Friendster Flooders

Ever had such friends in friendster??? Those people who just can't be satisfied by posting their bulletin once, (or twice or even three times that's ok) but posts them so it fills up like 10 over pages of bulettin (10 posts per page) AAaaarrrGgGHHHH! Here's a bulletin i posted especially for them...

TIGILAN MO NA!!!! (eng. translation!: stop it!!!)

I am getting really annoyed with people who flood
my bulettin board. IT TOTALLY DEFEATS THE
PURPOSE OF IT!!! two or three times is alryt with
me...but 5-10 pages of bulettin (10 posts per
page!!!) is retarded! (pardon me)... gosh!!! ur
blocking away all other important bulettin... if it's
really that important send individual emails!!! if
you're just missing somone? then send an email to
that guy or call him!!! we don't need to know how
lovesick you are!!!

ARRRRRGGGHHH!!! im losing my cool ryt now!!!!
aaaaaahhhh!!! and i mean if those people who send
such stuff don't even read this....much much
worse!!! they flood ur bulettin but they don't read
other posts!!! aaarrrggghhh! well if you're one of
them... im gonna be nice... stop that habit...coz
from now on...anyone that does it... i'll give him/her
a piece of my mind and then ill delete u from my
friend list! SO WHAT??? you say??? well, it would
make me feel better and also ill finally get rid of
you.

so...next time you post... THINK TWICE ABOUT
SENDING IT GAZILLION TIMES!!! PEOPLE WILL
JUST GET ANNOYED AND THE MORE THEY
GET ANNOYED THE MORE THEY WON'T READ
UR POSTS!!!

comprender???

goes to everyone who reads this...especially those
in the phil... my countrymen! a handfull tend to do
this alot... sigh... ill cool down now.

angel

ooohhh...im a sucker for ballads....love this song. found this in paulo's blog.
there are people in our lives whom we consider our angels. im greatly indebted to all of mine. you guys know who you are!

(i've removed the video...to make way for other songs...you won't want multiple songs playing at once :D)

Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance
For a break that would make it okay
There?s always one reason
To feel not good enough
And it?s hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh beautiful release
Memory seeps from my veins
Let me be empty
And weightless and maybe
I?ll find some peace tonight

In the arms of an angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You?re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there

So tired of the straight line
And everywhere you turn
There?s vultures and thieves at your back
And the storm keeps on twisting
You keep on building the lie
That you make up for all that you lack
It don?t make no difference
Escaping one last time
It?s easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
This glorious sadness that brings me to my knees

In the arms of an angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You?re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there
You?re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here

so true...

On the Way Down
by Ryan Cabrera

Sick and Tired of this world
There's no more air
Trippin' over myself
Goin' nowhere
Waiting
Suffocating
No direction
And I took a dive

And on the way down
I saw you
And you saved me
From myself
And I won't forget
The way you loved me
On the way down
Almost fell right through
But I held onto you

I've been wondering why
It's only me
Have you always been inside
Waiting to breathe
It's alright
Sunlight
On my face
I wake up and yeah, I'm alive

'cause on the way down
I saw you
And you saved me
From myself
And I won't forget
The way you loved me
On the way down
Almost fell right through
But I held onto you

I was so afraid
Of going under
But now
The weight of the world
Feels like nothing, no, nothing

Down, down, down
You're all I wanted
Down, down, down
You're all I needed
Down, down, down
You're all I wanted
You're all I needed

And I won't forget the way you loved me

All that I wanted
All that I needed

On the way down
I saw you
And you saved me
From myself
And I won't forget
The way you loved me
On the way down
I almost fell right through
But I held onto you

Down, down, down
But I held onto you
Down, down, down
But I held onto you

to you my friend...

Friends Never Say Goodbye
by Elton John

There isn't much I haven't shared
With you along the road
And through it all there'd always be
Tomorrow's episode
Suddenly that isn't true
There's another avenue
Beckoning the great divide
Ask no questions, take no side
Who's to say who's right or wrong
Whose course is braver run
Still we are, have always been
Will ever be as one

What is done has been done for the best
Though the mist in my eyes might suggest
Just a little confusion about what I'll lose
But if I started over I know I would choose
The same joy the same sadness each step of the way
That fought me and tought me that friends never say
Never say goodbye
Never say goodbye
Never say goodbye
Never say goodbye

Suddenly that isn't true
There's another avenue
Beckoning, the great divide
I would choose
The same joy the same sadness each step of the way
That fought me and taught me that friends never say
Never say goodbye
Never say goodbye
Never say goodbye
Never say goodbye

floating mist
on an autumn dusk
wandering soul
behind a mask

broken spirit
with wings clipped
brave captain
on a wrecked ship

eager being
its fire quenched
fighting soldier
burried in his trench

yearning to fly
the sky to soar
alas he fell
never more, never more

Archie Van Gogh

As I reflect through the things that just occured...one song played in my music collection... how timely...
Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul

This is one of those days, when you think everything you ever did in your life was wrong... a mistake... a joke from God...
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colors on the snowy linen land

I don't understand why i have to feel this way. This is freakin' pathetic writing it in my blog. But this is the only outlet for me for now. (I sound so emotional...maybe even gay to alot of people...haha that's how i feel now - emotional huh, not gay - and i don't really care what people reading this will think) See even when I wanna say something serious I try to lighten it up and joke about it. I iritate myself.
Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

All my life, I try to be good at things...and - not to sound arrogant - I've succeed in that. I was top in school, even popular or at least well accepted as I call it. I got a scholarship to Singapore. I believe I'm born to lead. I can dance, sing, act, play sports pretty decently. Basically give me anything and I'll do it even better.
Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
But right now, all that seemed useless. My life's crumbling before my eyes. I've disappointed, wronged, offended, laughed at, pissed, burned a lot of people. And most of them, I care about. I screwed up pretty badly. And all that was left was me.
Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

And now, I feel alone. I don't think anyone uderstands. I don't think anyone ever did, ever will.
For they could not love you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left inside
On that starry, starry night
You took your life as lovers often do
But I could have told you Vincent
This world was never meant for one as
beautiful as you

Funny how I'm writing in the context of a song written for Van Gough. But when a song speaks to you, it just does. I don't think I'll be taking my life like him. That's not for me to decide. But one thing's common, I'm feeling as alone as he must have felt back then. Misunderstood. Condemned. But unlike him, I'm also at fault.
Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
The silver thorn of bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow

Now I think I know
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will

When will someone understand? I used to really care that people will, that i will find close friends who will... It seems like a trivial question to me now. Have I crashed and burned... probably, but i'd like to think of it as going back to the One who's been there all the time. I've got issues most people can't handle. But He can, and He will. Like Van Gough, I'd like to leave a legacy. The paintings he drew was appreciated only after his time...but still he left a mark on this world. As my one true friend tells me, there's so much things to do, things will unravel in His own time, His own way. I just gotta let Him lead the way. I've plunged down and crashed. Now the only way to go, is UP.

***song: Vincent by Don McLean

Monday Blues

out.



March 06, 2005

what day is it???

I just woke up. Feeling really disorientated. Hate these type of days when you can't separate day and night anymore. waaaahhhh...my body is in a different time zone. I shall never recommend not sleeping for several consecutive days for obvious reasons. I've either been studying, watching reruns of shows, or just plain 'ol chatting with my friends. (a lot of times a mixture of all). 1. not productive. 2. it leaves you drained. 3. the rest of the time when the rest of the world is awake with you, people will either notice you as snob, "something wrong with you today", or just don't wanna say anything at all coz you look like you're gonna eat the head of the next person who ticks you off...

did i mention i was feeling this way?
hate it....




hillarious!

ok...sorry to my non-filipino readers. just gotta post this one. lately i've been making fun of my country's accent (right taufik? blast ppl?) i dunno what got me to join them (haha if you can't beat them right?)... they're english words but once pronounced in a filipino (very crispy) accent the meaning's totally changed. hahaha... a number of them are in my languange... if you don't know filipino (more known as tagalog to alot of people though we've changed that years ago) read the one's in italics. you should be able to understand. for those who can understand my beautiful language (im proud of it) you're gonna have a good laugh. (props to cedric...i dunno where he got this...but it's funny) im not translating some of them, lest the humour will be compromised. :P enjoy

where?... down the drain

heading straight to the wall
can't stop what's going to happen
don't know what's next
tracing back my steps
but seems there's no more turning back
go forward
or don't go at all
heading for a collision course
where to?
who knows?


my thoughts are going down the drain




Sometimes You Can't Make it on Your Own

U2

Tough, you think you`ve got the stuff
You`re telling me and anyone
You`re hard enough

You don`t have to put up a fight
You don`t have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don`t have to go it alone

And it`s you when I look in the mirror
And it`s you when I don`t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can`t make it on your own

We fight all the time
You and I... that`s alright
We`re the same soul
I don`t need... I don`t need to hear you say
That if we weren`t so alike
You`d like me a whole lot more

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don`t have to go it alone

And it`s you when I look in the mirror
And it`s you when I don`t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can`t make it on your own

I know that we don`t talk
I`m sick of it all
Can you hear me when I Sing,
you`re the reason I sing
You`re the reason why the opera is in me

Where are we now?
I`ve got to let you know
A house still doesn`t make a home
Don`t leave me here alone

And it`s you when I look in the mirror
And it`s you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can`t make it on your own
Sometimes you can`t make it
The best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can`t make it on your own
