TASPO

January 31, 2009

Anak ng kamote naman, I filled up a taspo card a week ago and i was expecting to receive it by now pero imbes na taspo card ang nakuha ko application padin sha grrrr X(. Sabi na eh I knew it, I should have trusted my instincts to fill up the name spaces in romaji because my alien card registration is written that way; now I need to provide an identification with with the same writting on the written form. Nakalagay lang kase dun sa new form is I have to fill up the checked boxes and there were 2 by the way, the date I filled up the form and my signature that I had to squeeze inside a very very small box, take note ha BOX! Box lang kase its originally meant for an inkan (Japanese name seal), eh ang haba ng signature ko hahaha ( cge itawa nalang naten lelz).

Sana matanggap, if not ulitin ko nalang maybe the 3rd time’s a charm. LOL!

Anyway ‘TASPO’, is an IC (Integrated Circuit) card issued only to adults age 20 above in order to use cigarette vending machines. These machines will not allow buyers to purchase cigarettes unless a taspo card has been held up to the machine and the age of the user has been verified.Sosyal!

It is not only for identification purposes but you can actually load this IC cards, so the next time you buy from vending machines all you have to do is press the button of the tabaco you want to buy, hold up your taspo card and your done. No more inserting your card like you do with atms, no more swipping, just Hold it up to the scanner and your done

And one last thing, IT’S FREE !!! bongga!

I'm kind of a laid-back person and I dont really believe in getting things the hard way. I mean if there's a better or easier way to get things done, why go through all the hoops?

Timing is everything, I don't rush things if the timing's not right, but when I have all the means to get something done I do it right away and finish it as soon as possible.

I'm not a morning person. I find my self hyper at night and drag myself to do stuff in the days. I like to do things in my own time; I hate pressure.

I've been working in japan since 2001, My japanese was good back then; Now that I've been living here since 2004 unemployed, I've been isolated with everybody else I know, beacuse of that I speak Japanese like a retarded 3 year old.

I find it hard to trust people, that's why I end up doing things all by myself and it is really exhausting. I hate this about myself.

Good Morning?

I woke early one morning The earth lay cool and still When suddenly a tiny bird Perched on my window sill, He sang a song so lovely So carefree and so gay, That slowly all my troubles Began to slip away He sang of far off places Of laughter and of fun, It seemed his very thrilling, brought up the morning sun. I stirred beneath the covers Crept slowly out of bed, Then gently shut the window And crushed his fucking head....I'm not a morning person.
