aahhh!! looks so enticing doesn't it!? a very, very nice shot taken by heaven. i saw a very cool plug on TV saying that different folks have different reasons for drinking (this kind of stuff). not necessary for getting wasted but rather just for hangin out with your friends. for doing something crazy or just chillin with that special someone (especially now that it's the rainy days).

6 bottles of this baby is enough for me to throw up *shy*... kampai!!

wishing well

we all know about this stuff! you throw in a coin or two then close your eyes and wish with all your might... am actually guilty of this sh*t and no matter how hard i wished, somehow the end-result was still different...

having faith is one thing but actually doing the deed is what counts. you can pray and wish all you want baby but if you ain't gonna do something bout it, chances are you're only waiting for nothin.

success is coupled with hard-earned blood, sweat, tears, perseverance and a pinch of luck... this is not only applicable to our professional life but more so on our personal lives. sometimes, you gotta take that risk, take that chance that might alter your life for good and forever...

A bum's chronicle: destination - hundred islands

Editor’s note: I was supposed to post this right after the escapade but a lot of things happened and I rarely have time for this blogging thing hahah.

A few months back, me and bulos88 went on an excursion just to relax and get away from the hazards and stress brought forth by everything around us. Destination of choice: hundred islands wooohhhhooo!!! This is the first time I went to that place and you can’t even fathom how excited I was. Bulos88 took care of everything – from reservations to directions, from tourist spot to picking up some chicks – he was doing it all and I didn’t have to lift a finger! The coolest part that we both agreed was the snorkeling thing. I really wanted to do the banana boat ride but it was so damn expensive and I think that it was unavailable during our stay there. I won’t go into too much detail as I am somewhat lazy to type hahhaha. Bottom line: great escape, great scenery, cool people, expensive foods (seriously) and great beaches! I wouldn’t mind going there again next year to relieve the experience again.

the day my heaven shed rain

no pictures, no fancy stuff, no talking inanimate objects, no nothin... i just want you guys to spare a prayer for my heaven for she's in dire need of help. just recently, her mom was rushed into the hospital due to a stroke/heart attack and is still in the intensive care unit as i write this piece. it pains me to see this whole thing happening again!

these are good people right here and i know its not right to question things but i oftentimes wonder why is this happening to them!? they proved themselves before that they are as solid as the toughest material out there but fate decided to test them once again.

i've seen these people laugh, i've seen them smile and get frustrated but i hate it when they feel pain and sorrow for there is nothin more i can do for them. i am good with words (that is a given fact) but during these times, sometimes mere words cannot console the hollow body. i know that both their body and soul are depleted and they are just wearing this facade to hide everything. i love these people because they showed me how to live, they showed what the real meaning of life is, they showed me their struggles and what it's like to live in the real world. i am f0rever in debted to them!

the day my heaven shed rain felt like i was being killed from the inside out! i really, really wanna help them. in this state of confusion, i am tryin my best to be heaven's strength, to be her shield from this stuff. i want her to fight and hang-on just like what her mom's doin.

if you can spare a little time, please pray for my heaven, for her mom and for her family. pray for heaven's mom to have a speedy recovery..

heaven-ly smile

I guess I found my inspiration
With just one smile, you take my breath away
So hold me close
And say you'll stay with me now

i've called her so many names: dude, tsong, liezl, toyo... but i finally know now which one will best suit her... as vibrant as anyone and anything that crossed paths with me but as gentle and peaceful as the clouds above... i decided to call her my heaven... no matter how cheesy that might sound...
