Today’s thoughts of cravings

Rainy day season in the Philippines – I LOVE this!

I want to watch “Tears For Fears With Per Sorensen Of Fra Lippo Lippi” Live in Manila, I’m such an oldie sometimes. And how many times do I have to miss certain concerts!! Just for the reason I want to pay tickets from my own money, not from my parents.

My food appetite is in a back drop. I’m eating too much less from the past couple days, I realize it’s the same guilt that I feel during the days of its contrary which I’m a glutton. So I strive to eat at least 1 meal a day. LOL

After being so much an avid fan of two Spider Man movies (Tobey Mgguire’s), and after watching Mona Lisa Smile, All Good Things, Crazy/Beautiful, The Virgin Suicides. I realize that Kirsten Dunst is truly my favorite actress.

I’m so STUCKED with Phillipines college basketball! CAN'T MOVE ON!!

I’ll go back working only if it’s my “goal” job. I’m not bored, I can survive with less allowance, no pressures and I’m turning 22 in a week. I’m going back working only if it’s the job that I preferred. I said it again.

I’m assuming this certain thing, putting all the possibilities from what I believed in. (I bet you don’t get it, you’ll read it again) haha

Want to buy a new phone. If not, get back my old lost phone! Lol. And I need a 500GB external hard drive and a new unit of internet router.

You know what? I think I’m still growing (height). Few more centimeters won’t hurt, right? I’m hoping that I really am.

I can’t say I’m religious. But I’m certainly becoming more catholic. I got the need of praying everyday and read verses in the bible, the need of visiting the church for the first time in some nearby towns I’m seldom been, and a collection of novenas.

Thought of the day: Never regret what you’ve done, not even the things you never done before. Because to do or not to do, the most credible reasons exist “as of that moment” (present), not in thinking how it might result in the future, even looking back at the past won’t help.

If Carl Jung says there are 5 Key Elements of Happiness (which I fully agree); for me it can be trim down to 3:

Finance Contentment for career and education

Health Excellent level of mental, emotional and physical health

Relationships Love in self, Happy family, Loyal friends, Marriage, Philosophical faith

I may miss some but, the most with a lot under is relationships in any forms. Maybe because without it, who needs “good” in the first two?

Well, just a thought.

easy come, easy go

They say that being alone is the greatest fear in the world. The word “alone” and “independent” isn’t the same thing. But the minimal similarities can’t be denied.

I may be the best procrastinated person that my friends ever knew. But as long as I can, I don’t want to ask for help. If I need to get through the hard way, then I will, than the easy way.

I don’t need help not because of heightened ego. It’s just that I don’t want myself being used to it. Even advices from friends and family, I don’t easily give in. I keep it all by myself as much as possible.

Relying or asking favor? It seldom happens. Not to mention my parents of course, but still, just enough. Just right for proper education and some material basic things I think I should have. I never took them for granted, I never even ask for a grand birthday party on my entire life. If ever i had, they provided it themselves.

I don’t know if it’s weird or not, but asking someone to give a favor for another individual? It’s like asking me if I will trust that person or not. Is he or she worth asking favor with?

It might be weird but, it isn’t new. Just like girls in deliberating opposite sex. Other than the reason of knowing him by attitude or background etc., it doesn’t end there, of course they want to know if that guy is also willing to take the worst part of them, or, does he mind offering help even if you don’t need one.

Girls might go with you every time you ask her to go out (hey man, that’s easy!) or be alone in a dark room with you. But then, if serious relationship is what you’re looking for, then, respect comes with that; it is earned by your efforts you are trying to show without her asking it, not just with impressing! (impressing is easy, anyone can do that.)

I can be friendly instantly in a “sneaky” way. But once I asked for something, it’s a sign to me that I’m starting to like this person; that he or she is worth knowing as a friend that i could keep; that this person is getting important to me. When something like this had happened, it’s rare. That’s why every time my favor wasn’t met, I get easily disappointed(turn-off).

I can’t help it. I always regard it as a waste of time. (I don’t want to go further anymore!!) Let’s just say, now it’s making sense. Easy come, easy go.

new wave

New Wave is a sub-genre of rock music that emerged in the mid to late 1970s alongside punk rock. The term at first generally was synonymous with punk rock before being considered a genre in its own right that incorporated aspects of electronic and experimental music, mod subculture, disco and 1960s pop music. 

New Wave, as a term, has been used to describe all post-punk rock music, yet, it distances itself from other post-punk movements as it displays characteristics common to pop music, rather than the more "arty" post-punk.

As a genre, it incorporates much of the original punk rock sound and ethos, such as an emphasis on short and punchy songs. As a term, New Wave is often used to describe music which was quirky and eccentric, yet also catchy and pop at heart, incorporating clear melodious hooks. In such a way, its style varies greatly, ranging from 1950s and 60s rock revivalism, ska and reggae-styled music, to synthpop-oriented dance.
