Awkward Sunday

I went to take my usual class and "K" was there. She was doing training. I did not want to bother them when they are doing their training. I think I mentioned here that "K" and I were supposed to go out for coffee but when I was trying to follow up with her on FB but no response. She stood me up and basically did not even tell me she did not want to go out with me.

So I ignored her and let her do her own thing and she walked up to hug me and sis. What do you expect I would do when the girl you want to go with stood you up? Pretend that nothing happened and everything is normal? Of course you would be civil but not too friendly and she sensed it and ended up going to the water to stare at the ocean. I bet she was thinking of how she hurt my feelings and broke my trust.

The first thing she should do is say "Look, I am sorry I stood you up and not commit to going out with you. But I want to make it up by treating you to coffee and this time I will be there and show up." No apology whatsoever. Anyway she broke my trust and she will have to deal with that.

I did not do anything wrong. I did my part to ask her out and thought she was genuine since she is from another state. Boy I was wrong about her and so irresponsible even though her work she has to be responsible.

Toronto Women (An Article)

Leslieville Lady- This type of woman would be good since she likes guys that do yoga.

Bay and Bloor Broad- Business woman

Kensington Girl- She seems cool but hopefully not someone that smokes you know what.

I was reading the type of women I can meet over there since I would have better luck finding something serious in terms of a relationship.

Last Night's Dream

One of the women I know from my past showed up in a dream. Paulette showed up and I was like "whoa". I guess in the dream, we are both roomates. She looks exactly like the way she looks now. It's weird in dreams people talk the same as they do in real life.

Maybe she was thinking of me. Not sure but this dream looked so real.

Aries Women

I always wanted to date more Aries women. I think the more I focus on my business and success, the more they will show up. I feel lucky that I am learning to market my stuff and getting people to look.

The Alchemist- Rika's Turn

The three arrive back to Tibet.

Dave: Francis, it looks like Nikola has a new toy.

Francis: This is not good. I have a feeling that bow has Arrielle's true essence.

Dave: How do you know?

Francis: The arrows did not harm Arrielle. We need to somehow retrieve that bow and extract the essence and give Arrielle back her true form. How did Nikola get that essence from Arrielle?

Arrielle: My dream I had was strange. I felt like something was taken away from me from Donovan.

Dave: That's gotta be it!

A figure rides on a horse towards the three.

Francis: Here's Rika. Arrielle, she will show you some more abilities to use.

Mika: Salutations everyone. Francis, is she the one?

Francis: She sure is. Hadiel and Arrielle, I want you to meet Mika. She travels around and guards this land from trouble.

Dave and Arrielle exchange pleasantries with Mika.

Rika: Arrielle, this particular power has something to do with levitation. It's really useful in times of need.

Arrielle: Rika, are there any limitations to it?

Rika: There is no limits to where you can apply this. The stronger the concentration, the farther you can do this. You see that river with buffaloes crossing?

Arrielle: Yes.

Rika: Watch the little one and I will help it cross without crossing the river.

Rika closes her eyes and the little buffalo levitated to the other side.

Arrielle: That's amazing!

The Alchemist- Matthias Loses

Rufus and Donovan are back at the office.

Rufus: Did you see the arrows did not hurt the chosen one?

Donovan: It's strange that even with the power of Arch Angel, it still knows it's owner.
 As long as Ms. Casinetti is not near the bow, we will use it's power for our purposes. We got a score to settle with Matthias.

Donovan and Rufus visit Matthias's realm.

Matthias: Why are you here Nikola?

Donovan: I want you to feel the power of Arch Maiden in my hand.

Matthias summons his guardians as Rufus deals with them. Matthias gets hit with Nikola's arrows. Matthias is reduced to a white orb and Nikola uses the bow to draw a little bit of Matthias's power.
Nikola uses a part of Matthias essence to create a weapon for Rufus.

Nikola: Rufus, pick a weapon of choice at the pawn shop and I will use Matthias's essence to create your own powerful weapon.

Rufus: Thanks Nikola. I will do that.

Rufus heads out to the pawn shop.

Salesman: Welcome to my store. Are you looking for anything in particular?

Rufus: I am looking for a used recurve bow

Salesman: I am sorry I don't have anymore. You going hunting?

Rufus: Yes. Wild boars.

Salesman: How about a crossbow?

Rufus: Can I see it?


Salesman shows Rufus his prized crossbow. Rufus pays for the purchase and leaves the store. Nikola performs his ritual with Matthias's essence and Rufus is given his own toy to play with.

The one quality that changes everything

In relationships, I personally think that women find irresistible in a man is how he treats family and how he cares for them. Yes it's true that looks, money and status is also good. The bottom line is how you treat and care for your parents and siblings determine the quality of a future wife and GF.

Let's face it,  people would not want someone who would treats family members in a bad way. People may not like in-laws but that is part of the deal when you are with someone. Uncle Bob might not like you, but you cannot change the fact that his favorite niece married you.

Mystery Yogini At Class

About a week or two, a mysterious blonde female came to class. She reminded me of someone I used to know named Lindsey. She came to class and when I was doing a yoga pose, she would smile and look. But when I look at her, she looks away and pretends I am not there. She had that look that she knows me. The first day she came, after class she ran off before I was going to say hi to her.

Today, she came to class and I walked up to her and finally said hi and walked away. I thought I saw her with her brother or male friend a couple of days ago and her friend made a comment towards me. Boyfriends don't make comments towards me when their girlfriend is asking about me. Those things just don't happen.

I remember when Jessi brought her brother to take class and I am sure she wanted her brother's opinion about me.

Anyway this "Lindsey" lookalike looked down and smiled when I said hi to her. She did not expect it at all. The most important thing is I walked up to her and acknowledged her presence.

I am sure she will walk up to introduce herself in the future.

The Alchemist- 3 VS Rufus

Francis takes Dave and Arrielle to a cave to practice.

Francis: Now Arrielle see that dark cave. I am going to show you how to use your palms to create a  blinding light so you can see in the dark. Now Hadiel don't forget to cover your eyes and yours too Arrielle.

Francis takes his palms outstretched and focuses and blinding light starts to spark a few feet from his hands.

Francis; Arrielle, you try it. Focus on creating light as your intention and let the energy flow through you.

Arrielle gives it a try and it works like a charm.

Francis: Good job Arrielle.

Hadiel gets a sense something is wrong in the city.

Dave: Arrielle, we got to get back to the city. I sense Rufus creating trouble. We got to stop him!

Arrielle: Ok Dave. Are you sure you are okay to fight?

Dave: I am sure I will be fine.

Francis: Hadiel, I want to come and assist you both. I got a score to settle with Rufus.

Dave: Ok Francis. Let's go.

The three head to the spot. Rufus creating havoc with the police and destroying cars and causing lots of damage.


Rufus: So Hadiel you and the chosen one come back to challenge me! Hahahaha! What's this? FRANCIS!! You traitor!!!! This is going to be fun!

Francis: So Rufus....we meet again! So Nikola called you to do his dirty work!

Rufus uses an enchanted  steel chain to slow down Rufus as a Cerebus and rides on his back like a horse starts to buckle to throw off Francis. Rufus transforms into his human form with his enchanted bow ready to strike at Francis. Arrielle's hands starts to glow as the arrow from Rufus's bow disappears.

Rufus: How can this be????

Rufus's bow disappears. Nikola appears and his bow comes to him.

Nikola: I am taking this with me Rufus.

Nikola throws fireballs at the three and disappears... Hadiel uses angelic shield to absorb Nikola's fireballs. Rufus transforms into Cerebus and attacks Arrielle as she uses her palms to create the blinding light. Rufus is blinded and disappears out of thin air.

Francis: Thank you Arrielle for saving me.

Arrielle: Your welcome Francis.

Hadiel: We better go guys...it looks like the authorities want to ask us questions...

The three teleport back to Tibet...

For Erika (OC)

This is for Erika... If you are reading this. You have in someway helped me with certain things. I think it is a blessing that I have consulted you. It's not to tell you what to do. It's more of options you may have missed. Every time I see you, I noticed you are working hard in promoting your book and your blogs. People are coming to your circle. Seeing you makes me happy. Keep up the good work. You have me and I am not far away to reach.

I will always remember our time at the San Juan Capistrano Mission. Just sitting on a bench and talking before you head out to work. I feel the luckiest person because you drove from Laguna Niguel just to see me. I am sure that once things change, we both can help each other professionally.

Sometimes we both keep ourselves busy and we miss out on the little things along the way. Appreciating the little things and the validations we both give.

The Alchemist- Rufus's Power

Rufus wearing white linen cloth with bow and arrow in hand. Goes to try out his new toy at a junkyard.

Rufus: It's strange that Nikola wants me try out his new toy. I wonder if he will let me keep it and maybe have my own.

Rufus sees a pile of cars and pulls out his bow and arrow and starts shooting random cars. The cars start to explode at impact and causes fires. The fire department arrives and Rufus decides to teleport to a oil refinery.

With lots of foreign and domestic oil. He starts shooting at it.

Rufus: This is so much fun. Now oil prices will go up because of my bow will weaken supplies and people will have to pay high prices for it.

The news reporters arrive to report the horrible news. Rufus uses the power of invisibility to observe. Nikola turns on the TV and smiles to himself.

Nikola: Oh Rufus, now I will have more clients calling for my help with their legal matters thanks to your intervention.

Nikola calls Rufus on the cell.

Rufus: What is it Nikola? You want me to go to the city and create chaos? Sure!

Rufus goes to the city to have some fun. He shoots his arrows at parked cars. He pauses and transforms into his true form. He chooses Cerebus the two headed hell hound. He size has grown to a size of two school buses

Reporter: We have breaking news to cover. A large canine attacking the city. What's going on here? How do you stop something big?

Rufus finds local coffee houses and destroys them with his powers.

Rufus: This is way too easy for me.

Portola Coffee Lab

I have been going to Portola Coffee Lab for the past couple of days and I have enjoyed their "Flat Brown" which is a 6oz espresso with a ganache of dark chocolate. That is the only drink I would get. It only comes hot. This place gets busy alot.

They expanded to 4 stores. Tustin, Santa Ana, Old Towne Orange and Costa Mesa. It is worth the long lines.

A Visit To Someone

I went to South OC to visit someone in my professional network. Seeing her today made me happy. I rarely visit her to say hello. I felt a 15 min talk with her before she left work made things better. I want to be sure I saw her even though we are not very close. If you are reading this, you made me very happy just spending a few mins with you.

A part of me needed to do some type of closure so I don't have any karma with her. I will still talk to her when necessary. I know when my businesses go through her and I will talk more on a business level. I will admit I have a crush on her and she knows that.

I need this for myself to not burn bridges but to create some type of communication so she can do her work and to do things that make her happy. I did go out with her once and regardless of what happened between both of us in the past, I am truly grateful this Aries female said yes to go out at SJC back then. I don't regret it because a part of me feels worthy to date fire women.

The Alchemist- Weather

Dave excuses himself while Francis and Arrielle train.

Arrielle: Francis, I thought Dave was going to train me and be my guide.

Francis: Dave is your guide, I am here to help with your senses. Awareness for demons is strong and they have entrusted me to train you to sense demons in their disguised forms.

Arrielle: So even without my so called true form, you think I can still be someone that is chosen to stop Donovan?

Francis: Yes. Donovan aka Nikola can be stopped. He wouldn't act nice towards you unless he is scared of you. I am going to help you to create the simple trick.

Arrielle: What is that?

Francis: Rain

Arrielle: Interesting.

Francis: It's easy.

Francis and Arrielle sitting down.

Francis: There are no clouds in sight. Perfect. Think of cotton candy. If you envision cotton candy in the sky, it might appear.

Arrielle realizes after thinking about cotton candy, clouds seem to appear in the distance.

Francis: Now think about a fan set on low blowing on your face or direction.

The clouds seem to move towards their direction.

Francis: Think about wringing out wet clothes with your bare hands...

Light rain starts to fall in the distance.

Francis: Good job.

The Alchemist- Nikola's Enchanted Bow and Arrielle's Training In Tibet

Donovan Stratton smiles as he holds the antique jar and placed his bow next to the jar.

Rufus: So you got the essence of Arch Maiden on that jar?

Donovan: Yes. I will transfer a part of her essence on this bow. I will use this bow for my purpose. This will be so much fun.

Rufus: When you bringing more help?

Donovan: Why are you in a rush? It's not like I want to destroy the whole world with this bow. Besides, if this planet is destroyed, there will be nothing left here than a pile of rubble. It's like throwing rocks at a rock quarry.

Donovan casts some spell and essence of Arch Maiden is trapped in the bow.

Donovan: Rufus, would you test this bow for me? I don't care if you go after some random people. Just play with this.

Rufus: With pleasure....

Arrielle, Dave and Francis talk.

Arrielle: Dave and Francis, something happened last night.

Dave: What?

Arrielle: I saw Donovan and he used a jar to take something from me.

Francis: I don't sense Arch Maiden in you....

Dave: That's not good. What do you think Francis?

Francis: Even without Arrielle's true form, she might be able to use whatever she has inside of her.

Francis hands Arrielle a bar of soap

Arrielle: Francis, what's this?

Francis: Soap. You will need this. Just trust me.

Arrielle: It's not like I don't shower.

Dave: Arrielle, Francis knows what he is doing.

Francis takes Dave and Arrielle in a part of Tibet that has a road with lots of gravel.

Francis: I am sure you remember this place Hadiel.

Dave: I remember Francis so very well. The place where we had our biggest battle.

Francis: Ever since that battle, lots of activity has been noted here. I've been keeping tabs on others who prey on the weary traveler. Arrielle, see those gravel on the road?

Arrielle: Yes.

Francis: You will need to use that bar of soap in battle. Okay I sense we have a visitor coming. It's not an Alchemist but another demon in disguise. Dave, give your arnis sticks to Arrielle. Now Arrielle, Hadiel and I will be here to back you up if things get rough. Remember to use your bar of soap Arrielle when the time comes.

A figure walks into the road.

Kai: Who's there? You three are in my territory. This road is closed and it is time for you to leave.

Kai transforms into a water demon.....the clouds starts to form.....rain starts falling down on the road....

Arrielle: Whoever you are, this road is for travelers. We have a right to pass...

Kai: I sense you are an Alchemist....This is going to be fun......

Kai attacks Arrielle and she starts dodging his attacks.......Arrielle attacks with sticks as demon blocks her moves.

Rain falls harder as Arrielle remembers to use the bar of soap and Kai trips on the soap and falls on his back and gets hit with the sticks.

Francis: That's enough Arrielle. You passed this training....

Kai disappears and rain stops.

Arrielle: What kind of training was that Francis? It was almost like a joke.

Francis: Don't worry...this part was using what you have at hand. Regardless of technique you passed the cunning part of the test.
