Aristocrat



Our movie and food trip last May 30. The movie house was jam packed! Good thing we were able to find good seats. The movie's great, love the realistic ending that it had. A must watch for those who wanna go abroad. I give the movie an 8 rating..

For our food trip, a give it a 4 rating. The place great and clean. However, the service crew are quite intimidating (well, according to mySis). No extra ordinary 'bout the food, but the barbecue chicken is good. If I may recommend, a total revamp on how the crew serves will make the big difference on the totality of the resto.

**“I can make a scene that's not supposed to be sexy, very sexy. It's a power you're born with. It's not a physical thing, it comes from inside. It's all in the eyes.” ~Tara Reid


I tried looking for the meaning of "sexy" in the dictionary and I got these definitions..

***Sexy: (adjective) erotic; generally attractive or interesting; appealing.

Sure enough, when we hear the word sexy, the thing that comes in our mind is something, good. Candy to the eye. Erotic. So I'll ask you a question now, when do you feel this state? The state of sexiness?

Is it when you're wearing your Victoria? Almost bare and the piece of garment putting focal on your curves. It could be showing your six packs in the beach and adding more by the tan you get from your burnt skin. Some may prefer doing an eighty in their bloody red Ferrari while blowing those thugs sounds.

Funny as it may seem, but I feel sexy when I plant flower seeds in plastic cups. Yes, you read it right..planting. I do not know but there's something with starting a new life from almost nothing into something. My sweaty shirt and dirty hands makes me look good and feel young. Special attention is needed to make sure that the seeds will germinate and grow. This is something worthy on my perspective doing.

True enough that sexiness does not come from the exterior. Just like beauty.. feel beautiful and it will transcend outside. If you think your sexy even if your petite or perhaps the big built type...you'll look sexy to the people around you. Why? Because that's how you perceive yourself.

Feel sexy today. See if something will improve in yourself. Remember, its not all about flesh, but your perception about things.

Shout




"Now, I just have to realize on when to have the right timing to keep my mouth shut.."

One of the hardest arguments in a relationship are the one done in silence. Both parties clueless on what the other is thinking. I guess no relationship would last without getting through some fights or misunderstandings. These bumps serves as litmus paper on how the relation is stirring.

I personally is not a vocal type of person. I prefer keeping my thoughts to myself. Though sometimes it sucks to carry all the burden inside, I sometimes feel like loving it. Scary huh?! Yes it is. To the long silence, sometimes getting hurt is the only channel that makes me say to myself, "Hey you feel pain, your alive!".

Oh, boy! How I envy people who can shout. How I wish I was given such extra ordinary larynx. To scream all my thoughts and hear them echo back to me, in my face.

Given the extra ordinary silence, I have proven it useful and destructive at the same time. Now, I just have to realize on when to have the right timing to keep my mouth shut..

Forgive in totality



" But I see forgiving as like giving."

Yesterday I attended the last mass at Holy Rosary in Angeles City. Coming out from work at 6:45 in the evening and anticipating the traffic, I decided to visit the Blessed Sacrament first while waiting for the last mass. Solemnly I prayed. Spending ten to fifteen minutes at that place prepared myself to feel His presence.

During the mass proper on the part where the priest says his sermon, I was deeply struck by the two aspects he tried to inculcate to the church goers. First is peace. Inner peace that is. And second is forgiveness. Inner peace, such a wonderful word. See, when I hear this word I immediately relate it to sleep. I think you'll agree that people with inner peace are the people who have a sound sleep. No bothered conscience to worry every time they try to close their eyes. And same goes when they open it upon waking up.

Forgiveness. This is the aspect I've focused more on the priest sermon. It is easy to say that you have forgiven a person but then again sometimes we tend to put a condition on the forgiveness we give. " I forgive you for your mistake but don't show your face to me again!", a classic example of forgiving with a condition. With the example I have stated a question pop up in my mind...did we really forgive the person with that precondition? I guess not.

Just recently, myButterfly's ex-boyfriend posted some malicious/degrading comment on my recent blog. It is myButterfly who informed me about the lewd post. What is my initial reaction you might ask. Anger? Revenge? I guess I did feel the normal reaction any man would feel. However, upon breathing some air and a few minutes of composing myself, I realized I just have to ignore those comments.

Thank God I was able to hamper myButterflys' anger by continuously conveying to her that we just need to ignore those comments and rather believe in my love to her. Minutes past and everything went under control.

I felt that I need to avenge at some point but deep within me I knew it will not be fruitful at end. The cycle or war will just run in circle if I do the same thing to her ex . I have a principle for this kind of people...Denial is the best punishment! It will be a sweeter revenge for me to see him wait for nothing with regard to my reaction. True enough, I saw no more post from him.*

I have forgiven that man. For in forgiving him for his wrong doings benefited me more. I have inner peace. I can sleep soundly at night. I have no baggage in my heart to carry. It is not an easy task to forgive. To answer this dilemma, I change my perspective in forgiving. I see forgiving as like giving. Better give than receive. And things will be lighter for me to deal.

Hopefully myButterfly will forgive his ex. And that is forgive in totality...

Twenty-seven minutes and seven seconds



"Time cannot be reversed but you can enjoy each tick if you decide now..."

Twenty-seven minutes and seven seconds, what events could possibly occur in a short span of time?

Twenty-seven minutes of non-stop laughter between friends making jokes and seven seconds of deafening silence because everyone runs out of a punch line. Twenty-seven minutes of luxurious gambling and seven seconds losing a million. Twenty-seven minutes of pure love making and seven seconds of rest. Twenty-seven minutes of point explaining and seconds of saying "its over", ruining a relationship. Twenty-seven minutes of emergency operation and seven seconds of farewell. Twenty-seven minutes of pain and seven seconds of joy. Twenty-seven minutes of doing 100 km/hr and seven seconds late at work. Twenty-seven minutes of phone conversation and seven seconds after, you are missing the person already. Twenty-seven minutes of long wait in a line and seven seconds processing your transaction. Twenty-seven minutes of solemn prayer and seven seconds of salvation.


Twenty-seven minutes and seven seconds, a make or break situation over a very short span of time. Point here is not the length of time but the way it was used. Time cannot be reversed but you can enjoy each tick if you decide now...
