sigh...

i don't understand people, boys, men...

i promised this year i would be kind... to boys, men... providing anyone and everyone with TLC... and i would stick to that.

however, there are just amazing things in this world.

a saudi arabian contacted me, telling me he wanted to learn tagalog. as someone in need of more students, i said of course, sure, yeah. we exchanged info, (my) rates, etc... via chatting... for, like, between 2 or 3 meetings...

then he asked for my photos... i gave him website links where he could see my photos...

after seeing them for a minute, he started asking me if i could be his gf.

what?

he is coming this february, with 10 days to stay. he has barely two weeks to learn tagalog, and he wants me to be on his side 24 hours. what's more, he wants me to cancel my lessons with my other students.

what?

and his offline messages said i should think about it. he only looked at my photos - i mean, geez, no need for background searching or something.

what?

and after that can-you-be-my-gf chat... nearly midnight, i received a call from him. i could not understand him, must be because of the distance, static sound - but i could not understand what he was saying. line was not clear. not sure what he said, but i hope not about the chat.

still, when he comes, i'll be kind. duh... where is this leading?

geez... wish september were near... 2011... so far...

Ding it...!

Loong time... and what to write? I feel cold right now... what's wrong with temperature?

What happened to me after all this time? Uh... ok, my New Year's Resolution: treat boys/suitors with TLC (if you're living in the dark, it means Tender, Love and Care), no more stupid bitchy bitch. Last year is pretty hell... so time to change!

Next: Apply to the university of my dreams (if we are friends and you are reading this blog and you want to know the name, feel free to ask - I won't say it here, though. Maybe when I already passed).

What else: just had my Tagalog group lesson, the first, last Tuesday night. My first - and I mean, my first. With 3 students, all women, all beginners. Whenever one of my students said, "I'm confused," (and I have to say it happened, like, thrice or four times) I also got confused :-S Ok, I'm better in 1-on-1, so this is a totally new experience for me. Who knows, maybe in the future, I could handle 10 people per session - now that's a nice thought :-) (especially for my pocket)

Really cold... and to think Christmas finished weeks ago...

Oh, yeah... the book... planning to write a book that teaches Tagalog, not that I could not find any material that suits my taste and my techniques. It would be good for my resume :-P Yup, used to write love stories, sci-fi stories - but now I believe I will never become a writer/novelist. Not that I lost hope. It's definitely not for me, and not the life that awaits me.

What's 2010 for me? Is it a lucky year for me? Is a Rat like me lucky for the Year of the Tiger? Will check the Internet later.

Whew! Long time since I last wrote here, and I thought I had totally forgotten the password - when it's only a name of a person :-P Right... What a clue... Hope no one tries to hack this with my name.

OK. I should do this other resolution: Continue studying languages! Dung it... Keep on pausing... When will I ever learn French/Japanese/Russian?
