wishful thinking...

"have you ever wanted something so bad that you can almost taste it?"

what do you call it?? mild obsession?? a severe case of wanting perhaps?? acute longing?? the thing that drives us should i say a bit crazy with just a glance of what we want.. that everytime we see it or in a case of a person--him/her, our heart skips a beat or the entire world stops for a second..

but no matter how bad we wanted it,no matter how hard we try, we just cant have it..that theres always something in the end that spoils it all..that some things are just almost impossible for us to attain.. yeah, i know- you guys might say that nothings impossible..but c'mon sometimes we have to be realistic here.. some things are impossible..i guess you can see the character of a person on how he/she looks at these things..some people just wont give up, that they would do almost anything just to have that thing or that person..but let me ask you: when is enough?? when youve already given up your all?? when you have nothing left?? do you quit then?? or do you continue fighting?? i know some things are worth giving up your all (ie love etc)..but thats just not me..while some, like me, will only try up to a certain limit and if they cant have it..they will say that its not meant for them..you might call it a pessimist, personally i call it a "realist"..some, they just dream about it..or daydream..like "hey that would be nice" and it only takes 2 seconds before they will say "nah, its never gonna happen" or "in your dreams" and carry on with what theyre doing..just like that..wishful thinking as some might say..but i guess, thats how we humans were created..we are always never contented with what we have..always needing more..always wanting more..maybe its just a matter of being contented?? but hey..its free to dream right..so dream on =)


when was the last time you felt like that?? and what do you do?? ...and what do you call that feeling??

*all that craving,longing and wanting definitely has made me hungry..what i wont do for a bacon cheeseburger...=p

Singles top 10...

well, i should write something about valentines day..i dont know why, but something in my mind tells me i should..i wish i could tell you the wonderful things that i have planned for that day, like a romantic date or something..but alas, i dont have any plans..

so i was reading the paper, getting some ideas on how to start this post..shucks even the broadsheets are getting into this thing..pages full of features about the perfect date etc..heck, even friendster has changed its layout for the season..man, maybe im just a bit upset..whiny all of a sudden..

i came across this article..its kinda funny..ive edited it a bit, put my insights in it too..so here it goes:

Are you spending valentines day alone?? sucks, doesnt it? but for some it really is no big deal-or so they pretend. once again the whole world has conspired to make you feel even by highlighting the fact that your gonna be quite lonely, especially this day when most of the people has plans for only just two..

alright, lets say youre one of these people who are absolutely affected when valentines day rolls by. to put it succintly, "do something". here is the top 10 things you can do:

1. take a cold, cold shower
-nothing beats a quiet moment when the ice cold shower is at full blast, masking the tears running down your cheeks. take a moment to reflect on all the sad relationships youve had as you assume the fetal position on the floor while sucking on your thumb.

2. write a letter to the government
-show your outrage at the many value added taxes being levied by the government on various consumer products. let it be known how you "really" feel about the illegal logging activities plaguing the country. address it to the president and dont forget to sign and seal your envelope with S.W.A.K(sealed with a kiss)

3. have chocolates and/or flowers delivered to yourself at the office or at home
-if no one does it for you, you have got to take charge. go to the nearest florist and arrange to send that loot to yourself. once youve written your "own name" as the recipient, finish it off with, "from you secret admirer xoxo"
for added effect, come in 10 minutes after the scheduled delivery so a secretary or co-worker signs for it. st back and enjoy the ego boost.

4. call up a radio dj
- "ikaw bay nalolongkot at walang makaosap" theres nothing like a good song to set the mood. calling a radio dj serves many purposes. one is you can request a song that will get you through the night and second, youre talking to someone who may just be equally pissed at having to work on valentines when he could be getting some instead. so, go forth and dial

5. go online
- a safe haven for anonymous people everywhere, the internet has made it easier to hook up with other singles in the area or across the world. and, oh yeah, you can finally live out those foul and sordid fantasies youve bottled up inside from years of being a prude. be carefel of the webcam though..

6 play video games
-heres a nice chance to catch up with all the video games youve neglected to play.

7. pig out
-lets face it if you cant share the day with someone, it will be all about "you". this is your oppurtunity for some "me" time. get food that will absolutely kill you in the evening. quail eggs, chicharon, burgers, mayonnaise and all the crazy stuff. have a diet coke in had because you wouldnt want to get fat, right??

8. clean your room
- now that you have nothing else to do,heres a chance to clean your room once in awhile.

9. read a book/ watch a movie
-fix yourself a glass of tea and curl up to a good book. you wont even notice time passing you by. or better yet have a movie marathon. if youre lucky, v-day would have come and gone like the fleeting prose of ernest hemmingway, before he blew his brains out. if you stil feel the blues, then go do #10

10. go out with friends/hang out with family
-of course nothing beats having some quality time with the people who loves you..you can call up some "single like you" friends and spending the day. together, you can make a perch atop the highest building and pelt the couples with pebbles on the sidewalk below

__________________________________________

so there, i wish everyone a Happy valentines day =) hope you have a wonderful day spending it with your love ones.. if youll excuse me, i have to go take a cold shower =P

just a thought/random question: what for you would be the perfect date ?? if you dont mind, please answer in detail..

how you doin..

(from joey--FRIENDS)

its friday night, youre out with your tropa..then suddenly you notice a very stunning lady that had just entered the room..your head goes *BOING* and your heart goes *BOOM*.. instantly youre reduced to hapless whimp..it seems like your entire being is being ripped apart..a part of you tells you to go and introduce yourself to her--you might not know she can be the one etc etc, while as always theres the side thats telling you, you cant do it--that shes just too good for you..shes way outta your league..that youll only get rejected bigtime--yung term na "dinadaga"..and just when you have the courage to go and meet her, youre find yourself with a problem: how will i start a conversation?? how will introduce myself?? just how will i talk to her??

since we're in the topic of pickup lines (personally the term really sounds a bit off) i want to ask 2 questions:

1-for the gents--whats your best introductory line?? i mean c'mon im sure you always have one up your sleeve..the one that gets at least a smile or a positive reaction..or at least a 3 out of 10 batting average (which btw is not bad in terms of meeting a stranger, is it?? =)

2-for the ladies--whats the most funniest line that a guy used to start a conversation?? and please-- let us poor guys have an insight on the female psyche..its kinda hard to guess sometimes kasi..whats the best thing that a guy can do or say to meet you w/o getting slammed

the most funniest and the most used lines ive heard:

1) nice hair
2) your dad must be a terrorist coz youre the bomb
3) you must be really tired, coz youve been running on my mind whole day long..
4) do you believe in soulmates?
5) am i in heaven already, coz theres an angel RIGHT in front of me...
