Way Back Into Love

[Verse 1]

I’ve been living with a shadow overhead,

I’ve been sleeping with a cloud above my bed,

I’ve been lonely for so long,

Trapped in the past,

I just can’t seem to move on!

I’ve been hiding all my hopes and dreams away,

Just in case I ever need them again someday,

I’ve been setting aside time,

To clear a little space in the corners of my mind!

[Chorus]

All I want to do is find a way back into love.

I can’t make it through without a way back into love.

Oooooh.

[Verse 2]

I’ve been watching but the stars refuse to shine,

I’ve been searching but i just don’t see the signs,

I know that it’s out there,

There’s got to be something for my soul somewhere!

I’ve been looking for someone to shed some light,

Not somebody just to get me through the night,

I could use some direction,

And I’m open to your suggestions.

[Chorus]

All I want to do is find a way back into love.

I can’t make it through without a way back into love.

And if I open my heart again,

I guess I’m hoping you’ll be there for me in the end!

Oooooooh, Ooooooh, Ooooooh.

[Middle-eight]

(Drew Barrymore)

There are moments when I don’t know if it’s real

Or if anybody feels the way I feel

I need inspiration

Not just another negotiation

[Chorus]

(Both)

All I want to do is find a way back into love,

I can’t make it through without a way back into love,

And if I open my heart to you,

I’m hoping you’ll show me what to do,

And if you help me to start again,

You know that I’ll be there for you in the end!

Oooooooh. Oooooooh. Ooooooooh. Oooooooh. Ooooooh Ooooooooh. Ooooooooh.

Every time I listen to this song, all I can hear is her voice. Then, I imagine her singing Drew's part, and me, singing Hugh Grant's part. Please, let me find my way back into love.


cheesy? haha.

I am Nature's Greatest Miracle
By Og Mandino


Since the beginning of time never has there been another with my mind, my heart, my eyes, my hands, my hair, my mouth. None that came before, none that live today, and none that comes tomorrow can walk and talk and move and think exactly like me. All men are my brothers yet I am different from each. I am a unique creature.


Although, I am of the animal kingdom, animal rewards alone will not satisfy me. Within me burns a flame which has been passed from generations uncounted and its heat is a constant irritation to my spirit to become better than I am, and I will. I will fan this flame of dissatisfaction and proclaim my uniqueness to the world.


I am a unique creature of nature. I am rare, and there is value in all rarity; therefore, I am valuable. I am the end-product of thousands of years of evolution; therefore, I am better equipped in both mind and body that all the emperors and wise men who preceded me.


But my skills, my mind, my heart, and my body will stagnate, rot, and die lest I put them to good use. I have unlimited potential.


Nevermore will I be satisfied with yesterday's accomplishments, nor will I indulge anymore, in self-praise for deed which in reality are too small to even acknowledge. I can accomplish far more than I have, and I will, for why should the miracle which produced me end with my birth? Why can I not extend that miracle to my deeds of today?


I am not on this earth by chance. I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink to a grain of sand. Henceforth will I apply all my efforts to become the highest mountain of all and I will strain my potential until it cries for mercy.


I have been given eyes to se and a mind to think and now I know a great secret of life for I perceive, at last, that all my problems, discouragements, and heartaches are, in truth, great opportunities in disguise. I will no longer be fooled by the garments they wear for mine eyes are open. I will look beyond the cloth and I will not be deceived.


No beast, no plant, no wind, no rock, no lake had the same beginning as I, for I was conceived in love and brought forth with a purpose.


And nature knows not defeat. Eventually, she emerges victorious and so will I, and with each victory the next struggle becomes less difficult.


I will win for I am unique. I am nature's greatest miracle.

---My fave speech made by one of my fave writers. I always use this every time I join contests when I was in high school.

Belated Happy Birthday Rodney!

It was a Saturday when Rodney's party finally pushed through. His birthday was on the 4th of November but he decided to celebrate it on the 12th. Actually, until now nagpaparty-party parin siya. He told me that his cousins is going to treat him this coming weekend. Month-long celebration, eh. lol.

His home is just few blocks away from us, (mga 50 na dougie lang, andun na ako.) so I did not have any problems with regards of the transpo. Some of my classmates who went and partied with us are from Marikina, Quezon City, and even Cavite. Basta talaga kainan, hahaha.We sang almost endlessly, did some crazy things, and drank a little of liquor na walang namang sipa. We're so happy that day that we almost forgot we still have acad stuffs left to do. It was a great escape from all the stress, especially for me. It was nothing but pure fun. 

Kahit super late na...Happy birthday dre!

Woooop! Our prof. in accounting, (which is our first subject) didn't show up. Then, our next class was just an orientation since it was just our first time to have class on that subject. Boring, uh? NO. Given that our prof. in accounting didn't show up in the first half of our class, we decided to go since we also have one hour break before our next class. Together with some of my mates, we went to Poreza to buy our book in Physical Science. We had small talks about our classmates, professors, subjects, and even marriage. I was surprised to know that the girls wasn't seeing themselves to have someone in life in the future. They just want to have their own child. No more, no less. Parang ang gulo. I just can't understand their own meaning of 'family'. Maybe, maybe it has something to do with their own experiences in their family that led to that thinking. I really don't know.

I just want to share this photo with my closest friends in the room. The girls in this photo are not the girls I was referring a while ago. Goodnight!

Puerto Princesa Underground River

Congratulations to all the Filipinos out there! The Puerto Princesa Underground River was hailed as one of the New Seven Wonders of Nature. This is a proof that we Filipinos can still unite to do something good for our country. 

This is absolutely a very positive news for everyone because this could give way to many advancements in our country, especially in the field of tourism. Palawan could directly benefit from this since their place could be known to the rest of the world. Kudos to all those who voted for the Puerto Princesa Underground River. Thank you, God.

You ruined my day again for the nth time!

Oh yes, I’ll be ranting for the very first time. Please, just don’t mind my grammar, coherence, or whatsoever. And just bear with me.

                                                                                                                         

I hate my brother. That’s a fact. I loath him as much as I loath the everyday traffic in the metro.

• He’s such a bummer, a fucking mofo who always puts our name in vain and in disgrace. Ok, I’ll let you pass with this one. I’ll keep my mouth shut with your disgusting, deep darkest secrets because I respect our parents.

• He treats his friends with extreme kindness. He never treated me fairly.

• I believe, he thinks that he’s big, worthy of praise, or someone who has accomplished something. Absolutely NOT. You never finished anything that you've started. (or you’re just fond of starting always all over again?)

• Acting like Mr. Know-it-all. No doubt that he knows almost every little thing in this world. You’ve been mastering first year college since ’06, right? Gah! Try mo grumaduate. And stop wasting our parents’ money.

• Lastly, what I hate most is that you make me feel like I’m the bad guy between the two of us especially when we are already in front of our parents. Yung, when we fight over something and mom or pops noticed it, paawa effect ka na sa kanila. Damn! Tsss

There are a lot more to say but I feel that this is enough. At least, I’ve already expressed this bursting anger against my brotha. Honestly, there are times that I wish I never had him as my sibling. He doesn’t even deserve to be called ‘kuya’ because he’s not showing to me what a big brother is like. Geez. What can I do? This is the hardest challenge that God gave me besides my studies, (love), and other stuffs. I'm really having a hard time to get along with my one and only sibling. I really, really hope that he’ll change. Let’s act our age, NOT our shoe size. Grow up!

Sorry for the foul words, but I mean it. Yeah, it's full of 'nevers'. haha. lol. Hope that my parents won't see this. They should not. I'll change my settings.

Sched

Here's my final schedule for the second term. 

It's a good thing that we only need to go to school 4 days in a week, which means, we have more time to study and to prepare for our class. Pinaka-heavy yung friday. Sunod-sunod! No BREAKS! But I'm excited for our very first Law subject which is Obligations and Contract. It's like it has a certain je na sais quoi that makes me excited for it. Although, it may take a while before we meet our professor in Law because we learned that he's mother just passed away, but still I'm looking forward for it. I hope everything would be settled soon. May her mother's soul rest in peace.

We're already in our second week. Everything seems to be working out well for me, except for one thing, our cheating arrangement este our seating arrangement in accounting is fucked up! well, i guess it's just for me. haha. First-come-first-serve basis kasi sa room. I  came late (yeah, my fault), so I ended up in the fugliest place in the room. Mas gusto ko kasi sa harap ng prof. It's easier to make 'sipsip' to professors kasi when you're sitting in front, haha. LOL. (I'm just kidding.) The real reason why I want to sit in front is because I can give my full attention to the prof. Less distractions from detractors and more focus to the lessons. Anyhow, thanks to my height, pansinin parin ako. 

Assez for me! Imma study now.
