- I really should keep my fone attached to my body at all times. I misplaced my cellphone 3 times this week, managing to leave it in the MRT restroom, a colleague's car, and in a coffee shop. Amazing enough, it was always returned to me. That pretty much restored my faith in humanity.

- I hate all those Tagalized versions of foreign hit songs. Ms. Ganda is really raking it in with her versions of Bleeding Love, With you, and whoever sang that often-played Tagalog Insomnia. C'mon people... you seem to be a very creative lot, why not just write your own songs.

- It's not a good idea to run several applications at the same time even though your RAM is 2 gb. Like doing a full script [dialogues and karaoke] using the HD raw video with your notepad open for your QC notes, another script open for comparison of dialogues from the previous episode, and then suddenly deciding to watch an episode of Long Vacation while having a QC break. After several days of doing it, my laptop decided it was too much and decided to take a much needed rest. The screen just froze, so my kneejerk reaction was to restart it. Windows won't load afterwards, no matter if I try rebooting it using the safe mode or the last known good configuration settings. My first thought was, "Oh no! [info]yenchan69will kill me, fersure." My Koishite Akuma QC was already due and I was already in the last 10 minutes of the video when this happened. I was on a forced subbing hiatus for 4 days... man, it was hell. Talk about a subbing detox. I got the laptop back yesterday. According to the technician, it has around 400 mb of bad sectors. I didn't know what that meant, but I was told not to strain the laptop too much. Oh well... I still think it was that jinxed KA04 script that did it, hahaha.

- Preparing meals for your family, even with fully stocked fridgeand pantry, is hard. My mum went on a spur-of-the-moment Hongkong trip with her friends for 4 days, leaving me in-charge of cooking while she's gone. It would've been easier if she gave me a meal plan, like cook this for dinner and this for breakfast. But all she told me was, "Bahala ka na dyan." [It's all up to you] Oh God!!! It was hell, trying to figure out what to do with all those stuff in the fridge. And the actual cooking... I had to go home straight from work just so I could cook dinner for all of us. And then prepare the stuff for breakfast before I go to sleep. And then do it all over again the next day. I now have a new appreciation for mothers out there. [A corollary of this would be, I learned that it is actually possible for me to come home straight from work, instead of hanging out somewhere first. And doing that saved me a lot of money.]

- I love smap... or rather, I love Kimura Takuya [oh wait... I think I realized that a few weeks back already] I saw their latest cm for Softbank and I must've watched it 5 times in a row before even looking at the other smap members, hahaha.

- Teriyaki Boy's Philly Cheese Steak Roll will make you forget all your problems, at least while eating it.


Here's one of the songs on constant repeat in my player. It's one of my favorite songs from Long Vacation.

Under the Moonlight - Cagnet

Sorry to spam your f-lists but I got sidetracked by that KAT-TUN concert fancam that I forgot the reason why I wanted to post in the first place.

I'm doing the timing for the TimeLesSub team that will sub Mr. Brain!!!

[confetti] [applause] [tears]

I wanted so much to post about it before, since I really really really want to work on this drama...so much that if encoding is the only spot open for me, I'll go ahead and learn encoding in 2 days just to in that team. But God probably thought that I should be given a break since I can't watch KAT-TUN live in concert and is already becoming bipolar from reading all those fanreports - all giggly and giddy one second, downright depressed the next.

To cut the long story short, [info]yenchan69 , the PL of this project, remembered my spazzing over Kimura Takuya several posts back and asked me if I'm interested in timing this series. HELL, YEAH! I was so happy that I wasn't even able to send a coherent reply to her email. It was all, "Yes, of course, count me in!"

So there, this just shows how everything turns out alright. Now if only I could figure out how to watch that concert...

OT [Occupational Therapist ]1: Did anybody see ___'s chart?

PT [Physical Therapist] 1: My back hurts...

PT 2 [aka Yo]: I wonder if my typesets are ready...

SP [Speech Pathologist] 1: Where's my WAB kit?

OT 2: Did anybody see the RGR tree?

PT 2 [aka Yo]: I'm hungry...

While everybody's busy with wrapping up their treatment sessions, I'm usually preoccupied with:

(a) subbing tasks

(b) where I'll have early dinner

Maslow sure got it right. Self-preservation needs above everything else. So that means, food and subbing for me, lol...

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

Speaking of early dinner, I was able to hook up with Teacher Aira, one of our OTs, and we had dinner at this amazing place - Banapple :)



I got introduced to this place when some SP interns gave the SPs in my clinic a Banoffee pie as a thank you present. Their banoffee pie is one of the best pies I've had...not too sweet and you can still taste the bananas. Aside from pies and cheesecakes, they also serve entrees and pasta. Too bad they don't have a wide range of teas to go with your pies, just green tea and decaf tea, which wasn't available when I went there. Their shop in Tomas Morato is pretty small so be sure to come early if you want to get a good table.

Banoffee and more... )

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

JDrama season's almost half-over. We've released 4 episodes of Kami no Shizuku already...thank God. No hitches with those releases, thanks to my team. I think ep.5's going to be delayed a bit though. I hope the fans will wait for that release patiently. KnS story is starting to pick up, too bad the ratings are just going down. Mei-chan is also getting better and better. All you Takeru fans should watch out for Ep.6  :)

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

One last story before I end this post: When I got home last night, I found out that my house was totally taken over by the japanese entertainment industry:

- Bernie was watching KAT-TUN Queen of Pirates concert at the living room

- Louanne was listening to Arashi in her room

- Mum was listening to Lar'c~en~Ciel in her room

What is this world coming to?

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

Since I don't know how to end this post again with some random stuff:

Thank you, [info]amane_nakashima  for the stuff you gave me [yeah, feed my JE addiction]

Thank you, [info]kimmyxfleur , for that wonderful KAT-TUN moodtheme.

Thank you to the various people who made my new icons [Kame! Haruma! Takeru! *dies*]
