Digital Martial Law: 10 scary things about the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 reiterating sarcastic but meaningful sense on the issue: >tagged as ‘mala prohibita law’-an accepted legal rule that offenses under special laws—so bawal na magjoke F@#K! >You’re damned if you’re lying and you’re damned if you’re telling the truth.—what’s the deal with this? or is there even a deal with this? >The law says, if you can’t say anything good, then you better not say anything at all. That’s great for petty issues but not when we’re talking about people who use their position to take advantage of defenseless individuals.—hindi lahat ng tao ganun kabait.. even the considered good ones have a dark side indeed. darker than what you think maybe.  >It’s an I Know What You Posted Several Summers Ago scenario.—may ganon? so sige kalkalin nyo isa isa lahat ng profiles. haram! pati ako kulong neto! >the act of clicking the “Like” button of Facebook or re...

i love reading (in general). it makes me learn things (even the ones which i never knew existed or by far, the impossible), it shakes my soul, it shapes me holistically.  and here are the things that made sense as i read a blog randomly....  lessons for the day.. > "you should never be lazy". women should make that extra effort to wake up a little earlier everyday to fix themselves up.---just what i did today yey! i'm up to a good start weeee!!! a little effort of waking up everyday to make myself beautiful is a good thing and a lot easier now :)) >"there's no such thing as a fashion no-no". gold and silver, brown and black, print in print. it's all about the right kind of mix.----i was stuck with the par. with the level of thinking that brown and black should never be mixed plus print and print will  make you look like a clown.hehe but now, i am amazed at how the so-called fashion bloggers can make the ordinary, extraordinary, the simple, e...

pissed i have been going through self pity for the past few months. i cannot pretend that i don’t get hurt whenever people especially of my kin telling me straight to my face that i am one fat arsed bitch. yes i am fat, and telling it straight to my face or gossiping about it won’t make me any less thinner. i am on a mission to diet and exercise the best way i can. not for anyone who has compromised the health of my ego but for me. so that i can stand in front of them, proud and smiling with an ‘in-yer-face’ look on my pretty face.. i am no superhuman who has a self-deflecting bracelet that could protect me from any more insults. actually these words do make sense and it will boost me to have a better body and health. give me some time folks. this won’t be easy but i can do it you’ll see. --- this was a blog i reposted from my account from tumblr a day ago. at that time, as the title of it suggests, i was really pissed ...
