1. So congratulations, you've won the most beautiful girl in the room award. And the prize is a night with me
omg, this was so corny. And yes, i did hear this being used before. (and no, it was not by me, lol).

2. Bond. James Bond.
--->yes, this was actually used. LOL

So provide a list of pick up lines (corny, hilarious, romantic[is that possible]) that you've heard!

Ready, Set, Go!

Did you really, GEC?

Oh i think it's quite good to have intellectual discourse and at the same time, sensual chit-chats.
You get the whole kitten-kaboodle. (spelling?)
oh who cares. lol.

Cheers,

Hahaha!

LoL!

GRRRRRRRRR!
Shall we add hair ripping and biting to this equation?

O my, i sound like a masochist.


LOL

but of course, she can't have enough of that.

Satiate her heart,

Feels good doesn't it?

My younger brother,

How do I hear these stories that you have been hit by cupid's dastardly arrow.
Oh yes, I did hear this from your beloved older sister, Lorraine, who tells her Kuya Bran these news.

My dear brother, I am entertained in hearing this for it is evident of the Lucino's innate ability to fall in love, so quickly, yet so passionately.

All I ask and require that you do, my beloved younger brother, heart of my hearts, to focus on your studies first. It is okay to flirt around, but don't let it consume your mind. For you know how much it affected me when I was your age. Learn from my misfortunes, and subscribe to discretion and control.

But I know that you will be able in your decisions and actions.
Practice discretion, my dear sibling.
Guard your heart, make sure she feels the same.
Guard your heart.

I do miss you terribly, Don Rico.
I shall see you soon enough in December.
Then your older brother shall expect to be greeted with kisses and hugs from his younger sibling.

Do take care of yourself.

LOVE
Kuya

Do take pictures of the trees, glace.

Take her boating/kayaking to see the color changes.
romantic--perfect for a kiss.

Oh very nice, how is your pond that you were building? Have you placed fishes inside yet?

I assume now, the maple tree leaves are changing beautifully.

Good to hear all is well with you.

Another love of my life is my own mother.

For no one can compare to my own mother.
None.

The first woman in my life will always be, my very own, Mom.

hahaha, that I cannot promise on my end.

Cheers, glace.

How is Canada these days?

And by the way, don't think that I did not see those gentlemen flirting with you in our last date.
Smiling as I drank my Sauvignon Blanc, twirling it as I rubbed my ring finger on the edge of the wine glass,
with my peripherals focused on you.

Those gentlemen should seriously have had considered the fact that we were having dinner together,
ah, but nonetheless, it is nothing.

For they do not compare.
You are right, my sweet, I must control these feelings.
For you see, I want you all the more, all the more and it ravages my thoughts,
for I must control these passionate tempestuous feelings.

My love, why did you allow me to have these feelings.
Sometimes I wonder if I should have pursued this with you,
for you have opened the doors to my heart and soul.

I ask thee, my sweet, do not abuse it,
for it has been abused before.

I would do anything for you...


Passionately,
A.L.L

Have you not answered my calls?
I have kept my cell off, btw, because I need to study.
I can only have exchanges with you, my dear lady, limited only to weekends now.
For exam week looms in 2 weeks.

You and I are dangerous.
Dangerous combination.

Wait for me.
Want me all the more.
Hunger for me, and I shall do the same.


Wait for me,
Lorenzo

lol!

One thing that I have taught my love is the ability to endure pain.
For you see, friend, I am a biter. As in teeth sinking biting. he he he.
It adds passion into the sensual life.

Enjoy, glacier, enjoy.
Remember, in moderation ra lagi.
No more than 6 times a day, because well, it can drain a man.


LOL

My facial hair style, thus far:

Masculine yet trimmed.



Intense, lol.

I have 2 classmates; one an Arab and the other an Indian, who questioned the inability of the Asian man to grow a beard. I found it quite hilarious. So i told them that I would defeat them both in a beard-growing contest. They scoffed. So I pledged in the contest.

Rule was: 2 weeks time, no one trim anything, let it grow, whoever had the thickest, longest beard grown in 2 weeks time wins.

I defeated them in this beard growing contest and with it, the idiotic stereotype that Asian men cannot grow facial hair.

Right now?

A well-trimmed beard.
Thick and black.

Love it.

Of course!

You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection.
You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive.
You have the classic "Type A" personality.

You are relaxed, chill, and very likely to go with the flow.
You are light hearted and accepting. You don't get worked up easily.
Well adjusted and incredibly happy, many people wonder what your secret to life is.

You are full of energy. You are spirited and boisterous.
You are bold and daring. You are willing to do some pretty outrageous things.
Your high energy sometimes gets you in trouble. You can have a pretty bad temper at times.

You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something.
You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense.
You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun.

You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people.
You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts.
You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals.

You are balanced, orderly, and organized. You like your ducks in a row.
You are powerful and competent, especially in the workplace.
People can see you as stubborn and headstrong. You definitely have a dominant personality.

You are well rounded, with a complete perspective on life.
You are solid and dependable. You are loyal, and people can count on you.
At times, you can be a bit too serious. You tend to put too much pressure on yourself.

Hmmm, quite accurate.

Time flies so fast. I was still in Thailand when Aya left us a year ago, less than a week before my birthday. I still remember that day how I wept like a child in my room for an hour, missing a loving friend who had spent so much time with me through YM and phone calls long before tubagbohol.com was born. I was still grieving over the death of my father, and then Aya's death came and it was another tsunami of pain in my life.

On the eve of her first death anniversary, finally nagkakita mi ni LanggamTamsi (Ate Sol) who came all the way from Australia. She stayed in Flower Beach Resort in Virgen, Anda, with Lorie, another intimate friend of Aya. Adto pa ko kabalo na Aya and Ate Sol nagkahimamat sa Internet, and their friendship was nurtured through tubagbohol and andabohol.org. I thought na they grew up together. It was amazing to have such kind of closeness between Aya and Ate Sol, two total strangers who had never met before until they met in Cebu in 2008.

The next day, nagkita napud mi ni Ate Sol and Lorie didto sa balay ni Beding Amplayo, probably the oldest woman in Anda today. She is 96 years old. Close relative ni Ate Sol. Then we proceeded to Candabong sa balay ni Aya where she grew up. A day before, Ate Sol and Lorie facilitated the gift-giving for the elderly of the barangay. It was Aya's dream to reach out the elderly of her barangay. Ug nahatagan ug katomanan kadtong maong pangandoy pinaagi sa tabang sa mga kahigalaan sa tubagbohol ug sa pag-facilitate ni Ate Sol and Lorie.

Meeting Ate Sol for the first time was such a blessing. Dili ka mataha niya despite the fact na she has been living in Australia for decades. I thought she's 40 plus. Dili diay. She's ___ years old na diay. Definitely a humble woman possessing a bit of shyness in her soul, Ate Sol carries the kind of calm, generous, welcoming and friendly personality nga mao poy personality ni Aya.

Bisan sa kanubo sa among panag-uban, daghan na ko ug nahibaw-an nga mga maayong hiyas sa pagkatawo ni Ate Sol. Matod pa niya, virtual kaluha daw sila ni Aya.

Naa pa sa Cebu si Ate Sol karon. Pictures will be posted soon sa among panagkita diri. Let's thank God for giving us the opportunity to honor the memory of our beloved friend Aya whose gift of friendship that she generously shared with us will remain in our hearts forever.

Thank you for updating us on this, Mike.
With an open heart,
Bran

I cannot hhelp but think of you today.
It is as if you are here with me again, brother.
I feel you around me, I cannot explain it.

Perhaps it is because your death anniversary is coming close.
Rob, I pray you are at peace.
Be at peace, now, Robert.

A Grandfather means so many things…
An understanding heart,
A source of strength and support
Right from the very start.
A constant readiness to help
in a kind and thoughtful way.
With encouragement and forgiveness
No matter what comes your way.
A special generosity and always affection, too
A Grandfather means so many things
When he’s a man like you…

Dear Lord, here lie in their last rest,
the boys and girls,
the men and women that worked on the land.
They knew the meaning of hard work.
They knew the joy and peace that is the product of labour.
Now we trust they know the peace and happiness
of everlasting life with You.

They watched the sun rise often,
winter and summer,
over these hills and fields.
They worked hard by its light,
and turned willingly to their rest at its setting.
Now they walk in the light of a Sun
that knows no setting.
Lord, if they are still in the waiting room of heaven,
in purgatory,
bring them speedily to the light of Your peace
and the happiness of Your presence.

These men and women all their lives long
laboured to supply the food and drink necessary
to sustain human life.
Now, or soon,
they enjoy in all its fullness the life that You, Lord,
came down to earth to give men,
and to give more abundantly.

Dear Lord, bless us who labour now in the fields and hills
where these dear dead have worked.
Grant that we may remember them with charity and kindness,
walking reverently in the ways that they have left behind them.
Grant, too, that we may finally meet these men and women,
these boys and girls,
in the eternal mansions that You are even now preparing
for us.

Amen.

Glacier, try biting your woman next time.

Biting helps

I disagree with this thread because my own woman is beautiful (lethally) and yet is very faithful.

Faithful to the extreme that she watches my every movement.

Do you know how a turn on that is? To have a woman that is jealous when you talk to another girl?

Baby, baby, baby...

hahaha, like: GRRRRRRRRR, YAAAA, etc etc.

Depends on the sexual creativity,primality of the woman in heat.

Quote from: Ginger on January 15, 2009, 05:41:19 AM
New study shows women play on their attractiveness whenever opportunity arises

         

While the latest study made on the faithfulness of beautiful women as opposed to that of average looking ones is no groundbreaking discovery, it does help to finally settle the matter. Gorgeous women are not made to be loyal, and it’s not something that they can do to help it, as the research has showed.

It’s all in the hormones, scientists say, and not in the way a woman was raised or the values she upholds. More specifically, it’s in the level of oestrogen that a woman’s fidelity is to be found, as the study has showed that those with high levels of it are more likely to be unsatisfied with their current partner, therefore more prone to cheat on them when the opportunity arises. Coincidentally, these women are also very good looking, scientists pointed out.

Being beautiful means, in turn, more potential mates, which makes women “play on their desirability to snare the best mates,” say the researchers as quoted by the Daily Mail. Their standards for what they want from a partner are also highly influenced by them being good looking, which translates into not being able to come across a person to meet those standards, which makes them move from partner to partner.

“Physically attractive women may not only have more alternatives but also high standards that are difficult to satisfy. Accordingly, they have fewer reasons to be committed to any particular partner if higher quality potential mates are available.” Dr. Kristina Durante pointed out for the aforementioned publication. Their cheating is, thus, not reason for opprobrium for being a spur of the moment thing, but simply them acting as their very nature dictates.

The same study also revealed that, while attractive women are admittedly the “most unsatisfied with their lot,” they will also choose a long-term relationship instead of brief flings â€" still, nothing will stop them from moving on to another partner when something better comes up. “Without necessarily being consciously aware of their motives, highly attractive women are probably able to capitalize on their desirability and continually acquire valuable resources and a higher quality long-term mate by trading-up when the opportunity arises.” the researchers explained.

I'm the man from Imperial Manila, but my mother hails from Burgos, Southern Leyte. I have been in Leyte when I was 6 y.o. and stayed there for about a year. Sa Leyte ako nag pre-school that's why kasabot ako ng bisaya pero jutay-jutay lang, hehehe, pero hirap makapag sinulti, kadalasan, wrong grammar ang bisaya ko, (trying hard)

Small world, my brother. We share true blood!

I am in your boat.

My mother and her entire continuum hails from Valencia, Bohol, but my father of the Lucino-Ebuenga Dynasty hails from Southern Leyte. The Lucinos hail originally from Pintuyan of Southern Leyte, and my paternal grandmother is part of the Ebuenga Clan, who hails from Burgos, Southern Leyte. Though they had relatives and ancestors from Bohol, and some migrated to Bohol.

I am by blood, a Leyteno-Bolanon. The blood of the waray also runs in my veins. Isug jamo.

Im a member of other networking groups but I must say that people here in TB esp. boholanons are hospitable (manay tess, grazie) and very intellectual; like bro mike, bennylene, lorenzo. These are something I can't find in other networking groups, frankly speaking, medyo mababaw and walang sense ang mga threads. Kaya eto, trying to learn your dialect and hopefully, someday I can converse with all of u guys fluently para no need na for manay tess to translate for me, hahaha

Gener,

It is an honor, truly, an honor to read your postings, your articles, and your personal messages in this web forum.
One phrase describes your postings, my friend: Wisdom of God.

I mean that.

Glad to have you part of this powerful forum. God Bless.


Lorenzo.

Sir Bugsay,
pasalamat jud ko sa Ginoo naka anhi mi tanan, sa grace of God.
Luuy pood lagi, bai, kai i was so very close to my Lola Nating and Lolo Ciano when bata pa ko. On weekly basis mo adto sila sa among balay kai mo duwa sila namo. Mo adto pood mi sa ilang balay kai ma mingaw man mi nila!

When it came to leaving Phils in 1991, emotional jamo para nako.
Hilak ko kaayo kai di na ko maka kita sa ahong Lolo ug Lola.

Ahong Lola Nating i remember what she said to me, 5 years pa ko, 2 days before we left phils.
She said to me, "Ondoy, Ayaw jud kalimtan mi ninyo ha? Ajaw lalimtan imung Lolo Ciano ug ako. Pinangga ka namo, Doy. Be good to your mom and dad. Ampo kanunay, Doy. Ampo kanunay."

Lola had tears rolling down her face.
She was wearing her red dress, with her shoes.
My beautiful and loving grandmother. Mrs. Fortunata Tan Salvo.
The mother of my mommy.


It was with a weeping heart, bai, that I went back home in 1998 for the funeral of my Lola Nating.
My mind was filled with her memories.
The sound of her voice and her laughter.
Lola nating...mingaw ko nimo!

All i have of her is my memories. and the stories of friends and family members of her.
Beautiful!


GOD BLESS!

Mao lagi bai bugsay! sus marihosep, paspas ra jud ning panahona.

I still remember, sir, when I was 5 years old ning bisita ko sa balay sa amiga sa ahong lola. The wife of Dr. Lim. Best friends man to sila sa una when buhi pa to sila duha. he he he.
I remember it kai mo ininsik man to ahong Lola Nating. Cantonese Chinese man ahong lola gud!

Mo ingoon to ang asawa ni Dr. Lim, "Hoy Shang! Shang!"
And mo return pood to si Lola Nating in return in Chinese..hahaha naka limut na ko.
Lola would take me with her, my hand in her hand, and mo lakaw pood ko.
Gi servan pood ko ug pandesal ug coke. he he he paborito nako sa una.

And now recently, ning bista ko sa balay ni Dr. Owen Chieu (iyang asawa taga Lim Family sa Valencia). Si Dr. Owen Chieu is my maninoy he he he.

This past Dec. 2008 ning adto mi sa vigil para sa BLESSED SANTO NINO, and ning ingoon sija nako, "Sus marihosep, Doy Bran, daku naman jud ka!" hahaha, can you believe he still remembered me as a 4-5 year old when he usd to carry me, now daku na kono. maka katawa pood ta ba. maka lingaw-lingaw ka ma lipay pood ko that naka hinumdum pood ang mga tawo sa old times.

My ears are always attentive when they start talking about my Lola and Lolo. Because I always want to know more about them..the things they said, did, etc etc in life.

Bai Bugsay, naka kita pood ka sa ahong Lola? Og ahong Lolo?
Naka sulti pood ka nila or wa jud?

Gusto pood ko maka hear ang stories sa unang panahaon when na buhi pa si Lola Nating nako.
Sure ko naka kita ka sa ahong lola. Kai Insik man to sija! hahaha very lively to si Lola Nating uy.


haha maka lingaw gyud!

haha a mao ba, lingaw pood. Wa diay maka kalimot ang tawo no? Ignan to nako ahong mama when mo balik ko sa winter break. lol!

Mao lagi, sus, time does pass by no? Kai si mom 23 or 24 pa man to sija sa adto sigoro.
Karon, ako naman 24 years old. lol!

Pas pas ra jud ang panahon, bai!

I prefer Coca Cola.

Kana mai lami!

O, municipal RN man ahong Mama sa unang panahon.

Kaila diay ka sa ahong pamilya, bai? Unsa man imung apelido?

hahahaha! Bai Bugsay, okay ra man uy!
Bisaya bitaw pood ta ug nawong. Bisaya sa dugo.


Sige ha, my regards to your family!

Bai Bugsay, pasensya na lang ha sige mo binisaya na lang ko (sorry lang if maka mistake ko sa binisaya kai weak jamo ko sa binisaya)

Mao lagi tinuud bitaw imung gi sinultihan nga dagko ipa gastos sa pamilya kai mao man jud na ang buhay.
Filled with so many surprises and unexpected circumstances.
Mo gastos ta sa eskwela sa mga bata, sa colehiyo, ug ang plete ug mo abroad pood sila, mao lagi. Gastos pood ta sa medical expenses sa pamilya ug ma sakit sila lagi.

Mao lagi importante mo save ang tawo sa ijang sweldo kai naa man jud good and bad times para nato ug sa atong pamilya, mao na ma ready man jud ta, financially, to lend a helping hand.
----

Para nako, i subscribe to the notion of : living within one's means.
Spending more than what one can afford is, in my opinion, very careless, and dangerous.
Ug naay kwarta ang tawo, okay man mo gastos ug extra-extra, new car, new dress etc, so long as naa na sa financial means.

Ug tawo naay sweldo ug $6,000 a month, i save pood ang $3,000. And the other half ready to be spent appropriately. By 1 year time, maka save na ang tawo ug $36,000. In three years time, over $100,000 saved in the bank. Capital na. Then can be used for investment.


This is what was told to me by my Lola Nating.
Mao lagi daghan to sija'g kwarta sa una kai insik man gud.
Pero tinuud man ang ilang pilosopiyo: Save your money, better to save than to spend. When you save, you have. When you spend, you have not.

he he he

Sige, regards!

As for me:

It is ludacris for anyone to drink to get drunk or to smoke.
Personal biase and prejudice in my part.

I have friends who are alcoholics who spend close to $200 a week on drinks.
Thats equivalent to $800 a month.
Equivalent to $9,600 a year. Wasted.

You loose money and at the same time develop fatty hepatic liver, with reduced liver enzymes, and the increased risk of developing liver cancer.

Lorenzo.

Bugsay,

The key to economic security and financial stability, despite one's profession, is: Financial appropriation.
If person X gets paid so much, he should take half of his salary and save it. It must not be touched. At all. The other half shall be used, appropriately.

How say person X was an engineer in Saudi, getting paid $2,000 a month.
In 5 months time, Engineer X would have saved $5,000; untouched. With more saved in his checking acount from the unused appropriated half. Right?

Now lets say after 2 years, time, Engineer X would have already saved $24,000. Untouched, with interests growing. Amazing eh?

Now after 4 years time, Engineer X would have saved close to $48,000. Untouched.
Very nice investment.

----

It is what I call living by one's means and fiscal conservative measure.
It is easy to spend money, and see it blown away.
It's harder to save finance, but much sweeter to see how much God has granted you through hard work and guarded sensibilities.


Lorenzo.

What a nice plan Lorenz.

Good luck!

Thank You, Friend.
Looking at the present situation, it is only logical.
We are yet still young. Job is 23, Albert is 23 and I am 24. With ample networking in medical pillars, we need to facilitate a business plan and blue print, acquire investment through capital downpayment. Purchasing land and establishing political relations with the government in that particular land will be of optimum prerogative. That is why I am targetting either Cebu-Bohol-Ilongo because of our family relations and ties. Land is no problem for me because my family owns hectars of land in Bohol.

In point of view lang, I do not think I want to work as a clinician in the United States all my life. For some time, yes.

But my heart has always longed to go back to The Visayas.

My heart will always be in Cebu-Bohol.

Cebu is the 2nd largest city in the entire RP, and the fastest growing economy in the entire country, and Bohol also a growing economic power, and voted one of the most peaceful provinces in the entire RP. Resources are available, it now requires time and capital for the acquisition of the goal.

Fortunately, my friends and I are not the only ones that dream of going back to the Philippines and setting up a practice back home or establishing a hospital. I have never settled for 'small things' or little things.
If I will go back to open a clinic in Philippines, it will not be a small clinic. It will be a large hospital, with western and philippine trained physicians working on a daily basis providing the best medical care for the people.

Investment and planning, must be acquired. Fortunately, time is in our side.


Thanks.

We go to school to get education (respective on what one studies), and upon graduation, land on a job to augment and facilitate lifestyle and cost of living (for self and for family).

The key to this is contentedness. Being satisfied in what you do, and how much you get paid for what you do, or acquisition of better salary.

When one starts to compare one's lifestyle with others say, in a different profession, and wishes and longs for what that other person has, that is where things start: Jealousy, malcontent, envy, sadness.

So in the end, be satisfied in what you do. Do the best job in your profession, and you'll be damn fine in whatever it is (engineering, teaching, pharmacy, construction, art, medicine, nursing, etc)


Forward!

Anna, right on! Right on!

I am also experimenting with a career that will allow me to work and spend most of my time with my family in the Philippines, travelling abroad only to do marketing and get jobs and projects. One has to be creative with his chosen career to do this. In my field, which is translation and marketing, all I need is a good communication network--broadband internet and telephone system--which is the backbone of the Business Process Outsourcing industry.  As my timetable for the launch of a Philippine base draws near, I have to speed up my study of low-cost communication technology and cement my network ties.

Excellent to hear the progress of your plans, Mr. Benne. I pray that it shall be accomplished in due time, by Grace of the Lord God. Carry on!

As for myself, I have already begun networking with colleagues. As medical interns, I have been able to form close friendships with two Filipino brothers, Job and Albert, both of whom sing with me in church choir. We have discussed this heavily--the aspect of starting a clinic in the philippines, not a small clinic, but a substantial medical clinic/hospital with western technology, and pooling western resources into this clinic with right funding/investment.

All three of us are a product of the Filipino medical brain drain. As our parents are in the medical field (medicine/nursing).

The three of us, as 2nd year medical interns, share the concern of the plight of the filipino doctor, and the status of the medical system in the philippines; in short: very saddening.

My friend Albert is serious in starting a clinic somewhere in Ilo-Ilo as that is where he is from, I want to start a clinic preferably in Bohol-Cebu where it is close to family resources and to the home base, whereas Job wants to do something in Lucena, where he is originally from (Luzon). All three of us ave realized that we would be better to accomodate all resources by pooling our powers together in the future. The plan thus far, is opening a clinic somewhere around Cebu, only because it is close to our regional bases. That and the resources around the province.
Job is open to doing annual/bi-annual medical missions to Lucena and surrounding provinces in Luzon, whereas Albert is thinking about permanently re-patriating to Ilo-Ilo after he finishes residency in the 'states. I would, however, like to start a clinical hospital in Cebu-Bohol, as a long-term project and investment on my part.

The plan is to increase our network and pool greater resources. This is all, of course, do-able, with proper business planning, and proper investment incentives, and with God's Blessings.

Forward In Christ!

A power bar, and a glass of water.

Need to re-energize,

Its 7:44 am.

Need to brew coffee.

Neither.

I don't go by pick-up lines. I converse with the woman, first. Go with the flow, then ask her to sit with me, have a glass of Sauvignon Blanc, enjoy it slow, and talk.

I love to talk first. Talking opens the gates, Talking breaks the ice, Talking allows you to see a clearer picture.

If things went well and you can tell you enjoyed her, and she you. Politely, and sweetly take her hand, look at her eyes and tell her you enjoyed the whole time being with her. Ask her if she would accept going out with her again. If says no, then accept it. If she says yes, then take her hand, kiss her dorsal hand.

Go with the flow.

My baby, my baby girl, my sweet songbird,
My lover, I miss you.

Badly.

But we must study today.
I order you, we must study!

Let us study first,
then we can study each other.


Hunger for me.

When you kiss, do it softly at first, go with the flow. (sounds so cliche, but true)

Stick your tongue inside to match hers, don't jam the whole thing down her throat, because its a turn-off, least it will gag the girl.

Softly, move it around, to match her. If your woman is a follower, then follow her moves. If you're the leader, then by all means: No Holds Bars.

My advice:


You can't just keep on doing the same old routine. You need to keep things spicy, keep things changing. If you go out, take the woman out to something new, or cook for her--feed her, dance for her, just try something new once and a while. Surprise her. As for me, I love it because my woman surprises me all the time. he he

Mentally, keep things spicy.
Sexually, be creative. Trust me, its good, for body and for mind.

Lastly, maintain a healthy spiritual-faithful relationship. It complements things.
She once said to me a while ago, "You are Maginoo pero medyo bastos!"

ha ha ha, my response, "Oh really, baby?" (with puppy eyes)





Bonchance!

Glace, that is a term of endearment! I call my ex that...and if I had a bf now I will call him the same so I dont get confused with names....heheh!

OH... some men do have really big girth so my fingers might not be enough to measure it...LMAO!

Lorenzo, twice a day would be good on work days but weekends that is a minimum!

Like I said, I am insatiable!

You guys are awesome!

Hahahaha! Madam, for me at least 3 times a day, if allowed, I prefer at least 3 times a day. Minimum once a day.

On weekends, the whole day.

But during exam week, ma limited lang ta lagi. he he he

I am a beast in bed. Modesty aside.

So the saying "Date before you marry" comes to mind. lol!

Well, ladies, go on, go on!

Important: Compromise.

Thank you, friend.
When emotion comes out, it comes out.

A Man.

Stacy,

Sweetheart,
I have written you another letter,
And I shall it deliver to you on the morrow,
patience, Love, patience.

We must be patient,
and breath in our sensual feelings, let it burn brighter,
so that when we see each other again, my beloved songbird,
there is no force that can keep us from each other when united.

My love,
I pray to The Lord God Almighty,
that He continues to watch over you,
and to continue to strengthen you in your studies,
and to continue to protect the love you have for me, sweet love.
My One and Only,
I will contain this for so long.

Sweet nectar of my heart,
Vouchsafe for me your continued affection,
and only for me.
As I caress your letters in my mind.

Darling, I dance with you in your letters,
as if you were with me right now,
my beloved,
Sweet nectar,
Most precious lady,
patience, soon, enough.


Accept my continued affection, which is meant for you and only for you.


In Mind and Body,
Your Love.

in ev'ry thought
i have of you,

i sense a calm
that sees me through...

here once again,
i won't confuse

what isn't true ...

left all alone,
i'm swept away;

wishing that you
were here today...

because with you,
i need no ruse...

time's kept at bay...

each time we touch
i live anew...

your sacred breath
sends me askew...

soft subtle smile
i can't refuse;

i need just you.

and if i should
perchance withdraw...

i'll look at you
in raptured awe

and recognize
my priceless muse...

without one flaw

Kiss her some more. Kiss her softly. Kiss her lips, her body, her everything.

hmm, good.

Emotional day. Day filled with work!
I cooked food/dinner/enjoyed it with a nice glass (or two) of Merlot (aged 3 years).

Relaxed today and unwinded. Its a weekend!
God I love it!

Who is your dream analyzer? interesting..
Well in that case, may you choose the right suitor!

Bon chance!

Something like this, for visuals lang. hehehe

Hehehe, but of course, my dear.

I would like my wedding in the old and quaint Church in Valencia, Bohol.

Reasoning: My own mother and father were wed there, and so were my grandparents, and so were my great grandparents and so were my great-great grandparents. so on so forth.

I want to go colonial style. I want her to wear a vintage-looking early 19th century Maria-Clara wedding outfit. With veil and all, the way my parents had their wedding.

And I, in my full-flung Barong Tagalog.

My dream was about watching few men shooting each other! I was the only spectator.
I actually consulted my book of dreams and I'd like to see if you have the same analysis.

Ciao

Carmen, did you watch a shooting flick earlier that day?
So,..what was the end result of your dream.

My sweet love, my darling little song bird;
She is who I dream about most of the time. I go to sleep, back from work, though my body aches from working, my mind aching from reading, there is always a part of me that thinks about my woman every aspect of the day.

Tempestuous thoughts, ravishing, and lyrical in persuasion.
I dream about my hands clasping at her clavicle, my fingers slowly and sensually rubbing down her back.

A man, though he may be tired from work, will always have that aspect of his persona to dream a little more.
To dream in longing.

I should want to know the psychoanalysis of my own dreams. God knows I psychoanalyze people's thoughts when asked. lol. Reversal of roles, shall we?

hahahahaha! Oh you're quite the dangerous woman aren't you?

My dear, i shall bid thee a good adeiu.

I must go and see my own love.

My deepest and fraternal regards,

Stay beautiful, and funny!


Your new friend,
Albrando Lorenzo
"Lorenzo"

Stacy S! Baby, im crazily in love with you.

Shiet, im telling the world!

Babe, Im deeply in LOVE with you.

My baby likes to bite me when im bad, my baby loves to ignore me when i talk to other girls, my babe likes to pay for me when we go out--even though i dont like it. She loves to give, which is what i LOVE about her because she is like me--to the truest sense of the word. I love to give. and to be given in return--o man! Wohooo!

We have deep conversations. Deep as in deep! We are private..so very private.

IN the medical campus, we don't even show physical interest to one another, but do it through our eyes. We say 'hi' 'hello' and the occasional kiss when no one is around. We are visciously secretive and private of our relationship. We dont like classmates or colleagues looking at us.

But at home...can't keep my hands of her.
Crazy.

We're both dangerous. Combined together..we're lethally dangerous. Dangerous. o so bad.

hahaha, baby, baby...

Carmen, hahaha!

I with you in that aspect: being a hopeless romantic...its so hopeless that its quite pathetic. LOL!

interesting tidbit about me: I day dream about what kind of wedding ill have...wedding in philippines and wedding in the states.



ha,

O man! O man! raaawwwrrr!

My current loved one:


5 years my senior, Illonga Beauty, Strong-willed, financially secured, intelligent, medical student and she wants to go into anesthesiology (kind of complements my wanting to go into Surgery), she knows my friends very well, she gets angry easily, she's very jealous, sensitive kaayo, baby at heart, exquisite tastes, she reads my letters all the time, she keeps my head on my shoulder, i like to remind her to be more open-minded, she is brutally business oriented, hmmmm...she likes to cook. She likes to think---she thinks all the time, she's very mature, she has great tastes in wine, and of course good taste in men (she's with me, he he he he).

She's a great lover, o man, we last hours...sometimes..days...

She's my first Filipina love. Perhaps, just perhaps, my first and only.

We'll see. tho. Time shall tell.


My baby, i took this picture...my beautiful beautiful Illonga..



Gorgeous. My babe.

Mo agree ko. Mo agree ko. My lover's breath is enough to send me in ecstasy.

Simple primal sensuality.

I like to wear cologne, and I love it when she wears perfume, not too strong, though.
Red lipstick, red polished nails. 3 inch heels.

We go out!
Lets play ball!

Quote from: comran on November 08, 2009, 04:49:44 AM
LOL..... stuff her mouth with your.........! hehehe... just playing!

Ciao

LOL! Interesting recommendation, Carmen!

LoL,

Italian women are busty, they have the entire package. Big chested, voluptuous curves, and a lethal tan skin.
They are very sensual lovers, and can last the ride, they get on the ship even after the ship landed on the pier. hahaha!

For me lang, i am new to dating Filipinas. So far, I like it. Filipinas are all smiles, but wild kaayo beneath the innocent smile. hahay!
