Are you familiar with the Annoying Facebook Girl meme? I’m sure you know someone like that. Heck, if we’re Facebook friends, your finger is probably pointed at me. Yes, I admit, I was that girl. Take note, I said WAS. As in past tense. As in now she’s just somebody that you used to know. I […]
Handling Humiliation with Humor
When something incredibly embarrassing happens to you, what do you do? Take Jennifer Lawrence, who tripped and fell on the steps on her way up to the stage to accept her Academy Award for best actress earlier this year. When she was asked much much later about what went through her mind when it happened, […]
Favored Freedom
I don’t know if this is a sign of aging, but lately I no longer like reading fiction but prefer books about real events, real people. Maybe it’s just a phase. Let’s see. The book I last finished is William and Harry by Katie Nicholl. If you read my C post on Celebrity Crushes, you […]
The Right Person
Modern Family is one of my favorite TV shows because it has both comedy and heart. You will laugh at their antics but at the end of most episodes, there is usually a lesson to be learned that makes you appreciate your loved ones, especially your family. In the latest episode (S04E17), “Best Men,” gay […]
Too Late
One of the things I love about How I Met Your Mother is how it touches on issues that I can relate to. As the characters grow older, their issues change, and because I’m close to their age, it’s like I’m growing up with them. Season 8 Lily is a lot different from season 1 […]
Multiply Memories
Multiply is going the Friendster route, that is, folding up their social network side and choosing to focus on where it does well – the marketplace. And so like Friendster, they have given their members the chance to download old memories. I have copies of all the photos that I uploaded to my site then, […]
Third Star (Movie Review)
“I’m 29 today. I won’t see 30.” This is how James starts off the film. Right away it strikes a chord in me because that is my age at this moment. How would it feel, to have to say that? “I’m 29 today. I won’t see 30.” Suddenly I want to berate myself for panicking […]
Ted Talks: Ideas Worth Spreading
TED (Technology, Entertainment and Design) is a global set of conferences owned by the private non-profit Sapling Foundation, formed to disseminate “ideas worth spreading.” You can view these talks on their website. A few weeks ago, they launched an app that allows you to listen to these talks from your phone, and suddenly I stopped […]
Blame Game
(This blog was actually my email to a friend after receiving her text to me last night. It sounded like a blog much more than an email, so I decided to publish it here. Haha.) Blame. If only I hadn’t done this or that, maybe he wouldn’t have left me. I went through that. And […]
Inked
Some eight years ago, I wrote the prologue for our college yearbook. Surprisingly, I find that it holds true not just for college but for life. Decided to transcribe it as it doesn’t seem to be that clear: Years ago, when we first stepped into college, troublesome thoughts assailed our senses. Some of us had […]
