> The elections are coming up, and my newly turned 18 friends are staring to ask if i got my voting license yet. and i keep saying no. over and over and over again. they ask, "why not?" i say, "why? i'm not going to vote." and they say it isn't good to be so apathetic.
am i apathetic? maybe i am. i don't know anything about politics. i don't know who i should vote, nor do i want to vote. i don't want to vote because i don't know anything about these candidates. all i know is that they lie. they all lie. and i don't want to vote for people who lie to me.
my friends tell me im judgemental. maybe i am. how do i know they all lie? of course i don't. i don't even know them. but they're politicians, and that's enough for me. i see what's happening in UP, and here i see an embodiment of what is happening in the country. i see these students, students i see and laugh with everyday, cheat their way to the top. dito pala nagsisimula. estudyante pa lang, natututo ng magdagdag-bawas. how i am supposed to believe in people when right here in miniland, i see these things happening.
they lie. they all lie. i don't trust them. i won't vote them.

Why A Lot of Women Think Men Are Pigs > it was dark. it was late. it was a secluded place. a lone girl rides a jeep she thinks would take her home soon. but it was only a moment later when the driver turns around. "honey, it's late. you're the only one in the jeep. how about if you get off here and we'll get a trike for you so i can go home?"
the driver hails a tricycle. girl gets in. her ride home goes on.
or so she thinks.
a minute later the tricycle stops. a man gets in, not behind the driver like men do, but inside the cab, beside the girl. the girl looks at the man. the man grabs the girl by the wrist. what happens next is anyone's guess.
afterward, the girl is seen running, running for dear life, towards wherever there is people. the girl, forever traumatized yet wanting her life to go on normally no matter what happens, keeps mum about it so that soon, there will be nothing left to remind her of what happened.
at least, until the bluish black mark on her wrist fades away.

> Dito sa dilim
Ligtas ako
Di kailangang makasalimuha
Ang buong mundo
Di kailangang masaktan
Di kailangang magdusa
Ligtas ako
Ligtas dito.
Ngunit ligtas man sa dilim
Hindi ibig sabihin
Na masaya ako
Dito sa dilim.

> fell in love with a prince out of your reach? not a problem. a little magical intervention and you just might get your happily ever after. that is, if you can make your prince fall in love with you when you can't talk. oh, and you have to do this within three days. tough luck.
when i first watched this movie, back when i was a child, i didn't realize what a bad bargain that was. three days to make a guy fall in love with you and kiss you, and if you can't you turn into a worm. i'd have appreciated the deal in the original Little Mermaid much more. at least she had forever. at least until mr. prince falls in love and marries another, after which she would turn into sea foam.
maybe it's because i come from a conservative background. maybe it's because here in the Philippines, one does not just go out with a person and suddenly becomes girlfriend-boyfriend. maybe because i've seen a lot of guys go out of their way to court a girl for a couple of months only to get rejected. these things take time. making someone fall in love with you, let alone making them tell you, takes much, much longer than three days.
believe me, i know. after all, i've been trying for seven years.

> she was a fat 5 year old. all the adults said she was really cute. all
the kids called her names, mostly PIG. poor kid, she wanted so much to
be accepted. so she devised a diet, and drastically lost weight. her
parents never noticed.
she is 17 years old. she says she's too thin, yet sometimes
she wonders if her waist is getting too big. she knows she has to eat
three times a day, but sometimes she only eats once. she can never seem
to find the appetite to eat. she is steadily losing weight. and nobody
notices.

> Nautilus Housejust when you think you've seen everything, someone comes up with something no one has seen before--and then lives in it! i'd love to live in a house like this. the windows are small enough to allow privacy, and i'd feel just like Dyesebel, living in a shell. the whole house, though it looks like a movie set, is complete with a bathroom, a bedroom, the works, so people can actually live in it. i wonder who lives there, and if he's willing to sell his house.

> i love you enough to waste my time doing nothing with you.
i love you enough to risk my own health to look after yours.
i love you enough to trust you with everything that i am.
but not with everything i am going to be.
because i am 18, and the sky is blue.
the air is fresh, and my grass is as green as it can be.
i am 18, and my horizons are as broad as i can imagine.
i am 18, and right now, the world is mine for the picking, and my future is mine to mold. this girl who plans to win over a male-dominated field is not about to give herself away to a man. not yet.
i am 18, and i am a modern woman. i can stand up without you, and i intend to. but this doesn't make me love you any less.

> i check my Friendster horoscope everyday, and it's oddly thought-provoking today.
"Have you lost your idealism?" it asks. "People are essentially good--remember that."
well, newborns are. maybe toddlers are too. and some kids can be good. a couple of teenagers. a few adults. see the trend?
maybe the years spent living degenerate a persons goodness. maybe it's the law of entropy: everything is headed towards destruction. maybe it's the people. maybe it's the world. maybe it's poverty, corruption, yadda yadda, whatever you want to blame it on. but i think it's all simply because humanity is imperfect, and maybe, just maybe, we all have this innate attraction to everything wrong.
Friendster is asking for us to have faith in humanity. this isn't enough. i say we should actively shape the world into a better place. this is what real idealism is about.
