who do you want to meet?

If you have a Friendster account this is one of the questions being asked on your profile. I recently answered it and I was able to come up with seven persons. My first choice is the Dalai Lama – he is an inspiration to me, he seemed to be a very just and righteous person. I admire his patience because I lack that trait. Anyone who knows me can definitely attest to that! One of my dreams is to go to Tibet, see the Himalayas and probably a meet and greet session with the man… the 14th Dalai Lama! But I think he is currently residing in India because he was exiled, might as well go to there. Second choice is Mother Theresa as we all know she was called the living SAINT, no I’m not dreaming to become one but what if I am? I know it’s all impossible but who knows? Her simple ways of showing love, care and generosity inspires me as well. She was called a humanitarian and an advocate for the poor. Considering she was not that rich but she was able to do all these. Who doesn’t dream of doing such humane acts? My third choice is Britney Spears, I know, I know from the Dalai Lama to Mother Theresa to Britney? Huh? Well I adore her energy the way she performs, I love it. Her voice is not that good but for me she is a total performer I thought she would never bounce back from her pantyless days, her bald bald head and super duper fashion victim outfit. I love her new album CIRCUS specially the song with the same title circus! Fourth choice is my ultimate idol MARIAH Carey. I hated her at first because my dad use to watch her MTV “HERO” most of the times back in the day when Mariah released this single and I used to say to him “yuck why are you watching her???” It started to irritate me because wherever I was during those times you would hear it. When she started to release always be my baby and always be my baby remixes featuring the Brat I started to like her especially when she released her butterfly album, loved the single BREAKDOWN so much! She also released a remix with this song featuring bone thugs and harmony. She was the first female pop singer to crossover between rap, hip hop and pop. After she did that a lot of female pop singers started to do what she was doing, she is unquestionably the innovator! If I’m not mistaken she has the most number one songs and I think she recently trounce The Beatles. I don’t know if any of the new and young singers can outdo her. So when my dad realized that I started to be a fanatic of Mariah he was laughing at me, reminding me of my exasperation when he used to listen to her songs. Next on my list is Saint Theresa “the little flower” she is absolutely my patron saint! Whenever I pray at Carmelite church I always sit next to her and ask for her help. She sends me roses with no hesitation and helps me pray to the Lord. She is very devoted to whatever she does whether she is just washing the dishes or plain watering the plants. Her story encourages me to be like her childlike yet dedicated. She was just 24 when she died. 6th choice is Chinese superstar Andy Lau. Gosh he is my ultimate crush when it comes to Chinese actors. I don’t know maybe he is good looking? Hahaha… My favorite movie of his is The DUEL he was the bad guy in this movie but nevertheless he was magnificent on his performance. I love watching Chinese movies because of him. I remember I also watch a movie of his, the Chinese version of street fighter in 1993 it was so funny not only it was hilarious it has a love story and has action scenes as well. It starred a lot of Chinese super stars like jack Cheung, Aaron kwok, ekin Chen, chingmy yau and a lot more. Last on my list is another Chinese actor Maggie Cheung I like her movies with Jacky Cheung I thought they were real lovers when I started watching Chinese movies. They look good together. They have this chemistry between them. I recently saw her at FTV when she attended an opening of man I forgot if it was Prada, Gucci or channel, sorry but my main point is she still looks the same when I first saw her movie back in 1992 or 1993 the same sexy figure. I consider her beauty a classic and timeless… So those are my sort of icons... Who’s yours?

for the ladies

Another good email i got from my friend lea halili...


If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away.
If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay.
Stop making excuses for a man and his behaviour.
Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache.
Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship that's not meant to be.

Slower is better.

Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy.

If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve then heck no, you can't "be friends". A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend.
Don't settle.

If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is
Don't stay because you think "it will get better"
You'll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better.
The only person you can control in a relationship is you.

Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women..

He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant, why would he treat you any differently?

Always have your own set of friends separate from his.
Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something bothers you, speak up..

Never let a man know everything.* He will use it against you later.

You cannot change a man's behavior.* Change comes from within.

Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are...
Even if he has more education or in a better job.

Do not make him into a quasi-god.
He is a man, nothing more nothing less.
Never let a man define who you are.
Never borrow someone else's man.
If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you.
A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you.

All men are NOT dogs.

You should not be the one doing all the bending...
Compromise is two way street.

You need time to heal between relationships. ..
There is nothing cute about baggage...
Deal with your issues before pursuing a new relationship

You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you...
A relationship consists of two WHOLE individuals. ..
Look for someone complimentary. ...not supplementary.

Dating is fun...even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right.

Make him miss you sometimes... when a man always know where you are, and you're always readily available to him - he takes it for granted

Never move into his mother's house.. Never co-sign for a man.

Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you need.*
Keep him in your radar but get to know others.

Scared of being alone is what makes a lot of women stay in relationships that are abusive or hurtful: Dr. Phill

You should know that:
You're the best thing that could ever happen to anyone and if a man mistreats you, he'll miss out on a good thing. If he was attracted to you in the 1st place, just know that he's not the only one.

They're all watching you, so you have a lot of choices.
Make the right one.

Ladies take care of your own hearts....









valentines valentimes

How did you spend your valentine’s day? If you’re asking me, I spent my day with friends and family… anu pa nga ba Valerie? I didn’t know if being single is getting to me but I didn’t enjoy our dinner. Maybe because of the songs the band was playing those heartbreaking love songs and all of the love birds around me. Do I sound bitter? Yeah I was very envious and irritated at the same time. Gosh. That’s why when my brother told us to leave because he was already tired without any hesitation I said yes. I would just like to thank God that despite of this sickening singleness I was able to have a sumptuous dinner with my family.

i just want to share a very nice email i got from my good friend veyn

To My Friends Who Are...........SINGLE
Love is like a butterfly. The more you chase it, the more it eludes you. But

if you just let it fly, it will come to you when you least expect it. Love can
make you happy but often it hurts, but love's only special when you give it

to someone who is really worth it. So take your time and choose the best.








To My Friends Who Are............NOT SO SINGLE
Love isn't about becoming somebody else's 'perfect person.' It's about
finding someone who helps you become the best person you can be.









To My Friends Who Are............PLAYBOY/GIRL TYPE
Never say 'I love you' if you don't care. Never talk about feelings if they

aren't there. Never touch a life if you mean to break a heart. Never look
in the eye when all you do is lie. The cruelest thing a guy can do to a girl is
to let her fall in love when he doesn't intend to catch her fall and it works
both ways...








To My Friends Who Are............MARRIED
Love is not about 'it's your fault', but 'I'm sorry.' Not 'where are you',
but 'I'm right here.' Not 'how could you', but 'I understand.' Not 'I
wish you were', but 'I'm thankful you are.'









To My Friends Who Are............ENGAGED
The true measure of compatibility is not the years spent together but how
good you are for each other.








To My Friends Who Are............HEARTBROKEN
Heartbreaks last as long as you want and cut as deep as you allow them to
go. The challenge is not how to survive heartbreaks but to learn from them.








To My Friends Who Are............NAIVE
How to be in love: Fall but don't stumble, be consistent but not too
persistent, share and never be unfair, understand and try not to demand,
and get hurt but never keep the pain.









To My Friends Who Are............POSSESSIVE
It breaks your heart to see the one you love happy with someone else but
it's more painful to know that the one you love is unhappy with you.








To My Friends Who Are............AFRAID TO CONFESS
Love hurts when you break up with someone. It hurts even more when
someone breaks up with you. But love hurts the most when the person you
love has no idea how you feel.







To My Friends Who Are............STILL HOLDING ON
A sad thing about life is when you meet someone and fall in love, only to
find out in the end that it was never meant to be and that you have wasted years on someone who wasn't worth it.


If he isn't worth it now
,
he's not going to be worth it a year or 10 years from now
. Let go.....









TO ALL MY FRIENDS.......
My wish for you is a man/woman whose love is honest, strong, mature,
never-changing, uplifting, protective, encouraging, rewarding and unselfish.
^_^


MAD = NEYO

http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/n/ne_yo/mad.html

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh...
Oh oh oh...

[Verse 1]

She's starin' at me,
I'm sittin', wonderin' what she's thinkin'.
Mmmmm
Nobody's talkin',
'Cause talkin' just turns into screamin'.
Ohhh...
And now is I'm yellin' over her,
She's yellin' over me.
All that that means
Is neither of us is listening,
(And what's even worse).
That we don't even remember why were fighting.

So both of us are mad for...

[Hook]

Nothin'
(Fighting for).
Nothin'
(Crying for).
Nothin'
(Whoahhh).
But we won't let it go for
Nothin'
(No not for)
Nothin'.
This should be nothin' to a love like what we got.
Ohhh, baby...

I know sometimes
It's gonna rain...
But baby, can we make up now
'Cause I can't sleep through the pain
(Cant sleep through the pain).

[Chorus]

Girl, I don't wanna go to bed
(Mad at you),
And I don't want you to go to bed
(Mad at me).
No, I don't wanna go to bed
(Mad at you),
And I don't want you to go to bed
(Mad at me)
Ohhh no no no...

[Verse 2]

And it gets me upset, girl
When you're constantly accusing.
(Askin' questions like you've already known).
We're fighting this war, baby
When both of us are losing.
(This ain't the way that love is supposed to go).

Whoaaaaaaaaa...
[What happened to workin' it out].
We've falled into this place
Where you ain't backin' down
And I ain't backin' down.

So what the hell do we do now...
It's all for...

[Hook]

Nothin'
(Fighting for).
Nothin'
(Crying for).
Nothin'
(Whoahhh).
But we won't let it go for
Nothin'
(No not for)
Nothin'.
This should be nothin' to a love like what we got.
Ohhh, baby...

I know sometimes
It's gonna rain...
But baby, can we make up now
'Cause I can't sleep through the pain
(Cant sleep through the pain).

[Chorus]

Girl, I don't wanna go to bed
(Mad at you),
And I don't want you to go to bed
(Mad at me).
No, I don't wanna go to bed
(Mad at you),
And I don't want you to go to bed
(Mad at me)
Ohhh no no no...

[Bridge]

Oh baby this love ain't gonna be perfect,
(Perfect, perfect, oh oh).
And just how good it's gonna be.
We can't fuss and we can't fight
Long as everything alright between us
Before we go to sleep.

Baby, we're gonna be happy.

I know sometimes
It's gonna rain...
But baby, can we make up now
'Cause I can't sleep through the pain
(Cant sleep through the pain).

[Chorus]

Girl, I don't wanna go to bed
(Mad at you),
And I don't want you to go to bed
(Mad at me).
No, I don't wanna go to bed
(Mad at you),
And I don't want you to go to bed
(Mad at me)
Ohhh no no no...
