Mutual Faithfulness

I guess it would only be fair that if a person is faithful to another, then that other person would be faithful as well. If a person is faithful to me, I believe so that I will be too. As a matter of fact, I think it’s a must.

Then again, maybe I will be only so if I have the willingness to be faithful. If I can feel that the friendship or relationship isn’t worth it, then I probably won’t.

The Most Important Possession

Ice Breaker card reads: What is the most important possession in your house? Why?

Since food is a basic necessity, I would consider the refrigerator the most important possession in our house. It stores our food, making them last longer and more suitable for consumption.

For a moment, I was going to say “computer” as the answer to the Ice Breaker question, then I remembered that it doesn’t fall under the basic necessities in Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs.

The Feeling of Being Inadequate

We have our insecurities. I admit I have my own. They’re my personal demons I battle and sometimes I’m not at the winning end.

I admit that there are times when I felt really inadequate. When a guy a like chooses my friend over me, I get this feeling that I’m just not good enough for that guy. Sometimes I feel too that I am inadequate when I don’t do as well as I aim to when it comes to my academic life.

Everyday I battle my demons of insecurities. Every day I try to live in positivity.

1661 Most Significant Songs in My Life: S.O.S by Good Charlotte

“Is anybody listening?” I asked myself the same question during my early teenage years. “S.O.S” is among those songs which served as a cry for help.

The song became relatable during a time in my life when I was still trying to get past the resentment I felt towards my parents.

But now I’m past that stage in my life. I’m past asking for S.O.S.

American Dreams

I picked out an intriguing question from my deck of Ice Breaker cards. It reads: “What particular country in the world would you like to see? Why?”

Given an opportunity to travel the country, I would like to see the United States of America. I want to see the country not because it’s the picturesque country some people make it out to be, but I want to see the grime and grit, the REAL life there in that country. Although if you’re going to tell me that I would have to live, I believe I’m going to have to turn down that offer. If I’ll ever set foot on that country, it would only be under visiting purposes, not for immigration purposes.

I’d like to see the glam and dirt in the City of Angels and the City That Never Sleeps. I’d like to see for myself why what happens in Vegas truly has to stay in Vegas. I want to experience it all.
