Softcore Rant
Hehe. Napa-update tuloy ako ng wala sa schedule. Negativity. Always the strong element that never fails to push me to write anew anything. Virtually anything. Monday, November 5, 2007. You shall be remembered all throughout. --> First and foremost, Migraine. My left temple kept throbbing up until the last minute. It felt like my heart kept pumping energy to the thousands of jackhammers inside my head. And my great capillaries, I swear, would have grown into arteries, actual size. I hope it's not tumor. And if it is, splendid relief. Death is most welcome.--> Secondly, Insomnia. This great friend I've thought for months, and what a heap of joy to have realized that it had left me for someone more worthy. But no. The customer is back. With a vengeance. Sleep arrives at the most untimely moment, say, over dinner? It wouldn't be an exagerration to note that the soup[this time, the dreadful tinola], splattered over me when I reached for it from the end of the dining table. It could pass for stupidity, but no, I'll blame it for Insomnia. After 3am, it arrives, like an expected thief of the night, stashing away my precious sleep.-->Thirdly, no reunion with HS friends. Tsk. Everyone's busy, and I'm busy catching up sleep during the day. Or playing PC games. Or reading this novel. --> Next, this I wouldn't elaborate more. This is a secret. Hehe. Pero, nakakarelate ako sa'yo. Ok lang yan. You are goddamn honest, and I can't be like that. Especially in that aspect. Really a sensitive one. Haha! I'll do it. Focus. This is a new beginning.Business.--> The PSE trading this day all the more provided me the grimace. And I thought the main index would rally over the half percentage point cut made by the Fed. That's hefty, ok? Profit taking must be the culprit. I mean, the bourse could've made some edging over the long holiday, plus window-dressing. Companies would be posting strong corporate figures for 3rd quarter I assume, and these should be more than enough reason for a rally. --> The Peso is at 43.55 per dollar. That's great news. At almost 12% appreciation, we are just behind the Indian Rupee as Asia's Top Performing currency. We could topple them. We shall.--> The sad part. Oil, and crude, in the next few days, if the situations worsen, would breach $100 a barrel. That's oil crisis for us. It's already at $95-$96. I just hope it would plummet back to just $70-$80. An already high oil price would dampen our growth. We are aiming for at least 7% GDP for 2007. Hay. Sad news. Sad news. I'm just a little depressed. Daming excuses, no?

Agglutination
The day started out with me almost giving up on almost everything. Iniisip ko na lang na matapos yung araw, and Good Heavens, ok na. As in! The morning, noon and early afternoon totalled a great disaster, and I was on the verge of leaping out of the borders of my sanity. I remember walking along Pedro Gil and Agoncillo, back and forth, and taking a jeepney ride to Faura because I was at my low then, and I couldn't contain the pressure. I kept on thinking, even though I already have in my hand my finished output. Circumstances prevented me to pass the original, brought about by the loss of the fucking USB. It's late in the afternoon when I finally met head on with probably good luck, and some good strike. I got the grade I didn't expect to get. Which was higher. Haha! Ayun. I quickly went to the PGH chapel to show my appreciation.The day was rather odd. I was busy sorting out things inside my head, but it seems they have gotten themselves some strong roots. Sometimes, I think of empanelling a grand jury to help me decide on these issues. Literally, it kills me. But you know, it's kinda weird. Being killed this way, it's blissful. Reeeaally blissful.One thing. It changed my outlook. I thought once you just fall for it. But then, what do you know. I'm climbing onto it. Full speed.*Stock market and Philippine Peso: At 7 year-highs! Yey!Labels: -ber, Confusions, Resurgences, Thoughts, tracking the stock market ang hobby..
Why do we keep on Investing?
Siya. Sige. Bahala na nga muna. Wag na muna mag-isip. Nerve endings,whaever. Hehe. Bahala na. Mahirap talaga pag naubusan ako ng gold coins ng katuwaan. Problema, di ko alam kung saan ko nagasta. Pahirapan na namang mag-ipon. Kaya bawal ang uber sa saya. Nagiging magasta na ako lately, wtf. At wala na namang supply.Ang Phisix, nung isang araw, bumagsak, tas nag-zoom pataas. Buti pa ung local currency, appreciating. Ung stock market, magulo talaga. Too risky, yet more and more people are investing on it. At times, you end up with a hefty amount after a day's trading. Or, you lose them all. Faced with that fact, it never ceases to amaze me why people still cash in on these gains, when the other side is also the gloom of losing all you've got. They know the rules, they know what's at stake, tumatalon ka sa tuwa, tapos mamaya natalo ka na pala. Ouchy ouch naman.Well, I guess you could put all the blame to human nature. Mahilig mag-invest kahit pa the picture is a tad gloomy already. Well, I was dreaming of being an investor. Little did I know, investor na pala ako. The gold coins, they were innumerable once, not anymore. I anticipated this, but not this grave. Well, anyway, for the hmft time, bahala na. Pag naubos na ung gold coins, pwedeng manghingi na lang muna. Or tumigil na lang.Labels: tracking the stock market ang hobby..
