For Nanay- song on her retirement

 

For Nanay

 

For the sacrifices you rendered us

For everything in us

We owe it to you

Oooh

To you

 

For the cries and laughters

For the comfort and care

We thank you

Ooohh

Thank you

 

Pre-chorus

And with every darkness

You showed us the light

When we stumble you carried

Us with your might

And with this song

We want the whole world to know

That everything we have

We owe it to you

 

Chorus:

You opened our heart

You opened our minds

Made sure that everything is worthwhile

You showed us the road

You teach us to have faith

Made sure that everything is all right

And this is for you

This is for you

And we thank you

Ooh... we thank you

 

The winds may have struggled to crumble your faith

But you stood ahead like no other

And with every tinge of hope you tried to grasp

And share it with us, with the fullest love

 

Pre Chorus

Chorus

Refrain

Blessed with the heart of mercy

Blessed with a kindred soul

Blessed are we by you

Forever this is definitely true

This is for you

 

Chorus.

 

 

 

 

TIME FLIES

March 03, 2006

 

 

 

I share your sentiments... Heck, I love this country... But every time I ponder on  things that have been happening to our nation, I couldn’t help myself but be guilty about whether I have done my best to protect the interests or the essence of being a Filipino. I never wanted to leave this country because I believe that instead of rendering my services to foreign land, I would rather give my best shot here... But instead of willfully-willing to work for our government, particularly the DSWD... my services were denied because I was too young to work for them... huh?! Of course I was disappointed, but I still have my hopes intact...

          Given these political issues, I could not help to condemn PGMA with how ill-rotten our economy has become... How defamed our country has been to the entire globe... I want her out of office... She is an incompetent leader... She is not the best to sit in that chair... She is USELESS! I have thought over assassinating her myself.. Bwahaha....

          REALITY CHECK please.... who would take over her seat?! As previously mentioned, here’s the list of options--- ERAP? LACSON? SUSAN? GUINGONA? PIMENTEL? VILLANUEVA?  HONASAN? DRILLON? KA NOLI? LEGARDA? If that happens, could we be another laughing stock of the whole world?! Hahaha... More or less... Next in line... and we all know it,  are just another batch of incompetent leaders...

Face IT! We could not just OUST our president, it is unconstitutional! Even if she will face impeachment trials... it would take LONGER than her entire term or perhaps her entire life... I have not much faith in our judicial system...  

Relating our country to my previous employment.... I could see PGMA in the icon of my ‘defunct headmistress princess’. I have suddenly become so religious that I have put my entire faith to GOD to help her realize that every one else under her are suffering deeply from emotional-verbal torture. I have wished for her to change so that we could work peacefully and productively. But perhaps I have been a bad child because my ‘cry-for-injustice’ came unnoticed... Then I said SAYONARA mesuinu coz I could no longer wait for my ‘manna from heaven’. Thus, instead of facing my own demons, I walked away from it... I could have said this and that... But I didn’t! And I choose not to...

And it had me thinking... could I help save this country? I could not even step my best feet forward.

 

 

 

 

 

LOOKING BACK

December 19, 2005

 

 

I’m crying

Tears are kept inside

Burning the very soul of me

Flesh aching

Of sorrows unexplainable

Of unspoken madness

 

How three little words could pierce you madly?

Giving up logic for it

Exchanging  freedom and happiness

For an existence so miserable

 

 

I want to cry but I don’t want to…. It’s pathetic, what for? And why not? Nobody would understand, nobody would listen, nobody would care. I always thought that I have someone whom I could rely on. And yet, later in life I was fooled by the very illusion I refused to see. How pathetic, I was not clueless. I have always seen that he has the potential to hurt me. I have always been aware of his capability to ache me so much. I have been conscious and yet, I let him puncture me wounds of impossible healing.  I am bleeding to death… crying to death.. shouting…. Oooh, the agony I feel. So wretched, so sad, so life less…

 

 

 

 

HOW TO CATCH A LIAR

 

 

Expansion & Contraction: A liar tends to expand contractions: “I didn’t stay up all night surfing those porn sites” becomes “I did not stay up all night surfing those porn sites,” with an indignant look thrown in for good measure.

B-b-b-bad To The Bone: A liar might stutter, stammer, and otherwise wrap his tongue around his forehead.

Pause & Insert Here: A liar may pause and insert odd, non-word sounds into his speech to fill the uncomfortable silence. Ah, er, um, oh and sometimes duh are a liar’s vowels.

Grunts & Groans: A liar might clear his throat often and make other strange, guttural noises.

Let Me Qualify This: A liar tends to make judicious use of namsey-pamsey qualifiers such as ‘however,’ ‘sometimes,’ and ‘generally,’ stitching his fast-and-loose excuses with this limp, verbal pasta.

Could You Repeat That?: A liar might repeat the question you just asked in order to buy time.

A Trapped Rat: Once cornered, a liar will probably deny he’s lying. He’ll claim with a nasally whine and a pounding fist, that that he has no reason to lie. Uh-huh. You know better – he has every reason to lie.

Smooth Talker: A liar might talk fast. And smoothly and convincingly. Hey, no one said this was easy.
