Desperate Housewives... desperate me?

Since Sex and the City is now over, I have switched my attention to Desperate Housewives which is the Sex and the City for housewives/married women/single moms.

But first, let us define two words...

desperate adj. 1 reckless through despair. 2 extremely serious or dangerous.

despair n. complete lack of hope.

If that's what desparate and despair mean, then I am not desparate nor in despair.

I am a person filled with hope. I hope for the best but expect the worst.

I am hoping that the Philippines will be able to stand up amidst the chaos, confusion and corruption. I am hoping that I do not have to leave the country just so I can live comfortably and securely. I am hoping that our department will be able to reach our target by the end of the year. I am hoping that I will be able to do everything that I need to do. I am hoping for a lot of things. I am hoping that 100% of all the things I hope for will come true. If not, I will settle for 99%.

Back to Desperate Housewives, I am not totally hooked in this show. I can rarely relate. I am neither married nor a single mother. But I have to say that if I were to be a housewife, a desperate one, I might just be Gabriella.

Thus, I had to take one of those quizzes to confirm my belief. Below is the result:

You're Gabrielle

Like Gabrielle, you have a bit of a princess in you. You expect to have beautiful things, to be admired, to enjoy life - and magically, those things do happen. Your sense of entitlement attracts people who want to pamper and pet you. Best of all, your healthy sense of ego doesn't get in the way of close friendships for you. Leave the cat-fighting to other women (hello, Edie). The women in your life are friends, not rivals.

Just take care that your self-esteeming practices don't develop into self-centredness. Other people have feelings, dreams and hopes - surprise - they are not just there to fulfil your wishes. And by keeping secrets from your friends and loved ones, you might eventually end up shutting them out of what's really going on inside you. Try to maintain your regal attitude without being a royal pain in the ass.

Hhmm.... what do you think?

Who is Maan?

Very talkative, very frank to the point of being tactless. Major hyper active and super kulit. Tampuhin, selosa and madalas may topak. Psychotic but bearable most of the time. Pakialamera. Addicted to those excel quizzes and surveys forwarded through e-mail. Have learned how to say no to FREE FOOD and resist the temptation of buffets. Listens to The Morning Rush with Chico and Delamar and is a major fan of Sex and the City. Fiercely loyal to friends (especially the under dogs). Can't dance, can't sing, can't act but very OA (Outstanding Actress). Doesn't smoke, drink nor do drugs but definitely a great girl to hang out with (sagot ko na ang kwento). Cynical on the outside but a hopeless romantic deep inside. Tries not cry over a guy but will shed buckets of tears while watching a movie. Escapes from the real world by reading books, watching movies,and tv shows. Dreams of travelling the world someday and joining The Amazing Race with a friend who knows how to swim, ride a bike and drive a car.
