Oh brother.

Hey you! (...yes YOU!) You must be wondering.. what the &%$#@ am I doing here?

That's the way I approach life.

I mean think about it. Life's too short to take it seriously anyway.
And if you live life like you're afraid to die then when you die,
you'll realize you haven't live at all or something like that.
(I'm trying to sound smart so bear with me.)

Or by the time you're through, you'll just look like an old hag.
Seriously. You don't wanna live life looking like that.

This is err, a place I call home. My comfort zone.
A place where I can do stuff without anyone nagging me about it.
Here in a loosey-goosey environment, I write. I listen. I speak. I draw.
I curse. I play. I flirt. I dance. I party. I try to entertain. I...

just do. 'Coz I want to. And you can't do anything about it.

Well, what are you doing here? Believe it or not, destiny have brought you here little one..(and serendipity perhaps?)
Everything happens for a reason. At this very moment. YOU should be here. "COINCIDENCE happens."

Since you are here just the same, please take the time to look around. I'm sure you'll find something interesting to read or look at. This thing you are reading right now won't tell you what I'm all about. See the pictures below?! (..those are navigational things and have some purpose)
So use your mouse to accomplish something..

And, oh yeah..
Make the most out of your stay

Welcome.

The Birds and The Bees

you're in luck. here's a treat for y'all. i saw this while browsing through some old files in my computer. here's something i wrote way back when i was tyring to win some writing contest.

i enjoyed re-reading this. it's funny how i pathetically tried to plead just to win. oh well, we were all young and naive once.

i thought it would work.

---------------------

As you probably noticed, I'm cramming this article to submit it just in time for the Feb 28 deadline which is the last day you can submit articles. I could probably blame it all on my education. They sorta train us to be this way. During those days, we were given so many stuff to do that you probably should have a cape and wear your briefs over your pants in order to finish them all. So here I am still doing the same thing hoping that it will have the same outcome as before (I did get an A for that project I crammed).

I hope that I win even though I'm not a writer. I like babbling. I like using parentheses. I like writing about useless stuff. I'm not even sure my grammar is in order. So please if you see something wrong with the way I write (I don't proof read or anything...), I beg you, correct it. This way I can save some of the dignity I have left. I'm also wordy. I like describing something in a few paragraphs when it could easily be done in a few words. I'm never been known to conserve words.

Why do it you ask? I'm doing it for the prize money (yes, show me the money!) But there's a noble reason why I want to win and this is to buy something nice for a couple of people (for my mom, my sisters, and my girl).

You are probably asking yourself, "What about you? What will you get for yourself?" To tell you the truth, I haven't really thought about it. So now you're scratching your head and wondering, "Why buy all those stuff and not get anything for yourself?"

Aha! This is where my title "The Birds and The Bees" comes in. And you thought I just use it to grab your attention (although that was the idea).

Here's a quick back story: I just seem to notice that more and more men and women don't get along. You can see it in the number of books written about the subject. Even magazines have articles like "101 ways to please your man" that "supposedly" teaches women to understand men better.

I just have one word to describe all this -- Ridiculous.

I will try to explain the main difference between men and women (what do I know anyway?). Men are simple while women are complicated. Let it sink in for moment.

The problem with women is that they get too many advices about men from other women. They don't know what they are talking about. If you don't understand men then you're probably thinking too hard.

Case in point. Men have the same sexual fantasy -- two women. If you ask men what's better than that, they'll answer more women. See? It's because we're simple. Men are all the same. What do men really want -- Sex and success. Why do we want to succeed? It's because success, money and power, brings you the sex part. Want more evidence? When we tell a story, its all about the facts. Who, What, When, Where, and Why. "John and I went to a basketball game. It sucked. So we went for a couple of drinks instead." End of story.

Simple.

Women on the other hand are complicated. One second they want everything another second they don't know what they want. When women talk there is usually a lot of feelings involved. You should understand this about women. You should never undermine their feelings. Feelings are very important to women. That's where a lot of misunderstandings happen. Proof? When women talk to each other, there are a lot of feelings involved. "I just don't understand my boyfriend. He suddenly doesn't want to talk to me. Maybe it's something I said? You need to understand, I just had an argument with my dad so I was feeling vulnerable..."

Complicated.

Men in reality are cavemen/hunters. They do things to "capture" their prey which in this case their prey is the women. Since women like nice cars, we buy nice cars in order to lure women. The car is the bait.

This is why I want to win to big. I want to have enough money to buy nice stuff for my mom and sis because I think that they endured enough crap from me all these years. I also need some money to buy some bait (to get me more girls). I will try to be sensitive to their feelings. So I decided to go for broke and join this contest. I hope I can be famous and rich at the same time (two for the price of one!). We'll see how it goes.

Oh, I forgot to tell you guys, I also like wasting people’s time. I think I just wasted yours. Haha.

Look out! Smart-ass coming through!

Mr. Poe is a paradox. He is young yet he is old. That is from his age and his responsibilities.
He has a day job and what does he do at night? Nobody knows yet.
Whether he is a Casanova, a dead ringer for a celebrity, or a ninja, only a few people will know.
Sometimes he can be generally boring or a walking time bomb. Spontaneous.
Some sources thinks he is like a riddle and he to likes being mysterious with that poker face of his.
And he likes it that way.
If he is inspired or compelled by necessity, he likes to and writes forgettable pieces of poetry and songs or draw undecipherable works of garbage err.. arts.
Otherwise, the rest of his time is consumed by web design, painting, and sports.
Apathy. That's what he feels most of the time but wants to go to heaven. Still Optimistic.
He still believes he is a prodigy and secretly hopes he has traces of the Godfather, Beatles, and Da Vinci in his soul.
