When I got my own DVD copy of Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Season 1, one scene stuck on my head.

Here is the dialogue.

In the tradition of dekya and maigaray

Horoscope for: Friday, May 26, 2006

Icheb,
Your eagerness to tell secrets today can backfire on you unless you think about the consequences of your disclosures. You may feel that it’s better to just get it all out in the open, but some things are better left unsaid. Telling the truth is admirable, but not if it needlessly hurts someone.

Okay then. My lips will be sealed for today. I’m wondering, what will make me tell secrets when I am always silent anyway? (I think it’s the rocket fuel as mixed by maigaray but I’m nowhere near Metro Manila today anyway). Oh, well.

Horoscope for: Saturday, May 27, 2006

Icheb,
Although you might believe that you can talk your way through any problem now, you could easily overestimate your capabilities. If you try to do everything, you’ll waste precious energy and won’t succeed. Instead of taking on more activities, limit your choices and do one or two things really well.

I know, I am the one to blame on overwhelming myself with activities thinking that I can do this and that. It is time to slow down and take things one at a time. And what is the good thing to not get lost of track, yup, create a list and put a reasonable time to when the task would be finished. I should not forget to put some rest time on that list too.

Horoscope for: Tuesday, May 30, 2006

Icheb,
You might not be able to say what you’re feeling now for fear of rejection. Also, you are more sensitive to what others are thinking and you really don’t want to put anyone you like in the awkward position of saying no. Even unspoken, your emotions can color your day, so find a way to share your vulnerability without putting responsibility on the other person.

For those who know me will agree that this horoscope is a bit late… months late actually.

A lesson learned…
