Before Sunset
Jesse: Oh God, why didn't we exchange phone numbers and stuff? Why didn't we do that?
Celine: Because we were young and stupid.
Jesse: Do you think we still are?
Celine: I guess when you're young, you just believe there'll be many people with whom you'll connect with. Later in life, you realize it only happens a few times.
Jesse: And you can screw it up, you know, misconnect.

For the lovelorn fools and the hopeless romantics
February 14, 2012, Tuesday,
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone.
I hope each and every one of you experienced a happy and memorable one. I don’t know what else to say since nothing much happened to me. I don’t want this to be overly dramatic. I really dislike people like that, heavily reacting to how alone they’ll be today. If it’s really like that then why should...

For the hopeful, forced and deceived
No one falls for the wrong person.
It’s 7:26pm, and I’m sick, coughing every now and then with a coming fever in a few hours, but I can’t shake off a certain thought that seems to seep in deep into my mind. You can explain it in your own way, or you can contradict it by all means, but I’m very confident in saying that no one falls for the wrong person. We can fall in love...

Hey, I know you might not be able to read this, but I just wanted to say I’m sorry on how I answered you a few weeks ago. I’m pretty sure it was you. I’m sorry for being a douche. It took me quite a while to realize what I did, so yeah, I’m very much sorry. It might be over something extremely trivial, but you know I don’t like the feeling...

It’s rather quiet tonight. My exams are finally over, and I’m feeling neutral about everything. I don’t exactly know why, but I don’t care what the outcome is anymore. The only thing that matters right now is that it’s over. The exams may be over, but I’m not free yet. I still have a lot of things to do for next week. I have pending...
Anonymous asked: And so i was browsing your answered anon questions... I'll revise and add a word to a previous question that has been asked already. What CREATURE are you most afraid of? Afraid as in you'll scream like a little girl when you see it and comes to you unexpectedly. :)))) I can't imagine hahaha!
Anonymous asked: TRUE: "Like I said, we fall in love for many reasons. It could range from the shallowest of things up to the most complex reasons." that being said, I would like to know the shallowest reason why you fell in love for someone. Why you fell in love with me. ;)
Anonymous asked: Your Anons are weird. Why ask you something about Katy Perry...
Anonymous asked: I don't get it. Why the hell did Katy Perry (gorgeous, sexy, has piercing eyes, and voluptuous body) fall in love with Russell Brand?! He's not handsome at all :( Can someone please enlighten me. This girl undoubtedly needs a visit to the Opthalmologist. Indeed, not only lots of money can make you appear desirable to girls, but also a great sense of humor. Kudos to Mr. Brand. WE SHOULD...

It’s raining. I’ve never felt this peaceful since after the first trimester of my 4th year High School life. I still haven’t studied though, but that’s not the point. I’ve been reading The Perks of Being a Wallflower again the whole afternoon. Maybe it’s just Charlie’s writing taking effect on me, but I really am feeling...

Life’s standstill right now. I’m feeling as if I’ve wasted time. I’ve been doing everything for my studies, but the more I do them, the more senseless life comes out. I should be enjoying my free time with friends, but instead, I’m stuck here studying for the coming preliminary exams. Even the past weeks felt like a breeze. I was living...

Endings and its beginnings to what's left of it.
January 2, 2012, Monday,
And in a minute too soon, the year said its goodbye and left us to a whole new start.
I can’t help but say to myself that we’re all back to square one. The year ended as any year would have, full of hopes and dreams, and as any year would also have, it would eventually end in either disappointment or triumph. 2011 has been entirely special to me compared to...

False Promises
We depended on promises,
not knowing the depth of the words
under the bedtime cuddles,
intimate goodbye kisses and
well-spent hours of laughter.
.
We were young,
deluded with the future
of growing up together
and waking up
side by side each morning.
But like any other romances
that bloom through the course of summer,
we eventually caught on
that under the promises we exchanged

A sudden loss of carols and spirit
December 23, 2011, Friday,
Tomorrow’s Christmas Eve already, and for some reason, I’m not looking forward to it. I’m not much in a festive mood today or any days prior to this one, but it’s really sad though that I’m not feeling Christmas in any way. I used to get all excited weeks before Christmas Eve. Jumping in joy as I gaze at the stacks of gifts under our...

Nostalgia
December 18, 2011, Sunday,
I was looking around the bookstore looking for some Haruki Murakami books. Despite being broke, I was always fond of staring at books that I’ll buy someday. That habit gave me a sort of thrill and excitement.
After passing by the general fiction shelves, I realized that I was alone. I could hear the aircon running behind me, the voices of the salesladies talking, and...

Looking for a way out
“How will we ever get out of this labyrinth of suffering?” -Alaska Young, Looking for Alaska
I spent most of the day reading Looking for Alaska. I don’t want to finish it yet, but so far, it’s wonderful, really wonderful, but no matter how beautiful the book may be, I really don’t want to finish it just yet. Maybe it’s because I’m scared on how...

Labyrinths and Perhaps
Alaska: I'm not going to be one of those people who sits around talking about what they're gonna do. I'm just going to do it. Imagining the future is a kind of nostalgia.
Miles: Huh?
Alaska: You spend your whole life stuck in a labyrinth, thinking about how you'll escape it one day, and how awesome it will be, and imagining that future keeps you going, but you never do it. You just use the future to escape the present.
Miles: Sometimes I don't get you.
Alaska: You never get me. That's the whole point.

Expectations
Drifting off
to space,
where I could rest,
muted from the world,
I laid on my bed,
hearing nothing
but the disappointed whispers of
tomorrow, inching in
to consume my heart and
crush my dreams.
*Got bored during Theology a while ago, so I ended up writing my very first free verse poem. I rarely write poetry, but since we’ll have a poetry writing session next week, I better write...

Looking Forward
The sound of the waters rushing woke me up. It was morning, and I slept through the entire night laying on the grass under the sky.
I remained still, touching my lips. I could still feel him with his head on my lap and my hand on his cheek. The warmth of when our lips met was also there. I clutched my chest as I felt the sensation slipping away, slowly being replaced by loneliness.
The emptiness...

Looking Back
I was on my way back.
The night was silent and no sound could be heard other than the monotonous tune of the mating crickets. If I remember correctly, it was right here when I confessed to her. The rain ruined my moment, but she got up to her tip-toed feet and kissed me up front. Her perfect soft lips, the aftertaste of cherry, her hand cuddling my left ear, it felt only yesterday when...

Dream Journal Entry # 4
November 22, 2011, Tuesday,
I’ve had a couple of experience with lucid dreaming before. I’ve even written about it here. Thanks to those experience, I’ve grew fond of forcing myself to achieve lucidity while dreaming. For a month now, I’ve been training my body to grow a habit of certain things that might help me achieve this, and just this afternoon, I’ve had my...

Five Centimeters Per Second
“Each minute felt like an eternity. With clear malice towards me, time continued to drift slowly forwards around me. I clenched my teeth tightly together and could do nothing but endure the pain and hold back my tears.”
Five Centimeters Per Second is a film about the relationship of Takaki and Akari and how distance gravely affected them. It chronicles the life of Takaki into...

The Son of Neptune
He’s back. Everybody’s favorite demigod is back yet again to save the world from an impending doom. It’s been a while since we’ve last heard from Percy Jackson. Last time I’ve read about him was in The Last Olympian and that felt like years ago.
The Son of Neptune is the second installment to the new Heroes of Olympus series which is the sequel to the Percy...

Second Chances
November 15, 2011, Tuesday
Risks are worth taking in life. Imagine going through the constant torture of waking up everyday thinking of how different your life may be if you’ve done one thing differently yesterday. It’s a simple what if, but it does a lot to a person, so it’s best to take risks at times where you think it’ll matter. If it’s a mistake, learn from it....

Back to reality.
November 13, 2011, Sunday,
Like with everything else in this world, things eventually come to an end. The month-long break from college was mostly what every student asked for after enduring hours of pain from the first semester, but venturing right back to classes, I didn’t know what to feel. Every semester’s a new world now and a new start. It was frustrating at some point since...
