Paris Hilton's Vow of Celibacy

Only for a year however.

A while after the Stupid Girls blog where I maligned Paris Hilton as if I really knew everything about her, I've been bumping into a few pieces of news from TV and online about Paris' morally upright side. The first one I've encountered was on ET, where she was shown spending time with a devoted fan who had cancer. She said that it felt great helping one of her fans fulfil her dream. Another one was not actually a display of charity, but an implication from her previous controversial relationship with a guy also named Paris. I'm not sure if this was just one of the reasons or the sole reason that Paris Hilton broke up with Paris. All I heard was that she was enraged after discovering, during a dinner meeting or something with her then boyfriend's family, that he has not told his family about their relationship even if they have been together for a long time. It seemed to me that Hilton was expecting a formal relationship where families of both parties are aware of it.

What did I learn from this? A person's whole character should not be judged just by particular/selected things that he did or is doing. It's trite, but I fail to consider it when it comes to dealing with people. At first, all I heard about Paris Hilton is her sluttishness in One Night in Paris porn vid and her stupidity and high-maintenance lifestyle in The Simple Life. Aside from that, I did not care about knowing her beyond that. And that was wrong. This human being has a lot more than that. First impressions do last. But they should not be allowed to last forever.

So below is another 'good news' about Paris Hilton. Yes, a one-year vow of no-sex-but-just-kissing may not make Paris a saint. But at least she did something based on personal ethics. It showed that she's not all about sex. She has a cognitive mind that can develop a strategy to determine whether her current boyfriend loves her or is just looking for sexual experience from the Paris Hilton. She's not stupid after all.

WTF?! Paris Preaches Abstinence

There's a Hilton that won't be checking in any overnight guests this year.

SEARCH

Paris Hilton--yes, that Paris Hilton--has sworn off sex. For 12 months, anyway.

In an interview for the September issue of British GQ, the star whose oeuvre includes The Simple Life and One Night in Paris set out to dispel rumors that she's a sure thing when it comes to taking relationships to that next level.

"People think I sleep with everyone, but I'm not like that," Hilton told the magazine. "Kissing is all I do.

"I'm not having sex for a year. I've decided...I'll kiss, but nothing else."

The hotel heiress, who seems to change boyfriends faster than shoes, appears excited about the effect her vow of chastity could have on her personal life.

"The reason so many of my relationships don't work is guys are like, 'Hey, what's going on? It's been like four months and I'm only getting a kiss here,' " said Hilton, who was partying with on-again love interest Stavros Niarchos on Sean "Diddy" Combs' yacht this week after attending the rap mogul's annual White Party at the Nikki Beach Club in Saint-Tropez.

While there's no word on what Niarchos has to say about Hilton's new resolution, she sounded as if there's some method to her madness--she has thought this one over and knows exactly what she's doing.

"I feel good about it," the 25-year-old told GQ. "I like the way guys so crazy when they can't have sex with you. If he can't have you, he stays interested. The moment he has you, he's gone. Unless he is really in love with you."

She went on to say that, as far as she knows, she only plans to walk down the aisle once and that, when she goes on dates, she prefers to be treated "like a princess."

As Hilton tones down the sex, her doppelganger is upping the salacious quotient. Professional Paris look-alike Natalie Reid is giving Playboy readers an eyeful in the September issue. Hilton herself says that she has been turning down offers to disrobe for the men's magazine since she was 17.

Oblivion Part 2

I'm back soon, as vowed by me.

So a while after that BlueVoice blog, I was planning to post about the brief change in our group's independent practicum project and about Manny Pacquiao's win (again!) and how much I hated him even more. But it seemed I did not find the timing, or right mood, to blog about it. Perhaps I was too worried of academic concerns and school duties.

Oh by the way, I was "appointed" the president of our sub-department. Appointed, huh? A president should be elected. Then the elected president 'appoints' people to be members of his cabinet. Whatever... I don't even have a cabinet. Just the rest of the officers. It's a good thing that I get along with them easily. Just last Monday, we had a meeting and discussed the annual acquaintance party, which will be held after all. At first, I planned not to have one because it really doesn't serve its purpose and is expensive. But then I realized from the other officers that many (probably most) of the AICG students are looking forward to an acquaintance party so they can get to meet, and perhaps welcome, the first years. I hope this hospitality is genuine.

So I should be moving on to the two things I should've blogged about ages ago.

First about our project. After contemplating on BlueVoice, we decided to look for another proposal. Honestly, I forgot our reasons for dropping BlueVoice. Maybe because it was risky and expensive. So anyway, we were debating on Game of the Generals with higher AI, or Source Code Similarity Detection. I was more inclined to the latter, but the other two were more interested with the game. Even though there was a majority, we still decided to seek for the moderator's recommendation. And she preferred the Source Code Similarity Detection. Victory for me! But it was useless victory shortly afterwards. When we had a consultation for our supposed-to-be-adviser for the source code thingy, he revealed to us that a better existing system, called MOSS (Measure of Software Similarity), is free after all. We thought it was charging. So we had to drop it. No significance, no approval, no project.

We looked into the BlueVoice idea again. We were able to discuss it with a faculty member, who then suggested that it can be worth a project. So we built on that idea, prepared the first draft, and slightly changed its name, to BlueTalk. The moderator said that it can be promising. Only a few things were required to be revised in our drafts. Now, we are working on the final draft of our proposal. Hopefully, it's on its way to full approval.

I'm not in the mood to lambaste Pacman right now. Besides, it would take a lot of words that I can separate them to another post. And that's what I'll do...

Oblivion

Wow. The start of my (hopefully) final year in AdZU was a humongous pain in the ASS that kept me from wasting time on blogging. Well, actually, my layouting "duties" in the college magazine was the royal burden, which cut majorly into my academic and family life. The poky office PC and late articles just made everything worse. At least just last Wednesday, I finally got rid of the printout dummy and CD contaning the Corel file and all the fonts we have in the Beacon PC and sent them to the printing press miles away from here. No major layouting for the next few months...

My problem now is catching up with my studies. So far, I still haven't opened and tested any of the GL files I have ALREADY downloaded ages ago. The same thing with the assembly codes for another class. But I'm more interested with the former. Assembly... is... no words can contain my frustration with it. This primitive computer language is so far the hardest to learn. It has the weirdest syntax and function words, like MOV, INT (w/c usually is a data type in other languages), ah, al, ax, bl, dx, LEA (who the hell is she anyway?!), and other blah blah blah.

I have to pause here. Firefox said that it needs to restart the PC for updating, my Dad is asking me to cook breakfast, and I can't wait to savor another cup of coffee. I'll post soon... ^_^

BlueVoice It Is

The three paths seeking a final project have finally met at an intersection. And at the crossroads was BlueVoice, as coined by one of the group mempers. This project that the three of us will attempt to successfully develop is a mobile application that, if installed on both cellphones, would enable the two users to talk with each other through bluetooth - for free! But the distance is limited however. I've heard that the latest bluetooth technology can wirelessly connect phones that are up to 100 meters away from each other. That's not bad. But it is definitely expensive.

We can test it, however, with the available cellphones that have a bluetooth range of 10 meters. If, a big IF, it works, it may also work with the 100-meter bluetooth range.

When it was first suggested to me, I was skeptic. But when my co-members assured that it is possible, I conceded. An engineering teacher even suggested some ideas on voice transmission via bluetooth, which convinced me even more that we can do this.

I'm a little nervous about this. But I feel excitement too. I just hope that this excitement wouldn't be squashed when, just in case, we would realize at the worst possible time (like on the next semester) that the project is implausible. We, especially the skeptic I, would just have to stick with optimism and determination to fuel BlueVoice's successful development.

We still haven't written a formal project proposal, which is due soon. So right now I cannot really say that BlueVoice is it. But I do hope that we will be taking this one.

First Day High! Kinda...

The countdown clock to graduation day has finally started to tick last Tuesday. I just really hope that the clock would end on time and would not delay. But our group still hasn't settled on a final project! At least we did narrow down our options.

No Automated Lumber Species Recognition. Image processing is a field too risky for us to experiement. We feel that a school year is not enough research time for such project. Actually, it would only take less than five months (which comprise the second sem) to program the software; the five months before that, which is this semester, are reserved for proposal and intensive research. Our grades are at stake here!

No Gunbound-like mobile game with networking capabilities. Well, at least for me. I don't want to venture into mobile application development. It's like everyone wants to take a mobile software project because cellphones, especially those MMS-capable, seem to be perpetually the "in-thing." Whatever...

No Sudoku puzzle mobile game version. It might be rejected by the moderator for being simple and not-so-challenging for a group of three. But we may toughen up the rules so that we would be forced to develop another algorithm to solve the puzzle.

But right now, we're poking the Automated Tournament Matching suggested by a Computer Center staff. I still don't know the details so I have to meet and discuss about it with this guy. I heard that the manual tournament matching is tedious, so automating it would be a delight to the slothful modern people. What can we do? The computers are invented to do our bidding and they are here to stay - and keep on upgrading to keep us sedentary.

I can feel school again! And it's not a good feeling. The first two school days has burned a lot of money for photocopying requirements. Ahhhh... the smell of photocopies fresh out of the xerox machine. I miss it. But I loathe it even more.

Hey! This site is nice. I discovered this while I was really bored, surfing in Friendster. It's the Fourth Year enrollment day. I have to wait until afternoon for my freakin' scholarship form. Got nothin' else to do but wait. And I'm not patient!

So I tried to entertain myself by taking a few tests in this website. Some results were shocking and exagerrated. But some were kinda true. It's a good thing that the site generates an automatic code of each test result so I can post it here...

WHAT'S YOUR RELIGIOUS PHILOSOPHY?

You are an Atheist

When it comes to religion, you're a non-believer (simple as that). You prefer to think about what's known and proven. You don't need religion to solve life's problems. Instead, you tend to work things out with logic and philosophy.

What's Your Religious Philosophy?

The Truth: Wow! That's too much! I'm not an atheist. But I'm not religious nor even spiritual. Somewhere between. But I'm more inclined in believing in God because health studies show that believers, especially devotees, have longer life-span . The reason for this is perhaps not the existence of a higher being that rewards them with such, but more on the optimism that faith brings.

You Are Not Scary

Everyone loves you. Isn't that sweet?

How Scary Are You?

The Truth: HAHAHA! Of course I'm not scary. I'm a good boy. When you're nice, I'm nice. When you're a bitch, especially with annoyingly THICK lips, I'm a demon!

............................................
HOW OPEN-MINDED ARE YOU?

You Are 72% Open Minded

You are a very open minded person, but you're also well grounded. Tolerant and flexible, you appreciate most lifestyles and viewpoints. But you also know where you stand firm, and you can draw that line. You're open to considering every possibility - but in the end, you stand true to yourself.

How Open Minded Are You?

The Truth: 72% is not bad. I cannot be too liberated with some topics, like drug abuse, abortion and war. But at least I know and am proud for being open-minded, not like others I know. I noticed too that all of the narrow/close-minded people I've met (some of them are actually my "friends(?)") are really stupid! Stupid, stupid, stupid! DIE, stupid!

............................................
HOW SINFUL ARE YOU?

Your Deadly Sins

Wrath: 60%

Lust: 40%

Sloth: 40%

Envy: 20%

Greed: 20%

Gluttony: 0%

Pride: 0%

Chance You'll Go to Hell: 26%

You will die, after conquering the world as an evil dictator.

How Sinful Are You?

The Truth: Wow. The statistics are kinda true. Anger/Hatred is my most intense sin. I throw it at lot of people. But I can easily forgive. But there are those who are unforgivable. And I wish them death...

Preserving Text Jokes

What a surprise. Just when I thought I'd have to sing or dance for being late, the morning session was cancelled. Thank God! I didn't care that I had to run to the canteen in the middle of the campus to buy a burger so I can have change for tricycle fare just to discover that the vehicle had already left when I returned to the gate. Maybe he misunderstood me by thinking that I was suggesting not to pay him at all because for him I seemed to be rushing because I was late. Whatever...

So finally I am taking advantage of the surprise free time for blogging the text jokes that I just cannot delete from the very limited digital storage and, eventually, from my mind. Thanks to the senders.

Chaka Niya

At last! I have acquired the full lyrics of my favorite gag song by watching and listening thoughout its music video I've found in YouTube. Where did they get this video? I'd love to have one of my own but videos cannot be downloaded from the website. But at least I can watch it.

The lyrics are more hilarious than I thought. Before, I only knew the chorus. Now I know the rest, and they're funnier.




Chaka Niya
by Ghurang Guneta

Nagulat ako nung unang makita ka
Kakatakot ka, gurang
At ngayo'y napipilas pa
Ang balat sa pisngi
Na binubuni, o ako'y nangati

Kailangan bang sabihin
Lumayo ka na sa akin
Dahil pag sinaksak kita
Magdurugo ka rin

Chaka niyang bading, kakainis
Mukha'y nanggagalit
Chaka niyang bading, kakahiya
Ulong naging nguso
Kung buhay man ang mga papa
Wala ring magtatagal
Ang nagmamahal tumatalon sa tulay dahil
Chaka niya

At sa hatinggabi ay nangingisay na lang
Pag minamasdan ang larawan mo
Pag siya'y humalik sa laki ng nguso niya
Hihikain ka sa buong magdamag

At ang laging sasabihin
Lumayo ka nga sa akin
Pag hataw ko ng tubong ito
Mangingisay ka rin

Chaka niyang bading, kakainis
Mukha'y nanggagalit
Chaka niyang bading, kakahiya
Ulong naging nguso
Kung buhay man ang mga papa
Wala ring magtatagal
Ang nagmamahal tumatalon sa tulay dahil
Chaka niya

(Ha ha ha ha a a...)

Chaka niyang bading, kakainis
Mukha'y nanggagalit
Chaka niyang bading, kakahiya
Ulong naging nguso
Kung buhay man ang mga papa
