On "My Bestfriends' Wedding" and Singlehood

So Christmas Day (and incidentally also my Birthday) just came and went. Though it was relatively better this year than the previous ones, I still can’t help but compare it to my younger days celebrating this auspicious occasion. I guess for some reason, when we get older, you also lose interest on celebrating.

It’s true what they say, Christmas ARE for kids… and those kids at heart.

-o-

Today I watched, probably for the 100th time, My Best Friends Wedding and thought of 10 reasons why we (I) love this movie.

10. It stars Julia Roberts. Need I say more?

9. It’s a feel-good-romantic-comedy that one can never get tired of watching.

8. The story is just great. I think the writers Terry Rossio and Ted Elliott created one of the best movies ever.

7. P.J. Hogan, the director captured the actors’ best qualities on that film. There wasn’t any dull moment on this film.

6. I looooove Cameron Diaz’s portrayal of Kimberly Wallace here. She’s sooooo “annoyingly perfect.”

5. The soundtrack. Who didn’t fall in love with “I’ll Say A Little Prayer For You” and the fabulous scene where the entire cast sang it over lobster lunch.

4. Durmot Mulroney, though not so hot, appeared irresistible here. Which guy would not love being chased by two women? I hear most guys fantasized about this long before puberty.

3. This line, “Kimi always says that if you love someone, you say it or the moment just passes you by.” Cue song: “Someday, when I’m awful’y low….” Lurrrrrrvvvvvit!!!

2. It talks about true love, double dealing/lying…three of my favorite topics and not forgetting blind-devotion.

1. Rupert Green, the gay editor/friend of Jules. He added an absolute spice to the movie. It showed and quite possibly proved that it’s wonderful to have a gay friend. So if you don’t have one, I suggest you go get one.




-o-

Being a hopeless-romantic to the core can be quite daunting, especially if you love chick-flick movies. It gets you thinking about your sorry little ass and why up to now, after 14 freakin’ months you’re still single, living alone and successful. While others, celebrate 28th as a momentous day, declare 1129 as the address of heaven, I on the other hand, has substituted Play Station 2 for sex, is planning to get a cat to complete my spinsterhood, and might possible just die of old age and still single. FOCK!

If I don’t meet someone soon, I just might go on a killing rampage, God forbid. Guess I’m too picky, as one friend said. To which I said in reply, “I’m not picky, I’m just specific. I know what I want and deserve and I refuse to settle for anyone less.”

And they say Christmas is for lovers too. HAH! Not if you’re single.

Arabian Nights

Oh... I come from a land in a far away place where the caravan camels roam. Where they cut off your ear if they don't like your face, it's barbaric, but HEY!, it's home...

There's Just Something About Her... (PETCHAY!)

Never in my wildest imagination that I would even attempt to write about something that I was totally clueless, undiscovered (by me), and as usually despised as a woman's vajay-jay. Or as i fondly call it, for purposes of this blog 'petchay'. But a recent conversation with a dear friend had inexplicably forced me to go to a local bookstore, buy a small notebook and pen, sit down and was compelled to start writing about a topic I've only spoken about in humour.

Let me just emphasize that I had never fantasized about it, never explored it, and have only seen it on straight porno films that I used to watch as a kid (only because I'm more interested and focused on the other thing) and a few if not forgotten glimpses of it on a few occasions...live. So forgive me for my lack of knowledge about what it is that fascinates men and yes, even a selected group of women to something that secrete blood every that time of the month.

I do however, know a little about it having directed the Vagina Monologues back in college as a school production. And let me say that if that didn't even interest me to change sexual preference, I guess nothing in this universe will. I was, am and will forever remain loyal to it's glorious counter-part. (Pause to give a moment of silent praise.)

"Your petchay is the best-tasting, best-looking, best-smelling and most beautiful ever. And it's best fit for my 'thaaang.'

THAT my dear friends was the claim of a certain guy who after exepriencing a long sexual nirvana with my good friend, described her petchay.

Now, how many of women do you know out there in this planet was ever told that line, even as a lie? I'm probably guessing very, very, very few. So my good friend and I suddenly got wondering if her petchay has some addictive property that the world is yet to discover. And if only we could create a drug out of its secretion, we would probably be richer than the Queen of England. But I guess the only way to truly find out is to be there myself first-hand, which there is noooo wayyyy in HELL I will do. Not even if you pay me. I would rather tear my eyes out than to see it; bind my lips shut than to taste it; and pull out my nose than to smell it.

We've been friends for quite a long time that I am aware of what this girl can do. The miracles and glory of it all. I've heard the stories and even on a few rare times seen her in action. (Again, focusing only on the other partner.) But still it seems that there's some truth to this claim since most of her men keep coming back for more... and more... and more! Even to a point they would have to beg. A true goddess to the core could only command such followers! I swear if I were to be reincarnated, I would want nothing more than to be this girl's petchay. To quote her, "My petchay can change lives and break relationships."

Amazing! It's already like a religion!

I've had my fair share of compliments and praises from my sexual partners but none specifically targeted to my 'toy'. It's usually something generic like, "Oh, you're a damn good kisser!" or "You're sooo hot and sexy!" or "I could do this with you for the rest of my life!" (Ready, set.... cartwheel!!!) But this usually only happens when I'm on the top of my game. I usually perform best when love is involved or at least a similar kind of emotion. Plus alcohol can also seriously stimulate and arouse me. (Cocktails later anyone?)

Writing about petchay too much us starting to make me feel nauseous. I'd better stop before I end up having recurring nightmares about it. But for those wanting to experience the much glorified petchay you will have to meet a certain criteria. 1.) You have to be well-hung. 2.) You have to be clean, gorgeous and irresistible. 3.) Your other head should be equally, if not superbly stimulating as the other smaller one. And 4.) You should have something more to offer than what was already stated above.

Bottom line, we will only remain in awe and wonder why her petchay has this incredible power. And I, being too gay to almost function, could only remain respectful (and even a wee-bit envious) that such a vagina exists to change lives!

Uganda, ke-ganda

3rd day at Uganda, Africa. Work-wise, the past few days have been relatively easy on us. Well, at least most of us.

This is my 3rd time in the African continent and my first in Uganda. I can't say that I would want to live here but I will say that I love the weather, especially at night. Though there's much left to be said about the sights, sounds and even the smell of this place. I will not touch on that any further. *wink!*

Monyonoyo Commonwealth Resort is located a few minutes away from the capital city, Kampala. It's a five-star resort that pretty much reminds me of Baguio, Tagaytay and Batangas rolled into one back home.




Just thinking about home makes me miss it even more. And eventhough this trip to Africa was planned a long time back I somehow still feel that this was an abrupt trip. It feels like someone just pulled me off my bed and dragged me to go here.



Good thing I have my handy camera with me and I took some pretty awesome shots (in my personal opinion!). Speaking of camera, I was wondering... I saw quite a number of people naming their cameras... their dSLRs. As to why? I really don't know. But I have yet to name my own d60. Haven't given it much thought yet. Do you guys have any suggestions? I'm thinking, BEBEH or HUNNY BUN! HAHAHA! I'm kidding of course, but when I do come up with a name, I'll make sure to let ya'll know.



Reejoie actually got the first shot of this freakin' huge bird since she arrived a day earlier. So I decided to hunt for this Crane and take a picture of it myself. Of course I highly doubt if this was the same bird but if it was then it's only lucky animal.

***I took quite a number which you could see at my multiply site.


Here are a few more artsy-fartsy shots I took while smoking, loitering, lingering, walking and everything else in between, including working.


This was the brick wall where I ever-so-considerately extinguish my cigarettes after I'm done puffing my death smoke. Doesn't it look nice? Tee-hee!




These are wristbands given to our participants. My job is actually to tally all the wristbands to whoever I registered for the day on my table. But just as luck may have it, I am missing one. And I am hoping not to be royally screwed because it. Oh well... I took a nice photo of them though. I was also asked by Jong to take another shot of this using the corporate camera, to which I gladly obliged and he used it for our website. Love it!

PS. I can't wait to be back home and fix my new apartment. I miss home and everything about it.

Move Me

Leaving for Uganda, Africa tomorrow night and I’m not at all ready for this trip. As usual, I’m just about to pack my things tonight. But since I’ve traveled so much because of my work I can consider myself as an able packer.

I failed to write blog entries the past week due to my very busy schedule, so I’m taking this chance to update you guys. At least to those very few who follow the drama in my life.


This was written on a scratch paper last Sunday, Nov 16, 2008 with my usual Café Latte in Starbucks, Rockwell Mall.

-o-

There are moments in life that can leave you wondering for days, weeks, months or sometimes, even years. And while some take their sweet time wondering and asking, I have fully decided to take action and try to take control over my seemingly chaotic life. I just want to try and be truly happy and I sincerely hope that my plans in the very near future can make that happen. After all, as I’ve already mentioned in my previous blog entry, happiness is but a series of correct choices. Let me just hope that this is one of many more to come.

There are several factors that I would consider why I felt so unhappy for the longest time. And this is not only because I’ve been single for a long time but I feel my life now is not going in the direction that I want or at least dreamed about. And though I know I have a relatively good life compared to most, I still ask myself what led to my unhappiness. Perhaps one big factor would be that I was too lazy to follow my dreams however ridiculous it may have been.

I have always been known as a jack-of-all-trades, master-of-none. I am proud to say that I am quite talented (Ahem! Ahem!). I sing, dance, write, cook, paint, and draw. I can also take relatively good photographs – out of sheer passion for it. I know how to even process them. I can even wash the dishes, take out the garbage, clean the house (including the toilet) and wash and iron clothes. See, I can be a good house partner, I’m all-around. HE-HE!

But I remember when I was younger I was very much a different person. I used to be more carefree, jollier, perkier, and seemingly just living my life as if it were my last day on this planet. I was, as far as I could recall happy(-ier). But perhaps as the years went by in my pretty young life, problems, challenges, and all sorts of trials and tribulations robbed me of my child-like, not-a-care-in-the-world type of personality. I became less innocent and more malibog, (horny) este malishyoso pala (full of malice). The innocence slowly died when I reached puberty. I am no psychoanalyst or psychologist but I believe that no one can understand yourself better than you. And while most of my childhood friends would tell me that I never changed, I feel I did. But come to think of it, don’t we all change as the years go by and circumstances in our life force us to be different?

And so, in my attempt to find my old self or who knows even find a new me, I had to make certain decisions that I know will help me grow as a person.

I am moving out of my (family’s) house … soon, very soon!

I have lived my entire life there and though I love them very much, it’s just getting tiring to quarrel with your siblings every now and then. And then there are all the house rules that need to be followed. No, I am not moving out to be free from these rules. Well, okay fine, part and partial of the reason is that but not entirely. I am turning 27 very soon and I believe I am old enough to experience what it is like to live by myself. I’ve known even some who started during college and I believe those people are more matured and responsible in a way. I think I’m ready, but if I’m wrong then it’s about time I find out and prove otherwise.

Sure it’s practical to live with your family, less expenses, less responsibilities, and basically more convenient. But somehow, practically is over-ruled by (my) need. I need to grow. I need to prove something to myself and maybe to the rest of the world.

I know it will be difficult. I’ve already psyched myself about that, the long and lonely nights, the boredom, the financial struggles and everything else unexpected. But I still want to do it. Let me experience first hand how hard this would be and then I could say, even if I don’t succeed, I tried.

I am clearing my debts in a few months, the two credit cards and money loan will be forever gone, hopefully before the year ends. I want to start fresh. I will even learn to budget and commute (– I know how to, I just don’t like it. I take a taxi almost everyday). Goodbye convenience and kaartehan, Hello hardships and lessons! I am not about to say I could do it but it’s about time I did.

Fingers-crossed (and even including eyes, legs and arms) with a lot of prayers and strong will, correct judgments and even a little help from Mama and other friends, I hope this move will prove to be correct.

Let me be happy, even if I fail trying.

The Why's of Men

*My mom (yes, mom as in mother) sent this to me. Funny, funny, funny! Wanted to share. I wonder if they have something like this but for gay guys! =D

-----Just an intro before you read on . . .
and realize why men are so important to women!

----------------------------------------------------------
One day my housework-challenged husband decided to wash his sweatshirt.
Seconds after he stepped into the laundry room, he shouted to me,
"What setting do I use on the washing machine?"
"It depends," I replied. "What does it say on your shirt?"
He yelled back, " University of Oklahoma ."

And they say blondes are dumb...
-----------------------------------------------------------
"It's just too hot to wear clothes today," Jack says as he stepped out of the shower.
"Honey, what do you think the neighbors would think if I mowed the lawn like this?"
"Probably that I married you for your money," she replied.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Q: What do you call an intelligent, good looking, sensitive man?
A: A rumor
-----------------------------------------------------------
Dear Lord,
I pray for Wisdom to understand my man;
Love to forgive him;
and Patience for his moods.
Because, Lord, if I pray for Strength . . .
. . . I'll beat him to death. AMEN
----------------------------------------------------------
Q: Why do little boys whine?
A: They are practicing to be men.
----------------------------------------------------------
Q: What does it mean when a man is in your bed gasping for breath
and calling your name?
A: You did not hold the pillow down long enough.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Q: How do you keep your husband from reading your e-mail?
A: Rename the mail folder "Instruction Manual."
-----------------------------------------------------------

. . . and now the explanations!

The Why's of Men

1. WHY DO MEN BECOME SMARTER DURING SEX?
(because they are plugged into a genius)

2. WHY DON'T WOMEN BLINK DURING SEX?
(they don't have enough time)

3 WHY DOES IT TAKE 1 MILLION SPERM TO FERTILIZE ONE EGG?
(they don't stop to ask directions)

4. WHY DO MEN SNORE WHEN THEY LIE ON THEIR BACKS?
(because their balls fall over their butt-hole and they vapor lock)
(You're laughing, aren't you?!?!)

5. WHY WERE MEN GIVEN LARGER BRAINS THAN DOGS?
(so they won't hump women's legs at cocktail parties)

6. WHY DID GOD MAKE MEN BEFORE WOMEN?
(you need a rough draft before you make a final copy)

7. HOW MANY MEN DOES IT TAKE TO PUT A TOILET SEAT DOWN?
(don't know . . . never saw it done)

Okay, before you think you women are supreme than us men, it's time to
bring you to your knees . . .

. . . and the personal favorite:

8. WHY DID GOD PUT MEN ON EARTH?
(because a vibrator can't mow the lawn!)

And Counting....

It's official. It's been forever and a day.

Exactly one year ago, I was in Nairobi, Kenya working my ass off trying to forget the fact that my lover and I had just broken up. I remember during idle moments, which comes rare on our events, I'd sit in one corner and start crying. And that's because that @#!@&!! partee addict can't kick off the habit and chose it over lil' ol' me. That and probably because I try and 'help' him do so. Let's just say my messianic complex gets the best of me sometimes.

So here are just a few things I've realized since I've been single. One year and still counting...

1. I've become a wee-bit jaded on the entire concept of love and relationships. I did meet several possibilities, including one very recent that I purposely discounted to be a relationship but more to be a big, huge, enormous mistake. With one particular chubby guy who was, more than anything, an idea of what great love could have been. But meeting a lot of great almost(s) can be such an irritating chore. You meet, connect, pursue, and then before you know it, it's more complicated than you hoped it would be. Then, you start it all over again.

2. Boys will be boys and men (way older men) are just meant to be my friends. A dilemma on choosing a 23 year old kid versus one 43 year old guy that lead me to conclude I should find someone around my age or a little bit older.

3. I still despise people who do drugs, especially the ohh, so notorious Partee Pill which I would like to call the death drug of our generation. I just don't know what they get out of it. But I've meet a lot of friends who takes this drug and I just find it sad that such wonderful people are wasting money over something they know is slowly killing them. Perhaps, much like cigarettes (which I also can't quit, but want to) they get some satisfaction out of them. Oh well, my opinions get worse over Shabs, Coke, Heroin, and the likes. Unlike partee, these hard core chemicals destroys not only their body, but it's a guaranteed way to destroy relationships as well. I should know seeing one of my uncles wasted away because of Shabs.

4. Exes will be and forever remain exes. In my search for true love (naks! me ganon?!), I visited past relationships and tried to rekindle what can be rekindled. But alas, I've learned that once you lose the fire, even time cannot put the spark back. Except for some freaky chance that you get in bed... to sleep. HA-HA!

5. The corporate world is a jungle and survival is the name of the game. Working for a corporate environment that's full of politics can be harsh. It takes a really tough person to survive all the back-stabbing, gossiping, jealousy, ass-kicking and ass-licking, betrayal and everything else in between. You need to learn how to play the game or you'll get eaten alive. But then again, good things come to good people and I believe that what happened to me came as a blessing in disguise. I'm happier, a wee-bit richer and less stressed now. H-A! Take that ya'll! (tee-hee!)

6. Count your blessings. There are many things I should be grateful for, like good health, great friends, a complete family and a well paying job. So why is it that finding a lover suddenly became a priority for me? Well, for one because that's the one thing I don't have now. But hey, who knows, maybe before my Christmas Blues kick-in I'll be in a relationship. Fingers-crossed.

7. I know myself now, more than ever. Yes, I can defy gravity. I've always thought that I am a tough nut to crack but hey, over the months, I've proven to myself that I really am. Me-so-happeee! Not a lot of things can bring me down but when it does, I can almost immediately bounce right back up.

And so, forever and a day isn't so bad after all. It has taught me a few things that I would have never realized otherwise. Still, I'm on my never-ending search and I sincerely hope it would be this one but I can't be too sure. So right now, I'm just enjoying the moment.



We only get to live once, why not live everyday as if it were the last.

Chokoleit in Las Vegas (Ms. Yunibers)

(Video Failed!!!!) WAHHH!!! Here's the link, view it at YouTUBE. A friend actually asked me to view this file in YouTube and I died laughing watching it. I've seen Chokoleit in Laffline and Punchline before and he already did this skit. Still, whenever I watch it I can't help but be amazed how talented our (Filipino) stand-up comedians are. Cheers to you Chokoleit! =D Found this article in Manila Bulletin... And note that this was written back in 2005. :)

Chokoleit: TV?s latest flavor of a comedian




It?s true that it does take time before anything or even anyone for that matter reaches its "full flavor" and maturity. Stand-up-comedian and sing-along master Chokoleit knows that fact by heart as his journey towards popularity has been long and winding. But it has its sweet rewards as he has become one of the more popular faces in ABS-CBN?s shows.


"It was really a long time," he said in Tagalog. "I started in 1993 and it was just last year that everything went right for me in showbiz."

He added that he had a hard time invading mainstream showbiz because he didn?t know how and he didn?t know who to approach. What he realized though was that showbiz was also about right timing, if it was his, it would happen, in due time.

"This is my passion and that is the reason I kept trying. I really want to make people laugh. And during my trying times, deep inside of me I always believed my time would come. I just knew that God gave me this talent for a purpose," he rationalized.

Every night he enjoyed performing to regulars and new spectators in music?comedy bars like Purple Edge, Punchline, Laffline and Musicbox. His passion in comedy was the reason he didn?t become impatient about making it big time in showbiz. For him, he?d rather that he go through hardships before hitting mainstream showbiz so he could enjoy its benefits maybe longer.

"Now that I?m reaping the fruits of my labor, I?m going to take care of my even more. I won?t waste it nor take it for granted," he declared.

Chokoleit, while he was doing his regular gigs at different music-comedy bars, has also appeared in a number of television shows like "Haybol Rambol" and "Brunch" from the year 1999 to 2000. Unfortunately, his career was quite bumpy, he would either find himself with some TV appearances or none at all. And often there was a long period in between the shows that he did. It was as a stand?up comedian that kept him busy.

According to Chokoleit, his biggest break came last year when he was cast by director Wen Deramas in "Marina" as Pearly Shell. It was a moment he would cherish for the rest of his life since it opened new doors for him in show business. It even opened a new market for him because of his fantasy characters ­ the children televiewers!

"Kids recognize me more as Pearly Shell. I?m very happy about it," he shared.

Right now, Chokoleit after "Marina" is in the shows "Kaya Mo Ba ?To?" of Carlos Agassi, the Sunday showbiz oriented news show "The Buzz" and "Bora," as a semi-regular member.

Among the shows mentioned above, the most challenging is "Kaya Mo Ba ?To?" A reality TV show on daring people, his segment is related to animals. Televiewers every Saturday afternoon would see him racing people against ostrich or spending time with gorillas or pigs in their respective cages or pigpens.

"In this show, I?m the one with the animal appeal," laughed Chokoleit about his ordeals in his new show. "If you?re new in the business you just have no choice. You just have to establish yourself first. What I do in the show is fine with me. I know that I would also be doing other things in the future."

Like anyone growing in popularity in tinseltown, Chokoleit has also his share of intrigues. His latest one painted a bad image of him when an alleged whorehouse for men was raided and his name surfaced as one of the customers.

"I was really affected when this came out. I hope everything is okay already?.it?s true that I?ve gone to that place. I usually met my gay friends there. That?s all."

Looking back to where he started, Chokoleit shared that things have changed in the realm of stand-up comedy.

"To think that instead of upgrading the quality of stand-up comedy, the influx of so?called stand-up comedians lessened it because everyone now can instantly become a stand-up comedian. If you just know how to impersonate talents, tell the same old joke, you?re gay and you ridicule people, you?re immediately a stand-up comedian."

What he meant was that people may have forgotten the real essence of a stand-up comedian. It has always been for him standing in front of an audience and making them laugh without the expense of other people. He recalled the times of Arnel Ignacio and Ai Ai delas Alas in Musicbox wherein they could stand by themselves and be funny. Rather than evolving, the offensiveness of some comedians have even brought the quality of stand-up comics down.

"Unfortunately, I also become ?malaswa? in my shows in those music-comedy bars because that is what my audience usually clamor for. But in corporate shows or out of time gigs, I make it a point to have a sanitized show. I just have to be responsible."

So what kept his dream alive in showbiz?

"When I was just a sing?along-master, I already dreamt of being in showbiz to be like Roderick Paulate. He inspired me. He made me realize that you can be an actor even if you are not very good looking as long as you have talent. I told him that. I really believe in his talents. You can bring him anywhere - acting, comedy, hosting and even singing. I hope I can achieve even half of what he has," he shared.

Roderick Paulate?s advice to him is simple ­ have the right attitude, get along with people well, be considerate with other people and be humble.

For those wondering why he was nicknamed Chokoleit, look at him again. He was named Chokoleit (because of his color) by his friends in high school which didn?t offend him. He was even called "cocoa" or "chocolate."

"I wasn?t hurt by their name?calling because I don?t easily get mad. I?m a very happy person and everything that happens to me I think of it as having a purpose. I always see things in a positive light. I even make fun of myself?I?m glad that I look like this and I?m gay. If I became a man and I look like this, I think I would have become a criminal by now. Or if I were a girl and I looked like this, I?d still be a virgin until now," laughed Chokoleit.

Well, all those who called him derogatory names before should now look at Chokoleit. He may not look like the regular matinee idol but he has become one of the sweetest sensations in television right now. And his fame has earned him opportunities for out of town shows and money to slowly build his dream house. And like what he has always said, everything in life has a purpose from God.

What he can only say about his rising career in ABS-CBN is "ang kapamilya hindi ka iiwanan, ang puso, puwede kang magkasakit, magkaka-heart attack ka."

Jonathan Garcia a.k.a. Chokoleit is one comedian ON THE RISE!

And friends, watch out for our SET CARDS to be out soon. HIHIHIHI! Hayyylurrvit!

Lovefool

I've played that game and remember the rules.
Few times I've won and celebrated victory.
Yet often I lost but learned the lessons in defeat,
Became wiser on the riddles that you've shown.

I won't be fooled and tricked into believing your were true.
Your eyes, they deceive you.
It tells me what lies your mouth utters,
And how cold your touch feels on my skin.

I've walked this path and chose to turn the other way.
It's been too long, too far, too late.
I know you're capable of breaking hearts and only to forget.
That smile, that kiss, that embrace, it's all too familiar.

Stay away, I do not want you hovering like a cloud above my head.
I've been through this i remember how it felt
It tricks you to believing there's more than what you could expect.
I know the rules, I've played this game before, remember?

Life's Facts by Bob Ong

I started reading his books a couple of years ago and ever since, finishing Alamat ng Gubat, I fell in love with his humor, wit, writing skills and everything else in between.

These are some of the facts of life that Bob Ong wrote on his books. Read on and see why he really does make a lot of sense.

PAG-IBIG

"Kung hindi mo mahal and isang tao, wag ka nang magpakita ng motibo para mahalin ka nya.."

"Lahat naman ng tao sumeseryoso pag tinamaan ng pagmamahal. Yun nga lang, hindi lahat matibay para sa temptasyon."

"Gamitin ang puso para alagaan ang taong malapit sayo. Gamitin ang utak para alagaan ang sarili mo."

"Huwag mong bitawan ang bagay na hindi mo kayang makitang hawak ng iba."

"Huwag mong hawakan kung alam mong bibitawan mo lang."

"Huwag na huwag ka hahawak kapag alam mong may hawak ka na."

"Parang elevator lang yan eh, bakit mo pagsisiksikan ung sarili mo kung walang pwesto para sayo. Eh meron naman hagdan, ayaw mo lang pansinin."

"Kung maghihintay ka nang lalandi sayo, walang mangyayari sa buhay mo... Dapat lumandi ka din."

"Pag may mahal ka at ayaw sayo, hayaan mo. Malay mo sa mga susunod na araw ayaw mo na din sa kanya, naunahan ka lang."

"Hiwalayan na kung di ka na masaya. Walang gamot sa tanga kundi pagkukusa."

"Pag hindi ka mahal ng mahal mo wag ka magreklamo. Kasi may mga tao rin na di
mo mahal pero mahal ka.. Kaya quits lang."

"Bakit ba ayaw matulog ng mga bata sa tanghali? alam ba nilang pag natuto
silang umibig e hindi na sila makakatulog kahit gusto nila?"

"Hindi lungkot o takot ang mahirap sa pag-iisa kundi ang pagtanggap na sa bilyon-bilyong tao sa mundo, wala man lang nakipaglaban upang makasamaka."

"Kung nagmahal ka ng taong di dapat at nasaktan ka, wag mong sisihin ang puso mo. Tumitibok lang yan para mag-supply ng dugo sa katawan mo. Ngayon, kung magaling ka sa anatomy at ang sisisihin mo naman ay ang hypothalamus mo na kumokontrol ng emotions mo, mali ka pa rin! Bakit? Utang na loob! Wag mong isisi sa body organs mo ang mga sama ng loob mo sa buhay! Tandaan mo: magiging masaya ka lang kung matututo kang tanggapin na hindi ang puso, utak, atay o bituka mo ang may kasalanan sa lahat ng nangyari sayo, kundi IKAW mismo!"

PAG-AARAL

"Mag-aral maigi. Kung titigil ka sa pag-aaral, manghihinayang ka pagtanda mo dahil hindi mo naranasan ang kakaibang ligayang dulot ng mga araw na walang pasok o suspendido ang klase o absent ang teacher. (Haaay, sarap!)."

"Nalaman kong marami palang libreng lecture sa mundo, ikaw ang gagawa ng syllabus. Maraming teacher sa labas ng eskuwelahan, desisyon mo kung kanino ka magpapaturo. Lahat tayo enrolled ngayon sa isang university, maraming subject na mahirap, pero dahil libre, ikaw ang talo kung nag-drop ka. Isa-isa tayong ga-graduate, iba't-ibang paraan. tanging diploma ay ang mga alaala ng kung ano mang tulong o pagmamahal ang iniwan natin sa mundong pinangarap nating baguhin minsan..."

"Hikayatin mo lahat ng kakilala mo na magkaroon ng kahit isa man lang paboritong libro sa buhay nila. Dahil wala nang mas kawawa pa sa mga taong literado pero hindi nagbabasa."

"dalawang dekada ka lang mag-aaral. kung 'di mo pagtityagaan, limang dekada ng kahirapan ang kapalit. sobrang lugi. kung alam lang 'yan ng mga kabataan, sa pananaw ko ehh walang gugustuhing umiwas sa eskwela."

BUHAY (IN GENERAL)

"nalaman kong hindi final exam ang passing rate ng buhay. hindi ito multiple
choice, identification, true or false, enumeration or fill-in-the-blanks na sinasagutan kundi essay na isinusulat araw-araw. Huhusgahan ito hindi base sa kung tama o mali ang sagot, kundi base sa kung may kabuluhan ang mga isinulat o wala. Allowed ang erasures."

"Kumain ka na ng siopao na may palamang pusa o maglakad sa bubog nang nakayapak, pero wag na wag kang susubok mag-drugs. Kung hindi mo kayang umiwas, humingi ka ng tulong sa mga magulang mo dahil alam nila kung saan ang mga murang supplier at hindi ka nila iisahan."

"Mangarap ka at abutin mo. Wag mong sisihin ang sira mong pamilya, palpak mong syota, pilay mong tuta, o mga lumilipad na ipis. Kung may pagkukulang sa'yo mga magulang mo, pwde kang manisi at maging rebelde. Tumigil ka sa pag-aaral, mag-asawa ka, mag-drugs ka, magpakulay ka ng buhok sa kili-kili. Sa banding huli, ikaw din ang biktima. Rebeldeng walang napatunayan at bait sa sarili."

"Tuparin ang mga pangarap. Obligasyon mo yan sa sarili mo. Kung gusto mo
mang kumain ng balde-baldeng lupa para malagay ka sa Guinness Book of World Records at maipagmalaki ng bansa natin, sige lang. Nosi balasi. wag mong pansinin ang sasabihin ng mga taong susubok humarang sa'yo. Kung hindi nagsumikap ang mga scientist noon, hindi pa rin tayo dapat nakatira sa jupiter ngayon. Pero hindi pa rin naman talaga tayo nakatira sa jupiter dahil nga hindi nagsumikap ang mga scientist noon. Kita mo yung moral lesson?"

"Nalaman kong habang lumalaki ka, maraming beses kang madadapa. Bumangon ka man ulit o hindi, magpapatuloy ang buhay, iikot ang mundo, at mauubos ang oras."

HALO-HALO

"Wag magmadali sa pag-aasawa. Tatlo, lima , sampung taon sa hinaharap, mag-iiba pa ang pamantayan mo at maiisip mong di pala tamang pumili ng kapareha dahil lang sa kaboses niya si Debbie Gibson o magaling mag-breakdance. Totoong mas importante ang kalooban ng tao higit anuman. Sa paglipas ng panahon, maging ang mga crush ng bayan sa eskwelahan e nagmumukha ring pandesal. Maniwala ka."

"ayokong nasasanay sa mga bagay na pwede namang wala sa buhay ko."

"hinahanap mo nga ba ako o ang kawalan ko?"

"hindi dahil sa hindi mo naiintindihan ang isang bagay ay kasinungalingan na ito. at hindi lahat ng kaya mong intindihin ay katotohanan. "

"Sabi nila, sa kahit ano raw problema, isang tao lang ang makakatulong
sa'yo - ang sarili mo. Tama sila. Isinuplong ako ng sarili ko. Kaya siguro
namigay ng konsyensya ang Diyos, alam niyang hindi sa lahat ng oras e gumagana
ang utak ng tao."

"Obligasyon kong maglayag, karapatan kong pumunta sa kung saan ko gusto, responsibilidad ko ang buhay ko."

"Masama akong tao, tulad mo, sa parehong paraan na mabuti kang tao, tulad ko."

"Mas mabuting mabigo sa paggawa ng isang bagay kesa magtagumpay sa paggawa ng wala."

"iba ang walang ginagawa sa gumagawa ng wala."

"iba ang informal gramar sa mali!!!"

" Para san ba ang cellphone na may camera? Kung kailangan sa buhay un, dapat matagal na kong patay."

Top 10 Romantic Pick Up Lines

Reposted from: Advice... with Dr. Julia Chicken

Came across this on my blog hopping and I think it's simply funny and wanted to share.

I think these just might be the best pick up lines around!

Top 10 Romantic Pick Up Lines

1. Hello, my name is Ingo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to... hey, you don’t have six fingers on your right hand. I’m also not seeing a ring on your left hand.

2. I was so enchanted by your beauty that I ran into that wall over there. So, I’m going to need your name and number for insurance purposes.

3. Hello, I'm doing a survey of what people think are the cheesiest pickup lines. Would you choose 'Do you come here often?', 'What's your sign?', or 'Hello, I'm doing a survey of what people think are the cheesiest pickup lines'?

4. Your good looks don't intimidate me. (Walk away)

5. I can tell by the way you're ignoring me that I fascinate you.

6. You know when our children say, "Daddy, how did you meet mommy?" I'm gonna have to tell them how difficult you were being.

7. Are you Natasha, my contact?

8. Are you from Tennessee? Because you're the only ten I see!
(You really have to be good to pull this one off – but I like it!)

9. Do you believe in love at first sight, or should I walk by again?

10. Do you come here often? No? Then I better work fast.

It takes skill to use even the best pick up lines. And that skill lies in just being you. Keep it real! If you’re funny, fine. If you’re not, you’re not, so don’t try!

If she likes you, whatever you say will sound like the most romantic pick up line she’s ever heard!

Mr. Fu, I Heart 'Chu!

Ever wonder why whenever you ride a cab in any part of Manila (or possibly the Philippines) that there's only one radio station you often hear?

ENNERRRGYYY FM! Kailangan pa ba i-memorizzzze yannnn?!

And because I ride the cab almost every single day, I can't help but notice this.

"Radio in the taxi's Mr. Fu! Mehh GANON?!"

"Yan din pinapakinggan namin!!!" (Notice the excitement with 3 exclamation marks in Atche's text)

"Tangna! Requirement ba sa taxi ang station na ito? Bwahahahahah!"

"Namanchhhhhhhh!"

That's how Vicky and I ended the night, talking about Mr. Fu and the unbelievably addicting radio station. Ooops, my night didn't quite end that way pala! *WINK* Hihihi!

Anyway, just last week while I was on leave, I was watching this show at QTV 11 "Ang PINAKA (The Most)" hosted by the 'energetic' Rovilson Fernandez and the topic was 10 Ways To Be more Pa-Sosyal (social). And may I just add, that I wasn't the least interested on watching it because I thought Rovilson hosted like crapppp! In fact, I find the show absurd. That's just me, you're entitled to your own opinion.

Anyyyyyway, I was about to change channels when I saw Mr. Fu being interviewed so I stayed on watching. This was the first time I saw him and it was nice to put a face on a voice you often hear. Surprisingly, he was pretty cute though too gay for my taste. (MEEHHH GANON?!!?) I find him hilarious especially when he comments about his callers and texters.

Last night he was reading an SMS from one of his listeners who were complaining about her relationship going amok. All they do nowadays was fight and make-up, fight and make-up and fight and make-up… sounds very, very familiar. I'm hoping that girl wasn't someone I now or she'd probably get an earful from me. HA-HA!

So Mr. Fu started commenting about it which goes like...

"Hay nako! Itapon nyo na sa buzzzura ang relasyon ninyo dahil wala itong kwenta! Mehhh ganon!? Ang dami-daming problemmma sa mundo para pagaksayahan ko kayo ng panahon. CHAROT! Mehhh ganon?! Blahhhh, blahhh, blahhh" (Translation: You're relationship's the least of my problems. You should throw your relationship to the garbage bin, where it belongs. There's a lot more problems in the world to worry about than that! Blah...blah..blah!)

And note that he inserts "Mehh ganon??!" at the end of each sentence. Not to mention, he sounds gay as hell. HA-HA-HA!

Truth be told, I may want to hook up with Mr. Fu to actually find out if he really says "Mehh ganon?! all the time, though I'm hoping not during sex. Could you imagine, while doing it he says that. Irritating, right? HAHAHAH!

So if this blog reaches you Mr. Fu, let's have coffee at bulabugin mo ang universe kohhh!

Gay, Gay-er, Gay-est

I started chatting at MiRC a long time ago and met a lot of great friends there. (Aimee, BabyJudge, Gadjo, Diesel, Mikaela, etc...) It was fun and we would usually hang out every Saturday at Starbucks Robinsons Malate and head for the notorious streets of Malate, Nakpil cor Maria Orosa to get crazy drunk and dance the night away. We even had a name, The Saturday Night Group. (Ok, you can stop laughing now.) Such were the days of being young and foolish.

But my chatting days were long over until I discovered this nifty MiRC version in Firefox, an add-on called ChatZilla. So now, every time I get bored at the office, I do a little chatting. Tee-hee!

So, I was chatting at ChatZilla a few days ago and I went inside the #bi-manila chat room. And what was supposed to be an innocent passing of time turned out to be an obsession of sorts on the colorful world of pretentious dinggerts!

Number 1: GAY

tripQCNoW> qc anyone?? got place here for some hot stuff... no efems or chubs... asti tripers r welcum for same, hav me priv8 tsong...


Yes, you read it right it was TSONG! And as if the term wasn't bad enough being on a gay chat room using BRO, TSONG, PARE, TOL, DUDE, he adds insult to injury by typing in a SMS/TEXT format. I mean, WTF! I assume because he can chat in the first place that 1. he's using a computer, no matter how Jurassic it may be and 2. that he isn't using his mobile phone. So why the HELL is he typing in abbreviated SMS/TEXT form? I just don't get it! I mean, I literally had a difficult time trying to decipher what this person's ad meant? Can you?

...asti tripers r welcum for same, hav me priv8 tsong...

WTF! I mean HUUUWWHHHAAATTT THE F*CK?! (HAHAHAHAH! Sorry a momentary lapse right there, can't help it. It's so damn funny)

I don't know if I should be extremely pissed or pity the person.

I mean, guys, mga KU-MARE, we all know why you're chatting on that room. It's called bi-manila for goodness sake. And for the benefit of non-chatters out there stands for bisexual manila, which in my opinion should be changed to "gay-manila" because I doubt if there still exists bisexuals in this day and age.

NEWSFLASH: If you s*ck C*CK or have been eaten alive at some point in your life, YOU'RE GAY! And even if you've screwed a million girls but enjoyed the one-time-big-time deal with another guy then YOU ARE QUEER! So stop pretending you're not! Note, I said IF you enjoyed it.

Now, if you were raped or some parlorista got you good then I guess I can let you off the hook. But as a general rule, if 'it' stands for another guy then you should re-evaluate your sexual preference, even if, you're being paid just to lay there.

Number 2: GAY-ER

str8_trpr> 23 mnila...DISCREET GOODLOOKING 4 same...CAM2CAM(face2face) sa YM now....BTW I DONT SHOW myself 1st sa WEBCAM but SURE TRADER if u r really discreet goodlooking..CAM2CAM(face2face) sa YM now

Simple. Look at his nick: "str8_trpr" (Straight tripper)

If you're tripping then by all means do as you like but to add that you're straight but chatting at Bi-Manila. HAHAHAHA!!! (--and one more) Who the HELL are you kidding? THINK mare, THINK!

Number 3: GAY-EST

hot_stuff> FREE EMBASSY GUESTLIST AND WILL S*CK YOUR C*CK FOR FREE -- 0920907****

WTF! Now THAT'S an ad! Never seen this one so I thought it was very much worth mentioning. 'Nuf said. (P.S. No, I didn't save the number.)

-0-

I remember when chatting using MiRC was a convenient way to meet more friends and even to a certain extent find a possible lover. What in G*D's name happened? 4, 5, 6 years ago? When did it become a cesspool for sex eyeballs and bastardization of one’s true self?

I guess with the advancement of technology the more people neglect true knowledge. Ironic, isn't it? How some gay guys stooped so low to reach that note?

Effing sad.

PEACE!

Now, people... CARRY ON, CARRY ON -- BACK to work!

Confessions Of A Complicated Love-A-Holic

Yes, I am a complicated person.

As someone once told me, people can easily fall in love with me but it would take a greater amount of effort to keep on doing so. And yet, as I recently found out, there are still quite a number of people who are very much willing to take the risk and go the extra mile, which I find very comforting.

But what really makes me complicated? Let me give you a quick rundown so please indulge me a little. Anyway, you always have the option to close this window if you find this, for a lack of better term, “uninteresting for your taste”.

I easily fall in love if I’m extremely attracted to someone. I tend to overlook a lot of standards, which causes me (more often than not) tragic heartaches. Basically, that list I came up with a long time ago of people my ‘type’ goes out the window. AND YET, when I’m NOT attracted to someone, I don’t have the guts to tell him off. I usually wait for their interest to wither away. Good or bad? You tell me.

I can get ‘clingy’ to a fault. I tend to be possessive, ridiculously jealous, unbelievably paranoid and demanding. I would want to find someone to that I would go gaga over with and vice versa. I want to go crazy loving that person and not even think about anything else, at least for the first few months. Let’s deal with talking about the future of the relationship when we actually get there.

I am emotional. Very! I rarely fight with my partner and whenever I do I usually end up saying things that I would later on regret. And when he fights back, I cry. Just cry. I can be pissed one moment for certain things he does or does not do and then be utterly sweet the next. Yeah, call me crazy but that’s just who I am.

I have a lot of pet peeves. I hate waiting, people who don’t value time. I hate being late. I hate liars, addicts, nonchalance, and arrogance. I hate inconsiderate people. I hate fashion faux pas. I hate reckless drivers. I hate taxi drivers who scam. I hate tax. I hate corrupt politicians who pretend to care. I hate squatters. I hate people who don’t do their job well and yet pretend they’re overworked. I hate most of my colleagues. I hate bastards and jerks who woo you to believe they’re “the one.” I hate pretensions. I hate lousy service. I hate people who take too long to order in a fast food. I hate people who comment on things they know nothing about. I hate crowded bars. I hate people who have no regard for other people’s feelings. I hate pasosyal and maarte bitches. I hate pa-cool guys. I hate eating alone in a restaurant; it makes me feel like a loser. From escalators that don’t work to stupid people whose stupidity isn’t funny, the list goes on.

I am a self-proclaimed hopeless-romantic. I dream of romantic dates by the beach or a picnic in a garden that would blow my mind away, but I’ve become jaded recently. There are a lot of “great almosts” out there. I still believe in happy ever after though. I believe that happiness is a series of correct choices. I want someone who would understand me even if I talk in circles that make no sense. I love holding hands under the table and little things that would make me remember, like a particular scent or a remarkable moment. I love surprises. I love little trinkets of appreciation. I love long talks and long walks. I love a great conversation. I love magic on the first meeting. I love intimacy and passion. I love sex. I love being in love.

I am picky. I am very particular from my clothes, my food, my coffee, to my friends and dates.

I am eclectic when it comes to listening to music. I have almost 6000 songs in my iPod from Opera to jologs OPM… and still growing.

I love trivia and discovering new things. I am willing to try anything once. I hate clichés.

In this cynical world we live in, we can only dream of the day when we meet one person that can turn out more than you expect. I am turning 27 and all I ask is to care and love someone until then of my days. But I guess nowadays, it’s much, much harder to find.

The significant other that’s as much complicated as I am and won’t mind going that extra mile to make it work.

Thoughts On Dating

My friends would always say that I'm such a good catch. But recently, I'm finding that harder and harder to believe (only because recent dates seem to be proving to me otherwise). Sometimes, I can't help but think if there's really something wrong with me or has all the good men (gay or straight) become really that hard to find?

In our never-ending search for happiness, we date and date to try our luck on this game. And while we try to make a good first impression, there are really times when there's just no connection. So what does it take to make not just a good first impression but to make a lasting one?

When you meet a person for the first time in a date, there are certain rules that you follow. Here’s mine:



1. Prepare for your date but don't be over the top. Find out where you're going and dress appropriately. Don't wear an evening gown or a tux if you're just going for coffee or a movie. You don't want to intimidate the other person that much. Be comfortable on what you're wearing. Feeling good on what you're wearing always gives you more confidence.

2. Good Manners are always a must. Remember the things you were taught in school, Good Manners and Right Conduct. Don't curse or say inappropriate words and remember to say 'please' and 'thank you'. Nothing beats an educated person. After all, no one wants to hear the word SH*T or F*CK in every other sentence.

3. Talk about things you may have in common. Find that connection and start a nice conversation. Never talk about your EX's. No one wants to hear about it. That's why they are called, EX's -- they should remain just that. Don't talk about work; it's not a job interview.

4. Be confident (but don't overdo it). Over-confidence can be misunderstood as arrogance. If you're too shy, then try to open up a little. Don't clam up. Loosen up a bit.

5. Don't talk too much. Learn to listen and don't talk about yourself as if you want to reveal everything in one blow. Keep a little mystery. And don't ask too many questions. Especially inappropriate ones like, "What's your favorite position in bed?" Reserve that for the the 5th, 6th, or 10th date… if you get that far.

6. Be honest. No one likes a liar.

7. If you don't see the date to be going anywhere, have the courage to say so. Don't just stay there and endure the torture but if you can then at least let the date finish and be on your separate ways. Try your luck on the next one.

8. Keep the friendship. Don't feel bad if one did not like the other. It happens. You don't expect everyone to have the same feelings, right? So if you don't like the person or that person doesn't like you, remain friends. She/he might have another friend she/he could refer to you. Keep your network open.



9. Don't assume. Don't play the guessing game. Most likely, if there's a connection you don't even have to ask if the fondness is mutual. You'll go out again for sure.

10. Don't end on a bad note. Make sure you thank the other person for the company and the time. You did make an effort for this date after all.

Mind you, I do not claim to be an expert on dating. These are taken from my experiences and you're welcomed to share your own little DO's and DON'Ts on the matter. I've had my fair share of mishaps on dating. Stories you'd probably die laughing when you hear. But let me reserve that on future blog entries.

A date is an opportunity for you to meet someone. Meeting a person that could be your future lover, husband/wife, partner, or even friend, it doesn’t have to be too complicated. Remember, it's just another person you're meeting, so don't pressure yourself if it doesn't work. Throw back the fish and let's catch some more. Sooner or later, you might just end up catching the biggest fish at sea.

Another Break-Up Story

It was late in the afternoon and she was busy working on a report that her boss had earlier asked. "I know you're busy, but I just wanted to say I love you," she said over YM. He didn't reply after a few minutes and he said, "I've been thinking about us, about myself, about our relationship."

There was something definitely off about that statement, she thought. She felt like there was suddenly a cloud above her head and she became nervous.

"What exactly do you mean?" she asked.

"I think I need some space from this relationship," he wrote. "I don't want to be unfair to you and I know I cannot give you my 100% time. I just want to be honest about what I'm feeling and I thought you should know now."

She was speechless and it took about a minute or so for her to reply. She took a deep breath and replied, "So, are you breaking-up with me?"

"No..." he quickly replied. "I just need some space. I mean, I know I cannot give you my everything and I don't want to go into a relationship if I can't give my all. It's not you, it's me"

Oh no! He used the eternal break-up line. What a load of BULL, she thought. Where is this guy's originality? And as if this wasn't bad enough, he followed it up with; "I'll call you later. I don't want to talk about this here." WTF! He just started the whole thing here and suddenly he doesn't want to talk. This guy better grow some balls. At this point, she was so angry at herself for allowing this guy to have the power to make her feel bad. It was just 2 weeks. And just a week ago he was saying all sorts of romantic blah-blahs. "I'll take care of you," he said. I won't hurt you and I want this to work." And then suddenly this! What does this guy think, that she's an idiot born yesterday?

She felt so bad that she quickly logged off. She didn't even want to know what other crap this guy was about to throw at her. All she knew was she needed a cigarette…and most probably vodka.

"Another Red Horse and keep it coming," she said to the waiter while lighting another cigarette. It was her 3rd bottle and she was feeling woozy but she figured being tipsy was better than feeling shitty. She was angry not at him but at herself. She kept thinking if it was somehow her fault. In her mind, she went back and forth on the weeks that had passed. Thinking if there's anything she could have done differently.

Her mobile phone suddenly rang and it was he. She contemplated for a second if she would answer. "Hello," she said as cold as possible. He talked and she listened. It was the same load of SH*T he had already said over YM.

"You can be angry at me. You have the right to hate me," he said. "Damn right I should," she thought. But she didn't. She couldn't. More than anger, she was extremely hurt. She couldn't understand why this is happening to her all over again. Has she really fallen into this trap. He went on trying to explain why he came to that conclusion. And every word that he was saying seemed as insincere as with all his previous promises. He didn't even sound hurt. He sounded as if it was just another deal he needed to close. She decided to end the call before she threw her phone. The temptation of doing so was too great to resist if she kept on listening to his voice.

She woke up the next day with a huge migraine. She couldn't figure out if it was because of the 6 Red Horse or because she cried herself to sleep. Perhaps, it was both. She tried to get out of bed to get some breakfast. It was 8:30 in the morning. She had hoped that she would wake up later than that but she couldn't go back to bed.

The day went by and she needed to drink again. She needed to wake up for her coma-like day. She started sms-ing all her friends to find out who can join her.

After dinner, she quickly dressed and went to a friend’s house to drink the night away. She knew that this was just another temporary solution to what she was still feeling. But she needed it. She needed to be surrounded by friends and try to have a good time. She went back home 4 in the morning, wasted. But at least she had a great time.

-0-

She wrote to try and confront the pain. She will be better again soon. She has been in worse situations before. This was nothing compared to that. But still, it hurts. She doesn't know when her pain will go away but at least she's trying. Trying to forget about this nightmare. As for him, she wishes him well. She hopes not that he will come to his senses and go back to her. No, she didn't want that because she knew it would not happen. And if ever by the slimmest chance that it does, she doesn't know if she'll even have the heart to take him back. It was over. She knew that. Enough grieving. No more drama. She hopes that someday, when he meets another guy, it won't be like this. She had learned her lesson. Time to move on.

He was right, IT WAS NOT ME, IT'S YOU!

The Five Fast Facts Tag... Love, Live, Laugh, Let Go and Learn.

Ten Years Ago: My Sweet (or should I say Not-So-Sweet) Sixteen. It was the first time I found out my heart's capacity to love. And the trigger, called Vincent. We met at Giraffe. A popular hang-out that catered to both sexuality (gay and straight). Then situated in 6750 Ayala, it had a variety of people, from the young club goer to the oldies that needed a quick lay. It was here dancing to the tune of "I'm Honry all night long..." and "If you could read my mind..." when I fell madly in-love. Next thing I knew, we were holding hands, slow-dancing to the the club beat. It was also this year that I found out that the wonders of love and being in a relationship, no matter how grand, SUCKED big time when it was time to break up. Not to mention, it caused me temporary insanity. I vowed never again. Or at least not until the next virus comes along. Exactly a month later, TA-DA!


Five Years Ago: 21. The guys' official debut. This was when a boy turned into a 'man.' Or in my case, HURRAAHH to the gay guy within. This was the year I got into a life-changing accident. I was robbed and stabbed along the streets of P. Tuazon in Cubao. Long-story. For more than a month, I could not even go out of the house. I was too scared to even see other people apart from my own family. And even with them, I was shaky. It was a tough year and it took me months to recover from this ordeal. This was also the year my 2 year partner and I broke up when I caught him cheating. In a nutshell, a year I'm willing to forget.


One Year Ago: Wiley. 'Truly-madly-deeply', insanely involved. Love-life, turned kaput in a month. Career on the other hand was going pretty well. Traveling a whole lot and was promised a promotion. And with this I learned a lot. I learned to accept things as they are and not try and change things or people. As they say, only seasons change NOT people. You simply close your eyes and hope that tomorrow the sun will shine a little brighter.


One month ago: I was in Malaysia. I met 43 and 23. I'm still single now, so I'll let you do the math. :) Also bought a new toy: my Nikon d60. 1000 over pictures in a week. A good buy for me. It sparked my long-sleeping passion for photography.

3. Somewhere Down The Road by Barry Manilow
4. Better Days by Dianne Reeves
5. Part Of Your World by Ariel (Little Mermaid) --- HAHAHAHAH!!!

Done my part, shout-out to my bestfriend, Nat... your turn!

Superficial

"I want someone who I'm attracted to physically and have a connection with emotionally. Is that such a crime?" I said with such vigor.

He was starting to piss me off. I guess I was upset because he kept calling me superficial. Maybe I am, but aren’t we all?

Would Cinderella have been attracted to Prince Charming if he looked like Shrek? The only reason Fiona eventually got hitched with him was because she turned out to be an ogre too. Even Bell (Beauty) was not attracted to Beast instantly right? Lucky for her Beast turned out to be handsome at the end. Would she have been fascinated with him if he remained the Beast? Maybe so, but like all fairytales, it ended on a happy note. Go figure.

So why would it make you superficial to find an attractive partner? Or at least someone you’re attracted to initially. I want that! We all do, whether we would like to admit it or not.

Yes, you may find beauty beneath the ugly but would you consider even dating ‘ugly’ if you’re not the least bit attracted on a certain level?

Cue song: Humanap ka ng panget at ibigin mong tunay… (‘wag na uyyy, wag na, wag na)

Ok, so everyone deserves a chance to find love too and while physical appearance may not matter to some, it does matter to most. We all live in very cynical world and having certain preferences doesn’t make us lesser people. We’re just specific.

Tall, dark, and handsome.
Fair, cute, and small.
Chubbies,
Leans, medium builts, or muscle sculpted.
Adonis/Athena-like features.
Short haired or long.
Clean or mullet cut.
Smooth or hairy.

Preferences, we all have them.

But more often that not the ideal physical look that we want to find in a partner, they do not have.

That’s why it’s called preference, not requirements. It’s nice to have but not a prerequisite.

At the end of the day, you just want someone to connect with. You want to meet someone that would make your life a little more meaningful. It’s an additional reason for you to wake up each morning and just be happy. A person that when you meet, you hear bells, chimes, Angels singing Hallelujah or even Bocelli. Not a big gong or a voice saying “Run AWAY quick!”

Searching it on the omniscient Wikipedia I found these results.

Superficial is a general term meaning "regarding the surface", often metaphorically. Both in the literal as in the metaphorical sense the term has often a negative connotation based on the idea that deeper parts are also important to consider.

Now tell me, is it such a crime?
