1. I believe one of my worst habits is excessive thinking, even while sleeping.
2. My appetite’s similar to a 250lb wrestler. Don’t ask why; I dunno either.
3. A coffee and a red wine addict.
4. I’m not sick, anorexic nor bulimic just so you know. Just perfectly in shape, lolz. It's blessing. ;)
5. I love classical music.
6. I have a short term memory loss.
7. A frustrated painter (it’s not too late, I guess). And photographer.
8. Some of the things I’m most passionate about – watching sun set and full moon, cold weather, animes, psychiatry, coffee, reading, painting, drawings and piaintings and blue berry cheesescake
9. I sing (out loud) when I’m hungry, nervous and tired.
10. A human being, I suppose, who tries to live and fulfill her purpose.
11. And I’m currently going crazy thinking about this one guy.
Hmm, that’s 11, so scratch the last one.
During my kindergarten years, I live in a terror of white and black lady having long black silky hair and charming face with a shed of blood on their forehead. Although I haven’t seen any of them in real life, it lived in my wild and horrifying dreams and imaginations. Well, we all know for a fact that children are known for their mystical and creative imaginations and illusions, as for me, it’s more like hallucination. I used to watched horror movies back then with my playmates. But after that they can no longer see my anywhere. I would most probably in a catatonic state with all the horrifying scenes went flashing before my eyes again. Sort of a replay.
What I’m most scared of is this Philippine mythological creature called “Manananggal”. A witch-like person, usually a woman, with wild eyes, horrid laughs, with a very long elastic tongue and a bad hair day. She normally flies in the dark searching for victims and sucks blood and other internal organs of a man, usually a pregnant woman. Her favorite delicacies are children and babies. One distinct characteristic of this monster is that her upper torso can be detached from the lower part of her body enabling her to fly easily with her wings especially during full moon. Awooo!...
Today, I no longer live in fear though I’m not totally satisfied that this creatures doesn’t really exist. In fact, they do. And they can be seen everywhere. Only we can’t distinguish them that easy because they most probably evolved into a human form nowadays. They don’t eat humans anymore or take other people’s innards that they’ve suddenly develop a taste for Starbuck’s and Dunkin Donuts. Some are even vegetarians. They eat, talk and dress like any ordinary people, lurking around, mimicking every human’s action so they can mingle freely with others.
They often dress in a suit and tie or signature garments driving around with their Mercedes Benz, BMW and Ford in the Congress, Senate and even in Malacanang Palace. Some also like to pretend that they live a simpler life enabling themselves to socialize generously in the office, schools, meetings, and right in your own neighborhood.
“Manananggals” in our present time are modernized, with an elegant classy look and style, so they don’t just fly on top of your roof and take away something he/she wants. They will simply knock at your front door and talk. Often times, in front of the television, newspaper, billboards, on the internet. They are characterized as greedy, selfish, envious, double-faced, arrogant, and who’s only concern are their own desires, needs and interests.
They no longer steal vital organs, but often times the hopes and dreams of poor people, real people. Sometimes they even take away dignity and respect, take offenses and conceal truths. I don't want to elaborate that further. I'm no activist nor communist.
Salt works equally well against “manananggals” in the old times. It prevents itself from rejoining its other half of her body. A sprinkle of salt in her other half part will surely melt her away. At present time, these creatures uses salt for their own food, it’ll be useless to eliminate them with a sprinkle of it. How about bury them in a dozen sack of salt? Eh?
Kidding!!!
My name is Kenshin, nah, just a code name. Sometimes I wish my parents chose a manlier name like Alex, Andy, Levy or Kenshin perhaps. But my name’s unique, so am I. I’m in my mid 20’s and still single, just so you know.
What I do for a living is one question I refuse to answer, but hmm, I’m actually the one who imposed, right?...
I love reading books, though I finished only a few of them. I like to travel with people whom I don’t really know. Actually I don’t have a choice, I always travel alone… I like people but liking them is not really an easy part for me. Having sensible conversations with real people, that is what I miss nowadays.
I write when my mind’s half empty and half full. I’ve always wanted to spread or rub my brain off against a blank sheet of paper so to absorb and unload what my ten gallon head is holding. I sure hope by writing thru this blog will ease it. These all for now I guess.
Xiao!
