Enjoy your weekend!  

11/7/2009 6:56 pm
As tempting as it is to write countless of blogs that suddenly pop in my head like there's no tomorrow. I always try to hold back and try to slow down about what I write and slow down in what I do in real life everyday because I value having a good long rest and a peace of mind like anybody else.

Please excuse any misunderstandings in my post or comments.

I realise I come across as very strong minded person at times. I've my reasons and those reasons would at times go back to my upbringing and how much crap goes on in my family/ relatives' life. I've been close to lifting the lid on people, but I've restrained many times over the years. I guess it's the norm for dysfunctional families.

I'm not complaining about it, in fact it has helped me so much in comprehending how odd people really are in too many ways and made me appreciate where each person is coming from no matter how unsavoury s/he maybe. Those whom I allow to get real close are people who have a good character because I've had enough of seedy kinds.

It's hard when I'm not the kind of person who takes any pleasure on turning a blind eye on injustice anywhere. I'm very grateful though of how it shaped me as the person that I am today. For better or worst.

However, I really mean no harm and wish no ill for anyone even though at times, it's tempting to tell someone to shut up for their own good and tell myself to zip it too here and in the real world. Well I've said it, but not as blunt as shut up most of the time. I say chill out or calm down or stop doing certain things.

I've felt a need to respond to comprehend what was said by someone else the other day. It was an interesting comment. I’m wondering about people’s intentions, purposes, what they wish to achieve and how.

Was about to respond to a friend's query about how my week went. In short, it was pretty good and enjoyable. It's a little time consuming to fill in the small details of weekly life and perhaps it's better left unsaid until perhaps I bring it up in a future topic.

I've to remind myself how my bf is very protective of himself and how my mom and bf are the most protective of me.

Bed time, good night for now peeps.

Well, you don't get anywhere in life by being "meely-mouthed," as we say here, meaning 'someone who doesn't speak up for themselves.'

But you just have to watch you don't come across as snappy, abrupt and rude while doing it, and that's the hard part

For those with strong opinions and a strong will they have to be careful how they deliver their thoughts otherwise it comes across the wrong way, I feel

Janey,

Good morning and happy Sunday!!! Well very happy this morn waking at 3am and rosary. Agree w/ Dog...up there on his comments. When folks come off too brassy and what have you as God's gift to the world. Yes, at times very hard to swallow. But, the main point is everyone has feelings and if it's kept bottled up sooner or later will explode in someone's face. I know a lot about dysfunctional family live with one etc... The tolerance and abuse of how far it gets can really be trying. So, love is the really big factor on dealing. Muahsssssssss and hugggggggggggggssss ate

Good afternoon 'te. Miss chatting with you.
I can handle it most of the time, only when I haven't had enough sleep that I am tired and grouchy. eheheh

I don't ever want to fight physically, only verbally without insulting anyone hopefully. I learnt it from Linguistic classes, how to argue without being rude and how to request for thing politely. Nice to see you.

It's refreshing to see familiar slangs. Haven't had a regular Brit commentator, the last guy was very funny and a nice guy too, but he was grumpy about the censorship here and about how people were responding to him.

I've learnt over the recent years to stand up for myself, being a Filipina in a Caucasian world. lol
