The Long and Winding Road- The Beatles

This song reminds me of my dad who died in 2007, and I can tell you, hearing this song brings me sadness, but comfort, too. May you rest in peace paps.

Also, he has a poster of this album cover which was displayed in our house, as well as its cd.My dad is a huge fan of The Beatles ever since my siblings and I are kids.

I miss you soo much Papa, We love you. rest in peace and guide us always.

Beatles - The Long And Winding Road 1970

SULAT...

Alright,let me start this blog by sharing my personal story about what happened last night, as I was looking over on some books that my 14 years old niece had asked me to find ,because she will be needing it for her project .so,what I did is that, hinalughog ko ng bonggang bongga lahat ng pweding mapaghanapan, like mga cabinets,bookshelf and yung super jurasic dated (meaning,super luma at tagal) na kahon. sa kakahanap ko,hindi koman nakita yung book, iba ang bumungad sa akin,and guess what it is?!...mga sobrang tagal ng mga letters (hmm,oo medyo may pagka-love letters yung iba ;) )na naipon ko wayback in 2005 nang makapag abroad ako.samu't-saring mga sulat.napangiti ako ng mga makita ko ulit ang letter ng aking pamangkin who was by then a 9 year old kid.syempre. may letter din from my mama.

nakita kodin ang letter nang ex ko na sobrang bonggang daming "MAHAL" words sa 6 pages nyang sulat na paulit-ulit nalang ang nilalaman. :)
Until,napukaw ang aking mata sa isang sulat na kahit simpleng yellow paper lang na dalawang pahina at kalahati (Tamah!! dalawang buong yellow paper at isang kalahati) at di medyo kaintindi-intinding sulat,nabaling ang aking atensyon at binasa muli ang nilalaman noon.habang binabasa ko ang sulat hindi ko maalis sa aking sarili na magbalik tanaw sa mga nakasaad at nilalamant nito at napangiti nalang. Galing ito sa dating kasintahan na (fyi,wala na kami nung nasa abroad ako,may iniirog na siyang iba noon, at gayun din ako) naging kaibigan pagkatapos ng lahat ng pinagdaanan sakit at masasamang ala-ala na pareho na lamang naming binaon sa limot. We use to call each other as pare, wala lang, boyish ako noong nagkakilala kame kaya ganun

So now, isshare ko ang ibang parts ng sulat na ito na 2006 pa ang date (syempre edited na no, wag nang mag ambisyon na detalyado ;P ) na natouched ako dahil kahit ganun ka loko ang nagsulat, may sense parin pala noon na pinahalagahan nya ang pagiging magkaibigan namen:

“Pogro (para daw maiba sa pare), kamusta? Ako ayos naman at huminga parin very happy dun sa gift mo na MP4..Thank you pare! Asahan mo na kahit Mp4000 na ang magiging uso, itatago ko parin ito at tulad ng sabi mo I papaframe.:)

“Naalala ko pala na galing ako kila Tita mo kahapon, Infairness, hindi ako nailang sa ate mo kahit pano nakapagbonding kame tsaka hindi siya mahirap kausap lalo na pag hahaluan pa ni Tita, Nakakakabid ako :)

“So yun nga, I felt at home mula sa pamangkin mo, pati kay dad mo even kay Tita J. mo. Yun nga at naginternalize ako at napapangiti nalang ng sa mga pangyayari. May nagsshot doon,nagkkwentuhan dito, yung bang ganun mga bagay and I never felt na“OTHERS” ako and I’m thinking..wishful thinking Na sana andito ka din para kumpleto rekado. Tapus ayon nag evolve na lahat.

“Ang laki ng pasasalamat ko na nakilala kita and even if wala kaman dito, welcome ako sa families and relatives mo.hindi man nag end ang friendship naten dahil nag abroad ka. Or like college friend na pagkatapos ng buhay istudyante nawawalan nakayo ng komunikasyon.”mababaw” that’s the word. I’ve met a lot of friends but frankly…ikaw nalang ang natira na andito padin sa tabi ko.yung tipong until now, after how many years, kahit may kanya kanya na tayong buhay, still buhay paring ang communication naten and nothing has changed.

“Honestly,nung umalis ka ilang araw din akong wala sa sarili, I mean yung syempre nalungkot at nasabi konalang sa aking sarili na “damn,nawalan ako ng isang matalik na kaibigan, para narin akong napilayan.then yung nga tumatawagtawag ka saken..syempre sumaya naman ako, pero nasabi korin sarili ko na yung time na yun bago kapalang doon at nahohomesick kaya ganun, but you proven me wrong, until now matatag paring ang samahan naten.I’v e realized that you were never gone at all.
“Pag nag-eemote ako at namomoblema how I wish na andito ka kasi parang mas naeexpress ko sayo yung mga bagay na ganun..syempre with red horse on the side.:)


Ok, back to my normal blog, masyado nang mahaba ang naishare ko. so siguro, most of my friends na makakabasa nito e mag rereact na why do I still need to blog this eh may kanya-kanya na kaming buhay diba, siya may pamilya na, ako?hmm basta happy ako, kung anong meron ako ngayon at kung sino man yung taong yun na nakakapag pasaya saken…sakin nalang muna yun, malay nyo siya naman ang isusunod ko isulat sa blog ko. (abangan), anyway, well kaya kolang naman naisipan isulat ito is that gusto ko lang mashare sa iba na kahit pala gaanon ka bitter ang mga pangyayare noon may mga times din pala na na aappreciate ka nang mga taong pinakisamahan mo ng totoo. I mean yung marka na iniwan mo sa kanila bilang totoong kaibigan saan man kayo mapunta or ano man ang mangyare.
Ang mahalaga lang,dapat maging totoong tao tayo sa pakikisama.tama na muna ang pagiging plastic. Polluted na nga ating bansa sa iba’t mga usok at basura, dadagdagan paba naten?! ;)

SAY WHAT YOU MEAN, MEAN WHAT YOU SAY, BUT DON'T SAY IT MEAN.


The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing at the right place but to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.
- Dorothy Nevill

Sara Bareilles - Gravity

I used to appreciate this, when I was able to spend a weekend off with my Hanaay =^_^= ,and have some movie marathon at her crib. I was touched by that movie that we were able to watch to the point that even if i wanted to pee(oops),I just can't
take my eyes out of that monitor and have ignored my nature calling. ;)

Her voice, the piano and poignancy of her lyrics make this song better with each listen.

Seriously, this is one of the few songs that makes me go all quiet in the end. Specially when she sings the 'down' part. I don't mind that all of her songs are in fact about the same person/situation, it only makes the songs more real, cause of the autobiography. You can sense the emotion in this one.



Something always brings me back to you.
It never takes too long.
No matter what I say or do I'll still feel you here 'til the moment I'm gone.

You hold me without touch.
You keep me without chains.
I never wanted anything so much than to drown in your love and not feel your rain.

CHORUS
Set me free, leave me be. I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be.
But you're on to me and all over me.

You loved me 'cause I'm fragile.
When I thought that I was strong.
But you touch me for a little while and all my fragile strength is gone.

CHORUS

I live here on my knees as I try to make you see that you're everything I think I need here on the ground.
But you're neither friend nor foe though I can't seem to let you go.
The one thing that I still know is that you're keeping me down.

Our Lady Peace - 4am

The message behind the song is pretty obvious, but you probably didn't know that Raine wrote this song after having a dream that his father was in the hospital dying. In the dream, he didn't make it to the hospital in time to say I love you. So in the song he says if he doesn't make it, if it really happens, know that I've always loved you although we haven't really talked alot.

and it's quite the thought about not realizing what you have until its gone. great song.



I walked around my good intentions
and found that there were none
I blame my father for the wasted years
we hardly talked
I never thought I would forget this hate
then a phone call made me realize
I'm wrong

Chorus:
If I don't make it known that
I've loved you all along
just like the sunny days that
we ignore because
we're all dumb & jaded
and I hope to God I figure out
what's wrong

I walked around my room
not thinking
just sinking in this box
I blame myself for being too much
like somebody else
I never thought I would just
bend this way
then a phone call made me realize
I'm wrong

Chorus

and I hope to God I figure out what's wrong x2

Pearl Jam - Black

There is a strong consensus among Pearl Jam and non-Pearl Jam fans regarding the emotional impact of this song.

People strongly remember and identify with black and especially the last lines:

"i know someday you'll I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a star, in somebody else's sky, but why why can't it be mine?".

So I guess those lines have their influence on everyone.
Each person thinks it's for him and about him, and how personal it is and fragile!

I find this song very self-explicit and clear in its subject matter,
and very poetic and vague in its similes and metaphors. I think the emotional impact is great firstly because of Eddie's voice, secondly, for the emotional music, and at last, the lyrics which make people identify so strongly with the subject and the emotion it arouses.
Lost love, unreturned love, or dead love is certainly the most popular subject in popular music and perhaps in art itself.
this is why it is such a classic.



Hey... oooh...
Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did.
All five horizons revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn

Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything.
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear?
Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can drop away

And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything?
All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be... yeah...
Uh huh... uh huh... ooh...

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a sun in somebody else's sky, but why
Why, why can't it be, can't it be mine

DEBATE:SHOULD Ex-LOVERS BE FRIENDS?

Should ex lovers be friends? What differentiates the couples who remain friends from those who don't?

Deciding to be friends with an ex lover is a choice that should be made by people who are able to honesty connect with true feelings about current intentions and future desires, without using denial as a tool to sell current status to others.

Your current relationship is sensitive to the silent hints and nonverbal clues that let people know someone may have feelings for an ex. Immature lovers will argue that they should be allowed to be friends with an ex, exhibiting defensiveness in response to not being trusted. Those accused act outraged at not being believed capable of keeping things platonic with an ex.

But if you secretly have longing for your ex, it will show. Whether or not it becomes a self fulfilling prophesy that follows accusations... and brings you into the passionate arms of your ex lover... that is the game you choose to play when you enjoy temptation under the guise of casual friendship. Are you fundamentally capable of being honest and mature? Or are you just enjoying a naive thrill to feel important, or resolve past issues, at the expense of another?

So what makes some ex lovers different? Why are some able to be friends?

1.Believe it or not, sometimes it is easiest to become friends with an ex-lover who was once your enemy. Two people who come to mutual understanding that they are a volatile mix are often able to enjoy interpersonal relationships

2.When an ex becomes part of the family, his role may continue. As family dynamics evolve, some ex lovers become permanent in the extended family.

how about you? what is your point of view regarding this matter?

Uh Huh Her - Common Reaction (Acoustic)

Let me give you a brief intro  about this band:

Camila Grey, a former member of the lo-fi rock band Mellowdrone, had not released any solo material prior to joining Uh Huh Her. However, she had played bass and keyboards for a variety of artists, such as Dr. Dre, Melissa Auf der Maur, Busta Rhymes, and Kelly Osbourne. She is currently a member of Adam Lambert's band.

Leisha Hailey, formerly of The Murmurs and Gush, had temporarily left the music business to join the cast of Showtime's hit series The L Word as the character Alice Pieszecki.

Originally, there were three members in Uh Huh Her. The third member, Alicia Warrington, quit.

In 2010 they made the song "Same High" for the comedy film The Kids Are All Right.

Love..love this song.enjoy :)

Tori Amos-"Sleeps With Butterflies" Music Video

i think this song is about having to let somebody go & explore themselves before being able to be with them. i think the "kiss away night" part simply just means that instead of night accompanying her to sleep everynight, it's butterflies. to say that she only sleeps with butterflies, to me, means that she is ok with this man going off on his own for a little while- she is ok with letting him go ("if you need some time i don't mind, don't hold onto the tail of your kite") ... it's like saying "yeah ok, go on and go, i only allow myself to be with butterflies anyway so go on and be one." lol very simple and broken down terms but that's what i think she means.



airplanes take you away again
are you flying above where we live
then i look up, a glare in my eyes
are you having regrets about last night

i'm not, but i like rivers that
rush in so then i dove in
is there trouble ahead for you, the acrobat
i won't push you, unless you have a net

you say the word you know i will find you
or if you need some time i don't mind
i don't hold onto the tail of your kite
i'm not like the girls that you've known
but i believe i'm worth coming home to
kiss away night
this girl only sleeps with butterflies
with butterflies
so go on and fly then, boy

balloons look good from on the ground
i fear with pins and needles around
we may fall then stumble upon a carousel
it could take us anywhere

you say the word you know i will find you
or if you need some time i don't mind
i don't hold onto the tail of your kite
i'm not like the girls that you've known
but i believe i'm worth coming home to
kiss her, waiting by this girl
this girl

you say the word you know i will find you
or if you need some time i don't mind
i don't hold onto the tail of your kite
i'm not like the girls that you've known
but i believe i'm worth coming home to
kiss away night
this girl only sleeps with butterflies
with butterflies
with butterflies
so go on and fly boy

SUNDAY..WORK DAY

alrigh alright, enough about some melodramatic post this time. As i am starting to post additional blog,ganito pala , medyo parang tanga ka lang na kinakausap mo kunyari ang laptop dahil wala kang magawa. haha.anyway, going back, but it was good hobby though, naiisasaloob mo yung nararamdaman mo in anyway kese hodang english man or taglish,as long as nasshare mo yung thought ng isinusulat mo. so now, as i am creating this blog, hmm andito ako sa office nag iisip kung pano ko uumpisahan ang mga trabahong naka assign ngayon saken na hindi mo mawari kung ano ba ang unang tatrabahuhin dahil puro " Priority" lahat,tama,correct!ganun pagkabongga ang aking  trabaho. infairness i'm enjoying it naman dahil ito ang field of work ko and sa lahat naman ng trabaho walang madali,walang magaan, kailangan lang maglaan ng pasensya para tumagal ka, dahil kung hindi, sa kangkungan ka pupulutin or baka maging isa sa mga libo libong mamayan na naghahanap ng trabaho. actually,i have come to realized lately that i was lucky enough compare to the other people who are jobless,graduate na sila, mga bachelor's degree but nahihirapan parin silang maghanap ng trabaho.so ito nalang ang words of wisdom ko."pahalagahan kung anong meron tayo, dahil hindi naten masasabe kung haggang kelan naten matatamasa ito".....

Mae's 14th Birthday

time flies so fast..para kelan kolang binabantayan, ngayon dalaga na siya :), this is my niece mae-mae, and its her 14th birthday today.


What's On My Mind?!

there's nothing really much to say, because we all have alot in mind, but as of now, what i want to share is about what my goal/s are for the next  remaining months. and I my sister have plans on finishing the remaining structure of our house.Hopefully, we could be able to have it done by January 2011.so kailangan talaga ng pagtitipid and spend our earnings wisely.Just like the song "Billionaire" by Travie Mccoy, who does not want to be a billionaire and buy all the things you never had, but  as for me, bibilhin konalang ang mga gusto ko pag ok na ang lahat. :).next gusto kong may maging business before mag 2011, hmm, ano kaya maganda? :)
