I was Wrong with the iPhone and Right with Lice!

My uncle made me check out my other uncle's iPhone courtesy of the lost in found.
The phone, as far as I know, was in the lost and found since October of 2008.

I was exploring the phone and got a 'if found, please return' message in it's SMS thing. I called the number and it was the owner's wife, we talked and we hung up and the owner called and we started a conversation I don't remember how it started.

In the middle of the call, I was summoned by my uncle to ask what I've done and told me stuff about the lost and found policy stuff. The phone is still on in the call.

I told him there you have it.

The next conversation was all about begging and stuff. I told him I'll do my best and try to convince them to return such.

I haven’t posted a very proper New Year's post. Apologies.

A lot of things happen at the end of this year.




Me and an Illustration on how foggy it was!



Late November: I was barred from the computer.

Early December: I realized that I may be laid off from my job in a children's apparel store because a worker I filled out for who took maternity leave went back.

Mid December: When asked to speak the truth, I told my Uncle with a flat out 'NO' that I do not like working for him. The next day (12-24, eve before Christmas), he told me that he'll be taking his bike that he lent to me. He also has 1 more bike and 3 cars; did I mention a BMW motorcycle?

Now: I'm filling up for my mom's job as a custodian (fancy word for janitor), and I'm looking for a job.

Tomorrow: I'm hoping for a better arc.

Spring 2009 of Stella McCartney
amen
[info]arelente2



Speaking of Stella McCartney, has anyone seen her creations for LeSportsac?

The company that was infamous because of TokiDoki invited Stella for a little fun. (Fall and Spring 2008)

These bags are like TokiDoki sober with dashes and splashes of Stella's subtle yet statement-making ways.

Stella McCartney for LeSportsac’s Fall 2008 Collection consists of 11 pieces of handbags and luggage which never fails to highlight the fusion of fashion mixed with function. This fall range is a change from her first collection which was full of prints, “handbags and luggage evolve from softer, more sophisticated Stella McCartney tones of earth, blues and greys, with tonal stitch details and faux leather trims”. “All fabrics are generated from 100% recycled materials, and the handtag is made from 100% recycled paper and comes in 100% recycled plastic sleeve, and the dust bag is 100% biodegradable.” Each handbag and luggage includes a metal/wood Deer charm. - nitrolicious.com


Other collaborations are with H&M (the advertising is cool!), Adidas, and Target Australia. (more here)

Recently her collections for Spring Summer 2009 consisted of laces, soft fabrics, men's tailoring and a monochromatic head to toe look (flesh tones, to stone gray, and the classic black and white). more

I Saw Mrs.Claus

NOTE: STILL NO ICONS

Does having a pair of Santa earrings makes you Mrs.Claus?

Photobucket
I don't think so.
I found the pair on the way to the gym, her plaid bolero is very interesting but those Santa earrings that are probably made out of beads are just 50%cute and 50%abomination.

If your going for a bizarre Christmas motif, go all the way with the rest of your accessories.

If you're going freaky this holiday, go all the way.  (Want any tips?)

Dear Santa...

Dear Santa,

This year I've been busy!

In September I helped [info]daniel1971 see the light (8 points). Last Monday I gave [info]tegamibachi a kidney (1000 points). Last Friday I pushed [info]ab_fab in the mud (-17 points). Last Saturday I got in line at the supermarket at the same time as someone else and I didn't yield (-8 points). Last Wednesday I gave [info]nekofuyu a wet willie, then I took it back (-5 points).

Overall, I've been nice (978 points). For Christmas I deserve a Lego set!

Sincerely,
arelente2

I got tired of the limited features in LJ and decided to call it quits... Items will remain here but will not be updated...
Some of you may not like this move of mine, but you can just watch me do it. That dosn't mean I'll abandon this. I'll still go about it every now and then.

I'm looking for a much better blog. Sorry.

Sparked by pinoyblogero, I went to use advantage of the Firefox's built in RSS news feeds and saw that Paris Hilton is returned to another 'treatment facility' rather than being what she expects a house arrest.

Hilton will stay for a few days at a treatment center at Twin Towers jail in LA for medical and psychiatric examination to determine which jail she will be sent to. She had been held at the Century Regional Detention Centre in Lynwood, California, in a special unit for celebrities,public officials, police officers and other high-profile inmates, and has so far served five days of her sentence. No details of the medical problem have been given for "privacy reasons".

Some of you may think that its unfair for years in prison with normal treatment turned to a 45-day sentence with separation from other inmates a big injustice and crime but actually, it's not.

Thats so reality, I like it )

I'm of the third kind... Why do I feel a little uncomfortable?

Recently, I have been told that the one will replace me as Dine-in [a bus boy] therefore, I will be working from 8.30Am to 9.00+PM.

Then, the trainee manager and my manager told me that someone will replace me [insert squee here], I was really happy. When I saw my replacement, SHE was new [I don't know if crew or transfer from another shop] and perky, SHE'll be the replacement they are talking about.

I was going all "are you sure?" "What?" and then I said "OK".

After a few hours of sleep [I was suppose to pay the Electric and Water Bill but it was 8 by then and the payments centers closed]. I found out that I have contradicted myself of the one thing 'we' really are proud of: Social Equality.

Even if I say that she may not be fit for the work because we have different physiques, It's like I'm degrading her of respect. People have different ways of handling and managing things things, therefore I am confident she can do it on her own [I forgot to give her the guidelines].

The feminist movement has been going on since ever. Liberal Feminist goes to the fact that social equality will be maintained by diminishing of the biological factors of sexes in socio-identity and social rights, Radical Feminist however would also argue that feminism is about ending societal domination and elitism [social classes], Modern Feminism takes a much direct approach:

"Modern feminist political activists commonly campaign for a woman's right to bodily integrity and autonomy on matters such as reproductive rights, including the right to abort, access to contraception and quality prenatal care; for protection from domestic violence; against sexual harassment and rape; for workplace rights, including maternity leave and equal pay; and against other forms of discrimination." -Wikipedia

I was somewhat disturbed to the "right to abort" thing going on. The fetus is a miniature form of a human being, therefore it's murder [Canadian government argued that the fetus is not human therefore it's not murder]..... I really don't like the abortion thing.

The Feminist movement always goes against the wishes and rules of cultural and ethnic factors, such as the glass ceiling of the Middle East that impedes women advancements in the society.... Does anyone know the burning of the women's school?

A while ago, I drank Pepsi Light in Tokyo-Tokyo in TriNoma... it was waaay better than Coca-Cola. Its crisp light taste is so heavenly for me. While I was eating there was a fashion show headed by some clothing line oblivion for me, yas it was a brand I'm not familiar of and their designs are soooo ewwish, so casual and maybe so thrift [I don't have the problem with the thrift thing]. Clothing for me should be artistically correct and correctly carried. In short, we should dress to impress and to express, but mostly to express. I just don't feel that fashion show, for starters, the music is way bad and the stage and lighting has no relevance to be mentioned, plus the clothes are so simply simple. It might be confusing but to my world there are kinds of simple, one is simply simple [plain black shirt] and simply good [plain shirt with good cuts and stitches]. It's hard to understand but the things I saw did not take my heart away like some would do.

Thanks & Congratulations for Pinoy Blogging Society for having a new and revamped layout [IM SO LOVING IT!]

I need an opinion on you guys to see whats the best bookstore for you.

National Bookstore [been there, bought something] - totally generic if you might say. In the TriNoma branch, there was that red and white thing again thats going on like on all it's branches.... theres no life in it except the bestsellers are there.....

Power Books [been there, snooped around] - found great selection of books that you can't buy from NB [hello! If they copied NB then thats suicide]. Very rare selection, especially the fashion history books: Dolce and Gabbana, Yhoji Yamamoto, Donna Karen New York, also found "Confessions of an Heiress" by Paris Hilton. [Note that "an heiress" is correct because heiress is pronounces as: ey-ress]



Books for Less [been there, snooped around] - found a much greater AND CHEAPER selection of books ever! The only thing is their second hand, but can you imagine a hardbound for 300php! (about 6USD)

My aunt also recommends Fully Booked [Never been there] - she claims that they have a good selection and good ambiance, they also serve coffee and pastries there.... Thats all I know.

Once there was a man who is a Personal Manager of a publication house.
He was ordered by the higher ups to fire the old workers to make salary for the new and fresh blood.
He quickly refused the order.
He resigned to give the old employees their salary.
Then he drove a school bus.
