i'll bid goodbye to 2010 with a silly grin on my face
2010 made families deceived me, friends leave me and drama took over me. It was a train wreck.
So i'll bid goodbye to everything that had hurt me and just hope for a better one.
I've looked back this one time and tried to forget everything.
I forgive those who have hurt me, let go of the people who deceived me, forget of the pain and the troubles. It's time to move on.
And without all the shit, i wouldn't be here and what doesnt kill me makes me stronger.
hello 2011, game on!

I Love you loves, and you know I will always be here for you. I can say millions of reasons why you and I are friend, another million on why I love you, and another million why we are inseparable.
I'm happy that you have been able to find someone who also makes you happy.

on this day i'll leave it all up to a silly palm reading from the past
Or did I say this just because. or have i said this too many times before?
I read a couple of things from my scrapbook last night and I stood there stunned from a little prediction I got from a palm reading. "You'll fall madly in love and you will fight like there's no end" And i did, until now i'm still in a battle to fight. Everyone knows how I feel with this person, no question to that. I defined love by his name, life by his name. And I have forgotten how to live and love by myself. It doesn't really matter, I am happy and no doubt to that.
Maybe there were lies, but I have never lied on how I feel. I cried when I felt like it, I laughed when I needed to burst it, I smiled when i felt sweet, I loved.always.
So cheers to everything, for not losing hope, for not giving up and for every battle we have won.
I wanted to raise you up, your belief and love. Everything is surreal and we wouldn't stop.
I never wished for someone like you, but when i opened a gift that fell from above. I got you, not knowing why or how. But I was glad, it was you. my special gift. And i won't ever throw you away.
You are like the light in every sidewalk, You give a little direction when everything goes astray.
When everyone left you behind, i'll stay by your side. When everyone alienated you, I will still be here. Just like before.
We needed some time to rest, time to sit down and talk. And everything went into a flashback. You and me on that lonesome road.
Now,again, lets make it happen. Fall to each others arms and free fall some more.

I can’t fall every time
Every day, I fall in and out
Rain falls down my window, and there are so many things that make me as human as I am
Coz we are vulnerable to pain, we tend to feel each twitch, each gasp, and each pinch
Nothing else in the world will be enough to shield us from all the pain.
When you make a mistake, I didn’t mind
That was the right thing to do, to build walls around my heart
Stopping each arrow you tried to launch
You are my forever but we can’t be like this together
Fall and fall, no end
Fall and fall, no stop
Fall and fall, to nowhere, to out there
On the middle of the streets I lay, no heart, no dreams
I kept something inside of me, strength that will forever be
Could you stop for a while, I will just catch my breathe
Or even I have forgotten what that is
Could we take a shortcut home, skip the pain and drama
Or even go fast track to all the stops.
I can’t tell how much I have felt
Only pain that I have dealt
Oh could we go halfway
And travel again on the second hay
I cannot feel nor walk nor play
Let’s just stay together although out our day
How to be an artist, a repost from 101 bird tales

Clean slates and then I walk away.
what blair told serena:
Blair: I love it how it has never occurred to you that someone might not want to see you every single day.
Serena: Someone, sure. Probably lots of people. But not my best friend.
plus, needing to success without your best friend.
-thats bull (of course), selfish and uncanny.
need I say more?
And to this extent, I would gladly walk away.
Don't look back or see who's got your back, coz you won't see anyone anymore.
When you look at those times when no ones there, I did not hesitate to be a friend.
Clean slates and then I walk away.
Coz growing is not stepping, but flying.

LANVIN ♥ H&M
"H&M [is] going luxury rather than Lanvin is going public."
Lanvin's collection for H&M will be unveiled late October and will drop on 200 H&M stores on November 23 worldwide.
Lanvin and H&M will be tying up this season to launch their womenswear and menswear.
“H&M approached us to collaborate, and see if we could translate the dream we created at Lanvin to a wider audience, not just a dress for less. I have said in the past that I would never do a mass-market collection, but what intrigued me was the idea of H&M going luxury rather than Lanvin going public. This has been an exceptional exercise, where two companies at opposite poles can work together because we share the same philosophy of bringing joy and beauty to men and women around the world.” Alber Elbaz, artistic director of Lanvin.
Since joining Lanvin as artistic director in 2001, Alber Elbaz has transformed the Paris-based label into a fashion powerhouse. Elbaz has pioneered some of the biggest trends of the past decade, such as ribbons, pearls and metallic embellishment just to name a few.
Elbaz has a mastery for cut and an instinct for cloth that gives a very personal signature on his work that makes all Lanvin clothes recognizable.
H&M has partnered with Karl Lagerfeld, Comme des Garçons, Sonia Rykiel and Stella McCartney.
There will be a sneak peek of the collection on November 1 through an online film posted on hm.com.
"This has been an exceptional exercise, where two companies at opposite poles can work together because we share the same philosophy of bringing joy and beauty to men and women around the world," Elbaz said in a statement.

hello, happy day.
"I wanted him to be sorry for what he did and spend the
rest of his life trying to make up for it."Maybe its too much to ask, but being left broken was the worse thing I have ever been through,with not much guilt on the side.Hello, If you remember. Its the 11th today. happy. and we spent it by fighting and blaming.May I have my brain back? Coz you always told me to understand, and I always did. But you never saw it.There are no words now, just sorry.Sorry.I have forgotten how to take away all the anger in my heart. Forgotten how not to care. Forgotten how to live my life. And most of all, I have forgotten who we are.We grew apart.Not even knowing that we already walked different paths, different bumps on the side. Different road that may not ever cross again.You gave me a reason.I was thinking it over, why am I still here? And if you have asked me a few months or years ago. I may have given you millions of answers to that.. and now I cant even find a single reason why I am here and why I am staying.And..Now you gave me nothing but an empty heart, broken memory and brain trauma.

The business
OVER A CUP OF CARAMEL FRAPPE CREAM BASED
plus Cinnamon swirl.
I was supposed to go to school for an interview to help a friend, we met at starbucks columns. It was justa walk away from school.
The first set of questions were about Blogging and the other is about the networks election coverage.
I was interviewed before, but this one is cool. I said things that I couldn't think of. I wondered why I blogged, I am blogging for about 8 or 7 years now. Started out with podcasting and then verged on to blogging.
Is there anything to tell this kids for them to be inspired?
Coz I almost gave up on writing, I'm just another silly antic, Another writer-wannabe, Another artist wanting to be published.. someday.
What did I said to that interview?
Blogging is just an instrument to inspire aspiring
writers,Gives writers a spark of hope that someday they will be
published.

I have hovered into nothingness
I went to bed as the sun shone over the city, covered my face with a pillow to be bounded by darkness. After a few minutes I fell asleep, as if it was night time.
Darkness fell upon the the sky and there were streaks of light falling down on different paths. I thought of who might saw those falling stars and whose wishes would be granted. I didn't made a wish, but my heart did.
I held on tight to a dream I have ever since I was a child, writing and painting dreams. I have colored my life with blacks, grays and whites, with splashes of colors here and there.
I stood there in front of my easel with a brush in my hands and a palette on the other. It;s been a few years, I have hovered into nothingness. Pretended not to care or to exist.
I picked up my brush dabbed reds into my painting, a bit of yellows and greens. I have created a monster, because that is who I became. Labeled by my own standards, owned by selfish thoughts.
I will paint a wall.
I painted a world that didn't exist.
Curved buildings, flying humans, multi-colored skies, yellow waters, humanoids even. - a wild sky dream.
It was surreal.
what is surreal? surrealism? - simultaneous dream-memory of everything.
I screamed and shouted for cold water, I was in the inner most part of the furthest province. I threw the plastic glass of water to my grand father. I demanded for cold water or even Ice. He has to go through all the barrios to the city. He then came back with a big block of ice and mineral water. He came back after 4 hours. Yes, we were that far from the city.
My mom decided to banish me to the province, cause I have been such a pain in the a** at home.
My grandpa wasn't allowed to smoke, he has this lung problem. I was roaming around the yard when I saw a pack of cigarettes on a branch of a tree. Clever. My grandpa hid it there so no one could see, but I was too sneaky to not notice.
Then the next thing I knew was that I was smoking that pack of cigarette with my granny. Conversations about life and on what a brat I am. He then remembered being the same when he was a child. He didn't puff cigarettes but smoking pipes with the Spanish soldiers. My grandpa is Spanish. He was also a problem to the family so he was sent to the provinces.
You will share this someday, with the world. You will be great, unlike me.
But he was my inspiration. He wrote things I had never thought of. But he left the earth with an unlikely mark; of not wanting to live but leaving the world with a mystery of how he lived.
I have completed my day, I covered my short body with my blanket, puffed my head on to the pillow, turned off the lights and opened my mind to new dreams to write about.

im sorry for my unPoetic ways
are nothing but a memory.
In the deepest depths of my mind,
there he lay.
Like midnight dreams that lingered,
He was a thought away.
Like a sail boat,
He drifted away.
On a broad daylight,
He was my coffee.
On a deep midnight,
He was my blanket.
I can go on and on,
On how much he meant to me.
But he is just a star,
In the middle of a sky.
We will not make it through,
Coz theres nothing to save.
We will not fly,
Coz theres no reason to get high.
Every memory will be worth keeping,
But every thought leaves my heart bleeding.
Every word is music to my ears,
But every strumm makes my eyes tear.
Your hands secures my way,
Your hug covers my fears,
Your kiss wakes my nightmares,
Your heart makes mine beat.
The gift of memory,
They make me thankful.
The gift of memory,
Made me learn.
Step one and two,
who am I to you?
No next step,
it's leaving me hanging.s
a lousy dream.
I wanted to believe the best in you but as I patch everything I'm starting to lose hope and belief in whatever we have or had.
Now it was just a sigh away, a lousy dream and even a mistake that I will never regret. Funny, its a mistake but I will never regret it.
My hands are trembling as I write this stupid blog, my eyes are tearing up: and there goes my thought that I was strong. But I have removed my shield and opened my heart.
I am not hiding anything, Is it my fault that I am trying to look for a right timing to tell you that I love you?

I am no superwoman nor darna.
I am the mind in the tactics,
The head in the games,
The poet in a middle of a war,
The thought in problem.
I am no superwoman nor darna.
I'm just a writer.
moreover,
coz we were not supposed to be confused on things that we really want.
I took up Mass Communications because it is something I really want ever since. There were down times when I caught myself saying, "What have I gotten myself into?" Over and Over again I have told myself I am not a quitter, but my body is giving up. Tired of all the crap and all the people she has to face everyday.

we're young and free, why ruin it?
im afraid im a cliff diver
and seeing you makes me think twice
I'm sorry but I just need to post this, it seem appropriate.
well as complicated as this might sound, we still have a choice and somewhat a decision to make.
As Lovers Go by Dashboard Confessional
She said, "I've gotta be honest
You're wasting your time if you're fishing round here"
And I said, "You must be mistaken
Cause I'm not fooling, this feeling is real"
She said, "You gotta be crazy
What do you take me for, some kind of easy mark?"
"No, you've got wits, you've got looks
You've got passion, but I swear that you've got me all wrong"
All wrong
All wrong
But you got me
I'll be true, I'll be useful
I'll be cavalier, I'll be yours, my dear
And I'll belong to you
If you'll just let me through
This is easy, as lovers go
So don't complicate it by hesitating
And this is wonderful, as loving goes
This is tailor-made, what's the sense in waiting
And I said, "I've gotta be honest
I've been waiting for you all my life
For so long I thought I was asylum-bound
But just seeing you makes me think twice
And being with you here makes me sane
I fear I'll go crazy if you leave my side
You've got wits, you've got looks
You've got passion
But are you brave enough to leave with me tonight"
Tonight
Tonight
But you've got me
I'll be true, I'll be useful
I'll be cavalier, I'll be yours, my dear
And I'll belong to you
If you'll just let me through
This is easy, as lovers go
So don't complicate it by hesitating
And this is wonderful, as loving goes
This is tailor-made, what's the sense in waiting
This is easy, as lovers go
So don't complicate it by hesitating
And this is wonderful, as loving goes
This is tailor-made, what's the sense in waiting
This is easy, as lovers go
So don't complicate it by hesitating
And this is wonderful, as loving goes
This is tailor-made, what's the sense in waiting

here we go.
wait, i take it back. I am not sorry, I just have to think it over again. then I'll say sorry.
Maybe here I can say anything and even everything.
I don't know where to start.
here we go.
I'm sorry for barging into your life like this, I know I'm a spoiled bratt and I told you I get everything I want. And yes, I got you. But is was more complicated than I thought. I will not be holding your hand, I will not be having your lips next to mine, I will not be wrapped in your arms, I will not be next to you walking through this crazy days if I didn't want to. So ask me again, and I will answer honestly.
sorry for ignoring everything you said, but it wasn't necessary. I knew how you felt, that's why it got me scared. Coz the both of us are falling to somewhere we didn't plan to.
I will throw all my fears away and free fall with you to wherever.
I know it is not that easy now, but We'll figure it out.

It was another FAIL story
A Few years back I asked myself that. And at this very moment I still couldnt answer.
So Whats the point of all this?
Friday, July 2, 2010
I'll sky rocket to where you are
friends, for letting you down. It wasn't my intention, You guys know how hard I tried. But you guys know how I tried to fight, but there will always come a time when we just cant fight anymore. Not because we grew tired in fighting but because there is none to fight for.
There are some things that I have learned during everything that had happened, I am just learning how to make myself happy and make myself the priority this time. I may sound selfish but I had enough of making other people happy and leaving myself feel worthless and empty.
At this very moment, I am happy in where I am. Happy on who I became. Happy on everything. The pieces of my life is falling into place.
'The moment may only last a few seconds... but the memories of it will last a lifetime. ' Somehow I don't care if its only a moment. I'm back being a person who doesn't care about tomorrow or the next day, I just care about now. Because whatever happens today is the thing that will shape what happens.
Shit happens. Deal with it.
Yes they do, and every time I try to contemplate about how everything in my life became this way it makes me sad because I know I did everything I can and yet there are still many things that I should have done.
I miss you and sometimes I just want to sky rocket to where you are. Like before, I wanted to feel your hug and forget the world. It makes me feel everything will be okay, not in that very moment but someday. Now, every time I see you, it just breaks my heart. Breaks my heart, for limiting what I can do. For building walls around me. For letting everything fall apart.
On this part I will blame you.
I told you I will not fight for this anymore, yet you let everything fall apart. That will be the only thing I can blame you with. I got out of this mess with no less than myself and yet you looked at me and didn't say a word. You chose to walk away, and i did too. We took different paths.
Now I am gaining myself again.
Dont try to make me feel guilty of being happy, thats the best thing I can do for myself now. And all I can tell you is..
