i was going through my 'memory box' (made from 2 rusty lopez's shoe boxes)... spotted my ice breaker 2 box.. i guess almost everyone knows it.. (most especially JOU 31)... back in our sophomore years, we were tasked by our professor Ms. Jibrin to pick a question from the box (ice breaker) then we answer the question SINCERELY... (it helped us cope with public speaking dilemmas)... :-) so i wanna do it here.. haha wla kz akong magwa eh.. haha :-)
1. What dou you want to see happen in your life at sixty? ~ By the time i reach 60, i want to have my own beach house whether here or in the Bahamas will be fine for me.. (haha) and then i want to see my family with me, from my husband to my children to my granchildren... hrmmm.. and i want to have my own private beach and my own private hanger with my own private plane and my own yatch and my husband and i holding hands while watching the sunset... :-*
2. Once, just to attract attention, I... ~ I made fun of almost everything i see just to flash my 'incredible smile' hahahaha (ang kapal!! hahaha) But seriously, that's what i always do most especially my crush is a few metres away, i smile and laugh alot.. :-)
3. What is the best gift that you can give yourself? why? ~ I want to give myself a butterfly orchard... i loev butterflies and one time when we were in Baguio I saw this butterfly orchard in camp john hay and it was the most beautiful place i've ever seen.. butterflies everywhere and flowers all around... It was actually an open air garden before with a mermaid statue at the middle of the pond... ANYWAY, now its a butterfly orchard.. what's the point, ahrrrmm.. i wanna have one someday! haha
4. What was the most outrageous lie you ever told? ~ There was this time back in highschool, i think it was my junior year... anyway, i came home late coz my friends and i were having a 'bonding session' in a friend's house... FRANTIC that my mom will kill me coz i came home late, i made up this story while i was riding the tricycle... when i got home i told my mom THAT WE SAW A GHOST IN MY FRIEND's VILLAGE... my mom was shocked! and she was just looking at me... AND I WAS CRYING... (stupid!) haha.. the irritating part of the story is that MY MOM WASN't MAD AT ALL... (stupid!!)
5. One of the best things I ever got for free was... ~ my computer? haha coz without brando i will not be able to blog as long and as often as i want.. haha I LOVE BRANDO THE COMPUTER!!! :-)
6. When you think of your lonely times, what scares you about the experience? ~ The fact that i was feeling lonely and that i was AGAIN crying myself to sleep... It feels really bad knowing that YOU ARE LONELY YET YOU'RE NOT ALONE... it sucks! and that is the scary part whenever i have my 'lonely moment attack'...
7. Cite a situation wherein you felt life had been unfair to you... ~ Everytime i turn off the lights and i see the darkness envelop me... :c coz whenever im alone at night thats when i realize that there are 'holes' in my well being that needs to be filled then i ask... WHY ME??
8. How is security demonstarted in your lifestyle? ~ hrmmm... I grew up thinking that having the capacity to live/survive each day means security... I live in a 'secured' life always asking my parents to buy me what i want and not really working hard to have it... I think i was never the independent type, being the youngest and 'baby' of the family made things even worse... hrmm.. my point of view bout security mostly revolves in money (as bad as it may sound but true)... [did i answered the ? right?!]
9. One thing that I can't stand to be nagged about is... ~ that im coming home late at night because I HAVE A BOYFRIEND... my gawd! its a constant 'issue' im battling with my mom... haaaay! kangawit na kya mag-explain... nakaw!
10. Do you consider yourself a good lover? How? ~ yun un eh! haha I really don't know... haven't been in a relationship.. EVER... yes! NBSB in the haus... (yuck! sounds weird!)... But I think im the type who risks my happiness over the happiness of a loveone... *winks*
there are times when i can't wait to see the face of my prince charming YET at the back of my head i know that
it's not yet time to reveal himself coz im still scared of what lies ahead...
knowing that you've made something that made you satisfied is worthy of all the risks put together coz finally
you've done something that gave you achieve self worth..(whatever) haha...
living a life full of hatred is a life not worth living at all...
life is a game, win or lose its how you play that counts...
why can't people just be who THEY REALLY WANT TO BE... *sigh*
love can be the way of your destruction when you don't know how to use it properly...

All you need is already within you, only you must approach your self with reverence and love.
Self-condemnation and self-distrust are grievous errors. Your constant flight from pain and search for pleasure is a
sign of love you bear for your self, all I plead with you is this: make love of your self perfect. Deny yourself
nothing -- glue your self infinity and eternity and discover that you do not need them; you are beyond".~ Sri
Nisargadatta Maharaj
"And remember, my sentimental friend, that a heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much
