Why Chocolate is better than sex

July 29, 2008 at 2:38 am (Anything goes, Humor) (, , )

I find this article very funny. Whoever wrote this one was very much smart to analyze the difference of chocolate and sex. Read on folks

  1. You can GET chocolate.
  2. Chocolate satisfies even when it has gone soft.
  3. You can safely have chocolate while you are driving.
  4. You can make chocolate last as long as you want it to.
  5. You can have chocolate even in front of your mother.
  6. Two people of the same sex can have chocolate without being called nasty names.
  7. The word “commitment” doesn’t scare off chocolate.
  8. You can have chocolate on top of your workbench/desk during working hours without upsetting your work mates.
  9. You can ask a stranger for chocolate without getting your face slapped.
  10. With chocolate there’s no need to fake it.
  11. You can have chocolate at any time of the month.
  12. You can have as many kinds of chocolate as you can handle.
  13. You are never too young or too old for chocolate.
  14. When you have chocolate it does not keep your neighbors awake.
  15. With chocolate size doesn’t matter; it’s always good.

The boy

July 28, 2008 at 3:14 am (Love, Personal) (, )

I am your girlfriend
I want to be your girlfriend

I’m sitting on your bed
Im watching you through the window

I want you to kiss me today
I long for you to kiss me one day

I look at your text messages today
I wonder do you really mean what you say

I want you to call me
I want you to notice me

I talked to you through text messages today
You noticed me in the forum that day

We will be together forever
I will wait for you forever

You asked advice about your girls
You told me about your feeling towards me

I made a new friend today
Now I also have a boyfriend today

I hope this isn’t the start of a tragic ending
I hope this is the start of a wonderful beginning

Happiness or loneliness?

July 27, 2008 at 2:12 pm (Life, Love, Personal) (, , )

I can’t find the right words to make it as the title of this entr. Maybe the title fits. I don’t know, I just feel like writing it. I am overjoyed and I am so happy. Happy that I am scared to let it just slip away. I am clinging to this happiness. I once let go of the happiness for the sake of what is right but now, I am holding on to it. As long as I am happy. Does being happy also means I have to be selfish sometimes? Hmm, I think so. I think everybody does have a selfish side right? Not only me.

I know a lot of people will condemn me for choosing to be happy now. But right now all I can say is that, I really don’t care. For the longest time, I keep on thinking what other people will say, what people will think. Regardless that means of letting go of the things that makes me happy just to make everybody happy and pleased. But I realized as I mature, I cannot please everybody.

I was once like that role model girl, always do what is right. Afraid of bending rules in the game of love. I always play fair. But being fair always led me to broken hearts. While I sulk to sadness, other people enjoy the happiness that is suppose to be mine.

Now, I have the chance to be happy. And I intend to hold on to it, cling to it. I won’t let anybody take it away from me.

Movie Quote

July 27, 2008 at 8:57 am (Love) (, , )

Below are some of my favorite movie quote:

I love movies, and I’m always on the lookout for good films, those that are not only entertaining but have substance as well. I love movies that make me think, those that leave something for the mind to ponder on. I also love movies that have a romantic feel to it, not necessarily movies about love, but has accents of love that go straight to the heart and ring with truth… because they make me think about life in general. I’m a romantic comedy type of girl, but I also love other genres, like drama, suspense… a well written plot.

We get quotes from movies all the time and we even use some of them in our own lives… here are a few love quotes from romantic movies:

City Of Angels
I would rather have had one breath of her hair, one kiss from her mouth, one touch of her hand, than eternity without it. One.

When Harry Met Sally
I love that after I spend day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes. And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it’s not because I’m lonely, and it’s not because it’s New Year’s Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.

Alex and Emma
Some things are not meant to last, they just take a place in your heart and make you smarter the next time.

Runaway Bride
I guarantee that we’ll have tough times, and I guarantee that at some point one or both of us will want to get out. But I also guarantee that if I don’t ask you to be mine, I’ll regret it for the rest of my life cause I know in my heart you’re the only one for me.

The Hot Chick
You are the only person that can make my heart beat faster and slower at the same time.

The Princess Bride
Death cannot stop true love; it can only delay it for a little while.

Moulin Rouge
The greatest thing you’ll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.

My Best Friend’s Wedding
If you love someone you say it, you say it right then, out loud. Otherwise, the moment just… passes you by.

Fried Green Tomatoes
I wonder how many people never get the one they want, but end up with the one they’re supposed to have.

Good Will Hunting

Sometimes I wish I had never met you. Because then I could go to sleep at night not knowing there was someone like you out there.

Forces of Nature
I always thought that there was this one perfect person for everybody in the world, you know, and when you found that person the rest of the world kind of magically faded away, and, you know, the two of you would just be inside this kind of protective bubble, but there is no bubble, I mean if there is you have to make it, I just think life is more than a series of moments, you know, we can make choices, and we can choose to protect the people we love, and that’s what makes us who we are and those are the real memories.

Dooms day

July 25, 2008 at 7:58 am (Anything goes) (, , , )

Everybody is aware that on this date, the Mayan calendar will end. There have been prophesies that this will be the end of day. I know I am scared too. However I would like to share to you the article that I have read.

Prophecies throughout time have named this as the end time, movement to a golden age, gold referencing the alchemy of time and consciousness. To examine the accelerating physical Earth changes and consciousness of humanity, recognizing and healing its issues, is to understand this evolutionary process and what is occurring. There are many factors linked to December 21, 2012 back into light, from which the human biogenetic came. The best barometer for you, is your own intuition, which will allow you to sense great changes. Dreams and meditation will also guide this part of your journey.

On December 21, 2012, for the first time in approximately 26,000 years, the Sun will rise to conjunct the intersection of the Milky Way (eye, heart, center) and the ecliptic plane. The sun aligning with the galactic center, is referred to as the Cosmic Cross. According to the ancient Maya, this date will mark the end of one world as we know it and the beginning of another. It is considered to be an embodiment of the Sacred Tree, The Tree of Life, a Tree remembered as sacred in all the world’s spiritual traditions. Emerging from this tree, or star alignment, comes a serpent (DNA) rope with an enlightened being named Nine (9, Closure) Winds (Wormholes, Spirals, StarGates, SG, Sacred Geometry). Nine Winds is Quetzalcoatl riding upon a blessed substance the Mayans called ‘itz’ (it’s Z).

The Milky Way Galaxy is the inspiration for the symbol of the Ouroboros. Mythology refers to a serpent of light residing in the heavens. The Milky Way is this serpent, and viewed at galactic central point near Sagittarius, this serpent eats its own tail. The Milky Way galaxy keeps a great time cycle that ends in catastrophic change. The sign of the Suntelia Aion is the sun rising out of the mouth of the ouroboros, which will occur on the winter solstice December 21, 2012 at 11:11 UT. Ancient historians, including Plato referred to a cycle of catastrophe at the End of the Age. The AION was symbolized by the Ouroboros.

The Mayan Calendar
The Mayan Calendar was allegedly created by Quetzalcoatl.

    December 21, 2012: The Long Count calendar used by the Maya civilization of pre-Columbian Mesoamerica completes its thirteenth b’ak’tun cycle since the calendar’s mythical starting point (equivalent to 3114 BCE August 11 in the proleptic Gregorian calendar, according to the “GMT-correlation” JDN= 584283). The Long Count b’ak’tun date of this starting point (13.0.0.0.0.0) is repeated, for the first time in a span of approximately 5,125 solar years. The significance of this period-ending to the pre-Columbian Maya themselves is unclear, and there is only a single known but incomplete inscription (Tortuguero Stela 6) which records this date. However, it is conjectured that this may represent in the Maya belief system a transition from the current Creation world into the next. A number of modern synchretisms and “New Age” theories co-opt this period-ending into their own speculations on the meaning of this “ending” of a Maya calendar cycle. The December solstice for 2012 also occurs on this day; to the majority of Mayanist scholars this is seen as no more than a coincidence, and the Maya did not deliberately devise their calendar so that this period would end on a solstice point.

Cherokee Calendar
Prophecy: 2004 and 2012 bring an alignment both on the Cherokee Calendar and in the heavens of the Rattlesnake Constellation. It is the time of the doublehead serpent stick. It is the time of the Red of Orion and Jupiter against White Blue of Pleiades and Venus. It is the time of the Uku’s choosing. It is the time of the Beloved Woman and Mysteries of Time Untime. It is the Time Untime of the Thunderbolt and the spirits of Lightning Mountains. Rattlesnake or serpent represents the human DNA biogenetic experiment.
Terence McKenna
Terence McKenna (November 16, 1946 – April 3, 2000) was a writer, philosopher, and ethnobotanist. He is noted for his many speculations on the use of psychedelic, plant-based hallucinogens, and subjects ranging from shamanism, the development of human consciousness, and the Novelty Theory – Time Wave: Zero Point.

    Novelty Theory predicts the ebb and flow of novelty in the universe as an inherent quality of time. McKenna developed the theory in the mid-1970s after his experiences in the Amazon at La Chorrera led him to closely study the King Wen sequence of the I-Ching. Novelty theory involves ontology, extropy, and eschatology.The theory proposes that the universe is an engine designed for the production and conservation of novelty. Novelty, in this context, can be thought of as newness, or extropy (a term coined by Max More meaning the opposite of entropy). According to McKenna, when novelty is graphed over time, a fractal waveform known as “timewave zero” or simply the “timewave” results. The graph shows at what time periods, but never at what locations, novelty increases or decreases.

    Considered by some to represent a model of history’s most important events, the universal algorithm has also been extrapolated to be a model for future events. McKenna admitted to the expectation of a “singularity of novelty”, and that he and his colleagues projected many hundreds of years into the future to find when this singularity (runaway “newness” or extropy) could occur. The graph of extropy had many enormous fluctuations over the last 25,000 years, but amazingly, it hit an asymptote at exactly December 21, 2012.

    In other words, entropy (or habituation) no longer exists after that date. It is impossible to define that state. The technological singularity concept parallels this, only at a date roughly three decades later. According to leading expert Ray Kurzweil), another concept called cultural singularity (essentially cultural dissolution, or language dissolution), parallels this as well.

    McKenna claimed to have no knowledge of the Mayan calendar, which ends exactly the same day that the Timewave graph does: December 21, 2012.

Venus Transit
The next transit of Venus will occur on June 6, 2012. In Astrology, some believe that a doorway opened during the Venus Transit on June 8, 2004 and highlights in June 2012. This is close to the end time date in my screenplay “2012 The Alchemy of Time” adapted from my book 2012 Sarah and Alexander.
Astrology
The center of the Milky Way Galaxy is 26º 54 minutes Sagittarius. It approaches 27º 0 minutes in the year 2010. In the year 2012 the galactic center will be 27º 1 minute. If your birthday is on or around December 18, you are aligned with the sun pointing to the center of the galaxy. People born on this date include Brad Pitt and Steven Spielberg.

A reason to smile

July 25, 2008 at 12:18 am (Life, Love, Personal) (, , )

Yesterday was indeed fun for and gave lots, I mean a lot of reason to smile. Despite of having a bad week, an angel was sent yesterday to make me smile. And I can’t stop smiling even on my way home when I think of ‘him’ I was smiling even without apparent reason.

Finally, I can have some peace of mind, now I know what is my standing with him. He feels the same, gosh finally… :) Happy, happy me.. See even the picture depicts that I totally forgot even my fear with cats and kutings. Yes, I was smiling like that yesterday, cutey aight?

Happy, happy me. Yesterday, I don’t have time to listen to melodramatic songs which before I enjoy a lot. Being sad for the longest time I remember, yesterday was a different day, a day that makes the world smiling at me. There’s this particular song that I think fits for us.

Another used to be

I used to love someone that I didn’t like we used to want to break up every other night.

Iused to think relationships were a lot of stress.

I used to think that pain was a part of happiness.

Now all that’s changed since you’ve come my way, but i don’t want us to become
another used to be.

These are just few lines that made me smile. But the entire song really made me smile. It is meant for us. :)

Thanks for making me smile… :) And thanks for changing my view about happiness. :) Pain isn’t part of it I know now and I thank you darling. :)

Realize

July 22, 2008 at 6:57 am (Inspirational, Love, Music, Personal) (, , , )

V1: Take time to realize,
That your warmth is
Crashing down on in.
Take time to realize,
That I am on your side
Didn’t I, Didn’t I tell you.

But I can’t spell it out for you,
No it’s never gonna be that simple
No I cant spell it out for you

C: If you just realize what I just realized,
Then we’d be perfect for each other
and will never find another
Just realized what I just realized
we’d never have to wonder if
we missed out on each other now.

V2: Take time to realize
Oh-oh I’m on your side
didn’t I, didn’t I tell you.
Take time to realize
This all can pass you by
Didn’t I tell you

But I can’t spell it out for you,
no it’s never gonna be that simple
no I can’t spell it out for you.

C: If you just realized what I just realized
then we’d be perfect for each other
then we’d never find another
Just realized what I just realized
we’d never have to wonder if
we missed out on each other now.

V3: It’s not always the same
no it’s never the same
if you don’t feel it too.
If you meet me half way
If you would meet me half way.
It could be the same for you.

C: If you just realize what I just realized
then we’d be perfect for each other
then we’d never find another
Just realize what I just realized
we’d never have to wonder
Just realize what I just realized

If you just realize what I just realized

OoOoOOo

missed out on each other now
missed out on each other now

Realize, realize
realize, realize

I wish Ouchies would realize what I realized that he is my world, my everything. That we are made for each other.

Healthy Atmosphere

July 20, 2008 at 11:31 pm (Inspirational, Life, Personal) (, , , )

Jokes and remarks directed at you in bad tastes should be deflected with good humor. This is one way to avoid enmity with anybody. Losing your cool while playing the game will cause you to strung up. You will forfeit a possible win. That will even spoil the pleasure of those watching the game.

There is no way that you can change everyone in this world to your way of thinking. It is not even desirable. If everyone agrees with you, the world will soon run out of ideas.

There are many ways of correcting a person when he is wrong. By criticizing, blaming and railing at him in public, you will be humiliating him, rather than correcting him. One is certain to make more enemies through criticism. If you can show concern for a person with kind words, he will thank you for it someday.

Never use harsh or unpleasant words whenever you express your views on certain issues. Diplomacy, gentleness and politeness do not hurt anybody. In fact, they will open many doors for more effective communication.

Do not feel defensive when your own faults are being pointed out. Your faults are your signposts for learning perfection. Temper is a poor camouflage for shortcomings. When someone loses his temper, he will blurt out too many things which are better left unsaid. Never reveal a former friend’s secret, no matter how angry you are with him now. You will only degrade yourself in the process and others would never accept you as a sincere friend thereafter. Others will think of you could do to them the same thing that you did to hurt a former friend, no one will trust you.

Don’t dream its over

July 18, 2008 at 12:04 am (Inspirational, Life, Music) (, , , , )

There is freedom within
There is freedom without
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
There’s a battle ahead
Many battles are lost
But you’ll never reach the end of the road
While you’re traveling with me

CHORUS:
Hey now, hey now
Don’t dream it’s over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won’t win

Now I’m towing my car
There’s a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion but there’s no proof
In the paper today
Tales of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the TV page

CHORUS

Now I’m walking again
To the beat of a drum
And I’m counting the steps to the door of your heart
Only shadows ahead
Barely clearing the roof
Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief

CHORUS

REPEAT UNTIL FADE:
Hey now, hey now
Don’t dream it’s over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in

The Husband Store

July 17, 2008 at 4:17 am (Humor, Life) (, , , )

A store that sells husbands has just opened where a woman may go to choose a husband from among many men. The store is composed of 6 floors, and the men increase in positive attributes as the shopper ascends the flights.

There is, however, a catch. As you open the door to any floor you may choose a man from that floor, but if you go up a floor, you cannot go back down except to exit the building.

So a woman goes to the shopping center to find a husband.

On the first floor the sign on the door reads: Floor 1 – These men have jobs.

The woman reads the sign and says to herself, “Well, that’s better than my last boyfriend, but I wonder what’s further up?”

So up she goes.

The second floor sign reads: Floor 2 – These men have jobs and love kids.

The woman remarks to herself, “That’s great, but I wonder what’s further up?” And up she goes again.

The third floor sign reads: Floor 3 – These men have jobs, love kids and are extremely good looking.

“Hmm, better” she says. “But I wonder what’s upstairs?”

The fourth floor sign reads: Floor 4 – These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good looking and help with the housework.

“Wow!” exclaims the woman, “very tempting. BUT, there must be more further up!” And again she heads up another flight.

The fifth floor sign reads: Floor 5 – These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good looking, help with the housework and have a strong romantic streak.

“Oh, mercy me! But just think… what must be awaiting me further on?” So up to the sixth floor she goes.

The sixth floor sign reads: Floor 6 – You a re visitor 3,456,789,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at The Husband Store and have a nice day!

Gender talk

July 17, 2008 at 3:37 am (Humor, Life) (, , , )

I got this from my officemate and I find it funny. I hope you’d enjoy reading too.


You may not know that many nonliving things have a gender. For example…

1. Ziploc Bags- They are Male, because they hold everything in, but you can see right through them.
2. Copiers- They are Female, because once turned off, it takes a while to warm them up again. It’s an effective reproductive device if the right buttons are pushed, but can wreak havoc if the wrong buttons are pushed.
3. Tire- Male, because it goes bald and it’s often over-inflated.
4. Hot Air Balloon- Male, because, to get it to go anywhere, you have to light a fire under it, and of course, there’s the hot air part.
5. Sponges- Female, because they’re soft, squeezable and retain water.
6. Web Page- Female, because it’s always getting hit on.
7. Subway- Male, because it uses the same old lines to pick people up.
8. Hourglass- Female, because over time, the weight shifts to the bottom.
9. Hammer- Male, because it hasn’t changed much over the last 5,000 years, but it’s handy to have around.
10. Remote Control- Female… Ha! You thought it’d be male. But consider this-it gives a man pleasure, he’d be lost without it, and while he doesn’t always know the right buttons to push, he keeps trying.

My American Heart

July 16, 2008 at 3:45 am (Life, Love, Personal) (, , , )

Quite surprised today when I received his phone call. He is calling me from California. Let me try to introduce this guy. This is the guy I was with for 6 years. I met him through a common friend named Bao. Bao was so eager to help me go to US that time and we are thinking of ways how. Till he remembered his friend named Casey. “Casey is such a nice guy”, that what’s Bao said. And told him, “Is he willing to help me out?”. He said “Of course he will, and I am pretty sure he will fall for you”. So he gave me his number then I called.

The moment he picked up the phone, I said, he must be good looking and indeed nice. So we talked over the phone for the next 2 hours. We exchange questions about ourselves, things we would like to know about us. And it does include why I would want to move to US and if I am ready to marry a foreigner. Yes at that time, we both know it is just plainly “marry me and once I get my greencard, we’re done”.

But see, for a year that we chat, talk and exchange emails there is something strange feelings that started to grow inside me. A feeling that I can’t explain. So it came to a point that he admitted to me, he is falling for me as well and so am I.

When I hear Estelle`s song American boy, he is the first that came into my mind. The song fits…

Take me on a trip, I’d like to go some day.
Take me to New York, I’d love to see LA.
I really want to come kick it with you.
You’ll be my American Boy.

He said Hey Sister.
It’s really really nice to meet ya.
I just met this 5 foot 7 guy who’s just my type.
I like the way he’s speaking his confidence is peaking.
Don’t like his baggy jeans but Ima like what’s underneath them.
And no I ain’t been to MIA
I heard that Cali never rains and New York’s heart awaits. First let’s see the west end.
I’ll show you to my Bredrin.
I’m liking this American Boy. American Boy

Chorus
Take me on a trip, I’d like to go some day
Take me to New York, I’d love to see LA.
I really want to come kick it with you.
You’ll be my American Boy, American Boy.

Can we get away this weekend.
Take me to Broadway.
Let’s go shopping baby then we’ll go to a Café.
Let’s go on the subway.
Take me to your hood.
I neva been to Brooklyn and I’d like to see what’s good.
Dressed in all your fancy clothes.
Sneaker’s looking Fresh to Death I’m lovin those Shell Toes.
Walkin that walk.
Talk that slick talk.
I’m likin this American Boy. American Boy.

Chorus
Take me on a trip, I’d like to go some day.
Take me to New York, I’d love to see LA.
I really want to come kick it with you.
You’ll be my American Boy

Our relationship is not the typical relationship. We have Long Distance Relationship. And it requires a lot of trust. Eventhough he is in US and I am here in the Philippines, it did not stop us from having a wonderful relationship. He made me feel special and loved. That even he is thousand of miles away, I know he is faithful and loyal to me. He remains true. Whenever girls are around him, he is proud to tell them he is with a Filipina Girl. And that he loves me so much. So girls would usually say, that I am luck, well I am.. He is good looking, sexy, smart,sweet, nice, God fearing.. Almost perfect.

I met his mom over the phone. She is a very nice and fine woman. A woman full of love and compassion. A very ideal future mother in law.

He took care of me in a very special way even he is out there. Now I am confused because he starts communicating with me again.

I am torn between Ouchies and to my American heart.

Till then..

What is marriage?

July 16, 2008 at 2:08 am (Humor, Life) (, , )

1. Marriage is not a word. It’s a sentence (a life sentence).

2. Marriage is love. Love is blind. Therefore marriage is an institution for the blind.

3. Marriage is an institution in which a man loses his Bachelor’s degree and the woman gets her masters.

4. Marriage is a three-ring circus: engagement ring, wedding ring and suffer-ing.

5. Married life is full of excitement and frustration: in the first year of marriage, the man speaks and the woman listens. In the second year, the woman speaks and the man listens. In the third year, they both speak and the NEIGHBOR listens.

6. Getting married is very much like going to a restaurant with friends. You order what you want, and when you see what the other person has, you wish you had ordered that instead.

7. There was this man who muttered a few words in the church and found himself married. A year later he muttered something in his sleep and found himself divorced.

8. A happy marriage is a matter of giving and taking; the husband gives and the wife takes.

9. Son: How much does it cost to get married, Dad? Father: I don’t know son, I’m still paying for it.

10. Son: Is it true Dad? I heard that in ancient China, a man doesn’t know his wife until he marries her.
Father: That happens everywhere, son, EVERYWHERE!

11. Love is one long sweet dream, and marriage is the alarm clock.

12. They say that when a man holds a woman’s hand before marriage, it is love; after marriage it is self-defense.

13. When a newly married man looks happy, we know why. But when a 10-year married man looks happy, we wonder why.

14. There was this lover who said that he would go through hell for her. They got married, and now he is going through HELL.

15. When a man steals your wife, there is no better revenge than to let him keep her.

16. Eighty percent of married men cheat in America, the rest cheat in Europe.

17. After marriage, husband and wife become two sides of a coin. They just can’t face each other, but they still stay together.

18. Marriage is when a man and a woman become one. The trouble starts when they try to decide which one.

19. Before marriage, a man yearns for the woman he loves. After the marriage the “Y” becomes silent.

20. I married Miss right; I just didn’t know her first name was Always.

21. It’s not true that married men live longer than single men. It only seems longer.

22. Losing a wife can be hard. In my case, it was almost impossible.

23. A man was complaining to a friend: I HAD IT ALL, MONEY, A BEAUTIFUL HOUSE, THE LOVE OF A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN, THEN POW! IT WAS ALL GONE. WHAT HAPPENED, asked his friend. He says MY WIFE FOUND OUT.

24. WIFE: Let’s go out and have some fun tonight. HUSBAND: OK, but if you get home before I do, leave the hallway lights on.

25. At a cocktail party, one woman said to another: AREN’T YOU WEARING YOUR RING ON THE WRONG FINGER? The other replied, YES, I, AM. I MARRIED THE WRONG MAN.

26. Man is incomplete until he gets married, then he is finished.

27. It doesn’t matter how often a married man changes his job, he still ends up with the same boss.

28. A man inserted an ad in the paper – WIFE WANTED. The next day he received hundreds of letters and they all said the same thing – YOU CAN HAVE MINE.

29. When a man opens the door of his car for his wife, you can be sure of one thing – either the car is new or the wife is!
Hope you laughed a little and that your day will be
HAPPY!!! Enjoy!!

Parental Control

July 16, 2008 at 12:39 am (Life, Love, Personal) (, , )

I love watching this reality t.v. show. I just don’t understand why some kids really fall in love with the wrong one. In US I assume when they reach 16, they cannot be controlled by their parents. But when I watched this reality show, I told myself “dang, they have this kind of show”. hmm…

In the latest version, parents unhappy with their child’s current partner, interview and select prospective partners who vie for the affections of their child. Afterwards, their child goes on a date with the two selections. They have to decide whether to keep their current relationship, or one of the new prospects.

During each date, the parents and the current partner watch and comment, often antagonistically, as the date unfolds on television. When the dates are finished, the child selects their new partner from amongst the competitors and current partner.

I remember when I was in high school, I was so scared to let my family know that somebody likes me. Being in conservative family, I was so scared, which I don’t know why. So till I was in college, my mentality is like this. The guy should be well liked by my family.

I remember whenever guy sends me something before, I made it sure nobody sees it. Then as I mature, I learned that there is nothing wrong if somebody likes me. Then, that’s the time I asked my suitors visit me at home which I think is more appropriate.

Most of the guy I was involved with, were pretty decent and nice guys. But I must say, there is only one of them who really made a huge difference of who I am now. He made me realize a lot of things, pushed me to my limit to give everything I can to get what I want. To learn how to hold on despite of the pain and not to give up easily no matter what other people will say. Before if I didn’t get something that I like on the first try, I just give up easily. And mostly, this guy taught me how to cry. With my ex boyfriends before, I don’t know how to cry. I just simply don’t like them seeing me cry. For me it is sign of weakness. I am not weak. So I built all these walls and don’t let anyone get that close, close enough to hurt me. But with him, I let all my guards down and the very ‘first’ guy who made me cry.

The Parental control with him, didn’t became a big issue. With his status, I am sure that it should require lots of parental advices and the likes but to my surprise, I didn’t get a single one. Although my mom would always tells me that he likes my ex from US before (that guy and I were together for 6 years that’s why) more than this guy. But see, she didn’t stop me because she knows I am happy with this guy.

Right now, I was able to surpass all those difficult trials, on the verge of losing him but I keep on holding on. First time to hold on to someone, scared of losing him since I learned to love him. 18 months has passed, and yet we are not exclusively into this relationship, ’special friend’ I think would suited us better. But I don’t regret anything of it, I am happy and I love this guy.

I will hold on till I can. The parental control, would always be there, and I am not close to that idea. But I am glad my parents didn’t stop me the way these parents in this reality shows does. My mom just listens (my dad died almost four years ago already) and my mom would always just be there behind me to support me if I am down.

So I think, some children should somehow be glad of those ‘parental control’. Parents would never want something bad to happen to us. Just explain to them how you feel whenever they try to apply this control. I am sure they won’t stop you from being happy but give them a chance to explain themselves as well. :)

Reaching out

July 15, 2008 at 12:39 am (Inspirational, Love, Music) (, , , , )

What must I do to make you understand
You mean everything to me
Don’t have the strength to say
Give this heart of mine a chance
And maybe then you will see…

Refrain:
I’ll do anything, do anything that you tell me
I’ll be there, I’ll be there if you need me.

Chorus:
Reachin’ out to you
Do you feel it too
Lovin’ you is all I wanna do
I’m completely sure
I’ve never felt this way before
When I smile you know that there is something more.

What must I do so I can make you see
The light that shines in my eyes
You brighten up my day
You even help me find my way
I wish you’re always by my side

Refrain:
And I can’t stop, don’t know how to stop thinkin’ of you
And I’ll do anything, do anything to be near you…

Chorus:
Reachin’ out to you
Do you feel it too
Lovin’ you is all I wanna do
I’m completely sure
I’ve never felt this way before
Deep inside you know that there is something more.

Deep inside you know that there is something more.

Inner Changes Bring Outer Changes

July 12, 2008 at 8:03 am (Life, Personal) (, )

The quality of your life depends to a large extent on the quality of your inner emotional and mental life. If you are lazy, worry too much and afraid to try new things, you stick to the same spot. If you are not afraid to change your thinking, your life will soon change accordingly. Your habitual thoughts, and the content of your subconscious mind determine your behavior and the way you act in the world.
When you change the way you feel and think, you ultimately change your inner vision, actions and behavior. This causes your outer life to change accordingly.

Let’s now see a few examples!

If you are the worrying type, you are probably afraid of changes, and prefer to stick to the same kind of life you well know. You see other people who attain success, and though you wish you were successful too, you do nothing about it. In your mind you see yourself living exactly as you are living now, and find it hard to imagine different circumstances. It may never occur to you that you can visualize a different reality.
In this case your way of thinking limits you. You constantly see in your mind’s eye the same daily reality, and consequently your conscious and subconscious minds stay programmed to experience and attract the same kind of reality.

Suppose you come to understand and realize that your outer reality is shaped to a great extent by your inner world. This realization will cause you to aspire to a better life. You will start to envision the kind of life you want to live. If you keep thinking and visualizing a different and better kind of life, soon these thoughts will sink into your subconscious mind and motivate, inspire and energize you to take action.
The new thoughts will cause new expectations, and change the way you view the outer world. The inner changes in you will gradually affect your outer life. Your behavior, and the way you act will change. You will have more energy, ambition and inner strength. You will get over your fear of change, and be ready to take action to change and improve your life, in accordance with the changes inside you.
