YOU'RE THE INSPIRATION (Chicago)
You know our love was meant to be
The kind of love that lasts forever
And I need you here with me
From tonight until the end of time You should know, everywhere I go
You're always on my mind,
in my heart In my soul You're the meaning in my life
You're the inspiration
You bring feeling to my life
You're the inspiration
Wanna have you near me
I wanna have you hear me sayin'
No one needs you more than I need you And I know, yes I know that it's plain to see
We're so in love when we're together
And I know that I need you here with me
From tonight until the end of time You should know, everywhere I go
You're always on my mind,
in my heart In my soul You're the meaning in my life
You're the inspiration
You bring feeling to my life
You're the inspiration
Wanna have you near me
I wanna have you hear me sayin'
No one needs you more than I need you |

Teeth - Darating
Minsan lang mangyayari sa atin ito
‘Di naman sinasadya, pero parang tayo
Ewan ko nga kung bakit nagkaganito
Basta’t sa iyo payag ako kahit ano
Kahit minsan lang darating
Mawawala pa ba ang minsan
Parang ayaw ko na kitang mawala
Minsan lang darating
Mawawala pa ba ang minsan
Wala na akong ibang mahihiling pa sa iyo
Basta’t tama na sa akin ang sinabi mo
Nung minsan ay hinihintay sa iyo
Sabihin ang nararamdamam
Masarap pakinggan, mahal mo rin ako
Kahit minsan lang darating
Mauulit pa ba ang minsan na sinabi
Sana marinig ko muli ang minsan |

Bagaman madali ang mga asignatura ko sa ikalawang markahan, binabagabag ako ng mga tanong na may kinalaman sa hangganan ng aking kakayahan. Oo, gusto ko ang kursong ito, ang mga asignatura, guro, ka-kurso, atbp. Wala na akong hihingin pa. Ngunit isa itong pagsubok, isang hamon kung nararapat bang papasukin ang taong katulad ko sa susunod na palapag. Ito ang mahal ko, ngunit nadarama ko ang existential angst, na hindi ko alam ang kahahantungn ng piniling landas. Sa kasalukuyan, may liwanag akong nakikita sapagkat nakakuha ako ng alas sa unang pagsusulit ni Natividad at lagi akong handa tuwing klase. Ngunit simula pa lamang ito. Dagok at hagod ang kailangan mga katoto.
May pangarap ako.
Puro papel ang markahang ito. Ka-akibat ng ligaya ang responsibilidad na tugunan at panindigan ang mga 'di inaasahang pangyayari na maaring bunga nito. Makasusulat na rin ako sa matagal ko nang inaasam-asam na paksa sa asignaturang Philosophy of Society - Ang isyu ng indibidwalismo at kolektibismo. Sa Sociology naman, mag-uulat kami ng aking kapwa pilosopo tungkol sa presyo ng pag-unlad ng ekonomiya. Bubulusok na ang pagiging left-wing at murakami-esque/chomsky-esque/(naomi) kleinesque ko. Putangina Napakaklaro pa rin sa aking alala ang araw na nag-ulat kami tungkol sa papel ng eksistensiyalismo, postmodernismo, konsumerismo, at left-wing na kritisismo ng kapitalismo noong nag-ulat ako sa panitikang Ingles mag-iisang taon na. Para bang nakalutang ako sa kalawakan habang kumukulo ang aking dugo. Babalik din ang pakiramdam na yan dahil binubuhay ako ng pilosopiya. |

Masaya naman kahapon. Mabilis yung enrollment and I was able to see some of my friends again. Nanood uli ako sa sine for the first time in like 7 months. I watched Zodiac with Tiff sa Gateway. Oi Tiff, kung binabasa mo eto gusto ko lang sabihin na ampanget mo pumili ng pelikula! Hahahaha. Loko lang ;) Nood nalang tayo ng magandang movie tulad ng Transformers next time. |

I've been very optimistic lately. Travelling and getting a lot of fresh air really helped. In addition, the Pistons' downfall and Lebron's Jordanesque performance made the atmosphere even better.
Tomorrow is enrollment day and I have to be in school by 7:30 am. Looking forward. Tiff and I have the same ETA so I guess we could hang around after and do some catching up.
I miss my Jesuit friends. Been a long time since I last saw them. And I will not see my Jesuit math teacher for two years because he's in the regency stage. Great. Just great. Well, I wish him the best. |

Just came from 7-11. Damn, those two newly-built clubs have filled Tomas Morato with wild foreigners (Koreans and Jamaicans?!?!) and ugly GROs. I miss last summer, wee hours of the morning and places like McDo and 7-11 were very quiet. But look at what we have here. Noisy sounds and GROs at Mcdo four in the morning. Miss the old days. But it wasn't that bad. Was still able to write on my journal. Mulling over different matters and jotting down what I observed. Hell, there was even a drunk wearing a fido-dido-hif-haf attire acting like a lunatic, dancing to the beat of Kamikaze's doobie doobie doo.
It's already June
Month when the new school year starts. Heavy workload, more opportunities to familiarize with the self, meet new people, and cultivate friendships. Of course it would be nice if I get to meet that ideal woman who has a mind of her own, a precocious girl who has a sense of depth well ahead of our time. But I don't know. I know that she's out there (yeah go for the cliche bastard) but sometimes I feel that it's an impossible find considering that media and cosumerism have given birth to an image-driven society. Yeah I'm going to say that I don't expect anything. But face it. We all expect something, to a certain extent, unconsciously. And the worst part of it is when you know that you've worked your ass off or went out of your way and it seems like you're not getting what you deserve; as if the laws of motion suddenly fucked-up in that split second. And these are the times when you question yourself (as well as your truthful and soul-revealing methods) because you begin to view things in a pragmatic perspective. It is interesting to note that this conflict gives birth to a philosophical conundrum. One asks "Should I conform with the mainstream method of the crowd or pursue with that burning conviction in the deepest regions of my mind, heart, and soul wherein I have a profound sense of my real self?" Subscribing to the first one can make the results more favorable but at the same time, your individuality is put into question because of the mentality "Hey, I'm part of the crowd, I'm using the method that is safe and conventional and it seems like all's good. I don't have to go through that moral deliberation wherein I scrutinize the situation and come up with an evaluation that is a product of my own reason and judgment" Subscribing to the second one can make one feel good because one retains his indivituality but seems to be disappointed with the results because it seems idealistic given the current situation. It goes something like "Hey I know who I am and I take pride by exercising my haven for creative lunacy. Fuck the crowd. If ever I end up with a decision which the majority advocate, it's because I used reason and sound judgment to arrive at that. I don't conform for the sake of conforming. Although I have an identity, I'm disappointed at the results and it's making me goddam old" Of course, this not-so-mainstream-perspective/idealism could pay-off when the time comes your wishes are granted and it's even more fulfilling because of the sense of fulfillment gained from the highs and lows of the waiting journey.
Ho-hum. Whatever. Why should I be thinking about these perplexing questions when I could say that the meaning of life is 42.
or
Why can't I just be a shallow guy, ignorant of these things and be happy talking about mundane things. Ignorance is bliss.
Well, to sum things up, there's only one thing I know. I've been given a gift. But at the same time, it's a curse. |

Will start exercising later since I need to lose about 7-12 lbs to be in perfect shape. Hope I'll be able to burn a lot of fat in the remaining two weeks. Crash course na toh. Pero tingin ko naman kaya dahil I was able to lose 20+ lbs last summer. And ewan ko. Kapag malusog ang katawan ko, malusog din ang utak ko. Tama yata yung saying sa Spanish na healthy body = healthy mind.
Nabasa ko sa yahoo sports na mukhang itetrade na si basketball god. Sana magkatotoo yun kasi seryosong walang kuwenta ang team niya. Okey naman si Lamar Odom pero nagkaclash yung styles nila ni Kobe. Si Andrew Bynum potential pero it may take him a few more years. Si Walton matalino naman maglaro at feeling ko si Farmar gagaling pa if you give him a few more years. Pero the rest? Supot. Seryoso. Kahit management ng Lakers supot. Mitch Kupchak itetrade ang all-star na si Caron Butler para kay KWAME BROWN. Smush Parker = BEST STARTING PG EVER. Chris Mihm *ehem*. Huwattanacquisition! 'Nuff said. Basta sana i-trade talaga si Kobe. Kung mangyare yun.... MVP at championship (sana) na toh.
Oi J-Lo! Labas naman jan oh. Tangina miss ko na mga kagaguhan mo eh. |

Online enlistment in a little more than hour. Thank God I have a good random number. At least I can choose a decent time slot for PE, Science, and NSTP. My Fil 14 was moved to first sem since I already advanced Spanish last year. My Eng 12 was moved to second sem. Damn, I no longer have that extra free elective since I already burned it by not advancing a subject during summer (students in basic eng are required to advance another subject during summer). Those extra 3 units could've been used for a class on Karl Marx. Ah fuck. Should've been more cirsumspective when I took the acet. Damn, I still remember how I forgot to answer twenty numbers and passed an almost blank essay. Well, I'm happy that Fil's first sem. Another chance to meet people outside the block.

Tapos na ang summer classes. Okay lang naman. Pakiramdam ko talaga na hindi nag-exist ang summer in terms of academic load. Pero masaya naman ako dahil I made some really good friends.
Ilang linggo nalang at sophomore na ako.
Nako. Anjan na ang mga major subjects tulad ng accounting at stat. So mukhang kinakailangang magmatino na ako ngayon. 25 units (kasama ang PE at NSTP). Pero at the same time, I'm looking forward dahil tingin ko maraming mangyayare. Magiging emotional daw ang taong ito according to my lola who is a geomancer. Ewan. Mahirap yatang mangyare yun. Nag-iba na rin ang konsepto ko ng pag-ibig. |

[May. 23rd, 2007|12:09 am] |
Lit = Pointless. I did not learn a single thing from the lectures of my teacher. Pinoy style. Typical just-read-and-you-listen-and-you're-safe-when-the-test-comes-and-you-can-forget-this-forgettable-matter-after kind of approach. So systematic, mechanical, definitive, safe, and conventional. Talk about superficial. There is no room for ideas that penetrate the surface of the text under his tuttelage. So it looks like I'll end up with a satisfactory grade. He's nowhere near Ms. Thomas. Am really thankful that she was my teacher in the previous lit course. She has a mind of her own and does a good job of doing deep shit. Yeah, I miss all those times when I cut Math and had Existentialism crap convos with her.
ITM = Ayos naman. Nakakasundo ko ang teacher ko dahil mahilig siya sa NBA. And nachallenge talaga ako dun sa 50-point exam niya kanina na confident ako sa mga sagot ko except for one item. So nagpapasalamat ako for ITM dahil tingin ko talaga na stepping stone ito para higit na ma-appreciate ko ang mga nagagawa ng computer.
Okei puta may exam pa ako sa lit mamaya at tinatamad ako mag-aral dahil nabobore ako kaya mukhang C+ nanaman makukuha ko. |

Before anything else, I just want to great my good friend Tiff a Happy Birthday :). Wish you well in all your endeavors my friend :).
It has been exactly one year since that fateful day happened and I still remember the details of it. I can honestly say that I learned a lot from the entire experience. It only becomes a failure if you end up learning nill. Yes, I've changed. A lot. Aside from losing a lot of weight, I think (and feel maybe?) that I've changed for the better. Even though I am still a lazy fuck, I am able to concentrate more on the task at hand. I've grown in the sense that I'm using my head more than my heart. Guess it also has something to do with the impression of what college life is - the real world (or a preview of it at least). And you really have to be strong for yourself. Yes, there are always people out there who can help you in this or that but at the end of the day, you have to paddle your own canoe. The world will keep on spinning and it will not wait for you. One thing I learned is that those who use their head and can control their emotions are the ones who survive during crunch time. It's one thing to feel and be dictated by impulse. It's another thing to feel and be aware of it. Falling prey to the first one makes you ask all the what could've beens, what should've beens, and the what would have beens when you look back in retrospect. Ayn Rand made a breakthrough insight when she gave an analysis of the mind's power. Just look at the different inventions that served as a starting point for the advances in the field of science and technology. There are those intellectuals (philosophers, writers, psychologists) who have had a major influence in shaping the minds of a particular group of people. Germany would not have been a united nation had it not been for Herder. Results of possible heart attacks would have remained in jeopardy had it not been for Goldman's algorithm. And there's also Rizal who opened the eyes of the Filipino people. Well she still said a lot of things but her main point is that the mind is so powerful and that there are so many things that can work in your favor (depending on how you use it). It also leaves a footprint.
Quote of the morning
"As soon as he gives a thing a name he ceases to see the thing itself; he only hears the name that he gave it or sees it written. His language enables him to falsify, to invent what does not exist, and to confuse himself. For him everything is a pretext for talking to men or far talking to himself" - Orfeo the dog from Miguel de Unamuno's Mist |

Okei naman. Dragging nga lang yung ITM class ko since I took the 3 hour crash course. Hindi na rin ako masyadong nagbabasa dahil ang sabog talaga ng sleeping time ko. Kahit na sobrang pagod ang katawan ko hirap pa rin ako makatulog paminsan-minsan.
Gusto ko nang matapos ang summer classes. I just want to relax my mind bago before june 13. |

Talagang natatawa ako sa NBA ngayon. Kalokohan. Ang dumi-dumi maglaro ng San Antonio tapos magiging legalistic sila sa ginawa ni Amare at Diaw. Minsan iniisip ko dapat maglaro si Pat Burke for 1 minute tapos tiyempuhan niya si duncan malapit sa scorer's table at sadyang itatapon sa 3rd row ng crowd. Kung masibak man si Burke sa NBA, no big deal. PERO kung magretaliate si Duncan at masuspend kahit isang game lang.... OYE! Natatawa ako dahil pati si Poppovich nakikisawsaw sa maruming laro ng spurs. Sige lang Greggy. Gawin mo pang understatement ang flagrant foul ni Horry. Sige lang David Stern, pabayaan lang natin si Bruce Bowen kahit na may ugali siyang ilagay ang kanyang paa sa ilalim ng paa ng isang air-borne baller para lang ma-injure tulad nung nangyare kay Steve Francis. Sige lang at pasipain mo si Bowen sa series na ito.
NBA regulations are fucked-up.
Pero mas may fucked-up pa.
