electric mistress. |
i know most of my entries have to do with dating and other related topics but at least it's better than other man-hating ones or those that despise the women who get them. hehe.
due to my stupid car's tantrum last night i was forced to stay home and ponder my life - past, present and future.
past. having gone on several first dates in the past month, i noticed a redundant topic which is the who have you date/who were your exes conversation. but i suppose it's the only gauge we have to asses this virtual stranger in front of you gorging on the aperitif. Sometimes I get lazy to impart my personal info that I refer them to this blog. But when I do get into a good albeit inebriated state of mind, I’ll just mention their characteristic descriptions: a surgeon. An entrepreneur. A single dad. A politician. A peter pan. A writer. A comedian. A guitar player. A bass player. a banker. A ramp model. A film maker. A lost soul. And their common denominations are their boyish good looks, striking confidence, their innate ability to make the simplest things interesting, and their capacity to make me feel like a goddess.
present. There have been lots of snickers and snorts regarding the powers-that-be. We speak of the different attempts and efforts that both men and women exert to attract another. Some are so palpable and futile that the scent of desperation makes us whimper in pity or crack up in ridicule.
Tim Tayag writes in his column in Manual magazine about the rules presented by the movie Tao of Steve. 1. Eliminate desire to sleep with them. The more you want something, the more you won’t get it. Desperation has never been attractive, has it? 2. Be excellent. Show her or him an extraordinary skill that will ingrain itself into their brain, especially during lax hours of the work day where they need a good thought. You do know you’re special right? 3. Retreat. Because what retreats is pursued. Since back in the old days, women have known this. But have chosen to ignore it in recent times. So what’s a man to do? Use it. I don’t understand why the strengths of each gender have crossed over but I guess that’s how we’ve evolved. This advice was meant for men but it also applies to women but using semantics for difference. Women like to be chased but they also like mystery. Men like to chase but they still want mystery. Girls, even if you like the man don’t give them the guarantee that they don’t need to work for it. Then they probably won’t.
Those who say they hate playing the game, just don’t play it well. Or they’re just ignorant of the mechanics. It IS called a dating game, you know. It isn’t about pretending to be someone you’re not. It’s about saving something for the actual relationship that your date can look forward to.
future. I’m still pondering over my schedule for next week. Playing tennis MWF. Bass lessons on Tuesday where I’m going to learn and master Half-Life and Angel. Attempt to become a ham on stage and play again. Go to meetings for jobhunt. Hang with the munching monsters. Push through with some more first dates. Wake up each day excited and smiling.
my bass playing debut on stage in Capones last tuesday, 4 October, 2005. I know what you're thinking, i need to show my face and project better. but hey, i was more focused on not making a single mistake! haha. i am the electric mistress! more pics once Server sends them. thanks to Norby for taking the pic.
