Come away come away!
"Feeling that Peter was on his way back, the Neverland had again woke into life. We ought to use the pluperfect and say wakened, but woke is better and was always used by Peter.
In his absence things are usually quiet on the island. The fairies take an hour longer in the morning, the beasts attend to their young, the redskins feed heavily for six days and nights, and when pirates and the lost boys meet they merely bite their thumbs at each other. But with the coming of Peter, who hates lethargy, they are under way again: if you put your ear to the ground now, you would hear the whole island seething with life."
--Peter Pan, J.M. Barrie

Rockestra in a word. SUPER. aside also from its being astig.
Sugarfree's Tulog Na and Burnout were especially touching. I actually wept. Chos.
And of course we have to give the Manila Symphony Orchestra "sum representation y'all!" that coming from Raimund Marasigan of Sandwich. I don't have a technical know-how of the string, bass arrangements or what have you of an orchestra, much more fused with metal, but i sure can tell the concert was full force, sending my spirits way, way, way above the audience's holler to Sandwich's "Humanda Ka."

Never Saw Blue Like That
Today we took a walk up the street
And picked a flower and climbed the hill
Above the lake
And secret thoughts were said aloud
We watched the faces in the clouds
Until the clouds had blown away
And were we ever somewhere else
You know, it's hard to say
And I never saw blue like that before
Across the sky
Around the world
You've given me all you have and more
And no one else has ever shown me how
To see the world the way I see it now
Oh, I, I never saw blue like that
I can't believe a month ago
I was alone, I didn't know you
I hadn't seen or heard you're name
And even now, I'm so amazed
It's like a dream, It's like a rainbow, it's like the rain
And somethings are the way they are
And words just can't explain
Cause I never saw blue like that before
Across the sky
Around the world
You've given me all you have and more
And no one else has ever shown me how
To see the world the way I see it now
Oh, I, I never saw blue like that before
And it feels like now,
And it feels always,
And it feels like coming home
I never saw blue like that before
Across the sky
Around the world
You've given me all you have and more
And no one else has ever shown me how
To see the world the way I see it now
Oh, I, I never saw blue like that before

DR sends a lot of spam messages, some are totally hilarious, some are just downright annoying.
On really hard days I've thought about replying to one of these spams, asking to be removed from their mailing list. But out of the pureness of my heart, i'd rather not flaunt my ka-malditahan online, but directly mailing the person who sent the spam remains a palatable option.
And it suddenly hit me. Everyone who's "replied to all" asking to be removed from the list or simply to join the bandwagon of ballyhooing their own versions of the "beatitudes" are in actuality crowding our mailboxes as well. Or has that concept eluded them?
I'm still all sugar and spice and everything nice.
Smile.

i don't feel so well today
I think i'm getting sick of dealing with every caller's problems. I feel so dumb not being able to help them out. What is a coupon? How do i get one? Why are the rates different online? Why does Payless keeps f*ckin up? Why can't I pick it up in an airport and drop it off at a certain address? Iwant two double beds two double beds!
I think im getting sick of my conversion, which, for the last four days has been a staggering average of 29-point-something (target is 30%).
I feel really nauseaus now im ready to puke. Just this morning i forgot to press "Lunch" for my lunch. I had 4 unanswered calls. Will i tell my sup?????
I think i'm getting sick of this certain person who constantly manages to piss me off. (to him--well well well yourself pervie!) I think im getting sick of not having my friends from zamboanga and davao visit me over. i miss the good ol' clean fun we had before.
Im getting sick of moving out and moving in and shelling out cash for something i would not even own one day. Im getting sick of not being able to eat triple choco from country style for like ages. Im sick of my procrastination. I always wonder if rj ever really misses me or not. Its sickening.

'adik sayo'
awit sa akin
nilang sawa na saking
mga kwentong marathon
tungkol sayo at sa ligayang
iyong hatid sa aking buhay
tuloy ang bida sa isipan
ko'y ikaw......
sa umaga't sa gabi
sa bawat minutong lumilipas
hinahanap-hanap kita
hinahanap-hanap kita
sa isip at panaginip
bawat pagpihit ng tadhana
hinahanap-hanap kita....
sabik sayo, kahit maghapon
na tayo'y magkasama
parang telesine
ang ating ending
hatid sa bahay nyo
sabay goodnight
sabay may kiss
sabay bye-bye...
pilit ko mang ika'y limutin
lagi kong natatagpuan
ang iyong tinig at awitin
tuwing sasapit ang ulan
ang ating pinagsamahan
mukha yatang limot na
nung puso mong biglang lumisan
at may kapiling ng iba
sa umaga't sa gabi
sa bawat minutong lumilipas
hinahanap-hanap kita
hinahanap-hanap kita
sa isip at panaginip
bawat pagpihit ng tadhana sa school,
sa flag ceremony
hanngang uwian araw araw
hinahanap-hanap kita
hinahanap-hanap kita
at kahit na magka-anak kayo
magkatuluyan balang araw
hanaphanapin ka
hanaphanapin ka
 

for when i was allegorically in skirts of dried leaves and you in your, well, usual clothes, there was an undercurrent fascination of sorts, but i can never really be sure. i could have just probably imagined it, men are hard to read. or, i really just suck. i am sure though that he was pretty fond of me and i was the happiest girl on the planet.i hope he reads this. can anyone please tell him to read this? thanks.
i liked him that's why. and i trusted my giddiness whenever he hugged or kissed me on the forehead. he was a friend and i was comfortable with that. couldn't ask for more. there couldn't be anything more ha-ha! but i was a naughty naughty girl. i bit more than i could swallow. *eherm* figuratively of course. *wink wink* he took a bite as well. hahaha! elevation, 22/06/05. and we were expelled from paradise forevermore.
innocence, or something like it, had been bliss. i wasn't hurt, but i terribly, terribly miss him.

The heaviest of burdens crushes us, we sink beneath it, it pins us to the ground. But in the love poetry of every age, the woman longs to be weighed down by the man's body. The heaviest of burdens is therefore simultaneously an image of life's most intense fulfillment. The heavier the burden, the closer our lives come to the earth, the more real and truthful they become.
-The Unbearable Lightness of Being, Milan Kundera
