Disasters Strikes Me!

Striking Disasters hits me My g-mail still won't work, anyone willing to lend help? I need to open and see my emails badly.

Today was the day...I woke up this morning thinking that I will watch The Amazing Race 5as soon as I flip the tv open...but viola! The show is on a special airtime, I didn't even know..so yeah, a new zit pops up because of my lack of sleep and a "no-show" Amazing Rae on tv. I ended up watching Love Actually , it was really a sweet movie and a funny one..imagine ending up with someone that you are doing a "naked-film" with. Hugh Grant, once again, captured my dear heart he is just too handsome... and oh, I love british accent, they are cute, definitely a plus in my list of "choice for a soon to be boyfriend"!

So yesterday, haven't you heard that I am going to be okay? Went to school to pass our paper, officially we got 3.0 in our course card, and thank God I won't be coming back to school anytime soon...but now I consider myself offficially a B.U.M. person. Went to Galleria (been there a couple of times, but not so often) the place is nice although I was surprise that the movie ( Princess Diaries 2 ) cost alittle bit high, how much? P 150! It seems like I've been to greenbelt to see it. But it was okay, because the sits are comfy and very cozy, the arm handler even have matress! Amazing..they did a good job, and for P 150 it is better than Greenbelt. I'm not a Greenbelt-movie-theater fan, because I think the sits are too high, the sits are too small, I think good sits should be comfy, wherein you can move around... So after that I went home (pretty much late already, the rain is hard so driving is a bit tricky!) then I watched Le Divorce half of the movie I couldn't understand since I don't speak French, but I'm willing to learn...I'm encouraging my sister to take French as one of her foreign language subjects -- then she could teach me! But it was a nice so-so movie, Kate Hudson and Naomi Watts look awesome! The story is basic and simple, revovles around divorces...but nice, try to watch it..better learn some French first before watching it!

Ciao!!

B.U.M = official word to describe me

Oh-la-la-la...my blockmates yahoo messenger current status is the following: can't find a job? Be an official bum , another emailed our exclusive yahoo groups with this message: Hi guys! What are you doing? Me? Official bum at home...let's go out sometime

True.I don't want to be a bum, but I don't want to look for work either, I mean, I applied alot of applications for alot of different companies and waiting for their replies, but I DONT CARE! I'm not excited in getting working and all of those stuff...I guess, this girl just want to have fun! and that is what I am doing this past few days, officially bum and watching anything that my eyes get to see...of course, I do some cooking since it is one of my hobby!


I've seen lots of flicks that I wasn't able to see, this week alone I had seen: Princess Diaries 2(on cinema), Matchstick Men (so lovely, the story is great and Nicolas played a wonderful role!), Hidalgo (i cried and felt so great for Hidalgo--I never knew Hidalgo was the horse until I seen the flick), The Perfect Score (typical teen movie, a twist that is not that surprising, talk about cheating while friendships builds up!), Taking Lives, Le Divorce, Love Actually...and I'm still going to borrow some videos later...

Damn, I'm pissed off!!!

I wanna kill somebody, yes I want to kill somebody, kill somebody tonight! Okay, I really am mad and piss off!! This guy (unknown for some cause!) well, we are doing a project and of course there would be people who first pay the money and others that will only pay at the end of the projects! So I need the money badly right now, and asking money from my parents is not an option since I don't want to ask anymore (i've asked for so many things already -- I am ashame to ask for more!) so I told this guy to pay me since he is the only one left who didn't (still) pay me. So I text him and text him, until tonight I text him, because I really need it before this week ends. So he told me that he is busy and that I should get it myself! F**K him! I mean, he is the one who has debt and he is the one who is asking for me to drop by his house? He has a car and he can just go here easily...no problemo...and it is HIS DEBT after all, whether for the projects or not , it is still HIS DEBT!! (f**k f**k f**K) I want to strangle him and just kill him! ugh...so he told me that (i'll translate it in english) "i will pay you, don't you worry, if you really need the money you get it here, I'm not , not going to pay you..i just can't , after all it is not really my debt it is a project debt so it is not totally a debt-debt. If you have a debt over me are you sure you're going to drop it here? (I told him I WILL drop off the money if I was the one oweing him, after all I have shame. So now he is questioning my credibility if I really am going to do the stuff I am asking him to do! Of course, I will it is MY DEBT, I will pay for it --on TIME!) So why should i? I really am busy..." Ugh...can you imagine the jerkness of the guy? If you have known him you could imagine that by that text he sent to me, he is already firing mad..yeah he is an ill-tempered person...ow..I hate to say this, but I would love to see him not succeed in anything..he is a fucking asshole! (and I am not sorry for saying it!)


*For those who wants to argue with what I say or will advice me to give this guy a chance or maybe I didnt understand him...this is the thing I am going to tell you -- YOU DONT KNOW THE PERSON AND YOU DONT KNOW HIS ATTITUDE AND THE HELL, HIS LIFE! HE IS AN ASSHOLE GUARANTEED!


I'm so so piss off..

Can't help but cry...

I can't help but cry whenever I view the video of Kiss - Because I'm a Girl It is really something I love to watch and couldn't help but cry in the end..it is really traumatic...


Here are some questions:
1. If you love someone, are you willing to give up your own two eyes so that person can see again?
2. Are you sure that that person is the ONE ?

oh..don't mind me, I'm in deep emotions...maybe I'm gonna see The Notebook this weekend...*cries more*

Cooking Advice.

hiya...I was watching "Iron Chef" and learned something when cooking beef..I love beef so it is really a great advice.


"The cheek, the earlobe, the side of the nosetrils, and the tip of the nose" -- these are the ways for you to discover the temperature of a perfect beef. So it is like this:


cheek = rare
earlobe = medium-rare
side of nostrils = medium
tip of the nose = well-done

Great right? hope it helps!

*thanks for all the nice comments!*

Horror Flicks + Married couple?

The OFF THE PRESS VERSION 3 Borrowed VCD -- Acacia - it is a horror flick I hope that it makes sense though, I've seen alot of horror flick (from Asian) and mostly they don't make sense. Like the Tale of the Twin Sisters, Bangkok Hunted, The Grudge (which now has a US version starring Sarah Michelle), Momento, etc. Inner Senses and The Phone somehow makes sense though so you go watch those two... hum...


NEWS HERE AND ABROAD

Britney' s wedding was cancelled but who cares? But one couple did get married and broke it off along long time ago... Aaliyah and R.Kelly yes between their age gap, they were once - officially- married! Bet you don't know that? A sequel to the movie Spider Man will soon be out, but the word is that Tobey was about to quit the set since having a back injury but once he heard that Jake Gyellenhaal (Kirstin's ex-boyfriend) was to take the role of Spider Man he quickly said he is okay! And while one is trying to keep their role, an 007 agent quits, Peirce Bronson finally called it quits and decided to stop being the savvy, high-tech, handsome, James Bond. So director and staff are on the hunt on the next James Bond, all eyes lead to the actor star of Troy who is -- Eric Bana, he was chosen over Orlando Bloom, who was his co-star in the movie Troy. Mischa Barton , the O.C. star was freaking out on LAX when her car was towed because she park in a "tow-away" zone, she was freaking mad at the police and keep on shouting "where the hell is my car?" --Nice attitude right there! Did you know that before Kirsten Dunst was chosen to be Mary-Jane in Spide Man, Alicia Witt and Kate Hudson first turned it down? It is good because I don't think the role would suit their personality, I just couldn't imagine Kate going red-haired! Confessions of an Heiress a new book show casing everything that Paris Hilton has to be proud of, did you know that she wears contact lens to make her eyes blue? And she has a brown and curly hair not striaght? Hum...the fame and fortune really could make changes to you...I want to read that book and see her clothes and lifestyle...I want to be a heiress!!


**For those who are curious on how I get my news, I just gather them and report it in here...you have no right to claim it as yours because I worked hard on researching for this...please ask permission and credit this blog.**

Eternal Suffering of a Jobless Person

What a title that I decided to put up! So today, like other normal, bum days, I am sitting in front of the computer wandering what to do next because life has simply been a bore these past few days. And I've been so bum that I've seen a lot of different flicks, local and international , on screen, off screen, and those that haven't yet been open on the cinema. I got so much stuff to watch with so little time (liar!)


'Twas Last Night
Anyways, last night, I've seen I will survive , a local flick that is really great story revolves around 4 friends life story. One of them is gay with two sons, one is a mother who is so beautiful that her daughter get so insecure because she isn't pretty like her mom, one is an OFW who has been seperated with her daughter and husband (who is also an OFW in another country) for more than 6 years and finding out that her husband got another son from another co-OFW who just recently died, lastly, a woman who loves to have sex with his husband but wasn't able to seduce him then one night, the husband was drunk and they finally had sex, finding out at the end that she got STD because her husband was positive (that is why he don't want to have sex with her, so that he won't get sick too) oh, did I mention that they have a son who is very sexually active but wasn't positive with STD? Okay, the story is a bit complicated to explain, but go and watch it for there are many funny scenes in between and definitely SEXy scenes and witty thoughts that might interest you.


Amazing Race 5
Too bad I'm not fond of riding MRT, I saw a forum that this guy was riding the same train as the contestants where. FYI: for those who don't know it yet, Feb 2004, the Amazing Race 5 had a pit stop in here...both in Manila and Palawan so for those who love them like me, we miss it! Ugh...if you have a crush on Brandon himself check out his ultra-delicious body on this site http://www.whineandcheese.net/whine/2004/08/tar5_brandon_sh.html *YUM YUM!!*


Oh I am back on my book reading..went to the mall yesterday and bought two tops, the mall was so crowded because of the sale (i hate crowded places!) but it was nice, bought some make-ups and um, accesories, and undies!

Anyone Want To Read?

A Blissful novel My sister got these books because she has an "international literature" subject, I saw the book she is going to read... A midsummer nights dream by Shakespeare and I think it is better to watch it in the theatre (i mean in opera houses!) I would love to watch plays... (it is one of my hidden desire!) Next, she told me this is a good book Like Water For Chocolate she told me it is a good luck but currenlty I am in the mood of MOVIES so no time to read...till here...

13 Going On 30

The movie was terrific I've learn alot of lessons from it. It was a good movie because although it was light (in the sense of story) it has a profound approach in life... I never thought while I was still 13 to ever be 30...bah-hum...but as I look back right now? I was this chubby kid who don't know fashion, don't know styles, don't have poise, and was really indeed "genius" All was gone and wash up on drain...okay, so I still have excess baggage --I'm trying my best to get it remove in the gym (w/c until know I am still too lazy to go to!) , but I did improve on my fashion sense, thanks to myself and friends influence! Also poise is a must, not totally 100% pure but um..getting there?! Haha...There are lots of thing I regret in my life, stuff that I wish could have change and never did happen, unlike Jenna who had a glimpse of the future and was able to change it, I am stuck in my own world that is continously revolving but not curing me at all. I have so many things I wish I did before and now, the opportunity is all gone..missed it. I wish I could go back to my own 13 again, so that I can erase and change the things in my life...maybe even make a huge difference in the world...I also want to have a 30, flirty, thriving life like Jenna (minus all the enemies and sex she had!) but I guess it is up to me to make it, after all I still got 10 years ahead of me before I reach that state...wonder if I'll have family by then? (it is already hard enough to find the perfect man, so I guess finding the perfect husband would be a 1 out of 100) *crossing my fingers*

Not to mention that I also seen Eurotrip, a soon-to-be-college student hunting for the love of his life!, then I got to see Kill Bill 2 , kinda boring at the start but it was fun in the latter part. Oh, I've also seen Scooby Doo 2 yesterday night, I was so beat up but what the heck, I love watching! Oh the Rundown| was also great, nice work the Rock *drooles*...tomorrow would be Laws of Attraction , and thanks to my sisters friend who is addicted in all Asian stuff, I got to borrow the following DVD's -- IL Mare, The Classic, The Most Beautiful days in my life, & Shiri <--this movie beat the Titanic in the selling, they all said it was the greatest love story ever. Oh, I also got Summer Scent series ...




Amazing Race 5 <--tomorrow do watch it, after that they would finally show the one in the philippines!! Yuppie!
The O.C., One Tree Hill <-- fantastic series' go watch it in ETC, thank God they had shown it...wonder when will "The Simple Life 2 " be shown?

They all got great jobs!

Bah-humbug! I'm currently not feeling boredom right now since I got lots of movies to see, it really give me the thrills on what is next on the list...I still couldn't borrow The Butterfly Effect it is always out! Maybe I'll try my luck later..I had seen Laws of Attraction and I could say it is a good movie, I don't know but alot of critics think it is just another nonsense or low-sense romantic movie...I think it is good though in a way...one thing is for sure...they have great jobs! I'm so jealous...like in 13 Going on 30 she is this big-time magazine editor, while in the Law of Attractions they are this big shot lawyer and even maybe a ligitator...I am so jealous!! and look at me...a jobless bum...

Il Mare

Oh my gawd..I press the wrong key and all the things I type in was deleted... UGH!! Damn..now I got to repeat it again...



Il Mare which means the "SEA" is a fantastic movie, it would definitely make my "classic" list of movies, I didn't cry in this movie but surely it touched my heart...the story really is terrific and makes great sense ..although it was magical...imagine a mailbox that could bridge to times and hearts together..isn't that amazing? Go see and watch it is definitely to love for!



Yesterday I've also seen (finally) The Butterfly Effect it was a movie wherein Ashton wasn't that pretty at all, in fact I don't like his looks on that movie, but definitely it is one of his best..the story is so different and uniquely made and the characters are very interesting since they change so much each time he made it change...and I was pretty amuse by the way the story was made, in life, a single move really could change everything, like the butterfly who can move or cause a typhoon with just a single trutter. It was really something, bow down to the director for captivating my heart and soul with the movie. I wonder if someone can do that? Hum...seems too good to be true...


No offense to people who like it but I think Haunted Dolls sucks...the story is somehow nonsense not totally but, really...it could be better..I don't get it why most Asian horror films ended up making a nonsense story. All they care about is making it creepy through their creepy sound effects and movements ( which is also basic) but that is what scares us the BASIC stuff. So anyways, it wasn't the worst movie (horror) that I've seen, but I guarantee you it is better if you watch it at home, or it is just a waste of movie. Oh, I haven't seen Wishing Stairs my sister told me it was also nonsense so I'm not rushing it...For those who are interested.. the worst horrow film I have seen was Bangkok Haunted it does not make sense at all!! how about yours? and what is the best?


I've seen Wild Things 2 too and it is something that really has prove itself once again...twisted characters meet twisted story. I really like Wild Things be it the first one or this second one..sure is a great movie to watch..


Amazing Race 5 will be finally showing the 11th leg which will happen here in Manila, Philippines I'm so excited on what the challenges would be...I think it would involve "pansit" and "balut" ...good luck to Brandon and Nicole!!

Goodliness Fat Reducing Capsules

Is it really effective? I am being tempted to buy, but I am still on the verge of thinking about it and really want to research more about the product. Unfortunately, there is nothing about it on the internet except for people who are selling it. I really wanted to know more about the product before buying one. Although it is cheap, herbal, and alot of the sellers are saying it is w/o side-effects and the effect is really seen and effective...hum..any help?


Product originated from Thailand..so maybe people from Thailand can help me?

Happy Birthday to a friend + what a day it was..

Did I mention that I got a haircut last Sunday?, of course, my hair is still long..I don't want to cut it short...haha...I kept on telling the guy/gay to make sure it stays long because I'm planning to rebond my hair once again!


Yesterday, I went to G4 yup, this is the life of a jobless person...as if I got money! Went to eat with my sister and mom, then we went to see Anacondas, it was so thrilling, I screamed (silently) to some parts and my sister for the first time was shock at one of the scene (me too!) it was really a unexpected move by that anaconda...anyways, I love snake so I'm not that scared of them except if they started biting (especially those venomous snakes) But they are pretty cute too...love the yellow one..

Movie Marathon once again...

and the list never ends... I borrowed 4 new dvd's... The Lady Killers , Dark Harvest , Haunted Office , Cat in the Hat (Dr. Seuss), I think Haunted Office is a good movie? I haven't seen it yet I'm currently deciding what to see first...hum...?



Was able to see The Classic , korean film, this morning and it was really so romantic and sad (for some parts) I advise you to go watch it...it is definitely a hit classic.


Thanks to everyone for the lovely comment...off to marinate the beef

An excitement game on the TV + Haunted Office

Never thought waiting has a reward I am once again going to watch The Amazing Race 5 of course, I love the episode today...so while waiting for it..I saw the game of NCAA and there had been lots of wacky things happening...the referee did something wrong and the coach of the team just freak out and went half way across the court to talk to the commisioner which is a techinal foul according to the reporter (i don't know anything about foul on the mid-court) but it was sure fascinating to see...all the people in the coliseum was shouting and just raving mad...I think it is a good game though (although I only see the last part.haha!) but it was really a neat game to see...people were called out of the game or kick out or something..anyways...'nuff said!


Haunted Office was the first video I've seen from the videos I've rented...it is a great one, it is not boring or nonsense so I suggest for everyone to go and borrow it...cool features and cool suspense and mystery stories...it is really something..so go borrow it!!

Mike Meyers

A great actor, a great comedian I salute Mike Myers for all the works he did, he sure is one of a hell-actor! He makes people laugh in ways that no other comedian could do. I think he would definitely be the top comedian of this century. Like right now, I just finish watching Cat in the Hat

I'm now learning to use Style Sheets in creating website, I think it is easier and cool and effective to all types of browser. Sorry but only IE browsers would see this beauty. I think it sucks on Mozilla because it does not support DIV coding...well, too bad...sorry but change your browsers if you want to I don't have time to change it for other browsers...totally satisfied with IE. Maybe next time on the new layout I might not use DIV and use CSS for everyone's convinience!

Along Entry that may bore you...

I miss tabulas! oh I miss the internet..hum...kinda freaky for I only left not posting and not going on the internet for about 2-3 days...that is so not me!


[EMMY AWARDS]
It was such an amazing night for them, tiring day for me..I wasnt able to watch it this morning so now I am watching it on the primetime telecast..and well, I already sneek a peek on who is going to win...of course, I couldn't wait any longer for the list of winners..I want to congratulate Sex and the City - Sarah Jessica Parker, and Amazing Race for winning, of course, in different categories! I am looking right now on the clothes of the people on the red carpet..hum...some looks good...some um...could do better next year? If you want to see it to...go to www.eonline.com
Opinion:Mischa Barton didn't look good on her gown..she could do much better...HBO you bag alot! Jessica Parker looks hot on a simple yellow-white gown...


The whole week, I was starting the October-halloween celebration by watching almost all the horror films I haven't seen...like Water Demons, House of the Dead, Dark Harvest, Dead People, Haunted Office, Feng Shui It was a long week that was full of scary movies...some worth watching, some..um...just throw the story away!


[SEPTEMBER 18 2004 - SATURDAY]
Happy Birthday to my twin brothers...I thought they are 16 already, but damn they are only 14..hum along way from my age...anyways I am happy for them I hope they have a fun year and more birthdays to come! The day was filled with activities and really an exhausting night...I went home around 2 am in the morning.. My mom, sister, aunties, and our secretary partied the night out by watching the last full show of Feng Shui , I thought it was going to be a scary movie but it was pretty okay, decent one and of good quality compared maybe to other local horrow movies..this would top the list... but other than that...I don't think it is that scary...Kris Aquino was not made for the role -- I don't like her acting..it is too blant! [yeah, as in plain old, too normal nothing new!]


[SEPTEMBER 19 2004 - SUNDAY]
I woke up early although I slept so late...I wasn't able to rest well, I'm going to the mall to do some shopping, but How did the mall get so empty? there are no things that are worth buying for...except for the shoes that does not have my size (damn!) and a loose capri pants that doesn't carry my size (ugh...) Totally sucks...I was hoping to buy something and (you know me!) I will not left the mall empty handed --so I bought some books instead...2 of them...and I'm finished with the other one (just today!) The mall was on sale so people are totally clamoring on everything as if it is the end of the world...sometimes you got to love/hate sales!

Jacky Chan new movie!



The long awaited Jackie Chan film "New Police Story" held a spectacular opening ceremony on Sunday at Beijing University.


Cast members Jackie Chan, Charlie Yeung, Nicholas Tse, Charlene Choi and Daniel Wu teamed up to promote the film and Jackie Chan was appointed as Peking University's No.1 special professor for the Art Department at the promotional event.


The movie, directed by Benny Chan, was shot with a budget of 85 million yuan, or 10 million US dollars.


Contrasting with Jackie Chan's recent movies, "New Police Story" will pay more attention to realistic action, with minimal use of special effects.


Oh my gawd! Star studded cast and a star studded budget too... good luck on this one...I would be waiting for this to hit the cinema!

WASTED time in my life...

just sit one day and realize... that life could have a wonderful meaning but then people tend to neglect it? or YOU just forget the importance. Yes, I am ranting tonight...but this could mean alot of things...it might get to you...or just a sting that runs from your left ear to the right...but hell, I am writing it anyways...


I love writing, it is one of my passion in life, and although I didnt pursue my career in writing or even journalism (to the least), I thought that 'hey, anyone can write!' some writers didn't became writers, and some who didnt took any writing lessons or whatever degree became writers -- take Madonna for example, her children's book has sold out millions of copies and was a huge success and yet she was a 'ma-material girl' not a writer, another is Paris Hilton, though a lot critic didn't like the book that much...but as one person says -- "Writers are born not made" (okay, I did change the word actor to writer, but same same) So here I am ranting about the wasted life I am...I could have been a writer but I didn't pursue it...now, I am here in my room..ended up to be a Marketing Management Major (big deal!) It wasn't my dream...but was a start of my future (if ever I am going to have one!) Now, 5 million people don't have work...more than half of those people that are working don't enjoy their work, then half of those that enjoys it, enjoys it because they got it by being an heir. Hum..the world seem cruel, but that is how the world works...sucking my life...wasting it, trashing it -- totally! I wasted my time taking up a course I never love or even like in the first place...how WASTED is that?



Spent couple of years dating guys, loving each one, hurting and loving again to end up with just one thing on my mind -- 'where the hell is he right now?' Maybe snoozing with someone, maybe dating someone, maybe just like me...wasting his life looking for that perfect someone (who is ME), but why couldn't life make it easier? Just in the snap, your destiny floats right in front of your very own eyes? Why WASTE time? But then again, if those things happen in just a snap, we wouldn't be mysterious, emotions will not happen...things in life would be predictable or just plain boring...so that is why I am WASTING my time looking for Mr. Right...when all along everyone who came into my life is Mr. Wrong. Darn... I just hope Mr. Right would be here soon...or else, as I usually tell my parents -- ' don't want to be married anytime soon, and anytime EVER!' I don't get it, I just one day realize I don't want to be married...I am not bitter as some might think, but it is because I am selfish...I am thinking more of myself than the relationship, like for example, I wouldn't trade travelling around the world for a guy (look how shallow I am?) I will never give up all the Jimmy Choo's, Manolo Blanhik's that I might have for a single guy...maybe God knows this and was thinking 'I don't think you would satisfy a guy with your love, because you are first inlove with your self' and I could retort back that 'I was hurt and in pain so much that right now, material things matter to me the most than the relationships' I don't want to hurt again, I don't want the feeling of pain in my heart again, I had it, not only once...so I dont want to WASTE it anymore.


I spend so many money buying stuff that I personally don't like, shame shame to me for using lots of my parents money for craps that I don't either wear or use...what a WASTE. If only I am an heir to a something-throne...then I will not think of anything that I had WASTED. Right now, being jobless, makes it more important to think of what to do and what to buy or how to use your money wisely, because it is not easy to be jobless, yeah people might think you just sit around and relax but hey! I am WASTING time, money, life, and my career...Just because it is a holiday does not make an excuse for splurging, well, exceptions might happen, but not always...imagine splurging almost more than you can afford everytime you have a holiday to celebrate..I don't want to live in a shattered (literally!) house -- I don't think I would get use to that crap...Oh what a WASTE...







Just have to share this lines from Paris Hilton's book - Confession of an Heiress

Rule Number One: Heiresses aren't needy. If an heiress is feeling a little insecure, she should go shopping. And if she still doesn't feel any better, she should go to Paris. Or Saint-Tropez. For the weekend, if necessary. Because there's always another fun place to visit, another set of fun people, another cute outfit waiting to be snapped up. There's no reason for an heiress to ever EVER be bored.


Rule Number Two: An heiress should never be too serious. Being too serious is very dull, and is a sign you have no imagination or personality. No one really wants to hang out with anyone too serious. An heiress is so confident -- and why shouldn't she be? -- that she should always be able to make fun of herself. First of all, if you make fun of yourself, no one gets upset when you make fun of other people. And if you make fun of yourself first, no one gets the urge to do it behind your back. You've taken all the power away from them -- AND made them laugh. It's a double whammy.


Enough ranting and back to the real world...WASTE is my word for the day..

Our Dying Country

Bless you... I feel terrible for my friend Pamela, I mean, if I were in her spot, I would certainly die too...(my credit card taken away from me? *sobs*) It is Christmas soon and being with no money is a crime...


I feel sorry for our country, alot of people are starving to death and dying, our government sucks at handling the problems in our country and instead of helping the country advance, they drag it down to hell...

I have a suggestions to lot of people out there, when we are riding out cars you will usually see kids on the side street asking, no...begging for money and I feel so sorry for them, we give them few coins and they are happy! Imagine it! A few coins and you satisfy them, why? because most of those kids hand their money to another person, I think the money does not go to their pockets but to another person...and it is getting worse everyday because they are increasing in numbers...good thing my father's friend thought of something, every Christmas, he makes loot bags of food (candies, etc, anything that ia edible) then he give it out to street childrens when they knock on his car. this way we are helping those kids be relief from their hunger and not give them money that will only go to their leader. I think it is a good idea, and it is an inspirtation...


Now, there are conflicts in the country regarding the election (past) which has already been done and the winner declared! Of course, the loosing party won't accept it and here goes another battlefield...so they want to recount and recount because they really said they were nadaya , politically assassinate due to the unjustice ballots counting. Gosh! this is a major happening every time a president wins, can they just accept defeat and move on with life? Oh, wait-- they can't because they lost their money on the campaign, they need to seat on the government's chair to recover the lost -- oh , wait again...someone is already doing that...someone who is now on the government throne. Who is it? Who knows...he/she is great in corruption, that is their best quality and the top most hobby!


Now the government has also lost their mind in thinking that everyone should donate a piece and the rich will donate millions, my gawd! Are they not thinking? As long as their are people corrupting the nation all those donations would mean nothing! It will once again end up in anothers pocket and to be wasted by another so called top officials! (I saw their yearly salary in the television and I could not help but be amaze at the six digits and more than six digits I saw!) I though that being a government is to serve the public and give everything to the nation to help it be re-build? It seems the officials themselves are helping to rebuild their own kingdom and mansions and left nothing for the nation. Well, there goes another wasted donations that the Filipinos will be loosing in their pockets. "Just take it all..."


Those government lover may hate the post that I did today...but it is really true and happening...you just hate to admit it...

Why do guys look at the boobs and butt of girls?

Yes I did it again!Did what? I rebond my hair again!! So what? I am loving it! Haha...the new do is really good, it smells good too...and unlike other parlor that tells you not to wet your hair, I CAN WET MY HAIR! I feel so light and hair-perfect!




I got to share this...but it is in tagalog...I'll try to translate it in English next time, but for now, enjoy this whimsical article:


Bakit Mahilig Ang Lalaki Tumingin Sa Boobs At Pwet

Contributed by tabachoi (Edited by alteredbeast)
Sunday, August 08, 2004 @ 10:26:07 PM (read 1834 times)

MRT. Bus. Jeep. Mall. Classroom. Office. Bar. Kahit saan ka yata pumunta, makakakita ka ng isa o grupo ng mga lalake na matitigilan at mamamangha sa presence ng isang babae (minsan ex-lalake) na may malaking boobs o magandang hugis ng pwet. May mambabastos, may mapapangiti, may mapapatitig, at ang karamihan ay gagamit ng kanilang "pornographic memory" para magamit pag-uwi sa bahay.

May isa akong nakilalang babae na malaki yung boobs, 36C. Naiinis siya kasi lahat ng kausap niyang lalaki hindi maka-maintain ng eye-to-eye contact. Isa na ako dun sa mga lalaking yon. Dati naman kasama ko yung girlfriend ko. Nag-away kami dahil hindi ko namalayan na nasundan ko pala ng tingin yung isang babaeng mala-Jennifer Lopez ang likod. At nang minsang nakasakay ako sa bus at walang maupuan, hindi ko mapigil lingunin nang lingunin ang cleavage nung isang nakaupo.

Dito ako napatigil at napaisip. Manyak ba ako?

Ano nga ba ang dahilan kung bakit mahilig tumingin ang lalaki sa boobs at pwet ng babae? Tsaka bakit halos lahat ng lalaki, hindi lang ako? Bakit madaming nagpapalaki ng boobs para mapansin lang? Bakit prerequisite ang hugis ng katawan para masabi mong maganda talaga ang isang babae?

Sa paghahanap ng mga kasagutan sa mga tanong na ito, sinubukan kong mag-search sa Google. Maniwala kayo sa akin, mahirap maghanap ng kasagutan sa tanong na "Why men love looking at big breasts" sa internet. Hindi kasagutan ang ibibigay sa yo kundi mga links sa porn sites. Buti na lang may kakilala ako na nagsabi sa kin na tumingin sa "evolutionary psychology". Evolution as in Darwin, Psychology as in Freud.

Ayon sa mga sites at forums na nagdi-discuss ng evolutionary psychology, iisa lang ang direction ng evolution. Ito ay ang pag-maximize ng chances sa survival. Ang lalaki ay pipili ng babae na makakapag-ensure ng survival ng kanyang offspring, at ang babae naman ay pipili ng lalake na makakapagbigay ng magandang genes.

Hindi na ako nagtataka kung bakit ang mga babae ngayon ay tumitingin agad sa CAR-acter at sa PESO-nality ng lalaki. Ito ay rooted sa mga ninuno natin na ang pinakamagaling na lalaki sa isang tribe ay ang pinakamaraming maiuuwing game mula sa hunting nila. Natural na sa babae ang maghanap ng isang "provider".

Gayun din na ang fixation ng lalaki sa malalaking boobs ay rooted daw sa idea na ang mga ito ay makakapagbigay ng "nourishment and sustenance". Kapag malaki ang boobs, mas malaki ang chances ng survival ng offspring. Ang pagtingin naman sa pwet ay natatagpuan din sa ating mga kapatid na primates, specifically ang mga chimpanzees, na kung saan pag "available for sex" ang isang babaeng chimp, inilalapit nya ang kanyang pwet sa head monkey para lamas-lamasin, kurut-kurutin, at amuy-amuyin. Pag nagustuhan ito ng alpha male monkey, doon sila magse-sex. Nakakatawa kung iisipin, pero ang pagtingin ko pala sa boobs at pwet ay bahagi lang ng aking nature as a male. Ika nga ng tatay ni Jim sa American Pie, "it's a perfectly natural thing". Kung totoo ito, bakit masama ang tumingin? Tingin lang naman e. Walang hawak, walang hipo. Tingin lang.

Siguro nga, kultura lang ang nagpabago ng perspective natin sa natural urge na ito. Dahil sa relihiyon, ang pagtingin sa katawan ng babae ay nilagyan ng label na "pagnanasa". Dahil sa media, ang mga artistang babae na maganda ang boobs at pwet ay tinatakan na "sex symbol" o "pantasya ng bayan". At dahil sa marketing, ang liposuction, breast enhancement, at kung anu-ano pang retoke sa katawan ay ginagawa "to enhance the self confidence of a woman". Ang mga revealing na bra, ang mga push-up bra, ang mga binebenta sa TV na breast creams, yung cycling shorts na nage-enhance ng butt cheeks, ay tinatatakan na "personality enhancement apparel/tools".

At shempre, ang mga lalaking katulad ko na tumitingin lang ay tinatatakan na "manyak".
