Little girls grow up.

I am getting married now..and somebody wrote this poem for me.It made me cry.. Thanks Jim! Jeune FillePoem by James Rist When did she trade tousle head for layered tresses?When did long fragrant baths begin?When did sandals and frocks incline to heels and dresses?When did the girl and the beauty first meet? All those endless summers of play;Running and romping--wild like the boys;Free of care for ruby lips and broken heart….Loving most her cuddly toys,And thinking herself too plain to matter,She disdained signs of the woman’s start....

Some major babbling!

I don't know if my life is boring or not but Sussette asked me once if I think my life would ever be boring...I said, "Hmmm...I guess not." You see, I have the knack, no matter how unknowingly, to put myself in such a freakingly complicated situation. Lets just call it, my freeeeeeeakin' talent.No, I am not jumping off buildings or airplanes.Nope, I am not even a spy for the CIA. Hell, I want to leave Bin Laden's ass in peace.Nope, I am not screwing...

The art of NOT keeping Secrets

I am a keeper of secrets, or rather, an unworthy keeper of secrets. Really, really unworthy, because I can't keep it to myself... so, I bombard Erbe with all these secrets I have been told.Sometimes, I wonder why people keep telling me their secrets but would complain about my sheer inability to keep them.I have realized that people I know from the time I haven't even freakin' menstruated yet have their stories to tell..Damn freakingly good juicy...

Weddings!Before Erbe came to my life I NEVER actually thought of marrying anybody, or wanting to get married. Yeah sure, there were those I was with and I thought, "Maybe.." But there was never this: "I gotta marry u NOW!" feeling.In fact, before Erbe came, I wanted to get married when I would be like 35. Yep, u freakin' read it right, 3-5! 35, ladies and gentleman 35! And I was even considering moving it to the big 4-0! Well, that is if my biological...

Drools and more drools

For the longest time, i have drooled over Brad Pitt. Now, sue me for being just like every other woman in the world, drooling over him, but he sure is "delectable". A feast for the eyes! It's funny though that when I watched Mr. and Mrs. Smith, I barely noticed he is there.. I was drooling over Angelina Jolie. Damn! That woman really is somethin' else! Tan-tan (a classmate) though hated the film for the lack of exposure of Ms. Jolie's delicious fanny...

The irony

See this guy? He is an old man, an old blind man, who earns his way through life by jamming by the Robertson Department Store. Basically everyday he earns like, what? 50 bucks (if he is lucky) for a day.But my Daddy is a cruel, cruel man. He once told me that this guy is the leader of a syndicate. He accuses this man of forcing the streetchildren to beg for him! Forgive my Daddy, he is a very imaginative man. Daddy talaga o!La lang, i just find the...

The New PRIEST -- I gotta share this!

A new priest at his first mass was so nervous he could hardly speak. After mass he asked the monsignor how he had done.The monsignor replied, "When I am worried about getting nervous on the pulpit, I put a glass of vodka next to the water glass. If I start to get nervious I take a sip."So the next Sunday he took the monsignor's advice. At the beginning of the sermon, he got nervous and took a drink.He proceeded to talk up a storm. Upon return to...
