Anti-Facebook

Ayoko ng facebook. Akala ko cool mag facebook. No offense facebook die hard fans, pero Facebook Sucks. Masyadong komplikado. masyadong madaming applications, at kinakain talaga ako ng lahat ng activities doon.

Kung magaadd ng friend palang ang gulo na...

Friendster:

click add as friend,
itype and email o apelyido (minsan di na kailangan),
tapos na-add mo na yung friend mo

Multiply:
click add as contact,
ilagay ang relasyon nyong dalawa, at
optional na mag-iwan ng mensahe

Facebook: akampucha.
Add as friend.
View friends?
__ Mutual Friends
Do you know people that might be friends with her?
add a personal message?
Do you want to recommend friends to her?
Do you want to flirt her?
Send Flowers?
You have just added ____ as a friend,
click here to write on Her wall,
click here to check out her profile,....

oh Jesus Christ.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.. hindi ba pwedeng add nalang tapos ok na?!


Eto pa... kapag pupunta ka naman sa newsfeed, makikita mo naman parang halos lahat nalang ng aktibidades ng kung sino sinong mga tao... "Karl Edejer says face book sucks", "Jeseth MArie De Vera is pissed off with the laundry lady"

hindi lang yun, yung shoutouts na yan, may nagcocomment pa jan, at nagcocomment pa sila sa mga comments ng may comments ng may comments?

Eto pa... magbblog ka na nga lang kailangan meron kang mga taong i-no-note. para saan? hindi ko alam mehn. Magkaiba ata ang note at blog? at bulletin? at Gossip? malupit pag gossip, kasi pwede kang magiwan ng impormasyon sa kakilala mo at anonymous ka.

Napakakumplikado, sobra. kung sino mang unang magfafacebook ay paniguradong maooverwhelm sila sa mga pangyayari, pero syempre eventually masasanay sila... Ako? hindi. hindi ako masasanay... Tinry kong mahalin ang Facebook sa pamamagitan ng pagpatol sa lahat ng appications niya and i ended up sa kung saan saan mga site at di ko man lang naaprove yung application na yun.

Nakakairita na nga ang mga nag-iinvite sayo tapos irerefer mo pa mga friends mo sa kanya, pero mas nakakairita ang mga applications: Send Good Karma (icclick mo yung kaibigan mo para may mapuntang good karma sa kanya.),  merong namang Fan Request, tinry kong magclick ng isa, yung "I AM A Filipino" , kala ko once na naclick mo na, ok na, pero hindi, andami pang pinapapindot. ipaparefer pa sa friends, tapos ipaparate pa yung application na yun, tapos magrerefer pa sila ng ibang applications: Are you a fan of McDonald's French Fries? OMG. it never ends.

Idamay na din ang poke. "Abi poked you | Poke back" What the hell? Masaya bang nagpipindutan kayo online? siguro pag sa tunay na buhay maiintindihan ko pa, pero, online? ewan. At nang may nauso pang iba: ang Super Poke.  anong ginagawa nito? hindi ko alam. di ko pinatulan, siguro hindi lang poke ang magagawa mo, pwedeng Mega Poke kung saan buong braso mo na yung ipapangPapansin mo sa ka facebook mo. Or buong palad mo imbes na daliri lang ang ipapanhawi mo sa kaibigan moi. ewan. di ko magets. di ko kinakaya.

napapagod akong magfacebook. sapat na ang kasimplehan ng friendster at multiply sakin. masaya akong pag naguupload ako ng pictures, di ako nagtatag ng mga tao, magnonote at nalalaman ng buong facebook community. masaya akong kahit papano merong pribadong bagay pa rin sa akin, hindi yung pag heartbroken ka, mei mga nakalaang emoticons at status changes sa facebook mo na angkop sa nararamdaman mo. Mas maganda kung may misteryo at di mo nakikita ang lahat...

Pero hypocrite ako, meron akong facebook. Ang hypocrite ko, para akong si Ra___. Tinatangkilik ko pero naiinis ako. Para akong gago. Kahit papano tinatangkilik ko ito, pero sana magsawa sila agad at mag multiply nalang sila.

Naniniwala akong may pag-asa pa para magbalik-loob ang mga tao sa multiply. masaya ang multiply.  Oo maganda ang interface ng facebook at mga gimik at kung anu ano pang pauso. pero para sakin ay masyado nang nakakaumay. nakakapurga. friendster na blogpage na multiply na YM combined? parang ok pakinggan no? nah. ayoko. haha.

at malamang ndi ka magcocomment dito dahil busy ka sa facebook account mo. nyehehe.


watch the vid i posted sa comments.. it's worth it., hehe

Feb Fourteen

I said I'll never write about this. But, here i am. haha. I can't fight the itch and i want to get over this nice and quick:

I never liked V-day.

I don't remember any good heartjumping thing that happened to me, or any romantic chuvachuchu crap i felt on any Feb 14 in the entire timeline of my life so far. But to be clear, I'm not sourgraping., im not bitter. I'm just, uhm, uncomfortable...and I'm just expressing what I've observed. This day is just overrated, and I feel like im not that Valentine's type of guy. Why? Because Roses are triple the price, traffic's a killer, and in the end I always end up sleeping alone. Sometimes happy, sometimes wondering, sometimes just staring, and last year i was probably studying. or sleeping.

Oh. How could I forget last year's valentine's anyway? Went to Dangwa for roses to suprise someone, and right when I bought the roses, she just said nakasakay na siya sa FX pauwi. It's not her fault, of course. Duh, she doesnt know I'm to suprise her, bat nya pipigilan ang sarili nyang sumakay ng FX diba?... The roses I were holding that time were then equally distributed to some random female friends. Loss of one, Gain of others i guess. Close, but still not enough to qualify as a good Vday.

I remember Jhun 3 years ago being bitter about it to that point that he doesnt want to mention the word. I remember meeting my girlfriend in the main building and i tried my best to pull her to our Science Week exhibit but she said she has to go... to watch a movie with her friends.  I remember staying at LSQC for the whole day to help my bestfriend JC to prepare for something for his girlfriend. I remember just watching the sunset at Zambales sunset alone.

You see, I could go on and on... and on. I could enumarate a lot of rants regarding this day, and yet, still deny that I am bitter. Haha. How stupid? I could go on forever... but I know someday in the future, there will be one V-day that will defy this losing streak, this curse, this dry spell. Vday has been this same this year. But I know this cycle will change.I'll try Maybe on the next, or maybe next next. Nevertheless I'm still hopeful. Hopeful that I'll one day watch the Vday sunset with someone, that the flowers ill buy will land on her arms from mine, hopeful that I'll go home late because I had a date on valentine's. That one day, I am to blog and post something sweet and positive and worth posting in multiply.

I am always hopeful that I'll one day become a successful surgeon, a cool dad, blablabla... I might as well also shine a glimmer of hope of a better Heart Life. It's probably time i stop beating myself too much.

So that's it. This Feb 14 blog. I still cant move in the words "Happy" and "Valentines" together but at least they're inching in closer every year. And I'm not worried that they wont. Because I know someday, I'll have my kick-ass Vday. I trust this proccess. I trust life. And I trust Love.

as for now, I'll probably just be drinking this year's V-day till i sleep...

...Alone.
