Today is Mother’s Day. Happy Mother’s Day to your mom and all the moms in the internet.
An inconvenient truth:
GTA IV got more search results than Mother’s day. “GTA IV” leads with 1.6 million results more than “mothers day.” Result came from Googlefight. Just beat it! HAHA
After 6 hours of driving lessons and practice, I now know how to drive a manual transmission vehicle. I can reach a maximum of around 70 KPH and my Dad is amazed because until now he drives at around 40 KPH. Too much playing of Need for Speed makes me feel the real need for speed.
I practiced at the alternate route for trucks and buses in daytime and I got used to driving with 16-wheelers
passing by. At first I was afraid because they are HUGE! But now I am more afraid of the cops and pedestrians. I still don’t have my student’s permit and it would be a big problem if I ever commit violations while driving – which I never want to have because I want to have a very clean police record. But hey, even Bill Gates got caught with a driving violation. I would want to smile in the mug shots like him to give the police a hint that I am DWI.
The next challenge for me is to park the vehicle. I know how to drive but I don’t know how to park properly. Parking is a very important skill especially when there is a police car right at your back. But more important is drifting because parking when there is a police will not get you into television.
Learning how to drive makes me want to have a car of my own. But my parents will kill me if I demand for one and Kidney selling is now illegal here in the Philippines. The worst part is that I wouldn’t settle for a sexy coupe.
This is what I want:
A friend asked me what gift should she give to her boyfriend who is going abroad. Being a typical teen who just got out of high school, I suggested the first edition of Playboy Philippines.
I believe it is something that would be treasured by her boyfriend for decades. Maybe, after 20 years, it would worth like 50 times the original price. That’s if it is still on mint condition which is likely because her boyfriend wouldn’t want to read any of those. Her boyfriend would rather read other types of magazines because he is the type of guy who cannot harm an ant – and he joins talent contests as well. Heheheheh.
Anyhow, my friend realized that it is a bad idea to ask me for ideas for her parting gift.
