Welcome Back!

I miss blogspot. A lot. I almost worried when I found out that I cannot open my account a month or so. I go loco because I'm afaid I may not see my post again here. This is my first blog site ever and I enjoy every word/s that I write here based on my thoughts and my emotions. This is my first visit since I ran out of ideas on how to open my account due to my short term memory loss (password).
Within that month that I was away with blogspot I met Tumblr. And I get enthused right away. I can't stop re blogging my follower's alluring photos. It was love at first sight. It was easy to use and it didn't confuse me. I fell in love also with the features, themes, quotes, photo sharing, videos and the likes. But when I keep on re blogging, blogspot come to the picture. So I decided to re blog on Tumblr and write BIG TIME in blogspot. After all, nothing beats blogspot which is my first love. NOw I welcome myself back here.

Where were you when I needed you?


I was like what the crap is going on with me. I’m not used to being alone. It seems that I am the only person who doesn’t know how to smile. Though, my smile is expensive, it feels like I was devastated for the rest of my life carrying a handful of flaws. I think I was the only person who had a problem. This is not me. Something’s going wrong. Maybe it all started when I knew things weren’t the way it used to be. I keep on asking myself why this and that happens. Why are they doing like this and like that? The action didn’t look so appealing to me. Best friends or best buddies as you may call them, where are they? Where are they when I need them so badly? Where are they when all I want to do is to feel the willingness of the group? Feels like I’m aloof to the group – out of the picture. I almost believe that best friends will always be there for you when they need you. But now I guess I don’t know who to call for help. I don’t know where to run if problems may arise. I don’t know if they still want me to mingle or what. I always experienced being left out. I try to reach out but they didn’t want me to reach them. Have I done something to the group? Feels like I’m a stranger to them already. I always take the blame and the mistakes. Maybe it’s me who is the problem. Maybe it’s me who has this attitude problem.

Peer pressure is tempting. That’s w
hy I get tempted too. But here we go this maturity level stage. I’ve been through this process and it’s killing me. It’s so hard. My perspective and view in life is different from the way I saw things before. I value life and I don’t argue about it. One of my friends said "Are we part of that I change?" I replied yes, definitely. Though it’s hard for me to accept it, I still want to try. I let them explain my entire sentiments ad I was trying not to let my tears fall down on my face. I don’t want them to have pity on me in the end. So I decided to detach from them for quite sometime. I couldn’t believe myself that I was able to tell them what I felt without feeling hatred.

I thought, if I detach I’ll be happy, but the truth is I’m not. I can resist them after all they’re my friends. I didn’t know why I stayed. I’m trying to be decisive but my fickle mind keeps on interrupting. I’m not a fickle-minded person. It’s just that I can’t stand to be alone and I hate being alone. I’m afraid that nobody will be there for me. Tapping their hands at my back and say, "Friend, are you okay?"

Time had passed, it’s all the same - nothing has changed. It’s the old routine. I’m tired. Tired of dealing with immature people. Tired of arguing. Tired of trying to understand their behavior. I don’t know where to take sides. It’s so ironic. Unfair. Nobody cares about me. Nobody would dare to ask me if I’m okay or not. Nobody would say how are you? Nobody would tend to listen. Nobody understands me. Nobody. Where’s the foundation of what we called, "friends".

"Tell me who you’re friends are and I will tell you who you are", famous line from the bible. I don’t believe that the kind of friends you keep reflects who you are. Character, behavior and attitude is within yourself if has nothing to do with who your friends are. "When it hurts to look back and you’re scared to look ahead, you can look beside you and your best friend will be there" I don’t have a best friend and I don’t believe in best friend. But I have a friend. As what my dad said, "Its fluid". Yes it is. When you go to your school and meet a friend in the lobby and another one in the 3rd floor or somewhere, then its fluid. A bevy of friends is what I have not much of a real true friends. As what Morrie said, "Friends are great but they are not going to be there for you when you’re sick. They’re trying to be helpful." My mom always advise me to choose your friends and yeah I followed her advice. By the way, my mom is one of my closest friends.

Every time I’m in my darkest nights I accept all the pain and ask god for help. It’s alright to love what is in pain. My dad always advise me to "love yourself and be satisfied with yourself before you can love another." I was once in a dilemma and God was helping me to figure out something. That was the time I cried so hard. Now I’ve learned. My prayers have been answered. Full of bliss, is what I’ve felt after all the nightmares that happened. At that time, I remember what my childhood friend Emil said, "You can never find a real and true friend in this permanent world". Indeed it’s true. Somehow it was a battle and it’s worth fighting for. I don’t like to take risks. I’m afraid it will not work out so well.

Missing-in-Action!

It's blogging time. It's been a nerve-wracking day. After the stressful days-wallah..i get to have the chance to visit my blog. Nothing has changed. I may say that once you've got stuck or exposed yourself in various activities, you intent to forget yourself. So crazy to think but that's what I experienced it right now-at this point in time. I miss my old routine everyday. I miss those all times that I've been alone. I miss my high school friends. I miss doing household chores. I miss reading my Dean Koontz and Paulo Coelho books. I miss writing. I miss dancing and the practices. I miss the house-party. I miss the K1 (videoke). I miss my friend. I miss being in love. I miss being happy.I miss cooking. I miss myself. I miss everything in me. Too bad I can't make up all those things that I miss in my life. Too bombarded with work-related things. Stressful as it is, hope I have the time to make up all those missing parts in my life. There's time for everything!

An Excruciating Memories

It's a cloud Sunday when I was in my room doing nothing. I squat on the floor and stared on the wall. The picture frame caught my attention. It was my first time to put a picture on a frame. I usually collect and keep it my closet. It was the photo of my friends together with my new found "teacher-and-friend". With looking at the photo, I recall the memories that we've spent together. All the while I keep on laughing at myself. Good enough I was alone in my room. Since my memories are fresh and functioning, I get my two journals on my closet.
Diary as you may called it but journal is more formal and appropriate. I read my first journal and it's a full of melodramatic situations. At that time the meat of the story is more on life experiences, friendships, family, school work and of course the thing called LOVE (it will not complete the whole package without love). My first journal is based on my high school years. When I started to read it I didn't imagines I was able to expressed what I felt on my journal. Full of heartaches, pain, miserable, responsibility and FEAR. Happy memories is not included in my game. It's indeed a series of unfortunate events. I never taste the essence of having a good LIFE. The statement the "You've got to learn the hard way" from my mom keep haunting my mind. Hard way as it is I was able to survive. Conflict on my family matters is my weakest point. Too much to handle. But I keep on stressing out that the foundation of my FAMILY is important and my first priority. Whether you'll commit a mistake it's always the family that keeps you going.
Friendship and love comes as one. I was once touched by the arrow of cupid. And it's really driving me crazy. I was in the place where everybody wants to be loved and the other way round. Sometimes I wanna scream and catch my breath if this is REAL love or what. "He's so cute" was my favorite punch line. I think crushes are normal. And I don't think it's normal if the person you love don't know how to appreciate little things. That person maybe is insensitive. Guess I know how to deal with them. It will be difficult in the first part but you will do good better next time.
Baby sitter of the day - was my job. never did I imagine it was too hard and too difficult to raised my younger brothers. As you can see I'm the eldest that is expected that I had the bigger share of responsibility at home (except from my parents, though). They keep pestering each other. They're like animal because they eat like cats and dogs (gabble and gabble). As if they'll going to die if they miss one meal in a day. But despite of their naughtiness they are so lovable and passionate in good ways. They can make you laugh out loud out of their stupidity. It made me think as if they were really my real son. Never mind mind the tiring moments what important is you will able to interact and learn a lot from them and vice versa. You see patience is what you need guys. And if you have the value of being patience well then you are qualified of being a nanny (just joking).
My journey as what I wrote on my first journal is far from what I expected. You will never know that you're being tested in different ways. Patience and Perseverance works for me. But still my questions are lining up for finding the right answers. My experiences are my resources because I learned from them. Different levels of experiences help me make a better person. That's why other people say "been there done that". because they already undergo a lot of circumstances in their life.
Guess I still have one journal left to impart with you guys but that would be another story. Everything in my life right now is a constant change. It vary on how you handle and view your life for tomorrow.

chasing with the boys

Before the class will start i have two weeks to go after with my boys. I'm not referring the "boys" that is associated with crushes, suitors or what? I'm referring my boys with my three younger brothers. Since I'm the ate(eldest) the three of them is in my hands. Good thing they are already finished enrolled in their school. With the remaining weeks they're still enjoying the summer. They keep on asking me when the start of class is. And I keep on answering back to them that question a million times. Their excitement in school is in the highest level. Guess they really miss school where learning and fun is there.
Taking care of my boys is not until this summer or after summer. It's forever. I'm going to be there for them until they grow up as a man. My mother can't afford to take care of them because she's still busy with her work. So I'm the eyes and ears of my boys. As an eldest and as a student my role is important in my family. It's really hard to pare my time with them coz for sure my time will utilize to my work in school. Now that I'm almost there in a finish lines of my schooling it's hard to balance my time with them.
My responsibility - is a matter of life and death. It's not gonna be easy on my part. There are times I don't bother to care for myself because I devote my time to my loved ones. And I can assure to them that my time will spent wisely.

Ordinary dream

one night I saw you in my dreams
i didn't recognize your face and your lips
all I know that you're standing right next to me
who are you?
are you the guy who'll make my dreams come true?

why don't you show yourself up?
and don't be afraid coz i want
to know who you are please take care with me
are you for real?
or just an ordinary dream
i want to touch and look your face
and feel your warm embrace

i saw you walking on the street
wearing that beautiful smile
you look the same guy that used to know before
who are you?
are you the guy who'll make my dreams come true?

are you the guy I'm looking for?
want to come and share my world?

Summer Worries

I'm a little bit excited when I notice that it's almost the start of summer classes. I was delirious after the holy week. I prepared a lot of things. At that time I also got nervous if I'm going to fall in the hands of the spooky teachers. Anyway, I've got the wrong inference. It is the other way around. My teacher in my three subjects are not to much too handle.
As my summer classes start I was not able to adjust to my schedule. My sleeping habits affect this classes. And take note, I'm not used to wake up at 7 in the morning. I'm not a morning person. I usually start my day at 10 am or 12 noon. So I get up at 5 am and prepare myself to go to school. I always ended up taking a nap in the jeepneys. Sorry, can't help it! I also feel sleepy in the class that's why I get low grades for not being attentive. In the meantime, I realized that I don't like to have this kind of demeanor. Maybe the first week made me feel oh boring! I didn't have the motivation (what the?). So I don't dwell on the negative vibes. I told myself "hey get up sleepy head!". After two weeks, I am in the right track. I managed to get up early in the morning and prepare for the thing that will come my way.
