Feeling Half the Man I Am

I had a bad day today. I could sing James Blunt's song over and over again.

Thinking this might be a chance to make her laugh and believe I'm a fun guy, I was around my office crush when I accidentally blurt out the wrong words to the wrong person. In front of her.

"May crush ka sa akin ano?" (You do have a crush on me, right?).

It would have been a different story if I said it to her. But I said it to the messenger, who's a guy by the way. He just looked at me and smiled at me.

Witnessing what just happened, another office mate said " Ilabas mo na kasi ang totoong kulay mo, mahirap itago yan!"( Show your true colors, that's very hard to repress! ).

Talk about the getting a head shot by a cannon. Total wreckage.

By the way, she laughed. Mocking me.

Kobe in Manila

I'm not a hardcore fan of NBA but I respect Kobe Bryant for his playing prowess.

Some say his talent is close to the basketball legend Michael Jordan.

I joined some promo over the radio wherein you need answer a question about Kobe Bryant.

By the way, I'm not into basketball.

When I called in, the DJ asked.."What is Kobe Bryant's height?".

Damn.

Relying on my minute basketball knowledge and knowing that he plays the guard position,
I quickly replied, " 5' 8!".

Mali. Natabla pa ako ng DJ. ( Dude, if he's 5'8", I can play in the NBA! )

Anyway, lady luck was still at my side the next day when I called in again.

They asked the same question and answered correctly ( 6'6").

Anyway, i won a couple of tickets to see Kobe Bryant in person!

Kobe Bryant in Manila is part of Kobe's Asian Supernatural Tour, wherein he visits underprivilaged children who likes to play ball for his guidance and support.
He's going to be here on September 5 , at the Philsports Arena ( Ultra ) in Pasig City. He also will visit a Nike Park branch at the Fort Bonifacio.
