pag minalas ka nga naman...

i remember having this insanely malas day last year when i attempted to watch a movie alone for the first time and i found out when i was at the mall already that i left my wallet at the office. alone at the mall, no wallet, no atm, and no credit card. it was raining pa. malas.

well, ive had the same string of misfortune this past week.

1. ash wednesday - long story short, i fell down the stairs of the building and sprained my right ankle. im still cane-ridden. pero minsan pasaway i dont use it and opt to limp around na lang... bad girl.

2. yesterday's incident 1 - pilay na nga right foot ko, my left sandal broke pa here at the office. how the heck was i supposed to move around??? buti na lang sheila had slippers here sa office.

3. yesterday's incident 2 - i was fuming mad at this person and was having a less than fabulous afternoon (post sandal malfunction) and it was my first time to commute going home since i sprained my ankle. so as i was walking to valero to catch the shuttle there (in sheila's slippers), i sms-ed the dispatcher to let him know im on my way and if he could wait for me. his reply literally brought me to tears: "walang sasakyan dito". fart. as in bad trip talaga. i thought id have to stand in line sa SM for a long time since thats the only place else na may shuttle pauwi. hay. buti na lang mahaba lang daw pila and i caught the last van on my way home.

AY GRABE TALAGA. pag kinan*toot* ka nga naman ng malas! if things come in three's.. i hope my list ends there. tama na please. quota na ako.

is someone trying to tell me to slow down? hmmmm....

Advice from Oprah About Men

Girls, we should really learn a thing or two (or more) from this... OUCH!

* If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay.
* Stop making excuses for a man and his behaviour.
* Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache.
* Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship that's not meant to be.
* Slower is better.
* Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy.
* If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve then heck no, you can't "be friends".
* A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend.
* Don't settle. If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is.
* Don't stay because you think "it will get better." You'll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better.
* The only person you can control in a relationship is you.
* Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women. He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant, why would he treat you any differently?
* Always have your own set of friends separate from his.
* Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you.
* If something bothers you, speak up.
* Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you later.
* You cannot change a man's behaviour. Change comes from within.
* Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are... even if he has more education or in a better job.
* Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man, nothing more nothing less.
* Never let a man define who you are.
* Never borrow someone else's man. If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you.
* A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you.
* All men are NOT dogs.
* You should not be the one doing all the bending... compromise is two way street.
* You need time to heal between relationships...
* There is nothing cute about baggage... deal with your issues before pursuing a new relationship.
* You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you... a relationship consists of two WHOLE individuals... look for someone complimentary... not supplementary.
* Dating is fun... even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right.
* Make him miss you sometimes... when a man always know where you are, and you're always readily available to him – he takes it for granted.
* Never move into his mother's house.
* Never co-sign for a man.
* Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you need.
* Keep him in your radar but get to know others.
