SAMPIPol LOVE SHOES OF CERTAIN KINDS...
Some girls spend their fortune on make-up.
Some girls love colourful clothing.
Some girls love to be surrounded with boys.

I'm not some girls.
I don't like bright colours.
They hurt my eyes.

I don't like ALL boys.

I'm not flowing with evanescent styles so I can be liked.
I don't want cursory attention.
I don't want to be noticed and be approached by people I do not know.

All can admire or condemn me from afar.

Don't ask why I'm like this because I have no answer.
I am what I am just like you are what you are.
And if I can't change myself, nobody else can.
If you don't like it, there's always the choice of fucking off.
No such word as compromise here.

I am a ball of angry energy.
Anger fuels me.
I bet that's what you're thinking.
You don't know me so once again, fuck off.

I LOVE laughing!!!
I'm an offspring of the Jolly Green Giant.

BWAHAHAHAHAH!!! My laughter is LOUD.

I'm a salmagundi.
I'm a contradiction to a contradiction to a contradiction.
I'm mentally ductile.
From morose to blithe.
Perky would be the last word to describe me.

Oooh another window to Joy's quintessence.

***Title from PNE's Sampip

If you fart & burp at the same time, will you implode?
That's not really the topic of the day.

I want to talk about homophobia. I know it's not news. It just pisses me off how judgmental people can get. I can be judgmental but I keep it to myself and I still try not to discriminate. I think everyone should be treated equally as long as no one gets hurt.

Whenever my older sister's sexual orientation comes up in conversations, I'd get questions such as:

a) Does she come on to you?

***Urgh! First of all, homosexuals aren't necessarily incestuous.

b) Are you gay too?
***Homosexuality, as far as I know, isn't contagious.

c) Is she ok with you divulging that kind of info?
***Why not?

I'm not surprised to find out my Sister's an Atheist. At least she knows homosexuality's not accepted in Catholicism or any other religion for that matter. But my Mom constantly reminds her God loves her. Yeah, but dogmatics dont. Why do fanatics think they're much better than everybody else? It's not like they follow the Bible from cover to cover. There are heterosexuals who are much worse than homosexuals. Fanatics are in no place to judge people who are not 'normal'. If you want to talk Biblish, here's one verse "Let the one without sin cast the first stone" None of us are perfect. I know what they're going to say, we don't claim to be perfect. No, but they act like it. Like they're closer to God than everyone else. A person should not be condemned for their sexuality. Everyone should be treated equally.

I don't say anything to Catholic people, even if I don't like that particular denomination. Because I believe people have the right to practice what they want, as long as they dont hurt anyone.

Let me tell you why Catholicism's not one of my favourites. When the Spaniards came to invade Philippines, they wanted everyone to be Catholic. When the Americans came to 'rescue' Philippines, they wanted everyone to be Catholic. According to the CIA, Philippines is 83% Roman Catholic. Why are some people so fuckin' proud of it? Take note, I said SOME. According to former US President William McKinley, America's mission was 'to take them all and to educate the Filipinos, and uplift and civilize and Christianize them. Some of you may say 'But they're just doing what they thought was right back then'. I strongly disagree, they could've 'helped' without massacring thousands of Filipinos. If I knew how Philippines became a Christian nation, I wouldn't stay Catholic, unless I truely feel it's the right religion for me, not because 'we were invaded by Spaniards so I just don't bother to change it'. I used to be one. Like most people who were born in Philippines, I went to Catholic school up until we left. Not to say my denominations better than Catholicism. But I understand and agree with my religion's beliefs better than I do with Catholicism. I'm still a Christian.

I don't reply to gay related threads anymore, just because I think it's pointless to 'debate' with fanatics. They've already made up their (closed) mind.

I say just live and fuck off.

Bitching About Bitching
Hi! So I do have some readers. Grrreat. Grrreat, say it like Tony the Tiger. Or say it like an Irish guy. GRRRReat!

Are you disenchanted? Let's play a game. Deduce how many times I've utilized the word B-I-T-C-H in my journal entries todate. Sometimes I worry wee ones might see all the bad words. Well, they can look it up the dictionary bweheheh!

What have I to talk about?

I've been browsing a bunch of profiles here lately and noticed how some of the members put their 'dislikes' on their profiles. I not only noticed that here in FilCa but in most sites I've frequented to.

I'm guilty of doing such thing in the good old days. So like the hypocrite that I am, I'm bitching about it now.

Really, what's the purpose of putting all those bad traits (backstabbers, hypocrites, gold-diggers, you get the idea) as your dislikes? I mean, who likes those kinds of personalities? NOBODY. Doesn't it go without saying?
What's your intention? So the person reading your profile can think 'Oh, (s)he doesn't like this personality (which I possess), I guess won't bother her/him'. Get real. Who the fuck knows if they're being rude, or if they're backstabbing? Unless it's being done deliberately, no one in their right mind would even think to admit they possess any one of those traits.

Or maybe the reader would think 'Wow, (s)he's so perfect, (s)he dislikes the same things I do!' Isa pa 'yon!

Why am I bitching about this? It has nothing to do with the person(s) I pry. Because that's what I do. I bitch. This brings us to the main topic (see Title). Frankly, I'm tired of bitching. But bitching is what makes me, well...ME. I have a hard time differentiating bitchiness from being observant. In my defense, I still find goodness in most things despite my bitching, after all, my name IS Joy.

God Bless That Bitch
KC said, referring to Cher. Just came from the Rama, for KC & The Sunshine Band. Yeah I know they were popular before I was even born. What can I say? Oldies rank 2nd to alternative when we're talking about MY favourite kind of music. Although they didn't play that one song I knew them first from, I still had fun. I know who else did, my Mom. Heheheh. Kasama ko lahat sa pamilya ko. I love it. Next week sana matuloy kami sa bowling.

Of course my day won't be complete without my usual (nonsensical) observations

a) People, when playing slots, look like robots. Without emotions, blankly staring at the screens, pressing the buttons.

b) I tried one machine, put in a five-dollar bill, and finished it in 3 seconds.

c) But don't feel bad, this guy, had $200 and used it all on the slots. Enough said.

d) If you're like me, who sometimes get insecure about your age, and the back of your hand gets stamped in a casino, that means you still look young and shouldn't worry about your wrinkles. *rolls eyes*

Just Another Anesthetized Day
By now, you should've realized I adore using champagne words. It makes me seem like a li'l aristocrat. Ho Hum.

Something to add to my previous entry, Stephen Root is also a voice in Tripping The Rift.

Can boredom kill you? What a dumb question. Of course not. But can it make a person kill another? Ohhh, one thing's for sure, boredom can make one person morbid. Take ME for instance. I'm not going to elaborate on that. Nobody's interested. I certainly am not.

Gusto ko nang umuwi at matulog ng mahimbing. Can somebody correct my grammar? I feel I need to go back to school and learn some more.

Don't you hate it when you feel numb? No, not dumb, NUMB. Physically, not emotionally. I hope my senses come back soon.

Thursdays used to be one of my favourite days. I still like it, but not love it.

More senseless monologue later...

Meron kaya akong (mga) tagasubaybay? Just curious!
