It has been a long time since I have written something here. I have to be honest, my private journal has been really helpful. But I wish I wrote more about school, ideas, philosophies, the future…
Yesterday, I was at the field of my school, sitting on one of the benches. I have always loved that place, especially in the afternoon when the wind is blowing, the leaves are falling, and the...

sarap manisi, wala namang masisi
ayoko na magalit— sayo. kasi hindi mo kasalanan. gusto ko lang sisihin, gusto ko lang magalit— ang/sa mundo, ang/sa buhay. naiipit na tayo. at ang hirap hirap hirap. parang na-trap sa devil snare. or sa garbage compactor ng death star.
mas madaling umalis. mas madaling umalis at sabihin “ayoko na!” sabay grand exit, malapelikula. ang hilig ko pa naman mag-walk-out. (ang...

On February 6, I will be performing a translated monologue of Nina from Anton Chekov’s The Seagull
One of the little ways in which I see myself in Nina, or Why I’ll never blame Nina
Kostya loved her dearly, there is no doubt about it. But I think Nina loved Kostya, too. And that a part of her wanted to stay, — wished that the love Kostya had for her and her for him were enough. But...

What happens if you fall in love with a writer?
karenfelloutofbedagain:
Lots of things might happen. That’s the thing about writers. They’re unpredictable. They might bring you eggs in bed for breakfast, or they might all but ignore you for days. They might bring you eggs in bed at three in the morning. Or they might wake you up for sex at three in the morning. Or make love at four in the afternoon. They might not sleep at all. Or they might...

life is really fucked up.
When you become smarter than the people who told you to learn in the first place, they may hurt you. And when they hurt you, its pretty much safe to say that life is really fucked up.

This 2012, I hope...
vivatregina:
That you fall in love with someone who loves you—really loves you. (Or fall even deeper in love if you’re already there.) That you finally, finally fall in love with yourself.
That you breathe and allow yourself to be silly every now and then. That you don’t take everything so seriously. That you don’t forget how to have fun. That you never start thinking you’re too old for it.

Its just one of those evenings.
The vehicle glides through Leon Guinto effortlessly. I wait at the Pergola, admiring the Christmas lights lit only during the evenings. For some time, Anna and I converse with each other and talk about our plans for the next year. Parents wait for their children, and you see their beaming faces. A child runs to her mother, as the latter envelops him in a tight embrace. I cannot help but smile....

Bakit
parang noon kung kelan pa ako nagkaroon ng Facebook, tsaka tumaas ang frustration levels ko? Tumitindi yung heartbreak kasi mas updated ka sa bawat pagpalit ng relationship status o pag-upload ng photo o pagpost ng status message. Hindi mo na nga “friend,” nakikita mo pa rin. Kung hindi lang din ako dependent sa communicative and information-gathering capacity ng social networking site...

Today, I danced.
And somehow… I found out that I dance better than I act better than I speak.
Today, I danced. And it was wonderful

WatchThe places in which my midnight cyber-wanderings take me, greatly amaze and amuse me. I figure I probably would have finished more tasks in shorter periods of time without them, but these are the things that keep me sane. On a side note, this video makes me want a LomoKino for my own, despite the fact that I think its excessive use of film is unreasonable.

I have to ask myself why I care so much.

Why do people like to point fingers? Look at yourselves first. Let us see who really is prompt.
You did not even ask. You just expected I would do it. I am not that stupid. I can say no, you know.
I am grateful, but I do not like it that you see me as someone who would agree to everything that you say or give anything you want.
End rant.

It doesn’t mean anything. Shut up, Alekx. Stop imagining things too much.
