When I was still chained to a computer 5 days a week, what made cubicle incarceration worthwhile is facing a blank Wordpress blog template and filling it up with my thoughts. Sometimes they come tumbling out by themselves in an outpouring of joy or angst or fear or gratitude. Often, I find myself groping for […]
i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun […]
Now being without you
Takes a lot of getting used to
Should learn to live with it
But I dont want to
Living without you
Is all a big mistake
Instead of getting easier
It’s the hardest thing to take
Im addicted to ya babe
You’re a hard habit to break
5 days….
When I was 21, young, naive, and delusional, I made a covenant with two equally naive and delusional girls. Here is the result of thesis stress, hormonal imbalance, senti overload and prayers (I think) rolled into a list:

“But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” Isaiah 40:31
Another month gone so fast. The story of my life the past year: time flying past and me chasing hard after […]
What’s happening on the 14th? Just the usual for me. A Thursday EDL class, enjoying the “provincial” feel of Diliman, and packing for a school immersion trip in Zambales the next day. Happy thought, I’m on leave on the 14th. That week is also when people will converge on the UP Fair, and the day […]
I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your […]
Enough of the angst. Here is my happy list. Inspired by the commercial and a blog by the Simple Dollar, I listed down the things which make me happy and are free. Or at least, with a negligible price tag.
1. long talks with friends
2. reading borrowed or library books
3. hugs
4. walking along the edges of […]
I just enjoyed five platefuls of spicy caldereta, chopsuey, rice and chicken lollipops in our team’s victory lunch. Now, I am a nursing a very full stomach and massaging a sore jaw. Which reminds me…
This x-ray of an unknown person’s teeth is from the Internet.
Unfortunately, it bears a good resemblance to my actual lower jaw. […]
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 […]
