fun friday

-----------------------

also, did you know lupe fiasco's "kick-push" song was sampled from 

celeste legaspi's "bolero medley". he was digging them filipino horns. 

mmhmm. 

appropriate and timely. 

because with us, it's always about time. 

so, maybe next time.

He finishes putting his stuff in a locker. She opens a locker and stuffs her bag in.

CELINE

                                                  You know what this makes me think of?

JESSE

                                                  What? 

CELINE

                                                  All those people you briefly intersect with, 

                                                  maybe make eye contact with,

                                                  and then pass by.

JESSE

                                                  Yes, we could have done that. Now it's like...

CELINE

                                                  No matter what happens, we have met.

                     JESSE just smiles and offers up his open hand.  She touches her hand to his

                     and there is a slow clasp and a slight pull toward one another.

JESSE

                                                 That we have.

thank you, karina, for this wonderful gift. 

a list of...

i keep forgetting what i'm doing...

 this is an ongoing habit or maybe i should say is simply my 

modus operandi.

today,  i listed with intent the things i wanted/needed to get done today.

i wrote them down in my notebook and even typed it in my google tasks list. i made

sure to list them in order of priority. 

none..i say, none of those things were accomplished today.

i'm not quite sure whether to feel unsuccessful, discontented, unproductive or 

frustrated with myself because this is a feeling i've felt before.

a feeling i am most acquainted with and most times, at the end of the day, i 

accept my lackadaisical ways. 

oh well. 

i've abandoned this blog because i ran out of my free uploading space. 

ironically, i ended up using a blog that i have to pay monthly for. 

and one i'm barely using. however, i decided to use this one as a place

for venting and haphazard jibberish. much like what i'm

doing right now and much like what i did

on xanga during college. but noone reads xanga anymore. much like

how blogger will be in a couple of years. this blog shall be my 

"unprofessional" blog. the back story to my "career."

my so-called life.

i haven't written or read much lately. 

that really bothers me. i think maybe i should start taking

public transportation so i can have time to read and think.

plus, i'm really starting to dislike driving. 

i wish it was warmer out. one of the things on my list today

was to compare the costs of cta/metra versus gas. 

dang it. 

i'm supposed to be doing laundry right now.  i even

have the laundry bag laying on the floor next to the hamper

waiting to be stuffed and taken to the washer. 

instead, i stare at it..stare at my hamper..stare at the laundry bag again..

shrug and keep writing on this thing.

i've been shooting with film more often these days

but now i've accumulated a lot of rolls that i can't afford to

develop yet.  i didn't pay my darkroom fee this month and decided recently

that i have to really setup a darkroom in the bathroom.  it's just

one of those things i keep putting off but always think about doing.

i cringe when i see the box with

my enlarger in it.

i should add that as one of the top priorities on my list.

(well, we all know how that goes..)

i just realized the sudden need for me to start ending this post. 

mainly because its counter-productive and it has served it's purpose 

for today. 

til next time.

for your upcoming 27

pieces of gaby
