I Scream, "Bagets" Part 2!

I was talking to my dad yesterday over the phone.

He was asking me about a certain applicant. He said, "Ilang taon na?"

I said, "27. Kaedad ko."

"Ah. Matanda na."

Aray. >/

I Scream, "Bagets!"

One sign of getting old:

What does "LMAO" mean?

I have been reading the above initials on facebook. And I have no idea what it is. =)

Let's try google? ;D

Buti na lang kilala ko pa si Taylor Swift. Teehee!

Line from a movie.

Someone once said to me, "You like memorable lines, don't you?"

One of my guilty pleasures I think.. I just really like it when movies, songs, or books put the most perfect words and exact descriptions to things and feelings we can hardly describe or talk about... And when I hear those words delivered thru a lyric of a song, or thru a line from a movie, I nod in agreement.

Tonight, I saw, "PS I Love You". That movie where Hilary Swank's Irish husband died from brain tumor and after his death, Hilary's been receiving letters from him..

Anyway, there were lots of beautiful words in that movie. This one below, I think, is my most favorite:

Holly Kennedy: [crying] When daddy left, I was fourteen, and I said... never again, no man. And then I meet Gerry. This wonderful man happens to me and then, and then, and then he died! What was the point? I'm so angry I could kill somebody. I'm alone, and it doesn't matter what job I have or what I do or what I don't do or what friends I have, he's not here. I mean you're alone no matter what.

True. There will be times in our lives when, for no reason at all, we'd dream of having somebody to share our everything with, that when we wake up in the morning, we know he's going to be there... Sometimes, dreams are meant for two people....

And that is a nice thought, isn't it?

But, sometimes, we crave for freedom and independence. We scream for quality time with ourselves. Being alone is being happy too. Being alone shouldnt always be associated with cynicism and sadness. It really depends on how people would prefer it -- to be with someone, or to be with no one but himself.

There's another quote in the movie that reinforced what I just wrote. Hilary Swank's mother in the movie said this:

Patricia: So now, all alone or not, you gotta walk ahead. Thing to remember is if we're all alone, then we're all together in that too.

Hmm.

**get well.... :-)

Affected

The old tree along the highway was cut. The lot where the tree once stood was recently bought...

I just thought new owners should have at least kept the old tree or at least made a little sanctuary / garden at that specific area? The ground where the tree stood wasnt that big after all, wouldnt eat up a lot of space.

Hmmm. Yes. I am affected. I want the island to be developing but I still would want it to be earth friendly.

And I don't like climate change too.

And I hope there are Tree Planting Projects every week?

FIN.

Charades

(this blog entry is inspired by my Unbeatable team one Saturday night. go girls!)

I always believe that in every move we make in this world, there's always a moral lesson. Like the game of charades. I realize this game is meant to be played not just for fun, but for character growth and moral boost. Haha.

I can never ever forget when one of the guys said, "Nadurog namin ang inyong ego!". And well, he's absolutely correct. Nothing is more hurtful to pride than losing a game to a bunch of gloating guys! Like I said, this game, when won, can actually be a true perk up! And losing it, can really be a slap in the face! Youch!

Charades sharpens our senses. All units of the brain working. Right and left sides of the brain in full swing. Perfect work out for our hibernating heads!

This game makes you value time. Imagine in a span of 60 seconds, you'd have to guess the "most out of this world", and "very impossible to guess" movie or song. It's by far, more intense, and more palpitating than beating a deadline at work, or coming to work a few seconds before a very important meeting. Nakakatense diba?

Charades, charades. You bring out the best and especially the worst in people. You're the game of life and the game of pure mockery! =D

Oh well, game's over. FOR THE TIME BEING.
