who wants growth pills?


GROWTH PILLS

they get your attention by asking you: tired of being unable to reach high places? here's our solution for you!
showing videos of short people tiptoeing to reach files and things on high places.
they show their product and tell the people that it is the most effective growth pill on sale..
they flash testimonials of people who tried their product and grew to the height they were dreaming of, in just a few duration use of the product.
they show you pictures of the before height and after height, then they show videos of people reaching the used to be unreachable to them..
after flashing all these videos and testimonials, they will now sell the product by showing the price, and the hotline number of the tv shopping network. and the famous, IF YOU CALL WITHIN THE NEXT 10 MINUTES, THEY WILL CUT OFF A THOUSAND PESOS FROM THE PRICE OF YOUR PRODUCT!

this time, this is about you.


I've never held feelings for this long.
it's been months since I've cried hard because of feeling alone.
it's been months since I felt really alone.
it's been months since I've told someone about you.
never talked about you since then.
never tried to talked about you again since then.

no one knows how heavy it feels.
i wanted no one to know because i never thought it would come to this.
a heavy feeling. the feeling of distance. the feeling that I am out of place.
the feeling of being left behind.

since then, I've felt I've been chasing people.
chasing everyone. trying to tie everyone beside me so they would never leave like you did and I would never feel alone. the chasing feeling never stopped. or so i thought.
I stopped chasing. I stopped. I just stopped and let things be.

I stopped so I could what you wanted me to do. to let things be. to let you be.
and I did. I wandered away without knowing. now I'm thinking, maybe I wandered too far, or maybe it took you so long.

I don't know what to say.. I don't know what to do.. I don't know how to act in front of you..
now, the heavy feeling has come back again.. but It's not because of the same feelings.. but because of the feeling that I already lost you..

i remembered when we used to be seatmates in ELCIRAN,

there comes a time when i don't know what to say
but keep this promise, i'm always here to stay..

argh.


i don't know why but i feel strange. hmmm.
no, i know why i feel strange.
i really do. its because of you. i don't know why i'm blogging about you.
maybe, because i don't have the courage to tell anyone. maybe, because i'm
used to not telling anyone about you. grrrr. is this bitterness?

we used to write each other..
we used to see each other a lot..
we used to go to the movies..
we used to window shop..
we used to talk for hours about anything under the sun..
we used to sleep over each other's houses..
we used to have silly childish and grown up girl bonding times..
we used to be inseparable..
we used to look out for each other..
and now, we just used to be..

i hate it when i said that nothing should change, then everything just changed. :(

just let go.


just let go of the past.
so today won't suffer.
and the future will be better.

just let go.

trying to find stars.


I'm just here outside. trying to find stars.
but I think the mosquitoes have better sight than me.
they easily find me and then bite me to their satisfaction.

well, I'm back to trying to find stars tonight. they seem to be busy travelling.
because i can't seem to find one right now. I'm trying to find some light. even though there are lights everywhere.

the light from our house, the light coming from the windows of every house nearby. Lights from the passing vehicles. cars, jeeps, tricycless, motorcycles, trucks. lights from the lamp posts. there are lights every where. but I seem to be looking for some other kind of light.

*sigh*

I want to see some light from above. (after I typed this line, there was lightning. i am shocked. and in awe.)

maybe I won't ask for other lights. haha!

enough blog for tonight.

ciao!

Classify.


BOOKS. I used to read a lot when i was younger. and I'm trying to revive my passion in reading. I've been reading and buying a lot of books lately. From BOOKSALE.

I classify the books i read.

Before, I have a smaller room. And it amazing how so many people could fit in that little amount of space it has. It has a hanging bookshelf at the foot of my bed. Everyday I wake up, and literally see books. They are the first thing I see every morning. haha! I have lots of books. but not all types of books. Let me try to enumerate the books.

1. Encyclopedias - These where the first ones I used to read.
a. Medical Encyclopedias - These are my favorites. I badly want to be a doctor. But here I am an engineering student. haha!
b. A-Z Encyclopedias - The usual encyclopedias filled with lots of information. My favorite is the H encycclopedia. why? it has Hologram. haha!

2. School books - from elementary to High school. But a lot are disposed now. I should have kept them and donated them to schools.

3. Magazines - the only magazine I have is National Geographic. I never bought fashion magazines or the likes.

4. Digests - Yes. I am a Reader's Digest Subscriber. My favorite. hehe :D

5. Pocket Books/ Novels - not the Pinoy version of pocket books. haha! I am starting to collect books now. They're good investments. For me. :D

6. Visual Books - Children's books with lots of pictures and explanations of the things around us.

7. Dictionaries - I have the big dictionaries. The heavy dictionaries. Small ones. and English - Tagalog Dictionary. haha!

there. I don't have a lot. but i think they are many. hehe. :D
I have to design a new bookshelf to fit all the books :D

Commute or Drive

There are two ways of going to De La Salle Canlubang, commuting and driving your own car, but which is better? There are a lot of pros and cons in both ways. I used to commute during my first years in college. Today, commuting means you are a hundred pesos richer for a day compared to driving. From my house, I would only need at least P40 – P58 one-way, and P80 – 98 two-way. It is easier to compute the cost of computing than driving. I approximated the distance of my home and school and computed the cost of gas I have to burn, I would need at least P100 for a one-way trip. Gassing up your tank cut really cut down your allowance for a week. That is one point for commuting.

Travel time is another factor you have to consider in transportation. Travel time is dependent on daily traffic situations. Commuting means you have to take several rides in order to get to your destination. Commuting means it would take 45 minutes to 1 hour and a half before I get to school. While in driving, I would only take 30 to 45 minutes to get to school. That is one point for driving.

Driving and commuting are tied, each with one good point. There is another factor you have to consider to tell which is really better. It is the preparation before going to school. This is one big factor, especially for students. Commuting means I have to wake up extra early so I can avoid traffic during rush hour and not get late in my first subject. Commuting also means I have to expect the unexpected because so many unexpected events can happen in the range of 45 minutes to 1 and a half hour travel. Even if you have been a long time commuter, you really cannot approximate time and control traffic. In addition to that, you can take the free black powder from smoke belchers in front of the tricycle you are rding and come to school as if you didn’t take a shower for 3 days. Driving, on the other hand means, I get to wake up early enough, just to prepare myself and drive my car and take my best route to school without rushing and running in the corridor and still I won’t get late and come as fresh as I can be. That is another point for driving. So if you ask me, driving is better than commuting, because i would spend that extra money than to waste my time and effort in preparing myself.

internet

sa wakas! may net na ulit..

How To Treat Your Colds

Colds are very common especially with the kind of weather we have. I have colds so I want to treat it as soon as I can.
They say colds cannot be cured because they are viruses. They have to take their course once they enter your body. It takes a few careful days before you are back to being the normal and not ngo-ngo sounding person.

These are a few steps I take EVERYDAY in order to treat my colds while they are present.

First, once you are infested by the ever-present cold virus, you will feel very weak. Your head will feel like a basketball, heavy and floating. Your nose will feel itchy and you will have a hard time breathing. Runny nose is expected and a lot of nose blowing and sneezing is present. Sneezing and blowing your nose spreads virus into your hands. Therefore, you must be extra careful of your hygiene and devote extra time in frequently washing your hands. Not only washing, but thoroughly washing your hands with soap. Not only will this give you a better hygiene, but also a good habit.

Second, you have to take your food and drink in moderation. You must prevent drinking of cold beverages and milk and juices, because they will not help you feel better. Drinking cold beverages may feel good at first, BUT, believe me, the after effects will make you so miserable you'd want to stop drinking at all. Why? It made your colds worse, that's why. In contrary, you must drink plenty of water. if possible, drink gallons and gallons of water every time because it will help you keep hydrated and reduce the possibility of having soar throats and it helps you flush away the virus. How? You tend to go to the bathroom to pee because of the gallons of water you have taken.

Third, make sure that you take chicken and spicy soup and spicy food. This will help you clear your nasal passages so wouldn't have a hard time breathing. In addition, chicken soup helps to slow down cells that cause cold symptoms. This is my favorite part of treating colds because they are like cheap nebulizers, they help me breathe easier even though it would only last for a few minutes.

Fourth, and the most important step of the day, take a good rest. A good rest is sleeping early in a dimly lit room, lying in a very comfortable bed with very good airconditioning. This will help you recharge your body to fight away the virus. having a good night sleep will also give you a lighter head when you wake up the next morning.

Doing this every day would make you feel the difference day after day.
You better not take away any step because you wouldn't want to feel worse every waking day.

So remember, be hygienic, drink lots of water, eat spicy food and chicken soup, and take a good rest.

Used to Listening, not Hearing


I am used to listening and not hearing.

i believe i have evolved from one type or have been every type of listener there is.

First, the static listener. I can recall being a static listener.
I become static when I am talking to someone I don't really like or he/ she is talking nonsense. So I just let them talk and finish up so I can say bye and get as far away as I can from them.

Second, the monotonous feedback giver. haha!
aaahhhhh....
okaaaayyyy...
uhhhuhhh...
hmmmmm..
Those were my usual responses when I am usually talking to friends on the phone. Specially when they are telling stories about how their day went, or about anything. haha! but now, I learned how to react and say something relevant to what they are saying.

Third, the overly expressive listener. I become the overly expressive whenever I am excited or hyper or we are talking about something we are interested in. the exaggerated lumalaki yung mata at tumataas yung boses kapag nagreact dahil sa sobrang excitement. haha!

Fourth, the reader/writer type of listener. I become this type of listener whenever I am travelling. I usually read while we are travelling, when they talk to me, i rarely look at them straight because I am so into reading.

Fifth, the eye avoider listener. I am the fifth one, in classes. hahaha! I usually avoid the teacher's eye so they won't ask me to recite or answer anything. Sometimes, when I am not in the mood to talk or I don't like the one I'm talking to, I avoid eye contact.

Another one is the thought completing listener. I am not really a thought completing listener, i am more of a thought guessing listener. I try to guess where they are going at. Most of the time, i guessed right. haha!

The waiting listener, I used to be the waiting listener, because I don't want to interrupt someone while they are talking specially when they are at their peak of the story. I usually wait so I can react to what they are currently saying, but I end up reacting at the end of their story and forgetting about the things I wanted to say in between. hahaha!

The last, the pre-occupied listener. Lately, I have been a pre-occupied listener. I am always pre-occupied about so many things. I hate being pre-occupied because i neglect listnening carefully and tend to ask them to repeat what they are saying. I hope I don't offend them, but I know I am fairly offending them, because it shows that my mind is floating around thinking about something else. *sigh*

I used to be a good listener, but I don't really know now if I still am a good listener.
I hope to remain a good listener.

my right side of the bed :)


4:00am...
5:00am..

Awakened by the sound of my cellphone. Hearing it's loud sound, a razor running through the head of my brother, chopping of his hair until it is no longer visible. I opened my eyes, seeing it's still dark, I lazily, grabbed and pressed snooze and slept again for a few minutes. Or maybe several minutes, until I can see the rays of the sun coming through my window. I always wake up on my right side of the bed.

What is my right side of the bed?
Literally, the right side of my bed is a blank leche flan-ish-yellow wall. Seeing the blank yellow walls, feeling my pillows, under my head, another one between my thighs and another one that I hug really tight, I knew I was awake and saw the sunlight that tells me it's already 530am. I stretch a little bit, bury my face under the blanket and feel my bed for the last time until I jump out of bed and sit at the foot of it. I like sitting at the food of my bed. Right at the foot of my bed is my window. I can hear my aunt and our neighbor talking and laughing, at the bakod where we call it bakod-online. I shouted, "online nanaman kayo. ang aga mag-online eh." then laughed out loud. :)

my other right side of the bed is, when I sit near my window, and feel the heat of the sun touching my face. And when I peak and lean outside my window, you will see the mountain and Laguna Bay sparkling at its foot and feel the rays of the sun, hearing the early honking sounds of the jeepneys and cars passing by, birds chirping cheerfully and smell freshly baked pandesal from our neighboorhood panaderia. Then, I start to say my thankful morning prayer.

That's me, waking up at the right side of my bed. :)
How about you?

guess what? emotions.

......
Walking in a hot summer day is like walking on the deserts in Middle East. Thirsty. It was all I could feel right at that moment. My body was slowly dying and started to feel numb, until I saw McDonald's. I hurriedly ordered a Coke Float over the counter. As soon as I sipped my drink, every bit of me felt the soothing coolness of my drink. From head to foot, I felt that every bit of me was filled with energy. Every part of me rejoiced. At last, my thirst is quenched and I am alive again.
......
As I entered the room, excitement filled my heart. Seeing all those people in different cubicles, looking smart and sophisticated, I suddenly visualized myself in their position. Working with them, looking smart and busy, applying all my skills and so. Designing, creating, editing, suggesting, meetings, and all engineering and business stuff I have imagined. Then, I was back to reality, when I started looking at my resume.
......
My heart is thumping. I can hear and feel it while I'm breathing. Goosebumps run through my body as if someone spilled a glass of ice cold water on my back. I started writing and tremor was found in my handwriting. Then I was asked to state my message, I stuttered.
......
Heat was getting into my nerves, it was so irritating. Then I saw a billboard, and I started smiling. I was smiling while I was walking and thinking, then suddenly I felt gloomy. I remembered something bad. Then I saw a friend, I started smiling again.
......
My facial expression changed every second while I was thinking. Looking at my exam questionnaire, jumbling x, and y, and z on my mind, negative and positive integers floating around my head and i just couldn't find the right formula to solve this equation. Thinking, should I use the quadratic formula or should i just use plain algebra? Can somebody help me?

my first sad farewell


i hate early flights. why? it means i would have to start the day without him. i like evening flights better. why? because i can spend the day first before he goes.

i was bidding goodbye. he looked at me with so much love not even showing disappointment.
i looked backed at him with so much guilt and shame for myself and couldn't show any love at all.

i couldn't say i love him straight to the face. i wish i had. i really wish.
after he left, i called him on his phone. told him to take care, and told him i love him.

then started crying myself to sleep.

this was my first sad farewell to my dad who just left this morning.
i miss my dad. i love my dad.
i wished he stayed longer so we can be able to celebrate father's day.
i miss my dad. i love my dad.
