Deep thoughts challenge: day 19
If you could be anywhere in the world, but you had to be there for a certain cause, where would you be and why?
What kind of cause? Does having fun and fulfilling my need for history counts as a cause? ‘Cause if it is, Imma go to Pompeii. Why? I don’t know. I just want to go there. I want to know what it feels like to walk on the street of a town...

Talk about your extended family. Why do you think they are the way they are?
I am somewhat close to my mom’s side of extended family. I grew up with them, although I was never close to my cousins, but I get along really well with my aunties. As for why they are like that, I’m sure it’s the same with everybody, life’s fucked us up and...

Who was the last person you kissed? What would they say if they saw you know?
I last kissed my ex boyfriend of somewhat (on and off) 5 years. I think he would probably say “Hey! You took off your braces”. I did took off my braces of 4 years, a day before Christmas.

What are you passionate about?
MUSIC. Like I stated, music is the only thing that made sense to me now. I used to hate listening to music (I know, now that I think about it again I realise that it was very stupid of me), but now? There is no way I’d live one day without having music ringing in my ears. Every part of my life is full of music. I am so...

What do you believe in? And not just God or Atheism.
I believe in lust. Lust makes the world goes round. And I believe in the existence of the seven deadly sins. As far as I am concerned, I might have done all those seven deadly sins, I think we all do.

When you are stressed, what can you use as an outlet? Why do you think it helps you?
First off, I would like to say that this challenge is beginning to sound like what a therapist would ask me. Anyway, I use music when I’m stressed. That’s it. Because, music is the only thing that make sense to me now. ‘Nuff said.
I'm in Manila, Mom!
Mom: I had a weird dream last night. I dreamt that I was riding an ugly boat and everyone I met left me. I saw your auntie, and she left me. Then I saw your dad, he also left me.
Me: You didn't see me or met me in your dream, did you?
Mom: No. I didn't see you. Why?
Me: Because I'm in Manila, Mom.
Mom: What?
Me: Last night, I dream that I was in Manila. That's why you didn't meet me when you were riding your ugly boat. *storms off*

Where do you see your best friend in 10 years?
I hope she finally owns a ship she always wanted to. She told me once, that she wants to own a ship of her own, go sailing to go fishing and owns a fish market and probably own a seafood restaurant. I think it’s cool that she had that kind of dream/plan. So I hope in 10 years, she at least own one thing from those...

If you could trade places with anyone for one week, who would it be and why?
Hmm, I don’t think I want to. I mean of course I would want to know what it’s like to be Steve Jobs for a day or something but what if the day that we trade place was his bad day. What’s the point? Anyway, other than that, I just don’t really think I’m cut out for this trade place thing....

Do you feel protective over someone?
Nope. I hate protective people. Enough said.
Deep thoughts challenge: day 10
Did you have a good day or a bad day? Where do you think that defining line was?
Of course I had my good and bad day. I think I am most certain that the defining lines between those two are my internet connection and speed. If the connection is good, then I have a good day. If the connection sucks, then I have a bad day. Also, the amounts of time that I spent...

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
10 years from now, would be on 2020. I like even numbers but then that means by the time its 2020; I would be 32 years old. Dammit! I’m old. I hate being old. I hate having those responsibilities. Anyway, by the time I’m 32, I think I have already been living on a foreign country for four years, I hope. Other than that I...

Write about the first moment that comes to your head when you read the words “childhood memory”
So-so. I had my ups and downs. I was quite blessed that I once spent my childhood on Manchester and are able to travel to other parts of Europe. But I had quite an abusive childhood. It’s not like my dad is beating me up. But my dad was so strict, he would scream like...

Did you know that...
… there is a bra that you can wear under your skin? By implanting 2 silicone bags at the bottom of the breast and harnessing them in place with string or something, certain cosmetic surgery offices are now offering to give women a permanent wonderbra-like lift. The operation costs about $6000 and takes only a couple of hours.
Why would somebody done this kind of surgery? $6000? Really?...

Think of the last person you hugged. What would you do if they vanished completely? Saturday
I’m not a hugger. I mean i’m just not into hugging as much as other people. Anyway, I think I last hugged my friend. We were on our (somewhat) college reunion, and I just had a car accident that day. I was completely pissed off at what happen that day. I kept screaming...

Somebody from my dad’s family just passed away today. Instead of feeling bad or anything, what comes on my mind is ONE DOWN, OTHERS TO GO!
