Mahirap ng Magsalita

Bakit me mga taong walang pakiramdam?

Di naman sa nagrereklamo ako pero me mga tamang oras sa bawat pagkakataon. Madali akong kausap, di ako mareklamo. Sa katunayan nga hanggat matitiis ko, titiisin ko dahil marunong akong umintindi. Lalo na sa mga tinuturing kong kaibigan. Di tayo pinanganak nun unang panahon pero siguro naman tumingin tayo ng pagkakaiba sa mga taong nasa paligid natin.

Pero sana kahit konting konsiderasyon. May mga taong matutulog at may trabaho pa kinabukasan.....

Gusto ko naman sanang matulog ng mahimbing na walang pangamba.....

He's Just Not That Into You (the no-excuses truth to understanding guys)

by: Greg Behrendt & Liz Tuccillo

YOU ARE ALL DATING THE SAME GUY…..

(1) He’s Just Not That Into You If He’s Not Asking You Out… because if he likes you, he will ask you out
What needs to know…
- An excuse is a polite rejection. Men are not afraid of “ruining the friendship”.
- Don’t get tricked into asking him out. If he likes you, he’ll do the asking.
- If you can find him, then he can find you. If he wants to find you, he will.
- Just because you like to lead doesn't mean he wants to dance. Some traditions are born of nature and last through time for a reason.
- “Hey, let's meet at so-and-so's party/any bar/friend's house” is not a date.
- Even if you live in New York.
- Men don't forget how much they like you. So put down the phone.
- You are good enough to be asked out.

(2) He's Just Not That Into You If He's Not Calling You… men know how to use the phone
What needs to know…
- If he's not calling you, it's because you are not on his mind.
- If he creates expectations for you, and then doesn't follow through on little things, he will do the same for big things. Be aware of this and realize that he's okay with disappointing you.
- Don't be with someone who doesn't do what they say they're going to do.
- If he's choosing not to make a simple effort that would put you at ease and bring harmony to a reccurring fight, then he doesn't respect your feelings and needs.
- “Busy” is another word for “asshole.” “Asshole” is another word for the guy you're dating.
- You deserve a fucking phone call.

(3) He's Just Not That Into You If He's Not Dating You… “hanging out” is not dating
What needs to know…
- Guys tell you how they feel even if you refuse to listen or believe them. “I don't want to be in a serious relationship” truly means “I don't want to be in a serious relationship with you” or “I'm not sure that you're the one.” (Sorry.)
- Better than nothing is not good enough for you!
- If you don't know where the relationship is going, it's okay to pull over and ask.
- Murky? Not good.
- There's a guy out there who will want to tell everyone that he's your boyfriend. Quit goofing around and go find him.

(4) He's Just Not That Into You If He's Not Having Sex with You… when men like you, they want to touch you, always.
What needs to know…
- People tell you who they are all the time. When a man says he can't be monogamous, you should believe him.
- Companionship is wonderful, but companionship with sex is even better. Call a spade a spade or, more fittingly, a friend a friend, and go find yourself a friend that can't keep his hands off you.
- Your lost self-esteem may take longer to find than a new boyfriend, so prioritize accordingly. l If you're tempted to spend countless nights just cuddling with someone, buy a puppy.
- There's someone out there that does want to have sex with you, hot stuff.

(5) He's Just Not That Into You If He's Having Sex with Someone Else… there’s never going to be a good excuse for cheating
What needs to know…
- There is no excuse for cheating. Let me say it again. There is no excuse for cheating. Now you say it. There is no excuse for cheating.
- Your only responsibility in someone else's lapse in judgment is to yourself.
- Cheating is cheating. It doesn't matter whom it was with or how many times it happened.
- Cheating gets easier every time it's done. It's only hard the first time, when one feels the sting of morality and the guilt of betraying someone's trust.
- Cheaters never prosper. (Because they suck.)
- A cheater only cheats himself, because he doesn't get to be with you.

(5) He's Just Not That Into You If He Only Wants to See You When He's Drunk… if he likes you, he’ll want to see you when his judgment isn’t impaired
What needs to know...
- It doesn't count unless he says it when he's sober. An “I Love You” (or any semblance thereof) while under the influence of anything stronger than grape juice won't hold up in court or in life.
- Drinking and drug use are not a path to one's innermost feelings. Otherwise people wouldn't smash empty beer cans against their skulls or stick their fingers in fire to see if they can feel anything
- If he only wants to see you, talk to you, have sex with you, etc., when he's inebriated, it ain't love–it's sport.
- Bad boys are actually bad.
- You deserve to be with someone who doesn't have to get loaded to be around you.

(6) He's Just Not That Into You If He Doesn't Want to Marry You… love cures commitment-phobia
What needs to know…
- “Doesn't want to get married” and “Doesn't want to get married to me” are very different things. Be sure about which category he falls under.
- If you have different views about marriage, what else are you not on the same page about? Time to take inventory.
- If you don't feel like you're rushing, why are you waiting?
- There's a guy out there who wants to marry you.

(7) He's Just Not That Into You If He's Breaking Up with You… “I don’t want to go out out with you” means just that
What needs to know…
- You can't talk your way out of a breakup. It is not up for discussion. A breakup is a definitive action, not a democratic one.
- Breakup sex still means you're broken up.
- Cut him off. Let him miss you.
- He doesn't need to be reminded that you're great.
- He can take care of his cat.
- “Classy” doesn't “break into his answering machine.”
- There's a guy out there who's going to be really happy that you didn't get back together with your crappy ex-boyfriend.

(8) He's Just Not That Into You If He's Disappeared on You… sometimes you have to get closure all by yourself
What needs to know…
- He might be lying in the hospital with amnesia, but more likely he's just not that into you.
- No answer is your answer.
- Don't give him the chance to reject you again.
- Let his mother yell at him. You're too busy.
- There's no mystery–he's gone and he wasn't good enough for you. Our Super-Good Really Helpful Workbook We'd have an exercise if we really thought this guy was worth the time, but he's not. So take the afternoon off and go out and have a good time.

(9) He's Just Not That Into You If He's Married (and Other Insane Variations
of Being Unavailable)… if you’re not able to love freely, it’s not really love
What needs to know…
- He's married.
- Unless he's all yours, he's still hers.
- There are cool, loving single men in the world. Find one of them to go out with.
- If a guy is yelling about his ex-wife or crying over his last girlfriend, try to find someone else to take you to the movies.
- Don't be that girl.
- You are not easily forgotten. Let him find you when he's ready.
- He's married.

(10) He's Just Not That Into You If He's a Selfish Jerk, a Bully, or a Really Big Freak… if you really love someone, you want to do things to make that person happy
What needs to know…
- Life is hard enough as it is without choosing someone difficult to share it with.
- You deserve to be with someone who is nice to you all the time. (You have to be nice to them, too.)
- There's never a reason to shout at someone unless they are in imminent danger.
- Freaks should remain at the circus, not in your apartment.
- You already have one asshole. You don't need another.
- Make a space in your life for the glorious things you deserve.
- Have faith. What other choice is there?

(11) Don't Listen to These Stories
Sure. There are the stories. Guys that get pursued by some girl first and she ends up being the love of his life; the guy that treats this girl that he sometimes sleeps with like shit for a couple of years, but she keeps at him and now he's a devoted husband and father; the guy who doesn't call a girl that he's slept with for a month, and then calls her and they live happily ever after; the woman who is sleeping with the married guy who she ends up marrying and having a blissful long-term marriage with. We don't want you to listen to these stories. These stories don't help you. These stories are the exceptions to the rule. We want you to think of yourself as the rule. Thinking of yourself as the exception is what got you into this mess in the first place. Tell your friends to stop telling you these stories. Whenever you hear one of these stories, a story where some woman was treated badly but it all worked out okay in the end, just put your hands up to your ears and go “la-la-la-la-la!” You are exceptional, but not the exception!!

FILIPINO SIGNS OF WIT:


1. The sign in a flower shop in Diliman called Petal Attraction.

2. Anita Bakery

3. A 24-hour restaurant called Doris Day & Night

4. Barber shop called Felix The Cut;

5. A bakery named Bread Pitt

6. Fast-food place selling 'maruya' (banana fritters) called Maruya Carey.

7. Then, there are Christopher Plumbing

8. A boutique called The Way We Wear

9. A video rental shop called Leon King Video Rental

10. A restaurant in Cainta district of Rizal called Caintacky Fried Chicken

11. A local burger restaurant called Mang Donald's

12. A doughnut shop called MacDonuts

13. A shop selling 'lumpia' (egg roll) in Makati called Wrap and Roll

14. And two butcher shops called Meating Place and Meatropolis

Smart travelers can decipher what may look like baffling signs to unaccustomed foreigners by simply sounding out the 'Taglish' (The Philippine version of English words spelled and pronounced with a heavyFilipino accent such as:

15. At a restaurant menu in Cebu 'We hab sopdrink in can an in batol' [translation: We have soft drinks in can and in bottle].

16. Then, there is a sewing accessories shop called Bids And Pises - [translation: Beads and Pieces --or-- Bits and Pieces]

There are also many signs with either badly chosen or misspelled words but they are usually so entertaining that it would be a mistake to 'correct' them like.......

17. In a restaurant in Baguio City , the 'summer capital' of the Philippines : 'Wanted: Boy Waitress'

18. On a highway in Pampanga: 'We Make Modern Antique Furniture'

19. On the window of a photography shop in Cabanatuan : 'We Shoot You While You Wait'

20. And on the glass front of a cafe in Panay Avenue in Manila : 'Wanted: Waiter, Cashier, Washier.' Some of the notices can even give a wrong impression such as:

21. A shoe store in Pangasinan which has a sign saying: 'We Sell Imported Robber Shoes' (these could be the 'sneakiest' sneakers);

22. A rental property sign in Jaro reads: 'House For Rent, Fully Furnaced' (it must really be hot inside)!

23. Occasionally, one could come across signs that are truly unique - if not altogether odd. City in southern Philippines which said: 'Adults: 1 peso; Child: 50 centavos; Cadavers: fare subject to negotiation.

24. European tourists may also be intrigued to discover two competing shops selling hopia (a Chinese pastry) called Holland Hopia and Poland Hopia - which are owned and operated by two local Chinese entrepreneurs,Mr. Ho and Mr. Po respectively - (believe it or not)!

25. Some folks also 'creatively' redesign English to be more efficient. The creative confusion between language and culture leads to more than just simple unintentional errors in syntax, but in the adoption of new words,' says reader Robert Goodfellow who came across a sign .....HouseFersallarend' (house for sale or rent). Why use five words when two will do?

26. According to Manila businessman, Tonyboy Ongsiako, there is so much wit in the Philippines because 'We are a country where a good sense of humor is needed to survive.' We have a 24-hour comedy show here called the government and a huge reserve of comedians made up mostly of politicians and bad actors.


Now I ask you where else in the world would one want to live?

Forget Him

Forget his name
Forget his face
Forget his kiss,
His warm embrace
Forget the love that you once knew
Remember he has someone new
Forget him when they played your song
Remember when you cried all night long
Forget how close you once were
Remember he has chosen her
Forget how you memorized his walk
Forget the way he used to talk
Forget the things he used to say
Remember he has gone away
Forget his laugh forget his grin
Forget the dimples on his chin
Forget the way he held you tight
Remember he’s with her tonight
Forget the time that he went so fast
Forget the love that moved, its past
Forget he said he’d leave you never
Remember he’s gone forever

I'm Outta Love

Now baby come on
Don't claim that love you never let me feel
I should have known
'Cause you brought nothing real
Come on be a man about it
You won't die
I ain't got no more tears to cry
And I can't take this no more
You know I gotta let it go
And you know

I'm outta love
Set me free
And let me out this misery
Just show me the way to get my life again
'Cause you can't handle me
I said I'm outta love
Can't you see
Baby that you gotta set me free
I'm outta love

Said how many times
Have I tried to turn this love around?
But every time
You just let me down
Come on be a man about it
You'll survive
True that you can work it out all right
Tell me, yesterday
Did you know?
I'd be the one to let you go?
And you know

Let me get over you
The way you've gotten over me too
Seems like my time has come
And now I'm moving on
I'll be stronger

Friday the 13th

Friday the 13th! Never believed in such superstitions or been affected by that date. Not until last Friday the 13th of April 2007. I had an accident, not really a big one. Good thing it’s just a small one. I got hit by a Pajero. Mia and I went for a Friday mass at St. Mary’s when the accident happened. We were slowing down and looking for a parking. It was two-way traffic and I saw a vacant space on my left side. Without looking on my back I just turned my wheel on the left side and then this rushing pajero hit me. I was so shocked and I couldn’t think at that time. And then now… realizing that they had my mind believe it was my fault. Damn them. They are all Indians they are rushing off because they have a Christian service at that time and all their sound instruments are with them and they need it to be delivered. It was their fault: (1) they were rushing off (2) they are overtaking me on a two-way traffic (3) I think on that area where the accident happened it is not allowed to overtake (I’ll check on Friday if the traffic lines there don’t allow overtaking. Hehehehe. So I won’t feel guilty). Drivers here in UAE really drive me nuts. Can’t imagine how they can pass the driving exams with that kind of attitude, and being reckless in streets. Plus the fact, that those I encounter are Indians. No need to say anything about them, for sure most of the Filipino here in UAE knows what I’m talking about. Anyway, my lesson learned is that don’t be shocked when you’ll have an accident and be firm that you’re not wrong. But be sure you’re right. Hehehehe. And as much as possible keep away from those asshole drivers and there’s a lot here… Friday the 13th… for me it’s not cursed it’s just that I’m still lucky on that day coz’ nobody get hurt and I’m blessed coz……. :D
