She's the person I thought who'd support me but instead, she told me it was a stupid decision.<br> All day, all I've done is research, research, research for my future business.

You can say I'm old-fashioned but I don't think that it's a good message to all teenagers. Now, teenagers are making pregnancy pacts, like bringing up babies together is as fun as taking care of pets. Can anyone confirm if this is right??<br> <img src="http://data5.blog.de/media/452/2651452_7b40978132_s.jpeg" alt="ok-jamie-baby" vspace="5" hspace="5"> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://waitaminute.blog.co.uk/2008/07/11/not-ok-4432462/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:waitaminute.blog.co.uk,2008-07-03:/2008/07/03/grrr-grrr-4398697/jadedsecret2008-07-03T16:53:45+02:002008-07-03T16:53:45+02:00 <p> One thing I can't really stand in this whole world is people being two-faced.<br> Call it anything else.<br> Plastic.<br> Fake.<br> Medusa.<br> You know those types of people whom you thought you are so cool with and it turns out that they can't stand you because of the shallowest thing?? I mean, why can't they just say it straight to your face how much they want to get rid of you and get it over with instead of prolonging the agony?? </p> <p> You thought that everything was evenly settled but for some odd reason, that person you know has been a Plastic all along and doesn't even have the guts to say what his problem is to your face?? It's just pitiful. Those types of people don't know yet how to deal with their own problems so they're resorting to this, "Im-fine-outside-but-inside-you-are-the-most-disgusting-person-i-know."</p> <p>It just pisses me off!! Seriously!!<br> I can forgive people who have the decency to tell me what things I'm doing wrong or things that I haven't done, but I will breathe fire at anyone who'll let the resentment grow and form it into a bomb against me when i have no friggin' idea... it's just not right, especially when someone is innocent!!</p> <p>And C., if you're reading this, you know what I mean, you closet gay. Why can't you just admit you're gay (my gaydar has never failed me) and that you're making us move out coz u can't accomodate your friggin' "boyfriends" properly when we're in your space?

It's one of those momentous days when I spot a book I happen to be looking for and it's on sale.</p> <p>And I spotted the classic, "Little Women".

They're criticizing manufacturers of school notebooks about the cover designs of their products: local celebrities. I do agree that it's all in bad taste and does not promote anything other than their worthless soap operas and try-hard sitcoms. <img src="/img/smilies/icon_wth.gif" alt="|-|" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p> One of the department people said that they should put pictures of our national heroes instead. I'm all for that, especially since I'm quite proud with the history of the Philippines, and I think a slice of the past should be enough for the schoolchildren to take their education seriously.</p> <p> One of the actors in the cover of the school notebooks was interviewed. And I'd love to rip his guts out and feed his pretty-boy head to the lions along with the other idiots in the industry because he claims that he thinks that national heroes should be on the cover...but if he was more "influential", why can't he be on the cover???<img src="/img/smilies/graydead.gif" alt="XX(" class="middle" border="0"> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://waitaminute.blog.co.uk/2008/06/07/national-heroes-vs-celebrities-4285267/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:waitaminute.blog.co.uk,2008-05-29:/2008/05/29/barefoot-cinderella-4241212/jadedsecret2008-05-29T07:53:30+02:002008-05-29T07:53:30+02:00 <p> I found this article online that had given me a beacon of hope in my life. It made me realize that being a Cinderella without the glass slipper is perfectly alright. I admit, that when my best friend looks dressed to kill on a Friday night, I look less than hot and more than subtle. Gimme some credit, I do bare some skin. I'm flat-chested, I only brush my hair when I spot my comb somewhere in the condo, I don't go to the dermatologist , there are times I'm too lazy to wax my legs and I don't use foundation with my make-up because I feel like I'm laying cake on my skin. </p> <p> I have my best features, though I won't say which. I'm quite proud of them, including my flaws. Compared to my best friend who can afford to shop in the trendiest boutiques, I just rummage in my mom's closet and steal some pieces from my sister, and voila! I have my skills, my outspoken and frank behavior, and my values.</p> <p> Thank you, Walter Kirn, for writing this realistic and eye-opening article, for all those Barefoot Cinderellas out there.</p> <p><a href="http://www.elle.com/featurefullstory/13908/walter-kirn-on-relationships-june-2008-elle.html"></p> <p></a> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://waitaminute.blog.co.uk/2008/05/29/barefoot-cinderella-4241212/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:waitaminute.blog.co.uk,2008-05-28:/2008/05/28/shut-up-miley-4238156/jadedsecret2008-05-28T14:04:59+02:002008-05-28T14:04:59+02:00 <p> <img src="http://s105.photobucket.com/albums/m219/pageh9318/?action=view&current=miley02.jpg" alt="Give her a break." title="Stop apologizing."></p> <p> Scandalous. It started with that lacy bra, followed by other suggestive photos that are a hundred times magnified and contemplated by the media and the public. It's only right that she apologizes about those photos, but when she begged for forgiveness once more when her Vanity Fair photo came out, I am this close to pulling my scalp out of my head. How could her photos have "leaked" in the net? If she was an 18-year-old posing for Vanity Fair instead of a 15-year-old, would it cause a bigger speculation? </p> <p> All I want Miley Cyrus to do is to stop saying sorry when there isn't a need to. This is a part and partial problem when you're a teen growing up in the set of Disney: you are expected to keep a squeaky-clean, family sub-urbs, pink and innocent image. And when you're a teen with the infamous hormones and torn between being a kid and an adult, you're sure you cannot please everyone.</p> <p>And for the record, I think her Vanity Fair picture is beautiful and sophisticated and shows her demure side. </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://waitaminute.blog.co.uk/2008/05/28/shut-up-miley-4238156/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:waitaminute.blog.co.uk,2008-05-28:/2008/05/28/no-lungs-4237680/jadedsecret2008-05-28T11:37:55+02:002008-05-28T11:37:55+02:00 <p> Yesterday, I had a chest x-ray as part of my requirement before I officially transfer to another university.

I do believe in equality, but I also believe that men should have the right to show their gentlemanly side. Some women do get offended when men try to show their chivalrous side; they point out how sexist it is.<img src="/img/smilies/icon_crazy.gif" alt=":crazy:" class="middle" border="0"><br> Please. Some women try to live up so much to the equality issue that they forget how women were treated more than equals in the past. They now misinterpret a gentleman's gestures as undermining their equalness instead of thinking that it's a simple gesture of thoughtfulness. This is a world of irony- we sigh how chivalry is dying among men, and then scream sexist, chauvinist pig at the poor guy who opens the door for us. </p> <p> Maybe I'm just a tragic traditionalist caught in a radical's mindset, but hey, given the fact that women have started to dominate the workplace, women technically run the economy because they're the major decisionmakers of the household, the guys are beginning to appreciate personal grooming and their are also house-bound daddies. Give the guys a break.<img src="/img/smilies/grayyes.gif" alt=":yes:" class="middle" border="0"> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://waitaminute.blog.co.uk/2008/05/26/fifty-percent-feminist-4224069/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:waitaminute.blog.co.uk,2008-05-23:/2008/05/23/don-t-die-chivalry-4210313/jadedsecret2008-05-23T07:13:50+02:002008-05-23T07:13:50+02:00 <p> The other day I was taking the train on my way to another city. I was quite tired commuting all the way to the train station, and the inevitable fact that I'd be one of the people standing, hanging on for dear life, with other people crowding around you, isn't something to look forward to.<img src="/img/smilies/icon_confused.gif" alt=":-/" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p> So imagine my pleasure when a gentleman gave me his seat. That very much brightened the rest of my day.<img src="/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif" alt=":p" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p> Well, I'm not saying that all men should give up their seats to every woman in the train or wherever, but the fact that the man did that simple act of chivalry is just breathtakingly refreshing. These days, when you go on a date, you split the bill. Not everyone's willing to give up their seat in the bus, even when there's an old lady standing with a bag of groceries. Only a considerate few open doors ladies. </p> <p> I dunno, call me old-fashioned or whatever. But I think it's a big, big bonus when a guy sincerely practices chivalry.<img src="/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":>>" class="middle" border="0"> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://waitaminute.blog.co.uk/2008/05/23/don-t-die-chivalry-4210313/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:waitaminute.blog.co.uk,2008-05-22:/2008/05/22/things-you-need-to-know-4206638/jadedsecret2008-05-22T10:31:53+02:002008-05-22T10:31:53+02:00 <p> My sister groaned the fact that she doesn't read the newspaper, or watch the news.

And sometimes, I'd like to think that he's mine, muhahahaha. We're COOKin'!!<br> 3.<u> Rice Shortage in the Philippines</u><br> - it does not friggin' exist. I ate in an italian resto that was taking advantage of it that had a sign on the door that said, "Save Rice, Eat Spaghetti."<br> 4.<u>The Questionable Electric Billing in the Nation</u><br> - for heaven's sakes, it's killing us that oil prices have skyrocketed, what's with the electric billing that is ridiculously sapping the nation, poor as it is already? The government officials certainly have something to do with it, whatever other people say.</p> <p> And so far, a super typhoon had hit my hometown and I'm not exactly thrilled to go back to a place with no electricity.

This country has a shortage that doesn't exist. Bastards. I live in a province where during road trips to the city, I'd never fail to see the the same hectares and hectares and hectares of rice fields that still look the same today.</p> <p>Second, Pres. George Bush is suddenly into green solutions for global warming and stuff, when in fact, he opposed such movements for the sake of "homeland security" and even told former opponent Al Gore that he'll put every American out of work for his obsession with global laughing. Too bad. Now he's being pressured by public opinion.</p> <p>Third, I don't believe that Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny don't exist.</p> <p> Hmm.

My partner and I we're going crazy after having a cup of coffee and a bag of marshmallows while discussing how to present our topic.<br> I'm hoping to get an "A" for that subject. my friends have also presented for the midterms and they all did a good job as well. We celebrated by having some sweet stuff from Dairy Queen. Midterms are over! We're anticipating the finals but now it's all about chilling. Hahahaha.... I'm doing better overall in this second term. Hopefully, at least. </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://waitaminute.blog.co.uk/2007/10/25/finally~3193555/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:waitaminute.blog.co.uk,2007-10-24:/2007/10/24/goin_nuts~3189997/jadedsecret2007-10-24T21:00:57+02:002007-10-24T21:00:57+02:00 <p>It's 4.05 in the morning. I'm over at a friend's house so we could both prepare for our midterms presentation for business speaking and we were done with it an hour ago. Can't sleep coz we both had a cup of coffee. In 5 hours, we have a long quiz in College Algebra. Damn.<br> Yesterday, my professor who has a business had me design his company logo. After giving him a rough draft, he asked me how much he should pay me. I wasn't used to that kind of thing so he suggested that he'll give me a gift- an extremely advanced Christmas gift- instead. He asked me what I needed. I mused it over for awhile then he suddenly joked, "don't ask for a boyfriend coz it's really difficult to buy one!"<br> Harharhar.<br> Damn right. </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://waitaminute.blog.co.uk/2007/10/24/goin_nuts~3189997/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:waitaminute.blog.co.uk,2007-10-23:/2007/10/23/he_s_on_my_mind~3181770/jadedsecret2007-10-23T11:54:34+02:002007-10-23T11:54:34+02:00 <p><strong>It's kinda strange how the most unlikely person would suddenly complete your day by just talking to you about the most normal things. Hmm. I don't know why. But it just sort of happened. He's the guy I only see around school once in awhile. I only know him by his name but I never really know what he does or how he's doing in school. He's been a classmate a few times but I never really paid any attention to him.<br> So this afternoon, I got ready for PE class (I loathe PE class, but I had to), and I didn't even do much for it. As long as our teacher sees us hovering around, he'll take our attendance. </p> <p> When our time in PE class was over, our teacher took attendance and that guy suddenly showed up in a business attire because of a midterm presentation he had to do. He asked our teacher if he could be excused for missing his class coz of the friggin' presentation. Our teacher considered and that was it. </p> <p> I decided to leave school and drop by a friend's place. I was walking by the school atrium and I spotted him. I passed him but he suddenly grabbed my attention by saying, "don't we have the same PE class?"<br> I told him yeah. He was kinda amused that I wasn't playing any sports and I still pass that class. Harharhar. Oh yeah. He was also my classmate in my Physical Fitness class in the first term. I told him that I had a good physical effort in the first term, but I decided to take a break from all that by choosing the PE class that sounded more like a yoga class. He's really friendly.<br> After a few laughs, we both parted. And until now, that conversation's still on my mind. Maybe because I'm delighted that someone I barely know talked to me like I'm a close friend or something. I mean, that doesn't happen everyday. </strong> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://waitaminute.blog.co.uk/2007/10/23/he_s_on_my_mind~3181770/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:waitaminute.blog.co.uk,2007-10-15:/2007/10/15/just_nervous_and_procrastinating~3138887/jadedsecret2007-10-15T12:18:02+02:002007-10-15T12:18:02+02:00 <p><strong> Aaaargh!! <img src="/img/smilies/grayupset.gif" alt=":##" class="middle" border="0">I've got oral exams for Sociology tomorrow!!

Then my eyes fell on the kitchen scissors. So away I snipped some strands for an hour and now I've got bangs!<br> The next day, everyone nearly didn't recognize me. They'd all go bug-eyed and see that I wasn't a new student after all! They all liked it and said that it suits me quite well. I had a few good laughs that day. It's refreshing what a new hairstyle could do. <img src="/img/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" class="middle" border="0"></strong> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://waitaminute.blog.co.uk/2007/10/14/good_luck_to_me~3134025/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:waitaminute.blog.co.uk,2007-10-10:/2007/10/10/funny_d~3113642/jadedsecret2007-10-10T13:14:37+02:002007-10-10T13:14:37+02:00 <p> Yesterday, I was hanging out with an upperclass guy, a good friend of my bro.

Midterm exams coming up next week. I'm practically nerve-wrecked right now. I got orals for sociology and a presentation for Business Speaking class. Hmm... I wonder if my scholarship will survive until next term.<br> Tomorrow, we're gonna face our terror of a college math teacher. All of us shake in her midst, especially when she starts screaming at a poor student who can't give a good justification for his equation. But she's really, really nice outside the classroom. Kinda like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.<br> School aside, I'm still disturbed by the fact that the Department of Education here in the Philippines is getting quite sneaky with how they use their budget for establishing schools in extremely low priority areas in the country and how they fail to go within the guidelines of education system. It is questionable how they use their budget when they fail to provide financial records. It's enough that there are so many schools that depend on textbooks written by bigger idiots and classrooms that don't shelter them from the elements or induce interest in knowledge.<br> The reason why the country's progress is at a snail's pace is because of our lax and lenient education departments. If we do not prioritize the educational needs of our community, how do we expect our country to make good citizens to contribute to the country's health?</p> <p></strong> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://waitaminute.blog.co.uk/2007/10/10/midterms_and_corruption~3113577/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>
