victoria's scam
Yesterday, i was in the mall with my sister. I was checking out stuff in victoria secret while waiting for my sister to pay the things she purchased. Suddenly some lady, with victoria secret forms in her hands, came up to me and asked me if i already have a victoria secret card. I said "no, i'll probably just get it some other time." She insisted that i sign up because according to her, it wasn't gona take long anyway. So fine, I agreed. She took a pen and immediately asked for my social security number, my debit card number, and my credit card number. Wtf? The stupid lady didn't even ask my for my name which is the first question on the form. So ofcourse the irritated and suspicious me responded with a question, "Excuse me, but do you work here?" She said yes, so I asked for an ID. She couldn't show me a damn ID telling me they have none. I looked around and saw sales associates with their uniforms and ids around their necks. That friggin lady wasn't even wearing a uniform! Lucky her, i didn't report her to authorities. I told her i don't have credit card nor debit card so she could leave me alone. Tsk tsk scammers these days. Beware you guys.

Thanks, but I'd rather be called Filipino.
Are Filipinos Asians or Pacific Islanders? Why make a fuss?
"Inhabitants of the Chinese, Taiwanese, Japanese, Filipino, and Indonesian islands, although technically bordering the Pacific Ocean, do not fall under the definition of "Pacific Islanders" because such islands are not located in any of the three regions of Oceania (Polynesia, Micronesia and Melanesia), and are therefore classified as "Asians" on the U.S. Census. Despite this, a growing number of Filipino-Americans have denied the classification of being "Asian", instead claiming to be "Pacific Islanders", which has provoked dismay among some Pacific Islanders who actually belong to the Oceanic cultures comprising the commonly accepted definition of the term, and has also prompted allegations of cultural denial from other Filipinos, the worldwide majority of whom identify themselves as being Asian (as the Filipino government has stated since its foundation that the Philippines is a part of Asia)." -Wikipedia
So please stop insisting that we are Pacific Islanders. It's really embarrassing. It's not cool, it's shameful. This really shouldn't be a big deal. We don't call Americans Irish or English, we call them Americans (unless they are recent immigrants). So why can't we just call ourselves Filipinos? No more argument whether we're Asians or Pacific Islanders. Filipinos are fiIipinos. I suggest we all just be proud of it.
Peace.

Bakit hindi pa sya? Kasi nga ganito yan..
Naisip ko lang ang mga karelasyon pala ay parang milk teeth. Sa simulang simula, buo ang ngipin mo, akala mo buo ka na rin. Hanggang sa isa isa na lang mabungi at mawasak ang mga ito. Isang milk tooth na nabungi ay katumbas ng isang relationship na nawala. Pag bata ka pa, masakit talaga. Nasira ang pagkainosente mo at nagkulang ang sarili mo nang unang mawala ang milk tooth mo. Pero sa huli naintidihan mo na kung bakit kailangang mabungi ang mga milk teeth. Kung bakit kailangang dumugo. At kung bakit kailangang may kasama pang sakit. Kailangang mawala ang mga milk teeth para tumubo ang mas matatag na mga ngipin. Para mabuo yung mas matibay, mas malakas, at mas maganda.
In a nutshell: Kailangan nating mawasak para mabuo tayo.
So it's okay to broken. it's okay to get hurt. It's okay to bleed. Because in the end all those pain will lead to fulfillment. We will only be complete once we know completely how it feels to be incomplete. --> but this statement is open to modifications. Why? Cos i really don't know anything. I still have a long long way to go. Hindi pa bungi langat ng milk teeth ko :p

quality not quantity
Found a couple of interesting unpublished entries. I shall publish it soon.
Yesterday's sermon in the church is also pretty interesting: Don't spend too much time with your friends. It's better to spend less but quality time with them than lotsa times doing superficial activities.
That hit me. I don't even remember the last time i sat down with someone and had a really good, smooth and genuine conversation. It's been a really long time! Quality time is one heck of a big eluding thing. A hard one to fit in to our busy lives in this crazy technological world filled with thousands of activities to do. While it's fun to explore and try out different activities, i can't help missing the relaxing times when i can just sit down with a good friend and have a real talk. A wonderful one about feelings, views, dreams, and life. Unfortunately those quality times aren't the days you can plan. Good talks are spontaneously made. Maybe that's why you only get it in so rare occassions.
Another interesting thing. An interesting game for everyone:
Can you escape the Crimson room?
Check it out. You won't regret it, I promise.Labels: Life

it's all the media's fault !
ookaayy so i gained six awful pounds. i love chocolates. i love ice cream. no i'm not depressed. i just love to eat. i can't help the craving. i'm a person who indulge in food. does that make me less of a frigging person??!
no i don't think so.
"even if you have a pretty face, but if your body is like that, wala ren." - my mom
i'm really really gona try to lose all those pounds i gained for the past few weeks or months. but i'm not doing this for anybody. i'm not doing it for the pressure from everybody. screw that. i'm doing it for myself. solely for my own gratification. because i'm not content seeing my face all swollen and bloated now. because i still want to wear the kind of clothes i used to wear.
but you know what?
i may be six pounds heavier than before but i'm still beautiful and fabulous.
call it conceit. or consider it as confidence.
it's all the media's fault man. i shouldn't be bothered by this. you shouldn't be bothered when you gained a few pounds. but with everyone around saying that you don't look good enough with a certain weight, how the hell are you gonna be at peace and at ease? ideally you just shrugg it off, but realistically you can't help looking at yourself the way other people look at you. your looking-glass self. the frigging media still gets you.
whoever set the ideal that thin is beautiful is a bitch. why do people have to live with that standard? why can't people make their own standards of beauty? what if i started just yelling in the streets promoting the slogan that fat is beautiful, would one person change his/her views? hahaha. people are just gona think i'm crazy. but what if decades from now, media starts flipping the standards of a beautiful body. thin will be off. fat will be pretty.
impossible? but just WHAT IF?

friday night bum
there's prolly nothing more boring in the summer than staying home on a friday night. ekk. it's saaaaaadddd.
i would've been celebrating right now if i had gone to my two job interviews this afternoon and got the jobs. but since nobody would give me a ride [thanks a bunch to my uberly supportive family], i had to sadly let the opportunity pass me by. *sniffs*
but just like the cliche line goes: look at the bright side! i may not have the money to go mad shopping, but i have enough time and dough to spend quality time with friends and family right before i hit college. isn't that great? haha. fine. i'll take it.
i'm really just bored right now. i hate saying i'm bored. i hate it when people say they're bored. but i can't be guilty enough. i wannaaa gooo ooooouuutt so badly! but i can't.
i'm so random today. blah. i NEED to type some quality entries. oh well. there's always a next time.
`beaching tomorrow in Southampton!Labels: Rant
