Seven Messages to Seven Special Persons

1 comments

Person 1
You're Like the TIDE. You go up, you go down. Like the water, you're hot and you're cold. You made me confused. You are confusing me.

Person 2
I simply miss you. I simply miss us.

Person 3
I apologize for not being to express my feelings when it was still there. Regretful, I am. I nearly had you. Nevertheless, we're really happy now. Lezz be friends. Good friends.

Person 4
We could have had it all, but you screwed it. You're the best thing I never had, so far.

Person 5
Hi. Yeah. I'm sorry. I wasn't able to pull that off. I know that the feeling really is there. I mean, I have the guts to tell the whole world that I had the chance on you. I feel that you liked me, yet you told me that you're closing some doors for now. I understood that, I was willing to wait. I apologize, though, I wasn't able to live up to that promise to myself. Again, I apologize. Big time. I'm giving up on us.

Person 6
I have loved you, and I still do, but with the rate that things are going, I really have to let the feeling subside.

Person 7
Hi. I'm starting to like you. I want to know you more. Please welcome me in your life.

not that i don't like you, i just don't like this feeling. don't wonder if i veer away, or i no longer make pansin you. this is just me trying not to think of possibilities and not trying to entertain the feeling. :X nevertheless, you will see me around. i will try to tell the whole world who you really are; whose name i've been writing beside mine; whose name is always in my journal; whose simple thought of is an extra beat to my heart; whose profile i've been constantly viewing; whose smiles and stares i can't resist; all these, altogether, when i am ready, when i know that these no longer matter because you were just part of a past and of a future that definitely will not happen.

ENVY

0 comments
I envy you.
I envy how many people want to be with you.
I envy how they react when you're around.
I envy how many fingers have tried to search you over facebook
just for them to at least know some facts about you.
I envy how your smile can melt the hearts of men and women alike,
how they treasure the moments you gave them your precious stare.

You are lucky you have someone, at least one, envying you.
I envy you, but there are too many out there who are envying me because I am close to you,
because I know of you more than what everyone know of you combined.
They envy me because I can talk with you any time, be with you any time.
They envy me because we share laughter, not just smiles, and tears, not just stares.
These, all these, make me think how good I am at making people envious of me.
I shall keep things this way.
Just be around. XD

This I Listened for 3 Long Hours

2 comments
YOU and ME - Parachute. You familiar with this song? How about the artist? Still doesn't ring a bell? That's exactly the same reaction I had when a close friend of mine introduced to me the song. (and BTW, he's so mainstream, and gay. XD) I didn't appreciate it the first time, yes, but having it heard for the second and for the third and for the nth time created an impact on my long list of not-so-famous-favorite songs. TADA!!! If I had my iTunes functional. this song will brim its way up to top 5 or top 3 most played.

Song's about the concept of the Madonna-Lady-Gaga-Britney-Spears-Lidsay-Lohan' "me against the world," only that this time there's a YOU, making it YOU and ME agaisnt the world. (that was a very intelligent statement I got there huh. haha) There was this guy having a dream and along with him is his girl (or his guy) doing the act of stealing, and yes, the world goes against them. That would be the very literal meaning of the song, though. I leave your interpretation to you.

(i thought embedding YouTube Vids is no longer allowed. Well, anyway, here's the video of the song. hope you appreciate it.)




"Oh I keep waking up in an empty bed,
and it's reminding me of all the things I should have said,
and all we could have had."

To Do List: For my Short Lifetime

0 comments

I was thinking lately what I really wanted in LIFE. I have always believed that one should do things because he wants to do it, not just because he can do it or these are the only things that he can do. This will be my first post after a 6-month-hiatus, so I might as well post a not-so-public list that I want to attain. The list goes like this:

1. Manage own business. Be a CAPITALIST.
As a graduate of Political Science, I have been exposed to the the disadvantages of capitalism and to the perception of how flawed it really is. I would like to go with the flow this time, though. I'll look for other means where I can channel my service--not through the abolition of the flawed system--but through entering into the system and institution itself. But before that, I want to attain personal desires first, and being an entrepreneur and a businessman will answer that. Moreover, my personality fits the career so well. Just in case you do not know, I don't want to have a boss. I want to do things my own, so better yet I attain this goal of mine. :) Now na!

2. Found a group of Advocates for an advocacy, preferably for the environment.
Climate Change has been a constant topic of tabloids and newspapers lately, but my advocacy will not be focused on that. Bottoms-up approach as a framework will define my advocacy on tree-planting, most especially on water-deficient areas such as Cebu and some parts of Mindanao.

3. Learn how DIVE and DRIVE.
I have always been frustrated with the former because much as how I am good at swimming, that is exact opposite of how bad I am at diving. Looks easy, but it's really very hard because of my body structure. I have a really big lower limbs, makes me heavier in the lower part than the other half. On the latter, I have been envying my once best friend Eben in his driving skills. I wanna go places ya know, and having a fast car will give me a ticket to anywhere.

4. Audition for a REALITY SHOW.
Would that be singing, dance, or a plain drama reality show, I would really love to audition for it. I have once auditioned for singing and dancing competitions, but I want to raise the level of my curiosity to a higher level. I wanna go national or international. LOL

5. Sing at a Bar (in a high chair)............ or at a Wedding
I wannu go formal this time. I wannu go chilling, or serenading a couple's heart. I sing, but I do it most of the time in the karaoke or the bathroom. This time I wanna sing on formal occasions and on formal audience.

6. Surf. Or Skim.
I LOVE THE BEACH. Really. I tried skimming once, and I really sucked at it. It hurt my chest, and scratched my tummy and arms. I sucked at it, but I wanna try some more. I love surfing. I love big waves, and I prefer raging and raving waves over a relatively peaceful waters. SO yeah, need I say more?

7. RIDE A BANANA BOAT.
I Love the thrill that it gives me, well at least when I am looking at the riders. I wanna try that one with my friends who don't even know how to swim and look at their fearing expressions upon the tumbling of the boat. I am evil, I know.

8. Go to Venice.
Venice just gave me an oh-so-good feeling. I once dreamt that I went there, and when I woke up I felt like crying. I don't wannu leave, but I have to wake up. Nuff said, I wanna go to the so-called sinking city and try whether my swimming powers will work there.

9. Be a UN Volunteer. Or a National Geographic Researcher.
This should top my list (although this ironically I put in the last portion). I am a people-, extrovert-introvert-, high profile-, outgoing-, spontaneous- and risky-person. When I get this dream job of mine, I will treat you all with my love. :D

10. (I nearly forgot this one) I want to be with you.
AGAIN, NEED I SAY MORE?


So yeah, that will be my first post for now. Keep tuned. See you sa next post. :)

Yes, I'm BLOGGING AGAIN

0 comments
After six months of being idle, I am writing again. Here's a random post:

**********************************

I write in the simplest manner there is possible. I'm not good at words, nor at expressions, and neither do I use terms beyond my poor set of vocabulary. I don't read a lot, I only watch movies when I want to, subscribe to a TV series when time permits so, and listens to music only when I find the desire listening to crappy-pop-and-RnB-dominated charts.

I suck at writing, really. I cannot find the best possible term that will fit my statements, terms you can only find in the books, movies, TV series, even music. Most importantly, I do not use the dictionary or the thesaurus in search for better expressions slash terms.

But btw, what am I talking about, really? I was supposed to write something about YOU, and YOU and ME, and YOU and ME and the REST, yet I'm talking about my writing style and writing influences, and how simple I am in expression of my unuttered words. But well, anyway.....

At first there was YOU, or maybe there was ME, and then there was YOU and ME. The first time I saw you, I thought you were special. It wasn't the same as love-at-first-sight kind of feeling, but 'twas more of I-know-that-you're-gonna-be-special feeling, or better yet, I knew you were special. Not long time ago, I met you. Your face barely registers in my mind. You have that very common face, that very usual look that my mind fails to distinguish you from the others, that when I try to remember your face I still need to look at your facebook page and say to myself, "yeah, there, that's your face."
