hi!

so sorry for not updating this journal. it seems that i lost my interest in blogging :( anyway, what happened during those months that i was hibernating from the blog world? hmmm...here's a few....

~ september 2005 - my birth month...nothing worth blogging happened to me except my sis gave birth to a baby girl

~ october 2005 - ralph is finally home! at long last, after years of staying in south korea, he's finally home and we're finally going to spend more time together

~ december 2005 - dec 23......my cousin was accidentally shot by an air gun in on her pelvic area. i was with ralph when my mom called, i was shocked because we were just together an hour ago. i didn't knew that time that it was an air gun. after that call from my mom, my phone didn't stop ringing, calls & text messages from my mom, aunts & cousin keeps on coming. it turns out that when one of my aunt learned that my cousin was shot, my aunt's blood preassure hit the ceiling and she too was rushed to the hospital. fortunately, they both turned out fine and the lead bullet was removed from my cousin's pelvic area. now, everytime our family talks about it, i blame my cousin for interrupting my date :p hehehe
- spent christmas eve with ralph...it was our first time!

~ january 2006 - had dinner with pazette, abie, len, tin & ging. it was a fun evening spent with few of my trusted friends, hope we'll get together again soon :) (something else happened this month and will be posted after this but only frinds can view it *wink* *wink*

~ february 2006 - ralph and i spent our FIRST valentine's date ;) *wink* we went out on the 11th & 12th instead of the 14th to avoid the v-day rush. we had dinner and just spent the whole day together :)

~ april 2006 - i decided to venture in a new business. i invested my small savings and ventured with my friend. we're going to sell flip flops (thongs), not just the ordinary ones but beadded flip flops. nah...the beads is not just sewn or glued to the ruber straps/thongs but ours use the beads as THE strap/thong and we will try to make every pair unique. oh and  ralph has started a small farm in the province and earning quite well with it :)

~ may 2006 - the site for my flip flops business is finally open :)  check out lilac's flip flops

10:24 am - Through a Rapist's Eyes (No Joke)
I received this email and I decided to post it....please read :
 
This is important information for females of ALL ages.  Guys - please forward to the female members of your family and all your female friends and associates.

When this was sent to me, I was told to forward it to my lady friends. I forwarded it to most everyone in my address book. My men friends have female friends and this information is too important to miss someone. Please pass it along.

A group of rapists and date rapists in prison were interviewed on what they look for in a potential victim and here are some interesting facts:

1) The first thing men look for in a potential victim is hairstyle.   They are most likely to go after a woman with a ponytail, bun, braid or other hairstyle that can easily be grabbed. They are also likely to go after a woman with long hair. Women with short hair are not common targets.

2) The second thing men look for is clothing. They will look for women who's clothing is easy to remove quickly.  Many of them carry scissors around specifically to cut clothing.

3) They also look for women on their cell phone, searching through their purse or doing other activities while walking because they are off guard and can be easily overpowered.

4) Men are most likely to attack & rape in the early morning, between 5:00 a.m. and  8:30 a.m.

5) The number one place women are abducted from/attacked is grocery store parking lots. Number two is office parking lots/garages.   Number three is public restrooms.

6) The thing about these men is that they are looking to grab a woman and quickly move her to another location where they don't have to worry about getting caught.

7) Only 2% said they carried weapons because rape carries a 3-5 year sentence but rape with a weapon is 15-20 years.

8) If you put up any kind of a fight at all, they get discouraged because it only takes a minute or two for them to realize that going after you isn't worth it because it will be time-consuming

9) These men said they would not pick on women who have umbrellas, or other similar objects that can be used from a distance, in their hands.

Keys are not a deterrent because you have to get really close to the attacker to use them as a weapon. So, the idea is to convince these guys you're not worth it.

10) Several defense mechanisms he taught us are: If someone is following behind you on a street or in a garage or with you in an elevator or stairwell, look them in the face and ask them a question, like what time is it, or make general small talk: "I can't believe it is so cold out here", "we're in for a bad weather." Now you've seen their face and could identify them in a line-up; you lose appeal as a target.

11) If someone is coming toward you, hold out your hands in front of you and yell STOP or STAY BACK ! Most of the rapists this man talked to said they'd leave a woman alone if she yelled or showed that she would not be afraid to fight back . Again, they are looking for an EASY target.

12) If you carry pepper spray (this instructor was a huge advocate of it and carries it with him wherever he goes,) yell I HAVE PEPPER Spray and holding it out will be a deterrent.

13) If someone grabs you, you can't beat them with strength but you can by outsmarting them. If you are grabbed around the waist from behind, pinch the attacker either under the arm (between the elbow and armpit) OR  in the upper inner thigh  VERY VERY HARD. One woman in a class this guy taught told him she used the underarm pinch on a guy who was trying to date rape her and was so upset she broke through the skin and tore out muscle strands -  the guy needed stitches.

Try pinching yourself in those places as hard as you can stand it; it hurts.

14) After the initial hit, always GO for the GROIN. I know from a particularly unfortunate experience that if you slap a guy's parts it is extremely painful. You might think that you'll anger the guy and make him want to hurt you more, but the thing these rapists told our instructor is that they want a woman who will not cause a lot of trouble. Start causing trouble, and he's out of there.

15) When the guy puts his hands up to you, grab his first two fingers and bend them back as far as possible with as much pressure pushing down on them as possible. The instructor did it to me without using much pressure, and I ended up on my knees and both knuckles cracked audibly.

16) Of course the things we always hear still apply. Always be aware of your surroundings, take someone with you if you can and if you see any odd behavior, don't dismiss it, go with your instincts!!!

You may feel a little silly at the time, but you'd feel much worse if the guy really was trouble

i had a weird dream last night and it's scary for me..

in this dream, i was with my family & relatives, i don't know exactly who among them because their face didn't register in my dreams, basta alam ko, pamilya at kamag anak ko kasama ko.  i think it's a family outing or something. i was talking with them when i decided to take a bath and while taking a bath, i felt some blood oozing between my legs. since i didn't feel any pain whatsoever, i thought my period just came and ignored it. after a few minutes, i was surprised when i felt a large amount of hot liquid and semi solid thing coming out of my vagina. when i looked down, i saw a pool of blood and a fetus on the floor. i cried and called somebody for help...that's all i can remember from that dream. i can't even remember if h2b was there :(

i find it weird because in this dream, i didn't feel any pain at all. first, when i noticed the blood and presumed that i had my period, it's the opposite of what i'm experiencing in real life because in reality, whenever it's that time of the month, i have severe dysmenorrhea. so severe that there were times that i can't even get out of the bed for the first few days. the abdominal pain/cramps will last until the 4th or 5th day but it will gradually decrease and becomes tolerable. second, why didn't i felt pain when the fetus came out? it just came out...as in! i didn't even felt like urinating or something... 

as a woman who's dreaming of having her own kids someday, i'm scared. i don't know what will i do if something like that happens to me. h2b and i loves kids and we 're planning to have one right away. i don't know .....i hope and pray that it won't happen to us.

i also wish someone could interpret this dream for me....
