Sabi nila kapag tinamaan ka, tinamaan ka.

Well for me, you love because it's either you really wanted to love, you like the idea of loving, or you're just bored. But who is not bored in this world? What a boring world right?

I couldn't agree more.

Tulog. Kain. Aral. Tulog. Kain. Aral.

Minsan iniisip ko na panaginip ang lahat ng ito. Gusto ko nalang talagang umalpas sa kinauupuan ko, and maybe disappear.

Saan ba ang magandang lugar to scream about your rants in life? Where no one knows you and you're free to hate anyone. Free from hate when hating someone online, 'bout how they behave and bashing their fucks about. Where can I find a place like that?

Being a third year college student is tough. Feeling ko nakikidigma ako at kalaban ko si Kamatayan. It's mind blowing, suffocating, draining and it's literally going to kill you.

What's the purpose of studying anyways?

To be intelligent?

Intelligent people don't have to suffer that much. What makes a person intelligent anyways?

For me, I'll say a person is intelligent when she or he can adapt to the surroundings that quickly. The power of manipulation and persuasion makes a person intelligent. Being intelligent is not all about being knowledgeable. And being "BOBO" for me is a life choice.

It's an opinionated question. Every opinion is valid, as long as the reasoning isn't pointless.

And I call myself intelligent.

Naka-ilang shift na ba ako? Ah! Dalawa. From Education-Architecture-Engineering. Wow, napaka-astig naman. Should I shift again? Just to call myself intelligent? And maybe explore all fields 'til I die?

But being intelligent is a life choice too. If you want to put yourself in a boiling pot, then choose to be really intelligent. Rely on yourself like a selfish dog. And die alone. It isn't that always easy. The pressure... you know what I mean right?

Gusto ko nalang maging Astronaut, then once I'm at space I'll remove that thing na parang oxygen tank or what so ever, at gusto ko nalang magpalutang-lutang sa space. Dying is easier than living. Isn't it amazing?

What's intelligence if I'm already dead.

Okay. Let's shift to my ultimate problem. The love life. Should I marry a billionaire instead? It's a strategy to have easy money tho. I'll find a man who possesses the four M's for me to survive.

The "Matandang Mayaman na Madaling Mamatay". Pwede na 'to pagtiyagaan. I'm 22 so it's okay to marry a 60 year old man. No big deal.

Gusto ko lang naman tumakas sa reality. Find a man whose work is stable. Rich. That man will risk his life to reach my standards. Not those handsome men na walang modo at tambay sa kanto. Smoking cigarettes until heir family smokes their own ashes.

Asan ang matinong lalaki nowadays?

Sa internet?

Sa dating apps?

Online?

A stranger from omegle?

In summary, what's the point of being intelligent, kung bobo ka pagdating sa love, and eventually can't find one?
