The Time Traveler's Sleeping Habits

(not a sequel to The Time Traveler's Wife)

Once upon a time, there was a young boy that loved to procrastinate. Whenever something became a routine for him, he procrastinated. It was so bad that he even procrastinates on eating. "Food tastes the yummiest when you're starving, though! D:" he would refute.

Being a fierce procrastinator, our hero always faced the problem of not having enough time. "Sigh. Why don't I ever have enough time to do what I want? T_T" he would bemoan.

One day night, while he was about to sleep, he saw a shooting star outside his window. Because he grew up watching Disney (tm) movies, he frantically began to chant his wish; "I wanna be able to time travel! Time travel time travel time travel! Then I'll have all the time I'll ever need! *o*o*o*o*o*o*"

aand he fell asleep. By the way, he needs to wake up early tomorrow morning because he has to go to work :( Like, really early, in 4 hours time, actually.

<<fast forward 4 hours later, insert owl sound here *hoot hoot*>>

The sun BLASTED into our hero's eyes >_< "WHAT the hell I can't even sleep properly =A=" he complained. He shut the curtains and looked at the clock.

"*grumble* 6:58...? I can afford to sleep for 2 more minutes.. ~w~" and so he blinked.

(Editor's note: Now for those of you that don't know, when people blink, their eyes close for about one fifth of a second and reopen almost instantly)

When he opened his eyes and adjusted them to look at the clock again, it was 8:34!! "SH*T!" He exclaimed, "!@#$#%#$!" (sorry no subtitles) and he rushed to work.

While he was on the train on the way to work, he was exhausted and sweating due to all the rushing and running around. "Bruwh *wipes sweat* I only blinked.. why did time pass by so fast? Did I sleep?" he sighed to catch his breath, "but.. I'm still so exhausted.."

And the camera zoomed to his face, and to his left eye, and realization materialized within that brown iris of his!

"I TIME TRAVELED!(?)!!"

...he exclaimed. In the train. Everyone was looking at him. Morning train, packed and all. Awkward. "Never mind v_v" he told himself, closing his eyes and pretending to sleep to avoid the judgmental stares...

All of the sudden, he heard the monotonous train woman saying Next. Station :) <insert last station's name here> Station ^o^

"WHAT?! HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME?!"

y-you're my character~ you time traveled, man! ..Isn't that what you w-wished for? ^o^; Don't get m-ma-- eh wait why am I having this conversation with my blog =A=

"G*ddamnit, I time traveled again +_+ This is getting out of control," our hero grumbled non-stop, heading back the way he came from. This time he tried his best not to accidentally time travel, so he tried his best not to blink.

"O_O okay.. so I can time travel.. that's pretty cool. Apparently I can only travel to the future this way.. but I guess it can be useful," he added with a smirk. It looked a little strange, smirking with wide open eyes. 

"Gotta learn how to control it though," and disregarding any and all copyright laws, "with great power, comes great resp-"

Next. Station :) <insert workplace station's name here> Station ^o^

He was relieved that he was finally going to reach his destination. Although a full three hours late. "Better late than never, right? Phew v_v" he sighed a sigh of relief.

"Wait O_O" his eyes swung open.

Next.

"Oh,"

Station :)

"shit."

<insert home station's name here> Stat-

"AAAAA *screams and camera pans out to the train, out to the city, out to the country, out to the world, out to the galaxy~ XD* AAAAAAAAAUGH!! D:"

-ion.. o_o;;

...

...

...

And so ends the story of how our hero discovered his wonderful suberpower of time traveling~ to the future. Only. Use it wisely k ^_~

..oh. What about his job? He took M.C. that day ^o^;

Thoughts on premarital sex

(Or sex in general.. with a little section on virginity)

Being from an Asian community, sex is and has always been somewhat of a taboo issue around me. So its pretty easy to assume that premarital sex is regarded as something extremely wrong to do for the community I am in.

However, I am totally indifferent about the issue. I actually wanted to say that I am totally supportive of premarital sex, but I don't want to sound like I'm recommending it to every single couple out there.. its more like I don't think its a wrong thing to do, and it is especially, definitely not something sinful and humiliating.

One of the main things people have against premarital sex is due to all the risks and accidents relating to it. Ask anyone against premarital sex why and they'll point you to all the rising instances of baby dumping and sexually transmitted diseases. The thing is, all these negative things occur not because premarital sex is negative but because the people doing it are not well prepared, uninformed, or just reckless and irresponsible to begin with. Don't blame the sin, blame the sinner.

Speaking of sin, there is a lot of religious stigma against premarital sex. The main argument is that premarital sex is basically giving into the temptations of the flesh, suggesting couples to wait until marriage before going that far. Sex for 'recreational' purposes (for lack of a better term.. I don't like using casual sex because of all the baggage associated with it. Married couples have sex for recreational purposes too) is considered as sinful, as sex has the only purpose as the means to conceive a child and continue the bloodline~

I think this is a load of bullshit. The desire to have sex is one of the most natural things to feel for humans - it's hardwired into our brains, into our very being. Its an evolutionary necessity. Only the human mind, in all it's creativity, has come up with the idea of suppressing these natural instincts. Why? For moral reasons? In order to ensure a functional and orderly society? No. It is to claim ownership.

One might argue that patience is a virtue, and going fucking around isn't a civil thing to do. That's because these rules that have been placed in human societies have become universal rules, common sense, moral values, logic. I'm not saying that they are wrong, as I have often pointed out in my blogposts, as long as the mass majority of humans agree on a certain truth, it becomes the truth. At least until someone disputes it and persuades the mass majority. Everyone used to think the world was flat, until someone proved otherwise.

What I'm saying  is that these rules, these facts and absolute truths are not set in stone. They are created by humans for the betterment of human society, long long ago, and though they are effective working models of an orderly society, I think that most of these ideals are outdated. I'm not saying we should all throw caution to the wind and go sleeping around with whomever we wish.

I'm saying that nobody should worry about what other people think or be pressured by the rules of their societies and just do whatever they want, as long as both parties are fine with it and whatever they do does not effect other people.

Another thing I'd like to add is my thoughts on the concept of virginity. Most of you would be able to predict by now that my stance on the concept of virginity is that it is a "load of bullshit" XD Yes, exactly like what I mentioned earlier, virginity is also a concept created by humans long long ago. Let me tell you my warped theory on the conception of 'virginity'.

Long long ago, when human society was still very very male dominant, women were treated as possessions. The concept of virginity was introduced by men as a standard to measure their potential wives. The criterion for a virgin was that she must be young, fresh, and 'untouched' by any man. Sounds a lot like the criteria for picking fresh fruits in a marketplace. All men wanted virgins, and those who weren't virgins are cast aside as unwanted women with no future. This was possible because the men had all the power in most societies, so in order to survive, the women were forced to adapt to the standards set by men because a lone woman could not survive (comfortably) in such societies.

And so, this concept of virginity quickly catapulted in importance because it was a reliable and applicable standard throughout almost entire human civilizations. Mothers groomed daughters in order to meet this standards so that they would live good lives. Mothers. Women enforcing men's rules on their fellow women while men sit back and enjoy fruits of their labor. It sounds almost ridiculous when I put it that way, but that is what has been happening for centuries and has only begun to change during these recent centuries. A lot of feminists demonize men, but what they do not realize is that it is not just the patriarchal men, but the patriarchal way of thinking that is the enemy, and that includes women who think that way as well.

The concept of virginity also ensured the 'ownership' of a woman, as another man would be less likely to find another man's wife to be appealing because she isn't a virgin anymore. Of course this didn't really work, but its important to point out this idea of  'ownership' as another reason that solidifies this theory :P

Long story short, virginity is an extremely sexist concept to me which is horribly outdated. I cringe every time I hear people putting even a shred of consideration on virginity or preserving their 'sexual purity' v_v But hey, this is just my warped opinion. Don't feel pressured to change the way you think :P I'm not out to shake the foundations of human society, no matter how ridiculous and outdated it might seem to me. I'm just not going to sit still and adhere by it. Everyone has the freedom to chose whatever it is they want to do, so like Nike says, Just Do It~ tm ^o^b

The dragons of my world

Like most fantasy writers, I was, and, to a certain extent, still am, enamored by dragons. I also think that there are one too many commas in the last sentence. Anyways.

Dragons are such amazing creatures with a rich collection of mythology and history associated with them. There is such a variety of different types of dragons from so many different cultures that its almost impossible to believe that they aren't real (search Wikipedia, my recent adventure wasted 3 hours of my life and made me save like forty Wikipedia pages which I guarantee I won't read anytime soon..)

Of course, with such a huge variety of different archetypes of dragons, there are bound to be some that I like and I dislike, and that's what I wanna talk about today ^o^

The Hopeless Romantic

The hopeless romantic is a young boy that grew up being enamored by love songs and ultra-sweet romantic scenes from movies and other sources of stories like comics, novels, etc. In other words, hopeless romantics grew up with the ambition of being an honorable boyfriend to a beautiful/sweet/cute girlfriend and while their friends focused on being number one in class, the best on the football team, or Pokemon Masters, they tried to mould themselves into the perfect boyfriend.

A few burnt pots and pans, the discovery of microwaveable foods and the washing machine, and an extreme makeover later, and you have an above-average-looking guy that is able to socialize with girls without the massive stuttering, blushing, or tendency to say unnecessarily inappropriate things that their other peers might suffer.

In other words, hopeless romantics are just average sociable guys that aren't female-repellent jerks.

The problem that plagues hopeless romantics and often gets them misunderstood is that they view most girls that they are (even mildly) attracted to as a potential girlfriend. While this might make them sound like jerks who are only out to get into your skirt and are not worth being friends with, lets not be judgmental.

To understand the workings of a hopeless romantic's mind is to first understand his motivations. And no, its not to get into your pants >:| Hopeless romantics are so obsessed with the desire to have a sweet and heartwarming relationship (as advertised on TV) that I can tell you that most of their focus towards the girls they are attracted to is to get together with them ..and ends there. The hurdle of getting into a relationship with a girl so difficult (provided he isn't blessed with astonishingly good looks) that what happens later is rarely considered - no reason to get his hopes up, right?

There is a very popular joke of a young boy that tries his best to impress the girls that he likes but fails all the time, until one day, he finally meets a girl that can accept him and becomes his girlfriend. His response to this was "Wow. SWEET *O* ....now what? :D"

And that, is the sad part of most relationships regarding young hopeless romantics. They don't know what to do :( and as many a hopeless romantic would discover, reality almost never turns out like what is shown on TV or written in books. Most become disappointed when their dreams become crushed after encountering their first major argument in their relationship, while a small, dangerous few try to replicate fairytale romances and end up scaring their girlfriends because they either move too fast (everything in movies are accelerated twentyfold to keep the story from being too stagnant like a documentary) are too dramatic, or have too high expectations.

In time, (and with perhaps many a heartbreak) most hopeless romantics will grow out of the phase of chasing a fairytale romance, which is often not very practical in today's cruel world. Some will continue pursuing romance, though in a more mature and sophisticated way, and by sheer force of probability, will end up happily with a girl (or guy) ^o^ Some, will become bitter and distance themselves from anything lovey-dovey :( that is, until they find someone that manages to 'heal their wounds' and revitalize them *o*

But a select few hopeless romantics will stay the way they are and (again, by sheer force of probability) might actually meet a girl (or guy) that's also a hopeless romantic (yes, for god's sake, this archetype, like all other archetypes, applies to all genders v_v) - and the stuff that can only be see in movies will magically appear in real life *o* (whether it turns into a romance, drama, tragedy or romantic comedy, I leave it to you.. and them ;D)
