Maybe it's a mix of it almost being that time of the month, mixed with a suddenly high occurrence of creepiness in my life, & seriously not having enough hours in the day for work, school, applications, and extracurriculars....i'm just getting a little fed up and annoyed, I think I'm gonna have to start setting aside "special time" so I can highlight these creeps.
I'm a true romantic, in love with love, but am starting to think that that stuff really is only in the movies =( b/c there is nothing romantic about these strangers...
Examples:
1) FB Request 5.13.09
"Hey how are you? I live in NYC I admire the Filipino culture a lot are you from the Philippines?"
2) Email Subject: Filipino 5.9.09
Whether they are trying to get at you or not, I do not like when people use your race, ethnicity, cultural background as a way in. Just cause you know how to say a couple of words in my language, like lumpia or pancit, or guessed that I was Filipino on the first try does not mean you know a person or that you can relate at all to that person.
3) FB message 9.14.09
"Life has countless twist & turns & due to all those change of direction, I found myself staring at your profile. No, it was not the destination I was aiming for, however life isn't always about just getting to where you wish to go. The journey along the way can be quite interesting & at times, totally unexpected. The ability to adapt is important so instead of just going along with my merry way, I decided to send you this message with the hope that we could become acquaintances (yeah right). There are no expectations, really...just a positive thought that something good can come of this potential encounter between strangers. Well, I won't say much more than this & will leave the decision to you as to whether you wish to continue with this gesture or not. Thanks for your time & have yourself a wonderful day tomorrow, dear"
2) Email Subject: Filipino 5.9.09
"Hi Melissa,
One of my goals this year was to make more Asian friends. Right now, I only know 2 people, a Taiwanese and a Chinese.
I want to know more about Asian cultures from different parts of the world so when I do travel to those place, I would not be clueless!
So, it would be nice if you could share with me your culture and I will share mine over coffee sometime."

i don't know you, don't know how you got my email so if you really want to know about the Filipino culture email me your questions, otherwise....NO.

whoa buddy, that's way to deep for just looking, i mean, staring at my picture. Wow staring, should I be flattered. Hell No! Staring is never a flattering word. That is a red flag for Stalker status.
oh and p.s. when I looked at this creep's friends list...they were all asian girls... Big Surprise!
So what now? Am I supposed to change my Profile Pic??
