WISH-O-WISH

Bookstore for me is one of the best places here on earth where i could tame those little demons masquerading as stress and depression inside me.

I basically have a large databank of almost all available photography resources out there... but i would, if i could, secure the hard copy of all those ebooks.

akin na lang lahat!!!

Here's another... gusto ko din to!!! I was surprised to see myself addicted to Mr. Francis Kong. Too bad my pockets are always kinda empty .. gotta save up to have at least one in my shelf :D

baka lang merong gusto magregalo sa kin sa birthday ko..



hahaha

peace

STOP DIGGING THE HOLE

Remember this: If you do not want to hit bottom - stop digging the hole.

Depression is a killer and if you don't have a personal toolbox that contains depression busters then you may just add one more problem to the many you already have.

FISHVILLE

Lois, you are the big fish in a small stagnant pond. Why not try stirring that small stagnant pond first before jumping into a big pond full of large fishes?

Sir, I did try to stir the small pond but to no avail. I am up for the challenge of diving to the large pond full of large fishes. Take the risk if i must, as life is but one.

aabot kaya ako sa next level?

ABANGAN.

I Know I Am But Summer To Your Heart

I know I am but summer to your heart,
And not the full four seasons of the year;
And you must welcome from another part
Such noble moods as are not mine, my dear.
No gracious weight of golden fruits to sell
Have I, nor any wise and wintry thing;
And I have loved you all too long and well
To carry still the high sweet breast of Spring.
Wherefore I say: O love, as summer goes,
I must be gone, steal forth with silent drums,
That you may hail anew the bird and rose
When I come back to you, as summer comes.
Else will you seek, at some not distant time,
Even your summer in another clime.

Edna St. Vincent Millay

i'm extremely sad.

PITY ME NOT

San Felipe, Zambales Sunset / 040910

Pity me not because the light of day
At close of day no longer walks the sky;
Pity me not for beauties passed away
From field and thicket as the year goes by;
Pity me not the waning of the moon,
Nor that the ebbing tide goes out to sea,
Nor that a man’s desire is hushed so soon,
And you no longer look with love on me.

This love I have known always: love is no more
Than the wide blossom which the wind assails,
Than the great tide that treads the shifting shore,
Strewing fresh wreckage gathered in the gales.
Pity me that the heart is slow to learn
What the swift mind beholds at every turn.

Pity Me Not by Edna St. Vincent Millay

Refuse to be bitter

Because it's Monday and i don't wanna to spoil my whole week.. i kept my fingers from pounding the hell out of my keyboard.

That abstinence has expired NOW.

I was tuned in this morning to 99.5rt's disenchanted kingdom segment and it was indeed an amusing conversation with the DJs discussion on what could be worst than waking up to a Monday morning.

I would, if i could, called up the station and relate to them what had just happened the moment i stepped in the company premises, worst than waking up to a Monday morning.

>>> Someone refused to see and talk to me after being bitter for not having been invited to the out of town vacation we had this weekend. I wasn't even the organizer, i was just also invited, and i couldn't tag her along, not only for the reason that the organizer didn't want her to be around, but also for some obvious financial complications. Add to that, there wasn't available space for an additional person outside the planned logistics. Well, here's the thing, when she saw me inside the locker room this morning, she refused to enter thinking all the while that i hadn't noticed her peeking behind the shelves. Hmmmnnn. Let alone her bitterness. Funny thing, i also refused to give her my pasalubong. hahaha.

>>> Someone tried to use my pc here at my workstation. Failing to log in to windows, he/she just left my pc open for 3days and 11 hours. What the "insert here the F word here"

>>> I instructed the new lady engineers to lock the door of our comfort room so as not to be abused by production people come nightshift. Lo and behold, they left it open for everybody's use... for three straight days! Epic Fail!

Well, waking up to a Monday Morning hasn't always been a worst thing. Forcing myself to wake up to another week starter and facing the boss and feeling-boss here at work has always reminded me that i am such one lucky two-legged creature blessed with a six-day per week job that enables me to post an entry here in my blog. Clap clap clap.

So let alone my own spasms of anger.. i got a booster from the best of the best..

God forgive me for my kamalditahan. Sorry na po :)

find someone who's worth the torture

Get the next best thing... find someone who's worth the torture."

beating the red light

I was stricken with such a dumb spasm of urgency this morning.

I beat the red light at the Greenfield intersection.


BAD LOIS!

Am I on my riotous ways of transformation?

Wag naman.

Magari. *in Italian accent*

Sometimes there are a couple of bullets that i need to bite in order for me to stay happy as i would have always wanted to be. My life has been pretty chaotic lately, bringing me changes that i could not have anticipated.

Well.. well.. well..

I'm moving on :)

and beating the RED LIGHTS of my life.

cruel tricks

Life played cruel tricks on me today.

I received a message from someone that has long forgotten my existence.
Firehouse music was being played in the supermarket Lai and I have gone this evening.
.............'You know you're everything to me and I could never see
.............The two of us apart
.............And you know I give myself to you and no matter what you do
.............I promise you my heart

Sniper from the Bell Tower

http://photodito.com/2009/07/taal-church/

Basilica de San Martin de Tours in Taal is the largest church in Asia, standing 96 meters long and 45 meters wide. The Augustinian Missionaries started construction in 1756, but it was destroyed when Taal volcano erupted in 1754. It took a century for the church to achieve its present form. St. Martin of Tours is the patron of Taal, whose feast is celebrated every November 11.

Taal Basilica was first built in present day San Nicolas, Batangas, by Fray.Deigo Espina in 1575 under the Augustinians, with San Martin de Tours as patron saint. In 1754 the church was destroyed along with the town Taal in the eruption of the Taal volcano. It was then that the church was transferred to its present site. Father Martin Aguirre donated the land for the new church in 1755, but in 1849 it was destroyed again by an earthquake. Construction of the new church began in 1856 to 1878, the Spanish architect Luciano Oliver commissioned to design and manage the construction of the present church. A small tower was made on its left side but it was destroyed during Japanese occupation. It was reconstructed later and it was then taller than the original. The church was made into a basilica on 8 December, 1954 and was declared a national shrine on January 16, 1974. The conical coronation of the Our Lady of Caysasay was also made in basilica in 1954. Taal Basilica is consider as the biggest church in the Philippines and in Asia.

ROAD SIGNS

Rolling the wheels on a Good Friday has paved it's own way for life's reflections drawn from the SLEX roadsigns.

You are entering a Petron Lakbay Alalay Zone.

and we have long entered a God-Alalay zone.

Use signal lights when changing lanes.



Eyes on the road. Hands on the wheel.

Focus.

DNT TXT AND DRV.

Focus. Don't serve two masters at a time.

Check your breaks

Know when to stop.

ATTENTION! It's what the road needs.

ATTENTION. Isn't that what i also need? :D

Relax and Enjoy the ride

Relax. This is life. Yeehaw!

Sometimes the road we are traveling winds through bumps and shadows.. but there are signs posted if we keep our minds and hearts, as well as our eyes and ears, open.
Go within and look for the road signs to guide your path.

It's so painful

SADNESS IS A PLACE

Deep grief sometimes is almost like a specific location, a coordinate on a map of time. When you are standing in that forest of sorrow, you cannot imagine that you could ever find your way to a better place.

But if someone can assure you that they themselves stood in that same place, and now have moved on..

sometimes ...

... this will bring hope.

-Elizabeth Gilbert in Eat, Pray, Love
