"Sometimes I lie awake at night, and I ask, 'Where have I gone wrong?' Then a voice says to me, 'This is going to take more than one night.'" -Charles M. Schulz, Charlie Brown in "Peanuts"

fine. I'll lay off my loser Friendster messages and post something serious...and it's all because of something Jon the (angel) said over yosi and coffee jelly in Starbucks Rockwell last night before we watched Spidey2 (2nd time for me)...I dunno how it got started basta it started nalang w him saying that my jerx (translation: jerk of an ex) DID NOT INTEND TO HURT ME.......that got me RILED UP!!! My apologies to Jon for raising my voice at that time but I just totally disagree with what you said. If 2 people are in a relationship and one of them suddenly finds or meets someone that they "love" or like (whatever!)more than the person what should they do?

For me, rein that emotion. Why? Because you do not have the right to feel that emotion in the first place. You should be "busy" loving that person you're with. If situations were reversed would you want your significant other feeling in-love or in-like with another person other than you? I bet you don't. If you are having relationship trouble, then, for God's sake, try to resolve it. Relationship trouble should never be the reason why you feel in-like with another person.

aahhh i had wanted to expound on this...but I feel quesy...hafta to go to the banyo muna..ciao!

...What, what kind of fool
Tears it apart leaving me pained and sorrowed
Losing the love wondering why
Wondering why)
Where will I be tomorrow
Losing you now wondering why
Where will I be tomorrow....

Alone
Loneliness dominates you. You can hide it well, but its there, and your friends can see it. You constantly feel alone, and need to do things
to fill your time. Your afraid to tell people this, but sooner or later it gets
out in a bad way, and you think you screwed up everything. And when you are in love is when you are sad the most. (Please Vote)

What Emotion Dominates you?
brought to you by Quizilla

****

THE PREMISE of this article lies on the principle that sometimes, loving a person doesn't mean it has to be romantic and loving a person for the rest of your life doesn't mean you have to end up marrying them. Can a man and a woman just be friends? I'd say yes and they should be.

Hindi dahil kinaibigan ka, liligawan ka na. Not every guy who befriends you has an ulterior motive. Get over yourself. Don't flatter yourself. There is a reason why he befriended you, but don't automatically assume that it's because he wants to be your so-called boyfriend. If this will be the principle you'll follow every time someone asks you to be his friend, you're gonna miss a great deal from the friendship.

Hindi dahil mabait sa iyo, nililigawan ka na. There are people who are naturally sweet and kind. There are people who are innately good and no matter how wicked you seem, they just find it so easy to be kind to you. It doesn't mean he is courting you. Don't put yourself through unnecessary stress trying to figure out if he's courting you or not.
Because I think if he is, you won't have to guess, you'll know and you'll be very certain about it.

Hindi dahil he talks to you a lot, he loves you na. You don't befriend a person if you absolutely abhor him, right? Chances are you make sense when he talks to you, or you're probably very patient listening to him. The two of you probably connect on some level but why does it always have to be assumed to be romantic? Being two intelligent, mature human beings, you need to accept that it's nice to share a cup of coffee over a stimulating conversation, and that you don't have to automatically put romantic connotation to it. Relieve yourself of the pressure. It's just coffee and a shared interest.

Hindi dahil cute ang friend mo, crush/love mo na siya. This is the most amusing thing that hit me lately. People always assume that because your friend is cute or should I say, hot (because cute is a word you describe your high school crush while hot is a word you use to describe a hunk), "lakas amats mo na for repapips!" Let me just say this, at least from my own personal experience, I'm just nearsighted, I haven't gone blind. I
can still appreciate God's creation! However, there will always be weird things, crazy things, stupid things that will keep you, believe me, from having a crush on him. First of all, you'd know his history with women, enough to judge what's good for you. Second, don't you just hate it when a guy who's absolutely always put together, who looks intelligent enough pronounces the word country as "kawntri" and the word mango as
"meynggo." Call me crazy for judging a person just because he can't pronounce these words right. I admit, I'm crazy.

Hindi dahil you hang out with each other most of the time, you'd end up being boyfriend-girlfriend. Self-explanatory... There are a thousand, no million different reasons why things don't always turn out that way. There is no one proven formula. For all we know, the reason why he likes hanging out with you is because he likes getting kikay tips from you. He probably plans on being kikay himself and he needs a mentor.

A dinner with a guy friend does not necessarily mean equate to a date. Especially if you're paying for your share no. Hello? Three things to consider: the place, the topic and how the two of you actually planned to meet. First, how it was planned. If it were a date expect that he would ask you out at least three days before the actual date to give you some lead time, to give you the notion that you are not just a filler on his schedule. Second, the place. If it were a real date, the both of you would want real food and a place where you could really talk things through. Don't go out with a guy to a movie on Friday night if you're really serious about him. Going to a movie is more like treating him like a "filler" just because you had nothing to do on a Friday night so
you might as well go out. Topic. Ha! You wouldn't be talking about chikang artista, chikang opisina or argue if the one girl's boobs are real or not. You would be probably talking about sensible, quite personal stuff.

I therefore conclude that platonic relationships are never complicated; people just have tendencies to complicate them.

...in continuation of saturday's nakakapagod na gimik, during our tambay in Breton, someone broached the idea of staying in Discovery...hala! eto nanaman kme.."ish-pur" of the moment!!! To cut the story, we went to megamall to buy things that we needed and checked in na sa hotel...haaayy sarap...si meian natulog..si emer and kaje uminom..ako nagkwento...Marc went to the hotel to lend me his shirt and charger. he stayed until 3am kahit we weren't really doing anything...hehehe...after he left, we were still texting..he didn't want to go home pa pala and that he was just driving around sa fort..didn't know na what happened to him since I fell asleep na...I went to the office earing Marc's big red CCP shirt...as soon as some of the reps saw me they asked agad: "Sino ang lalaking kasama mo natulog kagabi." hahaha it just dawned on me na that only one conclusion can be surmised if one goes to work wearing a man's shirt and looking as if di pa sya natutulog..hay friends...WISH KO LANG NO! hahahaha...


Drunken Marc (?)


Meian and I


Crepe Kaje


Nice Beng, Bitchy Emer and Pathetic Meian ;P


The only pic of us all together

Monday afternoon, Carroll made me sundo sa office. He was at the 9th floor of our building which is kinda like the food court floor and as we went out to smoke, the door was being opened by A...hahahaha...as usual, parang wala nanaman kmeng nakita..but I hope he saw me and Carroll as we went out and I hope he saw us kiss din... :P anyway, we just had dinner and coffee and went to our common ever chismosa dentist who kept on asking if we were back together...hahahaha..unfortunately, I started feeling sick before the night ended thus I wasn't able to go to the wake that I was s'posed to go to...

I'll post some of the pics that I took as soon as I am able to upload them.

Jon, this is for you..

8 Ways to Get Rid of A Crush

1. Act like you are madly in love with him/or her
2. Pretend you have stalked them the last 2 weeks
3. Act sad over stupid things( example your pet had a fur ball or you ate cheese) and say you need a shoulder to cry on
4. ask for a piggy back ride to all your classes
5. Ask him/her out at least 10 times a day even if yes is the answer
6. Non stop hug them and love on them
7. Flirt with someone of your own gender.
8. Pretend to be obsessed with odd types of things.

Your horoscope for Saturday, July 3:

Your well-organized schedule will be completely disrupted, thanks to someone you haven't seen in a long, long time. Cancel some appointments, and take a long lunch.

and so I did...

While waiting for my wonderful wonderful friends Meian, Angela (Beng), Emer and Kaje in Cafe Breton in Podium, I once again had the opportunity to read...it was a windy morning..with yosi, a good book and coke..ahh my life was good for THAT moment...until Summerwells arrived hahahahaha labs you meme :)

Before having lunch, hungry beng and I decided to eat dessert muna before heading to Thai in a Box for lunch. baliktad no? Then back to cafe Breton for another round of dessert (mango banana..sarap!) and of course, yosi. Hay as usual, we had all kinds of kwento...to boylets-manlets-kissing buddy-recycled-madilim na veranda-to aawww she has a yaya-yaya can you brush my teeth-to missing in action friends-to pustahan si meian ang mauuna at may laman.....aaahhh again the good times...very good times indeed
