...a word of advice...
***Got this from a friend's site. It's so nice...and so true. Read on...
Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior.
Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache.
Stop trying to change yourselves for a relationship that's not meant to be.
Slower is better.

A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend. Don't settle.
If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is.

You'll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better.

Dating is fun...even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right.
Make him miss you sometimes...
when a man always knows 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.
Share this with other ladies..... You'll make someone smile,
another rethinks her choices, and another woman prepare.
They say it takes a minute to find a special person,
an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them
and an entire lifetime to forget them.

Now A Word From Kate =)
I don't know why, but my friends keep on visting my Friendster blog. One of my best friends, Kate, has posted this comment to my first blog entry (which, by the way, is also the first entry on this blog):
hey girl... how could you even say that you're unlovable?! That's so not true... I should know, you're my girl! hehehe...
Honey, I know the feeling. But I believe that there's someone out there who'd die to be in the place of your object'd'affeccione... :) he's probably thinking that you won't notice him dahil nga ka-diyosahan ka! hehe.. but look around, there are lots of people in this world just dying to be with you... and you, at this point in your life, you're just too lonely to notice... kaya keep smiling..
cos i believe there's someone out there hopelessly addicted to your smile..
Love you, friend. :)

Thank God for friends! =)

This one's from Jo =)
If you have read Jo's post in my tagboard, it says that she has posted her comments on my old blog. The comment was so mushy...I loved it! Haha. So for everyone's viewing "pleasure", here was what she posted in my old blog Hailie's Jaded in Friendster:
Awww, your posts bring out my mushy side.
i SO know the feeling :( ANg hirap. Especially when the guy you like prefers damsels in distress, or is intimidted by you...or, worst case scenario, he's gay.
Ang hirap when you look up to this person you want to be like, this person you find so interesting... and he looks down on you and doesn't think you're interesting enough to get to know better or something.
Anyway, share ko lang 'to... One of my favorite lines in While You Were Sleeping (Lucy talking to the guy in a coma; i love her acting at this particular scene, it's so...erm, honest?) goes like this: "Or have you ever, like, seen somebody and you knew that if only that person reeeeeaaaaaaally knew you, they would... Well, they would, of course, dump the perfect model that they were with and, and realize that you were the one that they wanted to just grow old with."
It's okay to cry at those movies you mentioned, ako nga e, I cried nga sa Ella Enchanted! Hahaha. Lalang, na-touch lang ako I guess. There was this song that I liked (from that movie). Maybe you're familiar with it.
Somebody to Love
sung by Anne Hathaway
Can anybody find be somebody to love?
Each morning I get up I die a little
Can't barely stand on my feet.
Take a look in the mirror
Lord, what you're doing to me.
I've spent all my years believing in you, but I just can't get no relief.
Won't somebody, somebody, can anybody find me, somebody to love.
Got no feel I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat
I'm okay I'm alright
It shows that there's no defeat
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
One day I'm gonna be free
Lord somebody
Somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love
(She works hard) Everyday
I try and I try and I try
But everybody wants to put me down
They say I'm going crazy
They say I got a lot of wonder in my brain
Got no common sense
I've got nobody left to believe
(Find her somebody to love x6)
(Can anybody find me)
Somebody To Love
(Find me somebody to love x5)
=================================
=================================
Aww...I'm so going into mushy mode right now. Sigh...

A Piece on John Cena
Little known fact about me (mostly because I don't look the part): I love watching WWE. And I've been bummed out this past month because I have not really been able to watch either RAW or Smackdown. And I have been missing my (future) boyfriend John Cena. Yeah, yeah, I've been following the action on WWE's online site, but action as seen on TV has a particular charm that action captured on paper can never acquire. Especially if you're talking about WWE action.
Having mentioned John Cena let us
all talk about him. As all entertainment wrestling fans know, John Cena bagged the WWE championship from John Bradshaw Leyfield (JBL) in the biggest WWE pay-per-view show Wrestlemania. Cena even proved that he's a worthy champion when he forced JBL to utter the words "I quit" in Smackdown's Judgment Day. He is doing so well in his career. And WWE fans everywhere are rejoicing in his success. Me included, of course. That's why when I knew that John Cena was being drafted to WWE's carrier program RAW, I became sad. It's not that RAW is an awful program; no, that's not it - actually, I love RAW. It's just that...
John Cena is one of the most popular wrestlers in WWE. And also one of the ablest. And his ability, in my opinion, is the main reason why he's doing so well in his chosen career. But as we all know, talent is not enough to uphold a "showbiz" career. Showbusiness (and let's admit it, WWE is showbiz) is a really rocky 'profession'. Today people love you, yet tomorrow they may hate you. It's okay if they hate you in a nice way (re: they just love the way you become so mean); but if they hate you in the sense that they don't EVER wanna see you again, then you're dead. In John Cena's case, he is popular today; but what about tomorrow? Being in Smackdown actually worked to John Cena's advantage. His stint on the show made him a big fish in a small pond. And we all know that it's really easy to shine in a small industry (small at least in comparison to the admittedly more popular RAW). And here's where my fears begin...what if the talented John Cena gets lost in RAW's sea of bigger (and possibly more popular) fishes? Sayang.
But tonight, as I was watching Cena's debut appearance in RAW, my fears were eased. In my concern for the Doctor of Thuganomics' budding career, I forgot one important aspect of Cena's character that contributed greatly to his popularity. John Cena is not just WWE Champion; he is a people's champion. All of the WWE belts Cena has acquired, he's offered to his fans. And this urged fans to form a group called the Chain Gang. And everywhere he went - yes, thankfully even in RAW - fans just chants his name. You can just feel the love.
And, thus, I think...there's no need for me to worry at all about Cena...he will do great (as always).

...mushy survey...
1. Do you believe in soulmates?
***Yes. Let me quote: "I've always believed in the reality of soulmates. Eversince a friend told me that men and women are angels with only one wing sent out to the world to find for teh other angel who will complete their wing and will allow them to fly to the heavens again, I got hooked on the idea. And that was way back when I was 12. Now that I'm 21, I still haven't let go.But think. Isn't it wonderful to know that somewhere out there, there exists someone who is 'perfect' enough to make you (almost) perpetually happy? I may not be too crazy about the concept that my soulmate will complete me, but I am crazy about the concept that my soulmate will make me feel as if I'm floating in high heavens. And if I have to stumble upon a couple of devils pretending to be my angel just to be able to achieve that feeling, I don't mind. At all."
2. Why is it hard to let go of someone you love?
***Because in loving that someone, you have allowed him/her to share your life. And you have allowed yourself to share his/her life. And just with anything and anyone who's been a part of your life, it is but natural to have a hard time letting go.
3. Why is it hard to hold on to the one you love?
***Because sad to say, even if it's so easy to decide who to love, it's not as easy to make your loved one love you back. We're all created with our own decisions...and the one we love makes his/her own decisions. We can't force them to hold on to us.
4. Why do men cry after a break-up?
***Emotions. Don't we all have that?!
5. Who will you choose: the man/or woman who is the center of your world or the man/woman who gave the world to you?
***Neither. I believe that there will come a time when it all will come together. I'll meet the guy who is the center of my world, and he will give the world to me.
6. Are you good at hiding ur emotions?
***Not really. Actually, hinting what I feel , for me, is the quickest way to solve any problem.
7. Why do we need to love?
***Because at the center of our being is the heart, whose main purpose is to love.
8. Being single or being taken?
***Being happy.
9. What's so nice in being single?
***Your time is your own. You don't have to worry much about commitment entanglements.
10. Why do you think people find it hard to tell the one they love that they love them?
***Speaking from a girl's perspective, no matter how much we say that we are currently living in a liberal world where it's okay for a girl to own up to her feelings, we still have standards. And it's still not okay for us girls to be the ones to reveal our feelings first. And even if it's okay, there's always the looming fear of rejection. And we all hate that feeling. So we'd rather keep our feelings to ourselves than be rejected.
11. Hardest thing a person can do?
***Hope when hope is no longer possible.
12. What do u think is the most painful thing the person you love can do?
***Give you a silent treatment for days/weeks. Para bang nanghuhula ka kung anong problema. Then suddenly he'd text or call you, "Bakit hinid mo ako pinapansin?" Huh!!!
13. How should people cope with a breakup/heartache?
***Eat chocolate while writing about the heartache. Then talk to the one true frind you have, God, then everything will be fine.
14. Describe love in one word?
***Bliss.
15. How do you spend a day with a love one?
***Talk as if there's no tomorrow. Laugh as if it's going to be the last day of our lives. And eat as if it's going to be our last meal.
16. Are you the type of person who expects too much from someone?
***I expect too much from a friend. But not from a lover. They always disappoint you when you expect too much.
17. Do you believe that love never dies?
***True love always remain in the heart.
18. Is it normal not to be jealous?
***No.
19. Do you believe in courtship?
***No. It's just a i lie. Guys tend to put up a front. And when you're in a relationship already, you suddenly realize that the guy you knew in courtship is very different from the guy you now know.
20. How about a long-distance relationship?
***Never works. We get to meet a lot of people and we can't help but be more attracted to the person immediately beside you.
21. Do you believe in a long engagement?
***Very much. I mean, marriage is such a big word. It's such a big decision. And if you rush into it, marami kang pagsisisihan.
22. You cannot appreciate the rose w/o accepting the thorns to love?
***I believe that. Not everything is perfect. And you have to take everything in stride - all the good, all the bad.
23.Why do you think it's hard for people to accept the past and move on?
***Because the past is part and parcel of who we are. And it's hard to forget about a piece of what completes us.
24. Why is it hard to put their trust back to love again?
***The bliss of loving was not enough to cover the bitterness of hurt.
25. Is love a choice or destiny?
***We choose to be with our destiny.
***Yes. Let me quote: "I've always believed in the reality of soulmates. Eversince a friend told me that men and women are angels with only one wing sent out to the world to find for teh other angel who will complete their wing and will allow them to fly to the heavens again, I got hooked on the idea.
