wanna know a secret?

The air is so different now. I don't know how to describe it in precise terms but there is just this feeling within me every time I get a whiff of the air these days. It's as if it's filling your insides with something.

It's like the air is carrying a secret promise, and as the days pass by it can no longer keep it to itself. Thus, it finds a way to whisper it. And once its soft whisper reaches our hearts, we cannot help but respond to the untold promise of something that would lift us up from where we are. We close our eyes for a moment, and inhaling deeply, we smile to ourselves as we feel our insides being filled with this secret. And although we are not quite sure what the secret is all about, we are willing to make room for this unknown puzzle as we believe that this certain piece would somehow fill that void within you, even just for a while.

But the weird part in all of this is come Christmas time, the void actually becomes more distinct. It's as if that emptiness within you managed to grow by itself without you knowing it. And you know why it feels bigger than it actually is? It's the air! It has managed to cover that hole within us by making us feel all warm and fuzzy inside until that perfect time when we have our guards down. And at that point it uncovers that void once again to release its full force upon us. And you already know what happens next...

So, you see, the air is actually deceiving us.=P Don't let it get you!

funny people

People are funny when they try to be nosy.

I heard this rumor from my friend that someone was insisting that I was actually in a relationship with one of my friends. And this person was actually insisting that I was simply keeping the relationship under the radar (showbiz?).

When I heard this rumor I could not stop myself from laughing out loud. I really find it so amusing that someone would think that me and my friend would actually be more than just friends. I wonder what she saw in us to make her think of that...I don't think I ever did anything out of the ordinary that would make anyone think that I'm actually with my friend.

Sure, in some instances, I might have used this friend of mine to get rid of a certain nuisance. A nuisance that I have longed to punch in the face just to shake him off from his delusions! I mean, Boy, makiramdam ka naman! Anyway, that nuisance is another story. A story that I do not intend to waste my precious time on.

Back to my friend. Yes, he's simply just that. A friend. I could never like someone who has more side comments than myself. He's too talkative for my taste. I remember one time in a class, I was sitting beside him and before the class started he was already talking non-stop. When I realized that he would not shut up any time soon, I suddenly stood up and told him, "Sa unahan ako. wala ako marinig dito." He's a good friend. but he's really not the type whom I can stand to be with for long periods of time. I'd be simply be exhausted just trying to keep up with the endless chatter.

But that's not really the funny part. The person who kept on insisting that I am with my friend clearly does not know me very well. I don't think that I could simply keep mum if ever I was actually in a relationship right now. I don't think I would be able to keep myself from shutting up about that kind of thing. I don't think something like that is meant to be kept. Why hide something as special as that, right? But then, maybe that's just the romantic bone in me.

Now, amusement is over. Back to my books, now!

i want my very own nothing box.

We are, by nature, selfish creatures.
I guess it basically stems from our instinct of self-preservation.
Why else is selfless love is so rare?

let's talk about beauty

"Beauty is common.

Sure, it's work to maintain, but so what if you're beautiful? There are so many beautiful people in the world. Look around. Big deal! Beauty is an accident--so you got lucky in the gene pool--but what have YOU made of yourself. That's what I'm interested in.

So for me when I meet someone that is attractive, it does nothing for me. And in fact I often wonder if they've gotten lazy cultivating the other parts of their personality, the ones that don't fade. What I usually like to ask them is: what are three things about you that a man would find attractive, and none of them can be about your looks."-- STYLE & MYSTERY

the world's best pick up artist

He really exists! And pick up artists really exist! I can't believe it. I thought it was all fiction.I thought he only made it look like it was based on a true story. Now, the book just got more interesting. I want to finish it already but nerd duties are standing on my way. sigh.



If he is the world's best pick up artist then it just goes to show that it really all boils down to one's personality. Well, he actually made a deliberate effort so that his personality would allow him to get women, which actually involved a lot of practice and a lot of scripted routines.

Isn't that kind of deceiving?

Well, Dr. Phil doesn't think so. He says it's just like how women had to learn how to attract men using their charms. Like them, men had to figure out the best way to approach women without scaring them off. He says it's just the same. I say, err.. maybe. I don't really care. All I know is I want to finish the book already. But Azucena is still waiting for me. Jusko! =P
