DEATH
Almost everyday, we know of people who celebrate their birthdays. For many, birthdays should be celebrated. But for some, they even don't bother to tell others of it. Some are afraid to get old. Some are embarrassed of their age. Some instead consider being old as maturity or superiority over others. But for me, going through another birthday, and getting old is one step near DEATH. We don't know when or how we'll die. May it be of an accident, a disease, old age or even suicide. Even fortune tellers are not certain. Anyway, here are some trivia on death. Hope you enjoy them. Or I hope you don't and just get paranoid. :p Just kidding. :)

PSYCHOLOGY PERSONALITY QUIZ
Dear Andrea Aguila, below are your PSYCHOLOGY PERSONALITY test result:PSYCHOLOGY PERSONALITY QUIZ
You love the crowd... a party animal! Too many “friends”, you can’t easily tell which among them is real and not...
You’re usually expressive... Open about your emotions and most of the time willing to talk about it.
You search for love... you’re a hopeless romantic and every time you enter a relationship, you give your all and believe “this is the One.”
You have so many ideas in mind... You’re creative and aggressive! If you want something, you’ll do anything to get it!
You’re a stubborn sweetheart... You “love” him/her only because he/she loves you. If his/her flame puts out, you let go with no trouble.
You’re undoubtedly good-natured! Most of the time, people are confident to approach you because they know you will consider them.
You love actions... with the hero-like taste! You focus on your strengths and use them to protect persons/things that are important to you.
Who agrees with this? Well, I do. For some parts.
End of the world in 2012?
This Friday the movie 2012 will be out in theaters in the Philippines. Currently, the issue about the end of the planet that we are living in has troubled many. Some became paranoid. Some have thought of this as nonsense. I think the end of the world is really going to happen but seriously I don't agree that it's on 2012. Due to the materialism of most humans, natural resources have been wasted. These resources have been turned into garbage that is nowhere to be placed. We're running out of landfills! We should learn to reuse stuff and lessen our materialism. Because of this, some resort to burning of garbage. Obviously, this creates a great negative effect to our Ozone Layer. Also, Global Warming is greatly occurring. The Philippines has experienced Mother Nature fighting back. Because of climate change, several typhoons have formed and have destroyed many parts of the country. Maybe this is one way to warn us of our fate if we continue to waste our resources. The country is one of the luckiest ones in terms of natural resources and we do nothing but waste them. For money, a lot of business people waste these resources. After these typhoons, in no time, surely famine will occur. People would be losing food to eat. Resources will be more limited and after a while, we'll all be left hungry. With everyone hungry, countries will decide to declare wars among other countries. Several wars will surely lead to the destruction of the planet that we currently live in now. Another scenario may be that because of famine, diseases may spread. Like what already started, A(H1NI) and Hepatitis will spread out. These diseases are communicative therefore will easily lead to the end of mankind.

Blogging for Lazy People
Yeah I've already tried blogging on my Multiply site but haven't really tried creating my own blogging page. Ha ha ha! First off, I'm one of those people who find staying on a computer and just surfing the net as boring and tedious. Now I'm trying something new for a change. I'm the type of person who doesn't want trying on new stuff and just one who stays on the safe side where I know I'd surely be happy. Blogging isn't for people like me, that's for sure. I'm someone who could last a whoooole day just lying down on my bed either asleep, watching television or if you're lucky you'd see me doing something productive like using my PSP. Ha ha ha! I find playing with my PSP as productive cause I got bored of it and don't use it anymore. :)) Some days of my semestral break have been spent with recurring events. Waking up at around 10 in the morning, having brunch, watching television, taking a nap, checking my Facebook account, eating a snack, taking another nap, watching television again then dozing off to sleep at around 2am. Yeah I guess this is called a life of a total bum. But really, I'm just making the most out of my short vacation. Maybe blogging could sort of add to the redundant events of my days. The start of the second semester is quite near anyway. So there. :) Please stay tuned to my blog and watch out for more interesting topics from me :)
