Self-pity, anyone?


I’m a better reader than a writer. That’s why I can name plenty of people who can write better than me. When I chance upon a piece of work that makes my jaw drop, I want to cry like a baby, quit my job, and do something else for a living.


...Like flip burgers and fry fries in McDonald’s.


Sometimes, I feel like my position in the paper is wasted on me. Don’t get me wrong, okay. I love my job. It’s just that there are times when it feels like it should’ve gone to someone more deserving. There are times when it feels like I write for a living because I’ve been at the right place, at the right time, nothing more than just dumb luck.


Sheesh, and there goes my self-esteem.

I can’t believe Rob and Amber got eliminated in TAR! I was looking forward to talking to them but not this early! Not after becoming Team Number One for the past three legs.


I wasn’t really expecting them to win. TAR had always edited them as the villain, and the producers never make the audience hate the winners of the race. TAR is a subtle propaganda to brainwash the viewers that the good always win over the evil in the end. Karma exists. Hallelujah!


If someone as distasteful as Flo comes their way, they make sure that they portray the other half as extremely likeable. Didn’t we all said, “Poor Zach, he deserved the million dollars because he need the money to run as far away from Flo as he could”?


Plus, the air time Romber had been enjoying was a little clue that they won’t be in the Final Three. Using the Air Time Theory, I suspect that it’s the Beauty Queens, Teri and Ian, Team Guido, Cha Cha Cha and Eric and Danielle who would be on the top five. I’m rooting for Guidos and Cha Cha Cha. I like gay couples, shoot me.


Man, no more Rob and Amber. That would take awhile getting used to. It’s up to Chmirna to stir up some trouble and saving this season from infernal bore sessions. More bitching around, more cab-stealing, more lies!
