POUR TU

my all time favorite maroon 5 song, must get out...







I’ve been the needle and the thread
Weaving figure eights and circles round your head
I try to laugh but cry instead
Patiently wait to hear the words you’ve never said

Fumbling through your dresser door forgot what I was looking for
Try to guide me in the right direction
Making use of all this time
Keeping everything inside
Close my eyes and listen to you cry

I’m lifting you up
I’m letting you down
I’m dancing til dawn
I’m fooling around
I’m not giving up
I’m making your love
This city’s made us crazy and we must get out

This not goodbye she said
It is just time for me to rest my head
She does not walk she runs instead
Down these jagged streets and into my bed

Fumbling through your dresser door forgot what I was looking for
Try to guide me in the right direction
Making use of all this time
Keeping everything inside
Close my eyes and listen to you cry

I’m lifting you up
I’m letting you down
I’m dancing til dawn
I’m fooling around
I’m not giving up
I’m making your love
This city’s made us crazy and we must get out

There’s only so much I can do for you
After all of the things you put me through

RESURRECTING KUBRICK


this month's cover of pulp magazine features ely buendia's band pupil in a photo shoot inspired by stanley kubrick's a clockwork orange ..the band were all dressed up like the hooligan alex and his notorious droogs.isn't it cute! when mon and i saw this issue in booksale, we screamed in unison like some crazy canines being hit by a speeding sedan.i'm not a pulp fan, but i think i'm gonna grab a copy of this one. talk about effective marketing strategy *wink*...

YEARBOOK, YEHEY!

i've been to marbie's place yesterday (the extremely kindhearted elmar bien.. i owe you one, dear *wink*) to get my precious yearbook. and as expected, adobe photoshop and adroit layouting made my miniscule space in this annual something to brag about.



happy?bliss?haggard?you guess..(note:notice the eyes)


below is the graduation picture use for the annual that was taken almost a year ago, and this is how i look like with all the retouches. photoshop is a manna from heaven for all the zombie-esque students rushing to finish their thesis but still have to look breathtakingly gorgeous for their graduation photographie (yes, i use the work correctly) *wink*..

this is me now. raw, un-photoshoped (if there's such term) and looking two years younger..hehe...(notice the hair, its auburn..oo, wag ng makulit!hehe)



looks like the UP umbical cord had already been clipped the moment i got my annual. talagang mukhang wala na akong babalikan don..oh i almost forgot, UP still held hostage my diploma.hehehe...*wink*

LICK THE STAR
by SOFIA COPPOLA

the very first short movie by sofia coppola, lick the star has some resemblance with her debut full lenght movie the virgin suicides...is it just me or sofia really has an affinity to emotionally detached and socially isolated adolescent girls?hmm...since youtube.com can't hold a video of almost 15 minutes (i assume), this short movie was cut in two part..and as for the soundtrack, it is amazing as always...*wink* enjoy!

lick the star (part 1)

ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF MY STAID MIND

movie clips from the eternal sunshine of the spotless mind are lingering in my head. its soundtrack resonating as well. for some reason i can't help but once again fall deep to gondry's mastery. to quote kirsten dunst's character who quoted alexander pope's poem Eloisa to Abelard:

How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd ...

is this reminiscing a reflection of my emotional state right now? maybe yes..maybe no... maybe i'm just a quintessential cinephile romanticizing life.*wink*

SA AKING PAGBABALIK




ako'y nagbalik. bukas kamay akong tinanggap ni oble. aking binalikan ang ilang bahagi ng makulay kong buhay kolehiyo.

sarado ang USC, doon daw kukunin ang yearbook. nyemas! nagikot na lang ako at naghanap ng mga kakilala, kung mayroon pang naiiwan.

sabi ko dati dito ako sa lobby ng rizal hall magde-debut. at sa hagdaan don ako bababa suot ang grandiyoso kong gown. yun ang ilusyon ko tuwing bumababa sa hagdan na ito. kumakaway pa ako habang bumababa, ala sandara.

at kung maisipan kong magpakamatay, dahil sabrang korni ng idea na mag-debut, dito din ako sa RH stairs magpapatiwakal. yan ang top view ng RH stairs mula sa third floor. itatali ko lang ang pisi si poste at viola, pwede na kong mamatay.hekhek.
bago ang klase kay carl (Diplomatic ang Consular Practice), dito muna kami. nagbibilang ng cute na dadaan. nakikipagkwentuhan sa mga classmate. nginangarag ang assignment kay carl, o kaya ang proposal sa thesis. kumakaway sa prof na dumadaan.
(d)epartment of social sciences bulletin board. tiningnan ko, baka sakalaing may nakapost na assignment si carl o kaya si sir bobby. ay wala na pala. kung meayroon man, imposibleng para sa amin.
nanamiss ang mga progresibong poster na tulad ng mga ito na malayang naikakabit sa mga bulletin board ng UP. hindi ko napigilang basahin ang bawat isa sa kanila. namalayan ko na lang, nakangiti na pala ako habang tinititigan ang quintessential caricature ni GMA. nakakapanibago din ang freedom wall. dahil ba sa newly installed drinking fountain o dahil pristine na ang pader na dati ay tadtad ng opinyon ng mga mag-aaaral?

at ang finale, ang aking mga paboritong tambayan: ang library at ang mga bench sa hallway sa may behsci.mag a-alas 6 na ng pumunta ko kaya wal ng tao sa lib. wala ng ring mga naiwang gamit sa counter. clear na din ang hallway.sa ganitong panahon ko gustong tumambay dito. i am tempted to sit for a couple of minutes, pero naalala ko wala na pala akong klaseng hihintayin.
lumabas ako ng gate, mabigat ang bag ko as usual. pucha tatlong readings kay sir bobby, isang 20-page double- spaced essay ang pinapagawa ni sir doti, isama mo pa ang journal ni carl,may cases pa na dapat basahin kay chicky! hay kailangan ng umuwi para matapos na sila. ay oo nga pala, wala na ngang ganoon mga gawain para sa akin. tapos na ang sentensya ko at ako ay nakalabas na pala. bumalik ako sa lugar pero hindi sa nakaraan, ika nga ni bob ong.
c'est tres nostalgique...

EXPRESS KUMENTO vol 3

if you can't beat them, join them ika nga. pero sa kaso ng panibagong impeachment complaint "laban" kay GMA, dapat barubal ang version para you beat them pa rin. para sa akin, it is just a desperate attempt to save "their majesty" from another serious, more substantial impeachment complaint. nakakatawa lang kasi parang sobrang desperado na sila. but whoever thought of this comical idea, panalo! kudos, man! napakaingenious! nagamit mo ang matagal ng dictum ng mga taong naging adik dahil sawa na sila sawayin ang mga kapatid/kaibigan/magulang/whoever nila na adik. wahahahahahaha!!!

on a serious note, the fact that they (whoever they are) allegedly filed a weak impeachment complaint is a recognition that there is still a great possibility that GMA will be put to another impeachment hullabaloo. ay goodluck na lang sayo day!

WHEN PEBI MEETS JAYSON*


wala na kong social life. i do love my work pero wala akong kausap. once a week i give myself a tongue work out but still wala pa din akong kinakausap sa mga kasama ko (nasanay na siguro). kaya naman i make it a point na makipagkita sa mga kaibigan after ng workout every saturday. kaya naman ako ay nakipagbonding this saturday with jayson (last week si ditch ang kasama ko kahit na hanep ang bagyo. yeboi!mabuhay ang 1945 ditch!goodluck sa finals!). at ito nga ang resulta ng aming paglalakbay sa lugar ng payaso at mga weirdo.

syempre dahil lunch time kami nagkita, foodtrip galore muna. en route a rodic's. tig dalawa kaming tapsilog. tama ang nabasa nyo, tig dalawa!gutom akong bata kaya kelangang kumain, sya naman miss na daw ang rodic's (o baka iba ang namimiss. yihi!).




before and after



amin yang plato na walang laman sa unang pic. hindi yan napagkanan ng kung sino. matakaw ba?hindi...gutom lang kami..


at syempre kelangan magdessert. at ito ang mga nilantakan namin:

AKIN-- fishball,ube-buko shake, buko juice

JAYSON-- kwekwek, grape-apple shake

ang mga iyan ay kinain namin sa labas ng chapel..NOTE:hindi kami nagkalat sa chapel.pramis





before and after 2 (sabing hindi kami matakaw!)



kung saan saan kami tinangay ng aming mga paa: sa film institure, sa bernal hall (na nasa likod lamang ng film institute), sa carillion (yung may mga bell?tama ba spelling?), sa tambayan nila jayson, sa palma hall, sa chapel, sa shopping, sa pwesto ng isawan na wala pang isaw at kung saan saan pa...at syempre pa, may photo op sa bawat stop. pero nyemas lang ang PC na gamit ko ngayon kaya punta na lang kayo sa multiply ko at doon tunghayaan ang aming misadventure..hehe..next time ko na lang ipopost ang galore shots namin kapag di na godfordaken ang gamit kong PC *wink*....

next saturday kaya sino kabonding ko?hmm....

EXPRESS KOMENTO vol.2

pahabol na komento ng isang obrerong busy busy-han.

i doubt the upheaval in burma will subside one of these days and i think it will take another 45 years or more to oust the military junta.as much as the world wants another peaceful people power in burma, the success of Edsa 1 is rather diffucult to achieve. for one, the military junta in burma is a real militar junta, their leader being a real general and still in command of their armed forces. the marcos' rule however is just a pseudo-military rule, wherein a civilian, and not a member of the military,holds the highest position in the land. and since it is merely a phony militar government, it was easy for the armed forces' highest officials then to withdraw there support to marcos when his government was already at the verge of collapse. as long as the armed forces is under the government's wing, it will be very difficult to overthrow it since it still holds the capacity to coerce those who they see as threats to its existence.

i admire the efforts of those who braved the streets of rangoon and staged a peaceful call for democratic government though. nonetheless my commentaries are merely a pragmatic look to the present scenario in burma. but as long as aung san suu kyi is within the territories of burma and still is very much adamant on there ideologies, her comrades and the people of burma will always be inspired to fight for the real democracy they deserve.

EXPRESS KOMENTO

busy busy-han ang lola nyo this week kaya mabilisang komento lang sa pang araw araw na buhay ang aking gagawin.after all, i still have opinions. but do they matter?*wink* you decide.

On Abalos' resignation
- let's not take it as a heroic act for heaven's sakes!to begin with, dapat naman talaga norm na yang pagreresign ng mga government people na tainted na ang name dahil sa mga kontrobersyang kababawan lang ang pinagmulan. case in point: japan. abalos is simply saving his neck from the chopping block, no more no less. whoever would want to be kicked out from his/her seat via an impeachment anyway? kulong ka na, mawawala pa dignidad mo. not to mention na mawawalan ka ng raket kapag nasa loob ka na ng selda. for me, it's merely a survival tactic. there is no need to put Abalos now on the pedestal. pero in fairness, maganda ang statehiya nya. at sa usapin ng survival, saludo ako sa kanya. one word: cunning.

On Sen. Miriam Defensor-Santiago's corruption remark on the Chinese
- hinay hinay lang madam.i know you are just overwhelmed and overly outspoken on this ZTE matter, pero no foul remarks naman. remember dati you wanted claire danes to be labelled persona non grata on her roaches remarks sa pilipinas? baka ganon din gawin sa inyo ng mga instik. pero madam, mahal pa rin kita at sasakalin ko lahat ng taong ginagago kayo.

On ridiculing Sen. Miriam Defensor-Santiago's peculiarities
- just do so is you're already half as erudite as her. yun lang.

On the NBN-program-is-just-an-overpriced-intercom-project remak of Sen. Mar Roxas'
- ditto

On the lousy racist remark from the Desperate Housewives
- @#$$%^$$^& nyo!!!!if you think medical schools here in the philippines are appaling and low grade, the entire population of the United States of America must be extinct by now.. you already have almost all of our doctors and other medical professionals, and you still have the decency to badmouth them!!!your wated lives are in their hands, how dare you!you Americans think you're good, even near to demigod-ness, well think again. in this entire world only AMERICANS doesn't know any other language aside from english. and you don't even speak decent english for crying out loud!!! filipinos and other nationalities are far more erudite in english than you do. in addition, if only you have any little ounce of common sense left in your freakin brains there will be no need for you to exploit our remaining precious manpower and make them
merely your tutors on mobile phone fundamentals like turning your stupid mobile phones on! three words: charge it first. stupid capitalist!!!! who's dumb now, huh?! nyemas kayo mapuputi lang kyo!insecure lang kayo kaya kayo ganyan!

"..we felt the imprisonment of being a girl, the way it made your mind active and dreamy and how you end up knowing what colors went together. We knew the girls were really women in disguise, that they understood love, and even death, and that our job was merely to create the noise that seemed to fascinate them."

-The Virgin Suicides(1999)
