Losing Weight

Just remembered that both Wafa and I are gaining weight … though hers is the scariest … heheheh she’s getting rounder by the minute and its freaking obvious. Since we were not able to go to school as originally planned to finish my enrollment. We stayed stuck inside Choco Fac for dunno how long then went to Body Tone (a gym) to check on their rates and perks and what nots. While we were there what caught my eye .. dunno if it did Wafa’s was the guy on the treadmill. Heheheh he was not cute or anything but he looked silly on the machine. He was huge, a reminds me of one of those nameless wrestlers, the machine looked so small with him on top of it. Just couldn’t believe he’ll lose weight “walking” on the treadmills. Would have been better if he had the machine accelerated to a faster pace.

What he was doing as so “girly” … Am so bad backbiting someone I dont even know. Heheheh but one of these days Wafa, bokie and I will be doing what he’s doing in the vain hope of losing all the fats we’re cursed to gain.

Can’t Wait For You To Come Home

In the neighborhood where my friend Josh grew up he said drugs, weeds and whatever you call it is rampant … even before he started high school he already smoked by the time he finished high school he was what people call a drug addict. From syrups, marijuanas and cocaine … you name it he’s tried it … the sad thing about it is he knew what’s wrong with him but he can’t seem to stop. No, in his own words, he doesn’t have the strength to stop … he cannot deny the strong craving … so day in day out he did everything he can … stealing … robbery … everything just so he can buy whatever he needs to buy to satisfy his craving. He has grown thin, was never able to enroll for college, sunken eyes and cheeks. No longer the cute guy next door, but all that changed after 4 years of misery … at the age of 23 he was admitted for addiction treatment somewhere in Malibu. The location, our support, he’s will to overcome it … made the treatment smooth sailing.

Now we have a totally reformed Josh, healthier than he was 4 years ago, happier than he ever was. He’s gone back to painting and arts … and to writing too, the staff at the local rehabilitation center has been very understanding and kind … making the place an easy environment for him. Can’t wait to see him when he’s treatment’s done … after all the pain he has gone through its high time for him to be with us … the people who cared and loved him the most.

Can’t wait for you to come home bro …

Christmas

Christmas is just around the corner, can feel the spirit all around me … what with the lil kids at home reminding me of their presents and my friends asking for christmas decorating tips either for their own homes, their classrooms and their offices. I was like what the … am not an interior decorator!!! But that didn’t stop them, so here I am scouring the net for resources to help them out with their dilemmas. Came across a site that not only offers tips of decorating for novices like me but also has decors available for sale either that’d be for your living room, your kitchen, bedroom, or for your office.

Was online hopping ..

We’ve carried, arranged, dismantled and replaced just to put everything into place. However there are certain issues that we would need to address, especially when it comes to durability and stability.Sometimes it would take a lot of hours or even days of finding the right stands and mounts for your housing requirements. I had a problem particularly with a plasma mount as well as for LCD monitors. You also need to be very careful in picking out the proper support for your appliances as you don’t want to damage your precious investments.

If you want to place things in order, you better go and visit standsandmounts.com. They offer an immense number of products that go well with your home’s interior design so you won’t have to bother looking for that perfect match for your setting. It may seem great for those who are living alone, but I tell you, it get’s better once you are able to set up your own house! But don’t get me wrong, their products can also cover other aspects like office and other establishments. You can save more since this is less cost of those in stores.

When I visited their site, they have this cool offer which is a $10 off for a price-match guarantee! Definitely this isn’t the only promotions that they’re going to offer. Better visit and find what you need which is already what you’ll want for your shelter needs!

Underneath the stars

By far the sweetest symphony for me.
To Make You Feel My Love - Josh Kelly
When the rain is blowing in your face 
And the whole world is on your case 
I could offer you a warm embrace 
To make you feel my love 
 
When the evening shadows and the stars appear 
And there's no one there to dry your tears 
I could hold you for a million years 
To make you feel my love 
 
Oh, I know you haven't made your mind up yet 
But I will never do you wrong 
I knew right from the moment that we met 
No doubt in my mind we'd belong 
 
I'd go hungry, I'd go black and blue 
I'd go crawling down the avenue 
No, there's nothing that I wouldn't do 
To make you feel my love 
 
hmmm..... 
 
Oh, the storms raging on the rolling sea 
And on the highway of regret 
The winds of change are blowing wild and free 
You ain't seen nothing like me yet 
 
I could make you happy 
Make your dreams come true 
No, there's nothing that I wouldn't do 
I'll go to the ends of the earth for you 
 
To make you feel my love [4x]

- Another wishful thinking, I know he couldn’t carry a tune, he might not even know this song even but it would be close to perfect if he’d sing this out for me … while watching the stars –

Girl Meets Boy

Girl meets Boy. Boy asks Girl out. Girl accepts. Boy asks Girl out again. Girl accepts again. Girl asks Boy out. Boy accepts. So, they start going out regularly. And everybody is happy. This goes on for a very long time. But Boy is mum. He keeps his cards close to his chest. And Girl imagines boy is waiting for the right moment.

In the meantime, Girl starts building her hopes. And everyday, her heart beats a little bit faster in anticipation of the future. One day, unable to endure the unknown, she gathers the courage to ask Boy about the future. Boy is stunned. Boy declares he feels only friendship for her. Girl is crushed. What were all those months and years about?

Indeed, why do men and women go out with each other for prolonged periods of time with neither direction nor commitment? Well, although or two may be waiting for the right moment, the majority are simply not ready for direction of commitment so they cruise along in a safe, enjoyable and commitment-free relationship until the bubble bursts.

Almost always, it is the woman who gets hurt because it is usually the women who make the most emotional investment in any relationship. And while men can go out with women and enjoy their company for prolonged period of time with little emotional attachment, women are not as emotionally detached and indifferent.

I think that men and women could avoid so much pain in their lives if they treat each other with greater decency. Most of the time, we know when one is falling in love with the other and whether or not these feelings can be reciprocated. I have always believed that it is no sin to spend one’s time with someone who is also enjoying our company. But it is a great sin to continue to spend time with someone we know fully well is falling in love with us or is already in love with us when we know we can never see this person in the same light.

We may cherish this person’s company. But we cannot continue to spend time with this person. We cannot build hopes of someone we know we can never fall for and or grow to love in the same manner. Decency dictates that we must sever the friendship to save the other, greater pain in the future.

Why do men and women go out with each other for prolonged periods of time without direction and commitment? Because it is convenient. And it’s like having your cake and eating it too. It provides intimacy without commitment. Each can walk out anytime with little fuss and guilt. Because when no words are said and no feelings are declared, the relationship is not deemed binding although more descent human beings would beg to disagree.

I think that these kinds of relationship can serve their own purpose at a particular point in time but only when both parties are fully aware of where they stand. After all, when there are no expectations of each other, there is a little cause of pain. But we don’t live in a perfect world where emotions can be programmed. Even spinsters can fall in love on mad, moonlit nights.

 - reading this reminded me a forwarded text message from a friend which goes:

you can never teach a guy to love the way you want to be loved

you have to wait for him to do it in his own way in his own time

that’s the saddest part of being a girl …

 

but you can never teach a girl to love the guy back the way she did before

if she already grew tired and fed up understanding and waiting

to be appreciated and loved the way she deserves to be loved …

that’s the saddest part of being an insensitive man.

I asked her can you possibly forward that to him too? So that hopefully he’ll realize? Hahay … hate this  …
