You dangle a chick in front of most guys, and they just drop everything and everyone else. Whether it's called CBF (chicks before friends) or Ho's before bro's, almost everyone is susceptible to it. Even one's truest friends. It's not an understandable phenomenon to me, simply because i think friends should be ranked at an equal level with chicks, or possibly aant even higher one. don't be a fucking dick and drop your friends just because may babae na pumasok sa buhay mo. Tawag kasi doon, is bas-fucking-tos. Jesus H. christ, why is it so fucking difficult for people to pull themselves away from the allure of pussy? And to anyone getting defensive, or offended at this point, tangina offended ka kasi kasali ka sa mga malilibog na loko loko.

Nicolas Cage whips out a beat up old tape palyer, and depresses the play button.. in comes "WAR" with the song lowrider.

Rivaling him is unheard of, and Trumping him is impossible. (perhaps we should call it Veidting someone instead of Trumping) Still, there may be those among us who persist in their delusions of Veidtness. (greatness, Veidtness, get it?) Take the "Veidt and see" test to prove yourself! You know you're Adrian Veidt if you've:<br><br>1.

The warm room was blurrily reflected on its moisture-ring stained surface, and my fascination with the knots and burrs ingrained in the table strangely enough, grew with each passing moment. I can't quite recall what she looked like either. I can't tell you if she had light or dark hair, or if she even had hair. I don't remember if she was younger or older than I am, or was. I don't even know any of this happened at all, but I do remember she was there. I was there. I remember a small rustic coffee shop in Intramuros shared by two people and a heavily moustached brewer. My hand remembers the feeling of a small and pleasantly warm hand shyly making its way into my own sweaty one. I remember laughing and smiling with but one regret, a secret fear that I dared not allow into my conscious mind at the time.

It was 230am this morning when I somehow got dragged into watching the Spain vs Italy match in 'Howzat' sports bar. I came along for the game casue I figured, "nothing doing tomorrow, and it's free so it's no skin of my back.. why not?" I walked in with Ayo,Ige, and Bryan in tow, predictable crowd seeing as we'd just come from playing a game of DotA. Inside we saw Gino, Jovie and Gab perched on decidedly uncomfortable bar stool/high chair hybrid seats. We took no time at all in joining them, and I think we must have looked like large birds perched on a very precariously positioned wire. After a bit of light conversation regarding this topic or that, the game began and we were immediately mesmerized by the 44-nich flatscreen samsung TV.

It's a good read, but in truth, a little long winded. Not to say that Descarte should have written it any other way, because perhaps if he wrote it in any other words except those he used, the world might not have understood the genius that was Descarte. And while I would love to regale everyone with a brief summary of "the discourse", there is no brief summary that does it justice, so I won't even attempt to paraphrase Descarte. As a matter of fact, any attempt of mine to paraphrase his work with the intention of lecturing would be presumptous and smug. Instead, I'll 'make kwento' one of the methods of getting ones point across that Descarte, to me, seems to have mastered.</p> <p>He opens with his explanation of how he believes that all men are created equa... http://faelestrada.multiply.com/journal/item/145/The_Descarte_method_of_lecturing.

If you think of any songs about regret, I'd really love it if you could post it so that I can add it to this&nbsp;list.</p> <p>1. Switchfoot - this is your life &gt; The best regret song i think. His punctuating cry of "don't close your eyes" really captures how&nbsp;I tend to not look at, or see&nbsp;myself because of the shame that it brings me.

Stuck in a Moment - U2 &gt; The perfect song for all the layabouts who feel like they never moved into the next stage of life. Admittedly, I am one of them. It's really depressing though, how painfully bono seems to demand that you "get yourself together". A good song, for college dropouts, and remorseful jackasses the world over.</p> <p>3.

I've always dreamed of being a man worth being. Someone with something to say in this life, worth saying. And yes, i know that everyone is special, and yes i acknowledge that everyone in his own right is great, but i'm not talking about supermarket psychology here. I don't want to be special in my own special way, i want to be the veritable 'shit'. I want to be remembered by the world as a giant among men. But looking at all the great men, I see a common factor between them all that i completely and utterly lack. Purpose. Gandhi, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr., Jose Rizal, they all had purpose. Something that drove them to surpass their limitations and become the revered figures of modern day legend. So when is my purpose going to come for me? Will it come in the form of adversity?
