Summer in Manila

Summer so far.

1. IT IS FUCKING HOT HERE
2. HAVEN'T BEEN DOING ANYTHING PRODUCTIVE, I FEEL LIKE A LAZY ASS BUM.
3. HAVEN'T BEEN WORKING OUT. (I START IN MAY. I SWEAR!!!)
4. IT'S SO HOT AGAIN!!!
5. I'M FUCKING BORED. IT'S THE SAME THING EVERYDAY. BUM IN THE DAY, BALL AT NIGHT AND BUM AGAIN AFTER. I NEED SOMETHING NEW TO HAPPEN.
6. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO UPCOMING TRIPS WITH D7
7. PEOPLE IN THE NORTH ARE HUGE PUSSYS. THEY'RE TOO DAMN HARD TO COORDINATE WITH. NOBODY REPLIES SO HOW THE HELL CAN I ORGANIZE SOMETHING?!
8. STILL DAMN HOT.
9. AND I'M STILL BORED.
10. AND LASLY IT'S STILL HOT.

I wanna do something productive but i can't. theres absolutely nothing to do. I mean i read. i study french (what the hell is wrong with me) and i play ball. but still at the end of my day i still feel empty. i need something to spice things up! oh God please let it come soon or i won't be enjoying my summer.

Ghost Boat

I read this article in yahoo news (where i learn more from than in school) about a yacht floating off the coast of australia. here,s the thing, the boat was ompletely fucntional/functioning. The computers were all turned on, a laptop was left open and a meal was set out on the table with the food and utensils in place. there was no damage to the boat of whatsoever, no sign of it going through a natural calamity or an accident. in other words, everything was in place. except for one thing, the crew or no one for that matter was on the boat. how freaky is that?! what the hell happened to the people?!

I have three and a half theories as to what happened.

Theory 1. The people were actually deep sea diving and forgot to put the anchor down. so right now they're somewhere in the ocean without a boat. the boat must've floated away or possibly found at the time of the dive and was hauled back to shore leaving the people behind.

Theory 2. They were abducted by aliens.

Theory 3.a All of them fell off at the same time and had no way of getting back onto the boat.

Theory 3b. All of them were pulling a jack and rose scene when a big wave hit the boat and threw ll of them off.

So anyway those are what i came up with. what do you think? comment and give me some of your theories as to what happened. Let's have fun! hahahaha

stop over in japan


were here in japan right now for a hour and a half long stop over. first of all, can i just say, my blogger is in effin japanese! hahahaha oh well i was able to figure my way through it. but its weird!!! no matter what i do everythings in freakin japanese. haha anyway.

i saw pursuit of happyness (to those that don't know, it's purposely spelt with a "y". watch the movie, you'll find out why.) while in the plane. anyway, i always knew this movie was something but i never knew it would move me the way it did. X thousands of feet in the air i find myself moved to tears (okay, maybe just a tear) at the idea of accomplishing the impossible. Chis Gardener is a man that should be recognized around the world, not only will his story inspire people to do the same but it will make our earth a world of wishful dreamers that aspire for nothing less than what they dreamed of. a world where mediocrity doesn't exist. A world with people like that, to me, is full of endless possibilities, they can make anything happen and to have that, i must say, is a world short of perfect.

"It was right then that I started thinkin' about Thomas Jefferson, the Declaration of Independence, and the part about our right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. And I remember thinkin', how did he know, to put the pursuit part in there, that maybe happiness is something we can only pursue, and maybe we could actually never have it, no matter what. How did he know that?"

Having seen that movie, i feel ive been given a new life to go after what makes me happy.
"you're the only one that can say i'm not good enough and even if you tell me i'm not good enough, maybe then i still won't believe you."

Thank you Ginj for your contribution to this. =)

so true

if love wasn't so hard then everyone would be taking a go at it then it wouldn't be special anymore. - Nica

coming home


im a few hours away from leaving for manila. as much as i complained about gaining weight and getting bored here i find a sudden change of heart. i guess it comes with havng to say goodbye. i hate goodbye'. i was never good at them. so to all my relatives ive hung out with spoke to and spent time with in this trip. Goodbye to all of you and see you soon!!!

There was one person in my last trip to the states whom i never got to say goodbye to properly. it's funny because you actually live in manila. even though you'll never read this, i can't help but write about you because coming home reminds me of you.

i know it was my fault why you left. i made you wait for so long, took you for granted and never cared about you the way i should've. i'm not bitter about anything, i know it was my fault. so now i have to pay for that. don't get me wrong, my feelings for you are gone. but, i can't hep but bring along that lingering trail of what we used to be mainly because i never said goodbye to you. you told me, you'd wait. i told you i just needed my time in the states. i did need that time but you never waited. it's fine, you waited so long and that was more than i ever deserved. so thank you for that.

as i lay in bed last night, i only had one thought. call it a stroll down memory lane but i couldn't help but remember that time i woke up at 430 in the morning, dressed up for school, passed by mini stop to buy your favorite breakfast food and wake yaya M up early in the morning only to wait by your bed for you to wake up. (i remember doing this to make up for some shit i did to you. turns out, it's one of the clearer memories of us to me.) your eyes opened and you gave me that smile that you make when you're happy. that big crescent smile you give me whenever i did something for you. i remember telling you i had to leave for school. i kissed your forehead and stood but you pulled me to bed back and asked if you could stay in my arms for a while. i remember saying one thing, "i'm sorry but i'm late. i love you and i'll see you later".

i never saw you again.

now that im thinking clearly about what happened. that morning i saw you was the climax of events between us. you're probably wondering why i never called or texted that day. i do to. but now that we're older and away from that.i see it clearly now. it was one catastrophic event that was all part of our cosmic revelation. that one event summed everything up. you, me, what we had.

so now that im coming home again. i'd like to say goodbye to you. you were nothing but great to me and i failed to see that. i'm sorry.

funny thing is the last time i came home, i thought i was coming home to someone. i was excited for that. turns out that i came home to no one. this time around, it's still the same. only now, i know that i'm coming home to no one.

okay enough drama crap. i said goodbye and thats that! i'll see you when you cross my path again!

New York again



okay, i take back what i said about new york. haha i love it here. it IS cold, but you get used to it after a while. sure, it gets pretty boring here in tappan (peacefull) but manhattan makes up for it. a 15min drive to sweet chaos. manhattan isn't what we usually see in movies (you know, the disorder and crap) it's a little less than what's usually portrayed. infact, i'd consider the place pretty sane. call it a makati if you may. well yeah, it is like a makati but still makati's nothing compared to that. i most especially loved central park. i kinda wish we had one of those in manila. if we did... i'd probably be there almost every day. i don't know. its the idea of a place's unbelievable serenity in the middle of chaos that draws me to it. one minute you see people running, a fast car zooming by or a fire truck zipping and screaming past you and another you're in the middle of a park surrounded by trees and silence in th form of harmonic noise. it's like finding your refuge from the true world. your refuge from the shit that goes on around. now ,THAT is something. IMAGINE having that.

It's one am. im sleepy and tired of playing with my new toy. i think i'll play with it tom again hehe YAY! oh and waterbed's suck. its so damn hard to move around in it. you sink into the sides of the bed... i don't know. maybe im just too heavy. hahah oh well. goodnight world.
