Yin Yang

"I don't have any sleeping problem. I have no worries, no fears, no nothing. Just myself. But when I met a couple this morning, laughing together, holding their hands tightly and looking through each other's eyes...It's harder for me to sleep now. Maybe they're right. I thought I'm better off alone. Maybe it would be nicer to spend your time with someone that you love. Someone means something to you. Maybe I'll try it, not for now. But soon. Soon enough when I find someone to share my life with."

A very long text message that I got from my friend Maricel dated December 8, 2006. Yup, I saved it. Because that's what I felt that time. I am independent when it comes to relationships. I don't depend too much on the guy to do stuff for me. I don't nag. I don't argue as much as possible. I live my own person even if I'm in a relationship. I let the other person be himself, be with his friends and do stuff on his own. That's why breaking up doesn't make any difference because I can manage and I am okay even if I'm alone. That's what I want to believe that's why it always seems that I am at the brink of happiness even if I'm crushing inside. I don't know how I do it but I can control the pain and I can stop myself from hurting.

I speak for those people who are now in that stage where you think and feel that you're better off alone and yet, at the back of their minds, they think that it wouldn't hurt to be with someone, it wouldn't hurt to fall and get hurt at times, it wouldn't hurt when someone argues with you. Bottomline is, you have someone you can call your own.

People often say that you don't need anyone to complete you because you should be complete, on your own, just by yourself. You just have to find that person who will complement you. If you're Yin, find your Yang. If you're a cup, you should have your saucer. Things that complement work together. Things that are suppose to be together, will always be together. A spoon is best used with a fork and a car cannot run without gas.

But good things really never last because there are better things for you. Sometimes, no matter how hard you try to make things work. It just never does. Everything just falls apart. You will realize that a cup and a spoon can still function without the saucer and fork. Or when the car runs out of gas, you can still walk. This is my mantra. I don't rely too much on love so that I can get on with my life.

And yet, during all these times that I shut love out of my life, someone came knocking in. I ignored this unexpected visitor for so many times but he kept on knocking. Seeing this person right through my door was such a welcome surprise. Now, I found the saucer, the fork and the gas to run my car. Taking things one day at a time...enjoying every minute that passes.

I am still my own person. Still independent. Staying cool with everything.

There's a difference though.


I think I found my Yang. =)

Transformers

My first time to write about a movie I have seen. Which makes me think, maybe I am soooo impressed to write about it since I rarely give time to jot down stuff i love or hate in a movie.

To start off, what makes this movie more interesting for me is the fact that I work for eBay. Why?? Because the movie itself circles around the fact that they are looking for this eBay member "ladiesman217" played by Shia LeBeouf as Sam Witwicky, who is a highschool student who tried to sell the family's heirloom on eBay. The plot will be set in motion when Sam discovers his grandfather's pair of century-old glasses, improbably laser-etched with a map and information about the location of a key artifact, the "Energon" cube, which he then tries to sell on eBay. Man, I'm gonna look for this item once I get back to work and check if there's really an existing "ladiesman217" user ID and the auction for the eyeglasses as well. There was one scene when Sam asked Optimus Prime about why does he know him and their family's heirloom, Optimus Prime just said, "eBay".

Peter Cullen reprised his role as Optimus Prime and Hugo Weaving for Megatron. The movie is action-packed, effects were uberrrrr purrrfeeecttt! You can hear when a steel bangs another steel during transformer fight scenes. It's big and boomy. The movie's soundtrack is cool and awesome! It also has a lot of good humor in it that I find myself laughing loudly with the audience. Megan Fox is so hot! (my lesbian hormones are now activated). That's the sexual content of the movie when everytime the camera focuses on her bod and there was a scene when there was loud noise from Sam's room and his parents banged the door while being asked if he was masturbating.

One hilarious scene was when Captain Lennox was calling for an emergency but he had to go through this Indian operator who seems to be insensitive of the urgency of the call and the indian kept on asking Lennox to speak clearly and loudly over the mouthpiece and even asked him if he wants to avail their Premium Plus full service call package. LOL

There are lots of notable scenes and quotes in this movie.

Quotes:

Sam to Mikaela: "You're more than meets the eye".

Sam 'Spike' Witwicky: "t's a robot. You know, like a super advanced robot. It's probably Japanese"

Bobby Bolivia: " driver don't pick the cars. Mmm-mm. Cars pick the driver"

When suggested that humans are not worth fighting for, Optimus Prime said "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings".

One best thing about watching it was that I was with someone who is also a true-blue 80s baby and a number one Transformers fan as well. =) I'll watch it again! DAMN! hihihihi
