Walking with Him

I’m sick and not in good mood to write about anything today. Nonetheless, i will share to you a video from my youtube account which was originally made in SWF (flash). i edited and converted it into a video file. If you could hardly read the text, you may click on the video to view it directly on my youtube. Be inspired. I’ll appreciate your comments.

illicit and clandestine

these pictures arent fresh anymore. they were dissimenated thru chain emails sometime in early 2007.

Something to laugh at today.

Man does not live by bread alone

Material things do not necessarily bring you happiness. That is a fact of life. It is a hard fact to understand sometimes, especially in a society that tries very hard to teach you otherwise.It is very common to get into a mode where you think, “If only I had object X, my life would be perfect and I would be happy.” You REALLY want something: a new plasma TV, a PSP, a new laptop, a new car, a special pair of shoes havaianas, crocs, iphone, whatever. Then you buy it and you LOVE having it for a few days. But over time you get bored or it wears out. You can see this pattern repeated constantly in your own life. For example, your parents and grandparents likely spent thousands and thousands of pesos on toys for you as you were growing up: Dump trucks and Barbie dolls (yes i had barbie dolls haha) and video games, talking robots and remote controlled cars and on and on and on. All of those toys got boring or broken or outgrown eventually. They brought happiness for a moment or a week, but over time they became worthless and your desire turned to a new object. perhaps vacation to boracay, to disneyland, to a foreign land, a week-long stay in a love boat with your super crush harhar. …

A Sunday with Angelo & Rob Schneider

It was yet another gloomy and rainy Sunday. After attending a worship service, i met with a friend whose name i am not inclined to disclose (yet) haha. We had a quickie…  a quickie meal at Chef d’ Angelo which was all her idea haha. I gave my orders at the counter - mine was “Seafood Medley” a delicious spicy scampi sauce over fettuccini and ornamented with tendered shrimp and calamari lightly sautéed. Mmm so scrumptious that i became engrossed eating and forgot about my companion hahaha. Sorry, my bad! But i tell you, it was yummy and while writing this, i still feel the aftertaste. My companion was then craving for Chicken Al Pesto so that’s what she ordered When served, it doesn’t look good. It’s like a plain spaghetti pasta sprinkled with chunks of grasses and broiled chicken meat. I knew upon seeing the appearance of her pasta that she’ll not enjoy it. I think she really did not enjoy her meal as much as she did not enjoy my company.

In a flash, i walked her towards where she works then with a waving hand, i politely said goodbye. (more…)

Breaking up and Starting Over

If you have been going out with someone and you are both unhappy, then it is time to move on. That means you will have to break up and be alone - essentially you go back to square one. Here are some words of encoura-gement to keep in mind:

• You can’t make an omlet unless you break a few eggs. 
• You cannot meet Mr./Mrs. Right without first meeting Mr./Mrs. Wrong.
• Don’t cry over spilt milk.
• If at first you don’t succeed, try try again.

In other words, you have to start over and that’s life.

Advantages of going out ALONE

I recall my earlier self who never dared go to a movie alone or even go to lunch by myself.♣

“Sure, I’d love to go to Disneyland, but I’d never go alone.” But now, i’m a proud LONER!

When you slip into some kind of buddy mode, you start thinking that every activity from enjoying a cheese sandwich to a foreign sunset is only half an experience if there’s no one else around.

In many cases, at least for a lot of guys like me (harhar), I think it’s more the dread of being seen alone than actually being alone.

Table for one? Hahaha! What a shame.

Going to Star City by yourself. Tsk. Tsk. Not really.

For some guys, the feeling is comparable to one going to the playground and then riding a seesaw with nobody on the other end. Or perhaps something like trying to enjoy a rollercoaster ride without someone beside you. Embarrassing.

Irksome people in Starbucks

General Disclaimer: i am not the authorof this whole thing. I gathered some opinions and thoughts from other sbux customers, patrons and bloggers. to my barista friends who may find this offensive, biased, or in any manner, prejudicial, i plead for your kind compassion and indulgence.  

Here are types of people you’ll find inside a Starbucks that are guaranteed to annoy you.

Manager/Barista Who Refuses to Recognize the Words Small, Medium, and Large

I understand, you’re a corporate guy and thus must abide by company policies by calling the different sizes by their Starbucks Christian names of Venti, Grande, Tall, etc…. But if I ask you for a small, don’t act like I’m speaking to you in that Native American langauge we used in World War II to deliver coded messages. You’re familiar with the sizes small, medium and large. (more…)

Just been DUMPED!

Rejected

One of the fundamental problems with relationships and “falling in love” is that you open yourself to the hazards of breaking up and getting dumped. You may have heard the saying, “It is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved before.” That sounds great until you are the one being dumped. Then it’s a whole different story. It really depends on how much you have “invested” in the relationship in terms of time and energy. The thing that hurts so much about being dumped is that you feel like you have been betrayed. You may also feel like you will die. To lose someone you truly love is, at times, nearly unbearable. (more…)

Engagement vs. Marriage

Breaking an engagement is a rather drastic step, especially as you get closer to the wedding. However, it would be better to break the engagement than to get married and have to break the marriage. 

But…. if you’re in dire need of breaking up the marriage legally for unbearable reasons, our law firm can help you annul your marriage by filing a petition for absolute nullity of marriage before our Family Courts.

A LAW STUDENT’S PRAYER

Now I lay me down to study

I pray the Lord I don’t go nutty

And if I fail to learn this junk

I pray the Lord I do not flunk

And if i die, don’t bury me at all

Just lay my bones in the study hall

And pile my books upon my chest

And tell my profs I did my best.

So i lay me down to rest

And I pray I pass tomorrow’s test

And if I die before I awake

That’s one less test I have to take
