Teenage Sex is A Reality

April 16, 2008

One of my observations when I started working as a pharmacist here in Canada is the fact that parents are very open about teenage sex. During my first few months in the pharmacy, I noticed that the Moms would personally come to pick-up their daughter’s contraceptive pills (birth control pills). The popular brandnames for contraceptives are Diane 35, Alesse, Tri-Cyclen, MinOvral, Triphasil, to name a few. Anyway, most of these pills may be used also for acne control. But I tell you, the Moms would pick up those contraceptive pills to make sure that their teenage girls don’t get pregnant. Let’s face it, a teenager will do what a teenager wants to do. I’ve been there. Hot

The Quest for Blue Hair

December 28, 2007

After years of people hearing me say that I wanted to dye my hair blue, I finally did it!

Right now, I have blue hair. Obviously, blue is not my natural hair color. It came from a bottle, or more like a packet of dye.

Generic Clothes

I was riding a jeepney yesterday, on my way to work. A girl got on the vehicle and sat beside me. Immediately, my mood improved. I was smiling until I got to the office.

Why? Because the girl beside me was wearing a blouse IDENTICAL to the one worn by a girl seating across us.

How awkward could that be?!

The Women of “Like Water for Chocolate”

October 17, 2007

I just want to post this because I’m quite proud of this paper when the rest of my classmates discussed about the romance in the novel. I had to retype this because I only have the original hard copy which I submitted to my professor. This post is slightly altered from the original paper to include my teacher’s comments and corrections. Unfortunately, I forgot her name but Ma’am MZM(S?or L?) thank you for your interest in my paper and for the grade. ;)

OFW SEX SLAVES!

September 10, 2007

The figures presented in Karlo Mongaya’s site concerning human trafficking of Filipinas is very disturbing! The video depicting how two senior citizen Americans traveled 6,000 miles away from their home, Mr. Troop Edmunds and Mr.Jerry Hawe, to rescue Lani, a Filipina from an alleged sex slavery syndicate in Malaysia was so moving. It shows how helpless Lani were, under the dictates of her ward. She went abroad in the hope of finding greener pasture only to be, allegedly, enslave through fear, intimidation, duress and, maybe, even drugged to become a puppet of her ward. What she earned out of her sweet, flesh and tears is not even enough to repay her indebtedness for food, clothing and shelter, if  her  ward is to sum it all. I thought that the Filipina rescued by Mr. Edmunds and Mr. Hawe from the alleged syndicate, is just among the 30 women allegedly held against their will in Limbang, Malaysia.

 

Research made by Karlo based on the studies conducted, however, revealed that Lani and her 30 other former companions still left in Malaysia are just part “of about 400,000 women trafficked within the Philippines annually, according to the US State Department’s Human Rights Report in 2005.” Are these Filipinas considered part of our OFWs? Are they protected by OWWA? If not for this two senior citizen Americans who stopped at nothing to recover Lani, these incident could not have been publicized. I wonder, however, what has happened to that maid in the Middle East who was allegedly raped by her ward.

How vain are you?

August 5, 2007

I have been found out! It has now come out that I am indeed what you would call… VAIN! And I have to admit I am.

Here are some of the things that prove exactly why.

I always check out my reflection in mirrors, windows, computer monitors, or any other shiny surfaces. I am very conscious about how I look and I constantly have this need to check whether hair strands are standing up and out, or whether I have flyaways, or to make sure that my face isn’t too white or too blushed. I also often check to see I do not have facial hair that is obviously showing.

Fab finds online

July 17, 2007

I must admit, online shopping in the Philippines is not very popular. And when I say online shopping it is going to a site to purchase an item using a credit card. There are few Pinoy sites that offer online shopping (that I know of mind you), and most online shopping done by Pinoys are on international sites like amazon.com or something. Most sites that I know my friends visit to shop are ebay philippines and bidshot.com where the seller and buyer arrange on how payments can be made.

Pond’s Age Miracle commercial

June 11, 2007

This is a follow up to my last Pond’s Age Miracle post. That post has become number one in Google in the search for Pond’s Age Miracle. It seems there are a lot of women enticed to buy this product because as the commercials say - it only takes 7 days for a miracle to happen (duhh!). I have discovered several other more commercials throughout the world, in different languages that do not do a good job of portraying beauty. Although the ads are varying, they all have one message in common - use the product and you will become a beauty, goddess, sex object, success. I really hate these ads.

Watch commercial here..

Ponds 7-day age miracle product

March 22, 2007

So what is wrong with this picture?

The first time I watched the commercial by Pond’s, my eyes were pulled to watch as my mind quickly registered the words “miracle” while watching a husband suddenly pay special attention to his girlfriend or wife who were apparently using this age-miracle product. Then I heard the warning bells…. Ringggging in my head. Halt!

What’s a woman got to do, ha?

March 22, 2007

“Thank your grandmothers and mothers who have lived and paved the way for you ladies to have a better life out there.”

That’s something I said to a class some months ago. Y’know, the fun part about teaching is that sometimes you get engaged in this impromptu soliloquy where instant insights lead to sudden outbursts of authentic talk–”me” talking.
