Eccentricities and Idiosyncracies

Like most people, I probably take me for granted. You know how it goes. You like certain things - and you don't really give it much thought. You like certain ways and you shrug it off because these are the things that you know about you. Like you, I have my own eccentricities and idiosyncracies. I have just never bothered to take notice. For instance, I don't like newly-cooked rice. I don't like eating hot rice, so I prefer to eat leftover...

Thoughts on Death

Death. It's not something you want to think about or talk about.  Life is too precious to think about dying, but every now and then death confronts you.  It rears its ugly head and it reveals itself in the most horrific ways.  Sometimes, death is silent.  It comes in the middle of the night and it takes people away in a sweet embrace.  Most people would probably wish that for themselves.  I do.  I want death to...

Running Thoughts Again

I have been tapping...tapping.. because I feel so much that I want to explode. I have been tapping on these keys and I'd immediately find myself erasing what I have written.  I wanted to write about Life and how cruel it can be.  Life is definitely what happens when you are planning something else. Curiously, I can't seem to find the right words. I can't seem to catch my thoughts. They're everywhere. I feel sad. sad, yes, primarily.I feel melancholic.  I think that word is more accurate. You know what I wish?  That I'd get...

Get Fun and Chic Hospital Uniforms and Scrubs!

Once upon a time, I was on my way home when I saw this guy wearing a white scrub for men standing in front of a local drug store.  I can't remember his face now.  I just remember thinking that he looked like an angel.  I couldn't stop staring and he was staring back. Looking back, he was probably thinking, "Why is this weird girl staring at me?"  The car sped up and that was it - I never saw him again. I'd probably wouldn't recognize him anyway since I don't remember his face.  Truth be told, I'm probably married to him....

A Barbie Called Lyn

I played with Barbie dolls today. I found one of Paige's dolls at the back of the washing machine. It was filthy. I found another one inside the hamper of dirty clothes and it was even dirtier. I found another on top of my law books and yes, it was dirty. They were all naked.  I took all three and I gave them a bath. It was like 1989 all over again. I gave them a bath and then I spent countless minutes untangling their hair. For an hour...

I Can't Figure It Out

So, here's what I have been thinking... For quite a while now, I haven't been going to Church. I have been a lost sheep. I don't have a problem with God. I believe there is one. I have no doubts about that. Let us not go into the semantics of the words God and existence. I have a problem with priests who rape and abuse children, wipe their hands and spout platitudes from the pulpit. I have a problem with the Church that turns a blind eye to all...

Women Love Men in Scrubs

Women just love men in uniform, but you know what else they love? Men in scrubs. Seriously! There’s a certain appeal that goes with the white scrubs.  Call it stereotyping, but you certainly can’t deny the fact. Aside from the impression of stability that these scrubs create, they also give out the impression that you guys (lucky enough to legitimately wear one!) are all-around neat to live with – and women just love men who...

And So I Continue...

with the 365 Thought Provoking Questions to Ask Yourself This Year. So, here goes: If you had to teach something, what would you teach? I'd do a course on Love like Leo Buscaglia OR I'd teach literature, definitely. I'd teach students about tolerance, acceptance and the danger of having a bigoted mind. What would you regret not fully doing, being or having in your life? I try not to regret anything I've done in my life, but I do. I do have things I regret, but I definitely do not regret doing the things I did in 1999-2002.  I do not regret...

Ang Pasyon...Bow!

I woke up to this sound this morning... How'd you like that, huh? I can't even understand a single word they're singing..or rather wailing. Forgive my blasphemous post. I did not wake up happy, that's for sure. But then again, I wasn't too happy with my dreams either. I was dreaming of a ghost. Darn that blasted ghost...

Paige on Boyfriends

I want to share this video of Paige. It'll make you laugh, giggle or at least smile, I promise. :) Yes, she doesn't use "po". It's tragic. We forgot to use "po" around her while she's growing up, so she doesn't know how to use it. Anyway, never mind the po. Just watch the vid. Tinapay, I hope this makes you giggle...
