12 months. 365 days. And I’m still here. Amazing. Career record breaker ito.
My mind is groping for a song, poem, words, anything profound to express my feelings at this moment. It is searching in vain.
I’m distracting myself with a lot of what-if questions, far off thoughts as I get voicemails on the phone, and a deep […]
I don’t know why I keep on making this list when I end up forgetting all the items by the 2nd week of January. Like banging my head against a brick wall… But hey, while there’s life there’s hope.
Faith Walk
1. Feeding. Daily QT, weekly CG or BS and quarterly SR. Back to “milk” for me.
2. […]
The first half of my Christmas break is over. Definitely not enough; good thing there is a 2nd bout of downtime next week. Christmas 2007 was crammed with:
Eating. Waiting for food to be cooked. Eating some more. Especially Tarlac delicacies like bagis (carabao meat), burong hipon (fermented rice with shrimp), kilawin (meat with vinegar), my […]
My faithful Father, enduring Friend
Your tender mercy’s like a river with no end
It overwhelms me, covers my sin
Each time I come into Your presence
I stand in wonder once again
CHORUS:
Your grace still amazes me
Your love is still a mystery
Each day I fall on my knees
Your grace still amazes me
‘Cause Your grace still amazes me
Oh, […]
I just slept over at my brother’s dorm so that I can wake up on time. For what? Well, are required to write a reaction paper on a cultural event in UP. While I was tempted for a moment to give my academic take on the Oblation Run, I realized my innocent eyes can’t handle […]
Last Sunday was not spent in my usual chores-church-choir-comatose routine.
First, we had to perform the Welcome to Our World cantata again during the morning service, with a smaller stage and a much smaller cast. Managed to pull it off despite being absent for the Saturday rehearsal, waking up late, and committing a few blunders.
Then had […]
“Run”
by Collective Soul
Are these times contagious
I’ve never been this bored before
Is this the prize I’ve waited for
Now as the hours passing
There’s nothing left here to mature
I long to find a messenger
Have I got a long way to run [x2]
Yeah, I run [x2]
Is there a cure among us
From this processed sanity
I weaken with each voice that […]
9:30pm, Tuesday
This song played in the cab in sync with my random, wandering thoughts:
So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
What have I done? A lot; I’ve covered this year’s hecticness in a previous post, When I remember 2007. I am amazed though at how time flies. A […]
My 13th month pay has come and gone in a few hours. Where did it go?
Responsible Ways of Spending my Holiday Bonus
1. Save - for my tuition, field trip, summer shennanigans and to fend off the threat of starvation.
2. Bills - while I can still contribute to them.
3. Investment - after dipping my toe in […]
SAD Wilderness period. Like the Israelites, I wandered around not knowing when and how I’ll get to the Promised Land. Spiritually speaking, I felt like I was climbing a very wide staircase… just rapidly moving horizontally across a single step, but rarely moving upward. A lot of activity but no real progress. Mostly my fault; […]
