Eto yung pinalit nya kay Diane Ventura (Pupil's Manager and Eon Drake's Mom).

Her name is Andi Trinidad. She works as the Advertising Account Executive ng MEGA Publishing. Jerry Tiu, Chris Tiu's father, heads/owns the company.

I saw her at the book launch of Against the Light Pupil's Tour Diary.

As I have observed from somewhere I don't want to mention here, Ely is very very happy in Andi's arms. I can see that their personalities jive. I'm happy for Master Ely. After heart attacks, deaths, and all the distress from 2009, someone has brought a new vibe in his very public life.

Sup brother?

Recently, I took an IQ exam over facebook. It says that I am way above average, my score is somewhere below 140. I did not publish it on my facebook page because of the following reasons:

1. I don't want to look like I'm boasting.

2. IQ is just a measure of how CAPABLE you are of learning. Therefore if you don't use your brain, you might be capable of learning a lot but your knowledge is ZERO. Being intelligent and having a high IQ is a different thing.

3. As Malcom Gladwell put it in his book Outliers, once a person is above a certain threshold, IQ is not anymore important. This is where Emotional Quotient and Social Intelligence comes in.



I am happy that at least I am blessed with an above average IQ. However, I find myself lacking so much in EQ.

First, I am very dependent on others. If my classmates (not necessarily my friends) aren't studying for our exam, as much as I wanted to study, I simply can't. I don't exactly know the reason why. Yeah it sucks.

Second, a lot of people do not like me. I'm not being emo here, that is the truth. I am sensitive enough to know that it isn't easy for people to like me. Of course I have friends. But most of the people around me aren't happy with me. It's just my personality that is so different and incompatible with the majority. I know it's not entirely my fault. But being different and not going with the flow has its disadvantages.

I always feel bad whenever I feel/realize/know that someone doesn't like me. Again, I don't know why. I stand with what I believe in. I don't care about what others will think about me. But I can't stop feeling really sad about it. Not the usual sad my dear. As in sad talaga.


As with social intelligence, I think I'm average. I hope in time I'll be able to boost my EQ..

Hello friends!

Whew! A new blog for me!

Oh well, this is how my day went..

Woke up late for work. Luckily, I was still able to go to work on time. Damn, working from 8 to 5am is very tiring. Especially if you're doing the same activity for 3 days straight for 8 hours a day!!

Geez. I hope I'll be doing something different tomorrow. I don't mind if a task is too easy or hard, I JUST WANT SOMETHING DIFFERENT!

This makes me think that I would not be successful if I will end up being an employee in the future. I promised myself that I will be part of Forbes Top 80 Richest Filipino. I know putting up your own business is like jumping off a cliff, but I can't seem to stand doing the same activity for 8 hours a day, 7 days a week. Yeah the complexity of every task changes. But hell, it's still the same banana! You go to work at 8am, work using the PC for 99.9% of the time, eat lunch for one hour, stare at the monitor once more, go home dizzy. Look for a stress reliever. Sleep. Repeat. Urgh. I dont know how else can I make a living if can't stand this MonoVirus.

This makes me envious of Musicians and Radio DJs. Yeah some amateur musicians/DJs don't earn that much, but still, they enjoy what they are doing! And the money that rolls in is just a bonus! I hope I can find a job that I am very passionate about! Well I think there aren't any out there.


Oh... I'm still thinking what will happen to me in the future.. I hope I can do something about it. I don't want to be trapped.
