Balwa Tooth Prowlers

Seriously, what is the deal with Blue Tooth?! Amazing how we’ve managed to take technology to a whole new level… a level probably not even thought of when this tool was invented! Leave it up to us to take an advancement and somehow alter it to fit the “flirting” needs of society.Allow me to describe what now has become a “normal situation”:

  1. The Prowler turns on their blue tooth the minute they walk into a restaurant/coffee shop, to scan all the blue tooth nicknames available
  2. Prowler then proceeds to scan the area for potential victims until one is spotted
  3. The search then commences: Prowler proceeds to randomly send a blue tooth message until he/she sees the Victim’s phone flash: EUREKA! Victim has been tagged.
  4. Communication commences. If victim does not take the bate, Prowler continues the search.

Honestly, do they think they’re being subtle? Do they think people can’t see the whole thing? They might as well just walk up to each other and start talking.

Ahh, but the best thing is when girls start complaining that ‘guys won’t leave them alone and stop sending them blue tooth messages.’ Hey, girls, TURN OFF YOUR BLUE TOOTH!

Ok, I’m done venting.

My Mistake

I see you looking through me, not at me. I stop and try to remember the past only to realize that things have always been this way. I listen to every word you say, every breath you take, every thought that crosses your mind. Yet, you barely hear me. You’re oblivious to my presence; or is it indifference?!Why is it that no matter what I see, it’s something else I believe? Why is it that my soul will not accept what my mind knows? It doesn’t take a genius to see what you’re doing. You’re not even pretending. You’re being you. You’ve said all you’ve had to say, both good and bad. Yet I choose to remember the good, using them as lifesavers to keep me afloat in this deep ocean of failed dreams.

I close my eyes and remember your kind words. So few and far between. I tell myself you will miss me when I’m gone. The truth is, I’m right here now and that never seemed to make a difference to you. Why would you notice when I’m gone, when you can’t even see that I’m here?

I try to force you out of my thoughts.. out of my dreams.. out of my illusions. You’ve never been more than a fantasy, a web so wonderfully spun by none other than my imagination. You’re my fault. You’re my mistake.

I open my eyes and see, you were never really ever here. You never really existed.

So then, why is it that I miss you?

New Post

The doc has advised me that it’s time for a new post. So what do people do when they can’t think of anything to write about? They ask questions!! Until I find a new topic (or someone kindly makes an interesting suggestion), here are two questions for you:


1. What’s one of the most important lessons you’ve learned in life?

2. What characteristic can you NOT stand/tolerate in people?

Procrastination Rocks!

I had a test on Thursday. One I was by no means prepared for. One I should’ve taken a long time ago, but kept procrastinating. It was finally time.What test, you ask? A physical assessment test. Yes, I decided to ASSESS how fit I was, like I needed an official opinion?!

I feel like I’ve spent the last million years running. Work, studies, family and social committments, etc. It was finally time to step back and take care of myself. Enough is enough.

I looked at the lady and said ‘let me make it easy for you, I’m going to fail this test.’ She laughed and said ‘I hear that a lot.’ Poor thing, little did she know what she was getting herself into.

The good news is: my blood pressure is excellent, my height perfect, and my endurance is good. The other stuff, none of your business! :@

Why am I posting this? To document my progress. Hopefully this will add enough pressure on me to actually make a change finally. Wish me luck! My gym bag’s in the car and tomorrow’s another day.

I think I can, I think I can, I think I can……
