Angels Do Evolve

A day’s hard work or petiks mode at the office sure is stressful and being married deprives me of many things a bachelor can do. But at the end of the day, there’s nothing more beautiful than seeing my angels. Being married to a goddess, how could I possibly complain? I would never trade my family for the pleasures of this world that I cannot spend with them.

Perfume: The Story Of A Murderer

null

Grotesque in the sense that it is about the story of a murderer but it is also beautifully stunning at the same time. This movie is so brilliant that you’d watch it from beginning to end with such attention. Aside from its masterful storyline, the ending is one of a kind. You can try to guess but the chances of getting it right is of the tenths of a percent.

Based on the best selling novel Perfume by Patrick Suskind, Perfume: The Story Of A Murderer is a must see movie that will put you in awe. Set in the 18th century Paris, France, Jean-Baptiste Grenouille is the most remarkable being in existence yet history chose to forget about him. His genius would have given him everything he desired except he only desired one thing in his life and like all other geniuses we know, he would stop at nothing to get it.

Released by notable film distributors, DreamWorks Pictures (USA release), 20th Century Fox (Argentina release), and Buena Vista International (Italy release) and co-stared by the famous Dustin Hoffman, it made up to over $100 million worldwide.

This movie is truly magnificent and beyond imagination. As Roger Joseph Ebert (a Pulitzer Prize-winning American film critic and screenwriter) put it, “You may not savor it, but you will not stop watching it, in horror and fascination.”

 

The Pillars Of My Being

I don’t believe in marriage and I certainly don’t believe in love at first sight. It is because these things are only make-believe and merely ideas from ancient civilizations. But I believe in two people taking all odds headstrong without fail or threat of separation.

I am against abortion; it is the most sinful crime I could think of.

I approve premarital sex. You shouldn’t deprive the needs of your body because of religious and cultural conflicts or whatever the society you live in dictates. And besides, your body is God’s greatest gift and its main purpose is to experience all sorts of things. Utilize it in anyway you could.

I hate governments. They are the only legal syndicates in existence. They rob you upfront and still tax you to death.

I believe in eating honey everyday. It repairs your body from all the harm that you’ve caused it.

Fantasize about all the sinful deeds you can think of. Accomplish one or two to satisfy the appetite of your midlife crisis. When fear of loss sets in, you can celebrate because you’re cured. I am probably sure you’ll never try to do it again and see the world in an entirely different perspective.

Take the time to read but take more time to write your thoughts and stories so you do not lose your own style and identity. And more importantly, you leave a lasting impression to history in case you die famous. Who knows!

Your will is the most powerful force you can wield. Use it to your advantage from reaching the top of the world to gaining or losing weight.

Watch television while bonding with your family at home, it is one of life’s free education. For field training, travel by foot through the streets in all the cities you can visit.

“Cause and effect.” I don’t support terrorists but I certainly can’t blame them either. They are the products of governments. They are just the rest of us, only that they choose to fight for their idiotic ideals. They are just advertised as the villain by the media that is manipulated by the government. We are just collateral damage caught in the middle.

I believe in my grandmother. She rants dreadfully but she only tells the truth. And in each irritating word is furnished with wisdom.

I believe in conserving our drinking water, it is the largest percentage we’re made of.

I also hate religion. It is the only “legal” drug in the world and it is not for free. As a matter of fact, it is the most expensive drug you’ll ever want because it can cost you your soul. It is the most powerful thing that could stop us from dreaming on our own viewpoint. And it can easily bend our will from believing in fate to suicidal frustrations.

I look forward to death. It is the single event that holds the answers to half of the biggest questions I ever thought of.

Try anything once, possibly for a while. But before you get hooked, check for side effects.

I definitely believe in life long friends, their bonds are thicker than blood, like molten lead. These are the only people we can choose unlike our relatives.

Exercise for a healthy bloodstream. It is the only thing that can fuel your sexual drive.

I dream of an educated nation but I resent what education have become. They extort our sons and daughters from their innocence in such an early age and rob them from their childhood. No wonder it is a branch of the government.

At least own an e-mail account and a blog site. It is the best way to save trees.

I am the living proof of my parents, a walking signature of their genes, a spitting image from both sides, and a historical legacy of their existence. Whether we like it or not our natural talents, certain characteristics, mannerisms and intellect did not come from breast milk or formulated food supplements. The way I see it, love them for what they are and sometimes hate them for what they’ve done. But most of all learn from their mistakes and forgive them when they’ve become grandparents. Teach them a lesson or two when they get older but never lay a hand on them.

Masturbate even when you get older. It is the handiest stress reliever available and it’s free.

Above all else, I believe in the family I helped create. It is my greatest achievement and contribution to society. To my lifetime partner who has done the greatest job of keeping me by her side.

Lastly, never give up on dreaming. It means you still have control over your will.

Relationship Theory

I have this theory about finding oneself a partner. When I was in college, it occurred to me why do women in our country have this tradition of prolonging courtship. The more a Filipina prolongs the agony of an admirer, the more she is looked upon by society. I just thought that it is totally unfair, besides women in our country are strongly taking a stand of being equal to their male counterparts. That’s another argument to be fought on another day. 

I want to focus on the part where the Filipino male have to undertake enormous amounts of suffering before getting the chance to be in a relationship. This is in the previous generation of course and still holds true in the provinces with classic rural settings. 

I for one underwent such a phase in my life as a teenager. I later realized that things don’t have to be that way, where a girl plays hard-to-get. It just doesn’t make sense at all. 

First of all, no one would benefit from long courtships. It’s just plain crap. The obvious fact is you’re wasting each other’s time that should be spent in getting to know each other. Some of you might say that the courtship stage is the getting-to-know-each-other part but that’s just bull. As a male, I don’t agree that a man courting a woman would show his true colors. There’s just no way that’s going to happen. Even the sincerest guy would say so but I’d say that there is still a mystery within every man that needs hiding and that doesn’t show at all until he’s in the relationship itself. 

There’s always this instinctive defense mechanism that the Filipino male displays whenever courting a Filipina. That would be to show all the good side of him and be a gentleman in all possible ways. After the courtship, that wouldn’t be the case in a couple of months and its even luck if it would actually reach two months. 

An average Filipino male in his youth is packed with large amounts of raging hormones. And one way or the other, the goal is just to get laid with the hottest girls they can find. Not much different from other nations, that being the obvious. 

Now let’s proceed to my theory. In my own perspective, if I get it right and convince you, you’d probably get the girl of your dreams, as for the Filipina, you’d get a wide selection to pick from and most importantly avoid getting heartbroken. 

My theory is as simple as this, if a Filipina likes a guy, she should get into a relationship with him as soon as the opportunity presents itself. In this way, she is not yet in love with the guy and the moment she finds out a characteristic that is below her standards, she can easily get out of the relationship just as easy as she got into it. No one would get hurt as far as being in love is concerned. Egos might be trampled upon and confidence declined but it’s just a normal process in our daily lives. My theory is like trial and error only that we are doing it in a shorter amount of time. Like physics experiments, the faster you perform an experiment the more chances of getting a smaller margin of error. Of course, you have to be as accurate as possible in the process. In real life, accuracy is not escalating your feelings before the curtains fall and discovering the face behind the mask. You should know the boundaries between lust and love at all times. 

To clear up things, let’s put it in a simpler way; taste but don’t swallow. If you don’t like it, spit it out just as fast as you licked it. But if the taste suits you, do not swallow still. Yet, toy with it in your mouth and try to savor it. Manipulate with your tongue and set your taste buds free from all other flavors. Once you’ve decided that you want to go for more, that’s the only time you can swallow. However, like all other types of food comes with a warning, eat at your own risk. 

By means of tasting and spitting, you get a better chance of hitting the food you like rather than filling up your plate with delightful dishes that are only fitting for the eyes. When your palate is full then that’s the only time you can tell that you’re in love. 

As for the Filipino male, explain this wisely and you’ll have a girlfriend in no time. Then it is entirely up to you.
