Never Gonna Give You Up


Oh my goodness! Rick Astley is coming to town!!!!!

It's like have a last song syndrome with a playlist! Seriously, when I saw an item on the newspaper that Rick Astley is coming over for a one-night show, I started to hear the big voice crooning (complete with the dance steps, of course!) "it would take a strong, strong man to ever let you," "never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna run around and desert you," "together forever and never to pass, together forever with you, and don't you know i would move heaven and earth to be together forever with you."

Oh wow! Those were the days when I didn't have any worries except for having good grades that would make momma proud....

One Big Tupperware Party

Whenever I hear somebody say, "I don't hide what I feel, if I like you, you'll know, and if I don't, it'll show, I always go, "Yeah, right!" in my mind.

Oh puh-leeze, spare me the dramatics! Tell me one person who never mask his or her emotions, just one person.

Everybody hides what they feel one way or the other, once even twice in their lifetime. Why? For various reasons, I guess... Still, what I'm trying to say is that don't ever give me the crap that you don't pretend to be happy when you're not, to enjoy talking to a person when you're not and the like.

Admit or not, we all live in one big tupperware party. We live as it is to survive....

Calm before the Storm?

Looking back at today's events, everything went smoothly. It was a generally peaceful day. There was no, ehem, excitement. All's well that ends well. But, somehow, something doesn't quite fit right. I feel a certain fear. I fear that I might be too complacent not to smell what's coming.... Am I over-reacting? I don't know. But what's too good to be true scares me more that what's obviously out there....

A Moment That's Over..... for now

To use the word "relief" to describe my feeling right is an understatement. I have nothing but appreciation for surviving that feeling of helplessness. I'm not saying that I can do everything now... I still can't and I seriously doubt if I ever will. But, for now, I'm enjoying this sense of having overcome something that's wreaking havoc on my peace of mind.

My lesson learned on this incident is to stay awake and be constantly aware on what's happening around me. Hopefully, I can do this with a smile...

Transformer

A well-meaning co-worker told me about one of my negative trait, I transform when into one of my moods...... I really appreciate her for telling me these because admittedly, my E.Q. quotient is way below the standard.

I don't want to justify my "transformation" by saying nobody's perfect. But, sometimes, I do feel that people can be so incredibly unfair. I guess, that's life. It's easier to critique other people's weaknesses instead of acknowleding your own.

Going back to my "transforming" talent, I really try to control my temper. I think that stress of trying to remain logical has been giving me a lot of headaches lately. Anyway, I am well aware that I should try to do something about this. It's not good to be giving into irrational moods because those will lead to irrational notions that will ultimately result to irrational decisions. At this stage of my life right now, I don't have the luxury anymore of making foolish mistakes. I need to prove to my critics that I am worth more than my special ability. By the way, I can also morph!

A Moment

Okay, I'm having one of those moments when I feel so helpless.... I'm not exactly sure but the feeling that I have done something that is so wrong is almost tangible.... It's like having some wriggly stuff playing around your conscience that you can't stop thinking the what have beens, what could have beens whenever and whatever....

I really hope that everything will work out fine... I don't think my heart can take the "excitement" anymore.....

It's easier to be NOT nice

Oh yes, it's definitely easier to be not nice.... You don't have to take into consideration other people's feelings to your actions. You just go on with your merry ways and who cares what those people think of you. You only have to answer to yourself and that's it.

One thing I learned after my almost (oh yes!) forty years of existence is, it's a LOT easier to be NOT NICE..... I had so many experiences of instead of being appreciated for what you have done for the greater good, all I got were jeers and resentments. Oh yes, I have even been cursed for actually helping. GOODNESS! What should a girl do?

Cruciatus Curse

I never for one moment thought it would come to this... I'm an avid fan ever since I first laid my hands on the first Harry Potter book... It was like I was greedy (actually, I AM!) child who just couldn't get enough that I had to read it over and over and over and over......

But the last book, I was like, OMG!!!!

I never had an excruciating migraine attack like this since I studied (or should I say, crammed) for my macro-economics finals for my masters degree (which i never finished by the way and that's probably why! hehehe)... It was like having your head slowly being split into two by an electric saw and your brains cells were incredibly swollen and throbbing like percussions being thumped by crazed rock musicians....

To answer one of my friend's question, no, the book is NOT bad at all.. In fact, I never regret having to go through the pain (hahahaha)... It's just that you have to imbibe all the information amassed from all the six books (and then some) AND THAT'S TOO MUCH FOR MY PUNY MIND TO HANDLE! hehehehe

There were a lot of instances in the book when Harry suddenly had moments of enlightenment, as in, everything just fell into place and the clouds of confusion were lifted.... Errrr....... I don't believe I had any moment like that when I was trying to attempt to read the book the first time.... Come to think of it, I still didn't have them when I read the book the second time. I had to read the book thrice before I began to get glimpses of those moments... and I must stress that what I had were GLIMPSES. In order to have a clear view of the entire picture will have to take (A LOT OF) time.....HAHAHAHAHA

I had so many questions when I started to reading the book and was hoping to find the answers... Now, I still have a lot of questions and I think I need to risk more headaches and read it again and again.... hehehehehe
