Passport #12

"He was free to enjoy the breathless glee that overwhelmed him: the speed, the clear cold air, the total silence, the feeling of balance and excitement and peace."
- Lois Lowry, The Giver, Ch. 11

Today, when i was walking to PE class...I felt Life.
It looked at me and I looked back and...for some reason, it made me smile.

Bianca's Christmas party

It's the second year of Bianca's annual Christmas party at mcdo, Ayala Alabang and my sister invited me to go so i went! It was only for two hours but it was great fun! I really admire Bianca Gonzales for doing things like this, i hope other artists are giving also for Christmas......WE SHOULD ALL GIVE. :)

My Kid Partner, Gerald!

Christmas 09

The only thing i really want for Christmas is celebrating it with my whole family like..5 years ago? I'm not exactly sure but that's the last Christmas i celebrated it with a complete family. You see, my dad's a mariner and he's tied with the contract so he can't always go home for Christmas. It's really sad. But at least my brother's here. I really hope that next year we can celebrate it with my dad. I really miss him and Holidays without him isn't really fun. It's like when you were still a kid and you would hang your socks near your bed or on your staircase hoping to receive gifts from Santa Claus and you wake up early the next day realizing that the socks are still empty. yeah, It's pretty much like that *sigh*. However, there were still a lot of things that i was happy about this Chritsmas like Nolan coming home from Afghanistan. He's a marine and he goes to all these dangerous places and yeah you know, war..so I'm really happy that we got to see him. He's so batak! haha. And of course, like everyone who goes abroad, the first thing they miss about the Philippines is Jollibee. I remembered my brother who ordered 3 jolly Spaghetti when he came back from Australia and kuya yuya who got a 2 piece chicken meal and one Spag. when he arrived here from Japan. Nolan, on the other hand, got a BUCKET of chicken and he ate all of 'em. and for the record, he wasn't satisfied...he wanted more! :)) Another thing that i was so excited about is my cousins whom i didn't get to see last Christmas, had their Christmas vacation here at our house. Tita Lita came home as well from Japan. I'm hella glad to see these people and with all of 'em present, the house became a Home again. Yeap! with the tong-its, 123 pass, lucky 9 and pusoy dos sessions! Eating sardines for lunch and our all nighters! Going to MOA for no reason, DVD marathons and walang katapusan na kainan. Merry Christmas! :)

Thanks for the 525,600 minutes (no, actually just 7 months :P), 525,000 moments so dear...In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights, in cups of coffee. In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife....
let's celebrate remember a year in the life of friends. Remember the love!

do you tell yourself You're just a fool ?

Passport #11

I realized that im being too unfair and selfish. You know those days when you say that "you hate your life", "this day sucks", "i can just die", or "everything is going wrong with my life"? when in truth you know that it isn't? yes, im guilty of this and it's such a shame that no matter how much i try to be positive..i still can't.

It's unfair to think that MY life sucks when
-some people dont even get to eat a proper meal and i complain about not getting to drink starbucks
-some people sleep on the streets and they're even lucky if they have a karton to sleep on and i complain that my bed is not soft enough
-some people dont have anything to eat the next day and here i am wasting food every single day
-some students dont have baons or even a peso in their pockets and i complain that my allowance is not enough.
-some people dont have anything to wear and i complain about how many times i repeat my clothes.
-some children walk barefooted on the hot asphalt and i complain because im not wearing havaianas.
-some people dont have a pen to write with and i complain because im holding a panda pen instead of a G tec
-some people dont even get to hold coloring materials and i complain because i dont own a set of steadlers
-some people are born without limbs and i complain about my thighs because they're big
-some people cannot afford to go to school and i complain because i hate my school
-some people walk god knows how many kilometers just to go to school and i complain because i have to commute
- and the list goes on...

see how unfair life is, do you see how selfish i am. do you see how cruel the world is?

Change by Carrie Underwood

I LOVE THIS SONG, IT'S LIKE MY NEW FAVORITE SONG RIGHT NOW :>
and the way Carrie performed it ...amazing :)

What'cha gonna do with the 36 cents
Sticky with Coke on your floorboard
When a woman on the street is huddle in the cold
On a sidewalk vent trying to keep warm
Do you call her over hand her the change
Ask her a story ask her her name
Or do you tell yourself

You're just a fool
Just a fool
You believe you can change the world
You're just a fool
Just a fool
You believe you can change the world

What'cha gonna do when you're watching t.v.
And an ad comes on
Yeah you know the kind
Flashin' up pictures of a child in need
For a dime a day you can save a life
Do you call the number reach out a hand
Or do you change the channel call it a scam
Or do you tell yourself

You're just a fool
Just a fool
You believe you can change the world
Don't listen to them when they say
You're just a fool
Just a fool
You believe you can change the world
Oh the smallest thing can make all the difference
Love is alive
Don't listen to them when they say
You're just a fool
Just a fool
You believe you can change the world

The worlds so big it could break your heart
And you just wanna help
But not sure where to start
so you close your eyes
Send up a prayer into the dark

You're just a fool
Just a fool
You believe you can change the world
Don't listen to them when they say
Youre just a fool
Just a fool you believe
You can change the world
Oh the smallest thing can all the difference
Love is alive
Don't listen to them when they say
You're just a fool
Just a fool
You believe you can change the world

whatcha gonna do with 36 cents?

yesssir! i've gots the planner. Thank you Marga for giving me your sticker i owe you one!! :>
