Carlo J. Caparas and Joe D' Mango's Love Notes

Guess what? Last Saturday I saw these "masa" comics being sold in Filbars and SM magazine stand. Did they change their target market now and decided it's time to bring them with the glossy magazines and comics stand? Will it sell more than placing it on the newspaper stands? At least it became convinient for me to grab a copy but the stories doesn't relate to me at all! Even the clothes and styles drawn were so outdated! Some stories doesn't even have a story to tell. Well at least, these comics are still way better than NEO comics - such a waste of money. No story at all.

dwarf

Translation:

Fortune teller: Money is slow this year because there is a black dwarf in your house

Cathy: (thinking) as if I believe...

Cthy: ehem... so how can I drive out the black dwarf?

Fortune Teller: just put the ashes of the house of a white dwarf

Cathy: huh?! so... where will I get those ashes??

Fortune teller: here... I'm selling some!

Hulaan

Ken: Guys! Tomorrow...

Jeff: Clover! It's gypsy day... you can do fortune telling!

Clover: You guys want me to do fortune telling? Rhea and Jeff will end up together then this call center will be on fire then our account will close

Rhea: (thinking) hope it will come true!

Ken: English guys!

The Winning Entry

Here's my winning piece in the Valentines poem writing contest held in my company:

Feelings by Hazel Chua

Again feeling so low
Again memories flow
Wondering where I will be this Saturday night,
Wondering where you and she will be spending the night

All day I momentarily stare at nothing
Thinking what had happened to us
Does she care for you more than I could?
Does she love you more than I do?

Seasons have changed the time
Time has changed the wind
The wind has changed your mind
Your mind has changed my life

My soul wonders alone
Looking for the star that was once above
Why still dial? For nothing will change
But maybe if you did, everything will change

My smile would be back
My eyes would sparkle again
But then again
I don’t want to be led on
For nothing can be this cold
That I’m feeling tonight

Clover as Manghuhula

Translation:
Rhea: Clover can be a fortune teller on the side
Jeff: Really? Clover knows how to tell a fortune?! Let's try him out!
Rhea: Dum dum! 'coz he is just guessing all the answers to his customer!

Incentive Plan given to Manager

Translation:

Jeff: Looks like I could kill someone...

Slashed Incentives

Quit Smoking

Translation:

Later During Break:

Clover: The customer is a pain in the ass!

Random Thoughts, comics, autobiography

I was looking for the comics "From Hell" as recommended by Julius but haven't found any... so yesterday I just bought "The Nightmare Factory". I also bought John Gokongwei Jr.' s "The Paths of Entrepreneurship" since I want to make it a habit to read biographies and autobiographies of successful people.

Rant on Stink People

I crush this guy!

P.S. if you happen to work in an Indian company, you would understand what he is talking about... NO OFFENSE OK?
