COHEED AND CAMBRIA LYRICS
"A Favor House Atlantic" Your eyes tell the stories of a day you wish you could Recall the moments that once have Retrack the footsteps that brought us to this favor I wouldn't ask this of you Good eye, sniper I shoot, you run The words you scribbled on the walls With the loss of friends you didn't have I called you and the time is right Are you in or are you out? For them all to know the end of us all Run quick, they're behind us Didn't think we'd ever make it This close to safety in one piece Now you wanna kill me in the act of what could maybe Save us from sleep and what we are Good eye, sniper Now I shoot, you run The words you scribbled on the walls With the loss of friends you didn't have I called you and the time is right Are you in or are you out? For them all to know the end of us all Bye bye beautiful Don't bother to write Disturbed by your words and they're calling all cars Face step, let down. Face step, step down. The words you scribbled on the walls With the loss of friends you didn't have I called you and the time is right Are you in or are you out? For them all to know Bye bye beautiful Don't bother to write Disturbed by your words and they're calling all cars Face step, let down. Face step, step down. Bye bye beautiful Don't bother to write Disturbed by your words and they're calling all cars Face step, let down. Face step, step down. Bye bye beautiful Don't bother to write Disturbed by your words and they're calling all cars Face step, let down. Face step, step down.

THOUSAND FOOT KRUTCH LYRICS
"This Is A Call" She fooled all of her friends into thinking she's so strong, but she still sleeps with herlight on, and she acts like It's all right on, as she smiles again her mother lies there sickwith cancer, and her friends don't understand her, she's a question without answers, who feelslike falling apart. She knows, she's so much more than worthless, but she needs to find herpurpose, she wonders what she did to deserve this and..She's calling out to you, this is a call; this is a call out, ' Cause everytime I fall down, Ireach out to you, and I'm losing all control now, and my hazard signs are all out, I'm askingyou, to show me what this life is all about.He tells everyone a story, because he feels his life is boring, and he fights so you won'tignore him, because that's his biggest fear, and he cries, but you'll rarely see him do it. Heloves, but he's scared to use it. So he hides behind the music, cause he likes it that way. Heknows, He's so much more than worthless, he needs to find the surface, because he's starting toget nervous. He's calling out to you, this is a call; this is a call out, ' Cause everytime I fall down, Ireach out to you, and I'm losing all control now, and my hazard signs are all out, I'm askingyou, to show me what this life is all about.Have you ever felt this way before? 'cause I don't wanna hide here anymore. Take me to placewhere nothing's wrong and thanks for coming, shut the door. They say someone out there sees us,Well if you're real then save me Jesus, cause I've been here for far too long. I wasn't meantto feel alone.And now I'm calling out to you, this is a call; this is a call out, 'Cause everytime I falldown, I reach out to you, and I'm losing all control now, and my hazard signs are all out, I'masking you, to show me what this life is all about.Show me what this life is all aboutShow me what this life is all about

Keane - Somewhere Only We Know

I walked across an empty landI knew the pathway like the back of my handI felt the earth beneath my feet Sat by the river and it made me complete
Oh simple thing where have you gone I'm getting old and I need something to rely on So tell me when you're gonna let me inI'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
I came across a fallen treeI felt the branches of it looking at me Is this the place we used to love?Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?
Oh simple thing where have you gone I'm getting old and I need something to rely on So tell me when you're gonna let me in I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute why don't we go Talk about it somewhere only we know? This could be the end of everything So why don't we go Somewhere only we know?
Oh simple thing where have you gone I'm getting old and I need something to rely on So tell me when you're gonna let me in I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
So if you have a minute why don't we go Talk about it somewhere only we know? This could be the end of everything So why don't we go So why don't we go
This could be the end of everything So why don't we go Somewhere only we know?

THESE DAYS

by Bamboo

these days

i seem to find

a million reasons to sit around and waste my mind

know what's being said and that's all fine

you tell me to get a life

do you understand the weight of that line?

take me for all I am

chorus:

coz I can find

my own way

big date tonight

there's no tomorrow

so let's leave it on the line

coz there's time

it's not too late

to change direction

turn your head son

so let's leave it on the line

there's something within

that's telling me that I'm just playing it too cool

i could pretty much lose everything

i never had an apple that tasted so... so sweet

given the chance, the choice

take me for all I am

(repeat chorus)

today...

i am free

free to fly

free to be what they tell me I cannot be

happy birthday to me

(repeat chorus)

is this the light at the end?

where the picture is clearer, the reception is warmer

is this the light at the end?

you're looking lot better we're happy to see ya

is this the light at the end?

you got what you came for you know where to find the door

is this the light at the end?

where the woman are hot but the beer's a lot colder

is this the light at the end?

yo momma's looking good what she doing for dinner?

is this the light at the end?

if yo momma's busy does she have a younger sister?

is this the light at the end?

you got what you came for you know where to find the door

is this the light at the end?

you know I woke up to a beautiful morning till you showed up

nauseous I was to see you standing there in my presence

but it was alright coz I'm not about to fight

when this bird wants to sing

i'll sing
gunpoint that suppose to scare me into submissiona slave to your will, fear, greed and ambition

but I'm not game...i'm not game to your flame

there's no discussion

i will fight to the end... fighter...

Anthem Of Our Dying Day

by Story Of The Year

The stars will cry
The blackest tears tonight
And this is the moment that I live for
I can smell the ocean air
And here I am
Pouring my heart onto these rooftops
Just a ghost to the world
That's exactly
Exactly what I need
From up here the city lights burn
Like a thousand miles of fire
And I'm here to sing this anthem
Of our dying day
For a second I wish the tide
Would swallow every inch of this city
As you gasp for air tonight
I'd scream this song right in your face
If you were hear
I swear I wont miss a beat
Cause I never
Never have before
From up here the city lights burn
Like a thousand miles of fire
And I'm here to sing this anthem
Of our dying day
Of our dying day
Of our dying day
Of our dying!!!
For a second I wish the tide
Would swallow every inch of this city
And you gasp for air tonight!!
From up here the city lights burn
Like a thousand miles of fire
And I'm here to sing this anthem
Of our dying day
From up here the city lights burn
Like a thousand miles of fire
And I'm here to sing this anthem
Of our dying day
From up here the city lights burn
Like a thousand miles of fire
And I'm here to sing this anthem
Of our dying day
Our dying day
Of our dying!!!

Dare You To Move :: Switchfoot

Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone's here, everyone's here
Everybody's watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next? What happens next?
I dare you to move,
I dare you to move,
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor,
I dare you to move,
I dare you to move
Like today never happened,
today never happened before...

Welcome to the fall out,
Welcome to existence,
Redemption is here, redemption is here,
Between who you are and who you could be,
Between how it is and how it should be
I dare you to move,
I dare you to move,
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor,
I dare you to move,
I dare you to move
Like today never happened,
today never happened...

Maybe redemption has stories to tell,
Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell,
Where can you run to escape from yourself
Where are you gonna go?
Where are you gonna go?
Salvation is here...

I dare you to move,
I dare you to move,
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor,
I dare you to move,
I dare you to move
Like today never happened,
today never happened,
today never happened,
today never happened before...

i just need something to uplift my spirit back to normal..when life was just fine, smooth flowing and relaxing, inspite of the pressures that surround me before...
...now i know how it feels like to be in the "real" sense of the world..and it so damn, difficult...i think this is what you call "burnout"?! fuck!...zzzzzzzzz...

so here's something to, in a way, booze my morale...i hope yours too :) (specially w/the ladies out there..go gurl!:p)

1. Never apologize for pursuing what makes you happy. Even if you need to quit your job, transfer schools, or move across country, always do what you really want.
2. Never apologize for using proper English. Keeping it real doesn't mean speaking Ebonics.
3. Never apologize for giving your best in a relationship that just didn't work out.
4. Never apologize for being successful. Only haters want to keep you at their level.
5. Never apologize for crying. Wear waterproof mascara and express yourself.
6. Never apologize for ten pounds you need to lose. People who truly care about you will accept you as you are.
7. Never apologize for being frugal. Just because you save your money instead of blowing it on the latest fashion emergency doesn't mean you're cheap.
8. Don't apologize for being a single mom. Babies are a blessing.
9. Never apologize for treating yourself to something special.Sometimes you have to show yourself some appreciation.
10. Never apologize for leaving an abusive relationship. Your safety should always be a priority.
11. Never apologize for keeping the ring even if wedding bells won't chime.
12. Never apologize for setting high standards in a relationship. You know what you can tolerate and what simply gets on your nerves.
13. Never apologize for saying NO.
14. Never apologize for asking for what you want in bed. If you don't, then who will?
15. Never apologize for wearing a weave. You bought it so it's yours.
16. Never apologize to your new friends about old friends. There's a reason she's been your girl from day one.
17. Never apologize for ordering dessert. Or more than one dessert.
18. Never apologize for dating outside your race. Just because you found Mr. Right across the color line doesn't mean you don't love your brothas.
19 . Never apologize for not knowing how to cook. Even if you can't burn like Grandma you know how to order good take out.
20 . Never apologize for your taste in clothes. It's your style.
2 1 . Never apologize for changing your mind
22 . Never apologize for exercising your right to choose. It's your body and your right.
23. Never apologize for making more money than your man, you work hard and you deserve to get paid.
24. Never apologize for being you!

Every Little Thing :: DISHWALLA

Let me in

to see you in the morning light

to get me on and all along the tears they come

see all come

I want you to believe in life

but I get the strangest feeling that you've gone away

will you find out who you are too late to change?

I wish I could be

every little thing you wanted

all the time

I wish I could be

every little thing you wanted

all the time

some times

lift me up just lift me up don't make a sound

and let me hold you up before you hit the Ground

see all come

you say your all right

but I get the strangest feeling

that you've gone away- you've gone away

and will you find out who you are too late to change?

I wish I could be every little thing you wanted

all the time

I wish I could be

every little thing you wanted

all the time

some times

Don't give me up

don't give me up tonight

or soon nothing will be right at all

salvation

will you find out who you are too late to change?

I wish I could be every little thing you wanted

Angels Or Devils :: DISHWALLA

this is the last time
that I'm ever gonna come here tonight
this is the last time - I will fall
into a place that fails us all - inside

I can see the pain in you
I can see the love in you
but fighting all the demons will take time
it will take time

the angels they burn inside for us
are we ever
are we ever gonna learn to fly
the devils they burn inside of us
are we ever gonna come back down
come around
I'm always gonna worry about the things that could make us cold

this is the last time
that I'm ever gonna give in tonight
are there angels or devils crawling here?
I just want to know what blurs and what is clear - to see

still I can see the pain in you
and I can see the love in you
and fighting all the demons will take time
it will take time

the angels they burn inside for us
are we ever
are we ever gonna learn to fly
the devils they burn inside of us
are we ever gonna come back down - come around
I'm always gonna worry about the things that could break us

if I was to give in - give it up
- and then take a breath - make it deep
cause it might be the last one you get
be the last one
that could make us cold
you know that they could make us cold
I'm always gonna worry about the things that could make us cold

Charlie Brown's Parents :: Dishwalla

I can't hear
What you're saying
What you're doing to me
Can't you see
It would take the jaws of
Life to pry open your words...
So pry open your words

I don't want to talk about Elvis
No I don't want
To go on pretending
Because it feels like I'm talking to
Talking to Charlie Brown's Parents
It feels like I'm talking to
A lonely man without a vision
Stuffed his mouth with indecision
Why he's a lonely man without a vision
Stuffed his mouth with indecision
Ooh

Cause I can't hear
What you're saying
What you're doing to me
Can't you see
It would take the jaws of
Life to pry open your words

I don't want to talk about Jesus
And I don't want to go on converting, no
Because it feels like I'm talking to
Talking to Charlie Brown's Parents
It feels like I'm talking to
A lonely man without a vision
Stuffed his mouth with indecision
Why he's a lonely man without a vision
Stuffed his mouth with indecision
Ooh

Why he's a lonely man without a vision
Stuffed his mouth with indecision (2x)

Cause I can't hear
What you're saying
What you're doing to me
Can't you see
It would take the jaws of
Life to pry open your words (repeat)

Counting Blue Cars :: Dishwalla

Must of been mid afternoon
I could tell by how far the child's shadow stretched out and
He walked with a purpose
In his sneakers, down the street
He had, many questions
Like children often do
He said,
Tell me all your thoughts on God
Tell me am I very far?

Must of been late afternoon
On our way the sun broke free of the clouds
We count only blue cars
Skip the cracks, in the street
And ask many questions
Like children often do
We said,
Tell me all your thoughts on God
'Cause I would really like to meet her.
And ask her why we're who we are.
Tell me all your thoughts on God,
Cause I am on my way to see her.
So tell me am I very far -
Am I very far now?

Its getting cold picked up the pace
How our shoes make hard noises in this place
Our clothes are stained
We pass many, cross eyed people
And ask many questions
Like children often do

Tell me all your thoughts on God
'Cause I would really like to meet her.
And ask her why we're who we are.
Tell me all your thoughts on God?
'Cause I am on my way to see her.
So tell me am I very far?
Am I very far now
Am I very far now
Am I very far now

Somewhere in the middle : Dishwalla

I was out the other day
and I saw you in your big black car
and I was waving as you were passing
cause I know who you are
you had this look that of an angel
it was such a bad disguise
did you think for second I would not realize

tripping hard falling down onto the ground
cause I can't stand up
and I can't fall down
cause I'm somewhere in the middle of this

I was out the other night
and I saw you so we had a fight
it was late and I was lonely
and its such a long way home
so I asked you if you'd join me
for a single last call drink
so you turned and bought us 2
and you didn't even blink
you had this look that of an angel
it was such a bad disguise
when you drink it makes you angry
when I drink I want you more and more and more

tripping hard falling down onto the ground
cause I can't stand up
and I can't fall down
and I'm somewhere in the middle of this

well I find it hard
I always tried to find the sane life
but I don't like the way things are
and I keep falling to my knees
somewhere in the middle of this

Why Women Cry

Why are you crying, a young boy asked his Mom?

"Because I'm a woman," she told him.

"I don't understand," he said.

His Mom just hugged him and said,
"And you never will, but that's O.K.".......

Later the little boy asked his father,
"Why does Mom seem to cry for no reason?".
"All women cry for no reason," was all his Dad could say......

The little boy grew up and became a man,
still wondering why women cry.

Finally he put in a call to God and when God got back to him, he asked "God, why do women cry so easily?"

GOD answered......

"When I made woman,
I decided she had to be special.
I made her shoulders
strong enough to carry
the weight of the world, yet,
made her arms gentle enough to give comfort...

I gave her the inner strength
to endure childbirth
and the rejection
that many times will come
even from her own children.

I gave her a hardness
that allows her
to keep going and take care
of her family and friends,
even when everyone else gives up, through sickness and fatigue without
complaining....

I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and all
circumstances. Even when her child has hurt her badly....

She has the very special power to make a child's boo-boo feel better and
to quell a teenager's anxieties and fears....

I gave her strength to care for her husband, despite faults
and I fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart....

I gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his wife, but
sometimes tests her strengths and her resolve to stand beside him
unfalteringly....

For all of this hard work,
I also gave her a tear to shed.
It is hers to use
whenever needed and !
it is her only weakness....
When you see her cry,
tell her how much you love her, and all she does for everyone, and even though
she may still cry, you will have made her heart feel good.

She is special!
Please send this to women you know, and those with mothers,
sisters, and special women in their lives.

But, also send this to men so they will understand about what a
wonderful thing a woman is.

Each day is a mountain that must be climbed; with courage each step
gets easier.Ü

Hello!

"...busy ka? naku mukha nga... tagal na natin di
nagkikita... tagal mo na ako di dinadalaw... alam mo
miss na kita...


o sino yang nagtext sa iyo?... buti pa sa kanya
nakapagreply ka agad... napansin ko ang dami mong
ginagawa talaga... ang dami mo ring things to do
diyan sa planner mo ah!


mapangarap ka talaga noh?... ang dami mong plano.
nakakatuwa naman na malaman yan. kasama ba ako sa
plano mo? ano? naku di ka agad makasagot...
sige okay lang alam ko naman kung ano talaga sagot
mo...


nakita kita nung Friday, aga mo umalis sa office.
alam mo ba, ang akala ko pupuntahan mo ako.
ooppss! hindi pala! TGIF (THANK God its Friday) pala
kayo ng mga friends mo.


umaga ka na nakauwi ah? naghintay ako sa'yo.
pagpasok mo sa kuwarto mo, di mo ako napansin...
haaay! kawawa ka naman siguradong kinabukasan
masakit ang ulo mo, tanghali ka na gigising...


Ang dami mong lakad, naghihintay ako na tayo naman
ang maging magkasama kaya lang sa dami ng schedules
mo sa trabaho at sa labas ng office parang malabo
talaga...


O sige na, balik ka na sa work mo. i might be eating
too much of your time maging dahilan pa ako para
masira ang plano mo sa araw na ito...


gusto ko lang sabihin sa'yo na nandito lang ako
kapag kailangan mo ako...pag hindi ka na busy.
totoo yon! walang biro! ayaw mong maniwala?
Ganon kita kamahal kasi! ayaw mo pa ring maniwala?


Haaay! remember this, kahit singit lang ako lagi sa
buhay mo, kahit biglaan mo lang na natatawag ako
dahil nagulat ka, nasaktan ka, nauntog ka o dahil
part ang pangalan ko nung binabasa mo sa text, you
will be in my heart always...


trial after trial isipin mo kasama mo ako na
lumalakad, hindi man sa buhangin, kasama mo pa rin
ako... sa lahat plano mo , kahit hindi mo ako kasama
i would like you to know that i am the one
perfecting it... para mas maging masaya ka...


minsan tayo naman ang mag-usap ha? minsan ako naman
ang dalawin mo... miss na talaga kita eh... sa akin
hindi ka singit lang..."


JESUS

Paki forward ha para naman malaman ng iba kung gaano
ako kapanabik sa kanila... pero paki tanggal yung
name ng nag-forward sayo...


I KNOW YOU WILL RESPOND!

What if God couldn't take the time to bless us
today because we couldn't take the time to
thank Him yesterday?

What if God decided to stop leading us tomorrow
because we didn't follow Him today?

What if we never saw another flower bloom
because we grumbled when God sent the Rain?

What if God didn't walk with us today because
we failed to recognize it as His day?

What if, God took away the Bible tomorrow
because we would not read it today?

What if, God took away His message because
we failed to listen to the messenger?

THINK ABOUT THIS ONE........

What if, God didn't send His only begotten Son
because He wanted us to be prepared to pay the
price for sin.

What if, the door of the church was closed
because we did not open the door of our heart?

What if, God stopped loving and caring for us
because we failed to love and care for others?

What if, God would not hear us today because
we would not listen to Him?

What if, God answered our prayers the way we
answer His call to service?

What if, God met our needs the way we give Him
our lives???

What if, We failed to send this message on??

THIS IS A SIMPLE TEST....... If you love Jesus,
send this to people you know .....

Egyptian birth signs

God of Prophets
(January 1 to February 2)

Those born under this sign have a sure talent for recognising Mr./Ms. Right the first time they see him/her - for them it's often a matter of love at first sight. When this happens, usually at a chance meeting in public places like shopping malls or restaurants, you can attract him/her by radiating happiness. You'll find it will captivate him/her

- God of the Sacred Nile
(February 3 to March 4)

Better known as the Crocodile god, Suchos guarded the treasures of ancient Egypt. Those born under this sign are attracted by beauty, and ancient wise men warned them not to be blinded by it. "Look beyond an attractive appearance and find the real man beneath" they warned, "Listen to your heart, instead of what your eyes tell you."

- God of Fertility
(March 5 to April 9)

If you were born under this sign, don't expect to fall in love at first sight. Those ruled by Osiris need time for love to put down roots in their hearts, but it will grow stronger until it blossoms into a romance that will last a lifetime.

- God of Truth
(April 10 to May 2)

Ptah' s people are very sincere and have to be careful to avoid being hurt in romance. You'll find your Mr/Ms Right practically on your doorstep because you've known him/her for a long time. Because he's / she's a down-to-earth type who appreciates sincerity, he'll / she'll be attracted to you sooner or later, so don't be pushy when you recognise him /her.

- God of Life
(May 3 to June 16)

The hawk-headed god rules a fickle sign - those born under it have roving eyes and a passionate nature. Life for them is finding a series of Mr/Ms Rights, and they have no trouble doing it. For true romantic happiness, you need a very strong, steady type of man/woman who can tame your restless spirit and still give you the excitement you crave.

- Goddess of True Love
(June 17 to July 21)

Beautiful Nephtaphis watches over this most dreamily romantic of all signs. Her children are incredibly loyal to their lovers, and are actually capable of becoming one with them in body, mind and soul. For this reason they have to be careful to choose men/women as caring and considerate as themselves, or they will cruelly be taken advantage of.

- God of Thunder and Lightning
(July 22 to August 18)

Like their turbulent guardian, those born under this sign have quicksilver temperaments and have to keep their thermostats lowered if they want their love lives to heat up. You need an even-tempered, understanding type who can put up with your occasional outbursts.

- Protector God
(August 19 to September 21)

If you were lucky enough to be born under this sign, you can look forward to life-long romance that will never stop growing. Mr/Ms Right for you is the mystery man type who has a multi-faceted personality and will Forever be revealing new and fascinating aspects of himself/herself, Thereby continually giving you something new about himself for you to love.

- Sun God
(September 22 to October 15)

You'll have no trouble finding Mr/Ms Right because you're what every man/woman is looking for - tender,understanding, passionate, and Intensely loyal. Men/Women will flock to you, so you can afford to be choosy. Pick the man/woman who is most deserving of the prize you are, and don't look back. Your only fault is a tendency to wonder if you made the right choices in the past, so keep your eyes peeled on the future.

- Goddess of Miracles
(October 16 to November 9)

Those born under the sign of this ancient Egypt's chief goddess have a magic touch. With a smile, they can captivate any man/woman who attracts them. Finding Mr/Ms Right is easy for Isis' sons/daughters - they can spot him/her a mile off and snare him/her with their great charm.

- God of Light
(November 10 to December 3)

Thoth's children have a hard time displaying their feelings, especially the romantic ones. When you meet Mr/Ms Right, show him how you feel - don't keep him/her guessing.

- Goddess of Music and the Arts
(December 4 to December 31)

Hathor' s children are in love with love. They tend to fall head over heels in love with the first man that shows any interest in them, and they stick to them like glue. Keep a level head and be sure he's really Mr/Ms Right. Your type of man/woman likes harmony, and you have to show him/her that you're the one who can provide it.

There's no such thing as
a bad hug, only good ones
and great ones


Nonfattening and
they don't cause cancer or cavities..


all natural
with no preservatives, artificial
ingredients or pesticide residue...


Cholesterol-free,
naturally sweet, 100% wholesome
and they are a completely
renewable resource...


Easy to care for, they don't require batteries,
tune-ups, or x-rays...


Nontaxable,
fully returnable and energy efficient...


Safe in
all kinds of weather...

In fact,

especially good for
cold and rainy days
and

Exceptionally
effective in treating problems
like bad dreams or Monday blues...

Never wait until tomorrow to hug
someone you could hug today,
because when you give one,
you get one right back
your way!

...haaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy..............Ü

INSPIRING THOUGHTS

Anger is a condition in which
the tongue works faster than the mind.

You can't change the past,
but you can ruin the present
by worrying over the future.

Love...and you shall be loved.

God always gives His best to those
who leave the choice with Him.

All people smile in the same language.

A hug is a great gift... one size fits all.
It can be given for any occasion
and it's easy to exchange.

Everyone needs to be loved...
especially when they do not deserve it.

The real measure of a man's wealth
is what he has invested in eternity.

Laughter is God's sunshine.

Everyone has beauty
but not everyone sees it.

It's important for parents to live
the same things they teach.

Thank God for what you have,
TRUST GOD for what you need.

If you fill your heart with regrets of yesterday
and the worries of tomorrow,
you have no today to be thankful for.

Man looks at outward appearance
but the Lord looks within.

The choice you make today
will usually affect tomorrow.

Take time to laugh, for it is
the music of the soul.

If anyone speaks badly of you,
live so none will believe it.

Patience is the ability to idle your motor
when you feel like stripping your gears.

Love is strengthened by working
through conflicts together.

The best thing parents can do
for their children is to love each other.

Harsh words break no bones
but they do break hearts.

To get out of a difficulty,
one usually must go through it.

We take for granted the things
that we should be giving thanks for.

Love is the only thing that can be
divided without being diminished.

Happiness is enhanced by others
but does not depend upon others.

For every minute you are angry with someone,
you lose 60 seconds of happiness
that you can never get back.

Do what you can, for who you can,
with what you have, and where you are.

For those who are no longer with us, let's pray for them, as one day, we will see each other again...

Uuwi Ako Mag-Isa

Haay, salamat naman at uwian na. Kanina pa ako inip na inip umuwi, aba ang hirap atang magpanggap na may ginagawa. Galing ko na ngang matulog ng dilat eh, sakit nga lang sa ulo. Paalis na sana ako ng biglang nag-text yung pinsan ko at hihintayin nya daw ako sa baba ng building para sabay na kaming umuwi. Kaya hayun, nagsinungaling na naman akong kunwari ay may gagawin pa ako para lang maiwasan sya.

Ewan ko ba, bakit ayokong may kasabay samantalang yung iba ay naghihintay o di kaya ay may susunduin pa para lang may makasabay sa pag-uwi. Hindi naman ako loner, basta lang gusto ko mag-isa akong umuuwi. Gusto ko wala akong kakilalang kasakay sa jeep. Gusto ko mag-isa lang ako sa byahe.

Ano nga bang meron sa jeep? Ano nga bang nangyayari sa byahe ko pag-umuuwi ako?

Madami. Iba-ibang klaseng tao. Iba-ibang klaseng komedya.

Case # 1

"Aray, ano ba?"

Madalas na dialogue ng mga babaeng feeling commercial model ng shampoo kung ipatangay sa hangin ang buhok. Mga walang pakialam kahit na ang mga katabi nila ay hirap na hirap na sa pag-iwas sa paghampas nito sa mukha nila. Kaya ako kapag di na ako makapagpigil, hinihila ko na yung buhok, sabay sorry kunwari akala ko buhok ko yun. At kapag sinusumpong ako, kinakalabit ko na at sinasabihan kong hindi ako kumakain ng buhok.

Case # 2

"Blah, blah, blah.'

Mga taong feeling sila lang ang sakay na kung mag-usap ay dinig ng lahat ng pasahero. Nakakaaliw sila minsan lalo na't mahaba ang byahe at walang radyo yung jeep. Pampalipas oras din sila, minsan nga gusto ko ng sumabat dun sa kwentuhan nila lalo na kapag nakaka-relate ako. Pero kapag inaantok ako at di na makapagpigil tinitignan ko sila na parang gusto kong dukutin ang lalamunan nila.

Case # 3:

"Pakiabot lang po."

Kapag napaupo ka ng medyo malapit-lapit sa driver, asahan mong magiging taga-abot ka ng bayad. Ok lang sana yun eh, hwag ka lang makaka-tyempo ng driver na may pagka-manyakis na nanadyang manghaplos ng kamay. O kaya naman ng driver na parang di pa ata nakakaalam na uso na ang deodorant. O kaya naman ng driver na mas malakas pang bumuga sa tambutso nya ang bunganga. Syempre wala naman akong magawa kundi ang magtakip na lang ng ilong at umurong agad kapag medyo lumuwang. At meron namang mga pasaherong sobrang bait na hindi ka pa nakakapagsalita ay kinukuha na sa kamay mo ang bayad mo. Meron din syempreng matatapang na kapag hindi mo nakuha agad yung bayad nila ay medyo itataas ang boses at may kasama pang ismid. Hay naku, pede ba wala akong kumisyon sa pag-abot ng bayad nyo ha.

Case # 4:

"Makikiusog nga."

Para sa mga kung umupo ay kala mo pang-dalawang tao ang binayaran. May mga babaeng kung umupo ay nakalihis, walang pakialam na yung katabi nya kalahating pwet na lang ang nakaupo. Meron din mga lalaking kung makaupo ay halos mangingimi kang tumingin sa kanya dahil sa laki ng pagkakabukaka. Animo'y may kung anong pinoprotektahan sa pagitan ng kanyang mga hita. Kapag ipit na ipit na ako, sinasabayan ko ang pag-preno ng mama sa pag-usog. Pasensyahan na lang kung mapalakas.

Case # 5:

"Ooozzz."

Wala namang masama kung matulog ka habang nasa byahe, pero sana lang walang dantayan at basagan ng bao. Kapag may katabi akong natutulog na, hinahayaan ko lang (syempre alangan namang pigilan ko) at kapag babagsak na ung ulo nya sa 'kin, bigla kong ibinababa balikat ko para magulantang sya. Pero kapag cute ibang usapan na yan. Itinataas ko pa balikat ko para makahilig at ng makatulog sya ng maayos at ok lang na magka-untugan kami, malay mo magpakilala pa sya, asa pa.

Case # 6:

"Mama, para ho."

May mga driver na di mo mapipigilang mapamura sa sobrang tagal bago huminto na halos kailanganin mo ng sumakay pabalik sa layo ng pinagbabaan sa 'yo. Meron namang hihinto kahit na sa gitna ng kalsada mabawasan lang agad ang sakay nya. At meron ding halos mahalikan mo na yung katabi o kung minalas-malas ka ay mahuhulog ka pa dahil sa biglang pagpreno nya. May mga pasahero namang hindi pa nakuntento sa pagkalakas-lakas na pagsabi ng para at kumakatok pa sa bubong. Merong namang magbabayad kapag pababa na at may gana pang magalit kapag hindi agad naihinto ang sasakyan. At syempre merong mga nagmamadaling akala mo ay mauubusan ng lupa kung bumaba, kasehodang mabunggo at matapakan nyang lahat ng daraanan nya. Pero pamatay pa ring yung minsang may nakasakay akong mama na pagkalakas-lakas at paulit-ulit na sumisigaw ng "Bayad ho, bayad ho, bayad ho." Syempre yung driver, kuntodo extend ng kamay nya. Nakatingin na lahat dun sa mama na kumakatok-katok pa sa bubong ng jeep. Sabay naalala nyang "Para" pala ang dapat nyang isinisigaw. Nyahaha.tawa ko ng tawa pagkababa nung mama!

Case # 7:

"Hon, love, etc."

Syempre pa, hindi mawawala ang mga mag-syotang kala mo may sariling mundo na kung maglampungan ay parang mga pusang di mapakali. Libreng sine 'to, rated 18, kaya lang nakakabitin din lalo na kapag nauna kang bumaba sa kanila. Meron tuloy mga lalaking 'nag-iinit' at biglang bibitaw ang kamay sa pagkakahawak sa bakal para kunwari mapapasubsob sa katabi nila o kaya naman bigla mong mararamdaman na yung siko nila nasa tagiliran mo na. Sarap sampalin ng mga ganung lalaki. Di naman sa nakikialam ako, pero wala namang inggitan.

Hay naku, ilan lang yan sa mga nararanasan ko kapag umuuwi ako. Dami pa kong kwento kaya lang uwian na eh.

Magbi-byahe pa ako.

Sasakay na ako ng jeep.

Uuwi ulit akong mag-isa.

whhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!

we enjoyed that night and lalo ko lang
napatunayan sa sarili ko na mahal ko na pala ang
hinayupak na bestfrend ko......

syempre ano pa ba ang sunod na event sa prom
kundi ang graduation na db? the night before the
graduation, we talked on the phone na para bang
it would be the last time na maririnig namen ang
boses ng isat-isa..... i’ve waited for the
moment
na mabanggit nya na may feelings din sya and
hindi naman ako nagkamali.... tinanong nya ako
kung may possibility daw na maging kame.... i
know na maiinis kayo sa ken dahil alam nyo ba
ang sagot ko?
ah, eh.... hindi pwede kase bestfrends
tayo eh.... yung mga anak na lang naten yung
ipag- partner naten....
sa isip-isip ko.... ang tanga!
pano ko nasabi ang ganong words? pero wala na
akong magagawa..... alam namang bawiin ko pa eh
di nahuli naman ako db? pero ang
tanga ko
talga....

cyempre college na.... im so proud to say na
napunta naman ako sa magandang school and take
note... pareho kame ng skul..... ano to?
kailangan bang ituloy ang naudlot na
pagmamahalan namen?.... hehehe....

nagkaboyfriend ako for a year and a
half....
minahal ko sya pero there are these conflicts
and problems na di na kayang ayusin....
in short.... nagbreak kame.....

i guess God meant that to happen kasi yon din
yung time na nagkita kame ng bestfrend ko.....
sa sobrang miss namen ang isa't-isa....
sabay na kameng umuwi, kumain, pumasok.....
im happy pero parang lalo ko lang
pinahirapan ang sarili ko
dahil my feelings for that guy grows each and
everytime that we are together... buti na lang
magaling akong magtago at magpigil....
hehehe.... bilib kayo noh?.....

one morning, im so busy preparing my project
that would be pass on that same
day....
alam kong dumating na sya at nasa likuran ko
na ang mokong pero dahil sobrang pressure
sa project.... gusto ko man syang dambahan...
cyempre mamayang gabi na lang di ba?
hehehe.... di ko sya masyadong napansin.....

may inabot syang sulat sa aken and he asked if i
could join him sa lunch.... i said yes.... then,
alis na cya.... alam naman kc nyang im busy.....

when i was about to enter the room, somebody
bumped me and my precious project fell... gusto
ko mang magalet... what can i do db? instead i
ask my prof to give me another chance to do my
project.... naalala ko si mokong.... the lunch
date.... kinuha ko ang cell ko to text him that
i cant come to our meeting.... e kaso.... pag
tinamaan k nga naman ng malas.... check operator
service daw.... i tried to look for friends or
other kakilala pero malas that day talaga....

and so i took my lunch all by my self....
naalala ko yung letter.... hinanap ko sa bag...
WALA!!!! bumalik me sa corridor praying na
andon pa yung sulat.... wala ren....
God! why? minsan lang magbigay ng sulat yon....
nawala pa.... dont know
how to tell him about the letter....

and so days and weeks passed, pag nagkikita
kame... di nya ako pinapansin... ako, i tried to
talk to him pero alam kong may kasalanan ako
pero ganon ba kalaki ang nagawa kong
di
pagpunta at ganon na lang ang iwas nya?...
sige... hinayaan ko na lang....

months na ang binilang... i heard that he was
dating a girl from the same school that we are
in... masakit.... na sa iba ko pa narinig na
sila na.... mas masakit na wala na akong
halaga sa kanya.....

basta... ilang araw din yon na ganon ang
nararamdaman ko.... weeks.... months....

gagraduate na po ako.... i wonder what's instore
for me in my last day in school.... and so i
thought na puntahan yung favorite hang out
namen.... when i was about to get near the

place.... i saw him... with the girl.... umiiyak
ang bruha but i cant hear what they are talking
about.... so i’ve decided to get out of that
place before my tears burst out....
and then a common friend ang sumalubong sa
aken.... saying na buntis ang girl....
syempre.... durog na durog ang puso ko....
kung kaya nyo lang ma-imagine yung

naramdaman ko.....

the night of that same day.... naloka ang lola
nyo.... nagparamdam ang mokong pagkaraan ng
pagkatagal-tagal na panahon... i thought it was
something good for me... for us.... pero i was
wrong.... so wrong..... he gave me a wedding
invitation and isa ako sa bridesmaids..... the
girl... she was waiting in the car.... o db?
dati motor lang ngaun... car na....

and so the wedding came.... maganda po ako
nun.... sabi ng nanay ko..
pero wala ng nagsecond the motion eh....
so naniwala na lang ako sa nanay ko....
then, there was this professor who
came to see me.... he handed over a letter with

my name carefully printed on the enveloped....
he said that he looked for the owner of
that letter kaso lang po malaki po ang skul
namin kaya mahirap magkahanapan db?
and so nung nakita nya ang name ko sa
invitation, he decided to bring
the letter thinking that it could save souls...
daw....

and so i was about to open the letter when the
priest ask kung sino daw ang tututol... dedma
ako.... alam namang manggulo pa ko noh....

binasa ko na ang letter..... nakakatouch po
talaga.... he opened up his feelings for me....
hoping na meron din daw akong feelings for

him.... he ask that if i will show up to our
hang - out the next day after he gave his
letter, then it means that i also have
feelings for him and that he would love me
for the rest of our lives.... but if i
wont.... then he will never open that topic
again.... he pleaded to me na sana
pumunta ako......

if only i have that letter.... if only i knew
about it.... kung di lang ako clumsy and carelss
to keep that letter... things would be
diffrent.... if only.....

and so i heard the priest announced the couple
as husband and wife.... ang sakit......

picture taking..... gusto mang sumabog ng
nararamdaman ko.... as you know.... magaling
akong magpigil.... pero masakit po talaga....
sobra......

after the picture taking...... niyakap ako ng
bestfrend ko.... ang higpit.... and teary eyed
nyang cnabi na....




i still love you.....

Brain Teaser

Here is a nice brain teaser for you check it out.

You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy night. You pass by a bus stop, and you see three people waiting for the bus:
1. An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.
2. An old friend who once saved your life.
3. The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.
Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing that there could only be one passenger in your car. Think before you continue reading.
You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and thus you should save her first; or you could take the old friend because he once saved your life, and this would be the perfect chance to pay him back.
However, you may never be able to find your perfect dream lover again.
This is actually a question during a job interview. The guy who got the
job answered:

"I would give the car keys to my old friend and let
him take the lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for the
bus with the woman of my dreams."

Sometimes, we gain more if we are able to give up our stubborn thought limitations. Never forget to "Think outside of the box!"Ü

Love is like waiting for a bus. When the bus
comes, you look at it and you say to yourself
"eeee...so full....cannot sit down, I'll wait for
the next one."

So you let the bus go and waited for the second
bus. Then the second bus came, you looked at it
you said, "eeee...this bus is so old...so shabby!"


So you let the bus go and again, decided to wait
for the next bus.

After a while another bus came, it's not crowded,
not old but you said, "eeee...not air conditioned
...better wait for the next one." So again you
let the bus go and decided to wait for the next
bus.


Then the sky started to get dark as it was
getting late. You panicked and jumped immediately
inside the next bus. It is not until much later that
you found out that you had boarded the wrong bus!
And you wasted your time and money just to get
into the wrong one!

Even if an air conditioned bus comes, you can't
ensure that the air conditioned bus won't break
down or whether or not the airconditioner will
be too cold for you.

Wanting to get what you want is not wrong. But it
wouldn't hurt to give other people a chance. If
you find that the "bus" doesn't suit you just
press the red button and get off the bus! Hey, who
said life is fair??? The best thing to do is be
observant and open-minded. If it doesn't suit you,
get off.

I'm sure you've had this experience before. You
saw a bus coming (the bus you want of course). You
flagged it but the driver acted as if he did not
see you and zoomed pass you! It just wasn't meant
for you!

The bottom line is, being loved is like waiting
for a bus you want. Getting on the bus and
appreciating the bus by giving it a chance depends
totally on you. If you haven't made any choice,
WALK!

Walking is like being single. The good side of it
is you can still choose any bus you want...the
rest who couldn't afford another ride would just
have to be content with the bus they rode on, ugly
or not.

Also, sometimes it is better to choose a bus you
are already familiar with rather than to gamble
with a bus that is unfamiliar to you. But then
again, life wouldn't be complete without the risks
involved.

But there is one bus that I failed to tell you
about.- the Bus you do not have to wait for, the
Bus that will stop on its own and ask you if you
wish to come inside, then take you for a joy ride
for the rest of your life.

Hope you get to ride on that bus! :)
