Day 19 — A talent of yours

I don't think I have any special talents. hahahaa

But, I just want to share this things and I hope that this will be considered a talent. :)


--------------------
her life is ruined
sometimes it doesn't make sense
until she found you

--------------------

miss red riding hood
jump on my old sofa bed
come let's play her game

-------------------

The Silent King

He cradled her in his arms
like, a precious gold.
He kissed her forehead
with his gentle lips.
He drove her to school,
carrying her pink lunchbox.
He went to every PTA meeting
Even, join her dance in ballet class.
Until, one day
He learned that its time to let go,
the precious princess
He loved and cared
She went to him
And kiss him in the cheeks
Hug him so tight
and smile her sweet smile.
She never heard him say words of love
Ever since her mom bid goodbye
But, on this special day
He whispered “I love you my princess”


* GOOD NIGHT!

Day 18 — Whatever tickles your fancy



I LOVE BABIES and Little KIDS so much
But I miss this baby the most!
MY niece Reese Zian.

:) I MISS CEBU TOO (:

The Almost Perfect Day

I'm just here thinking of tomorrow.
Hoping that the clock would stop ticking
but I changed my mind
and hope to go back to March again.
Just let me talk. It will not happen anyway.

I'm here in a small room where the lights are on
and all i can hear is the stupid clock's tik tok tik tok

In a little way, I'm at peace because you're just
in the other room with the woman you love the most.

Tomorrow's another chapter.
Where you have to bring some bags and wait for the airplane.

It is also the time when I have to hold on tightly and wait for another year.
I would be the one who could give back the honor of every hardships and sacrifices.

I'll be me. Not perfect. Not the best.
just, me. The little girl whom you love so much. I will make my dreams possible.
I'll make it reality so that one day when I go home, I would see you watching your favorite movies while the love of your life is cooking your favorite food. Then your first born will come home from work and suddenly change the channel then you will soon smile because everyone's home and you could start dinner early.

:) SOMEDAY Papa. Someday

Day 17 — An art piece (painting, drawing, sculpture, etc.)





Pieta
of course by the famous Michaelangelo

This artwork is known by the whole world but it made its huge mark to me when we discussed it in our humanities class. Actually, i've been more interested of artworks because of humanities class. I can say that its one of my favorite classes in College. I'm a loser when it comes to drawings, but atleast I've learned that I can do better in "abstract." haha!

Day 16 — A song that makes you cry (or nearly)

"Maybe its time. time for us to grow. Live by knowing ourselves without anybody's help."
This song makes me "senti" everytime i listen to it. Sad song. :) I can't relate with the song but I know that its very sad. :)

"Time To Grow"

Last night I tried but I couldn't sleep
Thoughts of you were in my head
I was lonely and I needed you next to me
Life is harder since you left
I never meant to do you wrong
And now all is said and done
I hope you won't be gone too long/ No

[Chorus]
Where do I go
What do I do
I can't deny I still feel something
And girl, I wish you could say you feel the same
You've broken the bond
I gotta move on
But how do I end this lonely feeling?
You've gone, I'm here, alone
I guess it's time to grow

I try to speak, but my words never catch the air
Like you never knew I was there
Take me back to the days when you really cared
Can we make love re-appear?
I can't go on the roads too long
And now all is said and done
I can't go forward if my heart's still where i'm coming from

[Chorus]

Crying time is over
I know I can't control her feelings
If she won't return, then I guess I'll be a man
and move on

Time to grow / And move on
Make life better than it was before
Time to grow and move on
Make love better than I did before [repeat]

Though you've gone / And I'm here, alone
I guess it's time to grow

Day 13 — A fictional book


FICTION: THE FIVE PEOPLE YOU MEET IN HEAVEN
by Mitch Albom

I really want to use my own words about this book but I'm soooo sleepy so just read this. from shelfari.com (if you haven't read the book!)


"The Five People You Meet in Heaven" by Mitch Albom begins by introducing Eddie, an 83 year-old maintenance man. His father worked at the Ruby Pier and Eddie followed in suit. It was all that he ever knew, and everyday of his existence was filled with making sure that the rides at the amusement park ran smoothly. Eddie could even hear when something was wrong with a ride and that's why he knew exactly what happened on the fateful day when he lost his life. As a sacrifice, Eddie ran in under a falling ride to save a little girl's life. He felt tiny arms pulling him, later he would learn that those arms were pulling him to Heaven.
Eddie arrives at Heaven only to learn that it not a paradise, but a place where his life is explained by five people that were somehow connected to him while he was on earth. This shocks him, especially when he meets the Blue Man. The Blue Man was a circus freak at the Ruby Pier that was accidently killed by Eddie when he darted out in front of his car. This circus freak taught Eddie that everyone in the world is connected somehow. Next, Eddie meets the Captain, his commanding officer in World War II. The Captain shocked Eddie by revealing that he had died in order to save him. Along with sharing his story, the captain revealed how sacrifice and choices can define a life. The third person Eddie met was Ruby, the co-founder of the Ruby Pier. Ruby tells Eddie that anger is useless and this allows Eddie to be able to mend his realationship with his father. After this encounter Eddie met the person he had been waiting for, his wife, Marguerite. She was the only person Eddie truly cared for and of course, she taught him about ever-lasting love. The last and perhaps most important person he met was Tala. She was a young Filipino girl who was accidentally, and unfortunatley burned in the fire that Eddie set as revenge against his enemies in the war. Eddie had never known her, but had dreamt about her every night since. At last, she revealed that Eddie's life did have a purpose and that it was protecting children everyday at the Ruby Pier.
In the end, Eddie walks through the Ruby Pier to find his wife and, his Heaven. The best thing about his Heaven is that he can go to rest knowing that his life had meaning and that everything makes sense. It's certainly not what he expected, but it was certainly what he needed. Mr. Albom leaves us with the knowledge that Eddie is a part of a Heaven for the little girl that he saved at the Ruby Pier. The cycle will continue and everyone in Heaven will have the chance of learning the true meaning of their life."

Day 06 — Whatever tickles your fancy

I'm a fan. One of my "idols" in the media industry.
I fancy her because she's so cool and fashionable. She is also kind-hearted and smart. (I always read her blog! )

I admire her because she always try to connect with people, with her fans. As I read in wikipedia, "Her first job in ABS-CBN was with production, where she was a brainstormer for theCreative Development Group." LOOK AT HER NOW! Super host na! :)

Well, here are some of saved photos of Ms. Bianca Gonzalez! :)



Bianca cutting the Yahoo! Cake :)

Day 5: Favorite Quote


Love is not love until it hurts :)

-from a priest

I'm a quote person but this is the only quote that I think I could share without being redundant.

I always post quotes in twitter, fb stat, multi, etc etc. That's why I can't think of what will be my best one.

The quote above may not be my uber fave! but, it has deep meaning for me.

Maybe, in the future if ever i'll encounter deep pain.. I hope I could relate it to love.
I like the quote but I want to believe more in its meaning. :)


Ok? sleepy head, Goodnight!

Sunday, April 4, 2010

Ngayong malaki ka na

Simula pagkabata, itinuro na siya sa'yo.
Ipinakilala upang magsilbing iyong gabay sa iyong paglaki.
Andyan sa tuwing pasan mo ang lahat ng bigat ng mundo.
Walang araw na hindi mo siya tinawag upang hingan ng tulong.

Ngayong malaki ka na.
Mas alam ang bawat bagay. Hindi na kailangang ituro pa.
Lahat ay hinahanapan mo ng sagot.
Lahat ay binibigyan mo ng dahilan.

Pati Siya na naging gabay mo.
Tinalikuran mo at Pinabayaan.
Dahil lamang sa mga Teoryang hindi mapatunayan.
Maaaring totoo o maaaring kathang isip lang.

Sana sa paghahanap mo ng kasagutan
Hindi ka mawala sa landas.
Hinihintay ka lamang niya,
Nalimutan mo lang ang itinuro sayo nung bata ka.

Kapag gabi, bago matulog.
Kausapin mo siya, lahat sabihin mo.
Wala mang salita, Hindi man sumagot.
SIguradong naririnig ka Niya.

Paano ba yan?
Hinihintay na niya ang pagbalik ng batang paborito niyang kausapin bago matulog.
Patatagalin mo pa ba?:)

Day 4: Favorite Book/s


I'm staring on a blank screen for an hour thinking if I would share all my favorite books or just pick my top 5. But, I decided to share 3!

So first on my list:

Five People you meet in heaven
by (my fave!) MITCH ALBOM

I always say that this book never fails to make me cry. Though I have read it a thousand times, I still cry and feel the words of Mitch Albom or lets say the words spoken by the characters. I will always love the Blue Man and Tala. :) And also the captain. Compared to Tuesday's with Morrie, I love Five People.. more. I just hope someday, I can be like Mitch --someone who can inspire a lot of people.

"Strangers are family you have yet to come to know." -Blue Man

“No life is a waste,” “The only time we waste is the time we spend thinking we are alone.”


Second on the list:

Dear John by Nicholas Sparks

A soldier, a regular college girl, they fell in love. In their hearts they knew its true and eternal but life sucks. Fate is playful. A drama of father/son that made me cry while I was reading it on the bus.

It touched my heart, very much. I talked about it 24/7 to my friends for two months. hahaha!

Just don't compare it to the movie. Jeez. Its different. Though, I can imagine Channing Tatum as John Tyree (lalalallalalalalalla) :)


Vince's Life 1 &2 :)

by: Vince O. Teves

Published by Summit Media

I like the 3rd book but, not as much as the first two. :(

I have posted blogs about this. hahaha!

It started from a witty and cool gang Vince, Spider, Connie and Andrea to

"i will wait until there's nothing left to wait for" and ends up with

I won’t be stuck in the past, holding on to our yesterday, waiting for something that won’t ever come back.

Actually it has a simple plot and everything but when I read it, it feels like I am reading a blog of a guy next door. Something a girl always wishes for. Some guy who knows the real meaning of love, he doesn't need to be prince charming, just him. Real, cute and funny. :)


So that's it.

Day 3: Favorite TV Program

So obvious! :)
I have posts about GG all the time. No explanations. I just love it! SO mUCH.

Friday, April 2, 2010

Day 2: Favorite Movie/s

Haha. I kinda changed the title because I really have many favorite movies. So here are some of them. :)

JOHN Q
I guess like me you were touched when he said "I will not bury my son, my son will bury me."
Denzel Washington is one of the best actors that I really admire.
I have a thing for Dad/son movies and also dad/daughter. :)

I AM SAM"A mentally retarded man fights for custody of his 7-year-old daughter, and in the process teaches his cold-hearted lawyer the value of love and family."
A simple and unique story that will forever stay in my heart. :)
with the tagline: love is all you need


ONE MORE CHANCE

:)




of course, a walk to remember :0

Day 1: Favorite Song

Fey-vo-rit song. OMG! this is hard! I have many :(

Well, Maybe I would just post the one that always have a big impact when i hear it.

I can't post the audio here so i'll just paste the Lyrics :)



"Bless The Broken Road"

I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you

[Chorus:]
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like Northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

I think about the years I spent just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true

[Chorus]

Now I'm just rolling home
Into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you.


It's a song that reminds me that someone along the way, will sing to me this beautiful lyrics. And in his prayer he will thank God that He led me straight to him. :) cheesy.
