EVERYBODY’S GOT SOMETHING TO HIDE EXCEPT FOR ME AND MY MONKEY – from April 2, 2007

i find it strange that i kinda believe zodiac signs. for some reason, at some points in my life, i find myself saying, “interestingly true”…i mean, read the characteristics of a gemini and it almost describes me to the letter (almost, ok?).

The Gemini personality is bright, witty and adaptable. Very little ever troubles Gemini, or stop one talking for long – Gemini can argue their way out of any situation. Having a lively curiosity, Gemini also excels at gathering information, processing it, and expressing it in an accessible way to the waiting world. This personality can do almost everything – so long as it does not cause boredom, anathema to Gemini. With so many talents and an ability to make something out of nothing, Gemini’s difficulty lies in deciding where, and how to concentrate. Gemini are almost always doing at least two things at once. The self-expressive Gemini personality simply has to communicate, knows everything, from strong opinions and is always right – except that Gemini can change their minds so quickly that they may end up contradicting themselves. Consequently, Gemini can appear indecisive or hypocritical.

what do you think?

with regards to relationships, at times when it said i should beware of leos and librans, i should have followed…when it said an aquarius will be this or an aries will do that, it unfolds as such.

but chinese horoscope, i wasn’t a big fan. though looking at the description of a monkey makes me say, “ei, that’s me” at times.

Monkeys can run circles around other people with ease. They are curious and clever people who catch on quickly to most anything. Monkey people generally can accomplish any given task. They appreciate difficult or challenging work as it stimulates them and makes them think.

Persuasive and passionate, this Monkey is a warm person. He is successful due to his innate determination and ambitious nature. He works hard to climb the ladder of success and prefers to work alone. They are loyal employees, always prepared and tactful with answers and upper management. In love these Monkeys are just as loyal as well as loving and affectionate.

Monkeys are just as good as spending money as they are at making it. They can’t really save it because it burns a hole in their pockets. Occasionally though, Monkeys should put a little away today for an emergency tomorrow.

Suitable Gifts: Books, pens, mobile phone, a makeover, joke book, crossword puzzles

Hobbies and Pastimes: Playing an instrument, working a puzzle, karaoke, mind teasers

Monkeys Dislike: Being told to be quiet, not being the most popular, people who don’t like their jokes Monkeys are sociable and lovable and make good friends. As they desire attention, they generally have a grand following of friends and acquaintances. No other animal finds communication and talking with others quite as easy as the Monkey does. As friends they will make you laugh when you want to cry. People want their Monkey friends around them because of their wit, sensitivity and effervescence.

Compatible Friends

Best Friends: Dragons and Rats

Mortal Enemy: Tigers

Monkeys, of all the other signs, are the most promiscuous. They are flirtatious and like to seek the attention of others to get what they want. They are easily bored and must be stimulated intellectually as well as physically in order to stay around for extended periods of time. The Monkey can be clever, mischievous and manipulative when pursuing a love interest.

and to sum up, a gemini who is a monkey (zodiac meets chinese)…

GEMINI MONKEY

These people are quick thinkers who can process and problem solve with ease. They have energy and lead an active lifestyle. They need someone to adore them in order to be happy.

tsktsk…

last year, they said that the year of the dog (2006 in particular)would be an awful year for those born in 1956, 68, 80, 92. part of the tips to shoo bad luck were to the avoid visiting the sick, going to hospitals, and attending and funerals.

but how could i avoid them? my grandma was in the brink of death, dr. stephen reyes died, and my mom was hospitalized for pre-stroke symptoms.

the way my year started in terms of business and personal, i couldn’t care less about the horoscope. first half of the year, i was doing ok with money and despite a lotta hardships, i was able to say i’m happy. but then, after my birthday (half of the year), things started to fall apart…business was bad. i got into a terrible break-up. my mom almost had stroke. my dad was deep into gambling. my grandma eventually died…i just try to enjoy myself. getting into a band. going out, doing things i never imagined doing. rediscovering old flames. purchasing a motorcycle. road tripping. getting drunk 5x a week…i really enjoyed my life to a point i was being a bit sinful and a lot bankrupt. so, it was really a bad year for someone born in 1980. what the fuck?!…is the horoscope true then or just coincidence?

then came the year of the pig (2007)…
