Pagpupugay sa mga Tsismosa

Kahahanga-hanga ang mga Tsismosa Umaga pa lang nagsisimula na. Mga Bibig nilang walang kapaguran Hatid ay balitang kakaiba. Daig pa ang radyo, sila ay pinakikinggan. Pinaniniwalaan, Pinagkakatiwalaan pa. Di na kailangan maging Journalist Di na kailangan maging Newscaster. Hindi man sila guro Marami sa kanila ay natututo. Hindi man sila politiko Marami sa kanila ay nahihikayat. Mabuti rin silang kaibigan. Talagang pasisikatin ka. Pagkat mga balita nila Ikaw din ang laman. Kaya kung sa lugar mo Maraming tulad nila Magalak at magdiwang Pag-asa ng bayan ay nasa iyo!

One Sided Love

I've got to call you twice for you to notice me. I've got to speak loud for you to hear me. I'm not important, You care not to me. But this just one time, Please Listen to me, when I tell you that I Love You. (Nothing's changed, I know...)

HOT CHOCOLATE

I am in the cafeteria, drinking a cup of still hot chocolate. My elbows are resting on the table, both hands holding my head to prevent it from falling straight on the table because of sleepiness. I am waiting for my best friend. She’s taking her last exam for this day, I finished mine earlier. I’m really bored and tired. We are supposed to go home together, that’s why I’m waiting for her, here in the cafeteria. It’s already 3 in the afternoon. The cafeteria is less busy than it used to be every morning until after lunch. There are few students occupying other tables but they also seem tired and just wanted to take some rest and eat before going home. Even the canteen sellers and personnel seem exhausted and just waiting for this day to end. Strong winds made my long black hair sway. I can smell the food, the fruit shake, and even the scent of the girl’s strong perfume sitting in the nearest table. But it’s the smell of the hot chocolate that filled my senses… My eyes capture

Pangarap

May mga pangarap talagang ang sarap isipin. kahit paulit-ulit pa. ang masakit lang, alam mong hindi matutupad. sa kabila ng lahat, 'wag mawalan ng pag-asa hintay hintay lang kapatid, baka may mangyaring himala.

The Day I'll Never Forget

Last August 4, 2012, I celebrated my 18 th Birthday, 2 days advance to its actual date. It was really special. It’s not that much because every preparation for that special day was all by our own efforts and just the help of all the very special people in my life. We never paid for services from other people like catering, event organizer, sounds and lights etc. In fact, I really felt that the efforts from these closest people to me are the very same reason why my birthday is extra more special. We started preparing for these a month before the date. Actually I myself, never really exerted so much effort for the preparations, aside from of course, what color would I like to use, what will I wear and who are the friends I’m going to include to the 18’s. I want to express so much of my gratitude to my ever supportive mother and sister and of course my father, who gave all their efforts in the preparations and helped me decide on things I’ve had a hard time deciding. All their

CHANGE OR MORALITY?

Reproductive Health Bill No. 5043 has been taking our leaders quite some time already and yet decisions can’t still be made. Why does this issue of family planning and population growth taking us too long? Is this bill really a work of evil trying to lure us into doing something that looks good yet will destroy our stand and morality later on? RH bill if passed will be a national policy on reproductive health, responsible parenthood and population development. For pro-RH Bill people, this bill is a very good way of promoting responsible parenthood. The Reproductive Health bill will be helping the Filipino parents, especially the poor to plan their family so that they can have children that will suit their financial capabilities. Thus, it will help solve their problem about food and education for their children. It will also be the way to control our population which is growing so fast, leaving us high rate of lives to be sustained with limited resources. But the Anti’s will

Reproductive Health Bill's Positive Mission

Reproductive Health Bill is an act providing for a national policy on reproductive health, responsible parenthood and population development, and for other purposes. It aims to provide responsible parenthood and population growth and I as I see it is not contradicting any Church Law and/or Morality etc. Church Leaders, Pro-Life and other religious sectors strongly disagree to the proposed bill. They believe that the bill is promoting sexual immorality. They see that the use of condoms and contraceptives endorses irresponsible sexual life which is sacred and is only for married couples. I, personally believe that the mission of the RH bill is positive. There is nothing wrong with family planning for population control which the bill is primarily promoting. The proposed bill simply aims to teach every parent to be responsible so that they can provide what their children need including healthy lifestyle and proper education. RH bill isn’t legalizing abortion. It does not a

PNOY's Speech Reaction (TV Patrol 25th Anniversary)

Like President Noynoy Aquino, I want to congratulate TV Patrol for their 25 years of serving the people of the Philippines. PNOY’s speech was very honest yet he never forgot being polite. I believe that the message he wanted to tell especially the news commentators was clearly delivered although people may have different feedback about it. Although, some may think that the President ruined the celebration by pointing out the news anchor of TV Patrol who gave his comment/opinion that made a bad image for the government about news they were reporting. According to the president’s speech, the comment of the news anchor makes the good news appear to be a not-so-good one and is obviously against the government. Because of this, the people who hear may also be influenced about his opinion and eventually believe that the government is really doing nothing good and the country has no progress at all. The comment of the president sounds right to me but it may also change if I

What is Love?

Genuine Love “Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. Love does not demand its own way. Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged. It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstances” 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 When you ask different people from different walks of life with different beliefs if they know what love is and how to love, almost a hundred percent would probably say yes. But do we really know what love is? There have been a lot of definitions depending on a person’s perspective of love. But one thing is common to almost every person here on Earth; they choose who to love and what to love in a person. In order for us to learn how to love our neighbors, we must first know what love really is. And the best way to understand it is to seek for the one who started the love here on Earth, t

Tired Already?

“Tired for Doing Good” “Don’t get tired of doing what is good. Don’t get discouraged and give up, for we will reap a harvest of blessing at the appropriate time.” -Galatians 6:9 Sometimes, doing what is good and pleasing to God may seem tiring, even boring and less adventurous. Or maybe you are doing it for so long that it seems so ordinary. No matter what kind of person you are, there will come a time that temptations will come. You will experience great curiosity on things you weren’t doing before. May it be for better or for worse. Sometimes, we feel that we are doing everything good yet no one even bother to thank and appreciate us. Discouraging isn’t it? During these times, let us go back to the beginning of everything, the cross. On that Cross, where so much love was given just for us. For us, sinners, wrong doers, impure, hard headed, boastful. Jesus never got tired on carrying that cross, because it’s the will of the Father for His people, because it was neede

Feeling Envious?

ENVY “Then I observed that most people are motivated to success by their envy of their neighbors. But this, too, is meaningless, like chasing the wind.” Ecclesiastes 4:4 It is a fact that we don’t always get what we want. Sometimes even when we already have almost all the good things there will always be something you do not have that unfortunately, you will see in other people. The initial reaction to this is envy. We became envious because we think that life is unfair. Others may think that it isn’t envy, its motivation. Because we see what our neighbors have over us, we tend to do everything just to acquire what others have or what others had become that we envied. And then, we call it “AMBITIONS.” Isn't it wrong? That we replace envy, by the word Ambition? Ambitions are   strong desires to do or to achieve something  while envy is a painful desire on what others have. When you want something and you do everything to reach it because others have it and it is pa

FAMILY

The best family that God gave me. Not perfect but by the Power of the Holy Spirit that unites us all, we are all serving Him together in all circumstances of Life. To God be all theGlory!

Are you Beautiful?

“Eternal Beauty” “Don’t be concerned about the outward beauty that depends on fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes. You should be known for the beauty that comes from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God.” -1Peter 3: 3-4             Being in the middle of my youthful days, I always experience the pressure in making myself beautiful and fashionable just to follow the trend set by famous and beautiful models and actresses. Clothes and hairstyles are being copied from anywhere just because it is the trend today. The next few months or weeks, the trend today will no longer be new and there comes another set you will have to follow if you want to be up to date in what’s happening in the present. This is the cycle of being fashionable nowadays. The mindset of every girl is like, if you are beautiful, you have to draw the attention of the crowd. In order to get their attention, you have to be fashionable like hair

Wishes of Mine

Books, Movies, Fairytales, Fantasy, Fiction: Wishes of mine I like fantasy, fiction, and fairy tales. I know I’m not a child anymore but there is something inside me, something that touches my heart when I read or watch things I cannot see in the reality of the world. I want books and movies not to end. I want to believe that they actually exist. I want to go inside the movie or a book but when the reality struck me that they are like what they call them, fantasy, fiction, made-up stories. Stories! Merely stories, I nearly cry. T.T Why can’t they be true? Why can’t I be a character in a book? It doesn’t matter if I have two cruel step sisters and a stepmother, as long as pumpkins can be carriages, as long as fairy god mother exist too. It doesn’t matter if I kiss a frog, as long as He will be a prince after I do so. It doesn’t matter if I have tail, gills and fins as long as I can breathe underwater and live as a princess. It doesn’t matter if I sleep hundreds of years a

For Broken Hearts

This is for those people who knew how to love and how to be in pain. This is for those people who were left hanging and those who learned to spread their wings to fly. This is for those people who experienced the birth of love deep within themselves and eventually experienced its death. Yes, no matter how crazy or weird I am, I know exactly how it felt to be left alone in love. Just so you know, this experience had taken a lot of strength and courage from me that I had to ask for donations from my friends.  If you had experienced it already, congratulations because I know you passed the test with high scores (I just know).  I felt it and I understand that it is not easy. No matter what type of situation you were in, it’s just the same, you’ve been hurt because of the greatest feeling of the world, LOVE. While everyone is so happy about loving someone, while everyone is patiently waiting for their true love with high hopes, there you are, despairing, regretting that you actually

"Emptiness"

March 23, 2011 My lips are smiling But my head is aching. My face looks happy But my heart is empty. Yes my heart is not broken anymore, But it is EMPTY. And emptiness is killing my heart.

Boredom

It's something you do when you're bored. Plus I believe, a girl can never be completely beautiful when she doesn't know how to be ugly. Hurray!

You think you're better than others?

Why do people always think that they are better than others? January 2012 Honestly, I don’t know. (Sometimes I do it.) But maybe I can guess? Maybe, because they are pessimists. Negative thinkers. They think of everything about everything negative (Not at least for themselves). It’s just that there are people who can’t see the beauty of life (or they don’t wanna see it), all they see are the faults of other people. Be careful to this people, one mistake and all the good in your life will be gone in an instant…. In their eyes. How sure I am? I’ve met some. Or maybe… because they are sooooo in love!!!! With themselves. You know those kind of people who like it so much to sit in front of a mirror and admire themselves while looking on their reflection checking if there’s anything wrong about themselves but actually thinking that there’s nothing bad about them as if they are the only perfect person in the world (exaggerating, I am.) But yes there are. Whether you believe it

Meowie Dear

Cats can serve a great company when you don't have one. That's why I love this cat. I use to call her "Meowie." 

“Maybe I’ll forget, even my love for you”

I forgave you not because the pain is gone. I forgave not because I don’t care anymore. I forgave you because… I still love you and I still care for you. Maybe I’ll just love you this way now. And then maybe as days go by, I’ll forget that you hurt me. And hopefully forget that I love you too. It is because I know you cannot love me anymore the way that I love you now. And so I’ll just pray and wait for that day That I forget everything even my love for you.   February 2011
