Sukob na
Halika na
Sabay tayo
Sa payong ko
Hawak ka
Kapit pa
Umulat bumagyo
Magkasama tayong
Dalawa

Thats our cat lee, the umbrella was the Christmas give away of my former company in the Philippines, its treasured by my mom and still in good working condition up to now. as for Lee, she was named after the lady who my mom believed to have some crush on my father, her name was Linda, thus the cat was named after her.

Beyond the Night

Colorless night sky, creeps to the horizon
Flowers fall prey, unwilling to dark sanctum
Its not time to rest, for its our time to test
If the darkness will invade and destroy our bonds
Don’t throw your life just to save my foolish heart

KUNG AKO NA LANG SANA

(SHAHUL's Wedding Invitation from INDIA)

Heto ka na naman
Kumakatok saking pintuan
Muli naghahanap ng makakausap
At heto naman ako
Nakikinig sa mga kwento mong paulit-ulit lang
Nagtitiis kahit nasasaktan ...

Ewan ko bakit ba hindi ka pa nadadala
Hindi ba't kailan lang nang ika'y iwanan nya
At ewan ko nga sa 'yo
Parang balewala ang puso ko
Ano nga bang meron siya
Na sa akin ay di mo makita ...

Refrain:
Kung ako na lang sana ang iyong minahal
Di ka na muling mag-iisa
Kung ako na lang sana ang iyong minahal
Di ka na muling luluha pa
Di ka na mangangailangan pang humanap ng iba
Narito ang puso ko
Naghihintay lamang sa iyo, oh-oh-oh ...

Heto pa rin ako
Umaasang ang puso mo
Baka sakali pang ito'y magbago
Narito lang ako
Kasama mo buong buhay mo
Ang kulang na lang
Mahalin mo rin akong lubusan ...
(Repeat refrain)

Kung ako na lang sana, oh-oh-oh..
(Repeat refrain)

Kung ako na lang sana ...

I LOVE YOU?

Eh kung kinantahan ka pa? saan ka pa?

Araw:

Been so much busy, dahil independence day ngayon, may promo ang Al Jawal, at may discount ang tawag to the philippines. So ang ginawa ko nilubos ko na ang pagtawag.

Tinawagan ko si Inay for 8 minutes

Tinawagan ko si Dave for 36 minutes

Tinawagan ko si Elmo for 32 minutes

Tinawagan ko si TL for 42 minutes

ang saya saya ng kwentuhan, grabe... yun lang, a day worth remembering! Congratulationsa nga pala kay nanay ko kasi na promote sya as Guidance Counselor... Nagpapalakas kasi sa Principal. wahaha.

TALA

Nung gabi naman nagpunta kami ng batha para mamili. dahil nga hindi naman nagalaw yung pinamili ko last week (dahil sa libreng food galing kay HAPPY) eh 8 Lucky Me Pancit Canton na lamang ang aking binili. Sent money rin para sa kapatid ko, late na yata ang registration ng kanyang motorbike so, kelangan nang bayaran...

We Belong Together

AHHH EWAN

Well pag pinakinggan mo ang iisang kantsa maghapon eh, mukhang may problema ka na. Gusto mong marindi sa kantang iyon at i sink in ang meaning... Nagkataon isang buong araw kong pinakinggan ang WE BELONG TOGETHER ni Mariah, paulit ulit hanggang marindi ako. Mula paggising, habang naliligo, kumakain, nagbibihis, papasok sa trabaho, nangongoleka ng tubig, nag cocomputer, nag aanalysis. natapos lang yun nang umabot ang 5pm na nagdecide ako na tama na... sawa na...

The one who'll join my plight...

The Sky Is Red

The Sky Is Red, originally uploaded by mink_wink.

Dusk is unfloding hiding life's splendor
Darkness engulfs the rainbow colored sceptre
Mighty Knight, I'll be but my voice and sword are weak
And i cannot face the terror looming in

The sadness of my soul's symphony...

“God has given us two hands with fingers which have spaces in between them because GOD knows that each and everyone of us cannot live alone, so maybe HE made our hands that way because we need to search for another hands with fingers with spaces in between to fit between the spaces between our fingers.”


"...see our hands fit, that means were meant to be together.”

SO CLOSE and still so FAR

"We're so close
To reaching that famous happy end
And almost believing this was not pretend
Let's go on dreaming for we know we are
So close
So close
And still so far"

Feel The Darkness Within

Toy and Mik in Black & White, originally uploaded by mink_wink.

After the brightness of the day, the darkness of the night comes inevitably. Darkness is always there, just lurking for the right moment for it to take charge on our lives. I used to be afraid of the dark, as a child it seems that the darkness is somewhat a demon that hunts my dreams, a disturbing phenomenon that leaves me petrified or the curse on the life of a terrified kid. I was afraid to close my eyes on a lightless night; moreover blindness seems to be the most notorious sickness I tend to prevent. It seems that in the darkness the never-ending road will always be continuous. Because of that belief I grew up disturbed, unaware of the magic that darkness can bring.

The music of the night suddenly changed. The horrible nights were transformed to an exciting masquerade, the nightmares were changed to sweet dreams and the lifeless night was beginning to have a move on its own. I realized there were many things that only through darkness, lack of vision, lightless life can bring….

The most wonderful things that we are doing are done in the darkness.

Adoring the beauty of a thousand fireflies hovering over the mango tree can only be done during the darkness of the night.

The amusement that the billion stars of the night can bring that jewels a moonless night.

The terrible beauty of the burning fireworks.

The most intimate kiss are only felt when our eyes are closed. In the darkness we linger the sensation that our locked lips produce.

The dreams are only realized when we are in our slumber, on a solitude night.

The loveliest and emotional lines of a song are only delivered correctly when the eyes are closed, for in the darkness we can find the correct feelings that are necessary for the rendition.

Sleeping is done during the darkness of the night, the correct way to rejuvenate and refresh our body.

Only on silence of the darkness we can find peace.

Have you ever imagined your loved one? The best way to imagine, close your eyes feel the darkness, the calmness of the night.

Making love in the most intimate manner is only done on darkness.

Darkness is a friend especially for a loner like me.

Reasons to Smile

Reasons to Smile, originally uploaded by mink_wink.

I realized that there are so much reasons in my life to make me smile...

My family who loves me so much
My friends, though few, who are always there for me when im down
The birds happily chirping at 6am in the morning
The sunlight that peeks inside my room
The taste of noodles and sardines which i missed so much
Diane who guards the treasures inside my cabinet
The blog, which accounts my melodramatic and pompous moments
The nice text messages, personal or forwarded, that makes my heart jump
My old laptop that holds hidden files, for my eyes only
My guardian angel who wakes me up at 2am
And most importantly to God, for the life HE gave me, Thank you

A Candle for a dead Pope

a candles light, three matchsticks, originally uploaded by mink_wink.

(Photo Taken: April 2 2005)

"Let me go to the house of the Father", was Pope John Paul's last words before his death at the age of 84...

It was a great delight and comfort to find this special photo which was taken almost 3 years ago... This photo commemorates my grief and sadness to the death of the Pope.

What bothers me, is that photo, shows two matchsticks joining together while a third one is separated from the two and away from the light. obviously i have lit the candle using a matchstick, i just cant figure out why there were three of them...

When i saw the picture while browsing my files, i was thinking about me being always the second in almost everything especially in the field called LOVE. I hope im wrong, i think i found him already...

Sunburn

Sunburn, originally uploaded by mink_wink.

a friend once told me that you can never be human if you havent been burned...
The burn that the crazy sun has done to your skin
The burn that desire has given you
The burn that can wipe your material things
The burn that can destroy your life
The burn that makes you go on with life
The burn that gives you hope and the warmth to stay breathing
The burn that is the only way to reach the dreams so high
The burn that makes your mind sharper and your heart lovelier
The burn that you do for the one you love, the reason you sacrifice yourself and let the fire burn your flesh just to protect and spare him from the hurt...

(Photo Taken on November 1, at the cemetery - model was my niece Phoebe...)

The Search for the Lost Pearl

Paradusdos, originally uploaded by mink_wink.

Obviously the photo header is not a picture of pearls…

Those are for the PARADUSDOS that Nanay cooked for me during my vacation.

But precious gems can take the form of anything that gives us happiness, fulfillment and contentment from within
They are people that we cherish, love and care
They are safe inside the jewel box called HOME
They are the friends we wanted to share our life with.
The precious someone, the way you see them sparkle though miles away from you,
They are mementos that provide sweet memories of the past.
Gems can be found on the music we wanna hear every time we cry, that will give back the grin on our faces.
Sometimes they are also on places we wanted to be, only hidden.
Sometimes they take the form of our favorite food, on the lines of our favorite poem or the dialogue of our favorite movie.
Though some of the gems around us are fancy, we should be cautious on identifying them. They are everywhere but amongst the fancy, lies the most coveted pearl of all, just waiting to be discovered.
Join me on the search for the lost pearl of my life…

Lets search one ocean at a time.

A real pearl: My Nanay’s Paradusdos…
