Don’t Mess with Mature Ladies

Every once in a while, I like to post jokes. Most of the time, they’re smart jokes. This is one that totally made my day. Hope you enjoy too.

A mature (over 40) lady gets pulled over for speeding…

Older Woman: Is there a problem, Officer?

Officer: Ma’am, you were speeding.

Older Woman: Oh, I see.

Officer: Can I see your license please?

Older Woman: I’d give it to you but I don’t have one.

Officer: Don’t have one?

Older Woman: Lost it, 4 years ago for drunk driving.

Officer: I see…Can I see your vehicle registration papers please.

Older Woman: I can’t do that.

Officer: Why not?

Older Woman: I stole this car.

Officer: Stole it?

Older Woman: Yes, and I killed and hacked up the owner.

Officer: You what?

Older Woman: His body parts are in plastic bags in the trunk if you want to see.

The Officer looks at the woman and slowly backs away to his car and calls for back up. Within minutes 5 police cars circle the car. A senior officer slowly approaches the car, clasping his half drawn gun.

Officer 2: Ma’am, could you step out of your vehicle please!

The woman steps out of her vehicle.

Older woman: Is there a problem sir?

Officer 2: One of my officers told me that you have stolen this car and murdered the owner.

Older Woman: Murdered the owner?

Officer 2: Yes, could you please open the trunk of your car, please.

The woman opens the trunk, revealing nothing but an empty trunk.

Officer 2: Is this your car, ma’am?

Older Woman: Yes, here are the registration papers.

The officer is quite stunned.

Officer 2: One of my officers claims that you do not have a driving license.

The woman digs into her handbag and pulls out a clutch purse and hands it to the officer.

The officer examines the license. He looks quite puzzled.

Officer 2: Thank you ma’am, one of my officers told me you didn’t have a license, that you stole this car, and that you murdered and hacked up the owner.

Older Woman: Bet the liar told you I was speeding, too.

One More Year

What if we had one more year to live, one more year to achieve greatness, one more year to travel anywhere we want to, one more year to prove people we can when they’ve told us again and again that it’s impossible?

Well, that’s not the one more year I’m talking about in my life, but it started me thinking how much one can achieve in just one year. It doesn’t seem a long time, but if everyday was to be taken with the utmost priority, one year might just be enough to prove 365 people wrong.

I have one more year until I graduate and get my bachelor’s degree. In this year, how would I make myself known, how would I take my classes, how would I  achieve greatness. Well, as human, I can say I’m driven a lot by my emotions. When I don’t feel like ‘it,’ I won’t do ‘it.’ Whatever ‘it’ is. While a lot of people feels the same, I don’t think it’s what makes humanity better, it’s not what makes people’s lives worth so much more. It’s the drive day-by-day that brings us to better our planet, Earth. Why did human named our planet Earth anyway? I’m going on a guess that it’s like the earth we stand on, our foundation. Terra, if I’m not mistaken. Humans are the ones that better our world, and I believe we do that by making our lives better, by making every breath worth losing, every heart beat pumping.

One more year, just one more year and I could be out there working, no more study, no more achieving the greatness as the children could, one more year to make me older, an adult in a sense where the next generation of kids will be taking over. I have heard of two places dislike the most by human beings: school and work. I think that’s the case because we let our lives revolve around one of those two things (or for some, both at the same time). Sure, school or work might suck from time to time, in fact, there are days where I feel the day’s going slow and work was not the place I want to be at that day. I think school and work should be the ones that revolve around us. Work is only part of our lives, it’s what we do to feed ourselves and our love ones (for those who do have a family). Some people have worked the same job for 40+ years and still going strong, and I would imagine it being tiring after so long, but it’s the fact that it brings in food, shelter, and clothes for the family.

Six more days, and school starts, and that will be the beginning of the end of my college years (Bachelor, yet to come to term of Master yet). When I think back, I have to say, there are some activities that I did because it’s something to do, and some that I actually enjoy doing. There are time when I wish I did this or that and I didn’t. Well, I’m still young and still have the opportunity, but until that time comes, living with things such as those are definitely not easy. Some things I won’t be able to live back and some I could. But the pass doesn’t foreshadow my future. My pass will be what build me to become in my future.

One more year, and my life might change. How? That could only be determined by my decisions and now by the last year I live my college life. I can’t change how I’ve done in the past, but what I do from here on out, it could very well set a foundation of how I will be living in one year time. I could just have a job, or I could have a great job, loving my work and live or going through the motions of doing work and life. It could very well be the difference of life and death for some people. I would choose life, I would want a great job, and it could even determine if I could have a new car or drive the same car I’ve driven for the pass 6 years (which I have to say has done very well. It’s only broken down on me once, but it start back up after sitting there for two or three minutes, it’s never ran out of gas, even though I’ve pushed it to .2+ gallons left in its tank, and it has served its purpose. If I have the money, I would continue to drive that car and fix it, but it would be cheaper to get a different car that could have twice the millage my current car has).

One More Year…

Why The Dislike?

I enjoy negativity. Not toward me nor toward anyone. I meant I think about negative thoughts a lot. I’m not sure if it’s normal like everyone, but thoughts like: What if I had another year to live (Cheeky could relate, cause I just talked with her about it last night); When I die, how many people would actually go to my funeral and how many people actually would think of the great things about me or the bad things about me (or the weird and funny things about me); If it was me who had cancer instead of my mom, how would my sister’s life be, how would Cheeky’s life be and how would my housemates’ lives be; and some other weird ones like that. Yea, it seem mostly are about deaths.

Well, in a way, I don’t think of it as a suicide attempt, it’s just my curiosity in life and about life surrounding me. My blog is about me writing about me and the world that I’m in after all. So, here’s the catch, I’m a Christian. Well, that’s not the catch. Actually, there’s no catch at all. I’m a Christian and I talk about Christians a lot. I will tell you that I talk about people a lot, but I will definitely not fake whether I like someone or not to their face. If I’m upset at them, you can tell I’m upset and not fake it, or if I don’t like a person, I will show I don’t like the person. I have yet to really dislike a person for everything they are… except one back in high school, and people knew about it. So, what I really dislike is what the person’s done or how they are in certain situation or etc. about anything like that.

Today, I saw something that made me wonder… yet again. Is Christian just a name that no one can live up to expectations, or are we just human who’s trying to live our lives as what we believe is the truth? I saw something that I didn’t expect, a Christian (A) was nice to this other Christian person (B) when we were talking about something and when that person (B) looked at me and talk, (A) just gave me this one look like I don’t like (B), and shook his/her head in a way like disagreeing to (B). Um… well, sad, but true.

So, is this behavior Christian like? I mean, Christians are human too, and there’s no way we could ‘like’ every single person. Even I had one person I dislike entirely. But here’s what I think could help the situation. If we would be truthful in front of the person we dislike, or choose to tolerate that person and not have a two-face about it. If I’m going to have a dislike something, I’ll say it. I’d rather live in my truth than to lie and say I’m a Christian. So here goes…

1. I dislike the fact that people think they should just take advantage of my niceness.
2. I am jealous at my sister for having a nicer car, but more importantly, a car with better gas millage.
3. I dislike the fact that most Christians try so hard to be so much holier than thou. I mean, seriously, I think we should accept people as they are. Maybe I’m not Christian enough? I guess I’ll just have to live with that fact if it’s true.
4. I dislike cherry flavor sodas. Cherry Pepsi, Cherry Cola, Cherry Cherry (I don’t really know how that taste like or if it even exist actually).

I think I’m done. I mean, there’s a lot for sure, but I’ll just leave it at those, because those are easily remember and just off the top of my head. I’m just kinda tired. I want to go play my Pokemon and “catch ‘em all!“

Today’s Encounter Made Me Wonder

Today was just an ordinary day… until I start to think a little too much. While I was walking to work from a parking lot, I came across a bumper sticker that said “Christians cannot be Pro-choice.” Then I started thinking about where the words come from. First off, I understand the fact that Pro-choice and Pro-life are both words regarding strictly to abortion. I started wondering why people didn’t make words up like abortionist and non-abortionist. Just like sexist and racist, we have words for those. Why didn’t people just pick choice as their main word and went with Pro-choice and Sans-choice or Con-choice, or picking life as their main word and went with Pro-life and Sans-life or Con-life. Then I started thinking that it’s all in the wording. See, Pro-life and Pro-choice make their stand in what they believe through words. Positive reinforcement is always better than negative reinforcement (at least that’s what I’ve been taught).

No matter what it comes down to, the Pro-choice people are not saying they’re against life, it’s just they stand to believe they have a different way of handling life, while the Pro-life people are not saying they’re against choice, they just believe that living being should have life. Not that there’s resources out there saying what’s fact and what’s lie, but I believe there are many Christians (yes, true Christians, not just the ones that say they are but don’t really act like one) that are Pro-choice. No, it’s not they agree with abortionists (yes, I’m going to start using that word), but it’s the fact that they’ve been in situation where they were once Pro-life but because of circumstances, they became Pro-choice. I don’t think there should be a special case for anyone. If people are going to have sex before marriage, that’s their choice to do so, and chances are, without protection, there will be a baby and when that time comes, Pro-life or Pro-choice extremist will call you out and put you on your spot. Trust me, they will.

I started talking to a friend about why this is, and here’s a little inside of what I got. A lot of it has to do with politics. I mean, it’s one way or another, there isn’t a party in politics that stand in middle ground. No one wants to see it a different way when it comes to politics. I remember people arguing that I should be a Republican because I’m a Christian and they’re Pro-life while the Democrat are people who’s Pro-choice. What an extreme way to see, I know plenty of Christians who are Democrat thank you very much, I just think they see some other issues as more important to the nation than abortion.

If a young couple got married, and did have sex, but wasn’t ready for a baby, and they so happen to have one, should they have a choice to have an abortion? If they’re Pro-life, then that contradicts everything right? I mean, I would want to raise my own kid, and I don’t want to see him/her raised by another family. It’s because they’re a part of me. But I’m not ready for a kid, what should I do. I would like to quote a very famous saying that has annoyed the living daylights out of me, but I do accept that it’s very true, “Talk is Cheap!” If everyone is doing what they say, I think this world wouldn’t have any liars.

So, now that I’ve written what’s been on my mind all day since this morning, I will leave it at that. I would like to think that the Pro-life people everyday still chooses to love the people who are Pro-choice and the Pro-choice people still chooses to live life to the fullest  ^_^

Long Weekends… Family Reunions

It’s been a while since I post any entries. It’s due to the choices I’ve made lately. Yup, I’ve been doing nothing during the weekdays except work and play, and I wasn’t even motivated to read any of my friend’s blog for a while. Guess I’m back with motivation, I just needed some lazy weeks in the summer before school starts (which is in about 2 weeks).

The last two weeks, I’ve had encounters with my girlfriend’s families. Well, the first weekend was her mom’s family reunion and the second weekend (this pass weekend) was her step-dad’s family reunion (more of a get together really). And with those two family reunion, I was reminded of my far away family, and the next time I get to see them all at a family reunion.

Family reunions are fun. This pass weekend, we went down a spring river for 3 1/2 hours and boy I tell you, I was sore for the rest of the week, I still am a little. My back’s kind of messed up from laying on a tube for a long time. Anyway, I had tons of fun and I could only hope the same for my girlfriend when she goes to my family reunion with me. The cultures or so different, what things are done and who shows up and who does what, but all in all, they all tend to end up the same, smiles and laughs and stories here and there.

Woo, go family reunions. Mine will be during Christmas, definitely looking forward to it. I hope all of you have had a great summer.
