Fighting Stance

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do." -- Mark Twain

The wretched woman wrote me back: she's not giving me back my $500. The question now is whether or not I should take this matter to court.

My mind right now: It's $500; it's just money; I can still earn that. Crap, though, that's $500...that's a digital camera and a whole lot of stuff. She's an evil woman; She deserves to feel like crap as I have about all this. How badly do I want the money back? Can I handle prolonging this? It won't cost me that much money to try; I just need to pay the $25-$50 filing fee. But I do want to move on from all of this. Is peace of mind priceless, or can $500 buy it? Are lessons about life really worth $500? If I don't accept this challenge, what else will I back down in the future? There won't be any lawyers; just the judge, me and the wretched woman...I can handle that, can't I? Will the judge not focus on the signed agreement, but the breach of oral agreement, as well as my interpretation of the law? Will I find enough comfort that God will take care of this woman in the future? How many people have been wronged before, but backed down just because they were scared eventhough they were right? Do I believe that the law helps the good people and not the bad?

If you were me, what would you do? Let it go? Or, go "Judge Judy" on this woman?

First (Taiwanese) Love Never Dies

After listening to your new CD, I found out that this still holds true: Wo ai ni, Ken!

I have no idea what Track 9 is about (or any of the tracks!), but I've been playing it all night. All I ask is for you to refrain from cutting your hair like Jerry, dyeing your hair like Vic, and dressing up like Vanness. Stay away from all the metrosexuality! Afterall, I love you just the way you are. LoL.

And before I forget to tell you, I'll be in Hong Kong in May...*wink *wink. HeHe!

Surviving The Beach

Today was my first day on the South Beach Diet. You know what, it's not so bad. Okay, the V8 vegetable juice I had to drink for breakfast was nasty as hell, but everything else was fine (Whoever thought of making vegetables into juice must not have any tastebuds!). If you're Filipino, I would suggest eliminating rice way before you start this diet. Otherwise, I don't think you'll survive the first day. HeHe.

The book did mention that most people who don't become successful with this diet are those who travel. Thanks, thanks a lot. HeHe. Even I'm worried just surviving week two of this since I'll be working by then. It's fine and dandy right now since I'm just bumming around the house and I got nothing better to think about than my spinach quiche in the oven, but when things start getting hectic, all hell breaks loose, you know?

Anyway, here are a few of my mantras for the next two weeks: Thou shall love proteins. Thou shall cook for thyself instead of eating what's on the dinner table. Thou shall think about Zara's wedding. Thou shall remember that thy metabolism isn't what it used to be. Thou shall think about the possible cute boys in Asia. Thou shall keep the hope alive!

Movie Fest

A summary of my two-day movie marathon:

1. Feng Shui (Filipino)
I almost didn't make it to Disc 2. HaHa! I watched the entire movie behind my two hands with only small spaces between my fingers and I made sure not to stare at any of the scary-looking characters. I think this is my last scary movie ever; my heart is getting too weak! HeHe.

2. Untold Scandal (Korean)
I am sooooo disappointed! That is all I'm going to say because my site is PG-13 afterall. HaHa!

3. Dance with the Wind (Korean)
Totally reminded me of Dancing King. See, people? There *are* straight male dancers out there! I just haven't come across any!

4. Now That I Have You (Filipino)
All I want to know is where Bea got all her outfits for that movie. Also, are there really cute guys who ride the MRT? I sure didn't see any in 2002!

5. My Little Bride (Korean)
Kim Rae Won will have to duke it out with Bayong. HaHa! Despite the wispy, dyed hair, he's still a cute youngin. Anyway, how many times do I have to say that guys don't need to spend a lot in order to make a girl happy? Yes, painting a wall can make all the difference in a relationship! HeHe.
