BELIEVE

I’ve got nothing with me,
I’m like a soldier with no gun,
I’m on a journey
With nothing but the Lord beside me.

He told me to pray,
He asked me to wait,
He said “believe”,
It’s on its way!

Grace! Grace!
I’m excited.
I dunno how,
But I know, a miracle its gonna be!

Thank you God,
You never left my side,
Never an orphan, never ambandoned.
Always blessed, always a child of God.

Take it from me,
Turn to god, and be worry-free!

From A Distance

You know what, I didn’t like you the 1st time I saw you …

I was still crushing Jayjay then, hahaha!

But sometime June 07,

I dunno what strucked me to you that I just found myself staring at you.

BOOOM!! the rest is history.

A week later we became friends, now I’m really crushing you big time …

what do I get from this, nuthin I guess.

But I know this all will bear the greatest fruit …

I just have to believe and continue praying,

yes I know someday … one day … you and me … a couple we shall be!

From A Distance

Saw you from a distance,
Heard you from a far.
Met you up close,
Loved you from where you are.

Strum and pluck your guitar,
C’mon sing me songs
Louie, I like you, yes I do!

Dance to the beat,
And flash me a smile,
I’ll love you even if I don’t know why.

Wanna see you more,
Wanna know you more
Wanna be a part of you,
Will you allow me to?

Louie, oh Louie, my Louie …
An asshole, you may be,
Still, it’s you I’m praying for.
Pathetic, I may be,
Knock knock, the angel shall open the door.

Prayers, fasting and belief are my bullets,
One day, “coming soon”, a couple we shall be!

Lemon Tree

I'm now on my 3rd day of fasting ... doing pretty well huh :) - li'l claps for me, haha pathetic! I started Tuesday ... no food intake from 8.01pm - 9.59am, no beer and/or any alcoholic dwinx until Sunday 11.59PM, no yosi (that's the hardest part of all). And I'm (pathetically) doing this mainly for him, yes for Uie! Got a positive GO SIGN from God, yessssssss!!!

"watch and you'll see, someday we'll both be, part of each other's world" - hahaha :)

Music: Lemon Tree

I'm sitting here in the boring room

It's just another rainy

Sunday afternoon

I'm wasting my time

I got nothing to do

I'm hanging around

I'm waiting for you

But nothing ever happens and I wonder

I'm driving around in my car

I'm driving too fast

I'm driving too far

I'd like to change my point of view

I feel so lonely

I'm waiting for you

But nothing ever happens and I wonder

I wonder howI wonder why

Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky

And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree

I'm turning my head up and down

I'm turning turning turning turning turning around

And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree

I'm sitting hereI miss the power

I'd like to go out taking a shower

But there's a heavy cloud inside my head

I feel so tired

Put myself into bed

Well, nothing ever happens and I wonder

Isolation is not good for me

Isolation I don't want to sit on the lemon-tree

I'm steppin' around in the desert of joy

Baby anyhow

I'll get another toy

And everything will happen and you wonder

I wonder howI wonder why

Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky

And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree

I'm turning my head up and down

I'm turning turning turning turning turning around

And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree

And I wonder, wonderI wonder howI wonder why

Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky

And all that I can see, and all that I can see, and all that I can see

Is just a yellow lemon-tree

a walk to remember

what would i give to live where you are?
what would i pay to stay here beside you?
what would i do to see you smiling at me?
where would we walk,
where would we run,
if we could stay all day in the sun ...
just you and me,
and i would be part of your world!

i dont know when,
i dont know how,
but i know something's startin' right now ...
watch and you'll see,
someday i'll be part of your world!

ewan ko

Napapalingon tuwing ika’y dumadaan

Napapangiti, hindi ko alam ang dahilan

Alam kong hindi pwepwedeng maging tayo

Pero minsan nag-iiba ang ikot ng, ang ikot ng mundo (:

Susmaryosep, ‘yung dila ay sumabit

Mapahiya na, ‘di na makalapit

Pero ewan ko, ewan ko
Pero napapansin mo na yata

Nakakahiya naman

Gusto lang naman kitang "titigan" ....

Only One Time

Hi God. First, let me thank you for making this trip possible … thank you for giving me the chance to experience how it is living here; living abroad, learning to stand on my own, learning to appreciate new things and learning the essence of humility and I guess, simplicity too.

On the other hand, I miss my life in Manila … how happy-go-lucky I’am there – I miss Kobe, I miss driving Choi, I miss the busy streets of the Metro, I miss papa, I miss my friends – our gimmicks and all, I miss my cd’s, I miss Louie and the rest of the Bloomfields, I miss VCF … oh well, I’ll be in Manila in a snap … I guess I just have to enjoy Jakarta … I’ll be back here, I know that!

Thank you! mmwah!!! (:

Another Pox Dream

Yes, I’m still here in Jakarta and I’m starting to get the hang of it, good huhh! My day normally starts around 0730 (Jak time) with of course, breakfast (with Claire, Gilbert, Ian and Queal), 1000 ‘til mid day; I’ll do a li’l work and stuff related to it, followed by a meal, afternoon; frolic around and/or bore myself at home, 1900; dinner and chitchats with “big brother” (hahaha), 2100; go swimming and/or soak myself in the Jacuzzi, 2230 DVD time … next is, “good night world, I’m off!”.

Today, I woke up smiling again … the same reason as with the morning of my birthday … POX! Yes, I dreamt of him again and this time it showed scenes of “physical contact” … oh wait, it’s not what you’re thinking – wholesome still (: the dream just showed me and Pox together … talking and smiling … he’s hands are in my lap and he was a bit clingy there … WHOA, how I wish that dream would come true, hahaha, such a pathetic request!

Oh well, going back … today we’re gonna go bowling – just us girls! Then tomorrow we’re gonna go to a mall – frolic, have coffee and eat J.Co.’s (yeah J.Co.’s ‘can’t wait … yummy! I’ll try to bring some for home), Sunday; service at 1045 at JICF and frolic again. As for the coming week, I dunno yet … Safari Adventure, meet up with Pete this coming Thursday, meetings / interviews, photo ops, clubbing, and frolic, whatever comes ... bring it on (:

Music : Dream Walking (of course it's bec of the Pox Dream)

so far so good

To date, I’ve been here in Jakarta for nearly 3 weeks now, and I say: so far so good! I wasn’t expecting this though, I thought that I would be missing home so bad that working and starting an “independent” life here would not be possible for me. Thanks to Claire and to her family for giving me the warmth that I need, of course I do miss Manila – I hell miss my room, my car, Kobe, my family and friends, my life per se! But again, so far so good (:

Tomorrow’s gonna be another work week, good luck to me … ‘wish that I would get to know Ginny, the expat, and I hope and pray that he’d be my genie who’ll grant me 3 wishes (work, expat status, a date) hahaha, not so much of the 3rd wish, but it would be great if we’ll go out (:

Once again, so far so good huhh!

Birthday Bash

For the 1st time, I celebrated my birthday 2 weeks advance and that’s because of my flight to Jakarta. Here’s what happened …

It was Aug 15, Wednesday … I woke up early (not normal for someone nocturnal like me) and it was drizzling – expected since typhoon Egay was told to hit the Metro that very day. I did nuthin but to sing praise songs to the Lord and ask him not make the rain fall down – well not until it’s 11PM. Around 4PM, I hit the showers and was still singing praise songs, I dressed up (karir mode) and I fixed myself pretty well since I’m expecting the Bloomfields gig not to be postposened. 6PM I called up Eastwood City to confirm on things regarding the gig, unfortunately … sadly … poor me … loser me, the gig was cancelled since the typhoon was said to arrived that night. Upon hearing that from the other end of the phone, my world crashed! I didn’t want to go anymore, I just wanna smoke my lungs out and ask God why he’s doing this to me? With a heavy heart and a frowning face, I dragged myself to Off the Grill to meet with friends.

It was really hard to pretend happy when you’re actually not, there’s nuthin I cant think of but LOUIE … a painted huge smile on my face with a pop-up cloud above me saying, “sigh, ang gwapo mo talaga Louie … Thank you God”, but it didn’t happen, all I thought was just a dream L there I was, sipping my beer, smoking my lungs out, forced to listen to the band’s gig, and got no choice but to mingle with friends and I thank them for bearing with me and for all their efforts.

The night went on and I’ve got no choice but to accept my fate, whewww … I finished around 5 bottles of beer, quite a number of yosi sticks, etc … photo ops here and there, chit chats with friends and with Ebet and Anthony (nice meeting you both).

In a nut shell, though with a heavy heart – I still managed to have fun. I owe my friends specially Ysay big time, for without her everything wouldn’t have taken place. The cake made me smile, I must admit it! Thanks for the person who gave it to me, mwah!
