The Music Dies

Tell me how to bring the music back to my life. I am tired. I am fed up. I wanna loosen up and escape but too much ropes were tied on me. Help me get out of here. The room is getting darker and the music is slowly dying. Read more...

SPILLING? SPELLING?

Thea, before you spill everything out, I'm SPILLING it now! Is my SPELLING correct? hahahaha!

I went out with some friends last night to breathe a little. From the office yesterday afternoon, I met Thea at gmall, sipped coffee and had little conversation. My friend came and I introduced Thea. We had dinner and we were driven back to the office where my officemate was waiting for me. She badly needed someone to talk to so I went back. We went to gateway to had some drinks. In the middle of the conversation, I mispronounced the SPELLING as SPILLING. I looked at Thea and I began to laugh hard, harder. Thea too. But my friend and officemate plainly looked us at and began to wonder. Then we explained why. Thea was laughing hard, saying our English diction and grammar would soon become poor if we continue to converse with these people. We were laughing hard. She said we do not need to be very particular this time as we were talking to them. I became too conscious with my English then; trying to speak slowly and clearly so I won't be making mistakes. Boredom hit us so we changed place and did videoke. Before the midnight strike, we went home. We were driven home but I insist we just drop by at Thea's place. I instantly slept when i got home.

Trust and Honesty

TRUST and HONESTY. Do these two words go hand in hand? Why do we find it hard to be honest to someone close and dear to us? Are we afraid they get hurt or are we just afraid they won’t accept us after finding the truth?

They always say the truth will set you free but when will someone got the courage to set himself free? Bearing a sensitive issue is very difficult and heart-sobbing especially if it is kept alone. It is a great burden. I know. Yet, people chose to succumb themselves to these feelings than risk and confess what is truly in their hearts.

I wanted to tell him I am here. That I can be his confidant. That whatever it is that pains him I can be his comfort. Yet, the wall he built is too high to climb and too sturdy to break. “Let time and nature destroy it”, I told myself, hoping that it won’t be too late before everything else falls apart.

Into the Other Realm

I have entered another unfamiliar world. The fear has once covered me but as I opened my eyes I have seen a wonderful and interesting world. It may not bring me deep but enough to be explored by an extraordinary person like me.

Intoxicated

The intoxication lingers on me as I woke up this morning. It stings my head and heats my body. Should I get up or stay lay awake? I realized I had my share of rest so I must get up and do the tasks.

Here I am trying to be sober but a bang in my head pulses indefinitely.

Over a cup of Coffee


One cup is what I needed. It has been a month I had not sipped coffee with some friends. Thank God I was temporarily drawn back from life’s boredom and constant grievances.

On Her Two-Thirds Part

“Finish reading the book or you will lose time”, a voice told her. She finished twenty-pages and she decided to lock herself in the room to concentrate more. She has no other time to spare reading so she must finish it, yet she was still on her two-thirds part as she was too sleepy and could not comprehend anymore.

She had always wanted to read the book until she realized that her second mind was occupying the thought of visiting her home and talking something about life.

SECOND MIND. She bumped into these words twenty-one and a half hours ago. “It can do with anything. If you’re in love with someone, you can have that person inside your head. The same thing happens with someone you want to forget about. But the second mind is a tough thing to deal with. It’s at work regardless of whether you want it to be or not...”

“We’re always impassioned about something… Have you had someone you loved stick in your mind? It’s really terrible when that happens. You travel, you try to forget, but your second mind keeps saying: “Oh, he would really love that!” “Oh, if only he were here”

“The second mind was there, barring the entrance, with its repetitive ideas, its unimportant problems, its melodies, it financial problems, its unresolved passions.”

“Don’t fight your thoughts. They are stronger than you are. If you want to rid yourself of them, accept them. Think about what they want you to think of about until they grow tired.”

What's in a name, BRIONI?

The television was awake the whole day with FTv switched. Watching this channel makes people insecure. (count me in) But as they said, it's all about 'mind over matter' so I did (we did) watch it. From the luxurious fashion capital Milan to global fashion shows, we have seen them. Watching the show made me want to imitate the fashion but then again looking back to where I will be walking and where I will be working , I realized it won't fit me. It will be very ironic to dress lavishly and riding jeepneys. Taxis are expensive nowadays and it will make my wallet sick to be riding them everyday. It's better to dress accordingly to my environment hehe.

But then... models from the runway displayed outfits that are very likable. I lovvvvve the styles. Mini-dresses and hippy working outfits of which colors are safe to wear. The shoes are superb too. The name BRIONI at the right-uppermost part of the screen caught us. I then searched for the brand on the internet. The official site is yet to be anticipated. It is an Italian line founded by Nazareno Fonticoli which was named after a Croatian islands of Brijuni (pronounced Brioni). I learned that big men Pierce Brosnan, Samuel L. Jackson and Donald Trump are among their clients. Whew! This is a very luxurious brand I say. This brand is a must to await for.
