Lies of All Kinds

September 18, 2008 → The Top Ten Worst Lies You’ve Ever Told

1. Name withheld - Sometimes I tell my special someone that I enjoy sex. Sometimes it’s pleasurable, but often it’s simply painful. I tell him, “Kulang lang ako sa practice…”

2. Cheodosche - My mom found condoms in my brother’s bag. When she confronted him, he said: “Pinamigay sa school, sample.”

3. Name withheld - I once texted my crush pretending to be a different person. He ended up falling in love with this person I invented.

4. Nika Canton - I was running late when my boss called me and asked where I was. Even though I was still at home, I said I was already on EDSA. Then the neighbor’s rooster crowed. My boss said, “May manok na pala sa EDSA…”

5. Cutie Girl - I’ve lied so often about my age, that sometimes, even when I don’t mean to, I give my age as 26, even if I’m already 32.

6. Estong Cruz - One time I went to Tia Maria’s in Katipunan with a half-eaten siopao. When the waiter said there’s corkage fee for the siopao, without thinking, I shove the remaining siopao in my mouth and mumbled, “FIOFAO, anong FIOFAO? Walang FIOFAO?!?”

7. Syvels - I used to take money from my dad’s wallet all the time. One time, I took 20 pesos. Later, my dad angrily asked, “Sinong kumuha ng 50 pesos sa wallet ko?” I protested, “Bente lang kaya!” Huli.

8. Jelolaine - Every time I have sex with a guy, I tell him, “Pangalawa ka pa lang.” The truth is, I’ve had sex with 18 guys and counting.

9. Bilog - When my sister/dentist texted me where I was because I was late for my appointment, I said I was waiting for a taxi. She texted back, “Paano ka nag-aabang ng taxi eh online pa ang YM mo?”

10. No name - One time I made my dad sign a letter that said I was going to Batangas for a retreat but I was actually going to Tagaytay with my boyfriend. While in Tagaytay, my dad caught me with my boyfriend. BUT, I also caught him with his mistress, so quits lang kami.

11.Bob - One time tinawagan ako ng girlfriend ko asking who I was with. I told her I was with Mark. She said, “Kelan pa naging Mark si Karen? Lumingon ka sa likod mo.” There she was behind us, behind me and Karen, her best friend.

12.SC - Back in college, my sked was Tues-Thur, but I told my parents it was Mon-Fri para mas malaki ang baon.

13.Migz with a Z - My mom would always ask why I’m not texting back. I always tell her I’m just too busy studying. Truth is, i lost my phone months back.

14.No name - I told my then husband that he was the father of my child. I’m now with the real father, but I still haven’t told my daughter the truth that the man I’m with is her real father.

15.Urduja - My worst lies were the lies I told during confession! It was my first confession and I didn’t have any mortal sins, so I made up some.

16.Chinese Cowboy - My boss called and asked where I was. I was in a mall, but I told him that I was in my area. He said, “Good, I’m in your area, meet me in 10 minutes.” It was impossible because I was at least 30 minutes away from my area.

17.Specialist - Late for an exam, I wanted to tell my prof that it was because of a leaky faucet. I ended up saying, “Inasikaso ko pa yung tulo ko.”

18.Yñaki - When 4 classmates were late, they said the jeepney they were riding had a flat tire. He separated the 4 and asked them to write on a piece of paper the answer to this question: “Tell me, which tire was flat?”

19.SC - Student: “Na-holdap po ako!” Teacher: “Naku, anong nakuha sa ‘yo?” Student: “Homework ko po…”

20.No name - I told my classmates that I was still a virgin, when in fact I’ve appeared in 2 local gay porn films. My lie was exposed when 2 gay classmates recognized me.

21.Chloe - After coming home with bruises and a black eye, I tld my parents I took up boxing. Truth is, I was beaten up by my abusive boyfriend.

22.Specialist - I once told a crush that I saw her boyfriend with another girl. Ayun, nag-break after a week.

23.Gossipboy - That I’m a straight guy who’s grossed out by the gay lifestyle.

24.No name - Nahuli ako ng pinsan ko nang bigla siyang pumasok sa kwarto ko at kasalukuyan kong “pinapaligaya” ang isang brod ko sa frat. Ang sabi ko, nasugatan ang brod ko sa putots kaya sinisipsip ko lang yung dugo. Tumango lang ang pinsan ko at sinara ang pinto.

Grabbed from chicogarcia's blog, just wanna share this to you guys. this is just so timely, now that the truth has uncovered itself to my face..

Lies, black or white, are still lies. And damn,it hurts so much when a they come from someone you love the most. You love them so much that you can't hate them for lying to you, instead you hate the fact that you won't believe them anymore. The naked truth is always better than a best-dressed lie.

How I'd love to exchange lives with my facebook pet,abnormalite right now.=...........(

My Darkest Days

sorry for the long gap. many things happened, good and bad. mostly bad,i think. and i opt to not even attempt to share those hurtful things to you guys and to the whole blogging world. it's just between me, him, the few people who knew some of what happened and of course,God.. The end of March and start of April were the hardest days for me, and it came to a point where I just didn't want to feel anything. I was acting okay but deep inside,I was hurting..real real bad. But with the help of some people, i can say that i am okay now. thanks to them who showed genuine concern and love to us. Thanks to mylilsis, my kuyas and my ates,titamomy,kuya jacinto..for understanding,for forgiving, for keeping an open mind, for not judging, for all the support and love and prayers..



And to my Lord, You were beside me when I really didn’t know what to do,when only your words can comfort me,when only your embrace can soothe my pain. I was crushed and broken, empty and afraid to be alone. You hid me under your wings, held me in your loving arms. You made me feel how much you love me.. Though others may fail me, you remain faithful, steadfast and immovable as a rock. Father, help me to let go of my pain, teach me to forgive those who hurt me. This burden is something I shouldn’t carry in my heart. This trouble is not something I should trade away my peace for. I know that I have been done wrong, the things that have happened had been so unfair. I offer unto you my wounded heart, my broken heart. Let me not lose hope. Let me not cast away everything that’s good and beautiful in this life. Lord thank you for showing me how much love I can still give away because it is you who fills me with everything that I’ll ever need. You are the one who loves me truly, eternally, unconditionally. You are the one who has always been there for me and always will be there for me. You are my one true love. You are my forever. You are my strength and my peace and my joy. Surely in your presence Lord, I do not need anything more.



these songs helped me survive those days when i almost gave up.

Thank You Lord so much..

She So Loved iT!

i miss josh. he's in vizcaya again. he had to go there for bek's debut celeb yesterday. he said the event was successful. Bekah was so happy, she had so many visitors,she received lots of gifts,. (aw..i love gifts). I called Josh after the program and he passed the fon to bek. i was so touched when she said..

Bek: "Bigsis!! Thank You dun sa ginawa mo, I so loved it. Everybody Loved it"

all i said was "talaga?" then she said "ate bakit parang speechless ka ngayon?", "ha..wla lang.." hehe, but the truth is, Hay..saya saya ko, it just feels so nice to be appreciated. Never mind the puyats i endured for days to be able to finish the avp, not just finish it, but do it as beautifully as i possibly could. It was my first time to use adobe premiere and adobe after effects to do the video editing. i was just so happy coz i thought i wont be able to learn how to use these new softwares coz they were a loooot more complicated than windows movie maker, i just downloaded the trial versions and though it takes a while to complete the download process, man i tell you that was the easiest part. learning the general workflow of it was just frustrating. i told myself i wouldnt start anything yet unless i learn fully all the things that needs to be learned. The basic things are importing files, working with the timeline, animation, effects, exporting, among others. So I couldn't start anything yet on Bek's AVP til I know in myself that I could really do it from start to finish. I wouldn't want to just do the avp not knowing how to export it, it would be useless. I remember feeling so frustrated that I almost gave up and just opt use the windows movie maker instead since i was used to that, especially when Josh would ask if I have started the avp already...but i didnt give up on it. what i did was trial and error, and i couldn't stress enough how much errors i had before i did it right.

Hayzz thank God, i learned it just days before my deadline..i worked overnight from that day on,i knew i could do it. thanks to the video tutorials of adobe tv. they were very very helpful. thanks to my sisters for watching it and for reassuring me that It was good. Thanks to sweetie for his patience and his trust, i remember him saying, "ang oc mo talaga" coz i could've finished it sooner if I made it simpler using the easy-to-use video editor but i still chose to do it the hard way. What i like about him is he knows me so well that he knows the real feelings behind my actions, he knows what I want, he knows what i don't want. i just feel so loved and well taken cared of when im with him. I miss my sweetie.. i really miss him so much. he'll be back on tues. cant wait.


Thanks to my Creator for the artistic side of me. There could only be one reason why I was able to do it so byutipully, Because He sustained me. Thank You Lord.

My Beknats

Wasnt able to write anything on my blog for days because i was busy doing my lil sister's (Josh's youngest sister) debut avp for her bday celeb in Vizcaya. Too bad i cant go there to celebrate with them and meet Josh's family and friends. Hay I'm so excited for Beknat, i hope she'll like the avp and the tarp that we made with so much love just for her..



thanks to adobe magic.

after effects + premiere pro + photoshop + creativity = Wallah! Byutipul Masterpeesh op Mayn.



after 3sleepless nights..i was able to finish it.,though a little later than we expected. Josh and his mom almost missed the bus.



eto na mga dods..

benteng droga ang hiling ni itay

My dad hasn't been feeling well since last night and he's not feeling any better today. I knew he was really in pain a while ago when he opened his mouth and said..

Papa: "Mariel..."

Mariel: "pa?.. (silently that only my nosehairs could hear my voice)

Papa: "Mariel....lika sandali"

Mariel: "pa..baket? (a little louder but not too loud coz i was afraid he might answer "buldet")

Papa: "Mariel..!"

Mariel: "o papa, baket? (immediately went out of the room.ehe)

Papa: " Pabili moko sampung Alaxan at sampung Bioflu"

Mariel: ...

okay.. after 30 seconds of silence, I suddenly felt how much pain he was feeling.. and do you know that "feeling" when you are in doubt that what you are about to do is right.. that you kind of just stare for a while, suddenly your heartbeat skyrockets from 72bpm to 172bpm,(did i just say skyrockets? could this be writing task 1 of the ielts? hehe.) anyway, that's just how i felt. so..i tried to think of a logical reason for the skyrocketing of my heartbeat etc etc..
then i figured, I heard from somewhere that Bioflu is already a banned drug.

and, SAMPUNG alaxan, SAMPUNG bioflu? that was just...disturbing. (with images on my head of papa taking these droga all at the same time)

i still wasn't very sure, so i googled it.

read on guys..

BFAD warns against US-banned drugs

MANILA – The Philippine Bureau of Food and Drugs (BFAD) warned the public Friday against medici.nes that contain phenylpropanolamine (PPA), a nasal decongestant agent earlier banned by the US Food and Drugs Administration (FDA).The US FDA found in a study that PPA, which is used in some drugs for cold and flu, could cause hemorrhagic stroke among women and seizures in children.“My advise to the public is to read the label and make sure. Stay away from PPA-containing products,” BFAD Director Leticia Barbara Gutierrez said in a radio interview. She said her agency will release a list of brands containing PPA.Gutierrez said the US FDA is already taking steps to remove PPA from all drug products.She said their US counterpart had also requested all drug companies to “discontinue marketing products containing PPA.”Some drug manufacturing companies, however, have already reformulated their cold relief medicines and removed the PPA, Gutierrez said.She said some drug firms are now using another type of nasal decongestant called phenylephrine. “They removed the PP and replaced it with another nasal decongestant, phenylephrine,” she said.Senate Minority Leader Aquilino Pimentel Jr. on Thursday sent a letter to BFAD asking for the recall of such drugs. - PNSthat contain PPA after receiving reports about the US FDA’s study.“I understand certain drugs can be bought in the Philippines over the counter, such as Alkaseltzer, Dimetapp, Robitussin, Dexatrim, Bioflu, Neozep, Sinutab and Decolgen,” Pimentel said. - PNS

randomkwento: when i was in highschool (Assumption Pampanga), i would hear my classmates answer "buldet" when being asked "baket?".. it rhymes,right? (cause i know someone who insists it doesn't rhyme), its actually a kapampangan joke. kapilosopohan. la lang. haha.

quischun: nagpabili bako ng sampung bioflu at sampung alaxan para sa aking mahal na papa?
hansher: sampung alaxan na lang. (and tinry ko nang wag magimagine)


so there you go, i think this is worth blogging.
and please, pray for my papa to get well soon ha.

aaw.. this is the end of my blog and still am not sleepy, (chuper ekchayted ako sabi ni Josh) kase magkita na kame tomorrow. at magpartey with the tropa sa paresan ni Pams.

Godbless!


*"buldet"- or "buldit" is a kapampangan term for ass/buttocks/gluteus maximus.
*Pams"-alias of my sister,Jam. short for paminta (funnier representation of the moles on her face) She suggested Pepper,but I thought it was corny and i didnt like the sound of peps,thus the name pams. but pams is just my second choice. my first choice was actually peklat but she refused,coz she didnt like to be called peks. and arte. haha.

super proxy

My sister Bok and my cuz Bola modeling the FMCC shirts they bought last night. They had to wait for 4 hours just to be able to purchase these shirts. According to Bok's kwento,there were more than 300 people lined up in the FMCC store in Broadway waiting for their turn to buy their own Francis M. memorabilias. There were too many people that they had to ask them to form two lines, one for those who'll buy the One Love shirt and the other line for those who'll buy the other shirts. The One Love shirt is the one with Francis M's face on it, I assume this is their best seller. I lurve that shirt.. too bad i am jobless and painfully broke.

So there, request granted for you Bola and Bok, you are the stars of my blog tonight. Sana natuwa si Master Rapper sa pagmomodel nyo.

P.S. pahabol kwento: dahil sa sobrang pagod ni Bok sa haba ng pila sa Broadway, nagkwento sha at humiga na agad para matulog. bago sya matulog ay namili sya ng alarm tone at isa isa nya itong pinapatugtog, maya maya ay umakyat si ate phebe dito sa aming kwarto at sabay tingin kay bok "napagod oh",ika nito. sabay nagising si Bok at sabay tawa, "nakatulog nako, namimili palang ako ng alarm tone"

hahaha. nkakatawa un. tawa kme ng tawa kgbe. kso bkt gnun parang hndi n mashado nakakatawa nung tinype ko na. ah basta funny un, just take my word for it na lang.

hehe.

P.S. ulet: March 13, 2009 na talagang talagang talaga mamya pagkagising ko,(akala ko kase March 13 na ngayon eh) super excited na akech, uuwi na si Josh! aaaw.. i miss him so much. and another thing, lalabas na talaga results ni Bola sa IELTS. weeeh.. (inuman na to)

so basically, that's it. hay finally, my desire to sleep is kickin in.

8 Facts about Mariel

In the 8 facts about [your name here], you share 8 things that your readers don’t know about you.

Then at the end, you tag 8 other bloggers to keep the fun going.

– Each blogger must post these rules first.
– Each blogger starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
– Bloggers that are tagged need to write on their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.
– At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.– Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

"i tagged you sa 8 facts! ;) check out my blog na lang for the details.. :D momy e****, try mo yun ha. masaya yun. :)"

These are the exact words from the multiply comment I received from my katropang-nayntinayn Ris back in August 25,2007. And by the way, she calls me by my real name, which is something I obviously don't like to divulge on my blog right now..

my reaction was, what the heck is this? and so i did what she said on the comment, i paid a visit to her colorful blog and saw 8 funny facts about her. but i didn't instantly get the idea of tagging. i just read the 8 facts and then went on with whatever i was doing online that day. Until I saw the 5 facts about happyslip on youtube. She explained clearly enough how this "you are tagged" thing works in the blogging world. enough with the long intro, now here i am.. uber ready to keep the fun going by sharing 8 facts about me.. have fun reading!=)

Fact # 1

I DON'T EAT CHEESE

This is a fact my close friends already know about me. It tastes funny and I don't like it. Yah yah, I know what you're thinking. I've heard all those from my friends already. I'm not missing half of my life just because I don't eat pizza. Everyone's entitled to "not like" certain things okay. My mom doesn't eat beef which I think is a lot more weirder because she sells beef. haha. Oh and I remember, let me add this to my fact # 1, i don't eat cheese but i eat cheese cake, cheese curls, and i so love milk.=) hehehe.

Fact # 2

I USED TO BE A MEMBER OF PEN PEN DE SARAPEN

My parents wanted us to be exposed in this show to develop our talents and our self confidence. I together with my sister,Bok, went to rehearsals every Thursday.. we had to deal with all the kids who were so noisy and makulet., and not to mention the chismosa mommies they have with them. I guess the gossiping issue was the reason why we left penpen back then. My mataray mom couldn't stand them. hehe.. i've had some more tv appearances when i was a kid, watch out for that. i might write a blog about that some other time.=)



Fact # 3

I NEVER TRIED ANY KIND OF DRUG AND I NEVER INTEND TO DO SO

do i need to elaborate on this? say no to drugs!



Fact # 4

MUSIC IS MY PASSION

I love singing. I actually want to audition for Pinoy Dream Academy, who knows I might be the next Bugoy. wahehe! I also love dancing. After watching the movie "Center Stage", I just fell in love with dancing. And I am a big fan of G-Force. They never fail to give such a stellar performance eveytime. It's my dream to be one of the members of this dance group. They're simply great!


Fact # 5

I GOT WASTED ONLY ONCE IN MY LIFE (just yet)

I have been drunk a lot of times already but i got wasted only once, this thing happened after drinking GrandMatador which my penguin friend Maya brought to our party (out of her kindness). hehe. She claimed that she bought it because they sold it for a very cheap price from somewhere. This was during our get together party. Good thing I was in my territory and I was with the most trusted friends of mine, and of course Josh was there. To cut the long story short, I ended up throwing up so hard that it felt like all my internal organs were down on the toilet bowl already but i still felt so dizzy and still want to throw up some more. It felt so bad that I never wanted to drink alcohol anymore. But of course I've gotten over that feeling already. If you know what I mean. hehe!



Fact # 6

I WENT TO PROM ONLY ONCE

Normally, one should be able to attend the prom twice, first during your junior year and second during your senior year, but unfortunately for me, i was able to attend only once. I happened to be in the unlucky batch wherein they had to cancel the prom because the gym where they usually hold the prom was under construction. Is that even legal?? Don't they realize how big it is for us to be able to attend that special night! Argh. okay, i know that was like 6 years ago, i just felt like ranting. churi churi.



Fact # 7

I AM SUCH A BAD GIRL, I USED TO MAKE "TAKAS" JUST TO SEE SOMEONE WHO MY PARENTS HATED SO MUCH

i could've said 'i used to be such a bad girl', but i didn't because i think i still am a bad girl in some other ways. haha. my parents suffered a lot of headaches because of me just because of those "creatures" who I thought were good for me. Its only after some time that I realized how unworthy they are of the all the love I gave to them. And now i regret how sad I made my parents feel that time.

Fact # 8

I AM TAKEN.

i am taken,for good. i am deeply and bare-boned in love with Josh, my sweetie.

So there, I hope you enjoyed my 8 facts!=)

Now I'm tagging the following peeps:

1.timipots, my penguin fwend

2.mayapots, my penguin fwend

3.iyapots, my penguin fwend

4.te phebe, my ate

5.frances, my bes

6.kiko, my koya

7.jem, my pardzy

8.josh, my super lovable sweetie

looking forward to reading your 8 facts!=)

Godbless!

i'm officially starting my blog. (March 10, 2009 at 11:00pm)

I spent half an hour thinking what to write on my first blog entry, thinking this is the first one then it might as well be special or extraordinary.. But! I realized I just wasted half an hour when on second thought, I could just write whatever it is on my mind right this very moment (oh did i just waste another second for thinking twice? hehe)

i had these diaries (yes plural) back in gradeschool, i cannot exactly remember how i learned about this 'diary' thingy but what i remember is that i just find it cool to own one. It was a new thing for me back then having this shiny red notebook that i only see every night when it is time to write on it. I thought it was so exciting, just the idea of keeping a journal of my personal secrets, which i regret now because I ended up letting my sisters and even my mom know when they secretly read my diaries. uuurgh..

The good thing is, my secrets back then were not so juicy as they are right now. haha!

So,why am I starting a blog?

I can't resist the urge to do so that's why.

Seriously, I wanted to do this for a lot of reasons.

reason no.1:
I LOVE TO REMINISCE.
Right this very moment, I am sitting on a couch at our living room with my laptop literally on my lap. (hehe. that sounds funny and redundant.), my tita is sleeping in front of me, everybody else,i think, is asleep already,my boyfriend isn't texting me, i assume he's dreaming about me right now. nyehehe. The point is, who knows where i will be on March 10, 2010 right? A lot of things can happen in 365 days. Who knows, maybe I'll be in Australia then with Josh on my side as I write my blog for that day. aaaw! I'd love to remind myself of what i was then so I could appreciate what i am now. This blog will do that for me.

reason no. 2:
FOR YOU TO KNOW MORE ABOUT ME
When I see an old friend, I don't come to them to ask them how they've been just like what everybody else would do. And I am not being rude, it's just that I am shy, I think. I feel uncomfortable when talking to someone I haven't been talking to for a quite a while already. I am just way better at writing than talking (the reason why I think I suck at hosting). Updating my friends and letting them know more about me, this blog would help me with that, I hope. hehe.

reason no. 3:
FOR ME TO KNOW MORE ABOUT MYSELF
I realized that I get to know more about myself when I write because I surprisingly learn stuff about myself when I write on a journal, why? because this is the time when I think about myself, how i feel about certain things, what's my stand on a particular issue etc.. If there's one person I'd love to know more and more each day, that'll definitely be ME!

reason no. 4:
I NEED A SPACE FOR MYSELF
I just need a space to write anything on my mind. Some place I can freely say whatever I want. period.

reason no. 5:
SO THAT WHEN I DIE, YOU WON'T MISS ME TOO MUCH
Sounds morbid? hehe. After reading Francis Magalona's blogs who passed away days ago, I thought this could be of help to my loved ones when I pass away. Right now, I am 22 years old. Only God knows when my time to leave this world would be and I am not going to wait for my doctor to say I only have 8 more months to live just to start documenting my beautiful experiences here on Earth. I am starting NOW and I hope when it is already my time to leave this world, my loved ones would be happy knowing I lived my life fully and happily.=)

And maybe there are more good reasons than that but all of these are reason enough to start right now. more blogs to go.

goodnight!
