<div class="MsoNormal">
You heard the bells,</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And soon</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Your tiny hands and tiny chin</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Met the ground</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And then you said,</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Words beyond your grasp</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Uttered in generations and</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Generations passed</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Echoes in the city</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Echoes of words</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
You cannot grasp</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Your tiny lips</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
That makes your sky wide smile</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
You whisper words you cannot grasp</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Then a sound</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
More of a roar</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Much louder than the bells</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The booms and blasts,</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And bellows heard throughout</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
You cannot grasp</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And soon the air</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Is thin, so thin</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
You cannot breathe</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Your lungs they burn</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A colored
dream </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Of red
and ash</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But you’re wide awake</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
You’re
standing there</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
You wail</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
You cry</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Your eyes are swollen</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Those big blue piercing eyes</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Are bloodshot now</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And one by one</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
No, by tens perhaps</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Bodies drop</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On dirt
and dust</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And as you twitch</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And lie with them </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Those you played with</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On rare calm morns</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Their tiny hand you held</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Their tiny lips you sang with</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
You twitched</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And twitched</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And twitched with them</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As if a
dance</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And when the pain</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Cannot be bore</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When you cry </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But with tears no more</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The air
escaped one final time</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
You cannot
hear the wails, you cannot feel the sore</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
You cannot hear no more</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The words you cannot grasp</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And they who killed you</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
They’ll fall on ground again</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And say the words you haven’t grasped</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
They
have heard those words too much perhaps</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But they
did not want to really grasped</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p><br /></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p><br /></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Your blood was the price</div>
<br />
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Of blood owed by generations
passed</div>

I am a curly haired boy</div>

He has straight hair that the wind loves to comb thru</div>

I am stout</div>

I know it</div>

You like the boy</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I saw it</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I watched</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But
not too long</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Just enough to see</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
the way you gaze at his fresh young body,</div>

You touch him a bit too long</div>

You look at him a bit too earnest</div>

And it’s fine, I’m
fine</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 1.0in; text-indent: .5in;">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Fine: an old linen aging, browning, and turning in to rag</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
At
the slightest useful</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Fine: a wall thawing from winter’s cloak, cracking silently,
unnoticeably</div>

Still
stable</div>

I’m fine</div>

From the trenches of a cliff inside my chest,</div>

I exhaled,</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It echoed perhaps prayed,</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
“He’ll come home with me”</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;"> Poems and prose, limericks and
sonnets<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;"> Of passion, of jealousy,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;"> Of

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;"> Of sweet-nothings, of

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;">He wants to write
more<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;">The mist was thick
and the pavement, wet<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;"> yes, wet with their liquids<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;">The pavements won’t remember<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;">That they were who they were<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;">But he would,<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;"> Every step he’ll make,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;"> On the same wet pavement,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;"> On a day overpowered by
mist,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;">But the storm is

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;">He never knew. They

<i><span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;">He </span></i><span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;">was the one to make a final blow<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;"> It would scar him<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;">And, he can never

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;"> The space between <i>his</i> face and the glass was a few inches<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Angsana New","serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;"> His face was on the

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 3pt;">

<br />
<br />
At daybreak, you became cold<br />
<br />
Your warmth vanished like darkness at dawn<br />
I was left longing for the guy who was seating beside me<br />
Last night<br />
<br />
<br />
Today,<br />
Your eyes weren't meeting mine<br />
You were silent<br />
<br />
Our silence<br />
Widens this 3 inch space between us<br />
As I stood there<br />
Trying to break this distance<br />
<br />
Wordless cruelty, inaudible cries<br />
<br />
I cant bear it<br />
<br />
So, I asked<br />
“Do you still want to be with me”<br />
<br />
Gazing at the ground<br />
Not looking for anything<br />
You said<br />
“No”<br />
<br />
Last night, you held my hand<br />
And you kissed me<br />
Under the naked night sky<br />
<br />
And you told me,<br />
You did.<br />
<br />
You loved me.Danhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03414900937435126209noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1089815465798225567.post-48385349962793844942013-01-05T00:03:00.003-08:002013-01-05T00:03:36.427-08:00Work related stuff<br />

I’m always told that my looks is not my greatest asset. I
agree… Even my mom told me so in a conversation after watching late night TV. I’ve
asked, “Mom, I’m handsome, right?” She replied nonchalantly “Don’t worry, dear…
You’re smart anyway.” OUCH >_<</div>

I’ve gotten a new job in a call center somewhere in QC. I’ve
fancied this boy here. </div>

I met him during my interview for the same company. I didn’t
think that we would be in the same account. He’s well mannered, cultured,
fluent in English (well he came from a school notorious for being wersh-wersh
if you know what I mean). On top of that… He’s hot, chinito with a flawless
skin and did I mention soooo hot?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He was one of my call training buddy (someone you observe
while he takes calls). I was flustered sitting beside him (wishing I’m seating
on him… hehe). He made my day and every time I see him it’s like all the stress
floats away.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Cutting the story short. He’s straight and recently had this
a girlfriend who’s in the same team with him. So faggots zero – girls one
point.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
I was so interested in him that time that one else compares.
Then there was this guy we’ll call Z. </div>

He’s chinito, cute, fun to talk with and
has a great sense of humor. Z is my smoking buddy. And ever since I’ve started
smoking, I realized that nicer conversation arise when you have something to
puff on. We became close. But I’m not really eyeing on Z since he’s also
straight. I consider him one of my barkada boys.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He went to work one morning not being his normal self. He’s
a bit quiet that morning. After work, he was looking for something to do. I
told him that we can go to my place, drink and swim at the pool. He said it’s
ok.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We bought 1 litre of Soju and since we were only the one
drinking, we we’re drunk by the time we finished it. In the middle of drinking, he told me his insecurities, his sadness. Z let me in and introduced me to the
little boy inside him.Gave him some things to think about on how to approach his problems (primarily Wittgenstein's doctrines, Berkeley's esse est percipi, Bentham's utilitarianism and other philosophical doctrines that I am interested on)</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We took a swim for a few minutes just to sober up a bit and that's how I realized the his lean with chiseled abs.
We went back to the condo for shower; we did it together with only our briefs
on. Haha</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
After that, he was drying up and was removing his briefs.
Then his phone rang. He answered it with nothing on but the towel he was
holding between his legs knowing that I’m looking at his abs. I guess that was
my go signal. Teased him a bit. And just like spaghetti in hot water, the
straight boy bent. Let’s just say he was a treat, a big treat. Haha (faggots 1 - girls 1)</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The great thing about Z is that we weren’t awkward with each
other at all after that. We were still smoking buddies, jokes around during
break time and have clean drinking sessions every now and then. Though,
recently he had a girlfriend. But that didn’t stop things from happening but
that’s a different story (faggots 2 - girls 1hehe).</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
What was memorable is this…</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
After doing the deed with Z, he said as I smelled alcohol in
his breath, “You know it’s not your looks, it’s your mind that’s just… you know…
like … wow”.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I guess my mom had it right. haha</div>

It dawned on me. The essential difference between commitment
and ownership in relationships is this. Commitment is a covenant to the self
that one will honor the terms of the relationship. The sacrifices, time and
effort one will willingly invest for that relationship to prosper is commitment.
Ownership is asking someone to invest or sacrifice his time, effort or at times
dreams for the relationship.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span></span>Commitment
in a relationship should come voluntarily from a person to give and take for
the benefit of the relationship. He should be willing to reply to messages, and
set aside time from his busy schedule for the relationship. It is a conscious
effort of oneself that he does with happiness and freedom.</div>

<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"></span>Ownership
is asking someone to “honor their commitment” in terms that is acceptable for
themselves. It is asking their partners to reply at every “Good Morning”, “Where
are you”, “Have you had lunch” text messages that they sent. Ownership is
expressed in a way that it holds the relationship as a ransom or implying that
if he won’t do it, then he doesn’t love her anymore. </div>

Love is not godlike visage that turns head on a busy street</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It is his unadorned face while he sleeps soundly</div>

Dreaming, fleeing from this earth</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

Love is not the smile that weakens the knees</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It is his wisdom that gets me thru my mess</div>

Love is not what is seen;</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It is what is not.</div>

It's been raining all throughout the week. This gave me a chance to watch LOTR extended trilogy...<br />
I found this gem in Youtube....Danhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03414900937435126209noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1089815465798225567.post-24949941516782087522012-07-17T05:10:00.002-07:002012-07-17T05:37:05.822-07:00Fiction: Eli and Abel<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
With a final thrust, he released shots of white fluid of
ecstasy.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Room was dimly light just enough to see the outline of
their faces.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Both grasping for their breath, Eli rested his head on Abel’s
chest. Their hearts that were pounding by a fast beat had slowly calmed and
they caught their breath.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Abel was playing fondly with his lover’s hair. Eli took a
deep breath and asked, “Is Lisa picking you up at the airport tomorrow?”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Yes, she said the kids might come along. I said there’s no
need.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Eli stared at their shoes lying around the floor. They were all
over the place with no pair beside one another. He inhaled.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Does she know?”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“All she knows is that I’m with my best man.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I guess that’s a bit accurate.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
They smiled and they embraced each other more tightly.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The AC humming was the only sound that filled the air.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Are you happy with these? Is this how far that we can go?”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I have obligations.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Eli sighed then said, “Read to me… like you used to.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>

It has already been two years since I met Joel. Time as we know changes things and in two years a lot can happen with people.<br />
<br />
People change on their own phase. We reach goals and start new one. We create then destroy. Inside of our flesh is a universe where we reconcile disarrays in our lives. And at times, even we don't realize how much we have changed in such a short time.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Lately, we have a lot of disagreements and emotional outbursts that we try to reconcile. And it made me wonder at times why we're having these arguments frequently now after we've already been with each other for two years. I've realized that that was exactly the reason: Time. You are no longer the person I've known two years ago. You've changed.<br />
<br />
Somehow as a relationship lasts, complacency surfaces. The feeling of being at ease with someone so familiar makes people overlook changes that happen with the same person they love. As time moves on and these new things start to pile, you realize that you don't know the person you've been with for so long and you yearn to find that same guy you've first met. And that is where problems start.<br />
<br />
People change. You've changed and I must also know that so did I. We must learn to accept those changes and we must work harder with more patience so we can make this relationship lasts. I will regret losing you not because we've already been together for 2 years but because we could grow for the better in years to come.<br />

<br />
Every time we reconcile our disagreements, it is like the sweet scent a storm leaves on dry earth that makes the ground fertile for life to grow. After every rain in our days, we grow together yet I must remember we also grow as individuals. <br />
<br />
<br />
Happy 2nd Anniversary.<br />

is an ode to Love. They have an affair like 2 people walking at the same path

Every great man who has written great poems had encountered
Love and had offered their words for Love. Though they have passed and had left
this earth, their odes had been forever treasured by Love who was capricious
and had wanted to hear her lover’s promises ad infinitum.</div>

Love and Poetry cannot wed. For Love in itself exist in Forever,
so does Poetry but only when he is alone. Being with Love will consume Poetry

Found this great song in youtube...<br />
along with this poem from the past. This was dedicated to L and J<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Hindi na....<br />
<br />
Hindi na kita iniisip bawat minuto<br />
Hindi na ko na tinitingnan ang Friendster mo twing mag bubukas ako ng net<br />
Hindi na kita tinetext<br />
Hindi na pumapasok ang pangalan mo sa isip ko kapag nanonood ako ng Romance<br />
<br />
Hindi na.<br />
<br />
Tapos na...<br />
<br />
Tapos na yung scrapbook natin na sinimulan natin dalawa pero tinapos kong mag isa<br />
Tapos na rin ako sa pagliligpit ng mga pictures natin<br />
Tapos na rin akong mag delete ng pictures natin sa cellphone ko<br />
Tapos na yung RPG Game na niregalo mo sakin kahit hindi ko gusto pinilit kong laruin<br />
<br />
Tapos na.<br />
<br />
Wala na...<br />
<br />
Wala ng nag-gu-good night sa ken<br />
Wala na ring nagsasabi na hindi pantay ang tenga ko<br />
Wala ng sumisigaw sakin sa telepono para gumising ako ng maaga<br />
Wala ng ooder ng Burger Steak na double rice pag pumunta ako ng Jollibee<br />
<br />
Wala na.<br />
<br />
Ikaw ang Mundo. Ikaw ang Araw<br />
Ikaw ang Umaga at ang Gabi<br />
Ikaw ang Hangin sa lilim ng Puno ng Sumpaan<br />
Ikaw ang Liwanag. Ikaw ang Dilim<br />
Ikaw ang Luha at ang Ngiti<br />
<br />
Ikaw...<br />
Pero<br />
<br />
Hindi na<br />
Tapos na<br />
Wala na<br />
<br />
Dalawang bagay na lang.<br />
<br />
Sana...<br />
Sana...<br />
<br />
Hindi na kita isipin bago matulog<br />
Hindi na kita hanapin sa paggising<br />

Let the words bleed out from this soul again<br />
<br />
The whisper of a gentle breeze from a fan in a hot summer day is heard from a corner of this room. I am untangling the thoughts that bind me restless. Question of why is piling over the questions of how.<br />
This existence is like a dying incandescent bulb in the middle of a stark black night. A drop of hope is spilt on all things rhetoric. The cycle of life becomes life itself and the man who was once a boy is caving in for all the things he would like to undo. Perhaps the boy knew more than the man.<br />
<br />
As I wish my soul goodnight I asked of how this soul should be in the morning. But the question of why be there when the sun greet this concrete world is keeping me from sleeping.<br />
<br />
The innocence of youth, the idealism that once have given one a reason to move forward is now left far from the path towards conformity. Somehow getting somewhere is not so far from going nowhere. Is this really the dream I had?<br />
<br />
Tears that warm my cheek and the short breaths diminish this man yet a boy is wishing to play with sand and water to build his castle on the beach again. The man told the boy that the castle will be washed away by waves and the boy replied, “It will forever be in my heart”. “Why are you crying?” asked the boy. “Coz you are a dead” said the man “and that castle is now a made of concrete in the midst of a city”.<br />
<br />
He wept and the boy smiled. Coz he remembered him one more time.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
Never quit.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
That is one lesson I’ve learned in my life. And being able to learn it was one hell of a task.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Things would always screw up and you are supposed to deal with it. Not always fix it, but deal with it.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Before going to college in UP, I took a stroll with my mom inside the campus. While walking with her, I promised that one day I’ll graduate with the Highest Honors. Magna cum laude was the dream. Being 16 back then, I never could have imagined what could hit me.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
My dad decided to not work anymore for no particular reason.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
My mom’s company where she worked for almost 10 years closed down.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
They decided they don’t want to be together anymore.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
My mom and my sisters were evicted from our apartment we were renting for 10 years.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I am struggling with college. We had no money and I am studying thanks to debts.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It tore me apart. I was 16 back then and I was torn to pieces. Shredded</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I remember the coming to my professors begging if I can submit a hand written paper coz I don’t have money for computer renting or printing. I tried to avoid meeting my landlord as much as possible. I was buried in debts. My friend had always been there for me. God in particular was the only thing I had left with me. I remember buying dinner for P5 and hoping something comes up the next day coz there won’t be anything left for any meal. I ate the most memorable meal in my life that day: half a cup of rice worth P4 that comes with Tinola soup that I’ve asked from the cafeteria for free, 1 pack of crispy Patata worth P1 and a lot of tap water. And thru all those times, God never left me.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
At any rate, I could’ve quit. I could’ve done what my dad did and go back to my province. I could’ve said enough. I could’ve ended everything back then. But there was just something in me that said I can make it. I can get out of that hell hole. But I knew I needed to compromise and let go some of my dreams, some pieces of my soul.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I started taking in all the jobs I can get a hold of: English Tutor, Physics Tutor, Math Tutor for Korean, Japanese and Rich Filipino Kids, Speech Choir Trainer, Chamber Theater Director-trainer, Book lay out editor, Entrepreneur, Architectural CAD operator, Portrait Artist, part-time Industrial Factory designer, and finally a call boy in a company called Accenture. I became what the wind asked me to be. What came at hand is the job that needs to be finished. From being a 200lbs kid after HS graduation, I went home to my mom after 6 mos weighing 161lbs. My mom was in tears when she saw me. I was teary eyed too coz I understood why. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Life was hard, no excruciating. But I still am here, I can breathe, I can move. So I will make means for me to live.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now I am 2 years delayed for graduation but that didn’t discourage me. In my whole stay in UP, I am perhaps the only student in the college who had inspired numerous students here and abroad that they can do anything if they put their hearts to it, made a living out of selling chocolates and charcoal sketches, was an unknown lay-out artist for an AIM journal, was part of a design team for a 200M pesos factory in Subic Bay, was in the design team for the landscaping of Alabang Town Center, was able to design an oven for drying painted handle rods for LV bags, and so much more. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I lost my pride in all those jobs. I succumb to so many people in my life young, old and stupid people. But I gained something so much more, wisdom and courage as they say it. Not because I was perfect or a genius or ambitious, but simply because I didn’t quit. I am who I am because I never quit.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And now in my last 3 semesters in college, I will raise the bar because I don’t quit. Not till there is breathe in me.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Because quitters are not losers… they’re dead.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">Nasabi ko na dati. Pangarap ko talagang maging gwapo. To have that appeal that can soothe any soul with just a smile. ‘Till now I’m still trying to reach that dream. Gym. Hygiene. Diet (most of the time I cheat.. tsk tsk tsk). I’m doing everything but I still don’t feel beautiful.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">People start to notice changes in my body. Guys in PR start to respond to my messages. Friends start commenting in FB Photos. But I still find my body flawed, ugly and unattractive. The insecurities of youth still haven’t left me although people say I think maturely…</div><div class="MsoNormal">Perhaps now is the time to drop it. Now is the time to realize that there is a disparity with what I want and who I am.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">I saw a caterpillar engorging and, fattening himself. It prepares to hide in his cocoon then reveal himself to be a butterfly. It will eat relentlessly no matter how disgusting it looks to see such a small creature consume so much. It won’t care that he is vulnerable to the world as he tries to prepare for his first flight. And then, I wondered what if that caterpillar wanted to be a fish. It won’t eat leaves ‘coz fishes don’t do that. It won’t hide in its cocoon and would dream to swim. It will live its whole life dreaming a life he was not destined to be. He will dream of seas and oceans. He will dream to bathe in water under the sun. Such a beautiful dream, but that’s all there is to it. The caterpillar won’t become what he is supposed to be neither will it be what it dreams to be. It won’t see his own beauty because he is blinded by his desire.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Why would the sea dream to be the sky when it is magnificent in itself?</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Hindi ako gwapo. I can never make people’s head turn as I stroll in malls or streets. Hindi ako ang mga bagay na ninanais ko na sana ay naging ako na lang. Dapat kong marealize… that desiring to be someone else will only lead me to a tragic life. A gay guy like me should know the value of living a truthful life. I should not live a life that is not my own. I should not lie to myself that I can be someone that I am not. I should know who I am and build my life from there. </div><div class="MsoNormal">I should not dream to be gwapo or macho or maapeal ‘coz I am already beautiful. “I am” is what I all have and it is enough and beautiful.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Then, I remembered AJ telling us… “You are beautiful”</div><div class="MsoNormal">And now, I promise that I won’t think that I’m hideous anymore and I will never aspire to be anybody else but myself…. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Thanks AJ… you reminded me one last lesson … Goodbye friend…</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

</div><div>I know it had been hard for you lately. You might not notice it but every time you stare blankly into space, I know you're not ok. But you know its was half your fault. You fell in love with the wrong person and you fought for him even when he was pushing you away.</div><div><br />
</div><div>You had reflected on what he believes in so you would understand why you and him isn't so. But had he reflected upon your beliefs, your wants or your needs? Has he really or had you just grew too familiar that days without you beside him won't be the same-being afraid of losing you yet not really knowing where you fit in his life? Were you his victim? An innocent boy toyed around?</div><div><br />
</div><div>No</div><div><br />
</div><div>You were also half responsible for everything. You stayed when you could've walked away. You hoped when you knew it's time to give up. You took the tears and kept it to yourself when you should have screamed and called it quit. And now your in it too deep that it hurts too much to let him go.</div><div><br />
</div><div>We are young my friend. And we are easily blinded with emotions and frustrations. We fight for thing that already gave up on us. We wait when they say they are not coming. We hope that we get that fairy tale ending in the end. But that's not life, cause in reality life sucks. Shit happens and the world make it to throw it at you. And don't just sit there and wait for it to hit you HOPING that it won't.</div><div><br />
</div><div>When he says "I love you" you know he meant it in a totally different way that compared to how you conceived that phrase to be meant but you respond that you love him too- lying to yourself perhaps he really does understand you.</div><div><br />
</div><div>Enough my friend. There is so much in you. So much in you that's waiting to explode. Enough of the compromises, and the repression. You need to break free and make something of yourself. You need to be happy in the way that you want to be happy. You have very little control over the way things in this world unfold but at least you have control over your heart- make sure you that advantage of that. you'll find someone who love you the way you want him to love you... Enough of this shit, get your life back.</div><div><br />
</div><div>"You gotta to go after the things you want when you're still in your prime</div><div>cause there's a fine fine line between love and a waste of time"</div><div><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Lately, I'm occupied with either work or school. Pumapasok at nagdaraan lang ang bawat linggo ng hindi ko namaalayan.<br />
<br />
Lately, hindi na ko nagugutom ng over. Nakakakain na ako ng tama. Hindi na ko nagskip ng meals dahil wala akong pambili.<br />
<br />
Lately, puyat ako lagi. Laging 5-6 hours lang ang tulog minsan nga installments pa. 3 hours sa umaga 2 hours sa hapon. Ang hirap kasi mag Callboy (cal cen-er like you know) sa gabi, tas student sa umaga.<br />
<br />
Lately, pakiramdam ko pumupurol ang utak ko. I hadn't been reading any books or blogs.<br />
<br />
Lately, I'm being consumed by my routine. Kailangan ko ng idefine kung bakit ko uli ginagwa ang mga bagay na ginagawa ko.<br />
<br />
Lately, hindi na ko hayok sa sex. Masaya na ko sa palad ko at sa erotica o kaya sa 20+ porn videos. na naka-save sa cellphone. Pero dahil araw araw rin akong nag-e-MRT e minsan hindi maiiwasan na my makilala ka... kaso nga lang minsan late ako.. hindi na makapag-hunt...<br />
<br />
Lately, napansin ko din na I'm losing contact with my friends and family. Mas madalas ko pa makita yung Janitor na assigned sa 17th floor (e nasa 20th floor yung offices namin) kesa sa Nanay ko. Cute naman kasi yung Janitor <LANDE><br />
<br />
Lately, nababagot ako sa Architecture subjects. Hindi ko na talaga makita yung sense kung bakit ako nag-aaral ng Arkitektura. Buti na lang my nahanap ako libro na balak kong basahin. Isang libro na ukol sa Philosophy at Architecture. I guess mas intrigued ako sa Philosophy part. But yeah<br />
<br />
Lately, pumapayat ako, Mula 171 lbs nung April.161 lbs na lang ako. Nagkaka-braso na rin kahit papano. Pano na-a-adict ata ako mag buhat ng bakal... next target ko lumiit yun tyan at kahit papano makita yung adonis belt.<br />
<br />
Lately, mas minamahal kita. Kasi the more I become independent and the more I feel that I can live without you, the more I yearn to be with you... simply because I love you.<br />
<br />
Lately, gusto kong gumawa ng bagay na maganda kaso wala akong time. Maraming inspiration that will usually fleet away. I can't seem to encapsulate the great ideas that comes to me. Ewan ko ba.<br />
<br />
Lately... hay inaantok na ko... Early lunch with Hon then Borlogs muna.<br />
<br />
Lately, kelangan ko muling bumalik sa pamimilosopiyaDanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03414900937435126209noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1089815465798225567.post-67959128490894267562011-07-11T19:42:00.000-07:002011-07-11T19:42:55.559-07:00Paglipas, paglaonsa pagligamgam ng minsang kumukulong pagsinta<br />

<br />
<br />
Noong high school ako… pnagpantasyahan ko yung best friend ko. AUsually sya yung theme ng fantasies ko kapag mag-jajack off... And I know he’s straight so I’ve never considered it to become real.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">5 years later… That fantasy came true… well somehow….</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">It was a rainy afternoon. Just one more train station, and I’m coming down to go to the office. I’m actually running late. Then he got on the train. Our eyes met. And They refused to break the trance. Sabi ko sa sarili ko “bakit ngayon ka lang sumakay! Baba na ko eh!” </div><div class="MsoNormal">A towering 6’1, with dorky glasses and that straight black hair that I find really attractive he caught my attention just as the other gay guys on the train. BUT BUT I am going dow on the next station! Boni Staton na! Bakit kasi sa Shaw Boulevard ka lang sumakay…. Hay.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Then Tumatabi ako sa kanya. He still is looking at me. I am looking at him… Teka…</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Then the door opens. Isang napakalalim na buntonghininga. HAAAAAYYY</div><div class="MsoNormal">He also stepped down on the same station. WAHHH and he is still looking WAHHHHH. Now my heart’s racing…</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">HONG GWOPO KO NOMON (talagang ako ang focus eh ano)</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">I’ll do this. I’ll get his number… parang sabi nga ni Dalumat, grace him with your presence wag ka nang mahiya. Haha ganun na lang inisip ko para maglakas loob. Lumapit ako. Tumitingin sya pero naglalakad sya diretso pababa.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">“Pwede makuha number mo?” (ako)</div><div class="MsoNormal">“Baket?”<br />
“Wala lang…” (ako)</div><div class="MsoNormal">“Teka sunod ka muna sa kin”</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Nareject ba ako? TEKA LATE NA KO! Pero kasi Ansarap nya e if ever! Sige na nga sunod na lang… TEKA baka holdaper to. Pero anlaki ng katawan ko compared to him. Kaya ko sya… at pwede rin akong tumili.. saka pag after 5 mins wala pa alis na lang ako.. LATE na ko eh.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Then bumaba sya sa stairs then lumiko sa MCDO sa Boni Avenue. Ayun… Diretso sa CR. ALAM NA hahahaha</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">“Uhmm medyo late na kasi ako. Anung number mo?” (ako)</div><div class="MsoNormal">“Teka lang pa-late ka na”</div><div class="MsoNormal">“E… ano e”</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Sabay kuha ng kamay ko at pinatong sa already hard na tootut nya… infurness… na convinced akong magpalate! Hahahaha</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">“Teka” Sabay bukas ng pinto ng cubicle.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Ayun na MOMOX (Make Out Make Out Xtreme). At syempre I’m already on my toes dahil 5’9 lang ako at sya ay 6’1. Anlabot ng labi pota.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">“Palabas tayo. May tissue naman”</div><div class="MsoNormal">Then you know what happened next...</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">In the end, Got his number…. AT HINDI AKO NA LATE!</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
