I said I will be back perhaps wiser and younger. I am back, checked. Wiser? Learning to be. Younger? Damn I forgot to change those numbers around.
I have been reading your blogs many of you have mentioned their reasons for your blogs. Mine is just to share my experience, my thoughts and hopefully get an insight from you, make me wiser and have a good laugh

Learning French?

Someone: “bonjour tout le monde”
Me: “ so that's hello everyone in French, ok that’s enough French lesson for today that’s all the brain can handle for now.”

Seriously to me learning should be part of our daily life. We can learn anything if we want to and will keep our brain cells active. Nowadays we are so lucky because there is vast source of resources to learn new things such the internet, TV, radio, books etc. Not to mention we can learn from our own experiences and experience of others. Learning a new thing doesn’t have to have any practical applications. Even if you are not going to use it if you want to, just learn it. For example I want to learn a new language that I am not going to use but I still would like to learn. Incidentally I also read this from the book Eat Pray Love. There are many things I want to learn and I would like to grab every opportunity if I can and while I still can. Ah so many things I want to learn yet so little time but I shall do it one day at a time and whenever the opportunities come.

What do you want to learn? Are you going for it?

Wiser me: Life is the worst teacher ever because we get the tests first before we get the lesson but life is also the best teacher once you get and apply those lessons. If you get the lessons from life then there should be no reason to be subjected to the same tests again.


Happy learning everyday , everyone !

I HAD A DREAM
THAT DAYS AND NIGHTS I’LL BE WITH HIM.
THAT HE WILL GIVE TO ALL MY WHIM
BUT ALAS IT’S JUST A DREAM

HE WAS MY PROTECTOR
MY BEST FRIEND
HE LOVED ME TILL THE END
WHATEVER I SAY HE WILL BEND.

I GAVE HIM LOVE HE MAY NOT KNOW
BUT TIME HAS COME TO LET HIM GO
HE WAS WITH ME IN MY HIGHS AND LOW
I ADMIT I MISS HIM SO

HE WAS IRREPLACEABLE
THOUGH MANY AVAILABLE
HE WAS SO ADORABLE
AND TRULY ADMIRABLE

I MISS MY NAMED DAIGURU
SAMOYED JAPANESE SPITZ CROSSED

SAME NEW GOAL

It is 2014 a new year a new beginning, new hope. Another trial perhaps? Perplexity and mishaps? Are you ready? You bet I am.

Someone said “try and try until you succeed” but Me said “even before I try I already think that I will succeed because to me trying is success”. How is that for extreme positivism? Well of course when I say trying itself is a success I am referring to it with success as a goal. Don’t try to jump off a building and expect not to fall, silly. Success is a step ladder we take them one step at a time and each step is a success, it requires planning and preparation. Unlike success failure doesn’t require planning or preparation you don’t have to take it a step at a time but they can be minimized and can be avoided. Just like falling off the ladder. Failing to plan is planning to fail.

Patience is a key ingredient of success but patience alone will take you nowhere it has to come with perseverance. Don’t wait for perfect condition, the perfect timing is now, every steps counts. There will be obstacles and they will definitely be useful for your goal. With each step you will get stronger and stronger, if you get tired rest if you must but don’t rest for too long because you may lose the momentum. You don’t need money to succeed you just need determination, discipline, perseverance, patience and maybe a friend to tag along. So good luck to you and me my friend, with our New Weight Goal. Let’s try and try until we succeed.

Let’s drink to our success I heard alcohol makes you lean.

Of course success may come with some haters but hey why care?

H A T E R S
H- Having
A – Angers
T – Towards
E – Everyone
R – Reaching
S – Success

It has been a mystery to me lately that some of my mails if left overnight in the mail box,appear to have been nibbled or eaten by something and I can’t figure out what and why. One day I went to my mailbox and dipped my hand into it without looking first. I felt and touched something strange. I shivered in panic, screamed and ran back inside the house. I have to compose myself and gather strength to go back there and get my mails. This time before I dipped my hand I looked first. OMG one of my fears as I suspected it’s a snail. A snail is eating my mail.

So is that why we call them snail mail? LOL I wonder why? There’s plenty of grass on the front lawn I don’t use snail poison so why eat my mail snail? Oh I get it they want a bit of junk food too sometimes or a bit of variety perhaps.
I have always been scared of alive moving snails they are creepy crawlies I can’t even step on them or kill them. I don’t know why. But I don’t mind eating one of those edible variety cooked in coconut cream, yummy escargot.
Lesson learned before you dipped your hand into something have a thorough look first because you might be dipping into one of your greatest fears.

What are you most scared of? I have a few but nothing that is paralyzing just something that I would rather avoid.

Happy New Year I hope in the coming year we can all conquer our fears

Tougher not wiser - another new years resolution to make.

Someone:“... do not fall in love in the chat room.”
Me: (face blushing with both hands covering face in embarrassment) “ I have.”

Silly me, with that big L sign, that was in my first week of joining FFF. Looking back I did not really fall in love to the handle/person because I did not really know him. I say I fell in love because I felt the feeling of being in love. That feeling of surrender, the willingness to do anything and to give up everything in the name of love. Does that make sense?

Wiser? Me: Doing the same mistake second time is not a mistake it is stupidity whether in or out of the chat room. So, before I make the same mistake I will have to prove first that the first one was really a mistake. Let me elaborate my point a bit more. If you bought something which you thought was a genuine item but later proved that it was a fake then buying from the same store or supplier again aiming to get a genuine article then that is stupidity.

Oh wait, I just realized I am talking about myself here. Well I guess that makes me stupid not wiser. The first time I call that my baptism, I did not handle that well I hang my handle very quickly and I was born again.
The second one I now call that initiation. Look I’m still here I survived and laughing out loud. I may not have been wiser but I say I am tougher, so let’s see what the next one will be if ever there may be. I guess it won’t be long I will be expert in this field. So watch this blog. Ah, an addition to my new year’s resolution, “don’t fall in love too easily, stupid.”

I believe they meant no harm and no reason to harm me, it is just their game or fantasy and I accidentally traverse their playing field. So no harm done. Come on you! Don’t laugh at me, laugh with me laughing at me.

Hey I'm ready I have my thick jacket on to protect my onion skin and I have a shield to protect me from whatever you will throw at me for being stupid and shouting it all over blog land, ha, I'm a tough girl ya' know.

Aray ko, binatukan ako! Sige kayo pag nagalit ako sa inyo ha - iiyak ako.

One of my true love now blogging and emoticons.

So is tougher wiser? What do you think?

Psychiatrist vs. Bartender

This was forwarded to Me by Someone who doesn't want to be named, doesn't want to be seen, doesn't want to be heard. Enjoy.

Ever since I was a , I've always had a fear of someone under my bed at night.
So I went to a shrink and told him 'I've got problems.
Every time I go to bed I think there's somebody under it. I'm scared. I think I'm going crazy!
'Just put yourself in my hands for one year,' said the shrink.
'Come talk to me three times a week and we should be able to get rid of those fears'.
'How much do you charge?'

'Eighty dollars per visit,' replied the doctor.

I'll think about it,' I said.
Six months later, I met the doctor on the street.
'Why didn't you come to see me about those fears you were having?' he asked.
'Well, Eighty bucks a visit three times a week for a year is over Twelve thousand dollars! A bartender cured me for $10.
I was so happy to have saved all that money that I bought me a new pickup!'
'Is that so!' With a bit of an attitude he said, 'and how, may I ask, did a bartender cure you?'

'He told me to cut the legs off the bed! - Ain't nobody under there now!!'

STAY AWAY FROM THE SHRINKS......HAVE A DRINK & TALK TO YOUR BARTENDER


May I add check those closets too.

During a lady's medical examination, the doctor says:-

"Your heart, lungs, pulse and blood pressure are all fine.

Now let me see the bit that gets you ladies into all kinds of trouble."

The lady starts taking off her clothes but is interrupted by the doctor.

"No! No! Don't remove your clothes... Just stick out your tongue




MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ONE AND ALL, DON'T FORGET THE REASON FOR THE SEASON

Me:”I have no topic to tackle
I don’t have a story to tell.
Should I go back to my F words?
Or P perhaps? Forgive me Lord.
Don’t give me shit about this one
Joke is not mine, it’s from someone”


I hereby request a raise in salary for the following reasons:
I do physical labor.
I work at great depths.
I plunge headfirst into everything I do.
I do not get weekends or public holidays off.
I work in a damp environment.
I work in a dark workplace that has poor ventilation.
I work in high temperatures.
My work exposes me to contagious diseases.
Sincerely,
P. Niss

The Response

Dear P. Niss:
After assessing your request, and considering the arguments you have raised , the administration rejects your request for the following reasons:
You do not work 8 hours straight.
You fall asleep after brief work periods.
You do not always follow the orders of the management team.
You do not stay in your designated area and are often seen visiting other locations.
You do not take initiative - you need to be pressured and stimulated in order to start working.
You leave the workplace rather messy at the end of your shift.
You don't always observe necessary safety regulations , such as wearing the correct protective clothing.
You will retire well before you are 65.
You are unable to work double shifts.
You sometimes leave your designated work area before you have completed the assigned task.
And if that were not all, you have been seen constantly entering and exiting the workplace carrying two suspicious-looking bags.
Sincerely,
V. Gina

How to stay Young

Me: "no ones talking to me, I can't quote anyone,
I decided instead to copy from someone."


[HOW TO STAY YOUNG

1. Try everything twice.
On one woman's tombstone she said she wanted this epitaph:
"Tried everything twice. Loved it both times!"

2. Keep only cheerful friends.
The grouches pull you down.
(Keep this in mind if you are one of those grouches!)


3. Keep learning:
Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever...
Never let the brain get idle. 'An idle mind is the devil's workshop.'
And the devil's name is Alzheimer's



4. Enjoy the simple things.
5. Laugh often, long and loud.
Laugh until you gasp for breath.
And if you have a friend who makes you laugh,
spend lots and lots of time with HIM/HER.


6. The tears happen:
Endure, grieve, and move on.
The only person who is with us our entire life, is ourselves.
LIVE while you are alive.


7. Surround yourself with what you love:
Whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever..
Your home is your refuge.
8. Cherish your health:
If it is good, preserve it.
If it is unstable, improve it.
If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.


9. Don't take guilt trips..
Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county,
to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is.
10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.
I love you, my special friend



11. Forgive now those who made you cry. You might not get a second
chance..

scammer spotted.

Someone: “My name is Paul _________, I’m from Norway and I’m a marine Engineer....”
Me: “ Yeah right.” Click the delete button and off you go to the bin. Watch this guy he is a gold member.

Scammers, have you encountered any of these scammers? In my experience all of them reveal a lot about themselves the first time, like their full name and their occupation. They are always marine engineer in my experience or they travel a lot. Observe the cut and paste on the emails. Observe the subtle discrepancies. In his profile he said he has black, long hair but in the photo he has brown short hair. Could he really be a scammer? But he is a gold member. Hmm I will do some homework and will let you know.
There was this high profile case in NZ where a former Maori official was lured by a scammer; they have been on line lovers if you may call it. When it was time to meet in person the supposedly European guy paid for her fare and everything but he requested to pick up some documents for him from another country on her way to London which she did. Poor woman so in love she was arrested at the airport because the supposed documents she picked up were drugs. Sharon Armstrong is the name of the Maori woman and was arrested in Buenos Aires because of the cocaine found in the suitcase that she came to pick up on her way to London.

We have a saying “walang manloloko kung walang magpapaloko”. I don’t agree on this one because the one who is “naloko” was the product of the “manloloko”, a victim. So it should say “walang maloloko kung walang manloloko” No one will say hey “halika nandito ako lokohin mo ako”. Translators wanted please, any volunteer?

Wiser? Me: Not everyone who reveals everything about themselves the first time are real and those who keep some anonymity are not always fake. You will get to know each other as time passes by. Keep you radars sharp. So what if he is a paying gold member, it is business just like the supposed European who spent thousands.
