ON BEING LAZY AND PLAIN STUPID

Meeting deadlines from time to time is incredibly tedious on my part. I'm not used to being responsible. I'm used to staying up till midnight watching David Letterman and cram everything I'm supposed to accomplish.

Things dramatically changed in my daily routines since I entered AP. It's normal to go home late at night and rush every articles we are required to write. HAY. It's my dream anyway (like what I always say). It's a huge honor to be part of AP and I totally worked hard for it but the transitions that's happening in my routines are practically in need of a major makeover. I need to resettle and prioritize different things at the same time without jeopardizing other responsibilities.

After the grueling overnight orientation and team building activities we had last Saturday, I'm still not used to the surroundings of the AP office. My nerve cells seem to lose their sanity as the thought of being one of the best and coolest student journalists ever is right under my nose. The oldies are incredibly easy to be with. What more can I ask for anyway?

LOTS.

Apparently, the News Editor position was unexpected. I consider anything that involves news a real pain in the ass. I wanted to oppose on the idea but my tounge slipped to my throat as I let destiny submit to its will. MY GOSHIEST GOSH. I just wish I can do this and I never wanna fail their expectations. Demn it. I think I should ask for St. Jude's help by now.

><><><><><><><><><><><><

That's it for now, I should go home before another deluge hits my powerless shoes.

XIAO!

New shoes, new challenges. I was strangled with relief when AP texted me the horribly good news last midnight. I'm part of AP (Ang Pamantasan) and I dunno if I should be ecstatic or not. HAHA. I know I should be, I'm trying to get used to it. Now I have more stuffs to carry on my back and weird enough to believe I think that the more responsibility I have means losing the attitude of being a lazy ass. Hopefully that won't happen, I don't really want to become a workaholic ass instead yah know.

TEARY EYED MORNING

On my way to my beloved Pamantasan, I saw a dog barking the hell out of her lungs. I pity the dog for being strangled alone in the sidewalk, I just can't bare the sight of her forlorn.

DOGS ARE PETS NOT FOOD YOU FREAKS!

I'd rather eat a horse meat, *I did once, just a bite* and it tastes way better. *EEIWW*

HAHA! I'm getting better in Photoshop! :]

That's Shikamaru's pic btw, that I, hideously manipulated to look eeky and totally gross. Bro let me use his stinking rich VAIO laptop last night and luckily I got my butt stretched for some Photoshop training.

Finally, eons after the written APEX, the heartbreaking panel interview is over. My hands couldn't stop trembling as the interviewers started hitting my guts with stabbing questions and gladly I made it alive. AP did tested my patience as I waited for almost eight hours just for the interview. I honestly don't really care if I get accepted or not. Maybe just having to experience being crapped into pieces is enough for me. Oh damn it. I curse myself for the wrong grammars and outwardly unrelated craps I bloated out in front of the judges, just as I curse these screaming freaky boys playing DOTA beside me.

I must submit to destiny's divine power to deprive me from my PC. OMFG>..<. ***currently entwined with some unreleased songs of Paramore. KEWL I LURVE IMEEM! *buttaches.

()()()()

I utterly ADORE this pic of Temari and Shikamaru *blush*.

FYI : I named my puppy Shikamaru and apparently due to my observations, the name really fits him cause he's effin lazy but intelligent! He can go upstairs already at such a tiny body. Kewlness. I'm gonna upload his recent pic so you guys can see how cute he is. :**:

I really enjoyed watching Death Note movies. I instantly developed a huge piece of crap crush for L.

I'm finishing off a less than a thousand words essay so I'll just stretch my thoughts further after I'm done with this. So patience guys, :], I've got lots to share and mumble and random farts you don't wanna know. :]

By the way, I'm sick of talking about politics already so good grief to those who are sick of it too. This blog will be dedicated to random farts this society brings.

I'm so excited I just can't hide it.

2008-08-18T20:55:00.002+08:00

My ass is worried about having stains all over my butt once I get off this slimy (exaggeratively speaking) plastic chair. I'm stucked typing my belly off in this one hell of a computer rental shop and sadly I must submit to the way of destiny and beg myself to finish typing my handouts and crawl off this place.

Mood changed. Must stop.

(Gay pride imitating the stupidity of PGMA, kewl)

(ZORO of the people)

"Don't speak liar..."

Exhausted yet fulfilled, the People's SONA proved to be solely for those who are deprived of everything PGMA is boasting about. Yes, the economy is getting better and stronger. Yes, there are a lot of improved infrastructures and problems solved by the administration but does these soulutions reach the MAJORITY?

Only a few benefited from her promises, only a few even understood her in her annual promising speech.

Here are some photos I personally took during the People's SONA. My heels are quite tired but upon hearing some talented people perform skits, songs and speeches are thought provoking. The stage became the showcase of truths and realities. How I wish PGMA will have the chance to hear these things and so as the other greedy politicians whose only aim is to look fabolous in the red carpet. BULLHEADS! SONA is not OSCAR'S! IT'S NOT THE TIME TO SHOW OFF SOME FANCY CLOTHES AND RIDICULE THE REAL SITUATION THIS COUNTRY IS FACING.

You know you hate me,

"I hoped for change, but still I feel the same..."

I wonder what's the next gimmick PGMA would impose on her SONA today. She'll prolly be exclaiming the great accomplishments she has done and beg for mercy to stop hating her cause she's trying too hard.

I don't hate her though. I just despise the system. PGMA won't resign even if there will be protesters hitting at her in Mendiola every single day. I don't think ousting a leader is enough to ease the pain and fill the stomachs of hungry Filipinos. The 'real' solution should not be temporary or 'band-aid' like.

It's not about the president. Not about the stupid useless projects she tends to cunningly trick our eyes. It's about the people controlling her. The elite people who rules with her. The capitalists whose greed are beyond compare. The foreign investors that seem to hypnotize our little Gloria.

Ordinary people are not allowed to even touch the mirrors of congress. Farmers are deprived of the attention and protection from the government. We may have the freedom to protest, but we are NEVER heard.

Even in the past EDSA Revolutions, it may seem like the Filipino people won the fight. But beyond the triumph, here we go again, complaining about the person we thought had saved us from doom.

The process of ousting the president-changing the president-ousting-changing-ousting..., must stop.

Everyone should be aware that whoever sits in the power will never change their lives. Unless that person belongs from the working class. Elites should by now rest from reigning and let the poor people rule this country. For that is DEMOCRACY.

We shouldn't be proud of our freedom to vote. That is BULLSHIT. We may have the opportunity to choose the leader we thought could help us but everything is not really as what it seems. Once the elections are over, Juan dela Cruz remain a slave for the power that he thought would benefit him.

Once again, Filipinos are fooled by these upper classes.

Do you still want to listen to PGMA? I do. Just for the sake of listening I would. But never will I be giving her a standing ovation or even dare clap my hands. A leader must learn to have some morals fixed first before daring to face this nation with her stupid looking gown.

I don't hate her, I just don't like her, and so is the system. Do you still want to remain ignorant of the situation? Or will you listen to the redemption song? Choose the latter, I'm willing to hum with you.

2008-07-25T00:29:00.004+08:00

Forlorn. Again.

My brain is malfunctioning. Dull things would linger in my veins. Thoughts of giving up are my only sensible choice.

Oh star fall down on me
Let me make a wish upon you
Hold on, let me think
Think of what I'm wishing for

Wait, don't go away.
Just not yet.
Cause I thought,
I had it.
But I forget.

And I won't let you fall away,
From me.
You will never fade.
And I won't let you fall away.
From me.
You will never fade away from me.

And now I let my dreams consume me,
And tell me what to think.
But hold on,
Hold on.
What am I dreaming?

Wait, don't go away.
Just not yet.
Cause I thought,
That I had it.
But I forget.

And I won't let you fall away,
From me.
You will never fade away.
I won't let you fall away.
You will never fade away.

And I won't let you fall away.
You will never fade away.
And I won't let you fall away from me,
You will never...

Oh star fall down on me.

"I'm always here to take your hand when you need someone to hold on to.
I'm always ready to listen, talk and keep you company even if it burdens me.
I can always punch you with these little hands when I'm pissed.
I won't stand here doing nothing when you mess up with yourself.
These palms you hold are yours,
Until the time comes you feel like you don't need them anymore.
I will always lend my hand out to you, reaching out,
Until the blood running in its bloodstreams stop fighting."

You see me walking around with my huge green tote bag. You see me happily munching on some donuts between classes. You see me not minding the heat and insists on meeting up few good old friends. You see me differently at school. You see me but do you really know who I am?

I'm a quiet person, usually seen talking to cats and trying to comprehend their response. My addictions varies from listening to really old songs my brother stored in my PC, watching chick flicks and cry, always cry at every happy ending, eat anything edible that is suited to my budget and reading anything that can be read by my curious eyes.

I'm sensitive and susceptible to a major nervous breakdown every time caught up in an uncomfortable situation. My eyes are always ready to cry a river anytime my emotional trash can disposes. My public display of weeping is unavoidable.

I have the ability to sleep with my eyes open. That talent, I am mastering by now through the help of my boring professors and freezing classrooms.

Besides all these hidden abilities I am slowly discovering, discovering who I really am is not that easy. I dunno. I suck at comprehending cat's language and so as comprehending myself.

2008-07-13T15:59:00.005+08:00

" I wanna taste it,
don't wanna waste it away..."

A lousy Sunday afternoon. My butt stucked in front of my PC. Feeding my ears with screaming boys. My day is perfectly hazy, stupidly dull and uninspiring. What more can I ask for?

While I was rewriting some of my notes in Structure of the English Language subject, I stumbled upon a brainless idea. What if I start to go to places I've never been before and begin my wildest dream of becoming an indie film director? WTFH. I don't even have a decent camera to kick off my filming.

Obviously, I always wanted to become an incredibly talented writer or director.

I've been through a lot of brainstorming (with myself) about really cool stories that will definitely trigger the happy senses in my viewers. A travel writer? Hell yeah! I can skydive for free, eat authentic [insert country name here] cuisine, meet lots of people with different cultures and doze off all day doing nothing by the mountains.

Of course, aside from having a trip around the world, I also want to be known in the film industry. I can be a scriptwriter, cinematographer, editor and director at the same time and win an Oscar with standing ovation in it. I dislike acting for some reason so don't expect me on The Buzz sometime in the future. I just want to work behind the camera prolly because I'm not really into showing off my cute face too much (LIAR! CAMWHORE!).

Here are some of the plots I formulated just this afternoon:

There's the undying love story of a blind woman falling in love with the guy always seated next to her inside the bus only identifying him by the scent of his perfume.

There's the old lady next door who aborts babies as a living. The poor fetuses will revenge on her mortal sin and are inspired to give her a little revenge. She will be gang raped by addicts at a dark, slimy dump site and be impregnanted. Over and over again until the last drop of blood in her genitalia mix with the mud.

There's the jeepney driver who sold his left eye just for gas.

And many more.

I still have a long narrow road to take. Happily, I'm still young to think of having such dreams. I don't want to be a part of the norm. Who would want to have the same bag as the others right? Who wouldn't crave for an individuality?

*knocking heads of our local TV stations who are now bringing forth the trend of COPYING shows from other countries and making a 'pinoy' version of it.*

jeep

2008-07-09T10:48:00.003+08:00

Dear jeepney,

You're the reason I know how to do this. You gave me knowledge cause you helped me gain them. This country would have never progressed without you. How come this world seems to punish you this time? You can't even feed yourself anymore. I wonder if you'll be able to drive your fiery wheels to your destination again, as the prices of your hardship slowly deminishes in the dusty roads.

I want to help you every time you cradle me in your lap. I sit diligently as you eagerly push your engine to the fullest. I want to ease both of our pains.

You are a King right? Your reputation is that of a luxury limousine.

How come a King, the King of the Roads, is now suffering as the oil that keeps it going seem to be scarce. What will happen if this King gives up the fight?

I am not gonna sit here whining about the situation. But what can I do? What can we do?

Congratulations myself, I am scheduled to face the last part of APEX and be grilled in the panel interview. Thank you Lord, I thought I won't make it cause in all honesty, I am not really confident in the things I wrote in my examination paper.

I guess I just have to break a leg. :].

OPINIONATED.

I want to make a stand in the issue about the seemingly endless price increase from food to oil products.

Some oil companies suggest that the increase should be done in a single slap in our wallets, that if in case implemented, will also keep the fares in our public utility vehicles rise inevitably.

As a commuter myself, my daily allowance will be greatly (MOMMY! HELLO READ THIS!!!) affected. Not to mention the escalating prices of food products a humble student like me tend to crave for in the middle of class periods just to ease the pressure and stress in studying (My habit).

No matter how I try to avoid the pains and struggles our society is facing today, it's a failure breaking away from these dilemmas. Maybe, just maybe, as what my Mom always reminds me, avoid spending too much on insignificant stuffs especially on food will greatly help me and so as the others who are having a hard time coping up with the changing times.

Economize, tighten up our belts, spend less than the usual, blah blah blahs, blame the government, blame God, blame ourselves, blame the oil producing countries, blame Earth for not making each country able to produce their own oil.

In the end, after all the cat fights and endless protests (which are practically useless), amendments of the rules, prioritizing alternative solutions are just some of the things our leaders, and those who are at the highest peak of power should consider.

There's Global Warming and nuclear weapons also threatening our modern day living.

Are you still up for the fight? Are you gonna stare your way to the norms and act like you don't feel the struggle? I have no idea how to answer my own questions either, but I know, just being aware of these things marks a big step in this era's aim for a better world.

expose

2008-07-06T20:08:00.004+08:00

EXPOSED!

This may not seem to look like a campaign ad but in fact, it is. I am aghast seeing this sticker inside a jeepney I am riding on my way home. Horrified as with the awful truth hit me, yes, GREED for power can be an early bird waiting for its worms.
A little advice for you Sir, try to have a bit of color coordination. That I guess, will somehow change the way we look at your ways, the helpful and those obviously senseless ones too.

Remember Senator Miriam Defensor Santiago's appeal on other politicians showing up in various ads with an obvious hidden agenda in it? I do, and I wanna let her know there is a much worse campaign propaganda being done by the seemingly silent predator we hate and almost loved.

At first when I saw the sticker, I laughed silently thinking could our politicians think of any design worst than this? I guess not.

And the bold '2010' says it all. Bayani Fernando is really creative and consistent. I remember once when there was a rule that no politician or any local official is allowed to put up his/her name in any public projects/structure.

In this case, if he/she is really the one doing the labor, sweating out blood and tears all day,all night, then maybe that would be an exception.

Still, I have to absorb the irresponsibility of SOME of our beloved leaders. SOME would even try out in the modelling carreer as their billboards unknowingly 'beautifies' our major roads. SOME would pose so good that even if they don't consider politics they will surely become the hottest models out there, somewhere.

IT'S SICKENING. When will be the time when no name, no face will be pictured as the 'HERO' of a certain 'project'? When will the taxes that came from the striving Filipinos be used for their own good, and not be labeled as someone Else's? When will the streets of our country, cleaned from the pictures and names of these cunning officials, taking advantage of their power?

All I ask for is for them to realize that the people DON'T care what their name is, or how they look like no matter how good or bad. I ask for service, that is transparent and not taking advantage for the sake of power or popularity that will lead them to the top of the political ladder.

The romance in my waffle

The paths are unknown
Its origin undefined.
Love, will you stay?
Even if this life
Brings us nowhere?

Love, will you perish,
Share the cuts and bruises,
Kept hidden in disguise,
Beaming with the shine of
Our hearts?
Sharing the same beat,
Pumping the same life?

I ask you love,
If you'll remember
The times,
The intimate moments?
Those black and whites
Rolling old and stubborn,
Young and restless?

Love will I ever dream not of you?
To lose or win I'll play this game.
I am nothing but sure of you,
For this mind is set to live
And die for this feeling
That is true.

The story 'The wedding dance' by Amador T. Daguio enveloped my sleepy heart with tears as the story's moving and loving resemblance opened up my day.I am obliged to read the selection because as an assignment, we are supposed to write its genre analysis paper. I never thought that before the sun even smiles at the morning sky, a love story will make me cry. If you want to read the selection, as well as other love stories compiled in this simple and irresistible blog click here.

According to the weather report, Tropical Depression "GENER" was estimated based on satellite and surface data at 360 kms west northwest of Coron, Northern Palawan (13.1ºN 116.9ºE) with maximum sustained winds of 55 kph near the center. It is forecast to move west northwest at 15 kph. In short, it will be rainy all over the country.

I have this weird feeling every time it rains. I love rain for the cool and strong winds blowing on my face. Not just that, it eases up my mind and slowly but surely keeping stress out of my system.

Oh rain. :]

2008-07-02T21:21:00.004+08:00

Owyeah. Incredibly the crisis is over and my internet connection is finally back to normal. I am relieved at the same time alarmed as my insomniac cells came back to life too. I have to stop myself before it attempts to take over my nights again.

The results for the APEX will be released this week and whatever their decision would be, I will gladly take it by heart. If AP deserves me, or not. Or the other way around.

I am not looking forward to having stressful nights making a newspaper but it is an honor to be the one working on a prestigious publication. My lazy ass may honestly not make it to their standards but I am willing to do what I can to meet my deadlines. And if ever they may not put me in the list of those who qualified, that would at the same be fine with me. Maybe I'm just not good enough in writing or this is just a phase I must survive.

...

I have a lot of reasons to be happy with my life right now and some of these reasons are my true friends and my Waffle. Thanks to them my ever endearing tear jerking depressing days of being an emo kid (metaphorically speaking) is over. Although I appreciate my Waffle more for his efforts to make me feel better no matter how big or small. I love it when he initiates to be humble even if I'm the one who did the wrong thing. I am aware of my mood swings and angry fists hitting his egos every time my jealousies triggers. I am aware of the bad things I say and do and I am also aware of the times insensibly I hurt him.

Yet still he manages to forgive me. For I am willing to forgive him no matter how big his mistakes could be. That is love. Loving my Waffle will never end, until some weird aliens actually shut down our feelings. I don't give a damn on those girls hitting at him, under my corpse will your ashes be burned.

For the love of sitting my butt off all day in the classroom and smoldering myself with make believes. Limping legs each time it crumbles, the dreams, the name , the unpredictable turn of events. Imperfect as we are, studying wholly for the sake of it is defined in poetic rebelliousness. Marked with undying hopes and endless cries that the clock starts to tick in the verge of dismissal.

I am looking for ways
to ease all my pains
the labor
the grief
triumphs and consequences
fears of losing
the brevity to excel

I am nothing but a stranger
to a world filled with utmost mysteries
I am here to search
endlessly through my days
dreams left for the higher beings
wishes, endless wishful thinking

To study the inevitable
cold hearts
harsh words
kept in sequence of torture and catfights
what do I have to do
but look for ways to
find what's true

My stomach aches,
butterflies evolving into moths of death
that name
uttered less by the superior means victory.
Absence, for my part,
a crime of luck and plain destiny.
Tardiness meant to alleviate
the religiousness in me.

I am nothing but a stranger.
I am nothing but a hole in the box.
Eager to learn how to fill my space.
Independently marking my spot
in this world filled with
infinite opportunities

(written on the spot, inspired my own photo taken at the top of Ylaya Mansion)

Prolly wondering why it took me almost two weeks (I am an airhead in counting stuffs) after my last update? Oh well, let's just say the worst thing in my internet psychedelic obsession habits already made its way to doomsday.

My internet is wrecked. Not working. Not connecting.

NO EFFIN DIAL TONE.

Sadness. I have no idea how to live without it and now I am back to my old sanctuary, the hot, crowded and mind boggling computer rental shop. No matter how I try to fix my PC I am caught up in the misery of failure. Oh, and yes, I am still in the world of DIAL-UP so bear with my disability to be fancy for my addiction.

Right now I am supposed to be making our group's written report for the Needs Analysis Plan thingy and because I love myself too much I am setting my academic whatevers aside and play with my words licking your butts off with insensible stuffs you guys prolly don't have any interest knowing about.

APEX 2008
I wanted to be a new staff for Ang Pamantasan (The official publication of Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila) and the only way to achieve such goal is to pass the APEX. Last Saturday (June 28, 2008), I was one of the first few who arrived early at the AP office. We took the exam at the Mabuhay Lounge and it was chilling cold courtesy of the unethical airconditioner. Thank goodness for the free coffee they offered I am thrilled to have some caffeine moment during the nerve wracking written examinations.

I loved the free lunch and snacks, the friends I instantly had (Ate Revina) whose every detail in her life including the most tragic thing that ever happened to her became an open book to me.

Thank you again to Ate Ella and Kuya Tofi from UP Manila who briefed me the night before the exams. I really appreciate their efforts in motivating me.

Whatever happens, there will always be next year. *snot*

FETE DELA MUSIQUE na!

June 21, 2008, 1pm start of the festivities
kita kits tayo dun :]

UPDATE: Luckily, I have no idea what kind of magical force hypnotized my prof that she gave us more time to prepare for our report. OHMAYGAS. Even though I came a bit late for class and my mind is still in bed, my alibis worked out. Thank God.

I dunno why I'm starting to adore my Mythology and Folklore class. At first, it seemed pretty boring and no doubt DEMANDING because of its LOOOOOONG readings and heaps of memorization thingies, I'm kind of fascinated with the deeper meanings of the stories. I mean, trying to find the connection of the stories to the present day lives of the people seems pretty much linked with each other. Just like the Pandora story where women are characterized evil and deceitful yet irresistable. Then eventually the society sounded more patriarchal which is apparently up until now is being observed.

Although I am not that excited reading lots of papers and trying to really extract such discoveries, I am looking forward to learning more from the subject. It's boring and may be a tedious study but I know it will be worthwhile in the end.

pagbabatikos/pweh

Hindi ka ba naiirita na sa bawat sulok ng Metro Manila eh napakadami mong pink na nakikita? Mapa-linya man yan o signboard mukhang nasakop na tayo ng Marikina. Hindi naman sa kawalang-galang sa butihin nating mga tagapagayos ng daanan at trapiko, medyo sumosobra na yata.

UNA, yung pink na line sa mga sidewalk, hindi ba mas 'formal' at mas color sensitive kung yellow o white nalang yung gamiting kulay? Parang fashion lang yan eh, pumili ka ng kulay na babagay sa iyo. Masyado naman yatang 'MMDA-ish' ang motif ng mga daan natin.

Minsan ko nang napanood sa TV ang interview kay Chairman Bayani Fernando na tinanong kung bakit pink ang napili nilang kulay para sa MMDA. Ang sabi nya eh mas kaaya-aya naman daw pagmasdan pag pink at madaling maka catch ng atensyon. I know it looks pretty and really an eye candy but not on the roads of Metro Manila where color is not that important. It may be alive and can ignite the senses of the people but simplicity is always the BEST.

I am not against the MMDA but here are just some of the flaws I see from them:

>WALANG TAWIRAN NAKAMAMATAY tagline posted on white bold letters with the signature pink backdrop. It sounds scary and can trigger the fear amongst jaywalkers but the statement isn't strong enough to avoid those who wanted an easier way to cross over to the road from choosing between life and death.

Just in front of the City Hall of Manila, there's this signboard right smack in the middle of the road. There are also traffic officials posted right next to it and (sarcastically) assists those who came out from PUJs to cross the street whenever the stoplight is beaming red.

I think they just wasted the money used to make the 'scary' signboard. In actual life, and in traits, Pinoys don't really care if you scare us to death. Our usual 'tigas ng ulo' (hard headedness) will always dominate our minds whenever caught to choose between the long tedious walking or the short and challenging sprint across the road.

Maybe it would be much better if they set up a more systematic way of preventing jaywalking.
Not by showing off these frightening statements in the intention to stir fear on our conscience. It looks like we are not educated well enough to actually realize the pros and cons of jaywalking. Although on our part, we should try the word DISCIPLINE when it comes to following rules especially on the roads where anything can happen.

>MMDA ART painted on the walls that are not that colorful enough? WTH. And you guys call it ART? I dunno. It looks ridiculous. I have no clue what kind of thing bashed the head of these 'artists' that they would paint such mediocre works of 'art' just for the sake of it.

It would be better if they painted murals that are culture oriented just like the ones in Rizal Park. I pity those who thought of splatting colors and making weird shapes as the 'art' appropriate for the major roads in the city.

*yawn* I dunno when this list will end and I am aware that I only enlisted just thhe first two so haay sobrang dami pa kasi ehh kakapagod at nakakaantok na i mention lahat. Siguro sa mga susunod na araw eh magpopost pa ako ng picture para malaman nyo rin in case na hindi kayo aware sa mga pinagsasasabi ko dito :D.

Kung ako lang naman ang Chairman ng MMDA, kahit medyo girly ako eh hindi ko naman sasabuyan ng kakikayan ang buong Metro Manila. I will be color sensitive and appropriate for the roads. May class naman at hindi over the top. Hindi naman din sa kulay lang yun pinagbabatayan eh. Sa serbisyo narin diba?

Dahil sa National Budget kinukuha ang ginagamit ng MMDA sa mga projects nila, sa taong bayan din yun nanggagaling. Kaya naman ang wais at mapapakinabangan ng hustong mga proyekto sana ang pagtuunan nila ng pansin. Yung urinals palang nila, parang isang napakalaking monster na iniiwasan ng bawat dumadaan sa bangketa. Sana eh nag spend sila ng mas matagal na panahon at pagpaplano ng strategies kung paano mas magagamit ng maayos at mapapanatiling malinis ang mga ito. Hindi lang simpleng yero nga pinagtagpitagpi at kinabitan ng tabo.

Hindi naman sayang ang malaki-laking perang gagastusin sa isang proyekto kung matagal na mapapakinabangan at hindi perwisyo sa tao ang dulot nito.

Sa aking pagtulog
yakap mo ang nagpapasarap nito
minsan ma'y ako'y malikot
pareho tayong iikot-ikot
sa kama ang himlayan
gabi'y puno ng pagmamahalan
mahal kong amo
ako'y nagsusumamo
kumutan mo naman ako
sapagkat ang aking mga balahibo
ay minsan nang naglagas at nakalbo

pagsusumamong mula sa puso
mahal na amo
ako'y pagbigyan mo
ramdam ko ang pagmamahal mo
sa tuwing ulo ko'y unan ang tiyan mo

sa gabing madilim at malamig
pagtulog ko'y ubod ng himbing
dahil ito sayo mahal na amo
maraming salamat sa iyo

A CRAZY FREAK

By: MKCT

when you came passing me by...

your hi is strong enough to make me cry.

as if in some moments of our time,

you forgot that you had been mine.

on the streets you make me suffer

cause you seem like a stranger ...

never meant to realize the love under.

i quit in making myself learn to forget...

but i don't know why each promises i break,

is so hard to follow and i always fake.

you're really something that had made me insane...

going crazy over your love that brings me in shame.

i should learn, in due time i will...

the days may fade and i lose faith,

i know the facts that i'll stay this way,

and no matter how many chances i will miss...

i'll jump down to the memories where i have been so dumb,

but wise and determined to have this,

the thing that sometimes makes me numb...

I won't be afraid to hunt for your LOVE.

Written four years ago...hahaha :D

astig no, ang hopeless romantic ko pala. Nax.

HELLO

Mommy. :D

CRAMMING AGAIIIIINN!!! GAAAH!

PIC OF THE DAY!
Girl Love? Hell no. One of the favorite shots
that I took nung buhay pa yung camera ko. Featuring
Sam and Anne :). Sweetness.

It's 5:30 am and my Child and Adolescent homework isn't done yet. Either I forgot about it (which I didn't) or my butt is just way too lazy for any researching stuffs. Anyways, my cramming skills will guide me nalang to excellence. Yeah! Strive for the maximum excellence! Go! WTH.

Sino kaya si Sicret? *hmm*

(nax! exposure!)

Speaking of exposure baka ma expose na naman ang late kong pagkatao at mawindang na naman ako sa kahihiyan kaya bago pa pumatak ang 6:00 ng umaga, (pano ba yun, ala-sais ba spelling nun? ahaha BUBIT), ako ay lalarga na.

Mamaya nalang ako dadaldal about sa kung ano man maisipan kong idaldal ok.

haha. babayu. :D

(PS. Foundation day na bukas at sa susunod na bukas! :D which makes it two days so Foundation days! HAHA.)

Manalo sana ako sa Bb. Pamantasan. Ehem. Nag back out po kasi ako eh masyado na kasing hectic schedule ko kaya medyo nagtampo sakin CHD bakit daw ako umatras eh kayang kaya ko namang talunin yung mga candidates. Sabi ko naman pagbigyan nalang sila tutal may next year pa. STUPID STATEMENT OF THE DAY.

Anyhoo, kudos to those pretty girls, bonggang bongga ang tarpauline nila malapit sa gate ahh, kinarir talaga ang pag promote sa hot chicks ng PLM. EHEM. Isa na ako dun. Pero di mo lang mahahalata low profile lang kasi ako. In fairness naman, walang halong yabang o pagiging BIAS, napakaraming magagandang dilag ang nag aaral sa PLM. Madami akong friends na ubod ng pretty thank God for them at medyo nahahawa na ako. HAHA. LOL.

Bakit nga pala kwento pa ko ng kwento wala namang kwenta?

Bye! Ingat! Mamaya na yung medyo may sense.

HELLO! Sa avid readers ko. :D *bow*

Friendster Horoscope for June 16, 2008

Capricorn (Dec 22 - Jan 19)

The Bottom Line

It wouldn't hurt you to have some more discipline in your life. Follow the rules.

In Detail

It wouldn't hurt you to have a little more discipline in your life, so why are you so annoyed by the prospect of following the rules? Knowing what is right and what is wrong doesn't have to feel stifling -- if you just switch your perspective, rules will actually help to simplify your life and give you a clear idea of the path you should be on. Playing around and goofing off is fun, but is it really getting you anywhere? This behavior is just keeping you going in circles.

***

We all break rules. None of us existing will have a chance to be called 'Innocent'. We all make stupid mistakes that we thought isn't really that huge but turned out to ruin a life. We all constantly make these violations in life unknowingly every single day. Jaywalking, littering, vandalism, stealing, loving. Yes, even love can be called a 'mistake'. Either you end up depriving yourself from it upon realizing its fatal effects or embracing its defectiveness. Although in life, you can't always be practical and wise upon choosing which is right from wrong. We can never be assured of our decisions unless we suffer from its consequences. We can never be happy without sadness. Life is all about contrast and manipulation of our own security. Breaking the rules can make you feel the power within you that you know you posses. Of course, that power expires and eventually punishment comes along to spank our asses. That's just the way it is. That's life. That's how we are meant to live. I jaywalk a couple of times on my way home from school. I intentionally sleep late for my own delight and intentionally think being late for class is OK. I shoplifted a pair of dangling earrings once at 168 Mall for the sake of feeling the thrill of actually doing it. (That was like four years ago). Last but not the least I loved the best way that I could. I wouldn't even dare call "love" a mistake. Never. Yes, we make mistakes while we are consumed by its spell but never in a million years sharing what your heart can give can be such a blunder. Break the rules and don't be afraid to face whatever aftermath it may cause you. Because you will never know when that point in your life comes that you learned a very important lesson out of it. Eventually letting you grow into a meaningful, sensible person.

Don't cheat. Don't do drugs. Don't support PGMA. :]

Nax! Exposure!

2008-06-15T01:25:00.005+08:00

PIC OF THE DAY! - Taken at Fort Santiago in Intramuros,Manila.
Kasama ko ang mga closest friends ko nung first year college. Enjoy talaga mag tour dun lalo
na pag palubog na yung araw, at bumaba ka sa DUNGEON. Damn, sobrang nakakatakot yung place na yun, as in. Kung gusto mong matakot sabihin mo lang sakin at dadalhin kita dun. :]

Kasalukuyang nag aadik ng Oishi Prawn crackers (Spicy flavor). Ubos na yung isang litrong Pop cola ko kaya sana wag akong mabulunan. :].

Nire-write ko yung syllabus na binigay samin para sa subject na Structure of the English Language. Mukha kasing kinayod ng manok dahil sa sobrang bilis mag dictate ni Ma'am Juliet T. Hernandez (nax, exposure!). Naalala ko nung unang pagpasok ko sa class nya kahapon, late ako nun kasi masyado akong naaliw sa pakikipag tsismisan sa shed. Dahan dahan kong binuksan yung pintuan at bumulaga sakin ang napaka mahiwaga nyang pangalan.

It's just weird kasi nung first semester sya ang prof namin sa EPI 1. Nung una we were rediculing her emphasis on pronounciation on certain words that would sound a little bit strange in our ears. Pero as days passed by, we eventually loved her method of teaching. Nasanay na kaming lagyan ng arte ang bawat salita na minsan parang bulol na kung pakikinggan.

I even remembered crying on our last meeting. She said na hindi lahat ng natutunan namin sa subject nya ay kung ano lang ang nasa mga notes namin. She thought us a deeper, far more life changing things that only us can discover, and I guess I did. Kasi ba naman, araw-araw ba naman sa ginawa ni God na may EPI eh puro "Strive for the maximum excellence" at "Do not just exist but have a meaningful existence" ang maririnig mo, tignan natin kung di mo maabot ang pedestal. Medyo sumabit lang sa grades pero kahit papano nadala ko hanggang 2nd sem ng first year yung mga affirmations na yun. Kaya naman di na ako nahirapang mag "strive for the maximum excellence" at bumagsak din ako sa pagiging English major.

Sa tingin ko nga this is really a work of destiny. Ever since High School kasi, I had this really weird view for my English teachers. Starting off nung first year High School, si Mrs. Dazon-Quito. Mataba at sobra kung mag-emphasize ng words every vocabulary words dictation nya. Pero nakakaawa dahil mga sugo ng kadiliman mga classmates ko at deadma lang efforts nyang mapatahimik ang class. Eventually she resigned nung taon din na yon.

Second year High School naman si Ms. Grace Ubaldo. Siya ang nag inspire na simulan ko ang career sa pagsusulat sa school organ. Simula noon, naging avid fan na ako ng pag take ng pictures ng events sa school at pagsusulat ng kung anu-ano sa dyaryo. Peak yata nun ng career ko dahil marami-rami din akong natutunan sa pagsusulat at pag join ng mga competitions. Thanks to her hanggang ngayon dala ko parin yung first love ko, and that is writing. Dahil mga alagad parin ng kadiliman ang mga classmates ko nun, hirap din syang mapa-focus at maayos ang flow ng class. Ewan ko ba pero naawa nalang ako sa mga teachers kong hindi na kayang ikontrol ang mga "holy children" ng school. Umalis din sya papuntang Australia and I think masaya naman sya dun.

Third year nagbago ang lahat. Medyo terror at nakakataas ng balahibo kasi si Ms. Alapide. Her tough looks can be really deceiving sometimes as she is a really sweet person inside. I think her strict rules especially on orderliness of the class boosts out the softer side of the little 'impaktos at impaktas' (kasama na ako dun). Dun medyo complicated dahil puro subject-verb agreement na. Bopols ako sa mga rules rules na yan eh. Yung has-have. WTH. Hanggang ngayon wag nyo kong asahan na kabisado at alam ko ang tamang paggamit ng mga yun. Kita mo na, bubit talaga ako.

OOPS TEKA MUNA!

BUBIT - salitang ginagamit ni Ma'am Amarillo (Biology prof.) na
tumutukoy sa mga mahihina umintindi ng mga bagay-bagay.

Last but not the least eh ang pinaka malambing pero mukhang terror parin na teacher ko nung fourth year High School na si Mrs. Marites Barredo. Nagtapos din sya ng BSE-English sa PLM kaya medyo yun na talaga eh, yun na yun. Dahil palaging huli pinapaakyat yung mga latecomers, unang una naman ang sermon sa amin nyan. Umagang umaga palang kung hindi ka nakatanggap ng sigaw sa nanay o tatay mo eh sya naman ang gagawa nun para sa kanila. Pag late ka kasi napakalaki na ng kasalanan mo. Ewan ko ba, pag nagagalit sya parang wala lang, fluent na english at malumanay pa. Saan ka pa.

Siguro nga BIAS ako dahil gusto ko talaga yung subject kaya siguro kung ganun nalang ang paghanga ko sa mga English teachers ko. Eh bakit yung teachers ko din naman sa Math eh love ko rin, ayoko lang ng subject nila. Tapos. Ewan ko ba kung bakit sa sinipag sipag ko eh pagdating sa math wala ka nang mapapala sa akin. Ganito talaga pag may kuya kang engineer. Lahat na yata ng katalinuhan sa math nakuha nya at wala man lang natira sa akin kundi swerte dahil nakakapasa pa ako.

grand entrance

Welcome sa unang kong blog na naisipan kong gawing taglish. I guess being an English major hurts even more kaya to lessen the pain and the bloodshed, let's make halo halo the two major languages of our beloved country. (I know I sound really stupid).

Maraming mga bagay bagay kayong mapupulot dito sa blog na ito. UNA na dun ang pagiging isang ganap na PGMA hater. Yeah, kung gusto mo sya pwes pwedeng pwede mo nang i-click yung close button. PANGALAWA ay walang katapusang ALAM MO BA? at NGAYON KO LANG NALAMAN. Alam kong alam mo na yung tinutukoy ko. PANGATLO ay ang walang humpay na inglesan at palaliman ng tagalog. Wala talagang direksyon, bahala na kung san mapunta ang utak mo. Wag mo kong kausapin at todo ingles ka dahil deadmahin lang kita. PANG FOUR ay ang pictures ng mga favorite kong puntahan na mga lugar, ang iba ay wala talaga akong choice dahil dun ako araw-araw dumadaan o kaya naman mga weird na bagay na feel ko lang kunan. PANG FIVE ay ang mga pahapyaw na commercial ng mga taong malapit sa puso ko at kahit yung mga hindi ko close basta kilala ko na feel kong i-mention dito sa blog na ito.

It's 2:00 am and here I am dead stucked in front of the PC trying to get a piece of something nice and edible. WTH. My class starts at 7:00 am and I haven't even ironed my uniform yet. Such a loser. Yeah, loser.

Kahit na sa bagong building kami ngayon nagkaklase, badtrip parin kasi hindi pa naman totally as in gumagana yung aircon ng room. WTH. What's the purpose of installing them anyway? Just to please our eyes and kill us craving for some comfortable studying?, I guess so.

pagbabatikos/disgust/pweh

Let's start off with the undeniably stupid 'economic holiday' proclaimed by PGMA. Akalain mo, June 9 na pala ang celebration ng Independence day ngayon? WTH. Kung ganito palagi ang mangyayari taon taon wala nang makaka alala ng tunay na diwa ng okasyon dahil lahat tayo ay busy sa pag-aaral at paghahanapbuhay. That's not the way a president should think Gloria, and why the hell are you putting your damn face sa posters ng bandila ng Pilipinas? BAWAL YUN DIBA? WTH.

Nakakairita talagang minsan ay di natin maiwasang matanaw ang sandamukal na mukha ng ating pangulo ng nakangiti at todo sa pag pose. Kahit sa LRT mukha nya at 'labanan ang kahirapan' na posters ang nakapaskil. Sa totoo lang, DI NA YAN MABENTA NGAYON. Nakakaburyo na, mismong pangulo lumalabag sa batas na bawal nang maglagay ng mga pangalan ng pulitiko sa mga project sites. Eh damn, yung mga PULIS OYSTER nga parang utang na loob pa sa kanya na NAGWAWALIS SILA NG KALSADA eh!.
