Merry Christmas!

Yes, I’m still alive! I haven’t really written much for several weeks now, but surely will in the days to come. Too busy, couldn’t even time to edit and post Christmas photos, so I’m recycling those I posted a year ago. Merry Christmas everyone. 🙂

Holding hands

Have you ever held hands with someone for an infinitesimal instance and feel the heaven’s beauty and greatness manifest itself in the same seemingly evanescent yet phenomenally undying moment? A second or two of physical tangency that briefly puts you in a state of delirium and makes you want to shout, “this is what I […]

With a smile

It’s that time again. I have a river of ideas yearning to break free, but I’m too pre-occupied with daily matters that I wish I could just get them out of the way. I’m doing some markup optimizations on the side for an online magazine, and I’m shamefully delayed in gettings things done — sorry. […]

Can We Just Stop And Talk A While

Fancy meeting you alone in the crowd Couldn’t help but notice your smile While everybody else around us is going about Can we just stop and talk awhile? I’ve been often told our world’s growing old And that friends are harder to find Do tell me more about yourself We could share a thought or […]

The girl in the yellow shirt

Yes, that could be you. I really don’t know why, but since I saw you watching our basketball game last Friday night, I’ve been having problems hiding this huge smile on my face, and I end up looking forward to having lunch everyday. I’ve been dying to get your number, but I couldn’t muster the […]

Wazzup, wazzup!

I haven’t been writing again, probably because I’m too busy especially with this battle with COBOL programming. It’s like raising a dinosaur, I must say. Last Friday, I finally got to see Wimbledon with her, and it was a great feel–good movie to top a great night. If you’re going out on a date, take […]

Tonight I can write the saddest lines

Tonight I can write the saddest lines. Write for example, ‘The night is shattered and the blue stars shiver in the distance.’ The night wind revolves in the sky and sings. Tonight I can write the saddest lines. I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too. Through nights like this one I held her […]

Love

In love na naman ba ako? Hahaha. Today, my sister Charla celebrates her 23rd birthday. I’d love to get her an mp3 player, like an iPod, but I couldn’t even afford one for myself. 🙁 So for now, Happy Birthday my dear Cha-cha! 🙂 I’ll just share with you this beautiful passage: Love is patient, […]

Living and dying

Death is inevitable. A few days ago, Richard Avedon—one of history’s greatest photographers—has moved on to the afterlife. He leaves us some of the world’s most striking portraits. Now if you’ve been watching the local news a few hours ago, you probably know why I’m writing about dying and living. Less than 24 hours ago, […]

You make me want to be a better man

Reading peyups articles has this mystic consequence of suddenly taking you to some remote valley of human emotion. I was busy with this funny collection of college–related nuggets of information, as well as this painfully beautiful love article and this excellent review of Charlie Kaufman’s Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind; and by the end […]
