teambuilding

i miss my laptop, sun signal, dsl, phone, tv, cable and aircon!!!

after a long weekend at frontier ranch, tanay, rizal... i have realized all the things and people that i have taken for granted! you can say that it was some kind of spiritual opening for me too! ok, our teambuilding was full of fun and so tiresome!!! we hiked for 2 hours and then went rapelling in the afternoon, then our team activities and bonfire under the full moon until 12 midnight... and that was only for yesterday! the day before was somewhat tiring because of the trip... we got lost and ended up on the other mountain!!! so, here are some nature pics that i have taken from our first morning, hiking, my rapelling experience and our last sunset there :D

baba ng clouds sa valley... bad news, nasa taas kami!!!


carpet of snow...

pretty flowers... pero mabaho!

close up nung carpet of snow... blood suckers!

after two mountains later...

senti ba?

dapat may flag! history breaker yan noh! first kami sa tuktok!

going down the mountains...


my rapelling experience... fun!


you can never see a sunset this pretty in a picture

forget

how can you forget an anniversary? the most memorable moment? the most unforgettable smile? your first kiss? your first love? or even something that you put your heart into? or the simplest hello from a friend? or maybe something you did that required you to gather all your guts...

in life, that's one thing in life that i need to lie about... i never forget. even though there are somethings that i don't intend to remember, i remember them... even a birthday of someone i never really liked, it's still here in my mind. i don't even know why... maybe there are just somethings in life that isn't fair... that are just meant to continue on hurting you and leaving you in pain for the rest of your life... making it painstaking and miserable to live on. how can we forget them? how can i learn how to forget things that i really want to forget?

i was told that looking for a hobby gets your mind off things... i got lots of hobbies! but then, when i'm engaged in something, the more my mind goes running back to that something that i want to forget? i engaged in various activities and became active in night outs... but then, the moment i open my mouth to speak, nothing comes out but the one i want to forget... or maybe i would keep silent about that something but deep inside my head, there it is... running around and not letting me live my life as i want to. i know i have total control of my life, my body and my decisions... but this i ask... do we have total control of our brains and our emotions? i'm not really sure what to answer if i will be the one being asked. maybe i would say that we have because we do want we want... that's why the total control of our brains... and as for the emotions, we laugh when we want to and stop when we want to. easy right? wrong... why is that? because we don't have control over our brains when we go to sleep... when we dream about stuff or anything else... we don't have control over our emotions, because when something happens and we don't really want it to happen or we just can't simply face the facts, even though we don't want to cry... we tend to cry.

1 philosophy i want to believe in... "to see is to believe." what i don't see, i will not believe that it even exists. one example? the most annoying and confusing emotion there is, love. i'm not even sure if it exists. first of all, you can't see it, you can't hear it, you can't smell it nor can you touch it. how can you say you're in love? how could you even say that you know the feeling of being in love when your five senses can't even sense it? what? intuition? intuition or instincts can be mistaken... because it is something you just tend to believe but not really analyze it and take it to careful considerations... it is simply a hunch... something unreal, something you just thought of, the first thing that popped into your mind.

back to forgetting... i was also told not to think about it... the question is... how??? they make it sound so easy... so simple and yet when you try to do it... it's just so complicated. you can't simply forget the past... move on and act like nothing happened! because in reality, something did happen that's why you want to escape from it, forget it! turn your back and walk away, sounds easy right? the moment you reach your sanctuary, you cry, bang your head unto the wall or bang at a table or simply throw everything in sight... emotion... simply emotion. see? you can't see it but it eats you up... one by one... pieces to pieces until you're left there alone, crawling, hoping that there will be someone out there to help you back up because you are too weak to stand on your own and get back on your life... what more if you want to pace things up? ah! having high expectations to finish something and get ahead of everyone then suddenly you tripped and everyone else went ahead of you. ouch right? it's like you lost everything and your life... it's like there's no one to light the candle in front of you in order to see where you're supposed to go. how could you forget that time? how could you simply ignore that everything happened? how could you simply walk away from such a painful memory?

i think the world is a painful place to live and dwell upon... the people around us makes it even harder. but then, there are those special people who will be able to lighten up your burden, help you get back on your knees... and you won't forget them... there are just somethings that you want to leave in the past and never bring them with you... but still, there are somethings that no matter how much you want to get rid of, they're still with you because they are also the ones you lighten up your road in some path of your journey...

let me repeat my question again... how could i forget something or someone so important to me? how could i forget the most memorable thing that happened? how could i forget the wishes that had been fulfilled? how could i forget someone i put my whole life into? how could i forget something i put all my guts into? how could i forget the most spectacular feeling that i have ever felt? how could i forget something that has an impact in my individuality? how could i forget the person who made everything possible? how could i forget the person who i have loved so much? and most importantly, how could i forget how to love?

a lot like love

damn this thing called love!

bakit ba ang tao takot masaktan pero pag nagmamahal kinakaya nalang lahat ng sakit? tapos get this, parang ano ngayon kung mahal mo di ba? sabi nila ang babae daw hindi pwede unang kumilos... play it hard to get... damn it! e pero kung alam mo naman di ba na mahal ka nung guy and you really love him bakit mo pa papalampasin hanggang sa araw na umalis siya iiyak iyak ka naman... tapos parang wak! nanghinayang ka lang.. sayang di ba? ayan ang reaksyon ko sa pelikulang "a lot like love".

damn! super gusto ko panuurin ito... as in inintay ko pa talaga at pinagtiyagaan idownload, get this, sa emule and hindi sa torrent. tapos here's what i get, a glimpse of reality. na napakatanga lang talaga nung girl! i mean mahal na nga siya ni oliver then she goes saying "don't, you'll ruin the moment..." argh! bakit ba? what's her deal? takot ba siyang saktan yung guy kasi mahal niya? and then oliver goes away... ayan... hahanap hanapin niya naman. why not give long distance relationship a chance di ba? don't get me wrong, i liked the movie... maganda pero hello! maybe yun yung nagpaganda sa movie... na pareho silang... argh! it's so frustrating!!! pero gets mo? hindi naman dapat ganun na mahirap lang and it won't work out... damn! how could they even know if it will work out f they don't even try?! kung mahal nila ang isa't isa, kahit na may dumating na iba hindi sila gagawa ng mali di ba? hindi dapat... once they did it, maybe they weren't meant for each other or one of thm is not yet ready... di ba?

ok ok... sorry, i was going to burst if i don't tell someone those things... so, sorry for the language... i just got carried away by the movie... sure it's nice... :D

hamtaro!!!



Which
Hamtaro character are you?

nba rants

here's the thing... a lot of people have been discouraging me about kobe bryant, los angeles laker's shooting guard... it all started the night kobe scored a whooping 62 pts againsts the mavericks and out scoring the entire mavericks team at the end of the third quarter.

as long as i can remember, i grew up cheering for utah jazz's karl malone againsts chicago bulls' michael jordan during the jazz-bulls season... and then, the kobe-shaq team was born and i cheered for la lakers since then. now that shaq is on miami heat, i still cheer for the lakers even though a lot of people would tell me that they will lose... big time! that they wouldn't even enter the top 4 or some, top 8 because of kobe's arrogant attitude. well, he has the right coz he's not all talk... he is great! you can't deny that fact. of course, i also cheer for other teams, like san antonio spurs, sacramento kings and now, phoenix... wah! can't remember... anyway, but i still enjoy cheering for lakers... they are the ones who can move me out of my seat, cheer at the top of my lungs even though i know it wouldn't do any good... and they simply are the best for me! trust me, i don't even know half the team's players! but hey, what can i do? i love the way the team moves, phil jackson's coaching skills and kobe bryant's admirable talent!

i have been thru a lot of arguements about kobe's fame. it was even in my ym status! oh well, for you guys out there who still doesn't want to believe me how people look up to kobe... here'e red hot chili pepper's bassist's, flea, nba blog

orange mirage

orange mirage!
shooting thru my head
wonder what it is
i never want it to end
oasis right in front of me
wonder how far
is it real
or is it hoax
il never know
until i see the orange mirage
again
what about the blue sky
infinite and yet reachable
clear but not clear
blackened with grey soot
nowhere to go
but the oasis ahead
i never wanted to go
but then it was there
i went there and fell
into the deep blue lake
i cant escape and yet
it feels so wonderful
to be there
alone
and then i cant breath
i want to escape
it let me
but i cant
i cant tear away
from it
sad sad me
how i long to live
and yet the lake kept me alive
but in pain
and more pain
let me go
let me free once again
i dont want to suffer anymore
there you go
you are free to go
but why cant you leave
i ask that myself
i feel so happy and yet so much in pain
theres just so much of the lake
i cant get enough of it
hopefully i will let go
and leave the oasis very soon
but then once it appears
once again
i know i will fall in again
until that day comes
i will leave myself to myself
i wont give myself up
to anything else
oh wonderful oasis
its sad you came into my life
but then without you
i have no more reason
to live i saw the mirage
whole day long
i felt my heart skip
and my feet stop
i felt cold
for awhile
but then it was you
the lake once again
i thought you were gone
and never coming back
but then you're here
haunting me again
it hurts me to see you
but then it hurts me not to
why did you came into
my life
you made it happy
and yet miserable
you come and go
leaving me in pain
aren't you tired of hurting me again and again
im tired of you
or the lies you told me
you led me on
and yet
im so stupid to believe
i wanted so much to just forget you
leave you as a painful past
and yet you keep coming back
and the truth arises
i cant leave you
or forget about you
i cant live without you
my little crystal clear lake
it pains me to see you go once again
but then a bit happy still
i really dont know what to think
theres nothing around me
but the orange mirage once again

im back!

after the new year, i have been nothing but relaxed... here i am, sitting in front of the desktop once again after a long time and now i'm updating... anyway... after not updating for a few days, i guess most guys are glad that i'm not writing nonstop jibberish anymore... i have just been exploring the web, looking for stuffs to spice up my blog and yet, the new year is here and still the same old layout... but there are some polls over at the exit links if you guys want to vote!!!

anyway, here's today's thought... "aking hiling mapasakin dating matamis na pagtinggin. nananalig, nananabik sayong matamis na paghalik. bakit pa ba ako'y napaasa? ngayo'y nag-iisa, kung mababalik ko lang..."

i heard this from a song last night while going to our father's side family reunion...though it has been edited by me to match my mood... i loved the lyrics and somewhat the melody...though, i don't know the title nor the artist... anyway... everything is so dramatic... you can barely see anything not serious about it... it is oh so serious... right? touching still! i think from what i heard from most of the song (my head was flying by the time the song finished the chorus) it's about a guy... he didn't confessed to the girl he like and is now regretting every single moment of it... it's like, why let go if you think you could take the risk of rejection? the girl was showing some signs that she also likes the guy and there the guy was, making his "torpe-ness" get the best of him... and now he regrets everything because whenever he saw the girl, she was with another guy. and then the bridge went like, why did the girl show signs that they could be together and yet they were not together at the end... now he's alone and wishing that he could bring back everything that was in the past...

how can i relate to this? i don't know, maybe because i really want something but i never ever ever can get it...

for those who hates sasuke so much...

for those who hates sasuke... watch this! listen to the song and who knows, maybe you'll like sasuke like i do! :D

cutest little darlings!

i have always love dogs specially puppies! why did God made pets anyway? dogs, cats... whatever... i guess it's to keep us company, to talk to when no one else would listen, to love and take care, to have some company when we're alone and simply to make us smile even through the worst times... why this? here's some pics that i simply find adorable beyond words!

puppy

pound?

yorkie
this is my teddy!




tell me these pics didn't make you fawn all over them or simply make you smile! oh well, nothing really, just want to share the joy of looking at these wonderful offsprings of nature... i wonder how long will it take for us humans to recognize their worth? i mean, some humans tend to treat these animals badly, saying that they are just animals... well, they have feelings too... if you cut thru them, do they not also bleed? anyway, these darling little puppies can make anyone swoon over them, right?

the reason for this entry, Christmas is approaching... and i want a puppy!!!

Christmas countdown

it's less than a month, a week, 5 days til Christmas... just like when i was a little kid, i look forward to this Christmas because of all the presents i expect and want to receive. but this Christmas, i have grown... as you can say, i have a grown-up Christmas list. i don't know if it's the effect of college or just the mere fact that i really have grown-up, maybe not over night but quite quickly than i have expected actually.

how can i say that i have matured? well, my wishlist, even though it still has those anime stuff included and some material things, is more... expensive. being a kid, i only wished and hoped to receive some Christmas cards, stuffed toys, pens... and i got disappointed to receive cash, bags or even food! imagine, me! getting upset in receiving cash!!! that must have been so sad... anyway, now, i long to receive it! ok, greediness level so high now!! anyway, i still love the thoughts of receiving stuffed toys anyway... actually, anything will do right now, as long as i know that the peson who gave it means a lot... whether it's in the form of store bought things, home baked muffins or a simple hug... actually, i prefer the last one. a simple hug, something sentimental, from the heart and simply long lasting for my memory!

i gave away myself this Christmas, and it's rare for me to do that. i tied a ribbon around me, and gave myself to Tanya! love ya Tanya! i bet you guys thought of someone else, right?! haha! i would have given myself to that person if i know that he will appreciate it... although i didn't give myself to him, he still took my heart and kept it for himself. aw...

last night, i was talking to some friends of mine about what i wanted to do when i found out that i flunk... i wanted to commit suicide, run away, and just give up. nobody cared about the last two choices... but they really lectured me about the first option, suicide... they told me that it would be very dumb and stupid of me if i did that... i knew that, that's why i didn't do it for the thousandth time that i have thought about it. when i was a little kid, i planned my life out. and the plan was to lie down on my bed on my 18th birthday and die there... thinking about no one else but myself... not thinking about the possible people who might cry... not thinking about the pain some may feel because of my selfishness... i guess i'm dumb that way... so dumb... well, during my 18th birthday, i really didn't lie down on my bed at exactly 6 pm... in fact, i was spending some time with my dad and my brother at a restauraant, pigging out like we usually do!

why then did my plan from when i was a kid subsided? i mean, most of my plans came to be... why not that one? it's not because it's impossible or even hard to attain... it's because i found someone who makes my life worth living... that's sappy!!! oh well, but that's the truth... i found someone who can make my life easier and more enjoyable... someone who makes my life really worth living til the very end... of course, that someone is not alone... i have my friends who supports me all the way thru everything! who am i kidding, everyone i know is so important to me right now that even the thought of death scares the hell out of me! and of course, i know that someone will be very sad if i died... so then, i wouldn't do that even if i said it over and over again, don't worry, sometimes i'm just in a phase...

life sucks...

life sucks... big time!

here's the deal, i know i deserve to pass engcal1... i just know ok? i mean, i studied and understood the lessons well, it's just that i can't pass the exams she's giving!!! i don't f*cking know why, ok? i mean, argh! i don't know what i mean already! my head is pounding and i just want to die right here, right now.

a lot of people will tell me not to waste my life over such stupid, f*cking shit... i know that.... but then again... i don't really know what i want to do with my life already... i just want to give up and die in my sleep...

there's nothing more i want to do now than die and vanish... or be with my best friend and grieve about all the stuff i'm hiding from everyone right now... i can't be strong all the time... i can't be angry at a time like this... this anger must have been brought in by the disappointment i have in me right now... but then again, from the day i found out my quiz results in my final quiz, i knew that i was going to fail... but then, i still studied... two days of studying came to nothing... nothing but a 0.0... damn this life! damn this engcal1! i really want to stay strong... fight whatever i think is going to come flowing soon... fight the tears that wants to flow down... fight the weakness residing in me...

but i can't... i just know i can't... i have to have someone near me right... someone who could comfort me and tell me that everything will be alright... someone who could assure me that tomorrow will be another great day... as the song goes, there's a rainbow always after the rain... someone who could just give me what i need right now... and that someone is no other than my best friend...

if you have read this, i need you right now more than ever... i'm sorry...

life really bites! if i were given a chance to redo everything, i just know i can make and will make everything go smoothly... and right now, i can never have that, can i?

p.s. sorry for the foul language used...

cartoons

what does cartoons say in our lives? i can and will consider myself as an adult right now... and cartoons are for kids. then why the topic? even though sometimes, i let other people see a side of me who enjoys watching adult shows like seinfeld, ed, discovery channel and such shows, i still prefer cartoons over any of those shows anytime!

anyway, here's the point, this entry is not originally my idea... i just read an article in menagerie, the la sallian, about cartoons and why it is a show for kids ONLY. well, they disagreed with it, and i also disagree with it even though i know that i am a big kid at heart. why? cartoons have many morals... it is not just for laughs or for "nothing else is good on the boob tube". in fact, it was stated in the la sallian, by watching an episode of as told by ginger, we can pick up a thousand more lessons than watching a very long exagerated soap opera! not only as told by ginger, cartoons have moved out of the tv and the big screen made way for them more than a hundred times i guess. finding nemo, the incredibles and such big time cartoon movies have more lessons still than a regular soap opera. not that i have something against soap operas, it's just that why are cartoons labelled as kid's only? and when adults or teens are watching them, they are teased about it. there's nothing wrong with wanting some laughs from our favorite, spongebob squarepants to maybe the most kiddie show, blue's clues! ok, i watch blue's clues... we watch these tv shows when we were little kids and found them humorous, why not continue watching them even thought the plots are the same and there's the never ending anvil fall! once in a while, it's healthy to put aside the laws of physics and have a few unreasonable laughs. it's the tv world we just don't have to understand... and i like that!

for some reason, i still find cartoons entertaining the way they were entertaining to me years ago! maybe because i really haven't accelerated yet and really am a kid a heart!

oh yeah, jira says she looks like a cartoon character! just finished my finals! free at last!

yet another dream

i seem to be having a lot of dreams lately... this one, i won't post as a letter in my homepage nor would i go to details about it. why? because it's a lot different compared to the other dreams i had. this one was really different and not at all mind boggling...

what do i have to say about this dream? well, i have concluded that i simply miss someone so much that i don't only think of him during day time, but he also haunts my subconciousness while i'm asleep. around 0240 awhile ago, i took a break from studying and took a nap, then this dream haunted me. i woke up at around 0440, 20 minutes before my actual wake up time. i found myself covered with sweat... i found tears rushing down my cheeks... why is it so hard to just look from a distance when in the past we were so close together? and why am i even doing this to myself? is it because that's what i think he likes me to do? am i really supposed to suffer this way?

i still miss him despite the things that i should prioritize... i should even be studying for my engcal1 test right now and i'm really on the edge... i'm just one step away from failing and i sure don't want to fall down... yet still, what's on my mind? i really miss him so much... i'm just punishing myself disappearing from his life... i guess that's just what i really have to do and yet, i feel so much pain and confusion... for once, i really want to find peace... and find the answer to all my unanswered questions...
Happy Birthday Ahya Terry!

where the streets have no names

while burning some cds for my uncle, i saw a title of a song by Aerosmith... "where the streets have no names". i wondered for a while where could that place be... maybe a labyrinth or an ant farm... i haven't really listened to it yet, and as of now, i really have no intention...

for me, "where the streets have no names" refers to the road ahead... not literally a road that we have to pass... but the road we will take in our journey in life. why don't the streets have names? because we don't really know where we're headed. nobody knows what lies ahead if we go on with our lives. the world still has a lot of mysteries waiting to be uncovered, so have our lives. we don't lead everyday of our lives monotunuosly or organized til the last second, in fact we are told over and over again to leave some time for unexpected surprises. and so we take on streets with no names in order to give them their names.

and then again, another conclusion was formed in my head. where streets have no names i guess also refers to the foolishness of one's heart. love as they say is blind, you set endless qualifications for the one you want to fall in love with but at the end, you always end up with the one who is an exception to every single rule. why is it the place where streets have no names? because you don't really know where you are once you are in love. your destiny tends to be not only yours but also your partner's. you either work as a team or you fail as an individual. still, you really don't need names for the streets if it's your own personal world, right? when you're in love, you have your own world, your own fantasies and your own dreams but with a significant other.

here's my point and how i will relate it with my life right now: i'm tired of living and continuing my journey where the streets have no names. i don't know what lies in front of me or what may happen next. i'm tired of looking from afar... of just waiting here and when i see your name pop out from nowhere, i seem to scurry away scared... i'm tired of how i handle my life right now... i was told that the one who have the most courage is the one you need to look out for because he/she maybe the one who will hurt you most... i guess i could be that.. but lately i have been nothing but scared silly... i have been nothing and my life has been nothing... believe it or not, i really need you in my life but no matter how much i want to move on and no matter how much i say to people that everything is the past right now... i still can't move on... i'm still stuck... in love with you...

some songs...

Makita Kang Muli
sugar free

Bawat sandali ng aking buhay
Pagmamahal mo ang aking taglay
Saan man mapadpad ng hangin
Hindi magbabago ang aking pagtingin
Pangako natin sa maykapal
Na tayo lamang sa habang buhay
Maghintay...
Ipaglalaban ko ang ating pagibig
Maghintay ka lamang, ako'y darating
Pagka't sa isang taong mahal mo ng buong puso
Lahat ay gagawin, makitang kang muli
Makita kang muli, makita kang muli...
Puso'y nagdurusa, nangungulila
Iniisip ka pagnagiisa
Inaalala mga sandali
Ng tayo ay magkapiling
'kaw ang gabay sa aking tuwina
Ang aking ilaw sa gabing mapanglaw
Tanging ikaw...
Ipaglalaban ko ang ating pagibig
Maghintay ka lamang, ako'y darating
Pagka't sa isang taong mahal mo ng buong puso
Lahat ay gagawin, makitang kang muli
Makita kang muli, makita kang muli...

Rie Fu
Anime: Bleach
Song Title: Life is Like a Boat (first ending theme)
Nobody knows who I really am,
I've never felt this empty before.
And if I ever need someone to come along,
Who's gonna comfort me and keep me strong?
We are all rowing the boat of fate
The waves keep on coming and we can't escape
But if we ever get lost on our way
The waves will guide you through another day
Tooku de iku o shiterutoumei ni natta mitai
Kurayami ni omoi dakedomekakushi sareteta dake
Inori wo sasageteatarashii hi wo matsu
Azayaka ni hikaru umisono hate made ee~
Nobody knows who I really am
Maybe they just don't give a damn
But if I ever need someone to come along
I know you will follow me and keep me strong
Hito no kokoro wa utsuri yukunukedashitakunaru
Tsuki wa mata atarashii shuukide mune wo sureteku
And every time I see your face
The oceans lead out to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars
And soon I can't see the shore
Oh, I can't see the shore...
When will I see the shore?
I want you to know who I really am
I never thought I feel this way toward you
And if you ever need someone to come along
I will follow you and keep you strong
Tabi wa mada tsuzuitekuodayaka na hi mo
Tsuki wa mata atarashii shuukide mune wo terashidasu
Inori wo sasageteatarashii hi wo matsu
Azayaka ni hikaru umisono hate made
And everytime I see your face
The oceans lead out to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars
And soon I can't see the shore
Unmei no fune wo koginami wa tsugi kara tsuki e to
Watashi-tachi wo sou kedosore mo suteki na tabi ne
Dore mo suteki na tabi ne...

The song Makita Kang Muli was something someone asked me to listen to. and when i listened to it, it really is nice. there you go...
the second song Life is Like A Boat is from Bleach. at first, i was annoyed by it, big part rie fu was the one who sung it. anyway, i came to like it as i listened to it just a while ago. the lyrics can tell you why i like it...

i MiSs YoU...

sme leadership seminar

ok, i have stopped thinking for awhile... stopped thinking about what i thought was my life anyway... and came to think about the so called more important stuff to me... what is my decision?

i have just attended our org',sme, leadership seminar. here's something i picked up from it, i have to set a vision and a mission in life. of all the things that we were asked to do awhile ago, the one i found the hardest to do was to give myself an award and my motto in life. here's something that came to mind that was a pretty scary thought... am i doing the right thing? is my decision to enter DLSU-Manila and take my course in bachelor of science in manufacturing engineering and management with specialization in mechatronics and robotics the right decision? is it the course for me? is it what i really want? is my future there? or do i even have an idea what might be in store for me? i could have easily entered UST with a course in computer science or maybe if i took the entrance test in CSB, i might be able to walk in and out of Angelo King everyday and lead an easy college life. i have been thinking about this for a thousand times already... why do i always have to doubt what i have decided on? from th moment i saw my brother's DLSU application form, i told myself that i will enter DLSU thru the course comp eng or mem-mr or com sci... either of the three. i decided upon it and now, why am i feeling this pang of emotions, resent and doubt? am i really right for this course? or should i renew my schedule and drop all the major courses to shift next year? why is life unfair?

what is my mission in life? what is my vision? do i even have a purpose to live? what are my priorities in life? what is my goal? i guess i have the true characeristics of a gemini after all... i have been interested in a lot of things that at first i am so excited about it but after a short time, i got tired and just left it there. and now, because of all the possibilities opened to me because of all the opportunities shown and exposed to me, i don't really know what i want... i don't know my mission nor my vision. mission vision, this is the thing i came across and really had a hard time looking for the right answer... until now, i still really don't know what i want to do with my life...

let's see... what i want in life really is to settle down, have a good life together with someone i love and loves me back... what then is my mission? i still don't know after 18 years of living, i guess i really don't know what i want to do and have been spending my life aimlessly and jus wasting it by having all those momentary fun in life... looking back to my past, i can say that i have done nothing to change anything, i have done nothing to attain a goal... i have done nothing to help anyone... i have done nothing for myself. wow, this is some confession! what i want in the future... is something i really need to think about within this weekend. what my goals are, what my mission is, and what i will have to do to fulfill all those... if i found out what the answers are to all these questions, then i will live my life accordingly.

by the way, after some time, i finally found my motto... the sky's the limit... and the award i want? stars. why's that? the sky's the limit is to motivate me that even though i failed at one thing (which i really am so scared about btw) i can stand up once again and reach for the sky... and that i have a lot of things that i can still do. my award, stars, has a really simple meaning behind it. it simply means that i want to accomplish many many things, much more than an ordinary human can. just like the stars, i want my accomplishments to be countless and not just countless but also priceless...

Happy Birthday Shoti Scott!
