The Greatest Thing

"The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love, and be loved in return." -Moulin Rouge One of my favorite movies is Moulin Rouge. Partly because of the line above. Yes, to love and be loved is the greatest thing one can experience. It is hard to love. It is a daunting thing to accept, understand, nurture, to love a person. It is difficult to choose to be with another person, to make that life a part of who you are, even if you don't have to. Much harder, I think, is to be loved in return. We choose to love. That choice is in our hands. But to be loved in return, that is not something we choose. It it something that the other person chooses for us. To be loved in return is one of the best things one can experience. But no matter how hard you love, how badly you want it to happen, how much you work for it, being loved in return... Is not something you can easily get. That is exactly why it is such a great thing, the best thing to love and be loved in return. Being in the business of…

This is How I Love

Alternate Title: The Way I Play DotA and Poker is Also The Way I Love Subtitle: P*TANG INA! SATC and Grey's Anatomy Marathons are EEEVIL! I'm a pretty aggressive person who does and say things when and how I want to do and say it. I curse more than the average person, and I go out and do things that my relatives aren't proud of. In fact, they cringe at most of the things I do. One recent conversation with my relatives pointed to me as having inherited most, if not all, of the bad habits of my aunts and uncle: academic underachievement, drinking, gambling, and more. I'm a bad girl, I know. But when it comes to love, I am no bad girl and no aggressor. I love the way I play DotA. As a DotA player, I play support most of the time. I take care of my teammates and make sure they look and perform well. And by golly, I am the same way in most relationships. I'm a nurturer. I take care of people. (SHUDDAP!) I make sure they eat on time, do things the right way, and do the things they have to accomplish. I…

Wanted: BOYFRIEND Part 2

Last year, out of boredom and a bit of desperation, I launched a Wanted: Boyfriend campaign which was a super FAIL. Anyhow... This year, I'm launching a similar campaign for my friend Junelle... Junelle is my age, 26 years old and a single mom of two. She is an only child who now works as the manager of a small team of web developers, graphic artists, web masters, and SEO practitioners. She is also a blogger, and online almost 24 hours a day. Junelle is looking for a fair-skinned guy who is at least 5'7 tall, FAT (yeahaaa!), and older than her (>27) who has a pleasing personality and is a loving boyfriend, and NOT A PLAYBOY! She also wants a guy who is already a professional. So if you are the guy Junelle is looking for, or you know somebody who will fit the bill, please reply in this blog entry, or write a blog entry about you (or whoever the potential bf is) and link back to this entry. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?! Let's moves those asses and find Junelle a boyfriend.

Top Lopez Shares Another Strategy

Before Top Lopez (of Team ChiLL and DC Clan) gave this kick-ass piece of dating advice, he gave the broken-hearted boys this tip: Win her over with a Puzzle Buy a 1,200 piece puzzle. This puzzle should be a puzzle of her favorite scenery or her favorite cartoon character. Build the puzzle. Ask your cousins, friends, and other people to help you complete the puzzle. Take out one of the pieces in the center of the puzzle. Frame the puzzle. Make sure the the frame can be dismantled without destroying the completed puzzle. Wrap the puzzle nicely.. Put the remaining piece in an envelope with a note saying this: Every piece of the puzzle is a piece of my life. This piece represents you. It is up to you to complete my life, or not. Give the puzzle and the note to the girl. HUZZAH! What's more romantic that emotional blackmail y'all?! LOL! PS To my future/potential boylets, bfs, papables, please do not even dare do this to or for me. KTHNXBAI!

A Letter to My Ex

Dear You, There's so many things running through my mind right now. One of which that I'm trying so hard to suppress is how much I hate you and would very much like to inflict pain on you. Kidding... sorta. We both know that I left the relationship because I couldn't give you something you needed for our relationship to work. Truth is, I have already given so much to you and to our relationship, that I felt like I was losing myself. But when you asked I change my belief to accommodate yours, I realized, there was really nothing there left in me that is truly me and mine. Through our almost seven months together, I have changed so much. It was probably out of the desperation, the need to be with somebody, to be loved, and to be part of something. At that point, I didn't know who I was anymore. I wasn't willing to change any more than I already had. So I made the choice to let go. But we didn't really let go, did we? We broke up, but we were there for each other. Or at least I was there for you. Through all…
