Lasting Friendship

Ever had a friend who became your closest but as time passes your closeness became monotonous and eventually your friendship fell apart...

kung dati text hanggang magsawa at wala ng mapagkuwentuhan..ngayon.. ilang ng makipagusap..kung dati kasama sa gimik..ngayon hindi mo alam kung ano na trip niya..kung dati alam mo kung saan siya..ngayon nasaan na siya??

Is this what friendships have become? Nagkakasawaan na rin? I'm just wondering coz im really sensitive when it comes to my friends and i know this will sound weird but i treasure my friends as the way i treasure my family.. kaya nung may narinig akong ganito (which i dont deny na naranasan ko na rin) from some of my friends napaisip rin ako.

i've had friends like that before -we were "close" for quite some time, then all of a sudden

(due to school or some other reason) there's no communication or anythin to even keep the friendship alive.

Heres one best article that i found here in the internet.

A Reason, a Season, or a Lifetime

People come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. When you figure out which one it is, you will know what to do for each person.When someone is in your life for a

REASON it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend, and they are! They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrong doing on your part, or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered. And now it is time to move on.

When people come into your life for a

SEASON because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They bring you an experience of peace, or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it! It is real! But, only for a season.

LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons; things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person, and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.

Dam i love my friends.

Dragon Ball Z Super Android 13 (Extreme Battle Three Great Super Sai-jin)

Start of the movie Dr. Gero is attacked by Androids 17 and 18; against his own wishes, he has resorted to activating them in an attempt to kill Son Goku and his friends. Unfortunately, they are more powerful and aware than he had anticipated, and turn against their master. #17 decapitates Dr. Gero, and crushes his head. Elsewhere in his laboratory, we see Dr. Gero's blood dripping down into a room with a computer still working hard, hooked up to three more giant capsules large enough to hold a person inside. The numbers on them read out 13, 14, and 15.
Goku and his friends are in the city, all enjoying different aspects of the day out (beauty contest, shopping, eating, the works). Two strange looking beings (a short purple-skinned one with a hat and a large blue-skinned one with a pony tail), both wearing Red Ribbon Army symbols, approach the mall where everyone's eating, and begin blowing things up. They zone in on Goku, and the fight begins.
Goku quickly realizes that they are both Androids, as he can sense no Ki from them. At first, Goku battles them both, with Trunks joining in shortly. Gohan insists that he also leave to fight (much to Chi-Chi's delight, of course). Kuririn thinks that the fight is far above his own capabilities, but Chi-Chi thinks differently. Kuririn wonders if he'll ever get married...
The fight continues, and soon a third being shows up. This one is very humanoid looking, and even has a cheesy baseball cap (with the Red Ribbon emblem, of course). During the fight, Vegeta makes a surprise entrance, as does Piccolo. Each of the three Saiyans takes on an Artificial Human, and appears to be beaten up badly. All three turn themselves into Super Saiyans, much to Kuririn's and Gohan's delight, as the tables seem to turn on the Artificial Humans.
#14 and #15 are destroyed by Trunks and Vegeta. #13 is surprised, but still has a trick up his sleeve. The remaining chips from the two defeated Artificial Humans float up into #13, and he absorbs them, beginning his transformation into a giant, blue, pupil-less monster. Everyone is thrashed by this "Super 13," and Goku is eventually tossed into the ocean. Despite being nearly killed, Goku raises his arms into the air (although he's upside down!), and asks for everyone to contribute their energy. Goku slowly rises up from the ocean, and a Genki-Dama gradually forms in the air above him. Super 13 repeatedly attempts to defeat Goku, but is repelled each time by Gohan, Vegeta, Trunks, and Piccolo. As Piccolo is crushed under the weight of Super 13's foot, he yells out for Goku to show him the true power of a Super Saiyan. Goku indeed turns into a Super Saiyan, but Kuririn remarks that it will be impossible for Goku to use the Genki-Dama with a heart full of anger and hatred (which is necessary in order to turn into a Super Saiyan).
In a shocking (and highly illogical) move, Goku begins to absorb the energy from the Genki-Dama AS a Super Saiyan. Blue energy surrounds both him and Super 13, destroying the ground around them. Super 13 tries (and fails) to punch Goku, who (with a blood-curdling scream) punches directly through Super 13, and tosses him up into the surrounding energy.
Gohan wakes up to see his father sitting above him on a rock, saying, "Yo!"
Back at the hospital (where everyone was apparently brought), Kuririn offers up an explanation as to what probably happened with the Genki-Dama, while Goku laughs and says he has no idea. Gohan asks where Piccolo and Vegeta are; the scene cuts to the both of them, sitting silently and facing away from each other on opposite sides of an ice floe, out in the middle of the ocean. A fish jumps out of the water, and the ending credits begin!

Avoiding Temptations Tips

What's the best thing to do to keep you away from masturbating??? this is a common problem of guys these days. Here are some tips from yours truly GUIAN ^_^

1. Do not Watch Porn ( watchin pornographic materials stimulates your brain cells to react that will lead your penis to errection)

2. Avoid being alone (being alone sometimes and doing nothing makes you bored)

3. keep yourself busy (indulging in sports is one of the best way to keep your thoughts away from doing the deed)

4. Surrender your temptation to God ( admit that your powerless to temptation and surrender to God to save you)

5. "Each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death." - James 1:14-15

Anyways i have encountered a article regarding masturbation.

"Sex and masturbation helps to strengthen the sperm, if the sperm remain idle it will weaken it"

so if you really can't avoid temptations just go with the flow and be responsible with whatever the outcome is.

Sex in High School LIfe ??

High school is what you call the stage wherein everyone is growing up - puberty. This is the time when we were all stupid: hormones taking over. I am not for nor against sexual activity during teens or even after, just make sure you know what you are doing and the consequences that might pop-up. Don't force someone or yourself to have sex, it's better to wait. And it is still better to have sex with the love of your life (of course do it when you both get married)

TO BE A REAL MAN!!

Do you have to sleep with every girl to become and be told that you are a man?

Do you think by not crying makes you one?

Do you need to show aggression or even demean anyone to become the Alpha dog?

1. Not necessarily. Sex only determine your masculinity in bed. Do I have to explain this?

2. Not always. For some people crying is a weakness, for women only, but for some other, crying means you are man enough to show your emotions. Personally, I do cry in front of a friend especially if that person understands why am I crying.

3. Men's image is always more aggressive than women. But being aggressive doesn't always tell who are the real men.You can be born male, technically your gender by birth. But being a man is a process you'll learn while growing up.
