well, well, well.. cheaters are all around the corner.. they victimize a lot of people specially those who are closest to them.. their very own partners! yes, indeed! both men and women cheats whether by choice or by chance. come on, we all flirt even sometimes, secretly . it's the nature of mankind.. a part of socialization and acquaintance. but sometimes, it becomes serious whenever we cross the line.. now what's that line? it is the limitation where we control ourselves to get intimately attached to the person that we were flirting to. common flirts are smiling to someone you just know, maybe in a bar or someone you dont even know, just because you find that person cute or attractive. like talking and having a conversation where both of you shares some personal information, like your name of course, your contact number, etc. it really starts with a flirt. before we get intimate to someone, or get attached to someone, it must start with a flirt.. just flirt. but when you find

i remember the hit song "stupid love" by salbacuta , a local rapper group who gazed every filipinos way back in 2002 with it's famous lyrics about a man loving a girl, who in the end fooled him, and made him a stupid guy for being so. stupid love? it really do exists.. maybe some of us are not aware that we belong to those, being in a stupid love, or loving in stupidity. but what is the real gauge for that? is stupidity in love is closely proportional to martyr lovers? or the ones they call loving blindly? is there really a measurement that can specifically and accurately distinguished a person whether he/she is already being stupid to love a certain person, or loving a person whom other's think he/she does'nt deserve? confusing, huh?! anyway, each and everyone of us has our own style and threshhold when it comes to loving. some would think that they are just accepting the person for who they are, but cannot be called stupid. for some, they already know the "

there are a lot of restaurants that serves italian dishes.. like don henricos and italiannis to name a few. one of them is the old spaghetti house , a proud local brand owned by a filipino couple who loves italian cuisine. one of its branch just opened at Paseo de Sta. Rosa, a commercial complex in sta. rosa laguna. one of the "hang-out" place of the residents within the wealthy area of Eton City, Belair, and Nuvali. we ordered 2 plates of pasta, garlic and shrimp in spaghetti noodles, and classic carbonara. both were served with a piece of toasted garlic bread. what i like about their menu is their pizza presentation. we ordered the spare ribs cheesy pizza, which has a mouth watering combination of mozzerella and quick melt cheese and the spare ribs meat on top. it has a very thin and crunchy crust, shaped ovally and sliced horizontally. the pizza is good for 2 to 3 persons so, it's not that big. the crust is like the local crunchy biscuits sold in markets that has no

Your December Horoscope by Susan Miller Capricorn Horoscope for December 2009 By Susan Miller At the very start of the month, you will be busy getting a project ready to ship out the door. The full moon December 2 will fall in your workaday sector, and team energy from co-workers and underlings will be high. You may not have to do all elements of the project yourself, and if you do have help, everyone will work together quite seamlessly. This full moon will be in Gemini, the sign of "two," so you may have two projects to finish up or two different clients to please. With Mercury, Gemini's ruler, in hard angle to Saturn, you may be working feverishly to get it all done by the deadline, which appears to be December 2, with a possible extension to Friday December 4, or possibly beyond that, to Sunday December 6, at the very latest.

i always do late reviews on movies that i have watched.. kinda lazy girl huh?! well, i just dont feel like creating a new post on my blog. ninja assasin features the korean star, rain. the one who portrayed the role of justin in a koreanovela entitled, "full house". i was impressed by the lean but muscular body of rain.. he really toned down his body in preparation for this movie. the movie was so graphical, most of the scenes were blood shedding and flesh cutting. great moves for the ninjas here! the cute love story of the main characters added some twists in this movie. the fight scenes were a combination of martial arts and black ninja powers, with all its fast moves that cannot be easily identify where it is coming from. a great action movie.. really bloody..

    it's a late review on the new moon movie, but i was there on its opening day in cinema to watch with my hubby. well, twilight has been a big hit here in the philippines. most of its audiences are the teenies, who giggles for the love story of edward and bela. personally, i find the 2nd installment of twilight, which is the new moon a little cute. but it's like just an extender of the life struggles of the main characters of the story. a lot of teens appreciated the concept of the whole story, because it's part of their genre. in terms of the intellectual side, it does'nt challenged me at all. the context was so plain, that just became a little more exciting because of the vampire and wolf thing added to it that makes it twisted. cinematography wise, it's cool.. but the phasing of the story was quite slow, and tame. anyways, this movie is still a hit to the young giggling teens who looks at the concept of love in a subtle way. and oviously, there's another in

this is from the blog entry of  Ruth Purple of  WOMEN'S HOME PAGE. i just like to share it with you.. Mistress - just the word itself imbibes negative impressions. Wives despise them and society looks down on them. Mistresses are associated with the word home wrecker with low morals. But if you really think about it, do they like being a mistress? Is that a choice they voluntarily choose or is it a written destiny? If there is such a thing as being "single-blessedness"- meaning people who are "blessed" or born to be single, is there such thing as "mistress-blessedness"? What kind of woman would chose to be a mistress in the first place? Being a mistress is never easy, so they say. You cannot demand and you constantly settling for stolen moments and attention. But since you are the other woman and everybody hates you, you might as well excel in what you do. And you'd better be good in keeping yourself anonymous or you will be forever obtaining the m

i have'nt had much time to create a review on the 2012 movie for the past few days, although i have managed to watch it on the big screen last friday, during its opening day. i was just busy with a lot of things.. but i think it's not too late to post a review, right? well, i personally liked the movie because i really enjoyed all the scenes especially the "running away from the disaster" scenes which i feel like i'm in a roller coaster ride. on its opening day, the movie house of waltermart calamba was jampacked, and oviously all of the cinemas showing the movie 2012. even the center aisle of the theatre was filled with extra monoblock chairs to accomodate the moviegoers who were very excited to see the movie. everybody were shouting and yelling as if they were having a roller coaster ride, just like me. even after the 1st day of showing, that was saturday, all the malls that we've been visited had a long qeue on their theatres. most of the malls were show

The film is inspired by the idea of a global [[2012 phenomenon|doomsday event]] coinciding with the end of the [[maya_calendar#long_Count|Mayan Long Count Calendar's]] current cycle on or around [[December 21]], [[2012]] (the northern hemisphere's [[winter solstice]]). Jackson Curtis ([[John Cusack]]) is a divorced father who occasionally works as a limousine driver and a writer, while his ex-wife Kate Curtis ([[Amanda Peet]]) and children Noah ([[Liam James]]) and Lily ([[Morgan Lily]]) live together with her new boyfriend, Gordon ([[Thomas McCarthy (actor)|Thomas McCarthy]]).

it's friday the 13th! there's a scary stigma on this particular date among the fanatics of the "black world". some says. that friday the 13th is a significant day for witches, vampires and other elements related to those. because this day, they acquire and attain their powers on its best, and they become so powerful. friday the 13th occurs when the thirteenth day of a month falls on Friday, which superstition holds to be a day of good or bad luck. In the gregorian calendar, this day occurs at least once, but at most three times a year. Any month's 13th day will fall on a Friday if the month starts on a Sunday. In this year 2009, this applies to the months of february, march, and november. and the next instance of this appears on the calendar for the year 2015. hmm.. quite a long wait! wahahaha.. really scary.. but for others, it's a time to have fun and enjoy as if it's haloween! and to spook around with friends to share their "not so ordinary scary

flavors of china, is one of the most promising chinese restaurant mostly found in malls, and other food places here. from the name itself, of course its main dishes are chinese foods. they have a big outlet branch in SM sta. rosa, and i find it intimidating, because they don't have many customers. because when we went there, it was lunch time and the place was not even half full. but still we had our lunch there, and ordered the honey glazed baby back ribs with wall nuts on top and sharksfin steamed dumpling as our viand. their appetizer is a bowl of chicharon, which reminds me of chicharap in chowking. what i love about what we ordered was the buko pandan sherbet, a refreshing buko shake with buko ice cream , in between a dose of pandan jelly. it was so creamy that became my consolation from the not so good taste of their honey glazed baby back ribs which i do not recommend to be eaten with rice . it was like, i was eating donut with my rice, which is not a good combinatio

i got this rare opportunity to dine at italianni's restaurant in nuvali, along tagaytay highway in sta. rosa laguna. it's a fine dine restaurant, that caters italian cuisine, a well-loved dish of filipinos. there were a lot of guests dining in, which i think mostly residents from villages nearby the place.   nuvali is a quiet and peaceful place to dine with friends and family, if you just want privacy and just enjoy the company of your group. italianni's has a very hospitable and friendly crew that will attend to your needs, a romantic table setting, and the food, are really mouth watering.   i fell in love with their stuffed mushroom. it is an oven roasted mushroom caps stuffed with sausage, fresh spinach, herbs and three italian cheeses in white sauce. it's very cheesy and appealing to look at. their seafood risotto, a platter combination of salmon, shrimp, calamari sauteed in white wine combined with arborio rice cooked in their homemade shrimp broth. their fruit sh

one of the most convenient public swimming pool resort in calamba is the riverview resort and conference center. it is has also function rooms for business meetings and also convertible to company conferences. during weekdays, it is more convenient to go here because it's as if you're just renting the place privately. they have slides for the kids and for the adults as well. and what i like about riverview is their big pools both for adults and kids. it's kiddie pool is about 3 feet high, and is safe for the kiddo's to play and enjoy the water. it's water is kinda cold, because it does'nt come from a hot spring just like in other resorts in pansol, laguna. location wise, riverview is more accessible than other resorts from the mt. makiling area.. when you just want to have fun and enjoy swimming with your family and friends, riverview would be a good choice..

have you ever thought about a woman who would like to be in a position of a filler to a man who has already a legal mistress? in short, a woman who would love to be an illegal mistress! there is such a thing.. and i just recently discovered that stupidity. let me first define the three characters mostly used in this post. legal miss - a mistress, legally acknowledge by the family, friends and relatives of the man to whom the woman has a relationship with illegal miss - a mistress, unknown to many, and has a secret relationship with a married man who has already a legal mistress. man - a complicated, still legally married man, now separated with his lawful wife. long ago, there was a girl who opted to get involve with a married man, who was actually living with his lawful wife during that time. their relationship became so serious, enough to have a child of their own. the fight within the wife and the mistress was so verbally hurtful to a certain extent, that some nasty things were done

why men cheats? do i have to specify the answers one by one? men cheats not because they are born polygamous. men cheats because they are insecure . exactly. and i am very sure about that answer. come on, guys! explain why.. most men feel secure if they have a lot of girls around them.. when i mean girls, it refers to girlfriends. they wanted to feel secure because they want to "belong", in a circle where they can brag about their charm on girls to their friends. it adds the machismo effect on their pride. and the result? a lot of innocent women gets hurt because of the men's "playfulness". men does not consider the fact that someone might be loving them wholeheartedly and sincerely but they would not notice it. men enters on multiple relationships with women because they just want to have a "spare tire" when the other girl splits up with them. they need a fall back.. hmm.. wise, isnt it? men cheats on women because they are afraid of rejection . when

along Paseo de Sta. Rosa, there is a new build community which is called "NUVALI". it is a high class village in Sta. Rosa, Laguna, which until now, marketing its way up to fill the area. across the nuvali village is a "hang-out" area, which is called SOLENAD, that has shopping centers and restaurants that caters mainly the residents within the vicinity of sta. rosa and their villagers. it's like a combination of a nature park and business center as well. what i like about nuvali is because of the peaceful and discreet ambiance within the place. there are a lot of commercial establishments, that anyone would'nt get bored from. it is also a nice place for work. the convergys, one of the biggest BPO's in the country today has build their another branch located here. the cold rush of wind from tagaytay made its way to be felt here which benefited the patrons of the place. try to visit this place and hang-out with your family.
