How Did You Spend Your Valentines Day?

How did you celebrate your Valentines Day?
I'm sure most of you spent the day with your special someone, your friends and your family may be. I planned to spend the day with my girlfriend only. But the plan was forgotten for we've celebrated it with our friends. I wish I have some photos to post but my friend who has it hasn't shared it yet to me. I'm expecting that if we'll celebrate it with our friends, my day will be ruined. But what happened was the opposite. It was one of the happiest valentines I have ever experienced. We went to the mall and watch an acoustic competition where my girl's sister is one of the competitors. We had a dinner then we went to CALTEX (a gas station/bar) to end the day with beers (hehehe). It was one of the few days that I felt happiness. I went home 1:00 in the morning bringing the memories of the day.

"Love of Siam"

Have you ever experienced being moved by a movie that you've expected will never moved you?

Have you ever watched "Sassy Girl", "Windstruck", and "The Classic". These are the few movies that really made me feel that love is really something. Aside from Filipino and Hollywood movies, I'm fond of watching Korean movies. Why? Because it's so emotional, very true and really moving. Movies that are you can never forget as long as you live and you'll never tired of watching it all over again.
My very close friend introduced a movie that is a "never-heard" to me. The title is "Love of Siam" and from the title alone you one can say that it's a Thai movie. I've never watch any Thai movie except "Ong-Bak" and the original version of "Shutter". I got curious about it so I ended up watching the movie along with my friends. I tell you, the story is perfect. It really talks about reality. The background music is very match to the scene. Even if the movie is 150 minutes long, no boring moment, I tell you. You can pick up a lot of lessons and heart-melting lines from the movie. You gotta watch it for I'm sure you'll love it. A salute to the director and the story-maker of the movie. And to the actors as well for they fairly acted the roles. "Love of Siam" is now at the top of my "Most favorite movies" I've ever watched so far.

Suicide Attempts

Why am I feeling this way?
Let me ask you, is it normal to think about ending yourself, committing suicide? Maybe you'll say, no, it's not. Loneliness kills me. I can't handle problems. I have a lot of anxieties. I can always remember what my Psychology teacher said, that there is really something wrong with me. Well, of course I believe I'm not insane. It's just that I always think of ending my life whenever I'm alone and my mind is loaded with problems, lots of problems.
But I am doing my best not to think about it. I always mingle with my friends even if I don't feel it. It's just that I can't help it. I really don't know how long can handle this thoughts and not do acts that will devastate me. I'm still hopeful that as I get more mature, all this thoughts will be buried into the deepest pocket in my memory and whenever I'll remember it, I'll just laugh about it.

I'm Alone

I woke lousy this day. I don't even feel like going to school. I can't explain it but I felt like I haven't eaten for a whole week for I really don't have energy to do my daily routine. But you know, even if I felt that way, I still went to school or else I'll end up listening to my mom nagging. In school, I felt very alone even if my classmates are around me. I don't know if this is a sign of insanity, which I hope is not. Or it is just simply a part of lousy day. But what is the best thing is I survived the day. I wasn't complaining about my day for I've learned a lesson still. And the lesson is, it's all about mind that matters. My friends told me that it was all my feeling. I am not really alone. I have friends, lots of them.

A Bite of Astronomy

Who loves stars? If you do, then this is for you. I'm sure everybody is astonished when we look up in a fair night sky with stars glowing like diamonds of high value. It is said that tonight will be the night for astronomy enthusiasts. A Penumbral Eclipse will occur this night and I can't wait for it. Anyway, do you what is this penumbral eclipse? As far as my research is concern, it occurs when the moon passes through Earth's penumbral shadow and these events are of only academic interest because they are subtle and hard to observe. According to my reading this tonight's occurrence is hard to see with our naked eye. Especially the weather condition isn't that fair. I really hope that I'll see it this night though it sounds impossible for it's kinda raining outside. This is my contribution in tonight's history.

Looking for Affordable Eyeglasses

I am a 4rth Year Bachelor of Science in Information Technology student. So as expected, I spend a lot of hours facing my computer and reading relative books. But I wasn't thinking that it will have an effect to my health, most especially to my eyes. I wasn't responsible enough to be aware about this effects and how to prevent it to occur. So now, my friends told me that I should wear eyeglasses. They said that it is one of the best eye-problem solutions to have.

The problem is, I don't wanna wear eyeglasses. Why? For I believe that it will make me look older. But that was before. Now I discovered that there are eye wears that are fashionable and very trendy, that if you wear, you'll even look smarter or "fashionista". Have you guys ever heard about Zenni Optical? In an article in New York Times that tackles about how to have eyeglasses at a very reasonable price, Zenni Optical was cited. Why? Because according to the article, they offer cheap but trendy eyeglasses. They are one of the best opticals in the globe to be considered when you're looking for affordable eye wears.

Now, blurry eyes are a problem no more to me. Eyeglasses are really a big help and I thank my friends for the advice they gave. Protect your sight for it is the window to our soul. Never devastate it.

What is a Polyglot?

What is a polyglot?
I am so astonish with what these people can do. In my research in the net, I've found out what a polyglot is. As far as my research is concern, a polyglot is somebody who is capable of speaking or writing a lot of languages. In short, linguists. I saw a TV special here in the Philippines that features these people. I am so amazed with this people and how they developed their skills. Though for others, it is a question of nationalism. But being nationalistic or patriotic, it doesn't mean that you are not allowed to study or learn any other languages. Specially, in the midst of competition in job hunting, where employers hire those who are not just eloquent in English but of other language, we really need to be skilled enough. Maybe you'll ask how they acquired this amazing skill. Some got it thru community immersion, which means they've live in that particular place where they've got the language. While others really went thru trainings. I swear to myself that I'll really take seriously my interest in Japanese Language. Even if its just self-learning, but at least I'm trying my very best to achieve this goal that could possible bring fortune to me.

Prepare for Your Valentine

Valentines Day is fast approaching. And I know that most of us are very much agitated for this day to come. But the question is, are you well prepared for it? A lot of my friends already have plans on where to go for their group date. Some have prepared cards and ordered in advance flowers for their loved ones. But they said, physically they are not. During Valentines Day, cards, flowers, chocolates, and the likes are important. But your presence is what matters most. So, you got to prepare yourself.

What are the major problems that you have when it comes to your physique? Well I'm sure like me, ACNE is a major problem. It is so disgusting. It sometimes triggers you to lower your self-esteem. I'm sure we got the same feelings. But now, it is a problem no more. A lot of Acne Products are very much available. Just be sure that the product's name is reliable and would not cause any worse. Never compromise. Enjoy your valentine. Prepare yourself now while you still have time.

I Wanna Die

You know what I feel right now? I really wanna die. Tomorrow will have a debate in class. But that's not the reason why I wanna end my miserable life. I woke this morning with a smile. I really thought and expected that I'll end this day with the sweetest smile I have. But what happened is the opposite. Am I really assuming? People tend to misunderstood me. They don't know me. Even a piece of me, they got no knowledge at all. So why judge? I understand them. But I don't know how long will my patience take me. Any help? I want to cry, but I don't want to see others that I'm crying. I am not weak. I am not coward.
