*****************************************************************************

After years offline, mostly unintentional, and a great many experiences, I find myself somehow back. I guess that mood I put up so long ago was true after all.. odd to log back in after all this time and see a status of:

"BBL.. I promise."

Weird how it really came true. Kinda creepy I said that years ago, and here I am after all.

Now, I don't know if I am officially back or if it's just happenstance, but seeing as this is getting changed after all this time, it certainly seems so huh?

I recall I left because drama between several people I knew was getting so thick that by the time I got my computer working well enough to log on, it just seemed pointless. I enjoyed many of the people I knew here, but there were some people who got on that I knew in real life that made it hard to achieve much.

I don't know if was just that this site brought out the worst in them or what, but in light of that, I got to looking around and realized there were so many depressed, angry people online. And it got me thinking.. what was I doing with my time?

So I left, without a word to anyone who didn't know me off of EP. Not because I didn't want to tell most folks, but because I didn't want the pressure of letting certain problematic people know.. you see, I wanted the drama to end, not to follow me.

Yet, years later, I find myself returning.. funny how that works. Most the people I knew are prolly gone now, and I remember so little.. but in those quiet moments when I reflect on my past, EP has been there nagging at me.

Who knows what may yet happen?

For now, the wanderer has returned!

Nice Guys

----------------------------


This is a tribute to the nice guys. The nice guys that finish last, that never become more than friends, that endure hours of whining and bitching about what assholes guys are, while disproving the very point. This is dedicated to those guys who always provide a shoulder to lean on but restrain themselves to tentative hugs, those guys who hold open doors and give reassuring pats on the back and sit patiently outside the changing room at department stores. This is in honor of the guys that obligingly reiterate how cute/beautiful/smart/funny/sexy their female friends are at the appropriate moment, because they know most girls need that litany of support. This is in honor of the guys with open minds, with laid-back attitudes, with honest concern. This is in honor of the guys who respect a girl’s every facet, from her privacy to her theology to her clothing style.



This is for the guys who escort their drunk, bewildered female friends back from parties and never take advantage once they’re at her door, for the guys who accompany girls to bars as buffers against the rest of the creepy male population, for the guys who know a girl is fishing for compliments but give them out anyway, for the guys who always play by the rules in a game where the rules favor cheaters, for the guys who are accredited as boyfriend material but somehow don’t end up being boyfriends, for all the nice guys who are overlooked, underestimated, and unappreciated, for all the nice guys who are manipulated, misled, and unjustly abandoned, this is for you.



This is for that time she left 40 urgent messages on your cell phone, and when you called her back, she spent three hours painstakingly dissecting two sentences her boyfriend said to her over dinner. And even though you thought her boyfriend was a chump and a jerk, you assured her that it was all ok and she shouldn’t worry about it. This is for that time she interrupted the best killing spree you’d ever orchestrated in Halo2 to rant about a rumor that romantically linked her and the guy she thinks is the most repulsive person in the world. And even though you thought it was immature and you had nothing against the guy, you paused the game for two hours and helped her concoct a counter-rumor to spread around the floor. This is also for that time she didn’t have a date, so after numerous vows that there was nothing “serious” between the two of you, she dragged you to a party where you knew nobody, the beer was awful, and she flirted shamelessly with you, justifying each fit of reckless teasing by announcing to everyone: “oh, but we’re just friends!” And even though you were invited purely as a symbolic warm body for her ego, you went anyways. Because you’re nice like that.



The nice guys don’t often get credit where credit is due. And perhaps more disturbing, the nice guys don’t seem to get laid as often as they should. And I wish I could logically explain this trend, but I can’t. From what I have observed on campus and what I have learned from talking to friends at other schools and in the workplace, the only conclusion I can form is that many girls are just illogical, manipulative bitches. Many of them claim they just want to date a nice guy, but when presented with such a specimen, they say irrational, confusing things such as “oh, he’s too nice to date” or “he would be a good boyfriend but he’s not for me” or “he already puts up with so much from me, I couldn’t possibly ask him out!” or the most frustrating of all: “no, it would ruin our friendship.” Yet, they continue to lament the lack of datable men in the world, and they expect their too-nice-to-date male friends to sympathize and apologize for the men that are jerks.


Sorry, guys, girls like that are beyond my ability to fathom. I can’t figure out why the connection breaks down between what they say (I want a nice guy!) and what they do (I’m going to sleep with this complete ass now!). But one thing I can do, is say that the nice-guy-finishes-last phenomenon doesn’t last forever. There are definitely many girls who grow out of that train of thought and a few who were never that way to begin with that realize they should be dating the nice guys, not taking them for granted. The tricky part is finding those girls, and even trickier, finding the ones that are single.



So, until those girls are found, I propose a toast to all the nice guys. You know who you are, and I know you’re sick of hearing yourself described as ubiquitously nice. But the truth of the matter is, the world needs your patience in the department store, your holding open of doors, your party escorting services, your propensity to be a sucker for a pretty smile. For all the crazy, inane, absurd things you tolerate, for all the situations where you are the faceless, nameless hero, my accolades, my acknowledgement, and my gratitude go out to you. You do have credibility in this society, and your well deserved vindication is coming.












guys gotta remember this...
Article 1: Statement of Love: The Kiss

  Daniel and Jasmine

---------------------------------

If this doesn't touch you, you have no heart...


Daniel and Jasmine are sitting alone in the park one night..

Daniel: I guess we are the left overs in this world.

Jasmine: I think so... All of my friends have boyfriends and we seem like the only 2 people left in this world without any special person in our lives.

Daniel: Yup, I don't know what to do.

Jasmine: I know! We'll play a game.

Daniel: What game?

Jasmine: I'll be your girlfriend for 30 days, and you will be my boyfriend.

Daniel: That's a great plan! In fact, I don't have anything to do for the following weeks...



DAY 1: </b>
They watch their first movie and they both were touched by a romantic film.

<b> DAY 4: </b>
They went to the beach and had a picnic.. Daniel and Jasmine had some quality time together.

<b> DAY 12: </b>
Daniel invited Jasmine to a circus and they rode on a Horror House ride. Jasmine was scared and when she went to touch Daniel's hand, she touched someone else's hand by mistake. Daniel and her both laughed...

<b> DAY 15: </b>
They saw a fortune teller down the road and they asked for their future advice. The fortune teller said: "My darlings, Please don't waste the time of your life... spend the rest of your time together happily." Then tears flow out from the teller's eyes.

<b> DAY 20: </b>
Jasmine invited Daniel to go to the hill and they saw a meteor.. Jasmine mumbled something.

<b> DAY 28: </b>
They sat on the bus and because of a bumpy road Jasmine gave her first kiss to Daniel by accident.



<b> DAY 29: </b>
<b>11:37pm

Jasmine and Daniel sat in the park where they first decided to play this game...

Daniel: I'm tired Jasmine. Do you want any drinks? I'll buy you one.. I'll just go down the road.

Jasmine: Apple Juice, that's all.

Daniel: Wait for me..



20mins later... a stranger approaches Jasmine..

Stranger: Are you a friend of Daniel?

Jasmine: Why yes. What happened?

Stranger: A reckless drunken driver ran over Daniel, and he is critical condition in the hospital.


11:57pm
The doctor went out of the emergency room. He hands out an apple juice and a letter to Jasmine...

Doctor: We found this in Daniel's pocket.

Jasmine reads the letter and it says: </b>
Jasmine, these past few days, I realized you are a really cute girl and I am really falling for you. Your cherished. Smile, for you were everything when we played this game. Before this game ends, I would like you to be my girlfriend for the rest of my life... I love you Jasmine...

<b> <i>Jasmine crumples the paper and shouts: </b>
"Daniel! I don't want you to die. I love you. Remember that night when we saw a meteor, and I mumbled something? I mumbled a wish. I wished we'd be together forever and never end this game. Please don't leave me Daniel... I love you! You cannot do this to me!"

<b>Then the clock strikes 12

Daniel's heart stop pumping

THEN IT WAS THE 30TH DAY...

*************************************************

Always love your loved ones and show them how you feel before it is too late. You will never know when they will be gone from your embrace.. What if you were given a time to bestow petals of everlasting compassion and love to your loved ones?

Today is the day...
Love them while they are still here.
