(i should edit this, i sound like a sap lol)


Ten Reasons Why You Might Not Want To Date Me.
(yes this is purely honest yet all for amusement. ENJOY)

10. Yes! I'm from Staten Island. I do not make negative remarks about my town. I do not juice but since I work in a gym, I do keep myself in shape. I am Filipino so my tan is year round! I do not drive a fancy car that my folks gave me. I pay for mostly everything I use. It is an ideally small town so there is a chance I know alot of people but i do not make it known. and finally, I do know how to dance not fist pump nor dry hump your butt!

9. I love trying new things, food, learning different cultures, etc. I believe being able to experience a variety of certain things can help someone be a little bit more open-minded, so you better like sushi or least have tried it or we're going to have problems!

8. I am not your typical club-goer, nightlife connoisseur or every single bar minion. Yet I do go out and socialize but I don't know where the hotspots are all the time. I don't know when a certain club opens or closes or who spins or which hot chick is a waitress, a shot girl or a bartender at that specific night!

7. I am a passive person. Obviously many years in the martial arts along with the upbringing I have from my family help mold me this way. So if and when something comes up and we don't see eye to eye, don't expect to get a bruise or be verbally harassed right away. Don't expect me to be standing outside your house or stalking you out from my car across the street. It's not going to happen. Do expect a phone call of an attempt to resolve the situation.

6. I come from a Catholic family. Anyone who takes at least 5 minutes of my time will be thought of somewhere down the road. So to simplify, if you tell me you're sick and after a few days or so I will ask how you are. I will care and wonder if you are getting better and not be sarcastic. I will offer to be a part of making you better, whether it's to come by or talk on the phone or whatever it may be, I will make the effort to be of help in some capacity.

5. I do believe in chivalry and romance. Expect sweet gestures, compliments, and everything else in the book and maybe more because I wrote one of my own lol. And sadly it isn't just a one time deal or an introductory offer or a pitch. It will be constant if not daily. Example: kissing, hugging, cuddling, holding hands, those priceless moments etc. lol

4. Family is numero uno en mi vida. I spend a lot of time with them and you will probably be a part of that if you are that fortunate. I have great relationships with my parents so expect some kind of approval from them if you even make it that far. My sisters are my heroes they are the reason I actually have an idea of how to be a good boyfriend. And my little brother is my spark plug, he says the right insults to keep me going. and my dogs my pekingnese n shitzu, fudge n koko...they make me mushy even more lol

3. I am a firm believer of me time, you time, and us time. We do not have to spend every minute together yet we should make the effort to have times together. I want to do my thing, I would like you to do your thing and we'll meet later down the road and talk about it. You'd get sick of me!

2. I am a very passionate person and one constant thing has been my kickboxing class. Those who know me well know that I eat, live, sleep and breathe johnmagz kickboxing. So be my cheerleader and I'll shake your pom poms!(if you've taken my class, hope you liked it and yes there is a gentler side of your kickboxing teacher lol)

1. I enjoy life to the highest level. It's too short to worry or fight over little things. No time or room for down time. If YOU or I or WE have a bad day, we will get up from it, dust eachother off and be ready to say, "SUN! I'm sorry but today, I'm gonna shine brighter. ps. and again tomorrow and and after!" Call it an ego but so will you. -johnmagz

also if you've made it this far, must mean you were somewhat Intrigued, Interested, or just Into reading what else i wrote so here's something i read somewhere that I love to share w/ others...cause don't forget, sharing is caring....

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24
hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the
coffee...

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items
in front of him.
When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a
very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with
golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full.
They
agreed that it was.


The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into
the jar. He shook the jar lightly.
The pebbles rolled into the open
areas between the golf balls.
He then asked the students again if
the jar was full. They agreed it was.


The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the
jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else.
He asked once
more if the jar was full.
The students responded with a unanimous
"yes.
"

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the
table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively
filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.




"Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, " I want you
to recognize that this jar represents your life.


The golf balls are the important things-your God, family, your
children, your health, your friends, and your favorite
passions-things that if everything else was lost and only they
remained, your life would still be full.


The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your
house, and your car.




The sand is everything else-the small stuff.

"If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued, "there is
no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life.


If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will
never have room for the things that are important to you.

Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.

Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups.
Take
your partner out to dinner. Play another 18.
There will always be
time to clean the house and fix the disposal.
"

Take care of the golf balls first, the things that really matter.

Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.
"

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee
represented. The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked.
It! just
goes to show you that no matter what, you always have time for coffee w/ a friend...

my first date? hmm...first impressions mean alot but to tell you the truth ive come up w/ the 2nd impressions after thought. it's how things are after the first impression. did what the other person say the first time reflect on the 2nd time? don't put up a front. be yourself. have good time and enjoy. i always thought that people come into your life for a reason. to make an impact or least make you think about something. do that for me. i can make myself full from a meal all on my own.

but as for a first date? let me write what i wouldnt want in a first date.
-do not include another male in picture in anyway...in person..over the phone etc
-do not vent
-do not say you are not hungry, esp if we go for dinner
-do not get sloppy drunk
etc. and of course vice versa...let's enjoy the company whatever the result maybe

it's all about connection, if we click, if there's chemistry...3c's and maybe we'll get an a lmao...corny i know but shut up you know it made you laugh...

john...happy holidays everyone
