woohoo! two posts in one day. i'm on a roll here!
due to a cup of coffee, free wifi access, an uncured case of insomnia and a couple of stupid ideas running through my head, i have unearthed another stupid theory of life that has been sleeping inside my brain for a couple of years already. it all started with a simple phrase that popped up and never left my mind, "sometimes you just have to cry."
no, i wasn't trying to be melodramatic or dramatic at all. it just happened to pass by my brain before going to lala land or whatever land thoughts go to after they expire. being the bored techie that i am, i googled the phrase-that-never-left-my-mind and found a pdf about some humorist's speech. it gave further proof about my wave theory of life.
the wave theory of life declares that:
in life, one must experience happiness in the same intensity and length as sadness.
corollary: intensity and length of time are inversely proportional to one another.
you cannot be happy for an extremely long time and you cannot be sad for an extremely long time too.. you know why? extreme laughter and depression can cause death. if you experience sadness for a long time, it's not as intensified as you experienced it briefly. we are all human, we become numb to emotions after some time.
i do not mean we have to remain stoic and boring all the time to evade sadness, but isn't a roller coaster of emotions what makes us human? we feel, ergo we're human. the wave practicality of life justifies the existence of drugs and anti-depressants, we want to experience everything even through synthetic unnatural ways.
corollary: threshold values for happiness and sadness is unique for every person. happiness threshold value may not be equal to sadness threshold value.
it's like your alcohol limit, we all have our own capacities. some people can take in too much pain (martyrs), some people can't (suicidals) but we all have the ability to withstand sadness like how we have the ability to enjoy happiness.
it's a simple yin yang. a balance of some sort. we live. we laugh. we cry. it's what makes us human after all.

life and everything else
after a routine stalking exercise, i found another blog stash of an old crush of mine that talked about theories, philosophies and all the big words that would shame marx. anyway, i've decided to write about something philosophical myself: life and everything else.
for me life boils down to simplest of things, #1 happiness of self and #2 happiness of others. i'm no gandhi or buddha but i do think that we're here to have fun, be happy and enjoy life as it is. although if you meet me in real life, i'm really no happy go lucky person but i like being happy. i spend hours and hours in doing the things that make me happy and that is reading books, listening to music, eating and sleeping. since classes has been postponed, i've been locked up inside my room doing the aforementioned four things repeatedly. of course, there's the occasional bathroom emergencies and social interactions to meet my quota. hahaha.
happiness of others may be as limited to happiness of other half, if you're lucky enough to have one. i, myself don't have anyone to share this dreary life with aside from the book and music collection stored in my PC. but you see, happiness of others can also translate to happiness of friends, family or any other social entity. this can be in a form more popularly known as "quality time" or simply QT, as my sister always termed it.
so, my philosophy in life? we're all here (on earth) to live, laugh, love, learn and ultimately be happy. we may need to work hard for happiness sometimes (study to get 1.0s, earn to eat great food, work asses off to get promoted) but these happy moments make life worth living (take it from a suicidal). so.. last words? live. love. be happy. because you deserve it. :D

happiness
hmm.. since i have been neglecting this little blog corner of mine, i shall write today. and because i am H-A-P-P-Y... i decided to write the top five things that make me sooooo happy.
5. good grades
4. great manga (shoujo or josei)
3. funny anime (aka soul eater)
2. perfect music (happy happy music!)
1. peace. silence. tranquility.
if i were to paint my perfect image of happiness, it would be something like: me, curled up in a sofa with a great book while amazing music (not noisy music) plays in the background while the temperature is almost below freezing temp with a mug of hot coffee.. hai... all five senses satisfied! yeah!

inumin
dahil birthday ni kuya joma, at umuwi ang ate ko... binigyan nila ng surprise party si kuya - complete with unlimited bar na nagbibigay ng free flowing drinks. sayang nga lang at hindi ko yun party kaya hindi ko nadala sina tina at kert... sure akong matutuwa sila dun. anyway. dahil psycho ang ate ko, heto ang ilan sa mga pinatikim niya sa akin.. in hopes na malasing ako.. (hmm, lasing na ba ako?)
1. FLAMING SHOT.. di ko talaga alam ang exact name nung drink basta mukha siyang blue liquid above red liquid at sinisindihan ang blue flame kapag sineserve sa iyo. unlike other shots na iniinom nang straight, etong flaming shot e ginagamitan ng istraw.. kasi nga naman may apoy. matindi tindi ang after effect nito. hindi lang after taste na lasang tempra, may after effect pa na burning sensation sa esophagus. antindi.
2. COOL BREEZE (cocktail) masarap, mapait, lasang cherry at served with real cherry din. enjoy it iced. stir well before drinking. served in a tall glass, kaya mejo marami. pero masarap naman, lasang cherry na may mapait na aftertaste din, parang cough syrup. hehe. mukhang appletini sa simula pero nagiging pinkish pag stinir mo yung red liquid sa bottom ng glass.
3. APPLETINI, martini ata na may apple flavor... honestly di ko feel ang apple dito. may cherry din siya. clear yellow liquid nga pala siya, mukhang sobrang diluted na beer.at ang tindi ng kapaitan nito, grabeh. medyo dineretso ko na lang tong inumin para di ko mafeel yung pait.
4. SCREWDRIVER. blue shot. hmm.. lasang tempra din. minus the sweet aftertaste. mapait din kasi siya. amoy tempra. cool blue color. eto, iniinom ng straight. okay naman, medyo short lang nga, parang kulang siya kapag iniinom. hehe.
5. SCREW ME. na honestly di ko makita at madistinguish ang difference sa screw driver. mas matindi daw sabi nila kuya, pero never ko naman nafeel ang difference. anyway, in all ways, para sa akin pareho lang sa screwdriver.. refer to 4.
6. GREEN cocktail thing.. sinerve ng bartender, di ko nalaman kung anong name. sabi ko kasi kahit ano na lang. kaya yun. di ako natuwa dito kasi lasang hilaw na orange. sobrang walang other flavor. pait lang. weird talaga. pero cute yung color. hehe
7. ICED TEA? chaser ko the whole night. nakasampung baso ata ako ng iced tea or more, maliit din naman kasi yung baso nila ng iced tea.
other drinks na di ko natry kasi di nila ako binigyan.. hehe. joke lang. malamang may iba akong iniinom nung time na yun.
8. KAMIKAZE.. may cocktail version at shot version dun. eto ata yung yellowish stuff na iniinom nila.. never kong natikman kasi laging may iniinom pa akong iba na pinapainom ng ate ko. kaya yun.
9. VODKA SEVEN. in clear transparent version and blue version. sabi nila yung clear version vodka & 7up lang tapos yung blue version may isa pang halo. di ko din natry kasi puro guys sa table lang namin yung binigyan.
10. MELON thing. light green na cute ang kulay. may cherry din. lasang bubblegum daw, matamis at cool. may sugar crystals sa rim nung glass, di ko gets bakit.
anyway.. sobrang wasted na yung ate ko kanina, di niya na nga ako nakilala e. hehe. lasing na kaya ako? naku wag naman sana may exam pa ko mamya. hehe. :D anyway. happy birthday kuya.

new year's resolution
dahil isa sa mga usong listahan ay ang new year's resolution, sino ba naman ako para lumihis sa tradisyon? kaya heto ang aking natatanging new year's resolution. lima lang para naman medyo realistic.. haha. pagkatapos ko tong ipost, malamang makakalimutan ko din to. hahahhaa.
5. hinding hinding hindi na ako malelate sa klase ko. kahit pa nakakatamad. kahit malamig ang simoy ng hangin. kahit ayoko sa prof. kahit alam ko namang hindi papasok ng maaga ang prof ko. kahit puro excuses ang sinisigaw ng utak ko. kahit lalakarin ko pa ang klase ko. kahit na... kahit pa.. hinding hindi na ako malelate.
4. magsasave na ako. kahit masarap gumastos at kumain. gusto kong magipon at makabili ng something... uhm. ewan. kahit ano. para lang me pinagipunan daw ako. marami naman akong trip bilhin e. kaya magsasave daw ako.
3. magaaral na ako. hindi na ako magcracram. lam ko namang medyo imposible yun. pero no harm in trying di ba.. so magaaral na ako ng maaga para hindi na ako magcram. kasi aim high pinay! ahhaa. adik.
2. matutulog ng maaga kung wala namang dahilan para magpuyat. di na ako magmamarathon ng series kung may exam ako the next day, di na ako magbabasa ng nakakaadik na ebook kung may 8.30am class ako the next day. matutulog na ako. matutulog na talaga ako.. sisimulan ko pagschool night na. hahaha..
1. HINDI NA AKO MAGIGING TAMAD. kunwari, di na ako magdedelay ng dapat gawin. di na ako matutulog ng extra five minutes. babangon na ako kaagad sa umaga. maliligo agad kapag time ko na sa shower stall. kapag walang ginagawang productive, gagawin ko na ang pwedeng gawin na productive.. pero sa school night na ako magsisimula. hahahhaa.
so ayun. sana lang magawa ko talga mga to.. kasi malamang sa malamang... wala rin akong mararating sa mga to. but its never too late to dream.. hehehhee.

pain.
simula nung dumating ako dito sa gensan. nagkasakit na ako. sakit sa maraming parte ng katawan ko at kung anu-ano pa. hindi ko nga alam kung bakit ako pinaparusahan ng ganito e. mabait naman akong bata.. di ba? hehe.. anyway. eto ang rundown ng mga sakit ko.
SIPON.. o allergic rhinitis o sinusitis - hindi ko talaga alam kung anong meron ako basta ang sure ako, hindi siya nawawala sa kahit anong gamot na inumin ko.. and believe me. marami na akong nainom.
UBO - mas effective ang robitussin kesa sa solmux. hindi dahil mas gusto ko ang rasberry flavor over strawberry flavor kundi dahil mas effective lang talaga. ang robitussin gentle ang approach, and solmux harsh kung harsh, tataktak niya muna baga mo, pipigain ang plema bago ka gagaling.
STIFF NECK - katangahan ko naman to, nakatulog kasi ako sa sofa sa sala kaya yun, next day para akong sinuntok sa magkabilang sides ng leeg ko, ang sakit lumingon sa left at right kakairita talaga
TOOTH ACHE - in fairness, mild lang naman. pero nafefeel ko pa rin e. uminom na nga ako ng mefanamic acid pero nafeefeel ko pa rin. hai.
DYSMENORRHEA - kasi meron ako. period.
EAR ACHE - nung landing na ang eroplano, grabeh parang may tumutusok sa kaloob-looban ng tenga ko, parang ewan. parang nakakamatay. grabeh talga. buwisit na buwisit nga ako nun kasi sa airline na yun lang talaga ako may problema, bobo kasi magpaland at magtakeoff. lecheness.
kaya hayun ang pasko ko.. punong puno ng sakit. hai. as of now, 6 na klase ng gamot na ang nainom ko at ang nawala pa lang ay ang ear ache kasi nawawala naman yun in due time pati na rin ang stiff neck. tooth ache, mejo di ko na feel. hai.. sana mawala na tong ubo ko. yoko talaga ng ubo e. anyways. MERRY CHRISTMAS! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
