pagmumuni-muni

Imagine two old men fighting over a sweet candy bar. You may think that these two men are acting childish, or that they don't know what to do about the situation, or that they're just crazy.

Any candy bar is not worthy of being fought over, especially between two old, life-experienced men. My god, there are lots of other candy bars arond the world. One can even find a better candy bar than that candy bar that's being fought over. Those two men are already mature, and knows well enough about how to deal with situations like that. Fighting over a piece of candy bar is a waste of time, waste of energy, and therefore, not practical.

The candy bar is like Helen of Sparta; it's not worthy of being fought over by the two old men symbolized by the two kingdoms: Troy and Mycenae (with Sparta) No matter how beautiful Helen may seem to be, she's still not worthy of being fought over in the Trojan war because of two reasons.

First, Helen is not the only woman living in the world that time. My god, if she was the only woman living in the world, then the "act" of war is understandable (at least for me). But there were in fact a lot of women living during that period. And maybe, who knows, one of them may be better than Helen.

Secondly, the act was not practical. My god, they sacrificed a lot of lives just to get Helen back. They wasted their time fighting; knowing that in the end they would still die. They could have done other alternatives to get Helen. The two kingdoms, knowing that they have their advisers, beliefs, experiences, gods, and all, could have just allowed themselves to THINK first, and compromise over the matter. And who knows? After compromising, both kingdoms could establish a deal, and therefore no one would get hurt nor die.

See? it's all about being practical. No matter how sweet and tasty a candy bar may be, it is still not worthy of being fought over--especially by two old wise and experienced men.

Ang sampung epekto ng sobrang exposure sa mga makabasag-ulo na mga exams:
1. Wala ka nang ibang inisip kundi ang isang item ng test na sigurado kang makakapagbagsak sa'yo.
2. Lagi mong tinatanong sa sarili mo kung bakit ang bilis ng oras habang sinasagutan mo ang physics at math exams.
3. Sa sobra-sobrang dami mga concepts na pilit mong ipinapasok sa kukote mo, untiunti itong tumatakas papalayo sa gitna ng iyong level of thinking. (ano daw?)
4. Minsan akala mo 'di ka na tao.
5. Gusto mong kumain, pero 'di pwede.
6 Hindi mo na maintindihan ang takbo ng teleseryeng inaabangan mo araw-araw.
7. Sisitahin ka ng mga titser dahil kumanta ka ng "Isang Linggong Pag-ibig" ng buong puso't kaluluwa.
8. Nahuhuli ka ng iba't ibang tao na sumasayaw ng "Dadaanin ko Nalang sa Kanta" kasama ang mga kapwa mong exposed sa makabasag-ulo na mga exams.
9. Wala ka nang pakialam kung may nagtetake pa ba ng mga exams o wala na, basta't makakanta at makasayaw ka lang.
10. At huli sa lahat, sobra ka kung tumawa kapag nakakita ng isang taga-admin na natumba dahil daw sa karma kasi pumitas ng pinagbabawal na rambutan.
