Spanish Lesson

A SPANISH Teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish, unlike English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine.


'House' for instance, is feminine: 'la casa.'
'Pencil,' however, is masculine: 'el lapiz.'


A student asked, 'What gender is 'computer'?'


Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two groups, male and female,
and asked them to decide for themselves whether computer' should be a masculine or a feminine noun. Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.


The men's group decided that 'computer' should definitely be of the feminine gender ('la computadora'), because:

1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;

2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else;

3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for possible later retrieval; and

4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself
spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.


(THIS GETS BETTER!)


The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be Masculine ('el computador'), because:

1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;

2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves;

3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem; and

4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model.



The women won! xD

No More Wishing

I've finally caught up with watching the new season 5 of How I Met Your Mother (MIMYM). However, I've only like downloaded half of it so I'm pretty much stuck at half way of the season. Gotta get my uTorrent all busy and having a slow internet connection for the rest of the week.

Anyhow, I still can't get enough of it so I'm pretty much re-watching the previous seasons now. One particular episode from season 4 had this song at the end of it which was pretty nice so I just decided to post it up here.

wake up, I'm trying to show you
I wanna come clean
you mean more than you should mean
but I'm willing to be

the one that you put on a pedestal
the one that you see in your dreams
the one that you hide your true self from
the one you want to please


and I know that it's wrong to want something
so false and so fake
it's not that I want to fix you
I just want to get my way

cause you're the one that I put on a pedestal
the one who keeps coming back to me
the one that I gave my whole heart to
the one who makes me believe

I want a love that's side by side
I want a love that holds me tight
I want a love that feels like a dream
but when I wake up, he's still there with me

so put me up on a pedestal
give me everything I need
but give it to me so completely
that there will be no more wishing
no more wishing
no more wishing
no more wishing

Breakeven

I've been just sitting, staring up into the ceiling and just letting my mind wonder and think about stuff. It's just stuff that I don't really know how to put into words let alone describe it. I've never been good at it and I doubt it's gonna get any better now.

Anyway, there's this wonderful song from The Script which has been playing on repeat for probably the whole night now. It's called Breakeven and its probably one of those songs that could be related to what's running through my mind right now.

Well, it's definitely late now so gonna be listening to it for a bit now before I go to sleep...

Twlog?

"This is my Twlog!!!" *_*

Yeap, that's probably what our blogs would sound like when Twitter finally takes over the world. Anyway, to all the Twittering peeps out there, this is something hilarious for ya to watch by David Letterman.

Until he mention it there, its pretty funny actually where you see people just posting up their current status, like what their doing at the moment, or maybe once in every hour. Fortunate for me, I'm still not really addicted to it yet. Considering there are millions of people twittering as we speak, still most of the people around me, like friends aren't even using twitter at the mo so its really, honestly saying, its pretty boring twitting but I'm still using it only to show that I'm up to date with the latest technology and trend. (okay, it's not the latest tech) :P

Anyway, its late in the night now and there's some stupid dog outside my house barking like none stop. Once he was even looking across my window barking for god-knows-what until I chase him off.Owh wait... this just cross my mind. Now I know what I have to do...

THIS GOES INTO TWITTER! :D
(check my twitter section)


Anyways, thats twitter put to good use. Hey, and also what do ya know, its not only a dog stamping its mark on me and my sleep but also stamping its mark on twitter.

AWESOME...

Last Words

I just had a chat with a good buddy last night and we had this conversation about his ex. It was a really sad experience from my friend as he told me he really liked this girl but somehow over the course of the 4 year relationship, she changed. She changed in a way that she realized that money was very important and she should be finding a boyfriend who is rich. One part of it was that she also had a friend who probably wasn't that pretty and all but still had a rich boyfriend. So thinking that even her ugly friend could get a rich guy, why not her? hence she cheated on my buddy and went out with this other rich guy who was courting her at that time.

Thing is, I've known my friend for quite some time and my honest opinion is that he is a really nice person, a great friend, and definitely one who treats his girlfriend very well. But he wasn't rich. It's just sickening to know that a girl would actually give in to money and throw away a boyfriend who loves and threats her very well.

Anyway, they (my friend and ex) broke up and the girl was actually in a relationship with the rich guy until just yesterday. I was told it wasn't even a year into the relationship and the reason for the break up was because she did not like his attitude and all. Well, I knew all this because this girl was actually looking for my friend after the break up but I'm just really glad that my friend is already with someone better who appreciates him for himself and not for what he has. Hence, here's one quote from a friend of mine (forgot who) and it goes "Date the guy, NOT date his car". Well, you get the drill.

Finally, we do realize that we don't really appreciate what is in front of us until its gone. People are usually so caught up in themselves and their own life that they forgot to think about the people around em. And from my friends experience, I should probably say that as much as you like a person and if the person doesn't appreciate you, you should probably stop wasting your time as there would be that someone out there still kindly in wait for you to really take and appreciate what you have to give.

"How do I say goodbye to someone I never really had? Why do my tears fall so endlessly for someone who was never really mine? Why is it I miss someone I was never really with? And why do I love someone whose love was never really mine?"

Sneakers and some funny promotions

Gahhhh... my multipurpose shoe, also better known as my basketball shoe is finally giving way to wear and tear. The bottom has totally worn out with a huge hole in it which justified how I could slip and stumble to the ground on a rough surface.

Well, it just means its FINALLY time to change me shoes. I'm probably thinking of getting this...

Nike Zoom Kobe IV (4)

You should probably know I'm a HUGE fan of Kobe Bryant and the Lakers so he is definitely my best basketball player ahead of Michael Jordan. No idea why I'm kinda into purple stuff nowadays but the while and black plus purple trim just makes the shoe look so nice. But gosh, I think this shoe would cost me up to 500 bucks which is bit pricey :|(my most expensive is still the Adidas Kobe II costing 300 bucks 6 years ago, which still, looks pretty awesome)

Adidas Kobe II (like a rock)

Anyway, I've been searching through internet and I found a rather hilarious commercial...

This is the commercial for the promotion of Guitar Heroes: World Tour game and as you can see, there are a host of big name in the pic. From the left we have Michael Phelps - the greatest swimmer of all time, Tony Hawk - one of the best professional skateboarder famed for his 900, Kobe Bryant - probably the best in the NBA and Alex Rodriguez - I'm not sure but I know he led the New York Yankees to the MLB title this year.

Any how, do enjoy this weird and funny lil clip of the guys enjoying the game...

How to SPOT a rich guy

Thing is, I've just been looking through some hilarious comments on what we call "The Beauty and the Beast".

Again, its no surprise that some young hawt chicks would jump right into the cash pool regardless of anything.

So how would you identify one?




there would be no better illustration than this...

:D
