Incubus - HERE IN MY ROOM
it's normal for people to see nothing else but the
person s/he likes, but you're a more intense
case. it's a whole lot deeper so whenever you
see her/him, it's just... wow.
you're deep and tantalizing... just like him/her.

Pisces
Turn ons
Pisces are very sensitive and charming people. If you are looking for someone who is understanding and can understand your feelings then you have met the right person. You should appreciate their feelings too and in the time when you need them they will help you. Pisces have keenly developed sixth sense and have great intuitive powers. Their hunches may usually be on the mark. But they can exhaust their physical and mental energies. They are born dreamers and you can build palaces with your dream lover (only in real life it may become a little difficult preposition).
Turn offs
Pisces are dreamers and you should not expect them to have worldly ambitions. They are not materialistic in nature. It is not that they like living below the poverty line but they have no earnest desire to accumulate wealth. They are very sensitive and you have to be always careful about their feelings. The fishes are capable of drowning you in their tears (even men born under this sign). Pisces people are very intuitive but do not depend on them to make decision on important matters

tralalalala
June 5, 2004
ladies and gentlemen, i would like to announce to each and everyone of you that as of today, i am now an officialherherher. as if you guys care.
the Journalese is te official publication of UST's Journalism Society. we were just asked to attend a series of workshop and then, voila! instant staffers. herher. the workshop was fun. i learned loads. it's kinda funny coz i learned more substancial lessons in two days than in a whole semester with miss Blanco. and i told them so.
it was great, i met lotsa cool and funny people. they weren't nerdy and geekish as i expected. sure, some were a little weird but most of them were okay.
i'm kinda hoping i'd get to be an editor, but i don't think i can make it. my writing's not good enough.
but hey, at least i'm a staffer now. good enough for me. herher.

weird (and pointless) traditions
June 8, 2004
last night, while i was watching Mano Po on Cinema One, someone said a line about the tradition of pagmamano, which is supposed to be a sign of respect.
i apoligize to those who might find my opinion impolite, but i think the whole mano thing is just a bunch of pretense and bullshit.
and it's not that i have anything against respect for elders, no. it's just that there are times when parents even spank their kids when they forget to mano, and i don't understand how they'd prefer to hurt their children over such a trivial thing. i don't know about you guys, but i firmly believe that respect is not earned through fear, but through love and trust. and i'd much rather recieve a sweet kiss and peals of laughter from my kids rather than a formal and forced mano.
and another thing that i kinda find pointless, is that church on Sundays thingie. and once again let me make it clear that i don't have anything against religion. but what if, hypothetically, i want to go to church on Mondays for whatever reason, like, maybe i find that i can pray better because less people are inside the church. as long as i set aside a day of worship why would it matter if it isn't Sunday? it's not the time and day, or the position of the person that matters. you could be kneeling or lying down or standing up, you could be inside a museum or a restaurant or a disco, but so what? what really counts is the sincerity of the person.
*sigh* sometimes it's so hard being in a society: you have to comply with the people's self-imposed rules and norms.
not me. i will never change my opinions to please other people.
Currently feeling: hrrrmm..

tinolang manok
June 19, 2004
hindi ba kayo natatawa kung kunyari, ako, may tinanong ako:
ako: anong ulam niyo?
siya: tinolang manok
ako: *trying not to laugh* ah, okay.
minsan kasi natatawa ako sa term na yun. TINOLANG MANOK. hindi ko lang sigurado, pero sa pagkakaalam ko kasi wala namang tinolang baboy. o tinolang baka. o tinolang itlog. o tinolang tilapya. o tinolang galonggong. bakit kaya hindi nalang sabihing tinola? herher.
*pasensya na kayo. malakas lang talaga ang trip ko ngayon kaya kahit ang babaw natatawa ako.
harharhar.

first two weeks
June 19, 2004
it's only been two weeks, and i can already feel the pressure. junior year in college is simply HECTIC. hellish. not to mention our new sked is so different from our old one. we even have classes that lasts till 9. not that i mind that, not really. not yet, anyway.
oh well,:THE PERKS: ¤ we only see our respective professors once a week.
¤ lessons are not boring. demanding, more like.
¤ our professors this time are seemingly competent. thank goodness.
¤ dismissal is 9 in the evening, so not heat when travelling home.
then:
CONS: ¤ loaded with work. already.
¤ class hours are too long.
still, i'm glad to be back in school. it's better than the long boring days i spend at home doing nothing.
Currently feeling: hmp.

brain usage test
June 19, 2004
Your Brain Usage Profile:
Auditory : 40%
Visual : 60%
Left : 44%
Right : 55%
No matter which side of your brain is dominant, M i n d W a r e
can strengthen your emotional brain power by helping you understand how you feel about yourself.
camz, you possess an interesting balance of hemispheric and sensory characteristics, with a slight right-brain dominance and a slight preference for visual processing.
Since neither of these is completely centered, you lack the indecision and second-guessing associated with other patterns. You have a distinct preference for creativity and intuition with seemingly sufficient verbal skills to be able to translate in any meaningful way to yourself and others.
You tend to see things in "wholes" without surrendering the ability to attend to details. You can give them sufficient notice to be able to utitlize and incorporate them as part of an overall pattern.
In the same way, while you are active and process information simultaneously, you demonstrate a capacity for sequencing as well as reflection which allows for some "inner dialogue."
All in all, you are likely to be quite content with yourself and your style although at times it will not necessarily be appreciated by others. You have sufficient confidence to not second-guess yourself, but rather to use your critical faculties in a way that enhances, rather than limits, your creativity.
You can learn in either mode although far more efficiently within the visual mode. It is likely that in listening to conversations or lecture materials you simultaneously translate into pictures which enhance and elaborate on the meaning.
It is most likely that you will gravitate towards those endeavors which are predominantly visual but include some logic or structuring. You may either work particularly hard at cultivating your auditory skills or risk "missing out" on being able to efficiently process what you learn. Your own intuitive skills will at times interfere with your capacity to listen to others, which is something else you may need to take into account.
take ittoo.

strangled
June 22, 2004
i am an only child.
that is a blessing in a lot of ways but kind of a curse in some cases. my mom and i are very close. not in the way that i tell her every detail of my life, most of the time, i don't tell her anything at all. but i protect her in ways that she doesn't know, that very few people sees. i take care of her in little ways, in ways that may even be considered invaluable. she does everything for me, i love her very much.
but recently, i got to thinking that i'm almost out of my teens already, and i never really got to explore my life that well, never really enjoted my teenage/rebel years. i've never been able to stay out really late or gotten drunk (i don't drink) or just really, you know, chilled. part of the reason is that my mom never lets me stay out later thatn 10pm, except in some special occasions (acquaintance parties, debut, etc.), and another reason is that even if i did, i would not enjoy much coz i'll spend the whole night worrying about my mom.
you see, my mom depends on me a lot. sometimes when i'm away and she's left at home, she won't eat till i get back. she's scared of ghosts. that's how much my mom and i are bound.
i feel confused. i really love my mom, but sometimes i just feel so suffocated.
Currently feeling: kinda gloomy..

adik
June 26, 2004
i am addicted.
it all started a few months ago when i had nothing to do and nothing else to look forward to. it was dark, it was cold, and i was lonely. i needed something to amuse me. i need it desperately. i tried to distract myself, but its luring force captivated me. i cannot resist. the blissful temptation of forgetting all my troubles and just go with the sweet hapiness of being in another world is just too much for me.
i gave in.
and now i can't stop. my eyes are red and baggy, like i'm not sleeping at all. almost always i'm listless, and most of the time, i'm off in another paradise.
punyeta, adik ako sa nickelodeon.

writing: a view from the neutral ground
June 29, 2004
it has been many months since i first signed up to tabulas, and i have to say, i've seen many different types of writers. there are the deep types, the critics, those who simply want an outlet for their angst, the complainers, poets, graphic enhancers (ahem, denn), etcetera, etcetera..but i think there is a bigger division between all these types of bloggers that have caught my attention for quite a few times now, and i think you would all agree when i say that the continously heating debate between those who say that writing should be for one's self (without giving a damn for comments) and those who write to see what others think of their entries are seriously getting worse.
to put it simply, i've seen some tabulas members who are so into the common i-write-for-myself-and-for-no-one-else attitude that sometimes, in my opinion, they kind of take it overboard to the point that they are sometimes offensive. and i've seen more than a few users who are so into knowing what others think of their writing that they ask/request/beg for comments. please, don't get me wrong, i find them irritating too, but not because of the fact that they want to know what others think of their entries, but because of the way they're asking for it.
here's my bit. i signed up for tabulas for several reasons. one: yes, it is a great way to express my opinions; two: since my mom is not so into computers my entries are safe from her prying eyes; and three: because of the commenting bit, i get a chance to see my writing from the eyes of other users- i get to know my faults and improve on them.
i can't help feeling a little..eh.. when i see someone say that writing is solely for self-expression. for me it's like saying you wrote a book and you don't care what others think of it. and to those who are desperate for comments, they may be begginners and want someone to approve of their writing.
i guess i can say that this is where that old saying is cue, you know, live and let live and all..
and no offense to everyone. just my two cent's worth. peace.

The Philippines is an archipelago with over 7,000 islands located about 805 km off the southeast coast of Asia. The Philippines has several wonderful vacation spots: Boracay, Baguio, Palawan, and lots of other
paradise-like haunts. Join us as we take you to the wonders of
Paradise Philippines.

The Philippine flag was first conceptualized by Emilio Aguinaldo. The first flag was sewn in Hong Kong by Marcela de Agoncillo, her daughter Lorenza, and Dona Delfina Herbosa de Natividad, a niece of Jose Rizal, the Philippines' national hero. The flag is displayed with the blue field on top in times of peace, and with the red field on top in times of war. (Source: Wikipedia)
