years I am attending that occasion but last night I have missed it..I have missed it intentionally..I do not want those circus of idiots..circus of ineffective! bunch of non-sense! bunch of people who acted not like human..magbababoy! nambababoy!..in short..EVIL! God bless them.. Some truths are stranger than fiction. 1. Petitioned to be taken out - siya pa ang nakakuha ng prize! 2. Called for a prize - pero binawi kasi dapat hindi kasama..so bakit tinawag pa? obviously tanga yung nag-include ng name ng pobreng mama..umasa na kanya na ang prize eh hindi pala.. 3. Those two up there are acting as if tinotopak lagi..hopefully they can be flushed out here..some are planning about it.. Anyways I just soaked myself in rain and coffee last night..better be alone than sorry! P.S. - that chicken with kabute ( photo below) one of the despidida meal for Japs - maybe next week he will be in Qatar! Goodluck! Buti pa siya makakaalis na! P.S. - ah...

A friend and an office-mate had his "initiation moments" at AGSB..continuous learning must be pursued regardless of our intention..not only we can learn the theoretical lessons but most of all the lesson of life in interacting those people..Goodluck and see you at the upper level of management someday hahaha!!

(New) Home Sweet Home!

And last night I have my first night last here in our new house ( a flat just maybe 15 minute-walk away from Dammam Palace Hotel). And I enjoyed the first night and day. And eventually our three months to follow. I am here with my fellows like Grover and Ayie ( both from my previous company) and Ryan. We decided to transfer here for some good reasons and one of them is the cost. It is much less cheap here than staying at the furnished apartment. And the  other one is the internet connection. In the apartment the wifi is so slow that we still have to wait for the right timing to get connected ( usually late at night or very early in the morning). But here we have bought a 4G router via Zain and we are very much contented with the speed (30 mbps!) and that's very great. I could watch the latest episode of Anthony Bourdanain's show or the David Letterman Late Show. I could also stream and watch some of my TV series via Glow Gaze. Thank you Zain. Living abroad is like a reality t...
