What to do on a rainy Friday night
Why, answer online quizzes, what else? Got this interesting quiz from a friend's blog. Looks dark and menacing. Dank, even. Perfect for a drizzly night like tonight.
Goddamn rain. Actually, I'm just waiting for Jubert to be done with his deliverable. Then we're off to the midnight sale at Glorietta.
Actually, I can leave anytime I please. Goddamn office. I'm obsessed. All corporate zombies are.
Your word is: Brooding. You are a true thinker and
often try to figure out the meaning of life,
why we are all here etc. You may not be so
social, and often think twice before acting but
those thoughts you have in your mind never stop
flowing in. Sometimes you can be so
concentrated you forget about other things that
you have to do. Don't change, this world needs
deep people.
What dark word represents you? (anime pics and 7 outcomes)
brought to you by Quizilla
You need adventures.
Real life has been very boring for you lately and
you can't help but dream away. Nothing is exciting
or fascinating in your life and can't
understand why it all is so dull. You like
having fun, but are probably not a bouncing
person because of that. There is a probability
that you either like to read/watch fantasy or
similar genres, or have a creative side that
lets you release your fantasy world.

Regression Analysis II
It was yesterday when I the epiphany. Despite only a few hours of sleep, I awoke with a start. And with full clarity, I saw it. The sign.
It wasn't meant to be. And I'm cool with that. Finally. Sure, it would be fun to be mighty cool with him again, but I guess we're really better off as just friends. It's just one of those things that you know to be true, you know? Coz deep down, despite the acknowledgement of his finer attributes, despite his being the quasi-epitome of the guy of your dreams thus far, you recognize that something fundamental is amiss. And you know that you do deserve better...
But still, it was sort of fun to be missing someone like that. To have your head in the clouds whenever you thought about the way he used to make you laugh (whether he meant to or not). To be thinking of badminton matches and video marathons and home-made gourmet dinners that will never happen. To be looking for his face among the crowd on the sands of a tropical paradise, even when you know his presence there was unlikely.
All I know is... Passion, even in delusion, is far better than living in static reality.
.........................
The dream was fun while it lasted. But I'm wide awake now.

Regression Analysis
Man, I cannot stand not knowing.
Yes, I know. Chicken shit never win in the rat race of life. That's what I deserve for getting cold feet when things were just about to get hot. Have no idea what I'm talking about? Heck, that makes two of us.
Seriously (and I hate being serious), there are few things in life that I actually regret. Okay, so I regret not having been more of a nerd in college, I regret not being sports-inclined earlier in school, I regret not having taken height enhancers before I hit 20 (okay, so that's way too much info). But that's about it. Of course, that's not to say that I make the best decisions. But in events that require you to think and act, you do what you can and stand by what you've done. Regrets are all about losing out in the past.
Heck, I don't even regret the whole BJ episode (yes, you keep on guessing). What's to regret? I definitely learned a LOT of things from that. If life is about to deal you a roundhouse kick to the noggin, you gotta learn how to dodge it a la Neo in The Matrix, or bear the full brunt of its force and just roll with the blow. In any case, you learn.
The point I'm straying from (again) is, what if you regret the future? Or the non-future, as is in this case. (Sappy waters ahead, but don't say I didn't warn yah.)
Just so you know, the gist of this entry is written under the misguided and unlikely notion that I might be saved by this admission of guilt. I think I made an error of regret when I ran away from possibility. Just coz I didn't know better. Chalk it up to the innocence of naivete, chalk it up to the so-called wisdom of being unduly cautious. Whatever the case, that's no excuse coz everything in life is a gamble anyway. And let me tell yah, sitting in the sidelines for far too long is just gonna get you some major butt burns. And that ain't gonna be a pretty sight, nuh-uh.
And the worst thing, I never told him why I had to disappear. And to think I told him way back when that I was all about total and open communication. Pffft. What a fake.
It's been a few months since. To date, I take regret as my daily dose of reality. I don't even have to think about it, or get lost in the same engulfing waters, to know that it's there.
It's just there.

Funny.. I never would have pegged myself to be so politically inclined
| Your dating personality profile: Liberal - Politics matters to you, and you aren't afraid to share your left-leaning views. You would never be caught voting for a conservative candidate. Stylish - You do not lack for fashion sense. Style matters. You wouldn't want to be seen with someone who doesn't care about his appearance. (Well, it's not really like this, but extra porma should rack up extra brownie points, doncha think?) Athletic - Physical fitness is one of your priorities. You find the time to work athletic pursuits into your schedule. You enjoy being active. | Your date match profile: Adventurous - You are looking for someone who is willing to try new things and experience life to its fullest. You need a companion who encourages you to take risks and do exciting things. Shy - You are put off by people who are open books. You are drawn to someone who is a bit more mysterious. You want to draw him out of his shell and get to know what he is all about. (Mysterious is A-OK. But shy? Don't like no torpedoes.) Athletic - You aren't looking for a couch potato. You seek someone who is active and who keeps his body in top shape. |

My Top 5 for a Tanned and Grand Summah
1) Waterwaterwater!
Pitchers upon pitchers of ICE COLD H2O. Need I say more? For obvious reasons, this is the one thing I cannot do without, especially during summer. No amount of Condura power can beat the sheer satisfaction that quenching deep-down body thirst brings. Fuels your sizzle without the drizzle.
2) Bring on the bling, baby!
Whether they be plastic baubles, ethnic/wooden neckwear, or sparkly capiz trinkets, piling on beach accessories is a surefire way to make you feel like the summer goddess that you are. Corollary: This is the time to indulge in all things pastel and nautical. If you're usually the ball-busting power dresser in corporate-landia, you now have an excuse to dress up a la Charlotte York of SATC (but still kick ass in the boardroom). Maybe instead of piling on the pearls, you can opt for some rockin' capiz charms.
3) Gyming!
Nothing like kicking butt indoors so you can kick butt outdoors, coz that's what summer is all about, baby! Remember to load up on water so you won't exercise yourself into a tizzy. For the more adventurous, this is the best time to embark on that Muay Thai class you've been meaning to get into for the longest time. Of course, there are other less disfiguring options, like that new craze called Zipping. Best taken up down Boracay way.
4) Hit the road, bustah!
You don't have to go to the beach to enjoy the summer. Even just going on a joyride about town will do wonders for your cooped-up-too-long-in-the-office self. So long as you're with a fun bunch, or even with your summer honey, you can never go wrong. You can get lost, but hey, it's summertime. Anything's bound to be fun as long as you don't totally lose your head. Just get yo' ass off that couch, like, ahora mi amiga!
5) Click away!
What's a fantabulous summer if you don't have the mementoes to show for it? Just like any other time of the year, one must lug around a trusty device that can capture instantaneous, precious moments in a flash. Even more so in the summer, coz in theory at least, it's the time you're given license to go nuts and be at your ditziest. And what's more photo-worthy than that? If you don't have a decent snapper at hand (like moi), you can always hang around people who do. Then you can hog the camera and guarantee that your summer adventures will forever be etched not only in memory.
Be seeing yah, peeps!
