from jay d.

God created turtles to remind me to slow down,
ants to remind me about little things and
the sky to remind me to look up and pray;
he created you to remind how goodlife can be...

from cher trono

hold on
but know when to let go

wait
but know if there really someone to wait for

dream
but know when to wake up

if he doesnt love you,
go, move on, its ok to fall
but know when to get up.

Sorry For The Stupid Things

Sometimes we wish for the better
When we have it good as it gets
Sometimes the grass isn't greener
Sometimes we find out we forget
Sometimes the fool doesn't know he's a fool
Sometimes a dog he don't know he's a dog
Sometimes I do stupid things to you
When I really don't mean it all

Sometimes a man
Just don't be a man
It's not an excuse
It's just how it is
Sometimes the wrong
Don't know that they're wrong
Sometimes the strong
Ain't always so strong
Sometimes a girl
Is gon' be a girl
She don't wanna deal with all the drama in your world
God knows I don't mean to give it to you
So girl I'm sorry for the stupid things I wish I didn't do but I do
Oh so sorry, oh no, oh so sorry

Sometimes I wish I was smarter
Wish I was a bit more like you
Not making stupid decisions made at the last minute
You live to regret when it's through

Well, sometimes the fool doesn't know he's a fool
And sometimes a dog he don't know he's a dog
Sometimes I do stupid things to you
When I really didn't mean it all

Sometimes a man
Just don't be a man
It's not an excuse
It's just how it is
Sometimes the wrong
Don't know that they're wrong
Sometimes the strong
Can't always be strong
Sometimes a girl
Is gon' be a girl
She don't wanna deal with all the drama in your world
God knows I don't mean to give it to you
So girl I'm sorry for the stupid things I wish I didn't do but I do

Sometimes the fool doesn't know he's a fool
Sometimes a dog he don't know he's a dog
Sometimes I do stupid things to you
When I really didn't mean it at all, at all

Sometimes a man
Just don't be a man
It's not an excuse
It's just how it is
Sometimes the wrong
Don't know that they're wrong
Sometimes the strong
Ain't always so strong
Sometimes a girl
Is gon' be a girl
She don't wanna deal with all the drama in your world
God knows I don't mean to give it to you
So girl I'm sorry for the stupid things I wish I didn't do but I do

karen's hilarious story

karen and her boss are texting just this morning and this is what they talked about:

karen: Sir, malelate lang po ako ng konti, dito po ako sa pasong tamo extension,
may aasikasuhin lang po. thanks.
(but the truth is im really late and i was suppose to text him that im in manila memorial office.)

sir: Ok, ako din late eh, andito rin ako sa pasong tamo extension manila memorial office.

karen's thought: muntikan na...

every experience brings out something good.
good times becomes good memories.
bad times become good lesson.
you never lose, you only gain from life.

All i need

Everywhere someone's getting over
Everybody cries
And sometimes you can still lose even if you really try
Talking about the dream
Like the dream is over
Talk like that
Won't get you nowhere
Everybody's trusting in the heart
Like the heart don't lie

[Chorus]

And that's all that I need, yeah
Someone else to cling to, yeah
Someone I can lean on
Until I don't need to
Just stay all through the night
In the morning let me down
Cause that's all that I need right now

Everywhere someone's getting over
Everybodys life is someone
People still use other people with a crooked smile
And all around the world there's a sinking feeling
Out there right now someone's feeling
Down on themselves and don't know why
Every night

[Chorus]

And that's all that I need, yeah
Someone else to cling to, yeah
Someone I can lean on
Until I don't need to
Just stay all through the night, yeah
In the morning let me down
Cause that's all that I need right now

And life ain't no beauty show
We don't know where tomorrow ends
And when we're sad
It's kind of a drag

Just stay all through the night
In the morning let me down
Yeah, cause that's all that I need
Yeah, that's all that I need
Yeah, that's all that I need
That's all that I need right now
Right now

Ulan

Lagi nalang umu-ulan
Parang walang katapusan
Tulad ng paghihirapko ngayon
Parang walang humpay
Sa kabila ng lahat ng aking pagsisikap
Na limutin ka ay di parin maggawa

Hindi naman ako tanga
Alam ko na wala kana
Pero mahirap lang na tanggapin
Di na kita kapiling
Iniwan mo ako nag-iisa
Sa gitna ng dilim at basing-basa pa sa ulan

Pero huwag mag-alala
dina kita gagambalain
Alam ko naman ngayon
may kapiling ka nang-iba

Tanging hiling ko sa’yo
Na tuwing umu-ulan
Maalala mo sanang may
Nagmamahal sa’yo. Ako…..
Lalalalalalalalala….

you are the perfect person that i know...

so sweet, so nice, always on my mind,
so kind and very special...

and im thankful because...

damn! your mine!

from Jeff C.

you have found true love the day you realize
that you want to wake up beisde your lover, every morning.
even though you have your differences.

from Jeff C.

i wish we'd grow old friends together...
we would hangout and maybe we could bring our grandchildren along...
and when they ask us how long we've been together,
we'll smile and say...
almost forever

from Trina E.

i always
wanna let
you know how
special you are to me

but i cant find the
right words to prove
it...

hope this one works

just like what casper said...



"can i keep you?"...


from Jeff C.

i saw an old painting of two friends holding hands,
i wonder how long it will stay intact?
its old yet never fading.
i wish we were that painting, getting old yet never changing.

from Cher T.

taken in our new house in town and country, antipolo rizal with my best friends. this photo is also our last photo together. sanchia left for cebu, a week after this photo is taken, i miss sanchia so much.
im a bad writer, i cant express how i feel.
since sanchia's migration, the four of us were never complete. Skip has work on weekdays and would rather rest on weekends than hangout with us. Karen is the overtime girl and Gary has full of issues... hay... well, despite that we're still trying to see eachother atleast every week even were not complete. but i guess this is what really life is... so many issues.

Eyes On Me

When ever sang my songs
On the stage, on my own
When ever said my words
Wishing they would be heard
I saw you smiling at me
Was it real or just my fantasy?
You'd always be there in the corner
Of this tiny little bar

My last night here for you
Same old songs, just once more
My last night here with you
Maybe yes, maybe no
I kind of liked it your way
How you shyly placed your eyes on me
Did you ever know
That I had mine on you

Darlin', so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer

So let me come to you
Close as I want to be
Close enough for me
To feel your heart beating fast
And stay there as I whisper
How I love your peaceful eyes on me
Did you ever know
That I had mine on you

Darlin', so share with me
Your love if you have enough
The tears if you're holding back
Or pain if that's what it is
How can I let you know
I'm more than the dress and the voice
Just reach me out and then
You will know that you are not dreaming

Darlin', so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer

The Last Tme

The first time I fell in love was long ago.
I didn't know how to give my love at all.
The next time I settled for what felt so close.
But without romance, you're never gonna fall.
After everything I've learned;
Now it's finally my turn.
This is the last time I'll fall... in love.
The first time we walked under that starry sky,
there was a moment when everything was clear.
I didn't need to ask or even wonder why, because each question is answered when your near.
and I'm wise enough to know when a miracle unfolds, this is the last time i'll fall in love.
Now don't hold back, just let me know.
Could i be moving much too fast or way too slow.
'Cause all of my life, I've waited for this day.
To find that once in a lifetime, this is it, I'll never be the same.
You'll never know what it's taken me to say these words.
And now that I've said them, they could never be enough.
As far as I can see, there's only you and only me.

This is the last time I'll fall in love.
Last time i'll fall in love.
The last time i'll fall... in love.

saturday nightout!!!

God's Field

In a dream, GOD told me, that I could pick up
a man I like from his fields.But I have to
choose only one. Once na nakapili na ako, I have
to raise my hand and say I finally found him,
then go back to GOD for praise. But, he has this
condition, na I could never turn back. Once
nalampasan ko, I should move forward. Sabi ko,
GOD won't give me rotten crops of men. i have
been a good daughter and I deserve to be with a
good man.

So my journey begin, as I went through the
field, nakita ko ang ibat ibang klase ng lalake.
Some were tempting me to pick them up. Pero sabi
ko, baka may mas gwapo, mas mabait, mas
matalino, mas masipag, mas mahal ako sa dulo ng
field na ito. I let go. Once. Twice. Believing
that in the end of the field is my prince,
waiting for me.

Then I saw a man. He sees me while I was
there picking up crops in GODS field. He looked
at me straight eye. And I don't know why, pero
there is something in him that I longed for.
Pero di pwede. I have to make it to the end of
the field. I have to see the right prince. If
habang lumalayo ako, nakakakita ako ng ganitong
klase ng lalake, baka in the other end may mas
hihigit pa sa kanya.

Until, I reached the end of the field. GOD
asked me "Di ba napakakulit mo, araw araw
nagdadasal ka na magkaroon ng partner in life,
but ngayon bakit wala kang dala. My crops are
all fresh and good. There is none there na di
maganda. All for the picking."

I answered. "I thought I would see someone at
the end of your crops, my LORD, wala na pala.
Each steps to perfection na hinahanap ko is a
step to nothingness. I have met someone in my
path but I did let him go. Believeing na there
is someone better, at the end of your field.

God said, Im sorry my child, but you have to
face reality. I have given you enough time to
choose. Face these consequences.

Then I said, "I'm sorry that I wasn't brave
enough to raise my hand in the middle of the
field and commit myself to someone. I was not
ready to face the challanges of life with
someone I thought was of lesser value than me..

I'm sorry.

Dont let the sun go down on me

I can’t light no more of your darkness
All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
I’m growing tired and time stands still before me
Frozen here on the ladder of my life

It’s much too late to save myself from falling
I took a chance and changed your way of life
But you misread my meaning when I met you
Closed the door and left me blinded by the light

Don’t let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself, it’s always someone else I see
I’d just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me

I can’t find
Oh, the right romantic line
But see me once and see the way feel
Don’t discard me baby don’t
Just because you think I mean you harm
Just because you think I mean you harm, oh
But these cuts I have, cuts I have
They need love
They need love, they need love to help them heal

Oh, don’t let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself, it’s always someone else I see
I’d just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
Cause’ losing everything is like the sun going down on me

Don’t let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself, it’s always someone else I that see, yeah
I’d just allow a fragment of your life to wander free baby, oh
Cause’ losing everything is like the sun going down on me

wedding

Jun 17 2005 is Sheila's wedding. Infact, i just got home from the wedding pary at Shangrila Hotel. It was one exhausting night. i woke up at 8am, use the internet to check mails then went to the gym to get my body weight composition (that will be in another blog entry). Went to Shopwise and did my weekly grocery and did other errands.

This is a much awaited wedding. im glad it was very successful. All of us did a lot of our part for this wedding, from the bridal shower party to burning music that will be used for the wedding video to helping eachother pick out what to wear. we were stressed like the bride making sure everything will be great, after all we are like Sheila's family. Sheila's thank you toast suprised us, she had done a lot of thank yous than anyone that i know but most of all, I was touched with her sincerity in thanking her sister. Ive never seen much love being in those words that uttered her mouth... "Thank you ate Dang" was the phrase she used and to me everything she wanted to say to her sister was incorporated in that phrase.

Sanchia

this is sanchia. her love is KING!

You're The Best Thing

I could be discontent
Just the rainbow's end
I might wait much more
But lose all that is mine
I could be a liar
But I know I'm not
I'm content just with the riches that you bring
I might shoot to win
And commit the sin
I wanted more than I've already got
I could run away
But I'd rather stay
With the warmth of your smile
Lighting up my day
And all that makes me say
You're the best thing that ever happened
To me in all the world
You're the best thing that ever happened
So don't go awayI might be a king
Still my people sing
But I don't go for that
Power crazy way
All that I could rule
I'll check for fools
That I need is left to lift my way
This is what I say
You're the best thing that ever happened
To me in all the world
You're the best thing that ever happened
So don't go away
It's all I need
You're the best for me
You come and rock my dreams
You take a chance from me
It's all I need
You're the best for me
You come and rock my dreams
You take a chance from me
You're the best thing that ever happened
To me in all the world
You're the best thing that ever happened
So don't go away
You're the best thing that ever happened
To me in all the world
You're the best thing that ever happened
So don't go away
