guy rules

The Guys' Rules
At last a guy has taken the time to write this all down Finally, the guys' side of the story.
(I must admit, it's pretty good.)
We always hear
"the rules"
From the female side.
Now here are the rules from the male side.
These are our rules!
Please note.. these are all numbered "1"
ON PURPOSE!

1. Men ARE not mind readers.

1. Learn to work the toilet seat.
You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down.
We need it up, you need it down.
You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.

1. Sunday sports. It's like the full moon
or the changing of the tides.
Let it be.

1. Shopping is NOT a sport.
And no, we are never going to think of it that way.

1. Crying is blackmail.

1. Ask for what you want.
Let us be clear on this one:
Subtle hints do not work!
Strong hints do not work!
Obvious hints do not work!
Just say it!

1. Yes and No are
perfectly Acceptable answers to almost every question.

1. Come to us with a problem
only If you want help solving it. That's what we do.
Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.

1. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a
problem. See a doctor.

1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument.
In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 Days.

1. If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls,
don't Expect us to act like soap opera guys.

1. If you think you're fat, you probably are.
Don't ask us.

1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the
other one .

1. You can either ask us to do something
Or tell us how you want it done.
Not both.
If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.

1. Whenever possible, Please say whatever you have to say during commercials.

1. Christopher Columbus did
NOT need directions and neither do we.

1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings.
Peach, for example, is a fruit, not! A color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have
no idea what mauve is.

1. If it itches, it
will Be scratched.
We do that.

1. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," We will act like nothing's wrong.
We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.

1. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, Expect an answer you don't want to hear.

1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear Is fine...Really.

or
golf.

1. You have too many shoes.

1. I am in shape.
Round IS a shape!

1. Thank you for reading this.
Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight;


But did you know men really don't mind that? It's like camping.

Pass this to as many men as you can -
to give them a laugh.

Pass this to as many women as you can -

to give them a bigger laugh    

Isang kwentong may kurot sa puso

I LOVE this story

Somewhere in Milaor, Camarines Sur, there lived a fourth grader boy who
would follow this route to school everyday: He has to cross the rugged
plains and cross the dangerous highway where vehicles are recklessly
driving to and from.

Once past this highway, the boy would take a short cut, passing by the
Church every morning just to say Hi to God, and faithfully say
his, "Magandang umaga po" in Bicol dialect. He was faithfully being
watched by a Priest who was happy to find innocence so uplifting in the
morning,

"Kamusta, Andoy? Papasok ka na?"

"Opo padre ... "he would flash his innocent grin, the priest would be
touched. He was so concerned that one day he talked to Andoy.

"From school...", he advised "Do not cross the highway, you can
pass through the Church and I can accompany you to the other side of the
road...that way I can see that you are home safe...."

"Thank you father ...
 "   <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>


"Why don't you go home ... 
 why do you stay in
this church right after school?"

"I just want to say
 'Hi'  to my friend, God,"   and the priest
would leave the boy to spend time beside the altar,
talking to himself, but the priest was hiding behind the altar to listen
to what this boy has to say to his heavenly FATHER.

"You know my math exam was pretty bad today, but I did not cheat although
my seatmate is bullying me for notes... I ate one cracker and drank my
water, Itay had a bad season and all I can eat is this cracker.

Thank you for this! I saw a poor kitten who was hungry and I know how he
feels so I gave my last cracker to him ... funny but I am not that hungry.
Look, this is my last pair of slippers ...I may have to walk barefoot next
week, you see this is about to be broken... but it is okay....at least I am
still going to school.... Some say we will have a hard season this month,
some of my classmates have already stopped going to school .... please help
them get to school again, please God?

...Oh, you know, Inay hit me again, it is painful, but I know this pain
will pass away, at least I still have a mother.... God, you want to see my
bruises? I know you can heal them.... Here... here and .... oh ...blood
...I guess you knew about this one huh? Please don't be mad at Inay, she
is
just tired and she worries for the food in our table and my schooling that
is why she hits us....Oh, I think I am in love ... there's this pretty girl
in my class, her
name is Anita ... do you think she will like me? Anyway, at least I know
you will always like me, I don't have to be anybody just to please you, you
are
my very best friend! Hey your birthday is two days from now!!! Aren't you
excited? I am! Wait till you see, I have a gift for you ..... but it is a
surprise! I hope you will like it! Oooops, I have to go ..." then he stood
up and calls out, "Padre, padre, I am finished talking to my friend ....
youcan accompany me to the other side of the road now"

This routine happens everyday. Andoy never fails. Father Agaton shares this
every Sunday to the people in his church because he has not seen a very
pure faith and trust in God, a very positive look at negative situations.

One Christmas day, Father Agaton was sick so he could not make it in the
Church, he was sent to the hospital. The Church was left to 4 manangs who
would chant the rosary in 1000 miles per hour, would not smile and would
always find fault in what you do, they were also very well versed in cursing
if you irritate them! They were kneeling, saying their kilometric rosary
when Andoy, coming from his Christmas party,playfully dashed in.

"Hello God! I ......"

"P----!! (a curse) bata ka!! Alam mo nang may nagdadasal!! Alis!!"

Poor Andoy was so terrified, "Where's Father Agaton? He is supposed to
help me cross the street ... and to be able to cross the street I will
have
to pass by the back door of this church ...not only that, I have to greet
Jesus. It is His birthday, I have a gift right here....
" Just as he was about to get the gift out of his shirt, the manang pulled
his shirt and threw him out of the church. "Susmaryosep!!! (does the sign
of the cross fervently) Alis kang bata ka, kung hindi matatamaan ka!!!

So the boy had no choice but to cross the dangerous side of the road in
front of the church. He crossed. A fast moving bus came in.

There was a blind curve. The boy was protecting his gift inside his
shirt,
so he was not looking. There was so little time. Andoy died on the spot. A
lot of people crowded the poor boy, the body of a lifeless young boy ...

Suddenly, out of nowhere a tall man in a pure white shirt and pants, a
face so mild and gentle, but with eyes full of tears... He came and carried
the boy in His arms. He was crying. Curious bystanders nudged the man in
white, and asked,

"Excuse me sir, are you related to this child?

Do you know this child?"

The man in white, His face mourning and in agony, looked up and
answered,

"He was my best friend .... " was all he said. He took the badly
wrapped gift in the bloody chest of the lifeless boy, and placed it near
His heart.

He stood up and carried the boy away and they both disappeared in sight.

The crowd was curious ...

On Christmas Eve, Father Agaton learned of the shocking news. He visited
the house, and wanted to verify about the man in white. He consulted the
parents of Andoy.

"How didyou know that your son died?"

"A man in white brought him here." sobbed the mother. "What did
he say?"
The father answered, "He did not say anything. He was mourning. We do not
know him and yet he was very lonely about our son's death, as if he knew
our
son very well. But there was something peaceful and unexplainable about him.
He
gave me my son, and then he smiled peacefully. He brushed my son's hair
away from his face and kissed him on his forehead, then he whispered
something..."

"What did he say?"

"He said to my boy..." the father began, "Thank you for the gift
... I will see you soon ... you will be with me..." and the father
of the boy continued, "and you know for a while, it felt so

wonderful ... I cried, but I do not know why....all I know is I
cried tears of joy .... I could not explain it, Father, but when
that man left, something peaceful came over me, I felt a deep sense

of love inside ... I could not explain the joy in my heart, I knew
my boy is in heaven now but...tell me, Father, who is this man that my son
talks to everyday in your church, you should know because you are always
there ... except at the time of his death ......"Father Agaton suddenly
felt the tears welling in his eyes, with

trembling knees, he murmurred, " ... He was talking to no one .....
but .. GOD...."

If you love this story, please. pass this on to your friends.

I just did!

Stroke Recognition

A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he

can totally reverse the effects of a stroke...totally. He said the trick

was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed and getting to the patient

within 3 hours which is tough.

 

RECOGNIZING A STROKE - A true story

Susie is recouping at an incredible pace for someone with a massive stroke

all because Sherry saw Susie stumble - - that is the key that isn't

mentioned below -and then she asked Susie the 3 questions. So simple - -

this literally saved Susie's life - - Some angel sent it to Suzie's friend

and the questions did just what they were supposed to do. Suzie failed all

three so 9-1-1 was called.

Even though she had normal blood pressure readings and did not appear to be

a stroke as she could converse to some extent with the Paramedics they took

her to the hospital right away. Thank God for the sense to remember the "3"

steps.

Read and Learn!

Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately,

the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer brain

damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke.

Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple

questions:

1. *Ask the individual to SMILE.

2. *Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS.

3. *Ask the person to SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently) (ie. It is

sunny out today.)

If he or she has trouble with any of these tasks, call 9-1-1 immediately

and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.

After discovering that a group of non-medical volunteers could identify

facial weakness, arm weakness and speech problems, researchers urged the

general public to learn the three questions. They presented their

conclusions at the American Stroke Association's annual meeting last

February. Widespread use of this test could result in pompt diagnosis and

treatment of the stroke and prevent brain damage.

A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this e-mail sends it to 10 people,

you can bet that at least one life will be saved.

JOY IN THE JOURNEY

JOY IN THE JOURNEY

If you have ever been discouraged because of failure, please read on.

Far often, achieving what you set out to do is not the important thing. Let me explain.

Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. As they were working, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch.

"What are you doing?" asked one of the visitors.

"We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!" one of the brothers volunteered excitedly.

The older boys began to laugh, telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible.

After a long silence, one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders, worms and a wide assortment of insects. He removed the lid and showed the wonderful contents to the scoffing visitors.

Then he said quietly and confidently, "Even if we don't dig all the way through the earth, look what we found along the way!"

Their goal was far too ambitious, but it did cause them to dig. And that is what a goal is for - to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen; in other words, to set us to digging!

But not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end successfully. Not every relationship will endure. Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last. Not every endeavor will be completed. Not every dream will be realized.

But when you fall short of your aim, perhaps you can say, "Yes, but look at what I found along the way! Look at the wonderful things which have come into my life because I tried to do something!"

My Prayer for You

This morning when the Lord opened  a window to Heaven, He saw me, and He asked: "My child, what is your  greatest wish for today?" I responded: "Lord please, take care of the  person who is reading this message, their family and their special  friends. They deserve it and I love them very much" The love of God is  like the ocean, you can see it's beginning, but not its end. This  message works on the day you receiveit. Let us see if it is  true.  

ANGELS EXIST, but some times, since they don't all have wings, we call them FRIENDS. Pass this on to your friends. Something good will happen to you at 11:11 in the evening; something that you have been
waiting to hear.

I can never do it

I can never do it


How does the circus trainer train an elephant? When the elephant was small they would tie it with a small rope about 5 feet long and attach the other end to a small stake, fixed to the ground. The elephant would try to move but is unable to do so because it is still small and does not have the strength. It will keep on trying and trying but on some stage it will no longer try. Years later, when the elephant is fully grown it will not try to escape because it thinks it's useless to try. He has failed many times before. You see, the elephant has the strength to move big logs and with just one slight movement it could free itself, yet it has been conditioned not to try.


Success Principle:


The elephant has been conditioned not to try anymore. It sees failure as a result of past experience. The future is not equal to the past. You may have failed many times before, but today is a new day and everything is possible if you just have the courage to try once more. Learn from the past and move into the future with confidence. The past is gone and you have already paid for the consequences. You do not have to pay for it again. Set new plans and eliminate fear from your thoughts and just move on!

LoVe NoteS by joe d'Mango

 


1.Love doesn't give us the promise of forever, but having faith on it makes us believe that there is.

2.Love is not a one-shot deal that you have to get right at first. You will always make mistakes and find your ideal partner. Love is also a process of finding your way, finding the right one.

3.The greatest mistake we'll make in a relationship is when we look at somebody else other than our partner to satisfy our emotional and physical needs. The second mistake is when we consciously allow ourselves to be the object of these emotional and physical desires.

4.We can never be certain of our relationships because not all of them are built to last our lifetime. We have to constantly nurture it so it can grow and we can grow old with it.

5.In the midst of despair, pain, and sorrow, someone comes in our life and gives us strength to believe in life again. The love they give us gives us a blind faith that helps us believe in ourselves again, that we can make our dreams come true.

6.Love can be the best thing that will ever happen to you. More often than not, your lover is also your best friend, one who will stand by you through thick and thin.

7.Most ordinary relationships begin and most of them continue as forms of mutual exploitation, a mental or physical barter, to be terminated when one or both parties run out of goods. The truth is you will not run out of goods if you believe you won't.

8.People cannot change who you really are. You just have to tell them and be honest about the real person behind you. You cannot hide in your cloak of deception forever. You deserve to be happy just by being yourself.

9.A relationship is a two way street. It's never all your fault or the other person's. You go into the relationship together and work through it all together. And remember, the best relationship is one w/c your love for each other exceeds your need for each other.

10.When we begin to put so much weight on what others feel and think about our relationships, we become distracted and lose our own perception of our partners.

11.If you choose to fight for love, then you should be prepared to face the consequences and risk associated with it. But if you choose to follow tradition over the dictate of your heart then you also have to be prepared to lose someone you love.

12.Let us always remember that, in the end it is not how much love we have received that would count, but how much love we have given and how much more we are willing to give even without the promise of earning it back.

13.We constantly have to make an extra effort to make others feel that they are important to us and the small things they do are appreciated. The greatness of a relationship is built on the foundation of small acts of kindness, love and compassion.

14.Whatever relationships you have attracted in your life at this moment, they are precisely the ones you need in your life at this moment. There is a purpose and meaning behind all events, and this purpose and meaning develops you as a person and as a lover.

Astig na Resume

Funny!!! This was a resume sent to a call center :-)

I. Personal Background

1. Name: Marjorie Barboza Lopez
- Everybody calls me Gigi though. I suits me better
than Marjorie or Marj. I think a Gigi is someone who
is fun, outgoing, smart, everybody's pal.Someone who
can think fast on her feet and lands on them too!
Most of all, a Gigi is someone who gets hired to do
the job.

2. Birthday: February 25,1975
- Undoubtedly, a very memorable day for my mother
Maria. Most probably not so memorable for my father
since he abandoned us shortly afer (but that's another
story)
- Which means that my zodiac sign is Pisces and that I
was born in the year of the Rabbit

3. Sibling: Marcial Laurence Barboza Lopez
- I call him Mat though, which is short for Matutina.
Apparently, his friends found his squeaky voice was
just like Matutina's of Marsha and John. He does not
sound like Matutina now but the name stuck.
- We used to fight a lot when we were kids but we get
along like a house on fire now. He's married with two
kids.

II. Educatonal Background

1. Primary Level: Nalsian Elementary school
- Incidentally, the same school where my mom taught
for 30 years. She was even my sixth-grade teacher. The
fact that I graduated valedictorian was due to my
superiior intellect and not because she was my
adviser. Honest.

2. Secondary Level: PSU Laboratory High School
- Located in the town of Bayambang, it is about 4
kilometers away from our home. There were only 20 boys
and 20 girls in a class and each year was composed of
one section so we were pretty small compared to the
national high school, which also meant that everybody
knew everybody. Funny thing was, my brother and I
acted like we did not even know each other. I told you
we did not get along pretty well in high school
- Most memorable experience was when all 20 girls in
our class went to a classmate's house to watch a
pornographic movie while her parents were away.

3. Tertiary Level: U.P. Diliman and AMA Computer
College-Dagupan

3.1. Big City
- I went to U.P. Diliman where I took up B.S.
Statistics. To this day, I cannot explainwhat made me
chose Statistics as my major. Mathematics and I mix as
well as oil and water. Eventually, I discovered SM
malls and got interested in attending them more than
my classes.
Ending: an unfinished education and a whole lot of
regrets.(Kids if you are reading, don't do this at
home)

3.2. Small City
- After my disastrous stint in the big city, I hanged
out at home for 2 years --- until mom put her foot
down: finish your education or else! I wanted to go
back to Manila but mom promptly vetoed the idea due to
my past "record" in the big city. I went to Dagupan,
where the biggest mall (at that time) could be easily
fitted inside Megamall Building A (and still have
enough room to play
football) and the movies were like weeks too late or
never get shown at all. I excelled in my studies
mainly because competition was scarce ( and I mean
SCARCE), there were not that much distractions and my
mother watched me like a hawk. I finally got my degree
in Computer Science.

III. The Aftermath
- I got an invitation to apply for a teaching job at
AMA shortly after. I applied and got it. It only took
me one trimester to know that teaching is not for me.
My schedule was a mess. I had a class at 7 in the
morning and the next one would be at 5 in the
afternoon. I preferred continuous action. Of course,
my patience and listening ability really improved,
what with students who could not grasp elementary
concepts and those who needed to be heard more than to
be lectured. I quit and became a professional couch
potato. My mother was not exactly ecstatic about my
decisions but she was not exactly unhappy either
because she gained a live-in
housekeeper/cook/nanny/laundrywoman in me. Heck, I
even did the windows. I was like a well-trained
housewife minus the philandering husband and kids.

IV. The Present
- I can not believe it! I've got acne all over my
face. Why now when all throughout my teenage years,
not one zit popped out? I have tried every
over-the-counter medications but nothing seems to
help. I have come to the conclusion that this would
require professional treatment. VIcky Belo or Pie
Calayan comes to mind. Unfortunately, this would mean
money which I don't have right now. My solution? Come
again to the big city and get a job. Besides, I've
come to realize that I am not fully utilizing my full
potential by just staying at home and playing
housekeeper. I mean I am smart and intelligent and f
unny and talented and honest and hardworking and
trustwothy and (ok ok you get the point) I need to go
out on dates,(paging eligible men who prefer
personality and humor to aesthetics) to rent my own
place and be independent and to go to the malls and
actually buy something. In other words, I need to
experience life! But first things first, I need a job
to jumpstart my plans.

V. The Future
- Driving the latest RAV 4 (my dream car), my mom and
I are on our way home after shopping and dining-out.
My acne is gone and my mom looks younger than her
years. Tomorrow, I have a date with the man of my
dreams. My career is flourishing and luck is on my
side - I have just won the Lotto jackpot!!!

VI. The Verdict
- I know that this is not the usual resume you receive
and hopefully read. Fact is, I have tried writing a
typical resume but I always find the finished product
bland and uninteresting and it does not convey the
real me. I hope you give this resume a fair chance.
