The thing is, though... These weren't my expectations anyway. Sa mga nakakakilala sa 'kin, alam naman n'yo naman kung ga'no 'ko kababaw lang na tao. Probably a product of my upbringing. Mababaw ang kaligayahan namin lahat sa bahay eh. Basta masarap ang pagkain, walang nag-aaway, walang sirang gamit, wala masyadong lamok, 'tsaka may katulong, masaya na kami lahat. And now that I think about it, I don't see it as lowered expectations, ibig sabihin kase nu'n nagse-settle ka lang for something less - which is definitely not the case. So hindi ko na pala s'ya guiding philosophy. Oh well, at least nagamit ko s'yang intro.

At may pahabol pa pala...
10. Dapat kasama mo ang labidabs mo buong gabi hanggang madaling araw ng Feb. 9-10 kahit alam mong bawal s'ya magpa-late at mahigpit ang internal control measures sa kanila.
-- Lalong hindi ko 'to inexpect.

Sabi sa Two-Factor Theory sa BA 101...
"Benefits that are expected and are given are satisfiers.
Benefits that are expected but are not given are dissatisfiers.
Benefits that are not expected and not given are not dissatisfiers.
Benefits that are not expected and are given are motivators."

Happy birthday to me.

And I try to realize
That I needn't look any further
The whole of the universe
Is plain to see
And I try not to rely
On another world or the future
The whole of the universe is a mystery

Oh no, there you go
Looked away and missed the show
How much wasted time
Will you survive?
Oh yeah, fooled again
I don't know how and I don't know when
Not much else to blame
But wishful thinking
