just for kicks...



I’m on my second week of internship and what can I say, it’s a pretty serious task and lots of passion and commitment required. I’m never going to complain. Nope. Not even if they ask me to tutor on day 2 and facilitate a class of 5 on day 3… I couldn’t be any prouder of myself for having achieved something that I was dreading. Well one of the many things I’ve been dreading. (speaking of dreading—as of writing, no word yet on the recently concluded board exam which btw, I am still not confident about)

Anyway, such blessings-those kids are. How can you not love them? In my Crossroads class I have 5 special kids…Josh, Tommy, Jp, Rr and Wesley. Interesting kids I should say. Most of them diagnosed as showing an impression of autism and I’ve one cerebral palsy case. They are my kids now. In my hands, is the biggest responsibility I could ever handle…I’ve to facilitate their learning and this is way serious stuff. Not to mention I had to adjust my schedule to fit all these into my life. I had to compromise my earnings a bit just so I could get on with this. Definitely serious stuff. So unlike me…hahaha.

Oooohhh, I forgot. Almost a week ago, I got me some thai foot scrub. Heavenly--I could do that everyday you know…really serious pampering there. Wish I had more munny to spare for that. But the practical side of me would scold me every time. Like haunt me for life..hehehe. Sure-- spend all your hard earned moolah feeding them masseurs and masseuse…hehehe.

Anyway, my gym buddy’s always procrastinating about going that it’s getting to me. Nah, but I’m still adjusting anyway to my recently adjusted sked. So I’ll prolly get back in my gym-buddyless psyche in a few kicks or so , so until then, I’m not going to be too hard on myself. Hmmmh…

oh when the days...come marching in!


something I’m loving these days… from Jay Kay and the rest of Jamiroquai who owns just about all my dream cars… I'm still composing the rationale while I like it so much..tell you the story soon...


"Seven Days in Sunny June"

The pebbles you've arranged
In the sand, they're strange
They speak to me like constellations
As we lie here
There's a magic I can hold
Your smile of honey gold
And that you never seem to be in short supply of

[Chorus:]
Oooh, so baby let's get it on
Drinking wine and killing time
Sitting in the summer sun
You know I've wanted you so long
Why do you have to
Drop that bomb on me?

Lazy days, crazy dolls
You said we've been friends too long
Seven days in sunny June
Were long enough to bloom
The flowers on the summer dress you wore in spring
The way we laughed as one
And then you dropped the bomb
That I've known you too long
For us to have a thing

[Chorus x2]

Could it be this?
The stories in your eyes
The silent wings
You'll fly away on

Seven days in sunny June
Were long enough to bloom
The flowers on the sunbeam dress you wore in spring
Yeah, yeah, the way we laughed as one
Why did you drop the bomb on me?

[Chorus]

Could it be this?
The honeysuckle blessings you seem to show me
Could it be this?
For seven days in June I wasn't lonely
Could it be this?
You never gave me time to say I love you
Could it be this?
I know you don't believe me but it's so true

Don't walk away from me, girl
I read the sories in your eyes
Don't you walk away from me, girl
I read the sories in your eyes
Don't you walk away from me, girl
I read the sories in your eyes
Don't you walk away
I read the sories in your eyes

And you've been telling me
We've been friends for too long
Why do you want to drop the bomb?
Telling me
We've been friends for too long
Why do you want to drop the bomb?
You tell me we've been friends for too long, yeah
I think I love you
I think I love you
Why do you want to drop that bomb?

the magic of waiting...


I’m waiting…with baited breath..hala! I feel I didn’t do so well last Sunday that I might actually not get it…geez. No, actually I’m psyching myself for whatever. Anyhoo, I’m just holding on to my prayers. Now, isn’t that too late? Uhmmm. I dunno… I know I’m supposed to go back to Manaoag. It’s a promise. And I also promised St. Claire. Oh no!!!
A funny test item came up that got me smiling… there’s this person who didn’t study, but she spent about an hour and a half praying… the question was, how does she view god? God as authentic.. God as religious…God as redeeming…or God as magic??? Eeeeennnnnnnngkkk!!! M-A-G-I-C…Hehehehe..I dunno… everybody says that we got it really tough.. why must this happen to me? Ack! Hay, but it’s all good…I guess I have to deal with failures every now and then…I know I’m being too hard on myself but you know, I know I can do things. I can make things happen had I given much more time.

Munny overflows these days… I wonder why! Hahaha…but no, I needa pay the bills. There’s the fone, the cable, my debts…I need some pampering too…need to stock up also on the drugs, er vitamins…

a prayer for the druggie...



I’m doing drugs these days…legal ones though. Darn it! Hehehe… I never really liked taking vitamins and stuff that supposed to be good to the body. But I suppose I’m older (oh yeah?) now, and I think I really need to put some order in my life. Naks… I still can’t believe that I’m on this healthy mode …prolly because of my latest passion. Hmmmh..could I really say that going to the gym is my latest habit?moreso passion? Hmmmh,again! Well, I like how I feel…

Anyhoo, I just came back from a pilgrimage to Manaoag, Pangasinan yesterday with my friend Odette…Went there 6am, got there 1040ish…got on the bus home at around 4ish…and got home at around 9ish… I had a terrible headache on my way back. But it was all good..I know it was well worth it. Call it a homecoming…I used to go there a lot when I’s a kid. Last I’ve been there though was around 23-25 years ago… I am not used to traveling really but it was something I’ve been meaning to do. Yup, I have this strong feeling that I’m going back there.

I need a massage!!! Badly need one…I dunno if I should get it Friday or Saturday…depends on my budget too… It’s a good thing that mama has munny these days that I need not pay what I owe her immediately. She was even willing to loan me munny for the trip yesterday.

As for the progress in my studying…I have these terrible headaches plaguing me. I’m still scared that glutaphos thingie-majig… should I or should I not??? I never relied on that even before so should I risk it? Hmmmmh…I need to eat lots peanuts though in the hopes that the test itself would be peanuts!!! Ahahahaha!

Be needing all the prayers I can get. But don't worry, I'll also try my best to study...I'm quite serious about this though. At least around the past coupla weeks.

Goodluck to me...
