On Sexual Harassment...


Dear _____:

I am filing a formal sexual harassment complaint against _____.

For a very considerable period of time now, I have fallen prey to his unceasing indecent and sexually violating remarks that I have been miserably tolerating in the vague hopes that he will stop doing not only a very unprofessional characteristic but also a very demeaning and sexually harassing behavior. He has been incessantly trying to acquire my mobile phone number that I constantly refuse him and made very clear of my having no intention of giving him now, or even in the future. In addition to this, he keeps on asking me out on a date in a very irritating and unpleasant manner. But what really enrages me is the way he blurts out his lewd, shrewd, and ill-bred oral remarks, which are very sexually harassing in nature. I have already reached the limits of my patience and decided to escalate this very serious matter to a formal complaint. It is very hard to be efficient, and or lest even maintain a good and professional working relationship with this kind of person.

I hope you take action in this very urgent matter.

Thank you, and I’ll be expecting to hear from you soon.

Sincerely,
Moi
This was my letter indeed. 

NOBODY has the right to treat any woman unrightfully.

To all the women, if you feel that you are violated in anyway, SPEAK UP!

Fight for your rights!

Sweetest

I'm blogging about my valentine's date though it's been two weeks since I met up with my very dear friend, Alvin. It wasn't really a date and let me just make this clear: our relationship is very platonic and there's no way in the world we'll ever be romantically linked to each other. But here's the sweet part, it's the best valentine's day I have ever had so far in the history of mankind.

Alvin is working in china with Bert. So before Alvin went home that week, Bert emailed me saying that Alvin will be arriving just in time for the valentine's day and so just in case I don't have a date, he'll be my back up. They're both very good friends of mine and it's always a joy seeing them because Alvin really cracks me up. And Bert, well, he always surprises me with his weird antics. That week, Bert will be in Malaysia so he can't come home.

So Alvin and I met up. He gave me his pasalubongs. Yes, pasalubongs! He gave me Gucci rush perfume and a big big box of Cadbury's. Yun palang, ok na.

We were suppose to eat at Bellini's but since it was Valentine's day and we have no reservations, the place was crowded; and so we ended up at Italianni's. Italian pa rin! My favorite food. Then we had coffee at Figaro, my choice pa rin. But I guess, the most important thing that night was our conversation. Our best conversation ever!

I was really feeling so special that night.

I realized that with or without a boyfriend, I'm fine. I feel blessed having such wonderful friend who loves me genuinely, who gives so much without asking for anything in return, and who will always stay in my life forever no matter what. And that's the sweetest!

"Lips Of An Angel"

Bakit kaya I can relate to this song? Sobra! Hmmm...

Honey why you calling me so late?
It's kinda hard to talk right now.
Honey why are you crying? Is everything okay?
I gotta whisper 'cause I can't be too loud

Well, my girl's in the next room
Sometimes I wish she was you
I guess we never really moved on
It's really good to hear your voice say my name
It sounds so sweet

Coming from the lips of an angel
Hearing those words it makes me weak

And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel

It's funny that you're calling me tonight
And, yes, I've dreamt of you too
And does he know you're talking to me
Will it start a fight
No I don't think she has a clue

Well my girl's in the next room
Sometimes I wish she was you
I guess we never really moved on
It's really good to hear your voice say my name
It sounds so sweet

Coming from the lips of an angel
Hearing those words it makes me weak

And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel

It's really good to hear your voice say my name
It sounds so sweet
Coming from the lips of an angel
Hearing those words it makes me weak

And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel

And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel

Honey why you calling me so late?
