BEWARE YOU UNDERAGE “BET-TERS”: Well, it’s the World Cup season now and of course you guys will want to earn some extra pocket money to perhaps buy a gift for your loved ones. You’re underage yet you are willing to take the risk of earning this extra bit. Perhaps you’ll get a friend to buy it; probably you choose to take the risk yourself due to the fact that you want to hide your bets. Okay, fine. Point taken. The thing is, two private bookies have been going round sabotaging underage teenagers who are betting on soccer.

Well, paradoxical it may seem, but apparently the bookies are having internal conflict due to competition maybe? It so happened that Willy the bookie let secret out of the bag in front of a group of underage teenagers to gain popularity. According to Willy, Cheongsam and is Jeejee were seen sucking up to Kingfisher. The alleged duo is still under strict scrutiny of Professor Jareth. One of the betters who placed his bets to Kingfisher was displeased when Kingfisher did not congratulate nor smile at him when he went to collect his winnings for the match between Australia and Italy yesterday.

Due to his cold, unexpressive face when he reluctantly gave the young better his winnings, the young better got provoked and decided to put up a silent protest in his blog. Soon after, Cheongsam and Jeejee came to know what was going on and reported the matter to Kingfisher and the young better was confronted upon the very next moment. He was made to remove the crude remarks and to put up an apology.

P.S. Although private bookies still allow you underage teenagers to place your bets, it’s important that you stay low on profile and not give yourself up for nothing.

From this news, another problem is picked up—the privacy given to bloggers. According to Professor Jareth of Humanities Maniversity of Spain (HMS), also an avid blogger, blogs are for free expression and not good impression. They don’t have to be perfectly B-E-A-utiful just to suck up to authority.

Bonkers Times also interviewed many people on the street and found out that more then 85% of the interviewees feel that Cheongsam and Jeejee should just be stoned to death for sabotaging, and that bloggers should have more privacy. After all, it is a personal blog. Websters’ Online Dictionary defines personal as something of or relating to a particular person; private: “Like their personal lives, women's history is fragmented, interrupted”. Keywords here: PRIVATE.

If you cannot change the world, change yourself. Smiling to that underage better won’t cost you your life, but being insulted will cost you more if comparison were to be made between the two. You’re just being a fool if you cannot take jokes. Come on, it’s 21st century in Coral Island. Mind you, the main GDP comes from casino revenues and if that’s the case, being a coral islander, shouldn’t you be more magnanimous?

Since it’s a PERSONAL blog you are drawing evidence from, one should bear in mind that you are infiltrating that person’s privact without proper permission. You choose to browse that blog and given a choice, you can choose not to view that blog. The bottomline is, take a good look at yourself in the mirror before commenting about others.

When i'm quiet and alone,
I'm is thinking how good you are, missing you.

When i'm lying on my bed,
I'm thinking deeply why i love you.

When i look at you in your eyes,
I'm trying to tell you how much i love you and how important you are.

When I answer "I'm Fine" after a while,
I'm not and feels hurt

When I keep asking you the same question,
I'm wondering why are you lying.

When I hug you while sleeping or lie on your shoulder,
I'm wishing that you belong to me forever.

When I call or want you to call everyday,
I miss you and want your attention.

When I want to see you everyday,
I care for you and want to know how are you today.

When I sms u everyday,
I want you to know that i'm fine.

When I say I love you,
I really mean it from the bottom of my heart.

When I say that I can't live without you,
I have made up my mind that you are my future.

When I say "I Miss You",
I want to see you immeditely.

When I hug you,
I'm hoping that time will stop at that point.

When I end my message with "Hugs",
I want you to know that i'm always by your side.

When I hold your hand,
I want to tell you that my heart has only enough room for you.

Beautiful...
I don't know
If I'm the one for you in this life
I can't help
Hearing my voice calling your name
Cuz when I'm
Trying so hard not to look in your eyes
Maybe I
Have fallen in love with you

Well tonight
Maybe this time I can hear you breathe
Its alive to see you smile
With those tears in your eyes
They may say
That you're just someone in this spinning world
In my heart
You're like the world to me

I can't so describe
How I'm feeling deep inside
So much more than I can say
With your touch it feels so right
Oh my, you're so near
All the time in this place
For I know in my heart
I'll never let you go
In this lifetime
Do you know why oh baby
Cus you're just so
Beautiful to me

Is it the right calling
Or just pure imagination on my part
With so much to consider
I can't help but to keep mum
You are so near
But yet so far
Will our heart beat together
Is something i very much wanna know
From me i give my heart
To you it'll always belong

Touch my hand; feel my heart
Hold me close and you'll find me
You'll find me
You're so beautiful to me ..

The 'X-Men' makes for an extremely wonderful start to the holidays. At least, it softens the frustrations that I feel from having my holiday plans botched when I could have been in complete control of it in the first place. I should have just stuck to my guns instead of being too considerate. Sometimes, I feel I'm so easily taken for a ride. Sometimes, I feel being considerate only brings more disappointment than happiness. At the end of the day, I find myself putting my plans on hold, or have it so badly skewed that it's too late to revisit the initial plan simply because I've wasted all the time putting it on hold. Imagine making all the effort for the goodness of not just me but those around me, but only to find this effort being taken for granted or have it brutally fired, so to speak, with remarks that are childish, non-committal and downright non-selfless. A lopsided deal. Where is the conscience and higher-consciousness?!


Some claim that it helps to please oneself before others. But to allow oneself to be caught up in the self reeks of nothing but pure selfishness. How could such value system be condoned? What if you see this trait in your charges? Does it warrant for a reaction? Re-education? Or is it better that things be left alone?


People say that the world is no place for idealists. But it scares me to think that it is a place for only pragmatists and realists. The former is cold, cut-throat and oftentimes superficial while the latter tends to be pessimistic and has greater tendency to cop-out.


Sure, life has its share of bitter pills to swallow, occasions to rise above and challenges to subdue. However, if these are taken simply at face-value, then perhaps, it is no wonder that we never will be able to see the layers of truths that remain hidden beneath these rubbles of common-saying like 'what to do? that's life'.


I believe life's much more satisfying and beautiful than that, and there will always be things to do. Thus, never mind the botched holiday plans, the text-message that reeks of complete rudeness,lack of awarenes on the meaning of team-spirit or appreciation and pre-emptive strikes that spell 'MINDGAMES'.


Reality and the world is created based on Ideas. Imagination. Inspiration. I'm sure I'll never run out of these elements to make myself happy and resonate this happiness to others. What does not kill only makes one grow stronger. Isn't that what being powerful is all about?


While there is still time.

Sa(me), much.


I want to be this; I want to be that. I want to be everything in the world. I'm not très fou, neither am I très beau. I just want to be me, and I hope you'll like it.
