Cargoyle:
 Dominant Personality: Understanding
Good Traits: You gravitate towards people, and are a shoulder to lean on. You give advice at any given time.
Bad Traits: You aren't close with any one person. You immerse yourself in other people's problems and forget your own.
People see you as: Friendly, secretive, and popular. People envy you, and may try and use you as a tool
You're most like: Grace. You both have positive relationships with people. Neither of you have close friends, but unlike graceful people, you try to help people out and aren't as arrogant.
You need more: Solitude. You hardly get the chance to breathe when you take on the world's problems. You can't take other's responsibilities or put them before your own. Be selfish once in a while and discover who you really are.

Margoyle:
 Dominant Personality: Fear
Good Traits: You don't trust easily, and you're not gullible. People don't get the chance to take advantage of you.
Bad Traits: You're paranoid. You have to relax a little, and realize that some things aren't worth the fear.
People see you as: Paranoid, impatient, and jumpy. Others don't know why you're so untrusting, and may deem you as a freak.
You're Most Like: Disappointment. You dread with the future holds for you. Unlike disappointment, you haven't experienced much rejection because you don't take risks.
You Need More: Innocence. Be adventerous, and explore the world. Keep in mind that you don't want to be fearless. It just has to be a healthy fear.

It was a lovely day -- Perfect for lying sprawled across the living room, in the gargoyles' usual state of complete sloth. But the realization that we might have to go hungry come dinner time jolted us out of our lazy reverie. (After all, at the rate we've been going, we'd have eaten ourselves out of house and home by brunch...)
So we trekked over to powerplant, commandeered a pushcart, and began the grueling task of grocery shopping.
Ten minutes into the ordeal, we had a loaded cart overflowing with one loaf of whole wheat bread. Turns out we were all in cheapskate mode. In addition to our chronic state of tamad, that meant everything was either too expensive or too complicated to prepare. We ended up just buying easy-to-cook things on sale such as the buy 1 - take 1 promo for lean ground beef (2 kilos worth).
We ended up taking a break in the middle of it all, in aisle 14, shrieking and incapacitated with laughter. Jargoyle found this soybean drink in the milk section called: (insert drum roll...)
Susu Kacang Soya
It took us 5 whole minutes to calm ourselves down enough to proceed with the task at hand.
Finally strolling down the chips section, we happily picked up a few bags of Oishi's French Onion-Flavored Potato Chips. Fortunately, we were able to find the smaller-sized packs. Unfortunately, this was only after we had already placed the larger bags into our cart and walked three steps away from the shelf we got them from. Thus, we were forced to purchase the big bags along with the little bags. Oh the sacrifices we must put up with! Sniffle.
Looking back on the day, it truly was fortuitous that Jargoyle and I had to meet up with a theater contact regarding the musical we wish to produce next year. Lunch at Burgoo was what we desperately needed to replenish the stores of carbos that were completely depleted by all the work we had to do.
I shall vegitate now.

(room 502, the bellevue manila. 9:30pm)
you have sufficiently scrubbed, hair spa-ed, shampooed, shaved, and now you have been soaking in a hot bubble bath for the past 45 minutes.
you lie there in anticipation of what is ahead: caviar is being served on crostini with assorted cheese on the side; a bottle of white bubbly has been chilling in the bucket; vanilla ice cream, dark chocolate, stemmed maraschino cherries are waiting to sweeten your night.
the feather down quilt lies sprawled carelessly across the king-sized bed, its equally feather-stuffed pillows haphazardly strewn about, as you both neglected to make it up from previous activities.
the next best thing to a man wrapped around me is this quilt, you remember thinking, an impish smile playing on your lips.
your fingers begin pruning, signalling the time has come to finally surface from the foams. you allow the water to cascade down your body as you reach for the bottle of body oil. using your fingertips, you smooth delicately-scented drops over your supple curves. you gently pat down your skin with a fresh, toasty towel then slip into a light, fluffy white robe.
you step out from the bathroom and glide towards the dresser, stopping momentarily in front of the wall-length mirror to oh-so-casually admire your goddess-like radiance (as you have never felt this beautiful in your entire life). you are confident that the moment he sees you in this state, he will want for nothing but to throw you onto that carelessly sprawled feather-down quilt and ravish you senseless.
but that will have to wait... besides, your hair isn't quite perfect yet.
standing in front of the dresser, you run your fingers through your wet locks to loosen the occassional errant tangle into submission, and then proceed with the chore of blowing it dry.
putting the appliance down, you take in what you see in the mirror: perfection.
you see your companion smile at you through the mirror and affirms your observations by stating: "you're glowing."
you sweetly smile back and reply: "i know... isn't it sad?"
your best girl friend whole-heartedly agrees.
because you aren't lesbian...
and neither is she.
so you turn and reach for the remote control as she alights from her commercial law reviewer to take her turn in the hot tub.

Calling All Gargoyles!
Major event this Sunday July 10, 2005. DWINNIEE's BIRTHDAY!!! We get to see his exhibit at Big Sky Mind, Doña Juana cor. E. Rodriguez, New Manila.
Ok, so we all got the text invite. But I just wanted to post this because (a) I'd like to see another complete gargoyle get-together and (b) I'm procrastinating having to go to my second lecture class for the day. (Hey, at least I'm actually in the library right now!)
Personally, I'm a bit leery of going. I don't want to have to drag my sorry exercise-deprived overly expanded excuse of a butt to a place that I'm sure will be teeming with skinny supermodels (literally speaking). Need I even state the fact that Dwin will probably be too busy with said skinny supermodels to spend a minute more of his precious time with a lowly gargoyle? Ergo, I in my legalistic brilliance *insert belch* have determined the solution to this unfortunate fact, namely, that we should ALL attend. I'm sure we can muster enough gargoyle charm to counter the magnetism of said veelas, thus stealing Dwin all to ourselves. Mwahahaha! Ahem.
Since the party's at 8pm, we should all meet somewhere first, right? Likewise, shouldn't we get together somehow to figure out what to wear, what present to give, the evening's battle strategy...?
Suggestions are mandated. ;p

geeking out:
(from a magazine) When Bo was two years old, he got his first guitar, and even though to most kids it would have probably only been a plastic toy, it was obvious that to Bo it was much more. Evie tells us of an adventure young Bo had with his guitar and a plastic riding horse with wheels. It seems Bo decided to take his riding horse flying down a hill. Bo had one hand on the reins and the other hand wrapped around his beloved plastic guitar. Suddenly, one of the wheels hit a rock and threw Bo headlong down the hill. During his free-fall Bo was careful to hold his little guitar up over his head. When Bo finally stood up, he was covered in scratches from head to toe. But Bo didn't shed a single tear, he just smiled and said, "Look, Mommie, my horsey is broke, but my guitar is okay."
awww...come here, you cutie.

We're actually all here! Margoyle, Cargoyle, Jargoyle, Zargoyle and Rargoyle (The Gargoyle Formerly Known as 'Chargoyle'). We're just wrapping up with brunch. It was pot luck. Cargoyle cooked marinara. Zargoyle made fruit salad. And the rest of us gobbled it all down for them. Hehehe. We also had a side dish of meatballs with barbeque sauce.
Of course, the main course is to be Eomer, Faramir, Legolas, Aragorn, et. al. Speaking of which, I shall stop typing now and serve the mango gelatin so we can get started... ;p

Yes, the headline is correct.
Gargoyles have taken over PeopleSupport!
Almost two weeks after cargoyle completed her Initial Supervisor Training, jargoyle received an official letter congratulating her for being selected to undergo Initial Supervisor Training, too. =)
Because of Aside from the lure of additional monetary compensation, these gargoyles realized that admin work, agent coaching, and taking escalated calls are very fulfilling endeavors in promoting the growth of their respective accounts. *snicker*
A tentative gargoyle-gathering-cum-housewarming-ala-gargoyle in jargoyle's new flat has been set on payday week or weekend, whichever is more convenient to coerce the majority for all gargoyles to attend. According to the new supervisor trainee and apartment-dwelling gargoyle, utility racks will not be such a bad idea for a housewarming gifts. ;p
Will the request subtle hint be picked up? ;p
This is cargoyle's first post in eons. Another cause for celebration, one thinks. *winks*

Margoylekins and Jargoyle had an epiphany:
Over a bucket meal at Margoyle's pad, two little gargoyles convened over possibilities of the romantic kind (i.e. Snape and Lucius).
Hands crossing as they grabbed various chicken parts from the box with old wise Col. Sanders' image smiling back at us, we were reminded of a certain twinkle in a similar bearded man's eye.
"What if Col. Sanders were Dumbledore?" a gargoyle voiced out to no one in particular, tilting her head to the side.
The other gargoyle paused and pondered the situation presented.
"They would need houses," the second gargoyle pointed out, shifting her gaze towards the four little cups of sidings on the table.
As the first gargoyle followed suit, in complete gargoyle fashion, they simultaneously named the four houses of Henwarts:
Mashed Potatoes is clearly Hufflepuff. *duh*
The pickles in the Chicken Macaroni Salad have a bluish Ravenclaw hint to it. (it takes only a gargoyle mind to figure it out)
Corn and Carrots are definitely Gryffindor. *another duh*
And Coleslaw is Slytherin... (absolutely--- as this was subconsciously the evening's favorite. "Sarap kasi yung Slytherins, eh.")
and from this moment on, visits to KFC will never be the same again.

Tentative Menu:
Herb Soup (15th century recipe) Medieval Shepherd's Pie (14th century recipe... not the pie itself) Rys (14th century recipe for almond honey wild rice) Peppered Roast Pork (15th century recipe) Fresh Vegetables & Fruit (ala Denethor's supper in Peter Jackson's ROTK) Panna Cotta Pumpkin Juice (Madame Rosmerta's Recipe)
There will also be the traditional burning of the Yule log, exchange of gifts, listening to new Alan Rickman mp3s, and watching of artsy, drool-inducing and/or Harry Potter movies. I've been cooking since 4am December 22nd so the gargoyles had better have full attendance. ;p

It was entertaining. That's all I would like to say. Jargoylekins chalks up the evening's performance to 2nd-day syndrome. I'm sure they'll have their hands full with the critics who ended up watching last night so I won't bother adding to that. Rest assured though, Jargoylekins' performance on its own was splendid as usual. Not that I can say the same for the rest of the cast... Hehehe...
( Merrily... ;p )
I'm really looking forward to watching it with the rest of the gargoyles. It would be great to sit back and ridicule-- er, I mean, laugh at-- er, I meant, appreciate (Yes, that's it!) the entire performance with Cargoyle and Zargoyle. Teehee. Love you mummy! ;p

Try it here.
Well, I did have to amuse myself after the gargoylian viewing of 'Merrily' got cancelled earlier. *sigh* I do hope we all get to watch mummykins' show.

Well, yet another failed attempt to get the gargoyles together has come and gone. It was pretty cool. I got to watch Mummy Jargoyle perform a few songs for her Musical Director's open mic thingy. Hmm... Ronnie... isn't that the guy...? Heh...
There were way too many people with gorgeous voices there. Though obviously our fellow gargoyle was definitely one of the evening's stars. There were also way too many people wasting away their utterly delectable 'Y' chromosomes by fancying and/or shagging other people with 'Y' chromosomes, unfortunately. (Not right there, thankfully.) Beeches and Badings. So many people to kill. Gargoyles exempt of course. Oh, did I mention that I had the perfect view of Mr. & Mrs. Laparan from Zane's college org? Naturally all lovey dovey. Angel looking (and sounding) unfairly gorgeous for someone who has actually given birth.
High point of my evening was hearing the duet from the DLSU Chorale sing 'I Know Him So Well'. It sure brought back memories of Radipro and the Miguel DJ Booth. The wine mummy treated me to was also pretty yummy. Though the fact that Mummy was able to sing the songs she wanted since a certain beech we should all hate (for real this time) was late and couldn't steal her songs remains at the top of my happy-things-for-today list. As Mummy and I agreed, life can sometimes be fair.
I suppose I won't go into details. I'm sure there are more eloquent narratives of the evening in one of the other blogs linked in Mummy Jargoyle's site. I just wanted to record yet another 'should have been' gargoyle event that has come and gone. I really hope we can all make it on the 27th for the showing of 'Merrily'.
Thanks mummy, for my monthly dose of culture! ;p

Well, as you all should know by now, Miss Janna Chrsna Tan Remolisan is now married to Neil Monter Servillejo. Since I neglected to bring a camera along (Hey, I slept at 7AM and had to leave at 8!), let me narrate the 'salient' points of the fateful event...
( A Wedding in Cavite )
( Romantic (a.k.a. Gag!) Highlights: )
No offense to the bride and groom but I'd really rather avoid weddings for a while now-- gargoylian weddings being in exception, of course. Then again, just how soon another gargoyle wedding will take place is rather predictable... *cough* not likely anytime soon *cough*.
I really am looking forward to Saturday night gargoyle dinner. I'm just dying to snicker, er I mean, reminisce about the event with the other gargoyles.

I went to visit Jargoylekins at her house last saturday night. She was sick. I was sick. (Physically this time, not just the usual mental stuff.) I could only stay a bit since I had to get home, take medicine and collapse into bed. Although, we did get around to some interesting conversation and Jargoyle introduced me to the fun fun world of Avenue Q, the "adult-oriented" broadway spoof of Sesame Street. As I told her, she's my only source of culture. So you can imagine how culture starved this margoyle is.
Anyways, we got around to talking about the potential gargoyle trip to Spain that Zargoyle's planned for January 2005. Jargoyle can't make it due to financial considerations. Poor margoyle me can't leave her dratted law school thing. And thus, it was decided that Cargoyle cannot and should not go either. For the simple reason that history should not repeat itself.
Not clear enough? Well, let's just say that Jargoyle and I remember a little incident back in college which also involved Zargoyle's romantic life. She was supposed to have this wonderful date with this guy she was mutually in crush with. Unfortunately, a certain gargoyle *cough* cargoyle *cough* just had to require some gargoyle attention from Zargoyle that very same evening, thus canceling the otherwise romantically planned date. (Well, as romantic as watching the worst movie of all time could be... but that's a Margoyle issue.)
In other words, look what happened to Ronnie. Wouldn't want Jon turning out that way too, now would we? =P
We love you Cargoyle! =D But maybe you should go with Zargoyle only when the rest of us gargoyles can go with you. After all, then, the two lust birds won't have to worry about social obligations since us gargoyles will be able to hold our own. Come on, they've been apart for ages. Let poor Jon get some before he discovers what "the other side" can offer. >D

1. I will try to get more rest. Rest is good for the mind and body. 2. I will pay off my debts by September. (credit card and whatnot) 3. My birthday gift for myself will be a new pair of dance shoes and enough money for at least 3 dance lessons. Dance lessons improve posture. Improved posture = improved placement. Improved placement = better singing. 4. I will get a massage regularly (as my physical therapist instructed). Bad back = bad breathing. Bad breathing = bad singing. Cannot be. 5. I will wear makeup when I go out, be it with gargoyles or not. (especially with gargoyles except on spa days) 6. I will read more. 7. I will drink 8-10 glasses of water a day. 8. I will not look for a new boy (Not that current boy is only choice), but new boy will seek me out (it wouldn't be so bad for current boy to seek me out too). 9. I will finish all the books in my reading pile before I buy another one. 10. I will do what I can to grow in my craft, henceforth, I will either direct or appear in another play (musical or not) by the end of 2004.
gargoyles will help, right?
love you all!
