current mood: *adik* current music: goodbye, goodniight 1. I’m sick. That’s it. No more, no less. And the problem is I don’t even know why I’m sick. Sheesh! Labo and I am not even making any sense here… 2. I need ice cream. big time! 3. Hmmm… I usually keep everything to myself (i.e sentiments, problems and even EMO-matters). Sa totoo lng, I envy those who can easily and comfortably express their sentiments and problems. 4. I was (and probably still) a crybaby. People wouldn’t really understand back then. I mean… it was more than those little things and I just had it all to myself. 5. I had this little *tampo*. I felt like I was being forgotten and stupidly thought na reaching out would really be useless. Pero tapos na… 6. I’m just tired. Law school can really be emotionally draining but I’m not that fainthearted. 7. “This too shall pass”
Current mood: slack Current music: big girls don't cry *** What he did wasn't really an odd thing. It was perfectly normal especially on days like this (read: midterms=nervous tension) but I could have at least decently smiled back at him. Sheesh… Yeah, I think I smiled back at him or at least I tried to. *hahahaha* *** Current faves: cannonball (Damien rice) and Angels and Devils (Dishwalla) *** "Proud to be a Kapuso." I've been hearing this phrase for the last few days and crap pa rin ang dating as ever. When will ABS and GMA stop from showing sentimental propaganda regarding truth and veracity? I'm getting tired of their nonsense and cyclical competition and so is everyone else. *Uunlad ba ang mga tao at may mahahanap bang pagkain pag dineklara nilang kapuso or kapamilya sila?* *** CLoverfield I watched the movie with jem, mau, cesar and jon. Hmmm… I had this clueless expression after watching it but we all had a good laugh kahit na di naman comedy ung movie. Note: If you're that type of person who would go for a sensible-metaphorical movie then cloverfield is a big no-no kasi isa syang movie na talagang what you see is what you get. ***
Note/ disclaimer: I'm definitely way past the age of drooling over candy's cuties. Just think of this post as a product made out of sheer boredom and contemplation. *oh c'mon…. Hahaha* Kind of shallow I guess… but what the heck?! *and just so you know, the numbers are just really numbers and do not in any way rank these cuties* "Eye Candies" would probably be the better title for this post. Ladies, feast your eyes on but don't forget to slip back to reality. 1. Marat Safin He's one tennis player who definitely heats up the court. His power smashes and strong serves just prove that he's more than just a male anna kournikova. Yes, he can be highly volatile (note: ill-tempered) during his games with his signature racket-smashing-tricks but his smooth moves and power shots will just make you adore him more. *hahahaha* And If I do chanced up on being his opponent, I'll definitely concede to this heartthrob and warmly accept my 40-LOVE (tennis term for zero) score. 2. Patrick Dempsey A good reason to stay glued to Grey's. From being the I-have-nothing-to ask for-boyfriend in Sweet Home Alabama, this guy can dazzled up any girl by being Seattle's hunk doctor or Disney's enchanting prince ("I've been dreaming of a true love's kiss. And a prince I'm hoping comes with this. That's what brings everaftering so happy. And that's the reason we need lips so much). MCDREAMY he really is, right ava? 3. George Clooney Everyone would probably agree that he's one of the eligible bachelors in town (okay, the description is probably a bit underrated). From being a doctor in the celebrated drama ER, this A-list star is more than just an actor, he's a screenwriter, producer, and director. Whoa! 4. Harrison Ford This guy gets more charming as he gets older. He's an embodiment that having a "grey-white hair "is a winning formula in achieving a sexier status. If only I could be princess leia for just a day. *may the force be with me* 5. Hugh Jackman He can be the sexiest mutant alive (wolverine), the church's left hand (van helsing), the world's greatest magician (Angier in The Prestige), or he can just be Hugh Jackman, plain and simple. A pretty face, a well toned body and a million dollar smile. 6. Mark Wahlberg If there's a toss up between Mark Wahlberg and Matt Damon, I'd probably choose Marky Mark the rapper/Calvin Klien model/ actor over 2007 People's Magazine's sexiest man alive/Jason Bourne. 7 Michael Vartan Drew Barrymore's oh so lovable professor in Never Been Kissed and Sydney's partner/CIA agent in Alias. He just reminds you of a little boy. *sigh* 8. Kim Jeong Hoon I can't definitely get enough of koreanovelas or it's probably because of his character in Princess Hours that makes him really appealing. annyong hashimnigga! 9. Keanu Reeves I had a big crush on him after watching Bramstroker's Dracula (read: this was way way back matrix). *hahaha* I can't help but adore his pale and flawless skin. 10. Ethan Hawke It's definitely the eyes... man!
Current mood: edgy Current music: stolen § I woke up at around 8 am which was about an hour late from my usual wake up time. § And just like every other day, I instantly activated my virtual to-d0-list, more of my study plan for the whole day which was like this: *oblicon -> crim2 -> legal technique aka logic -> and theology pa nga pla (how the hell would I study for theo? uhmmm…)… lunch (or my semi-lunch-more of a merienda) would probably be somewhere in between* § I went to chocokiss ( which was like a slight diversion from my Makati route) since I had to buy a cake (di whole pero enough slices) for our sort of “surprise” for Mau. § Around 11 am, nasa Rockwell na ako..

Poverty almost certainly had become the face of our country. And all the extra-judicial killings might prove how injustice prevails. Though there’s now a thin line between liberty and oppression, we still have to remain faithful to the institutions that we have tried to protect over the years. We can’t just run amok every time we get disappointed with our government. What would democracy be then? There’s a proper time for everything, even for a revolution. Change is not as easy as it is and Rome was not built in just a flick of a wand. We have to remain faithful to our foundations.

"The fantasy is simple. Pleasure is good. And twice as much pleasure is better. That pain is bad. And no pain is better. But the reality is different. The reality is that pain is there to tell us something. And there is only so much pleasure we can take without getting a stomachache. And maybe that's okay. Maybe some fantasies are only supposed to live in our dreams. " "How do you know when how much is too much? Too much too soon. Too much information. Too much fun. Too much love. Too much to ask... And when is it all just too much to bear?" "Denial. It's not just a river in Egypt. It's a freakin' ocean." "Pain, you just have to ride it out, hope it goes away on its own, hope the wound that caused it heals. There are no solutions, no easy answers, you just breath deep and wait for it to subside. Most of the time pain can be managed but sometimes the pain gets you where you least expect it. Hits way below the belt and doesn't let up. Pain, you just have to fight through, because the truth is you can't outrun it and life always makes more." "To be a good surgeon, you have to think like a surgeon. Emotions are messy. Tuck them neatly away and step into a clean, sterile room where the procedure is simple. Cut, suture, close. But sometimes you're faced to a cut that won't heal. A cut that rips its stitches wide open. " "Sometimes reality has a way of sneaking up and biting us in the ass. And when the dam bursts, all you can do is swim. The world of pretend is a cage, not a cocoon. We can only lie to ourselves for so long. We are tired, we are scared, denying it doesn't change the truth. Sooner or later we have to put aside our denial and face the world. Head on, guns blazing. De Nile. It's not just a river in Egypt, it's a freakin' ocean. So how do you keep from drowning in it?"
"There's something to be said about a glass half full. About knowing when to say when. I think it's a floating line. A barometer of need and desire. It's entirely up to the individual. And depends on what's being poured. Sometimes all we want is a taste. Other times there's no such thing as enough, the glass is bottomless. And all we want, is more."
Current mood: relaxed Current music: growls and barks courtesy of our dogs *wow* He's cute. Really. And luckily, his room is like ten steps away from ours (for more in between breaks-*grin*). Somewhat shallow, I guess, but just enough to have that little *kilig* everyday. *** "Ito ang teleserye ng totoong buhay." A one-liner that's evidently full of crap and shit. Obviously the pre-eminence of a new pop culture has instigated the birth of a new breed of television shows in our country. Yes, scripts, and long mapped-out lines are curtailed for reality projects which are considered to be more personal, natural, and true-to-life. Among this so called real life shows is ABS-CBN's version of Big Brother which recently ended its second season. A big teleserye. A simulation of reality filled with excessive plots and features. So how real really is the show? Just think of teleseryes. Living in a house ruled by an all-powerful voice is the big plot. The evictees are the villains, the ones who never get enough sympathy and empathy from the viewers. The big winner is the protagonist, the one who gets all the sympathy. And as for the big happy ending, just think of fame and all the prizes that the big winner gets to take after the show. So much for a grand dramatic production. *** I slept for almost ten hours which is like an odd thing na for me. Consti break! And surprisingly may time ako to write something (for more ranting and blabbing talaga). Pero sa totoo lang, sa one month ko sa law school, I've learned na there's no room for ranting and procrastinating pag dating sa mga cases and readings. Isipin mo na lang ung time na masasayang, you could have read two cases na kesa mag-rant at magreklamo. *** "While humanity shares one planet, it is a planet on which there are two worlds, the world of the rich and the world of the poor." I'm a very emotional person and I always get that sense of sympathy and pity whenever I do watch the news or see something in the streets. I easily get affected whenever there are instances na may lolo or may batang nalilimos. Naiispip ko kasi, dapat si lolo with his old age ay nagpapahinga na at nagre-relax sa bahay or ung bata naman dapat nasa school at natututo magbasa. And yes, the world is probably uncontrollable, but we can do little things that can ease up all the suffering. There's always a room for servitude at siguro balang araw I can do something kahit super liit- ung tipong masasabi kong I've done something meaningful for others. Idealistic ata pero attainable nman (eto ay manifestation na kahit papano ay may superman complex rin ako tulad ng iba). I'll be a hypocrite pag sinabi kong I didn't go to law school for the lucrative aspect of the legal profession, pero sa totoo lang I'm also considering the human rights aspect of it. Isipin mo na lang, our country boasts of democracy and rule of law pero sa panahon ngayon ung mga indigenous cultural communities natin ay nakaka-experience pa rin ng discrimination gaya ng sa probinsya raw pag sumasakay sila ng jeep, hindi sila pwede sa loob kaya sa bubong sila sumasakay. Just imagine kung gaano ka-delikado ung ganoon for kids and women.
current mood: nostalgic curent music: ewan *** i want to leave everything behind and just start a new life. ewan. burnout probably. i want to do a lot of things, pagod lang tlga siguro from the city life. hahahaha *** So much to do, so much to change... and yet can do so little about everthing. Hopeless? Nah.. Evertbody's just minding his/ her own business. Labo.. *** I celebrated my birthday last week. Ok naman. hehe Yey! I'm one year older pero wala pa rin ako masyado kwenta... hahaha Kidding aside... feel ko sobrang ok ako... I can really say that I'm really happy... ung tipong masaya ako not because of other people.. basta masaya ako... hehehe Adik! *** But there are still those moments na I just wantv to stay in my room and cry... torture? Hay.. maybe I like pain.. ewan... Alam ko na masaya ung taong un so dapat magmove on di ba... hahahaha *** Lyrics galore ulit idlip by Imago "Neither away nor asleep Collide bu Howie Day "Even the best fall down sometimes ***
Dwell somewhere in between
Neither someone or something
Be it life alone
I walk it like a park
Half real, half fancy "
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
I somehow find, you and I collide"
current mood: relaxed current music: nobela *** Tama na kakornihan. Wag masyado papansin. Sheesssh... *** Nakakatuwa panoorin si RJ and Yeng. La lang. Lakas ng trip ng dalawa. Hahaha *** isa sa fave kong christmas song... hay.. Grown-up Christmas List Do you remember me
I sat upon your knee
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies
Well I'm all grown-up now
And still need help somehow
I'm not a child
But my heart still can dream
So here's my lifelong wish
My grown-up Christmas list
Not for myself
But for a world in need
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
Everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown-up Christmas list
As children we believed
The grandest sight to see
Was something lovely
Wrapped beneath our tree
Well heaven surely knows
That packages and bows
Can never heal
A hurting human soul
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth
