<p>A lot of thoughts were swimming in my head and I was tired of thinking.</p>

<p>Her name was familiar since I heard some people from the office go to her to have their fortunes told. They referred to her as a "manghuhula" (fortune teller) who told very accurate findings about them and their future.</p>
<p>But she was not a fortune teller, I'd say she is something more special.</p>

<p>Another thought: <em>Can she help me clear my mind?</em></p>

<p>If you ask people to describe me, one of them will definitely mention pink. Love even nicknamed me "Pinky" on Facebook. I guess pink will always be part of my personality.</p>
<p>But this October, being pink becomes even more special as it signifies one of the ways I can support Breast Cancer Awareness month.</p>

<p>I know this might be quite hard for some male bloggers but hey, maybe even a tinge of pink will do. Take a look at the site's pink list and see some male blog power going pink. <a href="http://usabilityworks.org/" title="Matthew Oliphant&#039;s site" target="_blank">Matthew Oliphant</a>, the brains behind the Pink for October site, has a special page just for men because, believe it or not, breast cancer can happen to men too.</p>
<p><strong>Fight breast cancer!</strong></p>
<p>There are some very informative articles at the <a href="http://www.cancer.org/" title="American Cancer Society" target="_blank">American Cancer Society (ACS) site</a> about breast cancer. One of the articles, <a href="http://www.cancer.org/docroot/CRI/content/CRI_2_4_2X_Do_we_know_what_causes_breast_cancer_5.asp?rnav=cri" title="What causes breast cancer?" target="_blank">'Do we know what causes breast cancer?'</a>  cites the following:</p>
<blockquote><p>Some genes contain instructions for controlling when our cells grow, divide, and die. Certain genes that speed up cell division are called oncogenes. Others that slow down cell division, or cause cells to die at the right time, are called tumor suppressor genes. Cancers can be caused by DNA mutations (changes) that "turn on" oncogenes or "turn off" tumor suppressor genes.</p></blockquote>
<p>I think that's what makes breast cancer so scary: you can never tell when your genes will suddenly go crazy and become cancerous.</p>
<p>The sad fact is being a woman makes you an automatic potential victim.</p>
