Out and About ...

Missed me? Hehehe. It's a Monday afternoon and I'm at home. I took the day off. Actually, just the half-day off. Work was light. Was in Megamall earlier. I'm just checking mails. 24 from NG today. Whew. Can I BE anymore kilig? ... Speaking of NG, he outed us on the Jamie Group. He asked me first if it would be ok, I said yes. Anyhoo, this is a portion of his email to the group......things just happened one night online, and I have not looked back since! We have great plans for the future, and I thank this group, each and everyone (Jamie's music brought me and V together!) on a daily basis! Music and good friends have a way of bringing people together don't they??...

I grabbed the spoon. I'm SO riding the bus.

Prayers check for everyone.

God Bless us all.

Could I BE any happier? ...

Ohkay, sorry for the lack of updates. It's quite hard to post nowadays without me talking about NG [case in point...]

He's been making me happy. Yep, pretty much everyday since last month.

One month, but it seems longer. I guess, maybe because we've known each other since 2000-01.

I am in an online relationship. I never thought I would be in one nor I would actually be happy about it.

To quote Mr. Gump, Love is like a box of chocolates...[I bet you know the rest....]

I am happy. Period.

Prayers check for everyall. [yes even for short-necked guy and moron...hell is filled with people like you... (that line is from FRIENDS btw)] Check. Check. Check.

One month...

It's been one month since NG and I had that 'chat'...187 emails and counting later...and I lost count on the hours we spent chatting. [we call it our weekend chat marathon...] Sheesh. Everything is happening so fast. You just CANNOT control your feelings. Well, if you can, good for you, in my case, I can't. I'm just taking it in stride. Oh well. Prayers check for everybody. I must to go zzzzland now. I'm sleepy. An hour of badminton with my cousin was good. I lost [yet again] but it's all good. God Bless us all.

Get on the bus already...

*The Bus

You know, love is just like someone waiting for a bus. When the bus comes, you look at it and you say to yourself "eeee...so full....cannot sit down. I'll wait for the next one".

So you let the bus go and waited for the second bus. Then the second bus came, you looked at it you say,"eeee...this bus is so old...so shabby!"

So you let thebus go and again, decided to wait for the next bus. After a while another bus came, it's notcrowded, not old but yousaid, "eeee... not air-conditioned ...better waitforthe next one".

So again you let the bus go and decided to wait for the next bus. Then the sky started to get dark as it is getting late. You panicked and jumped immediately inside the next bus. It is not until much later that you found out that you had boarded the wrong bus! So you wasted your time and money waiting forwhat you want! Even if an air-conditioned bus comes, you can't ensure that the air-conditioned bus won't break down or whetheror not the air conditioner will be too cold for you.

Wanting to get what you want is not wrong. But it wouldn't hurt to give other person a chance, right? If you find that the "bus" doesn't suit you just press the red button and get off the bus! (as simple as that!) Hey who said life is fair??? The best thing to do is be observant and open while you scrutinize the bus. If it doesn't suityou, get off. But you must always have an extra something which you could use for the next bus that comes.

But wait........ I'm sure you have this experience before....

You saw a bus coming (the bus you want, of course) you flagged it but the driver acted as if he did not see you and zoomed pass you! It just wasn't meant for you! The bottom line is, beingloved is like waiting for a bus you want. Getting on the bus and appreciating the bus by giving it a chance depends totally on you. If you haven't made any choice, WALK! Walking is like being out of love. The good side of it is you can still choose any bus you want... the rest who couldn't afford another ride would just have to be content with the bus they rode on, ugly or not.

One more thing.... sometimes its better to choose a bus you are already familiar with rather than gamble with a bus that is unfamiliar to you. But then again, life wouldn't be complete without the risks involved.

BUT THERE'S ONE BUS THAT I FORGOT TO TELL YOU ABOUT - THE BUS THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO WAIT FOR...IT WILL JUST STOP ON ITS OWN AND WILL ASK YOU TO COME INSIDE AND TAKE A FREE RIDE FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.

You Never Lose By Loving

You Always Lose By Holding Back
