the same love

How can the same love
That made me so happy
Make me so sad?
I don`t understand
How could the same eyes
That used to be laughing
Cry in the night?
It doesn`t seem right at all

Remembering the nights we held onto each other,
The times you told me you`d never love another
(Remember when) I was all you ever needed
Where are you when I need you now?

Sunny days
Have left me standing in the rain (standing in the rain)
Can somebody tell me how?

-We've run out of words

We've run out of time  We've run out of reasons  Really, why are we together?  We both know it's over, baby  Bottom line  It's best we don't even talk at all  

Go ME na To.. ( Magazine So Cady..)

CANDY magazine was launched June 2005 to showcase Irish creativity alongside international equivalents to a worldwide audience. Since then 10 downloadable pdf format issues have been released to local and international acclaim and our focus has changed somewhat to showcasing and promoting great creatives and their work wherever they may be.

CANDY is, and will always be, digitally produced and distributed as we believe that, above even the obvious ecological benefits, this is the quickest, easiest and most cost effective way of making sure as many people as possible see the people and projects featured in our magazine. Once we publish a new issue and upload it’s there for anyone to download, simple.

Why love it so..

says another girl,At first, I thought that this magazine was too colorful for me so I just ignored it. Later, I was so intrigued why my daughter loves to read it so yesterday, I tried to scanned the pages of Candy magazine.

I consider this magazine a both a fashion magazine and an advertising magazine. Teen styles from shoes, pants, dresses, bags, to accessories are found here in this magazine, most of them very expensive for an average teenager. But the designs are really hip and cool.

This magazine is full of ads that is why I consider this an advertising magazine. The ads are just too much in every page that there are just very few and limited articles written on each most of the time. There are few tips and tricks on how-to’s but on every page there are always ads!

Maybe these ads are what making this magazine alive but I suggest the company should write more valuable articles more than ads.

I dnt have any candy magz but fortunately, have friend who happened to be a collector of the candy magz.. her name is Nette and whenever she bought new one I will just ask permission and there I go read and got glued for quite an hour.. =) lol!- yanxz

From Best Friend to Boyfriend

When BF starts to take on a different meaning, what do you do?

by: Alan Abeleda

posted on January 21, 2010 06:00 pm

The love math can be so much fun when you're a star on primetime TV. It's all about addition, multiplication, and even a little division. Check these out: Vanessa + Dan, Nate + Blair, Serena + Nate, Blair + Chuck.

In real life, as in the reel world, falling in love with your best friend is a set-up every true romantic would call a win/win situation. For starters, that awkward getting-to-know-you phrase is one less major roadblock to contend with. But getting to the point where you call each other "babe" (and I don't mean the lovable pig) and take turn sipping from same glass of iced tea doesn't always happen in a flash. It took the Upper East Siders three seasons before Dan realized (with Olivia's help) he was really in love with V. And Chuck finally getting together with Blair was no walk in the park, so why should it be any easier for you?

But first things first... Before attempting to turn a male friend into a boyfriend, you must first acknowledge that romance can grow between you and him. Can you see yourself holding his hand (and not just to arm wrestle) or kissing him without cringing at the thought?

But admitting that love can happen between really good friends is tough. Proceed with caution or that giant leap of faith might turn into a painful belly flop. When you say "I could fall for (fill in his name)," you've got to mean it. Not because you mom thinks he's great or your girlfriends think he's cute, but because you think he's cool.

Don't misread his buddy language. Being best friends doesn't always come with a free pass to "Sweethearts Ville." Believe me, this is a thought you need to understand before you even dream about becoming his girlfriend.

"But he understands me like no other guy, accepts me for me, and he's always there," you say. But does that give you license to profess your undying love for him? Nope. It's pathetic and the odds of you getting burned are high. Sure, the situation can swing either way: Your bud may get a flash of inspiration and realize he's in love with you too. Either that of you hear him start to say "I really like you, but..." Ouch.

Maybe what he feels for you is a case of brotherly love. Or maybe you're just feeling lonely and bored, and he just happens to be there. If this is the case, you know you both deserve much better than just settling for each other.

Echos of a MAN's mind...

Would you mind if I touched you?
I mean, really touched you..
I mean, touch you where it matters..
heart, spirit, and soul
your inner woman
the part of you that hide that is sacred?
Would you let me build an altar there,
where we can worship together-as one
transparent and unashamed?

And would you mind if I looked at you?
I mean really looked at you...
Past the you
that you've so carefully groomed for me to see?
Past the tough exterior,deep within your heart
where it's soft, warm and vulnerable?
Would you let me fill you with reassurances? until I felt your defenses?
yield in the pain of my hand
and respond to my invitation to love?
and then I'd like to hear you,
I mean, really hear u,
So... would u mind if I tasted you?
I mean really taste u..
the bitterness of you..
the sweetness of u..
all the flavors of u..
that make you so rare..
and unforgettable...

I'd like to savor your love
like a rich dessert..
and all that would be left
is the scent of you..
By the way would u mind if I breathed in ur essence?ur life?
I promise I'd return it..
and treasure the memory of living
through your senses/..
for then I would totally know you..
and know how to love you in return...

Prologue
When the war of the beasts brings about the world’s end
The goddess descends from the sky
Wings of light and dark spread afar
She guides us to bliss, her gift everlasting.


Act I
Infinite in mystery is the gift of the goddess
We seek it thus, and take it to the sky
Ripples form on the water’s surface
The wandering soul knows no rest.

Act II
There is no hate, only joy
For you are beloved by the goddess
Hero of the dawn, Healer of worlds
Dreams of the morrow hath the shattered soul
Pride is lost
Wings stripped away, the end is nigh.

Act III
My friend, do you fly away now?
To a world that abhors you and I?
All that awaits you is a somber morrow
No matter where the winds may blow
My friend, your desire
Is the bringer of life, the gift of the goddess
Even if the morrow is barren of promises
Nothing shall forestall my return.

Act IV
My friend, the fates are cruel
There are no dreams, no honor remains
The arrow has left the bow of the goddess
My soul, corrupted by vengeance
Hath endured torment, to find the end of the journey
In my own salvation
And your eternal slumber
Legend shall speak
Of sacrifice at world’s end
The wind sails over the water’s surface
Quietly, but surely.

Act V
Even if the morrow is barren of promises
Nothing shall forestall my return
To become the dew that quenches the land
To spare the sands, the seas, the skies
I offer thee this silent sacrifice.

Right of Reply to Criticism or Adverse Statements

A right of reply is not popular with the media, but it has found increasing favour with tribunals and other standard-setting bodies internationally. Journalists may have to accept that this may be the least-worst option. The alternative to balancing views may be to be held responsible for endorsing the opinions of one candidate or another.

The best way of avoiding an enforced right of reply is clearly to ensure balance in coverage. Even the generally unregulated US media have been obliged to comply with a Fairness Doctrine in election reporting that ensures that all the main parties get a say in news and current affairs programmes. Broadcasting stations are obliged to offer "reasonable opportunity for the discussion of conflicting views". The wording is important: "reasonable" rather than equal. Coverage is not measured with a stopwatch. It is simply that all sides of the debate get heard.

Sometimes this general approach of fairness is not adequate. The personal attack rule under the US Communication Act requires that if an attack is made on the personal qualities or character of an individual, then that person should be notified and given an opportunity to respond.

In the South African election of 1994 there was a provision, slightly broader than the US personal attack rule, but based on the same principle. This is a common rule in election laws and regulations and provides a sensible opportunity to achieve balanced debate. It stated that if a criticism were levelled against a political party without that party being given the opportunity to respond at the time, or without its view being reflected, then the broadcasting licensee was obliged to give the party a reasonable opportunity to respond to the criticism.

If within 48 hours of the beginning of the vote a broadcaster intended to broadcast a programme in which a particular political party was criticized, then the broadcasting licensee should give the party the opportunity to respond within the programme, or as soon as possible afterwards. These provisions only applied to coverage under the editorial control of the broadcaster and not to party election broadcasts or political advertisements.

Brazil has a right of reply provision that applies specifically to knowingly making false statements in the course of direct access broadcasts. In this case the offended party can appeal to a judge. If the application is successful the complainant wins an amount of free time for rebutting the false statement that is then subtracted from the amount of free time granted to the offender.

In life, there's many things that we have to learn to let go. We have to let go of situations, things, memories, people and even ourselves.

It's easy to form an attachment to people and things. When you've formed an attachment to people and things, it can be a very painful experience and feeling when you realized that it's time to let go. Even the mere thought of not having that person or thing in your life just squeezes your heart in pain.

However, there are times where you or that person has changed to the extent that it's necessary to let go of the relationship or friendship, so that each of you can fulfill your life path.

Letting go of your past and memories are also extremely hard. Even though old memories can be tormenting, yet you might hold on to the past and refuse to move forward. However, by refusing to let go of the painful past, it'll serve as a roadblock to love.

Letting go of your old self and the process of letting the new you emerge can be one of the scariest experiences in your life. But by leaving behind your old self and taking a leap of faith into the unknown, it might just reveal what you are truly capable of becoming.

I Love You

Just three little words
don't seem like enough
for someone whose smile
still brightens my day,
whose touch can make me forget
the rest of the world.

They don't seem like enough
for someone who's always been there
to celebrate with me
when everything goes my way
and to hold my hand
when my whole world
seems to fall apart.

But even though "I Love You"
can't express the depth
of my feelings for you.
I hope you know what's in my heart.
Because loving you
means more to me
than anything in the world
and it always will.

A Table Set For Two

Candles flicker softly on a table set for two,
There's no one on the earth tonight except for me and you.

A nice romantic dinner and a bottle of chilled wine,
And we are here together in a moment stopped in time.

A love so few have ever known and this is its birth night,
Alone within our little world, you and I and candlelight.

So soon we will set free the feelings that we want to share.
And I am held here spellbound by your laughter in the air.

Thoughts of love like falling leaves,
Swirling in the autumn breeze,

Flow in our minds and in our eyes,
A tender look and longing sighs,

We touch and as the fire starts,
That we have kindled in our hearts,

We kiss and hear the angels sing,
As heavens gift to me you bring,

No more to live my life alone,
And in your soul I found my home,

At peace within your loving arms,
Captivated by your charms,

And happily I'd die for you,
Here at this table set for two.

~ When you break up, your whole identity is shattered. It's like death. ~

~ The scars you can't see are the hardest to heal. ~

~ They say that time heals all wounds but all it's done so far is give me more time to think about how much I miss you. ~

~ Turn your wounds into wisdom. ~

~ I expanded with the joy of your love and presence but now that you're gone I just feel bloated. ~

~ Invisible tears are the hardest to wipe away. Just let it out, my friend. ~

~ Breaking up is a natural evolution when you try to figure out what you want in life. If you're with an individual who isn't moving in the same direction and at the same rate that you are, it ain't going to work. ~

~ It is foolish to tear one's hair in grief, as though sorrow would be made less by baldness. ~

~ You left, and my heart is a ceaseless sermon of loneliness. ~

~ Where you used to be, there is a hole in the world, which I find myself constantly walking around in the daytime, and falling in at night. I miss you like hell. ~

Expectancy Violation Theory

Judee Burgoon, " Expectancy Violation Theory" tackles the violation valence, expectancy, and communicator reward valence. Edward Hall discussed proxemics, which consisted of four personal zones in which the Americans correspond with each other:

a) intimate distance

b) personal distance

c) social distance

d) public distance.

EVT is practical in the real world and applicable for many reasons. This theory helps in how to change your relationship and keep it alive. The breaking of norms, such as getting into the proxemics zones of friends is not always necessarily bad, and can stimulate a friendship.

The theory also teaches you not to break the proxemics zones with certain people. The reward valence is practical although sounding shallow, it is true. You are friends with people that can do things for you, although you also do things for you friends. When some one changes their normal response or look at you in an unexpected way, it now can be proven why. Also this theory proves why or why not people do certain body gestures in certain instances.

EVT offers a " soft determinism" rather than hard-core universal laws. Her belief that too many factors affect communication to allow us ever to discover simple cause-and-effect relationships. Added that ' expectancy' is predicted to occur rather than what is desired.

For Griffin: EVT described the word " expectancy" as a situation that your trying to accomplish or simply your desire. That personal space depends on each person's cultural norms. This also link the social status of communicators. In their age/sex/place-of-birth and also each physical appearance.

Example for a Violation theory

A shy girl went to a party , then there was a guy who got so close to her, talking his very private life. It is expected that she would feel not comfortable since they never established relationship with this guy.

Another example to help understand Expectancy Violations Theory can be demonstrated when Pokwang goes for a job interview. She feels that he is not getting very positive feedback from the potential employer, so she knows he should not violate expectancies and further hurt his chances of impressing the interviewer. However, if Pokwang suddenly felt more confident about the relationship she was building with the interviewer, she might consciously violate his or her expectations. She could pick up a picture on his or her desk and comment positively on the picture, hoping that this act would make him positively stick out in the employer's mind later.

Synopsis- Social Penetration Theory

Irwin Altham & Dalmas Taylor proposed a " social penetration theory" that explains how relational closeness develops. This psychological theory, as with many ithers is applied in the context of interpersonal relationships such as communications. Develops the penetration deeper and deeper into an intimate; private and personal matters. This express vulnirabilities so that 'trust' exist to develop along the way.

The mainmodel of social penetration is symbol to show how a relationship, live an onion has layers that lead to a deeper point.

This can be seen in conversation at parties, as stranger steadily chat each other up.

This is from Taylor and Altman 1973:

1. Orientation stage. Here, we play safe with small talk and simple, harmless clichés like ‘Life’s like that’, following standards of social desirability and norms of appropriateness.
2. Exploratory affective stage. We now start to reveal ourselves, expressing personal attitudes about moderate topics such as government and education. This may not be the whole truth as we are not yet comfortable to lay ourselves bare. We are still feeling our way forward. This is the stage of casual friendship, and many relationships do not go past this stage.
3. Affective stage. Now we start to talk about private and personal matters. We may use personal idioms. Criticism and arguments may arise. There may be intimate touching and kissing at this stage.
4. Stable stage. The relationship now reaches a plateau in which personal things are shared and each can predict the emotional reactions of the other person.
5. Depenetration. When the relationship starts to break down and costs exceed benefits, then there is a withdrawal of disclosure which leads to termination of the relationship.

Penetration

Is Rapid at the start but slows down quickly as the tightly wrappred inner layers and reached.

Social Information Processing Theory

Joseph Walther come up with this theory called Social Information Processing Theory because he believes that relationships grow only to the extent that parties first gain information about each other and use that information to form ' interpersonal impressions of who they are.

It focuses on the first link of the chain- the personal information available through CMC and its effect on the composite mental image of the other that each one creates.

Interpersonal Information-Impression Formation-Relationship Development.

He included that nonverbal cues are filtered out of the interpersonal information that send and received through CMC. Physical context, facial expression, tone of voice, interpersonal distance, body position, appearance, gestures, touch, and smell are all missing.

Walther highlights two features of CMC that provide a rationale for SIP theory.

VERVAL cues

CMC users can create fully formed impression of others based solely on the linguistic content of computer-mediated messeges. For example, your texting with a weird anonymous over the phone,then he/she talked about green jokes, since this anonymous gave taht hint , you'll conclude that this anopnymous is king of hot and torid., based alone on what he/ she talked about.

2. Extended time

This must be no reason to believe that CMC relationships will be weaker or more fragile than those developed with the benefit of nonverbal cues because the exchange of social information in through CMC is much slower than it is face-to-face, so impression are formed at a reduced rate.It would be also refer to the length of time that communicators would need before they can send or received messages.

Getting you better...

It's been a long time since I decided not to have ' textmate or chatmate'. Too tiring and boring.

Waste of time and money.

But, unfortunately I have to search again and again. Promptly, last December 24, 2008, this task given forced me to use my pen and paper again jotting down alots of number - A Scientific guess? 0919..0918.. 0909. Sendeng around 11pm-12mn this text message " Merry Christmas!!!". Unluckily, I failed to received replies from those mobile numbers. Well, they said Patience is a virtue. I just waited 'till December 25.

One message received ' Hi! Merry christmas too. Kilala kita? Pakilala nga...' sent: 12/25 @ 4:34:10pm

I then give a beap to his text. This must be my lucky day. I texted my honest reply by saying ' Hey! this is yankee. And u r? sent: 12/25 @ 4: 36:12

Fast text here! He didn't failed to answer my query ' I'm chase. san m n q ha ang # q? '

Wow! I am too confident that this guy is possible to be my text friend. I make sure that have to be put an extra care on my text replies because I am quite afraid that he might discard or ignore my text. It has been a surprise when tried to call me. 'What am I gonna do? ' .
So to cut the story I answered his call. Just a 2mins. conversation. He just only want to hear my voice.

This gave me a verbal cues. I guess this guy don't believe that really I am a girl or it could be he just only want to test me?.

In Social Information Processing Theory, Complextity are being discussed because there are times that ' disclosure' happens as a mere way of expressing oneself and not necessarily as a way of being close or developing a relationship with someone.

This happened when Chase, shared about his personal life with regards to his family and former girlfriend ' Alam mo yankee, mahirap lang kami kaya cvguro kmi nag break..' sent: 12/26 @ 10:12:05

I wasn't able to give my fast reply, I want to think for a better avdice. I am not a good adviser. ' Hard time' .

Here, it's my not in my expectation that we'll reach this way. I feel timid and pity.

' I am sori chase, 4 late text been bz.. doin hometasks..
Pls. don't think that b'coz ur poor you dnt have ryt to be loved. Life is not that easy to grasp but all you need to do is to be positive and take it as a big challenge in life =) okamz? be happy. ' sent: 12/26 @ 1: 12: 15

I believe his busy too because, Chase by the way is a Registered Nurse from Iloilo. So I need to understand him.

Feedback, really works here! . Self - Fulfilling Prophecy
- tendency for persson's expectation of others to evoke a response from them that confirms what he she anticipated. Believing it's so can make it so.
Senders self-select what they reveal, receivers create an idealized image of their partner, and channel lets users express themselves the way they want, when they want.

After hours, after hours Chase send me a thak you message. ' Salamat yank, and cnxa bz dn eh. Musta? ' sent: 12/27 18:12:09

There, our friendship with the use of CMC is working well. My feedback and his feedback resulted as fine.
On the other hand, eventhough we failled to text back promptly, I learned that ' a delayed response to someone may indicate receptivity and liking in a more intimate relationship; partners are comfortable with one another do not need to reply each other quickly.

Synopsis of Symbolic Interactionism

For George Herbert Mead, " Symbolic Interactionism" is the process of interaction in the formation of meanings for individuals. It means that our actions are based from the meanings that we give other people.

It also focuses on the theories about symbolic activity, both verbal and non-verval are used to show the significance of symbols in the daily interactions of human.

The term "symbolic interaction" refers, of course, to the peculiar and distinctive character of interaction as it takes place between human beings. The peculiarity consists in the fact that human beings interpret or "define" each other's actions instead of merely reacting to each other's actions. Their "response" is not made directly to the actions of one another but instead is based on the meaning which they attach to such actions. Thus, human interaction is mediated by the use of symbols, by interpretation, or by ascertaining the meaning of one another's actions. This mediation is equivalent to inserting a process of interpretation between stimulus and response in the case of human behavior. (Blumer, p. 180).

Symbolic interactionists are often criticized by other sociologists for being overly impressionistic in their research methods and somewhat unsystematic in their theories. These objections, combined with the fairly narrow focus of interactionist research on small-group interactions and other social psychological issues, have relegated the interactionist camp to a minority position among sociologists, although a fairly substantial minority.

Given the example, when we come to interact with others, we oftentimes think of what meanings would they put on the way we act or speak.

Like, during our class discussions, we have discussed the different views some selected authors. Most of them differ on the words used but have the same thought.
