    Food. Cafe. POSERS! Yuck!

    Posted by jemzky at 11:34 PM on January 3, 2006.

    So what’s really the difference between all the food chains, besides all of their foods containing MSG (an ingredient which has been proven to cause cancer)?

    They all taste like heaven!

    I would like to express my gratitude to the following fast food chains…

    1. Mc Donalds – for their chicken, Oreo McFlurry, french fries, and 8MCDO (8-6236) delivery service.
    2. Jollibee – for their crispylicious and jucylicious *laughs* chicken, jolly shake and sweet spaghetti

    This ad is so cheezy. They should think of something better... ugh.

         3.     Chowking – for their pork siomai, beef brisket, and Chao Fan


    Café Café Café.

    (shift topic)


     


     


     

    Everyone (pertaining to those from class A, B and C) is familiar with Starbucks huh? How bout Gloria Jean's and Seattle's Best? And Mocha Blends? How about our very own local Figaro? Cafes are so so in these days. They’re everywhere!!! Malls, gas stations (Petron, Caltex, Shell, etc.), office buildings and some are even located within secluded areas.

    Now… to whom are they really supposed to cater to?

    My assumptions are…

    -         Coffee addicts who drink an average of 2-3 coffees in one sitting
    -             Probably people who would want to relax and have a few sip before proceeding to what they’re supposed to do
    -             Friends or group of individuals who would want to gather together (to backstab their other friends) while enjoying a Grande or Venti sized Mocha Latte, Iced White Chocolate (my favorite!!!) or Caramel Macchiato
    -             Loners (Oh… I do know how you guys feel! Been there, done that)

    And who else?

    **RANT MODE**


    Social Climbers and Posers who save their whole allowance for the entire week just so they can afford a puny beverage costing around Php60 ($1.10 USD).

    This type of people will stay from dusk ‘til dawn  in the cafe and you’ll still notice that their cups aren’t even half full (or half empty if you’re a pessimist) yet!

    That’s really pathetic!

    Some of these whackos even wear their “best” outfits whenever they go to such cafes. With the short skirt, an inch-thick makeup, and a tiangge-type-cheap-hunting-cap that they probably stole. The whole ensemble makes them look like a cheap slut, considering that they try so hard. Not to mention them being linguistically abusive. They try to mix the Filipino and English language to make them sound (UGH!) cute! And can anyone please tell me what’s with that FAUX ACCENT!?

    “Your attempt is futile! Live within your means! Go make instant coffee or something… that’s way cheaper! It’ll help you save up so you and your family can buy more rice and viands for dinner!”

    Reminds me of the song Great Pretender by Buck Ram and Big spender by Dorothy Fields… *laughs*

    *COOLS DOWN*

    What should the verdict be?

    I suggest mental and physical torment ala Fear Factor!

    Enough of them…

    I’m still wondering if it’s true that distilled water has healing abilities. If you know anything about this, I’d like to hear more about it. Meanwhile, I’m going limit my liquid intake to distilled water only. I’ll keep my site updates regarding its effectiveness.

    Corruption.. so fun!

    Posted by jemzky at 10:56 PM on January 3, 2006.

    The people are responsible for it. We shouldn’t address our shitty rages to the term “government” rather, we should take note that it is not the government, but the “government officials”.

    Corruption. What’s new???

    Why does it even exist?

    I think it creates some kind of balance. If there are philanthropists such as Bill Gates who donates $27 Billion, then surely there are those who take so much more (yes, I really had to exaggerate that) than what they deserve. Sounds unfair huh? I find it totally unfair myself! That’s exactly the reason why I buy pirated DVDs… so they wouldn’t be able to get any tax from it. *laughs* 

    I’d like to share some annoying facts regarding some of the politicians from my country (Philippines).

    Before I start with the trash talk, I’d like to say that I wouldn’t be mentioning names… for safety purposes. I wouldn’t want to get assassinated, wouldn’t I?

    There’s this polygamous politician who thinks of himself as a hot stuff (Hrrmm..). Creating babies day after day. And he even promotes this act!

    “Oh please do serve as a role model to the youth. We wouldn’t want to overpopulate our country wouldn’t we? In 100 years, 50% of the country’s population will be composed of your great grandchildren!”

    Adding up to this *hobby* of his, he also tried to pass a bill concerning the legality of his surname being passed/used by ALL his illegitimate children (and grandchildren). Talk about selfish motives…

    I also would want to give my opinion regarding this politician who doesn’t know how to speak English. Not being able to speak English isn’t much of the deal but suggesting that the whole constitution be translated so he’d be able to understand it?? That’s extremely outrageous (redundant)! You shouldn’t have run in the first place… pfffft! You’re better off as an actor… (give away hint)

    “Please… no more uneducated-y-illiterate actor/politician. If you want to run for politics, you should be nationalistic and not narcissistic. With that statement, I rest my case.”

    -= PEACE! =-

    Those who find my entry very offensive: These are just my opinion. You have yours. I know. Respect mine and I’ll do so with yours. I’m not trying to ridicule anyone, just voicing out my thoughts here.

    Money.. Luv it!

    Posted by jemzky at 10:04 AM on January 2, 2006.

    It's a new year once again. I've celebrated it 18 times already... i'm starting to get tired of it.

    Was browsing earlier... my fave site ofcourse! Forbes.com! Heheh. Featuring the latest billionaires... Damn! They're such hoarders. How can they keep most of the world's wealth to themselves?? Woe to those who live in supreme-poverty (ironic)

    Since the forbes site is so slow if you're on a dial-up (wooohoo... thanks to DSL I don't have to suffer such excruciating pain), I'll just post a puny info about the noveau (most of them are) rich bastard here.

    The pics are in charecatures... they're really cute!

    Who's the richest bastard??...well, it's obvious! we have... ofcourse...

    Bill Gates

    Owner of Microsoft, world's leading software manufacturer. A very small amount of $46.5 Billion. Yes. He's worth more than my country's (Philippines) debt to World Bank. I also read that he's the world's biggest philantrophist, devoting $27 Billion to good deeds. OMG! Bill, if you're reading this, please donate your money to my country so as for the Filipino people to live in harmony and propserity through a debt-free environment.

    I want you to take note of this: Marital Status: Married , 3 children :Harvard University, Drop Out - Doesn't that give you that sense of hope? Hope that you can still become the world's wealthiest man even if you're a drop out? *relief* (oh no no.. i'm no drop out.. *laughs*)

    3 Children huh? Wouldn't it be cool to be one of them? Inheriting $46.5b/3 (you do the math)?? I feel sad for them though. Perhaps they're not even allowed to leave the house due to kidnapping threats. Awwww. Do they have a social life besides the boring get-togethers of the rich and famous(wannabes)? Have they tried bar hopping? Do they even know what poverty means? Have they experienced washing the dishes? Do they know how it feels to walk in the park?

    Some things can never be bought.

    Yuck. Drama. Hate it!

    So...? Who cares if they can't do those boring and third-worldy labor?? Their life is still better than the ones who's got nothing.

    Blessed are the rich ones. *cheers*

    A must have!

    Posted by jemzky at 03:07 AM on January 2, 2006.

    I'm really not into cars. I'm currently driving a not-so-new-yet-still-ok car and i'm not planning to buy one since i'm not earning yet. I was checking out things that I'd buy once I get my business up and running... so I ended up looking at these heavenly cars from Jaguar.

    I'm not the show off type nor the I-want-everyone's-attention type. But I would love to have the latest Jaguar 2006 XKR Convertible!!! I was gazing dramatically at the pic... until I saw this... $87,995. Well.. Goodbye Jaguar... it's been nice knowing you. They have other models though. The prices range from $60-70k. Once I earn enough shit i'll get me one of those. *wait wait wait*

    2006 XKR Convertible - $87,995

    ME LIKEY! *drools* Adorable! Just the way I like it. I luv the color, the design.. the... urr.. everything! I don't really care about the mph crap. Who would?? It's a Jaguar. DOH!

    2006 XKR Coupe - $82,995

    Awww. This one's black. Silver would've been so much better. $5k less than the first one... such a great deal!

    Look at that interior! Amazing! I'd love to push all those buttons. *laughs*

    2006 X-TYPE 3.0 - $32,995

    A total no-no! The cheapest model to date.. I don't like it. So plain. A red one would've been better!

    Movie Maniac!

    Posted by jemzky at 02:20 AM on January 2, 2006.

    I don't really like watching movies so whenever I wanna see one, I buy pirated DVDs. It costs around Php60-P80 ($1.50 USD). There's actually a huge difference between watching it in theatres and buying a pirated dvd. Theatres cost Php150 ($3 USD)... not counting my sis who likes watching movies with me. So that'll be around Php300 ($6 USD). See the difference? We can save a whole lot just by buying fakies! Who cares if we're not helping the economy. We're in a third world country with crappy/corrupt politicians (not all,ayt?) who gets our taxes for their personal pleasure anyway.

    Let's see...

    King Kong

    Haha. He's hilarious! He looks so much like someone I know! I can  just imagine how he smells. Doesn't that make you wanna puke? *laughs*

    Hmm... King Kong is one ugly beast! hahaha. No offense to all the King Kong fans out there. He just reminds me of a friend who we took a pic off while eating. God! I wouldn't wanna mention his name, he might kill me (if he doesn't, his friends might).

    The film made it look like Kong's an emotional monkey (or gorilla, whatever). Maybe he is.. who knows? The producer or scriptwriter, maybe.

    The whole show reminded me of Godzilla with a mix of Jurassic Park and.. Flinstones? I got shocked though when I saw the dinosaurs. The dinos were so realistic! Everything was realistic... Hollywood is such a film-god!

    A message to the Philippine Movie Industry: "Oh so please adapt to the vast changing film-making-world. We are so left behind. Have you compared your Mulawin, Exodus, Encantadia (Philippine's supah-dupah low tech shows/movies with obviously fake effects) and other supposed-to-be modern movies to their King Kong? Or even Aeon Flux?"

    Such comparison is sad to hear.

    I'll end this King Kong bit by tackling the phrase I heard from the movie... "Beauty killed the beast". Let us be original. Please. Are you trying to make another statement such as "Great power comes with blah blah blah"? The phrase thingy is so passe.

    Memoirs of a Geisha

    "Zhang Ziyi.. Epitome of Asian Beauty"... so true.

    I definitely love this one. Zhang Ziyi did great! Some scenes were quite draggy though.

    It's really cool since I was able to watch this show even if i'm from Philippines. It's not supposed to be shown here til Febuary something so I tried downloading the whole video using Bearshare (a whooping 1.4GB!). I luv bearshare. Fast download. I got a 1.5mbps connection so 1.4GB took roughly 3 hours considering the net traffic.

    Oh yeah.. about the movie... So many great scenes. Some were funny, others were quite serious.

    She had to perform inorder for the people (wealthy oldies) to bid for her virginity. Hmm.. I think. Not sure though. If so, it's gross. Isn't that prostitution? And to think the one who bidded for her was an ugly old doctor. EeeIyyuucchK!!

    They look a lot like each other (Zhang Ziyi and Gong Li). There's even this scene wherein I was confused of who Zhang Ziyi was (with all the geishaish makeup on).

    Rob Marshall (director of Memoirs of a Geisha) is a genius. He turned a novel into a geat movie. He saved me a lot of months by doing so. I'm not the bookworm type and I don't read much so thank God such movie was made.

    This is the real/original book by Arthur Golden. I'll never read it! Boredom begone!!!

    That's all for now. Why is this tabulas java thing so slow?? What the hell is wrong with it. *rant rant* Oh and I have to get some sleep. I'll be driving early tom (hmm that's later for me).
