And why in the world are there no Dunkin' Donuts in Los Angeles?

I want Bavarian-filled munchkins now na! :(

BANK OF AMERICA has the worst "Customer Service" ever!

Tangina.

Random Stranger 1: Ola! (Continues to speak in Spanish.)
Me: No Español. (Smiles. Walks away.)

Random Stranger 2: What country are you from?
Me: Philippines
Random Stranger 2: Oh, I thought you were Indian.
Me: [Thinking to myself] Amoy sibuyas ba ko?!

Random Stranger 3: Are you El Salvadorian?
Me: No. I'm Filipino.
Random Stranger 3: Does it bother you when people ask if you're Latina?
Me: No. I get it a lot.
Random Stranger 3: Oh, but you look more Vietnamese than Filipino.
Me: (Confused look.)

Creepy Random Stranger 4 with a funny accent: Kumusta?
Me and my sis: (Smiles.)
Creepy Random Stranger 4 with a funny accent: You're Filipino right?
Me and my sis: Yep.
Creepy Random Stranger 4 with a funny accent: Is either one of you single and available? I'd really like a Filipino girlfriend.
Me and my sis: (Blank stares. Gets off the bus).

In the Obama cup please!

Went to get my daily dose of Cappuccino from 7-Eleven before going to work this morning, and what do I see? Blue Obama and Red McCain 20oz coffee cups! Too cute! I thought these were just fun get-into-election-mode cups, but "7-Election" actually tracks the cup sales and even have a weekly updated state by state cup votes tally here, which shows Obama currently leading McCain. Apparently, the 7-Eleven cup polls correctly predicted the Bush wins in the previous two elections. How cooool is that!

Guilty as charged!

Blogging from work can only mean one thing: I'm bored as hell. Not that I have nothing to do, I just don't have an urgent deadline. And I'm a procrastinator extraordinaire.

I actually have an office mate who does not surf at work for personal reasons _at all_. She's young and it's her first job. Yes, she's at that pa-bibo stage. I don't know how she does it. I'd die if I can't access YM or read a bit of gossip from ONTD or PEP from work.

And, yes, I will most definitely trade my coffee for Internet access.

I wanna get drunk and dance like crazy!!!
(Or get drunk in a Karaoke bar and sing Buttercup with good friends! lol. Remember Tals?)
