i was looking at the table of contents of a book about philippine mythology when something caught my eye. out of curiosity, i checked it out. here's the story. hope you enjoy. i definitely did.



Origin of Homosexuality

There was a time when there were no homosexuals in the world. One day Christ and St. Peter were traveling from town to town teaching the people. At noon they came to a village. The sun being very hot, they stayed in a cottage to take a nap. They were roused by the noise made by people in the next house. Peter went to ask the neighbors not to make so much noise for they wanted to rest. Jesus and Peter then resumed their siesta.

After a few minutes they were again disturbed by the shouts of the neighbors. Peter once more went to the place of the carousal, drew his sword and and cut the heads of all the people he found. He then sheathed his sword and went back to the Master saying nothing about his deed. But everything was known to Jesus, who said, "Peter, creature of your impulses, what crime have you committed? When shall you fully learn to follow my precepts and example? Go, place the heads on the bodies again." Peter without a word, obeyed and hurriedly did what he had been told. In his haste, he stuck some female heads to male bodies and male heads to female bodies. This mistake of St. Peter explains the existence of homosexuals.

Writer's Block

i killed my prince this morning.

we dissected frogs today.

i had mixed feelings about it. a few months ago, i was excited to do it. yesterday, after thinking about it again (and after watching a video demonstrating the right way to cut open a frog), i felt.. disgusted.

i mean, the woman in the video was scraping the frog's muscles like mad. and the frog looked all slimy and all at the time.. at least, for me.

well this morning when we actually did the dissection, all the disgust i had been feeling the day before was replaced by pity. the frog's eyes seemed real round and all pleading-like (or maybe i was just hallucinating then, as i perhaps had breathed in too much ether and became woozy), and i felt so sorry for the poor thing, which was pinned down, helpless.

who are we to take away a frog's life? we are but humans, which in my opinion are no better than frogs or any other animal.

it's just unfair. while animals go through dissection and drug-testing which may result in mutations or the death of these animals, it is "unethical" to do those on living humans. it would make more sense to me if they do these dissections and experiments on already-dead animals.

then again, scientists wouldn't be able to know whether a certain medication could cure a disease or not, could they? but what i don't get is, why not let people be the guinea pigs? i mean, these cures are for humans anyway, and i'm almost sure that no other animal has the same biological anatomy as that of a person. the world's getting overpopulated by humans, anyway. so i'm thinking it would be fine if a few of us died. i'm aware that it's written somewhere that no man is supposed to take away the life of another, but why doesn't the rule apply for animals too? i mean, sure, animals do kill other animals for food. but that's how they are. that's necessary for their survival. though, i can't say the same for humans using animals for their experiments and all. it's just frustrating how people think they're superior to any other thing in this world.

and then, when a certain species becomes extinct, people would say they tried everything to make the species grow in number. but then why start killing and damaging animals in the first place?

how i wish there were dissectable and experimentable synthetic animals.


anyway, the dissection was successful. i did not shout or scream, i only cried inside.

teehee.

just wanna share a poem a friend and I did for english week a couple of months ago. enjoy!:)


A Better World


I was going to school
With my hand on my mom’s
When I saw an old man
Asking a lady for alms.


I took out a quarter
And started to approach him.
My mom pulled me away
And said, “What are you doing?”


“You can save that up,
To buy a lot of toys.
You’ll have a lot of fun
Playing with the other boys.”


I looked up at her
And did what I was told.
The day was extremely hot
But inside, I felt cold.


Now thinking about this,
I wonder what the world’s become.

When words of selfishness
Come from your own mom.


I wonder what it will be like
To live in a perfect place.
Sharing found everywhere,
A smile seen on every face.


I want to speak to all the people
To tell them what is happening.
I may be just a little kid,
But I know what I am seeing.


This world needs compassion,
This world needs care.
Some people are scared to try
To them I say, “Dare!”


I see a dirty and polluted world
Of war and hatred here and there.
Where greed and badness lurks about
And people hardly ever share.


I see a place of suffering
Where people die of hunger.
A place that’s full of misery
Where pain and hurt linger.


This world is veiled by darkness
But there might be a cure.
If people learn about giving
We'll see a better future.


I believe it is very possible
To make this world a better place
We just have to work together
And fill our lives with love and grace.



please comment. tell me what you think.

thank you. :)

i didn't know there are still people like this in the world today, but i had encountered one last friday so...

i was heading to school from my eating place, around lunch time. it was raining. i didn't have an umbrella with me, so i just ran into the rain across the street. but suddenly, i didn't feel water dropping on me anymore. when i looked up i saw a green umbrella over me and then a voice was saying, "kayong mga bata kayo, nagpapaulan lang.. tsk!(you children always let yourselves get wet)" when i looked over at my side, there was a yaya (i still don't know who) smiling at me, holding her umbrella over my head. all i could do was say my thanks and enter the school.

so... thank you, yaya. never have any stranger helped me like this before. you're one step to making this world a better place. :)

It's hard to be this cute.

sometimes it is just so hard to be so good-looking. people stare at me like they have never seen a girl before. sometimes, it’s as if their eyes might pop out or something. look, i know i’m cute and all, but it’s quite disturbing.

ok, i’m just kidding. but it IS hard to be good-looking. for example, people who like you start to stalk you, or worse, make false stories about going out with you. suddenly, you’re in a relationship you don’t remember getting into.

this is about what my sister heard on the radio last night.

as a gig, the DJs were asking people to text to them their secrets. this was pretty normal. they do that almost all the time. what was not normal is, a thirteen-year-old girl from our school texted that she is having a relationship with a teacher. according to the girl, they did “it” in the gym and in the teacher’s van. the girl even texted his REAL name and what his school was before he became a teacher.

first of all, kid, he doesn’t have a van. i’ve seen his car a lot of times in school, so, yeah. second, I may not know who you are, but it’s impossible that he will do “it” with a kid, let alone a student. i’m pretty sure he’d be aware that if people found out, he will lose his job and go to jail for sexually harassing a minor. third, do you have any idea what this might do to him??? if any of his colleagues heard that, he’d be in huge trouble. worse, if any person at all from the other chinese schools heard that, the not-so-bad reputation of our school will be ruined. we'll be as good as dead. and he’s still going to get fired. and your parents might send you to boot camp or something. WHAT WERE YOU THINKING??????

so you’re obsessed with your teacher. i don’t blame you, a lot of people think he’s totally hot. but do you think it’s best to pretend—and broadcast to the whole country—that you two have a relationship? it’s bad enough that you lied, but did you actually think people will believe that? i know there are actual happenings like this in other countries, but it’s highly impossible for that to happen here, let alone in our school.
