I can’t touch the on and off switches of televisions. I can’t even touch remote controls. That’s the rule I’ve set up for myself. I can’t do anything to facilitate the turning on of televisions. Or ps2’s. That’s to stop me from wasting all my time watching tv. Of course, if somebody else were to turn on the tv for me, that’d be different. But at the moment, all I could ever get to watch at home are the nighttime soap operas and wowowee.

Isusulat ko dapat sa magic notebook ko na hindi ako iinom ng kape ngayon kase mga 5 cups na nainom ko kahapon, tsaka medyo gusto ko namang kalmado ako ngayon. Pero umiinom na ulit ako ngayon ng kape eh, anong magagawa ko, mamaya siguro lilimitahan ko na lang. Masama ito para sa nerves ko, pero okay lang, basta may time ako ngayon para magsulat sa harap ng computer. Naiisip ko tuloy iyung mate na iniinom sa Argentina at Uruguay, ewan ko, hindi yata iyun nagpapa-nerbyos katulad ng kape, pero san naman ako kukuha non. Gusto ko ring mag B vitamins kase maayos iyung mga iyon para sa nerves ng tao. Okay, relax lang, noel…. kunwari nainom ko na iyung b vitamins. Hmmm…. wow…. pare calm na ako…. yes!

One of the things I’m really good at is winning fighting games on the PS2. Reflexes and adaptation, that’s about it. I could whip anybody’s butt even if it’s the first time I’ve played that game or even if I’m fighting an acknowledged master, it’s all the same to me. I think I’m just muscle memory guy, as long as I don’t have to think too hard about something, I could ace it. I’m really good at timing and figuring out when the right time to counter an enemy’s move is, or when to  pull back or when to duck, etc.

Also, something else I could do: I could still win fighting games even without directly looking at the screen, even while doing something else like watching a tv show. All I’ll need is the slightest hint of the game through my peripheral vision, and my fingers will move almost by themselves.

Wala lang. I rock.

I have this notebook in my other room. Everytime I get an idea for something that I want to do or have to do that day, I write it down on that notebook. A to-do-list notebook. Without it, I wouldn’t be able to function as (comparatively) well as I function now. I mean, I wouldn’t be doing anything at all. I’d just be sleeping or watching tv and thinking up ideas for stories to write but forgetting them after a couple of minutes. I’m really, really, really bad at being mr. organized guy.

Having this blog’s another item in that list. My other blog’s at sciencecapsula.blogspot.com but basically now I’m using that one for my fiction archive. Here’s where I’ll write about day-to-day stuff and all that. I don’t know, these days I’m pretty bad at expressing myself through writing (read: my writing sucks,) so I thought maybe having this blog could help me out, get me a bit more uninhibited in putting words on paper(or screen), drive me to flesh out my ideas and all that. Okay. Yep. So that’s about it.
