The Past..

 10th grade

As I sat there in English class, I stared at the boy next to me. he was my so called "best friend". I stared at him short, silky hair, and wished he was mine. But he didn't notice me like that, and I knew it. After class, he walked up to me and asked me for the notes he had missed the day before and handed them to him. he said "thanks" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I wanted to tell him, I want him to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love him but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.

11th grade

The phone rang. On the other end, it was him. he was in tears, mumbling on and on about how his love had broke his heart. he asked me to come over because he didn't want to be alone, so I did. As I sat next to him on the sofa, I stared at his soft eyes, wishing he was mine. After 2 hours, one Drew Barrymore movie, and three bags of chips, he decided to go to sleep. he looked at me, said "thanks" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell him, I want him to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love him but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.

Senior year 

The day before prom he walked to my locker. My date is sick" he said; she's not going to go well, I didn't have a date, and in 7th grade, we made a promise that if neither of us had dates, we would go together just as "best friends". So we did. Prom night, after everything was over, I was standing at her front door step. I stared at him as he smiled at me and stared at me with his crystal eyes. I want him to be mine, but he isn't think of me like that, and I know it. Then he said "I had the best time, thanks!" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell him, I want him to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love him but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.

Graduation Day  

A day passed, then a week, then a month. Before I could blink, it was graduation day. I watched as him perfect body floated like an angel up on stage to get his diploma. I wanted him to be mine, but he didn't notice me like that, and I knew it. Before everyone went home, he came to me in her smock and hat, and cried as I hugged him. Then he lifted his head from my shoulder and said, "you're my best friend, thanks" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love him but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.

A Few Years Later  

Now I sit in the pews of the church. That boy is getting married now. I watched him say "I do" and drive off to his new life, married to another man. I wanted him to be mine, but he didn't see me like that, and I knew it. But before he drove away, he came to me and said "you came!". he said "thanks" and kissed me on the cheek. I want to tell him, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love him but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.

Funeral

Years passed, I looked down at the coffin of a boy who used to be my "best friend". At the service, they read a diary entry he had wrote in his high school years. This is what it read: I stare at him wishing he was mine, but he doesn't notice me like that, and I know it. I want to tell him, I want him to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love him but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why. I wish he would tell me he loved me! `I wish I did too...` I thought to my self, and I cried.

Me and You

When I first talked to you

I felt like I had known you forever,

telling you my problems

and what I didn't want ever.

You listened to me

I bet you thought I'd never end,

who would have thought

we would be the best of friends.

Over a period of time,

I got to know the real you.

A guy so charming and gentle,

with a heart so true.

You've survived your life

with me by your side.

I told you I'd never leave

because of the feelings I have inside.

There was a time

I wanted to explore,

what would have happened

if I would only open the door.

I know you

like no one I have ever known,

and sometimes I wonder

what do I do when we're alone?

So I have decided

time answers all.

If it is meant to be

time will remove the wall.

Standing between us,

holding us back,

allowing us to feel

It's the relationship that we lack.

I love the way we are together,

you can always make me smile.

Will it ever really be forever?

I guess I will have to wait awhile.

Time will reveal, what lies ahead

but always remember

what I have said.

Meeting you has changed my life

and I really love you so,

the feelings I feel for you

I am never letting go.

Remember me always

and I will too.

I will always think of

me and you.

THIS IS HOW WE MISS OUT SOMETHING CALLED 'LIFE'

A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage. They were a loving couple and the boy was the gem of their eyes. When the boy was around two years old, one morning the husband saw a medicine bottle open. He was late for office so he asked his wife to cap the bottle and keep it in the cupboard. His wife, preoccupied in the kitchen totally forgot the matter. The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to the bottle fascinated by its color and drank it all. It happened to be a poisonous medicine meant for adults in small dosages.

When the child collapsed the mother hurried him to the hospital, where he died. The mother was stunned. She was terrified how to face her husband. When the distraught father came to the hospital and saw the dead child, he looked at his wife and uttered just five words.

QUESTIONS :
1. What were the five words ?
2. What is the implication of this story?

ANSWER :
The husband just said ' I am with you Darling '

The husband's totally unexpected reaction is a proactive behavior. The child is dead. He can never be brought back to life. There is no point in finding fault with the mother. Besides, if only he had taken time to keep the bottle away, this would not have happened. No one is to be blamed. She had also lost her only child. What she needed at that moment was consolation and sympathy from the husband. That is what he gave her.

If everyone can look at life with this kind of perspective, there would be much fewer problems in the world. ' A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step ' . Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness, and fears. And you will find things are actually not as difficult as you think.

MORAL OF THE STORY:

This story is really worth reading. ..... Sometimes we spend time in asking who is responsible or whom to blame, whether in a relationship, in a job or with the people we know. By this way we miss out something called L.I.F.E .

Something for life

The other day, I was thinking that these social networking sites, internet, messengers has already trapped us in “The Matrix v 0.1 alpha”. Our half day is spent on these virtual sites which has nothing in real in them. Day by day, everyone is being so much involved in these sites that they are actually loosing the values of reality. Or in other words, the reality of real relations.

Everyone has their own reasons of using these sites and defending them and I have my own reasons of getting away from these sites. I have been maintaining my Facebook activities from last 3 months to see how much change I have gone through. To my astonish, there is remarkable change. Here is my activity graph. You can see, there is steady decline in it. A decline from 680 notifications to 454 a month.

Now the question is, why is it so? Why a geek like me, who is into computers, into almost every social site is being frustrated by all these things. Well, honestly speaking, I don’t even know. But what I feel is that the reality is way more important than these virtual things. Talking to someone in real is way more freshening rather reading someone’s status messages and commenting on them or having a conversation on MSN.

How To Move On After Break-up..

Break-ups can be difficult and painful, but the important thing to remember is that a break up is not the end of the world. Sometimes a break-up can even be a good thing because it will give you a chance to re-evaluate your life, and maybe even lead you to find someone more suitable. The truth is, that you can move on after a break-up no matter how bad it may have been.

 

 

 

Instructions:

• Give yourself plenty of time to heal and recuperate. Remember that time heals all wounds. Put away pictures, gifts or any mementos that remind you of your ex. It is natural to experience feelings of denial, but do your best to resist the urge to call your ex and ask to get back together. Immediately after a break-up, you are at your most vulnerable state, so be careful not to get into a rebound relationship that may prove to be a mistake. Avoid some of the pitfalls, such as drowning your sorrows in alcohol, and instead channel all of your energy into positive activities that make you feel good about yourself.

• Surround yourself with friends and loved ones. Talk about how you're feeling and allow them to comfort you and offer you advice. A break-up can be a very lonely experience, so surrounding yourself with others you love and trust will help to erase some of the loneliness. Don't try to deal with the experience all by yourself. Go out and meet new people, rebuild old relationships, network and immerse yourself into social situations. Keep yourself busy doing things you enjoy with the people you love, and don't dwell on the past.

• Go out and have fun. Don't stay home and sulk, as it will only make you feel more miserable. Round up a group of friends and hit the town. Do something fun and exciting, such as a night of dancing or bar hopping. Plan a weekend beach or camping trip or take a quick out-of-town getaway. Going out with friends will remind you that being single can be just as fun as being in a relationship. It will also help to keep your mind off your ex.

Poem for My Bestfriend..

I have a best friend..
And this poem is made specially for her..
She’s always there when i need her…
She’s with me always with open arms…

Someone whom i can always talk to..
Someone i can share secrets too..
Someone whom i can depend on..
Someone that i can always get along…

She cares for me and treats me as her little sister..
She protects me from those who are bitter…
She gives advise when i have problems..
She stays with me when i can’t take it any longer…

She’s with me thru the good times..
She’s with me thru the bad times…
She’s with me in happiness…
She’s with me in sadness…

We have a lot of things in common..
And that when we’re together nobody else can summon…
For we have this strong foundation at all cost…
And so proud to say that until now we’re here for each other..that’s what matters most…

There are days that are not ok with us..
Sometimes we quarrel for things that sometimes hurts us..
But still we find ways to solve and patch things up…
Problems are nothing and this will not cause our frriendhip to tear up…

I am thankful to God that i have met her..
I am grateful to God that i found her…
We’re already friends when we are teeners..
And for sure friendship will last until when we’re older…

Thank you sis for the friendship..
Trully this i will cherish..
No matter what happens i’ll always be right here…
Together hand in hand there’s nothing to fear

My Ideal Man :)

                                   

When I was a teenager, I had this stringent list of what my ideal man should be: handsome, well-off, caring, understanding, God-fearing, intelligent – ” I could have gone on and on then about what qualities my partner should have. However, as I grew older, I realized that I could never really find a real person who met all these sterling qualities.

Building a my-ideal-man-list is much like this e-mail that I received which made me laugh out loud, it’s entitled “My Ideal Man Checklist”. At age 20, the checklist goes much like the list that I had on my notes. Another revised list is made at ages 32, 42, 52, 62 and by the age of 72 there are only a couple of items on the list: that the man should be breathing and not miss the toilet. Well, that's the full version to enjoy:

all about personalities

We all come in different SHAPES and SIZES.

We all have STRENGTHS and weaknesses.

What's right for one person may not be right for another.

There are things that are important to me, that you don't care about at all!

And sometimes your behavior doesn't make any sense to me.

But I want for us to understand each other, and communicate well,            
because we live together in the same world.          

I know I can't expect you to want the same things that I want.

We are not the same person, so we will not always see things the same way.
I have my own Thoughts and my own Ideas,                                        

that may or may not fit into your vision of who I should be.

By learning more about my own Personality, and about other Personality Types,

I can come to a better understanding of my strengths and weaknesses.    

I can improve my interpersonal relationships, realign my expectations towards others,
and gain a better self-knowledge that will help me define and achieve goals.

t0gether Again..

"In life, as in art, some endings are bittersweet. Especially when it comes to love. Sometimes fate throws two lovers together only to rip them apart. Sometimes the hero finally makes the right choice but the timing is all wrong. And, as they say, timing is everything. Looks like this story might just have a second act. Let's hope it's not a tragedy."

"See, that's the thing about second chances. It's two people that are there for each other and support each other and care about each other no matter how much they want to deny it. It's about one person doing everything they can to make sure the other doesn't fall and vice-versa. Second chances are about holding on to that other persons hand no matter how hard they beg to let go."

Maybe I wasn't asking you to love me, maybe I was asking you to understand, because for so long I've been hurt and for so long you've ignored it, and maybe it is bad timing, but maybe, I don't care. I've been here all along just waiting, waiting for you to notice, waiting for you to care. Waiting for you to say that you've been waiting too, and you haven't and maybe you never will or maybe you're afraid to. But it all hurts the same, and in the end, I'm the one that's left broken and when I lay down to sleep, I'm still the one crying, so screw the bad timing. I've loved you then, like I love you now, like I probably always will."

Temptati0n Island Remake

Now it can be told, the comedy remake of Temptation Island is now in full swing. The main female cast is now complete and have been introduced already. After a lot of talks that Heart Evangelista has been chopped off the list, now she is officially back.

It can be recalled that Ruffa Gutierrez, the daughter of Heart’s soon to be ex-manager Anabelle Rama, sent out a tweet in her Twitter account saying that Heart is out of the project. Ruffa said that according to Mother Lily Monteverde, the Regal Films matriarch and producer of Temptation Island, Heart is out of the picture. When asked why, Mother Lily allegedly said that Heart had too many demands and too many limitations as well. Ruffa did say that she asked Mother Lily if she could tweet about it and Mother said yes.

Obviously, Mother Lily had a change of heart for, well, Heart and she remains in the cast. Temptation Island seems to be an all GMA 7 cast because together with Heart is one of GMA’s most prized actresses, Marian Rivera, Survivor Philippines Celebrity Edition finalist Solenn Heussaf and Lovi Poe.

For those of use who haven’t seen the original Temptation Island, this is supposed to be a comedy about a beauty pageant. For some reason they all got stuck in an island with nothing to live on. So they begin imagining delicious food and everything else. We will get to see how these beautiful ladies will live on the island soon.

be yOurself..

To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting. 

All my life I had been looking for something, and everywhere I turned someone tried to tell me what it was.  I accepted their answers too, though they were often in contradiction and even self-contradictory.  I was naive.  I was looking for myself and asking everyone except myself questions which I, and only I, could answer.  It took me a long time and much painful boomeranging of my expectations to achieve a realization everyone else appears to have been born with:  that I am nobody but myself. There is just one life for each of us:  our own. I think of life itself now as a wonderful play that I've written for myself, and so my purpose is to have the utmost fun playing my part. "Be yourself" is about the worst advice you can give some people.

Loving me

This is a short story of my life and i wanted to share it with you..

hmm.. what do you think is LOVE??
they say love is blind, while some other say love conquers all.
but for me? love for me is unlimited.
the feelings that you cannot explain..
it makes you feel happy and inspired but can also cause you so much pain.

i do have a lot of experience having a boyfriend
or being committed to someone.

it so really nice to have it but so really hard to lose it. :-(

last few days there is something that boggles my mind.

this is for someone who loves me despite all impossible things to happened.

i just wanted to say thank you for all the things you've done good to me

for the love and care even though you know that i already have a special someone

and i am sorry for that. i know you understand.

but i am trying naman to do all the best that i can just to treat you fair.

one time you said "manhid" ako. but its not. siguro magaling lang talaga ako when it comes to pretending.

but im not denying the fact that you are also important to me.

i cannot promise anything but one thing for sure,

i can treat you in a special way but no commitments are involve.

i do believe naman kasi that having a mutual feelings for each other does not necessarily need

to have a formal relationship as a boyfriend and girlfriend because while you are both busy

with your personal life it is possible naman to make each other as an inspiration.

"no commitments" just a romantic bond. diba?

sabi mo nga you can wait naman e. so lets make things happen nalang in a right time, in a right place.

di naman kailangan magmadali. but so far, lets just enjoy nalang each others company while we can.

now, im happy for having you and so much thankful for having my boyfriend.

i hope someday walang may ma hurt in the end. everything's going to be fine. :-)

Sweet Surprise!

Surprise!

Hey… Why not suggesting this to you..That you surprise yourself.

I must admit that I love surprises, and they can be really happy-shaking sometimes. It doesn’t actually matter if it is small surprises or big surprises, as long as there is one of them, right? Big gifts, small gifts, we love them all:)

But you don’t necessary have to wait for someone else to get their fingers out of their pockets to go and buy you something nice, or hug you when you least expect it. You can also surprise yourself, by looking forward to something exciting, fun, beautiful, new.. Order something online..

A book, a sweet dress, new shoes, a computer, a magazine, tickets, free perfume samples or candy. whatever you can think of. The truth is, you do surprise yourself and you feel as a child looking forward to that thing showing up in the mail, or coming to that store, or that trip being planned to a foreign country.

If you do decide to order something online, please choose as long delivery time as possible.

Sometimes, if you order from another country, you can choose if you want your product sent to you within short time, or maybe within four weeks.

Choose four weeks if you can;) In the meantime, while waiting, have fun doing other cool stuff, and maybe order something else. By the time those four weeks has pass, you might have forgotten that one thing you ordered, and then. It’s suddenly in your mailbox. How great isn’t that?

And that reminds me Letters are also great happiness-shots. Be a bit ‘old-fashion’ if that’s what you call it, send one or several letters to old friends you never see, friends you often see, get a letter pal, send to others you know, send letters with compliments to different services, send even one to yourself, reminding yourself of how amazing you are.

Ok? This is BIG. And it’s small..

You get to choose – but these things, can really boost your mood and creativity if you let’m!

At the end her.. Surprise someone else!

You deserve to get a warm smile and a hug from someone you like as well;)

new beginning

"LIFE"

Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.

The secret to a rich life is to have more beginnings than endings.

All glory comes from daring to begin.

What appears to be the end may really be a new beginning.

Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.

Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.

Every day is a new beginning. Treat it that way.

Stay away from what might have been and look at what can be.

Though no one can go back and make a brand new start 
anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.

All great deeds and all great thoughts have a ridiculous beginning

Making the beginning is one third of the work. 

Every end is a new beginning

The world is round and the place which may seem like the end may also be the beginning.

Were Still lovers right?

"LOVE"

Why do i always cry for something? i know i cant no longer hold on to.

this is the questions that  boggles my mind.

i always feel like crying whenever i get the chance to remember the things that we use to spend together. i know i should just accept the sad truth that things will never go back to normal between the two of us. but it hurts me, its just so hard to let go of something that was such a big part of my life. some people say, i should simply value the time i am spending a part from you so that i can discover my self. but this is just too painful for me to do. now, i ask myself.. what went wrong? i was back to our past when we first met. we bonded and it eventually lead to a sense belonging i treasure those moments i fell in love with you. we grew closer but despite all my expectations that we'd be better be as lovers though you are no longer interested to be part of my life. but i'm glad our path's once cross that day. i know i cant no longer look for another person exactly like you and i know its unlikely for you to return to me, but i'm still hoping even if it takes forever.. :(

My thoughts

hello to each and everyone..

i would like to share my thoughts and observation about virginity issue.

Virginity signifies cleanliness and purity of a woman

it also said that it is the only gift that a woman could give to her husband.

maturity and Stability assures future than virginity.

marrying a virgin is not assurance of happy and perfect marriage.

premarital sex is the act of making love before marriage.

i simply want you to realize that

staying pure before wedding helps earn respects from others

and it reflects a woman's moral.. :]

Were Still lovers right?

Why do i always cry for something? i know i can no longer hold on to.
this is the questions that boggles my mind.
i always feel like crying whenever i get the chance to remember the moments that we use to spend together
i know, i should just accept the sad truth that things will never go back to normal between the two of us
but it hurts me.. its just too hard to let go of something that was such a big part of your life.
some people say
