i have this facebook friend who keeps on adding me as friend -> which means we repeatedly ceased being facebook friends somehow.
now i don't unfriend people. i just put them in my Restricted List. unless facebook's friending module is glitchy, it's safe to say that the unfriending happens on his end.
i'm not sure whether he himself unfriends me though. i remember seeing a post where someone was saying this guy keeps on adding her while the guy's girl, using the guy's account, keeps on unfriending her. if this is a similar case then i just might decide not to re-accept the guy's friend request anymore.
i am clear on priorities: relationships take precedence over friendships. i am not gonna insist on a friendship if it strains a relationship. some things are not worth risking.
simple joys
at a gasoline station in some province...
brother: 'are you the mayor here?'
me: 'mayor???'
brother: 'you check in, right?'
me: 'oh... swarm!'
hahaha...
right now i hold 31 mayorships in swarm (in foursquare before, you needed only 10 mayorships to become Super Mayor)...
"You become the Mayor of a place by checking in more than anyone else in the last 30 days. Only 1 check-in per day counts and ties go to the reigning Mayor."
i have 14 mayorships for having the most number of check-ins in the venue within the last 30 days. the other 17 i've been holding for more than 30 days not because i frequent the place but simply because no one has dethroned me (i'm the only one checking in, wahaha).
foursquare was launched in march 2009 and spun off swarm in may 2014.
their website reports 50 million users per month and they surpassed 12 billion check-ins last month!
i've been doing foursquare/swarm since september 2010. i so far have only 2,077 check-ins though. should have been much more but a lot of times i either don't have my phone or there's no free wifi and i don't want to use my plan's not unlimited mobile data... :"}
my all-time top 5 categories are:
1 States & Municipalities
2 Shopping Malls
3 Banks
4 Asian Restaurants
5 Dessert Shops
i've unlocked 57 of 100 swarm collectible stickers plus 30 special ones. (i had 33 badges in foursquare before.)
it's interesting how checking in and unlocking badges/stickers give me disproportionate joy. i check in and i get so happy. i unlock a sticker and i turn ecstatic, wahehe.
i targeted a Super Mayor badge in foursquare and i got one.
i targeted an Overshare (10+ check-ins in 12 hours),
Crunked (4+ stops in one night)
and
Bender (4+ nights in a row)
and got them as well.
i've been wanting to unlock a Swarm badge but up to now i still don't have one. you get it when there are 50+ people checked in at a venue.
i don't usually follow the crowd but for this one i would have to make an exception. i would get a sticker for it and i will do a dance of joy... : )

nephew to aunt: 'if we tell them we're your nephews, will we still have to pay?'
aunt: 'yes!'
nephew: 'we'll just tell them to charge it to you...'

i tell my dad i'm going someplace.
dad: 'get some coins...'
me: 'i'm just gonna walk...'
dad: 'ride a jeepney...'
me: 'i don't wanna ride...'
dad: 'how 'bout a tricycle?'
me: 'i'm not gonna ride anything... i'm just gonna walk... it's so near!'
dad: 'just bring some coins in case you need to pay anything...'
me: 'there's nothing to pay... unless i pay myself for walking...'
in which case i won't settle for coins... ; p

in other words
i've been wanting to try max's crispy pata rice bowl since i first saw a poster over a month ago. today i finally did.
when my sister arrived from the office, i happily told her i've tried the dish.
sister: 'was it good?'
me: 'yes... i loved the banana! it had three small slices of banana...'
sister: 'how 'bout the crispy pata?'
me: 'it was good. tender, not crunchy. it was the banana that i really liked though [i love bananas]... perfectly fried... perfectly ripe... i'll go back to see whether it's consistently like that...'
sister: 'mom and dad were supposed to eat that today but they decided to go to french baker instead...'
me: 'how did you know?'
sister: 'mom texted me... she was asking whether <brother> and i would like to join them... i wasn't keen on crispy pata so i said no...'
me: 'gah! you're so dense! that means she wants you to pick them up!'
sister: 'oh! sorry... i didn't think of that... <brother> didn't want to eat, too, so we just went straight home...'
me: 'ugh! you two were dense! next time she texts you, just go. that's her way of saying pick them up...'
