True Love Story (horror)

Brace yourself:

A certain rich businessman had a beautiful daughter, who fell in love with a guy who was a cleaner, When the girl's father came to know about their love, he did not like it at all, and so began to protest about it. Now it happened that the two lovers decided to leave their homes for a happy future. The girl's father started searching for the two lovers but could not find them.

At last, he accepted their love and asked them to come back home in a local newspaper. Her father said "If you both come back I will allow you to marry the guy you love, I accept that you loved each other truly."

So in this way, their love won and they returned home. The couple went to
town to shop for the wedding dress. He was dressed in white shirt that day. While he was crossing the road to the other side to get some drinks for his wife, a car came and hit him and he died on the spot. The girl lost her senses. It was only after sometimes that she recovered from her shock. The funeral and cremation was the very next day because he had died horribly.

Two nights later, the girl's mother had a dream in which she saw an old
lady. The old lady asked her mother to wash the blood stains of the guy from her daughter's dress as soon as possible. But her mother ignored the dream. The next night her father had the same dream, he also ignored it. Then when the girl had the same dream the next night, she woke up in fear and told her mother about the dream. Her mother asked her to wash the clothes which have blood stains immediately.

She washed the stains but some remained. Next night she again had the same dream she again washed the stains but some still remained . Next night she again had the same dream and this time the old lady gave her a last warning to wash the blood stain, or else something terrible will happen. This time the girl tried her best to wash the stains, and the clothes nearly tore, but some stains still remained.

She was very tired. In the late evening the same day while she was alone at home, someone knocked the door. When she opened the door she saw the same old lady of her dream standing at her door. She got very scared and fainted. The old lady woke her up... and gave her a blue object, which shocked the girl.. She asked "What is this...?" The old lady replied...
" Gumamit ka ng TIDE, P6.50 na lang, mas pinalaki pa!".

Winning Piece in the University of the Philippines Creative Writing constest

I got to share this to all of you, it's really good..

Its been 4 months since i saw him and talagang
namimiss ko na siya… pero what can i do? it
seems that i have loved the wrong person…. but
still the pain keeps on hurting me and kung
walang
magbibigay ng gamot para dito sa
nararamdaman ko…. baka mamatay na ako….

to give you a background about my life,
everthing seems to be fine except dun sa time
na dumating na sa buhay ko yung hinayupak na
lalake na yon…. hehehehe…. kung curious kayo
about dun sa guy… bestfriend ko po yon kaso
lang iba na ang nangyari as time passes by…..

classmate ko sya nung highschool. pards pa nga
ang tawagan namen…. o db ang sweet? di na ako
iba sa kanya and ganon na ren sya sa aken….
kung di nga lang ako naging babae baka naiuwi
na ako nun sa bahay nila and baka lahat ng
gawaing pang brusko eh ipagawa na nun sa ken
eh….. pero cyempre mukha pa ren naman akong
babae noh!!

highskul cyempre may pr om…. wala cyang date,
wla ren ako…. i know that he wanted to invite
me to be his date pero ang ogag nga kasi nun
kaya the last minute tsaka lang sya nag-ask. he
went to our house… nakamotor po sya and
medyo pawisan pero infairness…. mabango pa
ren….

he ask my permission to see my dress for the
prom…. cyempre para maloka sya sa aken at may
konting surprise… i refuse…. o sige, medyo
na frustrate sya pero hindi yon naging hadlang
para invite nya ko…. sa ganda ko na to…..
cyempre ang dami munang pa-echeng…. hanggang
sa tanungin nya ako kung may date na ba me….
e kung di ba naman siya abnormal eh…. papayag
ba akong makipagdate sa iba eh sya lang ang
gusto ko…. lam mo yon… sarap sampalin…. so
in short, papilit pa ba ako? syempre…..

the night of my life came, i was so pretty sabi
ng nang-uuto kong nanay… pero naniwala lang
ako nang sya na ang nagsabi…. blush ako
ever…. kahit alam kong maganda ako since
birth (hehehehe) iba pa ren yung sa kanya
galing diba?

we enjoyed that night and lalo ko lang
napatunayan sa sarili ko na mahal ko na pala ang
hinayupak na bestfrend ko……

syempre ano pa ba ang sunod na event sa prom
kundi ang graduation na db? the night before

the graduation, we talked on the phone na para
bang it would be the last time na maririnig
namen ang boses ng isat-isa….. ive waited for
the moment na mabanggit nya na may feelings din
sya and hindi naman ako nagkamali…. tinanong
nya ako kung may possibilty daw na maging
kame…. i know na maiinis kayo sa ken dahil
alam nyo ba ang sagot ko? ah, eh…. hindi
pwede kase bestfrends tayo eh…. yung mga anak
na lang naten yung ipag- partner naten…. sa
isip-isip ko…. ang tanga! pano ko nasabi ang
ganong words? pero wala na
akong magagawa….. alam namang bawiin ko pa eh
di nahuli naman ako db? pe ro ang tanga ko
talga….

cyempre college na…. im so proud to say na
napunta naman ako sa magandang school and take
note… pare ho kame ng skul….. ano to?
kailangan bang ituloy ang naudlot na
pagmamahalan namen?…. hehehe….

nagkaboyfriend ako for a year and a half….
minahal ko sya pero there are these conflicts
and problems na di na kayang ayusin…. in
short…. nagbreak kame…..

i guess god meant that to happen kasi yon din
yung time na nagkita kame ng bestfrend ko…..
sa sobrang miss namen ang isa’t-isa…. sabay
na kameng umuwi, kumain, pumasok….. im happy
pero parang lalo ko lang pinahirapan ang sarili
ko dahil my feelings for that guy grows each

and everytime that we are together… buti na
lang magaling akong magtago at magpigil….
hehehe…. bilib kayo noh?…..

one morning, im so busy preparing my project
that would be pass on that same day…. alam
kong dumati ng na sya at nasa likuran ko na ang
mokong pero dah il sobrang pressure sa
project…. gusto ko man syang dambahan…
cyempre mamayang gabi na lang di ba? hehehe….
di ko sya masyadong napansin…..

may inabot syang sulat sa aken and he asked if
i could join him sa lunch…. i said yes….
then, alis na cya…. alam naman kc nyang im
busy…..

when i was about to enter the room, somebody
bumped me and my precious project fell… gusto
ko mang magalet… what can i do db? instead i
ask my prof to give me another chance to do my
project…. naalala ko si mokong…. the lunch
date…. kinuha ko ang cell ko to text him that
i cant come to our meeting…. e kaso…. pag
tinamaan k nga naman ng malas…. check
operator service daw…. i tried to look for
friends or other kakilala pero malas that day
talaga….

and so i took my lunch all by my self….
naalala ko yung letter…. hinanap ko sa bag…
WALA !!!! bumalik me sa corridor praying na
andon pa yung sulat….
wala ren…. god! why?
minsan lang magbigay ng sulat yon…. nawala
pa…. dont know how to tell him about the
letter….

and so days and weeks passed, pag nagkikita
kame… di nya ako pinapansin… ako, i tried
to talk to him pero alam kong may kasalanan ako
pero ganon ba kalaki ang nagawa kong di
pagpunta at ganon na lang ang iwas nya?…
sige… hinayaan ko na lang….

months na ang binilang… i heard that he was
dating a girl from the same school that we are
in… masakit…. na sa iba ko pa narinig na
sila na…. mas masakit na wala na akong halaga
sa kanya…..

basta… ilang araw din yon na ganon ang
nararamdaman ko…. weeks…. months….
gagraduate na po ako…. i wonder what’s
instore for me in my last day in school…. and
so i thought na puntahan yung favorite hang
out namen…. when i was about to get near the
place…. i saw him… with the girl….
umiiyak ang bruha but i cant hear what they are
talking about…. so ive decided to get out of
that place before my tears burst out…. and
then a common frend ang sumalubong sa aken….
saying na buntis ang girl…. syempre…. durog
na durog ang puso ko…. kung kaya nyo lang ma-
imagine yung naramdaman ko…..

the night of that same day…. naloka ang lola
nyo…. nagparamdam ang mokong pagkaraan ng
pagkatagal-tagal na panahon… i thought it was
something good for me… for us…. pero i was
wrong…. so wrong….. he gave me a wedding
invitation and isa ako sa bridesmaids….. the
girl… she was waiting in the car…. o db?
dati
motor lang ngaun… car na….

and so the wedding came…. maganda po ako
nun…. sabi ng nanay ko pero wala ng nagsecond
the motion eh…. so naniwala na lang ako sa
nanay ko…. then, there was this professor who
came to see me…. he handed over a letter with
my name carefully printed on the enveloped….
he said that he looked for the owner of that
letter kaso lang po malaki po ang skul namin
kaya mahirap magkahanapan db? and so nung
nakita nya ang name ko sa invitation, he decided
to bring the letter thinking that it could save
souls… daw….

and so i was about to open the letter when the
priest
ask kung sino daw ang tututol… dedma
ako…. alam namang manggulo pa ko noh….

binasa ko na ang letter….. nakakatouch po
talaga…. he opened up his feelings for me….
hoping na meron din daw akong feelings for
him…. he ask that i f i will show up to our
hang - out the next day after he gave his
letter, then it means that i also have feelings

for him and that he would love me for the rest
of our
lives…. but if i wont…. then he will never
open that topic again…. he pleaded to me na
sana pumunta ako… …

if only i have that letter…. if only i knew
about it…. kung di lang ako clumsy and
carelss to keep
that letter… things would be
diffrent…. if only…..

and so i heard the priest announced the couple
as husband and wife…. ang sakit……

picture taking….. gusto mang sumabog ng
nararamdaman ko…. as you know…. magaling
akong magpigil…. pero masakit po talaga….
sobra……

after the picture taking…… niyakap ako ng
bestfrend ko…. ang higpit…. and teary eyed
nyang cnabi na….

i still love you…….

"A sad story but true. Although it's on Filipino"

Minsan may isang Puta

Tingin ng mga bobong kapitbahay ko puta daw ako. Nagpapagamit, binabayaran. Sabi nila ako daw ang pinakamaganda at pinakasikat sa aming lugar noon. Ang bango-bango ko daw, sariwa at makinis. Di ko alam kung sumpa ito, dahil dito naletse ang kinabukasan ko.

Tara makinig ka muna sa kwento ko,..yosi muna tayo.

Alam mo, maraming lumapit sa akin, nagkagusto, naakit...Ang hirap pag lahat sayo virgin eh. Tinangap ko naman silang tao, bakit kaya nila ako ginago! Masakit alalahanin, iniisip ko nalang na kasi di sila taga rito, siguro talagang ganoon. Tatlong malilibog na foreigners ang namyesta sa katawan ko, na rape daw ako.

Sa tatlong beses akong nagahasa, ang pinakahuli ang di ko malilimutan. Parang maski di ko ginusto ang mga nangyari, hinanap-hanap ko siya. Tinulungan niya kasi akong makalimutan yung mga sadistang Hapon at CoA-kasi ibang-iba ang hagod niya. Umiikoy ang mundo ko sa tuwing ginagamit niya ako, ibang klase siya mag-sorry, lalo pa at kinupkop niya ako at ang mga anak ko.

Parating ang dami-daming regalo--may chocolates, yosi, at ano ka, may datung pa! Nakakaaliw siya, alam kong ginagamit niya lang ako.. pagamit naman ako ng pagamit sa kaniya. Sa kanya namin natutunan mag-ingles, magsulat at magbasa pa! Hanggang ngayon sa twing mabigat ang problema ko, siya ang tinatakbuhan ko. Yun nga lang, lahat ng bagay may kapalit. Noong kinakasama ko siya, guminhawa buhay namin. Sosyal na sosyal kami.

Ewan ko nga ba, akala ko napamahal na ako sa kaniya. Akala ko tuloy-tuloy na kaligayahan namin, yun pala unti-unti niya akong pinapatay. P***ng i**! Sa daming lason na sinaksak niya sa katawan ko, muntik na akong malaspag. Ang dami ng nagsabi ang tanga-tanga ko. Patalsikin ko na daw sa tulong ng mga anak ko. Napalayas ko ang animal pero ang hirap magsimula. Masyado na kaming nasanay sa sarap ng buhay na naranasan namin sa kaniya. Lubog na lubog pa kami sa utang, kulang ata pati kaluluwa namin para ibayad sa mga utang namin.

Sinikap namin lahat maging maganda buhay namin. Ayun, mga nasa Japan, Hong Kong, Saudi mga anak ko. Yung iba nasa U.S. at Europe. Yung iba ayaw umalis sa akin. Halos lahat wala naman silbi, masaya daw sa piling ko, maski amoy usok ako.

Sa dami ng mga anak ko na nagsikap na tulungan ang kalagayan namin, siya din ang dami ng mga anak ko na namamantala sa kabuhayan at kayamanan na itinatabi ko para sa punyetang kinabukasan naming lahat. Dumating ang panahon na di na kami halos makaahon sa hirap ng buhay. Napakahirap dahil nasanay na kami sa ginhawa at sarap.

Ang di ko inaakala ay mismong mga anak ko ang tuluyang sisira sa akin. Napakasakit tanggapin ang malinlang. Akala ko ay makakakita ako ng magiging kasama sa buhay, sa mga ahas na ipinakilala ng mga anak ko, Hindi pala! Ang tanga ko talaga! Binugaw ako ng mga sarili kong mga anak. Kapalit ng kwarta at pansamantalang ginhawa nanais nilang matamasa.

Wala na akong nagawa dahil sa sobrang pagmamahal ko sa aking mga anak. Wala akong ibang yaman kundi ganda ko. Pinagamit ko nalang ng pinagamit ang sarili ko, basta maginhawa lang mga anak ko. Usap-usapan na ako ng mga kapitbahay ko. May nanghihinayang, namumuhi, at naawa. Puta na kase ang isang magandang tulad ko.

Alam mo, gusto ko sanang tumigil sa pagpuputa kaso ang laki talaga ng letseng utang ko eh. Palaki pa ng palaki. Kulang na kulang. Paano nalang ang mga anak kong naiwan sa aking punyetang puder? Paka di na ako balikan o bisitahin ng mga nag-abroad kong mga anak. Hindi na importante ung laspagin man ang ganda ko. Malaman nila na gagawin ko ang lahat para sa kanila. Sa tuwing titingin ako sa salamin, alam ko maganda pa rin ako.

Meron pa din ang bilib sa akin. Napag-uusapan pa din. Sa tuwing nakikita ko ang mukha ko sa salamin, nakikita ko ang mga anak ko. Tutulo na lang ang mga luha ko ng di ko namamalayan. Ang gagaling ng mga anak ko, namamayagpag kahit saan sila pumunta. Mahusay sa kahit anung gawain. Tama man o mali. Proud ako sa kanila! Kaso sila, kabaligtaran ang nararamdaman para sa akin.

Sa dami ng mga anak ko, iilan lang ang may malasakit sa akin. May malasakit man nahihilaw. Ni hindi nga ako kinikilalang ina. Halos lahat sila galit sa isa’t isa. Walng gustong magtulungan, naghihilahan pa. Ang dami ko nang pasakit na tinitiis pero walang sasakit pa nung sarili kong mga anak ang nagbugaw sa akin. Kinapital ang laspag na ganda ko. Masyado silang nasanay sa sarap ng buhay. Minsan sa pagtingin ko sa salamin, ni hindi ko na nakilala ang sarili ko.

Darating na naman ang pasko, sana maalala naman ako ng mga anak ko. Isang buwan pa magbabagong taon na. Natatakot ako sa taong darating. Ngayon pa lang usap-usapan na ang susunod na pagbubugaw ng ilan sa mga anak ko. Sana may magtanggol naman sa akin, ipaglaban naman nila ako. Gusto kong sumigaw... “INA NIYO AKO...MAHALIN NIYO NAMAN AKO!”

Sige, duma-drama na ako. Masisira na make-up ko nito eh...

Salamat ha pinakinggan mo ako.

Ay sorry, di ko nasabi pangalan ko...

Pilipinas nga pala ako.

Idiotic Millionaire Contestants

One of my aunt sent me this through email. I don't really know if this is true... no one over 30 years old is that stupid!!! And besides, don't they have any screenings? Stupid people shouldn't be allowed in activities that require thinking... they'll just embarass themselves! :P

Here's the Story:



NEW YORK - Idaho resident Kathy Evans brought humiliation to her friends and family Tuesday when she set a new standard for stupidity with her appearance on the popular TV show, 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire..'

It seems that Evans, a 32-year-old wife and mother of two, got stuck on the first question, and proceeded to make what fans of the show are dubbing 'the absolute worst use of lifelines ever.'

After being introduced to the show's host Meredith Vieira, Evans assured her that she was ready to play, whereupon she was posed with an extremely easy $100 question. The question was: 'Which of the following is the largest?'

A) A Peanut
B) An Elephant
C) The Moon
D) Hey, who you calling large?

Immediately Mrs. Evans was struck with an all consuming panic as she realized that this was a question to which she did not readily know the answer.

'Hmm, oh boy, that's a toughie,' said Evans, as Vieira did her level best to hide her disbelief and disgust. 'I mean, I'm sure I've heard of some of these things before, but I have no idea how large they would be.'

Evans made the decision to use the first of her three lifelines, the 50/50. Answers A and D were removed, leaving her to decide which was bigger, an elephant or the moon. However, faced with an incredibly easy question, Evans still remained unsure.

'Oh! It removed the two I was leaning towards!' exclaimed Evans. 'Darn. I think I better phone a friend.'
Using the second of her two lifelines on the first question, Mrs.. Evans asked to be connected with her friend Betsy, who is an office assistant.

'Hi Betsy! How are you? This is Kathy! I'm on TV!' said Evans, wasting the first seven seconds of her call. 'Ok, I got an important question. Which of the following is the largest? B, an elephant, or C, the moon. 15 seconds hun.'
Betsy quickly replied that the answer was C, the moon. Evans proceeded to argue with her friend for the remaining ten seconds.

'Come on Betsy, are you sure?' said Evans. 'How sure are you? Duh, that can't be it.'

To everyone's astonishment, the moronic Evans declined to take her friend's advice and pick 'The Moon.'
'I just don't know if I can trust Betsy. She's not all that bright. So I think I'd like to ask the audience,' said Evans.
Asked to vote on the correct answer, the audience returned 98% in favor of answer C, 'The Moon.' Having used up all her lifelines, Evans then made the dumbest choice of her life.

'Wow, seems like everybody is against what I'm thinking,' said the too-stupid-to-live Evans. 'But you know, sometimes you just got to go with your gut. So, let's see. For which is larger, an elephant or the moon, I'm going to have to go with B, an elephant. Final answer.'

Evans sat before the dumbfounded audience, the only one waiting with bated breath, and was told that she was wrong, and that the answer was in fact, C, 'The Moon.'

Here's another one:



If I were them, I would have died of embarassment. Do you think there is a gene for stupidity? hmmm...

A VIP trip on MV doulos




The trip happened when the MV doulos arrived at the PIER in manila.

A brief history on MV doulos.
MV doulos is the oldest passenger ship that was made.

The Beginning!
It was originally build as a freighter named Medina, and still owned by Mallory Steamship Co., in the United states. Launched on August 22, 1914.
Medina has a sister ship named "NECHES".
NECHES has a short career as she sank following a collision of the coast of Deven, England in 1918.

The Fall!
In 1948, a Panamanian company, Cia Nivera San Miguel, Acquired Medina. The following year, she was converted to a migrant ship at La Spezia, Italy and named "ROMA". However, Roma does not appear to have been very successful in this new role and soon laid up and offered for sail.

The Revolution!
In 1952 Roma was sold to Glacoma Costa Fu Andres (Linea "C") in Italy and named "FRANCA C." Her original steam engine was replaced by a diesel engine and she was remodeled again, this time to a first class luxury liner. She was initially employed to sail around South America. Later Franca C. served as a cruise ship and sailed from Venice to Greek Islands and other Mediterranean ports. There were occasional trips to the black sea or across the Atlantic. At this stage of her career several alteration were made to the ship. The most important of these occurred in 1970 when a new flat diesel engine was installed.

The New ERA
In 1977 due to emergence of new cruise ships, it was decided that Franca C. would finally sent to the scrap yard. Several representative from the German Company 'Gute Bucher Fur Allo'(Good Book For All) were on board for her final cruise. They had been looking for a suitable ship to operate but have been unsuccessful in their search. After further investigation they have decided to purchased the vessel and on November 4, 1977 a formal agreement was signed. Franca C was renamed to "DOULOS", a Greek word meaning 'servant'. This was the seventh time that this historic ship has been rescued from the scrap yard. Following he purchased she was dry docked at Genoa, Italy were a number of repairs have been completed, including the replacement of the large section of the bow. The swimming pool on the boat deck was removed and a large canopy was erected for housing of extensive book fair. On June 3, 1978 after being fitted out in Bremen, Germany, Doulos embarked upon her new service as a floating book fair and conference center.

WORLD RECORD
MV Doulos is in the Guiness Book of Records as the Oldest Active Passenger Ocean-Going Ship, Built in 1914 in the USA.
