The Little Child

The Little Child

He cried over the saddest things
And no one seemed to care
But a little boy who seemed to know nothing
Who couldn't help but stare

Why isn't anyone helping
If everyone can see?
Oh, he's just overreacting
I'd stop if I were he.

The kid stared in deep silence
At the man, no one could see
Something must be bothering him
For him to cry as he.

The child decided to reach out
to the man who cried and cried.
and the man shared with him
all his problems wide.

In the end, all he needed
was simply a listening ear
everything was finally well
the man, deprived from tears.

How did you know
What I simply need?
If everyone else around you
won't even stop to heed?

The kid smiled at the man
And explained why he did
He simply acted in a whim
Without thinking of his deed.

I wasn't afraid that
they might be right all along
What I was afraid of was
What if they were wrong?

Ah, Nothing like noobish poetry, haha. Okay, so maybe you, if you exist, are wondering why I suddenly had two updates. Well, the answer is because the update before this was simply posted late... Very late, I might add.

Anyway, after a long time, the second term is finally over. Sad as it may be, it means farewell to many of my blockmates. Though the time was short, I really felt happy and accepted with you guys.

Anyway, how did I do on my finals? *Shudder* I hope I did well xp. The two dangerous subjects are Math113 and Intsta1. Although I'm kinda safe with Intsta1 because of my tests, I'm in danger because of the finals. As for the Math113... I don't want to think about that anymore. Haha.

Hmm... Oh look, It's 4:00pm. New game day time! Haha. That's it for now, I guess. Catch ya later ^^

It Hurts...

It Hurts...

The more you get from something, the more you lose when it fades away. It was a hard lesson. But it hurts more than many others.

Today was the enrollment day for our block. We knew it was coming. But we took it for granted. No... I did...

I felt deep within me that it meant a high chance of goodbyes and parting. Just like always, I went on my usual way of not caring till I cross the bridge. but when I arrived, the bridge was washed away.

The enrollment for our college was separated from A-K and L-Z. In order to retain our block, my blockmates shared their schedule for us to copy. At first, everything seemed to work out fine. Until two of our schedules overlapped. It was either switch or drop. The two subjects were Fildlar and Math114. Switching the schedule of Fildlar was out of the question since it only had one slot left on the alternative section. Therefore, we had no choice but to change the schedule for Math114. After we switched, the problem began.

I thought everything was fine. I even head the feeling that it was easy inside me. However, it turned out that one of many of our blockmates switched their schedules just to be with us. In the end, we're separated.

Wounds of The Heart Special Entry #1

Random Thoughts

I've always thought of myself as different. I looked at myself differently and regarded to myself as special. I know I'm only human, just like the rest. However, I still feel as if the world revolves around me. I've always felt that when I cry, the world stops for me. But it doesn't...

If you cry, you cry alone. That is the sad truth. The world will keep moving no matter what happens to you. Nothing will stop for you for you're only but a speck of dust in the cogwheels of time. We're really pathetic if we think about it. So little that we're just like the wind that passes through.

I've always saw life as something with a happy ending. Every problem I had were solved in the end. Because of that, whenever I had a problem, I just put into my mind that everything will end well. Yes, I know that being optimistic has its benefits. However, what will happen if everything gets slammed into my face? What if the axe suddenly falls? Will I be able to recover, or will I change?

A Long Break

A Long Break

Greetings to everyone who might read this. Yes, I'm updating my blog again and no, I still don't have a poem to post. I'm not inspired anymore so I won't post poems for a long time.

I've been internet-less for a long time because of the typhoon Milenyo. But I'd like to thank her for giving me a new appreciation for lights, and for leaving. Thanks a lot for wasting a week of my life you darn typhoon!!! Ahem... Anywayz, because of that reason, I have a long entry today.

I said before in my past post that I was planning to make an online sketchpad. Well, I decided to forget it because of two reasons.
1. I was planning on using multiply to post my pictures. However, it seems like multiply automatically delete old posts. Of course, I'm not certain but I don't want to take any chances since it's a big waste of time.
2. I'm too lazy to look for other image hosting sites. Also, like I said in my reason number 1, it's too much of a hassle (okay, so I didn't say that. But that's what I'm implying).

Anyway, after reaching DL (no, not the Robert kind) status, my father seemed to expect more from me. He wanted me to reach Cum Laude (or something like that). Judging by my first Eco test, It'll be very hard (I was pawned). But I'm not giving up.

Deryk, my brother, is currently abroad training. He's very busy but still manages to keep contact of us (our family) and play shinobilegends. Keep it up xp.

I also went to stay overnight in Zar's house because of our two group projects (PE and Eco). Before, I thought it would be very troublesome. But now, I'll say it has been quite fun. Like always, we didn't pursue work before pleasure (Computer games). Nice... We also watched Battle Royale, a movie. It was so cool especially the microphone part. Scream!!! Lolz. We also managed to uncover Zar's few secrets. Like the secret of "his cousin". Riiiight~ And Kuro-chan! Lolz. Next morning, it was Julian and Chris' turn to be pawned. The overnight ended with me having a TRIPLE KILL! Hahah

Enough of that... Recently, I saw a thread in the forums I go to. It's about someone complaining about his stupid little brother. Welcome to my life, dude. I've thought many times about creating an entry about that but stopped myself a lot of times. Creating a list of my little brother's actions caused by stupidity and his illogical words will be a very long list.

Actually, that's not what really stopped me. What was scary was the idea that I might have once been like that. Everytime he does something so stupid that I want to beat him up for it, I get more unsure of myself. "Was I once like that?", I think to myself.

I'm supposed to have more to post. But I forgot what they are. Oh well, I guess that's it for now. Catch ya later ^^

Voiceless Once Again

Voiceless Once Again

I decided not to post any poems today, especially since I've run out of them. Maybe next time...

As I have predicted yesterday (see post below), I'm now officially voiceless. I'm so good in predicting. So good that I hate myself for being right.

Anywayz, after checking my notebook and non-existent schedule, I realized that we have some assignments on Monday.

1. Intreco- Read something...
2. Intfilo- Read Socrates and the cave thingy.
3. Fwsport- Not exactly for Monday, but what the heck...
4. Filkomu- Bring stuffs.
5. Basconc- Read Chapter 1 (For Mth-cap students only)
6. Math113- Better start studying...

Since I've just updated the blog yesterday, the update today will be short. In other words, that's it for now. Catch ya later ^^

A Thousand Masks

Time to continue my blog again...
But first, let's start off with an opening poem.

A Thousand Masks

I hide behind a thousand masks
Because I don't want you to know.
The fragile and lonely me inside,
I am afraid to show.
I may act fine,
Calm as I may be.
But these masks can never show
The one and only me.

If only there could be someone
To love me as I am.
For though I seem to need no one,
Inside, I'm all alone.
If I can drop all lies,
even if I get left behind.
As long as you can accept me,
I can remove these masks of mine.

One who doesn't need a plastic smile,
To lock away all tears.
One who isn't afraid at all
To admit all his fears.
To just release all insecurities
And cry whenever sad,
And still manage to have a genuine smile,
to laugh with whenever glad.

I may have a thousand masks,
Masks to hide behind.
I want you to see the real me,
The one crying inside.

Okay, so I just made this poem a while ago during CWTS. What!? I was bored!

Ahem, as some of you may know, I am very ill right now (sick just isn't the word). I predict I will have a fever tomorrow and probably lose my voice until Monday. A cause for celebration for my friends...

Anyway, this illness made me realize something important. "Don't worry. No matter how tough life gets, someone else has it worse," (or something like that). That's how people comfort themselves or others whenever they're having a hard time.

I hadn't been able to sleep well last night. I kept on coughing and coughing. It was very difficult and I envied my little brother, who was snoring loudly beside me. Later on, although I'm not sure if I fell asleep or not, my senses came back and I decided to take some medicine in the bathroom. after walking inside and turning on the light, I caught a glimpse of the time, which was exactly 3:00 (the time when Emily was possessed in the show, Exorcism of Emily Rose). Not that it came to my mind back then, I just wanted to share it to you.

Anyway, going back to the topic, when our maid woke me up on 7:20 am, I felt worse than ever. I then remembered the saying about someone having it worse than I do. I didn't like that feeling. I just felt then that I wish I was the only person suffering that much. If I was in so much pain, I just can't imagine being happy because someone else is suffering more. It wasn't right.

The lesson I want to share to the people reading this blog of mine, including myself, is that whenever you're having a difficult time, hope that no one else is suffering as much or more than you are instead of wishing for the contrary.

I'm getting tired. That's it for now. Catch ya later! ^^

Again, I'm Alone

Although I just recently updated my blog, I decided I would update it once again. Let's start off with an opening poem...

Again, I'm Alone

Again, I'm alone
voices of my peers echoes
once shattered the stone
emptying my heart of woes.

Maybe this is the way
things are meant to be
in a place far away
where I could be free.

Freedom I've sought
didn't seem the same
not as I have thought
this can make me insane.

Memories echoes
voices in my heart.
Again, I'm alone
as I've fallen apart.

This was a poem I made before the poem "It started with a lie". Unlike the other poem, this poem has a more abstract meaning. Don't bother even interpreting it. It is mine to understand alone...

Anyway, as I've told some people, I like writing stories. I'm here now to discuss the background of the stories.

Y.M.M.
An unexpected event changes the life of a young high school student. A love bound by their classes. A secret hidden from the rest.

**This has been very difficult for me to write. Especially since I'm typing it. I've stopped continuing the story for a long time and who knows when I'll continue it. Abandoning and trashing the story seems to be a waste because it took me a lot of time to create this story. Anyway, the plot has been very difficult for me to continue since I got stuck numerous times. But I've already decided on the ending. The hard part is connecting the current story to the ending. Anybody aside from me will probably not understand what I mean. Oh well...

Yuki no Kisetsu
An abandoned child... A father's parting gift...

**So far, I've only done one chapter of this story. The title means "Snow Season". Why? Because snow represents sorrow and serenity which basically are the theme of the story. Also, because I like that title. In fact, that title once belonged to an abandoned story of mine. I abandoned it because although the plot is great, it was very difficult to put the story into words... In other words, I'm giving up.

Oh, going to another topic, I've been thinking about making an online sketchpad where I can post my drawings from the past until now. I know my drawings from the past are funny, but I like the way I improved as time passed. Now, I'm proud of my drawings...

Okay, that's it for now. Catch ya later ^^

Second Term

Second Term

Time seemed to move by quickly. Before I knew it, second term is right on our toes (did that come out right?).

Ahem! Anywayz, after the first term, I surprisingly acquired DL status (surprisingly...?). Also, a blockmate of mine, chi*cough*nese ch*cough*ick mag*cough*net, treated some of us to play DOTA because he passed Trigo. Everything seemed to be going right. However, that time, I seemed to be waiting for the axe to fall. Something didn't seem quite right. Anyway, I passed that feeling already so I don't care anymore.

Like I was saying, or in this case typing, second term is already near. My brother is done with his studies and is already preparing for his job. Whether he already got it or will get it or not is beyond my knowledge (ignorance is bliss).

Oh yeah, my blockmates were planning a block outing today at Star City (don't ask me why there). However, because of rains (I almost said heavy rains), the outing was cancelled. I knew we should have planned on going to Mall of Asia. Oh well, that's that.

Oh, and another thing. You (if anybody's reading this stuff) probably noticed my new tagboard down there somewhere. *If you did notice it, please pick it up and return it to me. Thank you for your cooperation*. Ahem, enough of that. As I was planning to say, I'm thinking of placing a quote collection there. I already added several quotes. Some from me and some from Mr. youdontcarewho orifyoudotoughluck. I'm not stopping you from posting there though...

Oh well, that's it for now... Catch ya later ^^

It All Started with a Lie

Here is a special post for my blog. I wonder if others would understand it...

It All Started with a Lie

He tingled as he saw her.
Her arms clung to his.
A smile has swept her lips,
a smile he longed to see.
Maybe it's not what he thinks.
The truth he refused to see.
While knowing deep within him.
It is what is seems.

The day finally came,
a day he dreaded to be.
She was there in front of him,
beside her, it was he.
He loved her more everyday
and more in time to come.
Rather than just sit and pray,
he knew what's to be done.

He looked at her day by day,
as tears flowed from his eyes.
It was almost that special day,
time to drop all lies.
Everything was already there,
as he lay sleep and sound.
it was his final gift to her,
his life, where her love was bound.

Now that you've read it, try creating your interpretation of the poem and post it in the comments section. Thanks ^^

That's it for now... Catch ya later ^^

True Happiness/Sorrow

True Happiness/Sorrow

Without experiencing true sorrow, you will not be able to experience true happiness. That is the balance of life. It works for love, satisfaction, and many other emotions as well.

What made me write this things? For one thing, it is to remind myself and whoever is reading this that no matter how bad things go, everything will work out fine in the end. After experiencing true sorrow and pain, you will be able to find true happiness.

Just a while ago, I was surfing around the net trying to find my blog in the search engines (Hey, I was bored! Yeah yeah, I know I have a lot to do but I don't care). It was just for fun. However, I found a lot of other blogs aside from my own. I found a lot of stories about other people and after reading them, I was surprised how lucky I am to still have everything intact. I also commented on some of them ^^. Another surprising thing was when I saw a person change after reading the comments on his blog. Won't it be fun if we could help them out by showing them to the path to true happiness?

The moment you lost was the moment you gave up...

That's it for now... Catch ya later ^^

JMJW Disband

JMJW Disband

It's been a long time since JMJW separated. Not that we lost all contact with one another, but things have really changed ever since. I see Wayne once in a while but we really don't spend some time chatting with one another anymore. As for John, we still exchange text quotes, but not as often as before. Also, we seldom see each other in LaSalle. As for Marco, he texted me during my birthday. His cellphone number has +63 before it ^^ I thought he was supposed to be abroad.

Anywayz, I've gone on with my life (For some reason, that sounded wierd). I've met new friends and I became more sociable to people (At least I think I did). My friends are all fun to be with. Each has a unique character. But it's really not the same...

Oh well, that's it for now. Catch ya later ^^

After A Long Time...

After A Long Time...

It's been a while since I last updated this blog. Why, you ask? Is it because of the endless work I've been receiving? Is it because of the hardships of college? Actually, the reason is because I'm too lazy to update it.

Instead of writing just what happened today, I'll make a list of what have happened since the last time I've updated this blog.

During summer, we went to Dumaguete and China (Macau to be exact). During the trip to Dumaguete, I've found out that hell is filled with water. That's actually a joke I and my siblings made while we were on the boat. We were all veeery dizzy.

After summer, I'm officially a college student. Umm... that's it about that.

Actually, I forgot the other events after that except one very sad event. It was June 8,2006. It was the birthday of two of my blockmates. Before going to school, I played with our lovebirds. But one of the lovebirds flew and went to the new aviary we were having built. I took a stick and used it to get the bird. It worked too. The bird stepped on the stick and we got it back. After that, I returned the stick inside the aviary (it belonged there). After doing that, I stepped back. Unfortunately, one of the lovebirds, our favorite one, flew behind me. As a result, I accidentally stepped on it. It slowly died after that. I still cry whenever I think about the times I've spent with it. What if I just didn't step back? What if we didn't train it to be friendly to humans? It would have evaded if it was afraid of us. I wish I could turn back time, just to stop myself from stepping back.

Oh, one more thing. We were sent to the discipline office on my birthday. My blockmates were spreading the word that it was my birthday by writing on the board. I changed my name into "JAZEN" and my blockmates turned it into a "JAKE!!" in disguise. Unfortunately, while one of my blockmates were writing, he was caught by a D.O. (Discipline Office) officer. So we were sent to the D.O. Darn... XD

That's it for now, I'm getting tired of typing. Catch ya later ^^

Day After The Prom

Day After The Prom

Prom night came to an end. Since I didn't attend last year, I didn't know what to expect. I actually expected the place to be bigger and brighter and it came out the opposite. I couldn't determine if the prom was better or not compared to how I expected it to be. Maybe it would be better if I didn't spend my time sitting around. *Sigh* that prom was too much of a hassle. My parents wanted me to style my hair and to look my best. (Not that the result was any different compared to how I normally look)

Now that the prom's over, the only problem left is my chinese graduation song. I memorized up to the third stanza. I actually planned to memorize up to the fourth stanza... Well that's me. Oh well, everything would probably turn out well. Catch ya later ^^

My Vacation

My Vacation

After a long time of torture, the final exams are finally over. Because of the cancellation of classes on Friday and Monday, the Exams are moved to the next day. The exam on Friday, Computer, was moved to Thursday of the exam week for major subjects. After some time of waiting, Friday finally came to an end. I planned on spending the break by playing computer (as expected of me).

However, things didn't go out as planned I suddenly had a bad case of sore throat (on the last day of exam can you imagine!?). Until now, I'm still suffering from the illness. It seems better than yesterday though (I got a fever yesterday). I just wish this illness won't last long so that I could enjoy my break.

If you think I got a long time for my break, you're wrong. I still have practice for Graduation on March 13 onwards. In fact, I have a chinese song to memorize this week. I can't memorize while I'm sick so I still haven't began memorizing.

Oh well, that's it for now! ^^ Catch ya later!

No Classes?

NO CLASSES

The two little words that can make a student a happy clam. A class-less Friday means three days of tranquility for most students. Unfortunately, this class-less Friday is a bad news for me and some of my classmates (I think).

Am I nuts, you ask? Maybe... This week has been a hard week for me. There were too many homeworks and scrapbooks to do. It seemed like forever 'til Thursday came. Friday is the rest weekday for me and my friends (see post below). But not this time... Like I said in the post below (see post below), I had too much homeworks to do. In fact, due to the lack of time, I placed the same things in the scrapbooks I had to do so I won't need to think much. I also reprinted my English and Filipino assignments. And thirty minutes 'til bedtime, I did Misha's scrapbook (I forgot to do it earlier). I even studied for computer (I never thought that will happen). And when Friday came, our maid went up and told us that there's no classes.

Sigh, it was enough to make me go nuts (okay, I didn't! So what? The point still remains). Now, the only problem is "What would happen to our Computer exam? Would it be during next week?" -_-

Oh well, that's it for now! ^^ Catch ya later!

One Day To Go

ONE DAY TO GO

Finally, Thursday is over. Friday always seemed like the calm after the storm for me since the subjects on that day requires less studying. Aside from Chinese, I like all the subjects that day. Unfortunately, I can't say that I'm relaxed right now... Why? I got a new scrapbook to do (Actually two, but I did the other one in school). I also found out that I have two things to print, my English Thesis and Filipino Pagsusuri. Then, I have to study for Computer later (Or maybe tomorrow... procastination rulez!). Computer used to be my subject for fun, but the last test made it seem suicide to take the exam lightly.

Oooh... My head also hurts from the brain squeezer Mr. Franco gave us awhile ago (Even John had a hard time). The truth is I'm not supposed to have time to compose this post. But I felt that I should do it while I'm in the mood (Pang relax ko na rin 'to ^^). Oh well, catch ya later ^^

A Break From It All

A BREAK FROM IT ALL

Finally, a few days of rest. Okay, so not really rest, but I'm finally having a break from the continuous flow of homeworks given to me by both my teachers and classmates(the scrapbooks ^^). Those problems are the following:
1. Music- the band
2. P.E.- the dance
3. English- the speech
4. Economics- the wierd idontknowwhatfor homework
5. More English- the thesis defense
6. Art- the book
7. Scrapbooks- the darn
8-idunnowhatnumber. etc.- the others

Right now, I have about... 1,2,3 oh 4 scrapbooks to do. -_- I should have made the deadline Friday...

It is also the last day we get taught by Mrs. Merida and Mr. Ching. They both made quite a speech awhile ago ^^.

Anyway, just in case someone reads this blog, the title will be related to later posts. Well I think it will, since I've been experiencing hardships recently and thought about making a blog for them. Right now, I'm in relaxation mode so I have no problems to post. ^^ Catch ya later!
