Where words fail...

...music speaks.

-+--'=:!O!:='--+-
"Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent." ~Victor Hugo

"Music expresses feeling and thought, without language; it was below and before speech, and it is above and beyond all words." ~Robert G. Ingersoll

"Music cleanses the understanding; inspires it, and lifts it into a realm which it would not reach if it were left to itself." ~Henry Ward Beecher

"Music is God's gift to man, the only art of Heaven given to earth, the only art of earth we take to Heaven." ~Walter Savage Landor

"Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and life to everything." ~Plato

Music is what keeps me dreaming... the fire that keeps my heart burning, the light that keeps my spirit glowing. ~Jas

"You light up the candle in the sky"

...was the most beautiful song I have ever heard... until I woke up. And now I don't even remember the line that I sang. ='( At least I get to remember the title! Heehee... =)

<"I might as well add this here...">
I distinctly remember a time (just a few weeks before the board exam) when I dreamt with no picture (what color? take a guess...), I thought it was one of those nightmares again but suddenly one of Bach's symphonies played in the background and I swear I could hear every single piece of instrument and follow every note playing for a number of minutes! What fascinates me is how it played in my mind clearly and precisely when all I really know is the part of the first violin with a little accompaniment and I can only follow the notes if I hear the music playing. weird...

mood: fascinated

Again?!

"The Red Planet is about to be spectacular.
Mars will look as large as the full moon to the naked eye."

See through the visible

How can people be so judgemental? It just pisses me off to hear people speak so terribly of people they don't even know! argh... Mabuti pa ang mga bulag kung ganon! They are blessed with blindness so that they can feel in order to see... see through things the way we can't always do. We are all guilty of that offense and sometimes we don't realize that what really is essential are the things invisible to the eye.

mood: perceptive

Reincarnate now.

I just can't help but remark how compelling Nike's newest theme is...

"Leave your old self behind. Reincarnate now."

Wow these words are powerful. Simple yet profound.

mood: reflective

Sword of Gold

Hmmm... Isn't it that gold (Au) is a soft metal? Why in the world would Cassiopeia in 'Encantadia' use it in forging a sword? Wahehe... :D

It's raining frogs!

It's been constantly raining for days now and it's freezing cold here in the office. I was on my way to my apartment one night just after the first downpour when I saw about a thousand little frogs THE SIZE OF A FINGERNAIL suddenly leaping in the dark! They were really cute but I felt a chill up my spine seeing so many of them as I stride along careful not to squash them. The first time I've seen those I was so fascinated and felt pretty weird as much that a frog could get that small. Reminds me so much of LB... :) Could anyone tell me what species of frogs those are?

mood: brrrr...

We didn't just have spag...

The celebration of Cedie's birthday last tuesday night was really one of a kind. Early monday morning I received a text message from papa: "Ate yang c cedie nag-attend kahapon ng bday party ng kaklase niya, ang dami raw regalo. Siya daw ba may matatanggap din sa bday niya?"... and so everybody got him a present! I was excited myself because it was the first birthday in the family where we didn't just have spaghetti, each one also deliberately prepared a gift for the celebrator: sky-pilot helicopter, spiderman watch, crushgear, power shooter, stuffed puppy, and a cute chess set. Suwerte talaga 'pag bunso! Guess which one came from me? I didn't expect he'd be that thrilled because it wasn't really a toy but when he saw it he actually shouted with glee... "WOW...!!!" He has always been very fond of playing chess. :)

mood: touched

I choose

I may not hide from the truth... I may not close my eyes to the things I don't want to see... I may not have the power to change the world... but I do have the power to live my life the way I want it to be, and I choose to live in purity. I choose the path where light shines upon.

"I am the captain of my ship. I am the master of my soul."

Mga Kuwentong Cedie III

Cedie with my neice Alhanna
Cedie: "Kanina pa si bibs naglalaro, mainit na yung CPU. Ate yang 'di ba ang ibig sabihin ng CPU... Com-P-Uter? 'Di ba pinaikli lang yun...?"

hehe... buti pa ang mga bata. *Sigh* Happy Birthday Cedie! :)

mood: lifted

The child in me...

...cries for what adults don't see...

mood: depressed

Bright side of the day

Happy birthday to my beloved and admired friend... hannabadoo la michika boo la bilibi balibi boo...! Wishing you all the happiness in this life... :)

Crying does help...

Crying makes me a little numb after. It's like pouring out the impurities deep within my agitated heart and calming down the turbulent emotions I try to hold back inside. Sadly, residues remain... that which is called memory.
-+--'=:!O!:='--+-
If I could just close my eyes to the things I don't want to see... and my ears to the things I don't want to hear... If I could just undo the irreversible... then I wouldn't have felt the grief of a disillusioned soul.

mood: disheartened
