Different Speller

Millie Jane just tried to take credit for my blog name. PUHHHHLLLEEAAASEEE. I came up with that all by my own self. Anyways she even spells it a different way... if she had her way it would be nolisirishtsismis.blogspot.com. Like since when did filipinos start using the silent 'T'? I prefer not to spell it that way, its just dumb looking. Afterall, when my mom says Tsunami, she says "Tuus-nami".

Nice try jane... nice try. That just doesnt tsound quite right.

And for all my white readers and other non-flip readers, or flips that dont know tagalog at all (you know who you are, Jill), chismis means gossipsss... Chit-chat. AKA, what you do when you play Mahjong.

And yes, its tsuppose to be pluralized... we do dat kind ob ting.

okay... im going to take enap.

Statistics

Tallys for the day:

Number of blokes I saw today with their collar up: 3.
Number of times Ive contemplated putting my collar up: 0.
Number of people with their hair spiked to the middle, mohawk look: 4.
Number of years past by since the hair spiked in the middle was considered cool: 2.
Number of times the 20 year old logistics adminstrative assistant, Jo, came by my desk to chat: 1.
Number of times I had to remind myself that I should not count that type of thing: 20
Number of times I checked the internet today while working: 3 (a new world record low!)

And the most important Tally: number of pairs of shoes purchased in the last week: 2. This is what happens when you open your wallet for a major purchase such as a car. It remains open to spend on other things, as well. Important things like shoes, and track jackets.

Didnt get my car today though. Im pissed out; so pissed out, Im roundhouse kicking at thin air.

Probably tomorrow.

Top of the Pops

Please download these songs. The Streets - "Dry your eyes, Mate" and Rachel Stevens - "Some girls". These are the two latests songs Ive downloaded for my bestfriend here in Ireland, iPod. I know what youre thinking, Rachel is the hot chick from S Club 7. There are only two possible reactions to this news: Guys will download the song faster than Ben Johnson running to the toilet after unknowingly eating moldy cantalope. Then they will go to google.com and type in 'Rachel Stevens'. Girls will roll their eyes, and rant that she cant sing and has hair extensions, and what is she anyways? she doesnt look British, then make the obvious comparison to Posh Spice, and rave some more about how she cant sing, either, then get more mad, because she has David Beckham... then go to fridge to eat some chocolate ice cream, while listening to Justin Timberlake CD. Whatever... just download em. The Streets at the very least. Youll be different...

A Chain of events that was started today is about to take place... received my Provisional Drivers Licence from the "Irish Man", came in the mail today. Heres the chain.... Licence -> obtains permission to apply for my full Irish licence -> allows me to purchase car insurance -> allows me to purchase a car -> allows to pick up the car I made a deposit on 1.5 weeks ago -> Noli joins the Audi family.

This all happens tomorrow... all while I should be at work working. And did I mention I dont pay taxes? I live in bizzaro world.

Im audi...

First posting

Ive been meaning to start a blog for a while now, ever since I moved to Ireland in late May. Now its started, exactly 2 months after I arrived (would of been sooner, but I insisted on wireless broadband, and then after my incessantly childish pouting suceeded, I religiously procrastinated). No definite reason for the blog really, but Ill be posting thoughts, crappy ones and good ones, and pictures and whatever else I feel like. The only requirement is that it has to be kewl... I dont want to bore anyone. Otherwise youd never come back... and that would kinda suck. Nevermind, unappreciative.

So ladies, gentlemen, cats, dogs, little children, and cute salt water fish... come back and come often mang! Ill post as often as my will allows me.
