One anime I can never forget is "Sneezing Magician" when I was around 7 to 8 years old. It was a fun series until its ending flooded my eyes; Hachu (the genie and main character) has to find a new master. His lamp (actually, a vessel) would fly and leave his current master during a lunar eclipse. Everyone who knows the genie and loved him did their best to stop it from happening but sadly, their efforts were put to waste. The ending: the vessel flies away as the current master, the one we enjoy for the full length of the series, cries in the streets. The silly-old-younger-me was left crying for that ending for half an hour after the show ended. Now I know why fairy tales are meant to have happy endings. I now understand why Little Mermaid and Hercules ended happily ever after on Disney. Children will be depressed.. or, so I say, crybabies will be depressed.</span></div><div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

I'm proud of this! It's not the number of things I have written that makes this project successful; it's ALL the work I've done. I can now look back and see how I've squeezed my thinking meat to get a juice that can be used as ink on a piece of note pad. I can now also look back at this post and see how much I've tried to convince myself that it's okay (LOL).</span></div><div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

But I am also planning another blog and another project which does not involve writing anymore. Many ideas, as always, are hitting my head like thunderbolt.Before I forget, huge acknowledgement to those who supported this project: My number one fans, Micu, Ghie, Yanna, and of course, Florenz. My gratitude is also extended to Eizen, Mark Ryan, Miss KC, Aljo, Therese, Jezz, and George.. For what? For taking a peek at my nonsenseness! Haha!The biggest thanks to Hiroki for giving me this idea, of course! My career manager!However, someday in the future, I might start over with E 365. Hopefully, it would be successful at that time.</span></div><div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

She can't remember the name of who wrote it, so I'm sorry if I am not able to acknowledge that GREAT PERSON. I'd rather speak less and let this person do the talking:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan; font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;">CREATE A GREATER YOU. Create and live a life that is so good, it doesn't matter if anyone comes along.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;">Say yes to every opportunity to make new friends, meet new people, try new adventures.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;">Get busy living the life of your dreams instead of looking for the man or woman of your dreams.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;">It's like the proverbial butterfly: once you stop chasing it, it will gently land on your shoulder.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;">Instead of looking for the right partner, become the right man or woman...for you.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;">Be your best, deepest, truest self. Make yourself attractive to you.</span></span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-4055780401563469332011-06-15T13:28:00.000+08:002011-06-15T13:28:22.208+08:00E 72: This Territory Goes Uncharted<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6fa8dc;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">This place is damaged; cracks on the wall, paint scraping off, stuff disorganized, bugs and rodents running around. It would not always be like this. From time to time, I rebuild this place; I paint, I cover, I sweep, I wipe. But whenever someone comes around, it is never a failure to bring back the damages.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Rebuilding this place is never a tough job; I always have the determination (and the music) to keep myself up and make the best of the things here. With the right paint, the right seals, the right furniture, and the right pesticides; I'm off to another fresh start. Then somebody would come along and share insights about the right color to paint, the right brands to choose, and the right wood to use. At first, it would usually seem so good. But in the long run, I'd realize that the suggestions were unreliable, and that everything is once again falling apart. The final blow would usually be the leaks.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">How can some great suggestion become something so less?</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6fa8dc;">Getting accustomed to the series of maladies of the broken place, I, now, once more rebuild the place this time with the suggestion of an expert; me. Nobody knows home better than the resident. This time, I'd put more mirrors so that I would be able to reflect and even those who come in. And this time, I am paying the advice of Sara Bareilles to keep this new territory uncharted. This time, it wouldn't be easy to let people in. I'd put on a bell at the door, so that the next time someone tries to enter, I could ask myself, "Does that ring a bell?"</span></span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-68019295447574708082011-06-08T15:15:00.000+08:002011-06-08T15:15:03.740+08:00E 71: Wishlist for The 24th<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">I'll be 24 on the 24th. I rarely ask for gifts and even thinking about what I want on my birthday is like throwing an imaginary coin to a wishing well. But anyways, it's fun to list down things I want to get so I'll be jutting them down here. Anybody may give it to me; I'd uberly appreciate it since I've never received birthday presents for ages. So, here:</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">1: Enchanted Kingdom Ride-all-you-can ticket. I've never been there, and my childhood will never end unless I've tried most of the rides there. Let me reach adulthood after 23!</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">2. Fabulous polo shirt. I'm into polo shirts now in preparation for my future. Nah, don't ask.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">3. Pants. I prefer skinny ones, and they should be black; can be worn causually or formally. Suggestion: Folded and Hung pants.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">4. Ipad. Need I say more? More! Ipad and MORE iPad!</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">5. Accessories. Rocker style is preferable. I would appreciate more if I receive nice earrings!</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">6. A dinner at a good restaurant. I'm becoming a food lover so add something up for my favorite food list!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">7. Portable DVD player. Hey, this is an affordable gadget I really want to have. I'd kiss whoever gives me this.<br />
8. Time. Quality time with a good company matters to me. Even if we don't have to spend a dime, a well-spent time with anyone will be greatly appreciated.<br />
9. Pizza! If you're gonna give me some, make sure there's enough for my family.<br />
10. Love. The best present ever. :)</span></span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-29330928719739390692011-06-08T15:07:00.000+08:002011-06-08T15:07:38.639+08:00E 70: Good Morning Eric<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">I woke up today with that comfy feeling on my bed. The first thing I do in the morning is check my phone, so I found a sweet message and realized that I have overslept. My ears adjusted and discovered through the pitter-patter on the roof that it was raining--the reason why I had a nice sleep. Discovering that it was a perfect morning, I had myself hot noodles to match with the weather.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Everything was going right until I realized while bathing that I was supposed to be in the office earlier because I have to catch up with my quota the recent day. Hurrying did not help as I failed to find my jacket anywhere in our house. I've flipped all hanged clothes and it's nowhere to be found. So, I settled on wearing a sweater.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">As I prepared to take off, my force field AKA headset was missing! I recalled that I left it downstairs on a chair. I texted my father only to find out that our dog, Lucky, has broken my auditory escape from mankind.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">And as I made my way to work, my shoe's sole got broken.</span></span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-56341137756223049392011-06-03T19:16:00.000+08:002011-06-03T19:16:52.473+08:00E 69: Red and White Wonderland<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">It starts with all the teasing you could have in the world. You anticipate what's coming. Suddenly, you go in or you are let in. It's a whole new world of fantasy. There are red and white in this parallel universe. It is not too big but you get lost in it. At first, you think you can only go in and out. But as times goes by, you realize that there are twists and turns.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">Your mind is blown. Your head gets lost. You suddenly receive a wave of pleasure and it comes on and off. You have felt it before but now it gets better.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">Greater.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">There is quickness with it, and it would last for so long. The pleasure is too much to bear that you want it to stop, yet, you still want it going on. You get fucking confused. Yes, "fucking" confused because it drives you insane, crazy, mad! You reach for something, you want to push it off but then, you think twice. It's feels great! Too great! No, just great! Too great!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">You twist, you try to pull yourself off, you scream, you yell, you shout, you whine, you beg, you squeal! It's a torture of pleasure. You don't know how it would end. You just know it feels great.</span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-34932145384632448872011-06-02T17:00:00.000+08:002011-06-02T17:00:13.202+08:00E 68: What Cheating Is<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">In a Holy Week, my friends and I decided to travel to some quite far place to unwind for the rest of the weekend. As we found ourselves under the slight influence of alcohol at a certain later time in the evening, we reached a point when we wanted to talk about something deeper. Hence, I opened the topic about cheating for the four of us. Suddenly, the house we were in turned into a session hall where a definition of a word is being discussed to finalize what is going to be in a dictionary.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">What is cheating?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"It is when a person in a relationship flirts with another person."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"Wait, we cannot really claim that cheating."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"Why is that?"</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"Sometimes, what we do do not seem like flirting. Instead, our partners would only think that it is."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"Okay, then what is flirting?"</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"When one, who is in a relationship, tries to go beyond friendship with someone else."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"Like..?"</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"Hmmm..."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"Let's say you say too sweet things to someone else."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"Or hold their hand...?"</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"Or use sexual innuendos?"</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"Probably."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"But let's say that I am only a naughty person, and you guys know me a lot that I just joke around and try to hold one's hand or attempt to kiss but not really want to do it... And I know that person's lover and that lover knows that I just do it without any malice at all. Will it be accounted for an act of cheating?"</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"Hmmm..."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">Thinking..</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"Maybe not."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"I think so too. Well, there are people who JOKE around like that but really have the intention. Knowing myself, I know that trying to really "FLIRT" is not my intention. I've done that a lot since I am the biggest joker in our circle of friends."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"Okay, let's put it this way: The lover doesn't know that you're doing it to his or her partner.Do you think that would be a form of cheating?"</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"I think only the person in the 'cheating' situation should know whether what is happening is a form of flirting or not. The person in a relationship who is being 'flirted' or 'flirting' someone should be able to distinguish if his or her act is a form of cheating or not."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"And he or she will be guilty if he or she knows deep inside that he or she cannot mention it to the partner. So, it depends on the person who is in the situation?"</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"I think we should base it on both the person and the partner."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"How is that?"</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">"If the partner does not favor what happened with his or her lover, I guess that's already cheating. The lover should also know that, too. So cheating basically depends on what they think of the situation."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">There ends the story. Then, I thought: What if the couple cannot agree with each other; A thinks he or she does not flirt while B thinks it is a form of cheating. I really think it depends on the person who is in the situation that is allegedly a form of cheating. One should know if his or her acts mean something else, that it can lead to disloyalty. By knowing that his or her act can make someone else fall for him or her, knowing that he or she might fall also, and knowing that it can emotionally wound his or her partner, one could possibly deny that it is cheating. I think it can be bad at times, but maybe sometimes, one just finds someone new and better. But anyways, the best thing to do to avoid this is to know one's limits. Anyway, I still find this topic a little complicated.</span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-54973028310385774632011-05-26T11:40:00.000+08:002011-05-26T11:40:19.048+08:00E 67: I Didn't; I Do<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">I see the sunlight.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />

And for me to count those that I know who are really nice, they can all represent the finger in my hands and there are still available slots to fill in.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">One of the closest that I could get is my friend whom we'll call here by the name of Salt. Salt is an example of a person whom you cannot think of doing something nasty nor mean yet, knows how to be "bad" at certain times.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">I used to not believe that a person can be nice and at the same time, survive the real world. But there's Salt and her persistence to solve problems with wise decisions. She knows how to act according to situations. She knows mostly what's right and wrong. She knows how to handle problems. Yet, all of these are done without letting herself be pushed into using bad ways.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">No, Salt is not perfect. She commits mistakes. She can be mean at times. She knows how to get along with others despite differences. I guess that's what makes her realistic and human.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">Another person I believe to be extremely nice is someone whom I'd call here as Regine. She almost have the same personality as Salt's. I think I could only point out their differences like Regine's a book junkie, a more religious person, and a milder version of Salt. Regine was my classmate and was an avid follower of my blogs. She would usually push me to continue writing and is actually one of my greatest inspiration in writing. We would usually agree with a lot of stuff despite me being really mean. But don't forget to note also that Regine can also spit mean statements at times and that makes me laugh knowing she's very soft and prim. But in general, you can classify Regine as a total obsessive compulsive freak--which is probably why she's so light and sunny. She just wants things in order.<br />
Knowing these two girls is like seeing a part in life that is not stressful. One cannot think of the terrible things a person can have when one knows them. They stand out in their own kind ways.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">I used to believe that being usually nice is for losers, but they prove me wrong.</span></span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-7700134235408625332011-05-26T11:35:00.000+08:002011-05-26T11:35:05.590+08:00E 65: Crawl If You Must<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">They don't like you. You know to yourself when you are right and you know when you're wrong. You know that they say things about you and they just hurt badly. They never get tired of the same issue. Now they throw these balls of fire onto your soul and try to burn you down until you give up on their knees. But you know that these balls of fire are only created by the power of their minds.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">They try to be blind and try to just push you down, and you don't know why.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Stand up. Lift your head up. They're trying to act mature even if the reasons behind them are childish. The important thing is that you are aware with what you've done, you listen to constructive criticisms, and you shun nonsense. This is the world today; it's a huge jungle and people try to build a food chain which favors them. That's not how we live. We just strive for doing the right thing. It's impossible to be always right, but doing our best to be right can enhance us in this struggle for a better world.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">Go, continue walking. When they push you down, don't be embarassed to crawl; they may have gotten you on your knees but prove that they cannot stop you from moving on. You know the right arms to use, the right hands to hold, the right way to head onto, the right words to spit, and the right fist to clench. And when all these things happen to be used wrongly, bend, be humble, 'cause like everyone else, you're human. We are all sinners. That fact shouldn't keep you down; it should challenge you in proving it wrong.</span></span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-46758116053628599802011-05-21T19:07:00.002+08:002011-05-21T19:07:39.922+08:00E 64: My Friday Peeps<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;">There is that feeling after a long week of work, you just want to unwind and do something that is not work-related with your officemates.<br />
One time we were standing at our building waiting for a bus home when a thought struck us: Let's go to Tagaytay! It was a summer mid-evening and we suddenly thought that witnessing the sunrise at a majestic place with the sight of the beautiful Taal volcano was a very splendid idea. We decided to go as buses heading that way go through the road we were on. We had the cash and enough enthusiasm to sniff the early Tagaytay morning air.<br />
Then, we took upon the consideration that we were wearing shorts and thin clothes. We have just had a summer theme in the office that day. Tagaytay is a much colder place and we figured that going there wearing only flip-flops and shorts is a suicide. They asked our friend George if they could borrow some stuff that could cover their about-to-shiver skins. I had no problem; I thought I would outlast the temperature with my summer outfit.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;">But it was all hassle to go at George's house. And George was not sure if she could let them borrow some clothes also. So, we thought of other ways for along time.<br />
Then, we decided to just go to Jupiter--that planet where a lot of restaurants and KTV bars rest. We took a cab spaceship and later on, we were rocking the early morning out with some songs, drinks, and fancy food. Despite being tired, we were not kept from keeping our spirits up. Afterall, we cannot just share our stress with each other all week long; we deserve to share our joys in the end of that week.</span></span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-79672403077742982332011-05-16T17:49:00.000+08:002011-05-16T17:49:44.583+08:00E 63: Tik Tok<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Silence can be really freaky at times. I'm not sure if silence has already killed anyone but I think it's enough of a torture. There are times it's used to keep a wronged student bored in detention or a lover freaking out trying to guess what's wrong.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">I'm freaking out. There are tendencies in me that surface in my mind and want to break loose. Has it ever happened to you? You sit on your chair, working, and all you hear are the tapping of keyboards, the some time sounds of foot steps, and some sneezes of your officemates. Your music does not suffice your interest anymore and what you're doing is suddenly making you too listless.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">I just suddenly thought of playing aloud "Tik Tok" while pushing my chair around with me wherever its wheels take me. I'd scream if I wanted to. Then others will join! They feel the same way as I do. They started singing and dancing along with the song as if we're on a Glee episode. Some will even stand on their station's table, use a brush as a microphone and sing!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">The office just suddenly seems so human!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">Truth is you can't do these things. The keyboards are tapped, some footsteps are heard, and someone sneezes at times.</span></span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-40931044830861394912011-05-11T20:13:00.000+08:002011-05-11T20:13:46.232+08:00E 62: Lighten Up<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">I was a person who doubt a lot of things. A little skeptic, yep, that's how I was. We can never really trust things a lot with how the world goes today, can't we? Everything seems to be motivated by self-interests.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Then I came to the point when I got knocked in the head by what seems to be a coconut from the tree of epiphany. Doesn't doubting too many things make us sad? I used to think that seeing the wrong in things that seem so right is a key to wisdom. Until now, yes, I still do. But now to the point that I strongly hold on to that opinion anymore.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">You see, life is as simple as it can be. Things are just what they are though they can be surprising at times, but everything is just... What it is. Then came people who dug into the deepest cores of things and started to complicate everything. Truth is that everything is complicated in their simplest ways. We just make them too complicated that we start losing hair.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">I believe in the Yin Yang principle, that balance is maintained in the world. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">We need to see what's wrong to know what's right. We need to fall to know how to stand up again. We need to feel pain to know what pleasure is. But there are times that we ought to be happy--not that we close our minds to reality, but we just have to accept things as they are and do our best to make things right. Being happy is not letting things just happen; it is making things right by having an open mind to things that we should accept. Everything exists for a purpose--but don't get me started on cockroaches.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Life is fun. Love is all around. Sometimes, we have to take things slow to know what we could be missing. Let's step back from all the chaos and see what's in store for us in a day; a friend, a present, a funny situation, or a lover.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Let's not forget how to be happy every once in a while.</span></span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-19436909331118142922011-05-10T22:46:00.001+08:002011-05-10T22:46:26.745+08:00E 61: Ijimete Mitai<div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">The Rules:</span></div><div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><br />

The world is a little bit sepia. In the middle of the summer, you seek for something interesting to do. You go out, go to the mall, see what's in the movies, and see what food is good to eat.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">The freshness of the air conditioner in the mall gives us a reason not to leave the place. The beautiful sunset at the bay makes it hard for us to stay inside. Everything seems so right on this day. You think that you've gone through hell then heaven comes along unexpectedly.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">Surprise.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">Music plays. The sky brightens. People seem to be friendlier. The earth seems impossible to end. Oh, who put the flowers around this place? Did I ever ask for birds to sing? No need. But I guess that's nature. That's the beauty of nature's surprises.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">I really got nothing to say.</span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-59953942807942594462011-05-06T22:38:00.000+08:002011-05-06T22:38:32.720+08:00E 58: Mama<span style="color: cyan;"> </span><span style="color: cyan;">Exactly a year ago, I received two call that gave me exact opposite feelings and played with my security. The first call, in the middle of the day, came from my new employer, telling me that I was hired for this new job. The second call came from my father, telling me that my mother was already in a bad condition in the hospital.<br />
I rushed my way there and found my father holding some sort of device that pumped air into my mother's mouth. Just the sight of it already defined what the day was in store for us--excuse me for being morbid that time. I stood beside him, saw my mother's eyes closed, and her breathing was really weak. The device was the only thing that kept her breathing according to my father. We took turns in pumping it.<br />
A male doctor gave an impression of the Grim Reaper as he bowed down and told me that my mother would not last long anymore. </span><br />
<span style="color: cyan;">My siblings arrived, hours passed, and we were all there for our mother. Sadly, the youngest, the only girl among us, stood outside because kids were not allowed inside.<br />
Mom's brother and mother arrived. Later on, the end of a great life has arrived. We suddenly noticed that mom was too quiet. Father told me to call the doctors. I couldn't find the words to say; How can you utter to them that your mother's dying?<br />
The next thing I knew, doctors were around the bed, they were trying to revive her. It went on for almost half an hour. My little sister helplessly stood outside, at the glass door, not knowing what was happening. After all, there was already nothing.<br />
Nothing.<br />
Two feelings conquered my heart: Sadness for the loss of a person who inspired me a lot in life and relief that she no longer suffers from her illness. I stood there beside my brother as we looked at the horror the hospital have painted on her on the last day. She could have passed away in some more peaceful manner.</span><br />
<span style="color: cyan;">I started to look at medical technology as monsters that can either help or destroy you.<br />
Days after, it was mother's day. It was quite different then that we greeted her as she only laid in a box and that my little sister and I couldn't playfully hug her anymore.<br />
Before we start looking for love that we can have for the rest of our lives, let us not always forget to look back to the love that raised us unconditionally: the love of a good mother.</span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-81294478175000887572011-05-05T15:26:00.004+08:002011-05-05T15:27:24.346+08:00E 57: My Birthnight (Revised)<div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">Locked inside, alone, filled with hatred, I sat at the end of the bed with mind overflowing with memories; bad and nothing good. I had no idea where to go now. There was no escape from this nightmare. I looked at the drawer. Inside the topmost drawer dwells the weapon of my mortality. I got off the bed and pulled the drawer open and found that weapon gleaming against the dim light of the bedroom.</span></div><div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">The knife.</span></div><div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">Sadness continued to force the tears into falling from my cold eyes. But I was numb enough not to cry. However, this numbness had no chance of keeping me from realizing what the world had kept me from having. All my ambitions, goals, dreams.... How the world seemed to erase them from existing in my own universe.</span></div><div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">I debated within myself.

Oh, how it gracefully entered my spirit!! How good it felt to have pain as my source of pleasure. Indeed, pain had been the source of pleasure all my life!</span></div><div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">This isn't my act of defeat.

It went on a few more distance from where it started and the flow of vermilion was the flow of freedom.</span></div><div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">Then, I lay on one corner and let the flow of freedom reach reality. It reached the floors of the room. It was welcomed by the room's dim light. It gave birth to me.</span></div><div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">The birth of my immortality.</span></div><div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">I am not defeated.

I felt drowsy. Of pain? Of bliss? I didn't know. It was the strangest feeling of all. The silence added the eeriness of the event.</span></div><div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">I waited.</span></div><div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">The light of the room seemed to fade.

Maybe it proves that Pinoys fancy the idea of love most of the time or maybe it proves how eager we are to continue increasing population rate. But the thing that matter to many of us Pinoys could be love, right?</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">So, I wonder about the daily struggles.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">The reason why I barely favor any Pinoy singers is that most of them are divas and balladeers--not my kind of performers. They don't appeal to me though I must say some of them have incredible voice. Regine Velasquez doesn't awe me. She belts out her voice most of the time that it gets boring. It's like seeing Meryl Streep act damn well in many movies that you are no longer thrilled or surprised (the Meryl Streep syndrome, is that what they call it? Am I right?). Plus, they sing the same stuff over and over: being heartbroken, being inlove, having a hard time in a relationship--their lyrics are bombarded with cliches that any song could contain them. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">music nor the voice. And aside from those, these artists don't become popular for their OWN songs but for covering OTHERS' songs. Wait, are they even popular?</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">There came a time that many singers created albums which contain revivals. It's like making them sing in videokes and recording them--tadaa! Instant albums. Where's the effort in making music?</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Then, we start having recording artists with no singing talent. Who would believe that Willie Revillame's album sold a lot of copies to put him on a top spot? My ass.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">I also find it weird when celebrities have albums made for them. You only hear them speak in their albums. As far as I know, only singers make albums for music. I don't really get the sense of listening to someone saying quotes and words that they just want to express. Let someone sing them or write a book.</span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">Not that I want OPM to become an array of pop music. I just think that we need a little adventure with how we create music. We cannot box ourselves in ballads alone. If that's the case, everyone will sound the same. There's ought to a variation. We need more--MUSIC is larger than plain ol' belting out voices along with the usual minus one tapes. Oh, sorry, were there producers?</span></span></div>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-38731872656681703732011-05-04T14:54:00.001+08:002011-05-04T14:54:47.028+08:00E 55: How To Compose A Pop Song<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Being a pop music junkie, I was able to come up with the main cores of pop song lyrics. I compose pop songs, also, which is why I can already tell how stereotype dance anthems can be. If you want to be a good pop music composer, be reminded of the following core elements:</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">1.

</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">9. You are on the floor.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">10.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">29. Phrasal verbs like "turn on," "let go," "smash up," "blow up," and "turn on."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">30. Don't forget to mention "tonight."</span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-44408867374519608172011-05-03T15:35:00.001+08:002011-05-03T15:35:19.852+08:00E 54: Loosen Up A Bit<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">We live to learn. In life, there are basic rules that we must follow because they are learned by people before us. Mistakes have happened and we don't want to make them again.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">However, life doesn't give us everything. We can't read a complete book where all the things we ought to do are there. This is when experience comes into the scene. We will never really know what's wrong with something unless we experience it first hand.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Another problem comes into view. There are people who are so uptight. They don't want to make mistakes. They want to be perfect, they want to have a good image, and they want to make themselves believe that they are wiser than themselves. But being wise isn't hiding from the dragon; it's facing the dragon. How can one gain adventure if one's to only stare at it and laugh?</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Everyday, we see people that we dislike, people who are different from us, and people whom we think are stupid.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">But sometimes, these people either teach us a lesson--which is NOT to be like them-- or they exist to show us how much we are missing in life. You see, life gets boring without a little adventure. And, adventure here means challenging yourself with something new and having a great time with a problem. You don't go to a posh place, lie down, have a drink, and chill. That's relaxation--not challenging unless you are into financial adventure. You can never be perfect--might as well enjoy the imperfections in life.<br />
That's why I see people whom I dislike, people who look and act stupid for me--but I don't want to judge them. I just laugh at them but in the back of my mind, I know that SOME of them are trying on something new. Life is all about learning, not trying to act learned.</span></span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-46636920849155037952011-05-03T14:58:00.000+08:002011-05-03T14:58:47.204+08:00E 53: A Tiny Reunion<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">College is the make or break starting point of one's career. If there are people who see how you grow in that process, they will be your blockmates.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Saturday, we decided to get a little reunion. It doesn't matter how many people would come--it's the presence that matters. As we sat there at a table, changes are noticed: prettier faces, better personalities, higher positions in their workplaces, bigger bills, and even bigger physiques (that includes me). It is fascinating to see that once, we all were arguing about homework and eating in the cafeteria and now you all discuss better things and eat at a classy restaurant. Some of them changed, some people maintained who they are and what they are known for.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">My blockmates were mostly girls from a school where men are endangered species. Knowing the usual girl groups, there will be raised eyebrows and envy among each other. That is virtually seen in this group. The bond is strong and they don't try to outdo one another rather, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;">just tease each other in a more fun and unoffensive way (well, quite frequently).</span></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">After that dinner, the few ones left decided to hit the bar. So, we went to the nearest, grabbed a drink, and waited for something to happen. The dancefloor waited patiently but as the DJ pumped it harder, we decided that we oughta to light up the space. Lasers flashed, strobe lights danced, bass pounded, treble pierced our ears, bodies collide, hands in the air, sweat dripped, drinks spilled in mouths... It was a blast as we danced till we effin' dropped!</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Afterwards, I had a little talk with the two people I usually end up talking to at nights like those at that same place with the same depths of discussions (though our last topic wasn't something really deep). Then, we called it a night.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">No matter how less communication is, friends remain as friends when you meet them once more. Time surely moves quickly, but it can never take away friendships that are made to stand the test of it.</span></span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-82723843852742825842011-04-30T14:45:00.000+08:002011-04-30T14:45:28.756+08:00E 52: The Cadaver<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Smokes. Clouds of smokes surround a dead body in the middle of ruins. This dead body, once beautiful, seeks justice.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Scars, wounds, broken bones, blood... The body jerks, eyes slowly open, strength caresses its palms as this body rises up from its own grave. It uses its arms to wipe off blood and eventhough it seems impossible to do so due to its wounded arms, this body is able to clean itself well and stand up on its own feet.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">This has happened before. It is easier to regain strength the third time around.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Its skin grows thicker, its eyes grow wider, its claws grow longer, its heart becomes wiser.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Its heart. It's closed again.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">The body's head opens, a blinding array of glowing dusts surrounded it. It lets its head do the walking, talking, and feeling. The heart was a big joke.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">The body trudges the gothic ruins like a vagabond in solitude. Once again, it finds colors hidden in the corners of things in this ruins. These colors are sucked in by the head and it creates a magnificent display on the body.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;">Night and day make no difference as the ruins appear to be an endless time of cloudiness and entrapment. The body finds joy in the colors.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;">But then, another body arrives; A second body, a silhouette that attracts the first body for its presence. The second body arrives with more colors in its pockets and this makes the first body the happiest thing in the ruins.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;">But how can one trust a stranger? The first body knows not. And it does not care. It knows the colors given by the second body could be made up--illusions only made to temporarily feed the hunger of their amusement. The first one is not sure with its musings. Maybe this second one is REAL. The colors seem to glow in their mightiest.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;">Smokes clear the place, lights beam in, sky exhibits blue, and the body takes the colors, prepared once more for any possible tertiary blow, but at the same time, lets itself become vulnerable as its heart slowly breathes back to life... For what is a beggar in a world of uncertainty.</span></span></span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-14566245813217743012011-04-29T21:24:00.001+08:002011-04-29T21:25:26.804+08:00E 51: A Morning With The Threesome<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Hey, good morning. How's your head feeling? Here, have some coffee to get rid of that hang over.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">You remember what happened last night? Yeah, it was sick. Well, if you've been with us for so long, you wouldn't think that my friends and I have a thing with each other. Everything is plain slapstick and way of kidding around.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Okay, yeah, I kissed Taylor, my best friend, but I can swear it was nothing--and will never be something. We don't eat friends. Haha! Yep, even when I laid down on top of Gabby, another close friend--it didn't offend her. She knows me and I know her. That's how CLOSE we are. Not that people have to kiss each other or touch each other's organs to show how comfortable they are with each other. But, this is just what we are in our circle. Actually, I started the whole CRAZINESS thing. When years went past, I became so confident with whatever whenever I'm with my buddies. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">We know that we don't have malice with each other, so we just do so many things that most people can't. Disclaimer: we don't do </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; line-height: 15px;"><em style="font-style: normal;">Ménage à trois</em></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"> nor do we have sex with each other-- that's like the thing we'll NEVER do with each other. You see, amidst all the sane insanity, we still know our boundaries.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">How about if you try be</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">ing like that to us? Nahh, it depends on how close we are to each other already. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Oh, we don't act like that to all of our friends. Usually now, it's Gabby, Taylor, and I. The others have kids already while one will be having her first. I kinda miss them. When we were complete, in the place we call "La Isla Bonita," we were as crazy as hell. We don't do illegal things but we really do so many crazy stuff. So now, it's usually the three of us plus some other friends. I guess that's life.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">I'm sorry?</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Aw, okay. Go to the bathroom, let that barf out.</span></span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2478485028664742826.post-3846442709562494112011-04-28T15:36:00.000+08:002011-04-28T15:36:07.826+08:00E 50: Eyes And Bee<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">In surprising circumstances, we usually experience something new that would either make us feel good or not. There will always be someoen who will suddenly come into your life who can either destroy you, inspire you, or both.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Out of random, you will have the chance to meet someone who will knock you off your feet. But the thing is, you've been hurt a lot of times. This time, you have no guarantee if you will again be the one left shedding tears. So, you hold back. But this someone makes you feel sooooo damn great and offers you all the sugar he or she can provide.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">But still, you build a limitation. You know to yourself that you don't want to create the same mistakes you've done before. You're wiser now.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">But this someone seems REALLY different among those who have come across your special personal space-a space you reserve for someone special. What's even greater is that this person proves you that he or she is worth the trust, even just by little gestures.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">What can you do? You're on cloud 9. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">You can't stop thinking about this someonE. You really absolutely definitely certainly LIKE this someone. You know it's not love yet, but what's more important is that both of you are HAPPY. That alone can already strengthen your connection between each other.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">It's not yet love, but it's something greater than just liking each other. It's a magnificent mystery--a different feeling resting in the middle of two labels of emotions. And it's damn GREAT.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">You take the risk. You prepare to go to the next level. You become ready to let this someone into your life completely. Whatever happens, you want this person to be there for you, EXCLUSIVELY.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Sometimes, we're happy just the way we are with others. That's us. And no matter what others will say, as long as we're not fooling anybody, we'll enjoy each other. Right, Babeh?</span></span>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11924193540098425844noreply@blogger.com0
