christmas card for the housemates

my yearend message to my housemates.  since i'm not good in expressing my thoughts verbally - i wrote it all down.  pasensya na. i'm maarte that way =D

Rachelle.

although we didn't get to talk as much as before, we both know we're here for each other.  thank you for understanding my shortcomings.  and i just want you to know how proud i am for seeing you get to where you are right now.  words are not enough to express how much i am really happy for you.  and your awards / plaques are just one way of telling you that your hardwork has paid off.  and that recognition is worth more, way more than all the gifts you had this Christmas.  i can only wish you one thing and you know it already.  i love you dear cousin =)

Erol.

you know how much i tried to dig in deep into your personal life because you don't open up as much as we do.  it's only because we want to get to know you better. we could only go as much as what you share, and that's enough for us.  i just want to know i'm just here (you got no choice, i'm your housemate - i'm always around. hahaha jk) anything you need - i'm just one text away.  i've no other wish for you, because in every path you'll take i'm sure you're going to nail it because your intelligence in anything and everything comes out effortless.  i'm happy you chose us to be your housemates, instead of that sexy star and his lover =P

Nhamay.

you are a great girl, a great catch, and any guy will be lucky to have you.  there are many fields that you excel in and i hope next year you get to do everything that you want to pursue.  just in case you need a companion, a listener, i'm just here. i just couldn't do one more thing though - i can't give you a massage using my weight by stepping on your back.  afraaaiiiid hahahahaa.  kidding aside, give yourself time to enjoy life's pleasures and have fun spending all the fruits of your labor.  you deserve to be happy.  2012 is going to be a fabulous year for you - start claiming it. =)

Ardel.

you of all the housemates know how much of a stoneheart i have.  i do not cry on tv and movies when i'm with the four of you.  the only time you saw me crying (twice) was because of you and your story.  i am sooooo proud of what you have achieved this year.  and you deserve every bit of success you're having right now.  and to top it all, you never forget to look back to where you were before and help out in every way you can.  please continue being this headstrong and generous man that you are.  i love you, you know that.  God has always been good, but He was extremely great to you this year.  until next year, i can't wait doing more adventures with you.

famous last words:

"2012 is mine.  I'm gonna carpe the fuck out of the diem."

question of the day:

what are the three words you would use to describe yourself?



PVD -->  "loving, lovable, and."

i love that there are plenty of ways to help for the victims of typhoon Sendong. i hope that they will continue doing it for more than a month because it's going to take a while for people in CDO and Iligan to recover. but first things first -- let's pray for  quick recovery, both of the people and of the nation.

tell 'em ladies (from the movie 'Amelie')

"I like to look for things no one else catches."

tell 'em ladies (from the movie "Breakfast at Tiffany's")

"I'm like cat here, a no-name slob. We belong to nobody, and nobody belongs to us."

tell 'em ladies (from the tv series 'Sex and the City')

"And then I realized something, twenty-something girls are just fabulous, until you see one with the man who broke your heart."

tell 'em ladies (from the movie 'Almost Famous')

"It's all happening!"

what the cat is telling you.

1.  My life is likely to last 10 to 15 years.  Any separation from you will be painful.  Remember that before you get me. 

2.  Give me time to understand what you want of me.

3.  Place your trust in me - it is crucial to my well-being.

4.  Do not be angry at me for long, and do not lock me up as punishment.

5.  You have your work, your entertainment, and your friends.  I only have you.

6.  Talk to me sometimes.  Even if I don't understand your words, I understand your voice when you are speaking to me.

7.  Be aware that however you treat me, I will never forget.

8.  Remember before you hit me that I have teeth that could easily hurt you, but I choose not to bite you because I love you.

9.  Before you scold me for being uncooperative, obstinate or lazy, ask yourself if something might be bothering me.  Perhaps I might not be getting the right food, or my heart is getting too old and weak.

10. Take care of me when I get old; you too will grow old.  Go with me on difficult journeys.  Never say: "I cannot bear to watch" or "Let it happen in my absence".  Everything is easier for me if you are there, even my death.  Remember that I love you.

sugar come on, show your soul -- you've been keeping your love under control..

Afterhours (Taken by Cars)  (--click to see the vid)



A color blind imagery
Can you see it half full or is the glass
Half empty
The lights transmit a certain kind
Of wanting to absent my mind
From all that I see

I'm all made up of missing parts
A string of tortured souls and hearts
They start to...

Give me a sign
A chance to realize
Drift away as the time flies
See the world through perfect eyes



I wonder what it's like
Walking down the street with you
I laugh myself senseless at everything I do
The moments make a memory
A longing for what used to be
Let it go.

A thousand reasons to look back
The never-ending heart attack
It starts to...

Give me a sign
A chance to realize
Drift away as the time flies
See the world through perfect eyes

I'm changing away
Close your eyes and open
Tonight the edges fray
Share this day with me and listen
And let it go
