Seven Things to Do When You’re In a Relationship

...with Kim Sam Soon :) I have been obsessing over the Korean Drama "My Name is Kim Sam Soon." I already liked it when I was able to watch a few episodes when it aired on the local channel GMA 7. But I wasn't able to watch everything. Thanks to the magic of the internet and my Kdrama expert friend Brendel, I am now watching the complete series, with two episodes to go. I am loving every moment of it, except the scenes with Yoo Hee Jin and Doctor Henry Kim. Pft! Otherwise, I love it. <3 In Episode 14, Kim Sam Soon and Sam Shik finally dates, FOR REAL! And Sam Soon tells Sam Shik they should do seven things as a couple. Here's her list... #7 Shopping while holding hands. #6 Photo of Sam Soon's boyfriend on her phone. #5 Take a train ride while drinking beer on the way to Pusan. #4 Say "I love you Kim Hee Jin*" in front of everyone. #3 Get intimate while watching a horror movie. #2 Get couple rings. #1 Introduce each other to their parents as each other's boyfriend/girlfriend. *At this point of the Kdrama, Sam Soon changed her name…

Why I Haven't Lost Hope

Everyday, people ask me why I am not worried that at 26, I am single and have no prospects for a husband. Heck! I haven't even really had a serious long-term relationship. I'm retarded, I know. SHADDUP! Other people are more worried than I am. It doesn't really bother me a lot. I know I whine, blog, and Plurk a lot about boys, having them, not having them, and many other variations of being with them or having problems with them. But the truth is, I am taking things slowly, am just out there to have fun. I am not losing sleep over the fact that my biological clock is ticking and I might never get married or have children. You see, when I broke up with my so-called boyfriend, Ate Aileen told me to take it easy and have fun with teh boys. She literally told me to find, meet up, and maybe date at least three boys per week. I took her advice to heart and didn't take anybody seriously. Rather, I went out there and had fun. I'm still having fun. Right now, I really don't know what it is I want from a guy and from…

The Greatest Thing

"The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love, and be loved in return." -Moulin Rouge One of my favorite movies is Moulin Rouge. Partly because of the line above. Yes, to love and be loved is the greatest thing one can experience. It is hard to love. It is a daunting thing to accept, understand, nurture, to love a person. It is difficult to choose to be with another person, to make that life a part of who you are, even if you don't have to. Much harder, I think, is to be loved in return. We choose to love. That choice is in our hands. But to be loved in return, that is not something we choose. It it something that the other person chooses for us. To be loved in return is one of the best things one can experience. But no matter how hard you love, how badly you want it to happen, how much you work for it, being loved in return... Is not something you can easily get. That is exactly why it is such a great thing, the best thing to love and be loved in return. Being in the business of…

Wanted: BOYFRIEND Part 2

Last year, out of boredom and a bit of desperation, I launched a Wanted: Boyfriend campaign which was a super FAIL. Anyhow... This year, I'm launching a similar campaign for my friend Junelle... Junelle is my age, 26 years old and a single mom of two. She is an only child who now works as the manager of a small team of web developers, graphic artists, web masters, and SEO practitioners. She is also a blogger, and online almost 24 hours a day. Junelle is looking for a fair-skinned guy who is at least 5'7 tall, FAT (yeahaaa!), and older than her (>27) who has a pleasing personality and is a loving boyfriend, and NOT A PLAYBOY! She also wants a guy who is already a professional. So if you are the guy Junelle is looking for, or you know somebody who will fit the bill, please reply in this blog entry, or write a blog entry about you (or whoever the potential bf is) and link back to this entry. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?! Let's moves those asses and find Junelle a boyfriend.
