Magic 8ball


I was at a toy store of a shopping mall one time when a group of highschool girls, were giggling over a shelf of boxes with round object inside. They caught my attention since each one of them (they were 5) holds a box, whispering something to the box then will shake it and then will peak into the hole in the box, in synchronize.
I smiled as I heard names of boys after every sentence. Out of my curiosity, I approached one of them and ask, what is it. "ate, Magic 8ball po, magtatanong ka tapos i-shake lang po tas may sagot na lalabas dito sa may butas, babasahin lang po".
Interesting.
After reading the instructions, I left the girls still with line up of questions for the Magic 8ball to answer.
Sometimes we tend to seek answers for our questions in life, irregardless of its significance, in the most easy, unusual way. Who doesn't want an instant answer to all the questions bothering the hell out of our thoughts specially if it's questions of the heart? Does he misses me? Is he thinking about me? Does he loves me? etc etc.
It may be a silly thing to do for some, but heck, whatever answers it gives you, either a smile or a frown or a doubt on your face. There's still the excitement of what could be the answer. The anticipation gives you goose bumps.
The thing is, the answers for the so many questions still to unravel within time. We do not depend our decisions and plans on whatever instant answers we get. We work hard on it, we pray, we hope.
Try it, Magic 8ball, and have fun!

from Wikipedia: The Magic 8 Ball is a toy used for fortune-telling or seeking advice.
The Magic 8 Ball is a hollow plastic sphere resembling an oversized, black and white 8-ball. Inside is a cylindrical reservoir containing a white, plastic, icosahedral die floating in alcohol with dissolved dark blue dye. The die is hollow, with openings in each face, allowing the die to fill with fluid, giving the plastic die minimal buoyancy. Each of the 20 faces of the die has an affirmative, negative, or non-committal statement printed on it in raised letters. There is a transparent window on the bottom of the Magic 8 Ball through which these messages can be read.
To use the ball, it must be held with the window initially facing down. After "asking the ball" a yes-or-no question, the user then turns the ball so that the window faces up, setting in motion the liquid and die inside. When the die floats to the top and one of its faces is pressed against the window, the raised letters displace the blue liquid to reveal the message as white letters on a blue background. Contrary to popular belief, it is not necessary (or recommended) to shake or jostle the ball before turning it, as doing so can create air bubbles that may visually distort the answer.

Breakaway



























Don't know where and when to start. I've got a list of To Do's and time is ticking!


"Breakaway"
Kelly Clarkson

Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down
I'd just stare out my window
Dreaming of what could be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray (I would pray)

Trying hard to reach out
But when I tried to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I prayed I could break away

[Chorus:]
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I love
I'll take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway

Wanna feel the warm breeze
Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get onboard a fast train
Travel on a jet plane, far away (I will)
And breakaway

[Chorus]

Buildings with a hundred floors
Swinging around revolving doors
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me but
Gotta keep moving on, moving on
Fly away, breakaway

I'll spread my wings
And I'll learn how to fly
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye
I gotta take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget the place I come from
I gotta take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway, breakaway, breakaway

On which category it belongs?

I've been gruelling for couple of hours categorizing each blog entry here. And my fingers sings e-nie-mi-nie-my-nie-mo non-stop... and I was just able to do so on few on already hundreds of entries here. Geez! and I think it'll take a lot more time. Patience is a virtue.

On the many events happened in our lives, which category mostly it belongs?
Our thoughts, opinions, and beliefs, does it all just boils down to one category?
Or we are always in wander?

Life is indeed full of surprises!

Changing

My site is obviously changing dramatically... uhmmm I mean, I changed the template and the layout. And still on-going on its details... Please bear with the confusion somehow on the places of the widgets and the like.
I'm learning at the same time... haha!
By the way, I've added some colorful fishes on the side bar, please feed them (by clicking your mouse on it), and try to make them fat, haha! (but I bet they won't! just like me!)
Have a crazy surfing! =)

Land Down Under... under water

Land Down Under is/getting under water literally, almost 3/4 of Queensland has been affected by the continuous rains brought by La Nina phenomenon. Brisbane river is now rising to its peak and tomorrow morning more than 20,000 homes is expected to be flooded.
We are only about 15mins away from Brisbane City, where Brisbane River is. We had the share of the effect of the floods, as our work was cancelled yesterday due to heavy rains and some areas surrounding our workplace is already flooded. We are then on evacuation alert.
Tomorrow is quite uncertain, though our place is on higher grounds, we are keeping our prayers for safety of everyone.
Thank you to all my friends who reached out and showed their concerns thru txts, phone calls, chat.
I must admit I was expecting to hear from someone... but...

God Bless us always!

Only Girl In The World

















Definitely this year will be a more challenging year, a lot of new awaits... being on a new world... but one old wish will remain...

Only Girl in the World
Rihanna


La, la, la, la

La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la

I want you to love me like I'm a hot guy
Keep thinkin' of me, doin' what you like
So boy, forget about the world
'Cause it's gon' be me and you tonight
I wanna make your bed for ya
Then I'ma make you swallow your pride

Want you to make me feel like I'm the only girl in the world
Like I'm the only one that you'll ever love
Like I'm the only one who knows your heart
Only girl in the world like I'm the only one that's in command

'Cause I'm the only one who understands
How to make you feel like a man
Want you to make me feel like I'm the only girl in the world
Like I'm the only one that you'll ever love
Like I'm the only one who knows your heart, only one

Want you to take me like a thief in the night
Hold me like a pillow, make me feel right
Baby, I'll tell you all my secrets that I'm keepin'
You can come inside
( From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/r/rihanna-lyrics/only-girl-(in-the-world)-lyrics.html )
And when you enter, you ain't leavin'
Be my prisoner for the night

Want you to make me feel like I'm the only girl in the world
Like I'm the only one that you'll ever love
Like I'm the only one who knows your heart
Only girl in the world like I'm the only one that's in command

'Cause I'm the only one who understands
Like I'm the only one who knows your heart, only one

Take me for a ride
Oh baby, take me high
Let me make you first
Oh, make it last all night

Take me for a ride
Oh baby, take me high
Let me make you first
Make it last all night

Want you to make me feel like I'm the only girl in the world
Like I'm the only one that you'll ever love
Like I'm the only one who knows your heart
Only girl in the world like I'm the only one that's in command

'Cause I'm the only one who understands
How to make you feel like a man
Only girl in the world, girl in the world
Only girl in the world, girl in the world
