Mental Block + First Day Funk

aggst. yesterday was my worst mental block. aiish! my mind went blank for 20 seconds. no train of thought whatsoever... many thought it was a strategy, but it was really a mental block. the good thing is that my speech went well. :D thank you fans for your loyal support *yabang*

********************************************
here's the lyrics of Parokya ni Edgar's new single (i got it from the cover of the First Day Funk - Rexona CD!!! yey!). waah... LSS!!! :) (puro kili-kili topic ko ngaun ah, nagkataong sa commercial ng Rexona itong FDF)

FIRST DAY FUNK - Parokya ni Edgar

let's do the funk let's do the first day

Bridge:
handa ka na ba?

first day of school dapat cool na cool!
mas cool pa sa tubig sa swimming pool!
dapat talaga maganda na agad ang pasok
pagpasok mo ng classroom dapat umuusok!

wag na wag ka mapapraning!
sagot kita diretso ang tingin!
di dapat maatat na mapansin,
kahit hot lahat, dapat chill pa rin!
hinding hindi yumuyuko kahit na nakaupo!
di ko sinasabi na dapat na mayabang.
pero dapat di ka mahiyain na halaman
confidence chong, lakas loob!

wag na wag kang patataob
kahit sa tapat ng maganda mong kaklase!
mas lalo na sa prof na mukhang salbahe!...
dance!

let's do the funk
let's do the first day funk (repeat 4x)

Refrain:
itaas ang kamay at iwagaywag
salute the prof at sabay kaway,
magclassmate high-5 lang kayo
now don't be shy, kwela skwela 'to
just raise your hand kung may sagot
if you don't know the answer eh di lagot!
just erase the board at magsayaw
lagyan ng funk ang pag-galaw... sayaw!

let's do the funk
let's do the first day funk (repeat 4x)

may dumating na isang babae!
sobrang hottie na kaklase,
siya'y lumapit at nag-hi
at ako nama'y napakaway
akala ko ako ang kanyang kinakawayan
at di ko inakala na ang nasa likuran!
kahit na napahiya di ako kinabahan!
wala na 'tong ibang mapupuntahan... sayaw!

let's do the funk
let's do the first day funk (repeat 4x)

Refrain:
itaas ang kamay at iwagaywag
salute the prof at sabay kaway
magclassmate high-5 lang kayo
now don't be shy kwela skwela 'to
just raise your hand kung may sagot
if you don't know the answer eh di lagot
just erase the board at magsayaw
lagyan ng funk ang pag-galaw... sayaw!

let's do the funk
let's do the first day funk (repeat 8x)

Kili-Kili Power

Each one of us possesses power. Search no further, its on your axilla. For those who slept on their bio classes, it's the underarm. In lieu with Star Wars, let's call Kilikili Power the "Axilla Force."

Stories of Axilla Force:
The Axilla Force is at its peak during summer. I don't intend to be graphic, but it's when it's humid and hot... and one is all sweaty... don't ride the MRT during rush hour. I remember a true story about a young girl who was eating lollipop in the jeepney accidentally tripped, and her lollipop got stuck on the axilla of an old guy. i'm not kinda maarte and such, pero eeuuw! yuck!!! hehe. fortunately/unfortunately, the guy was sleeping, and the lollipop was in his underarm throughout the journey. Eating that lollipop will qualify for Fear Factor.

I also read somewhere. If reincarnation is real, one person wanted to be an axilla. Why? Because he will then only need Rexona for 24-hour protection. Beat that for a bodyguard!

Lessons from the Axilla Force:
The Axilla Force manifests the repercussions of POWER.

1. Power means alienation/isolation.
When one possesses great power, he tends to be arrogant and will be difficult to approach, and will be out of our league. Similarly, with the axilla force, everyone will try to get away from you.

2. Power means responsibility.
From the clichéd Spiderman quote, "With great power comes great responsibility." With great Kilikili Power comes gargantuan amounts of tawas and rexona.

3. Power should be in moderation.
Power is good at the right levels. Something too little or too much can be bad. According to research, most women are attracted more in manly odor, rather than in perfume. With the right levels of axilla force, you will not be necessarily smelly, but can be attractive.

So remember to:
Pray everyday - So that you may live
Take a Bath everyday - So that others may live as well

Solving the 7-11 Lock Mystery

Why do 7-11 (and other convenience stores) have door locks knowing that they are open 24-7?

after going to different places, meeting several people, and buying different food that have no relation to this entry, i have come up with obvious reasons why they have locks.

the 7-11 mystery question is a metaphor of creation.

from dust to dust. all good things must come to an end. something must come from nothing, and to nothing it will end up.

point 1: things came from nothing.
same goes to the 24-hour convenience stores. they were not constructed open. once upon a time, they were closed. before the grand opening, before the security guard arrived, the store is locked. before the construction of the store, it was an empty lot, there was no store.

point 2: it will end up to nothing
all things must come to an end. convenience stores are not open forever. it might close temporarily and move to another location, or it might close permanently. when it is closed, it is locked.

the 7-11 mystery is a metaphor of creation. from being closed to being open, from being open to being closed. from dust to dust.

Always Use Protection



Still using Internet Explorer? Move on and use Firefox. The copy of the ad states: Firefox is the free Web browser that offers greater privacy and prevents pop-ups, spyware and viruses.

QUITE (Quite means VERY) True!

I have many friends who had PC problems while using the internet. They got viruses and worms from the net just by using IE. Solution: Firefox. I've been using Firefox since its beta days. Firefox is QUITE good in surfing and internet security.

Get it and Spread the Fire!
