Let the light pierce through the darkness Close all old accounts, turn a new leaf Re-learn that old lesson of friendship Kill nor be killed, settle for lessening Amidst us of this fossilized hatred
Transient Dreams
glimpses of life… silence and chaos; laughter and tears…
Perhaps that time has not come yet when our, Gods would listen to the beats in our hearts, peace and happiness spread their glow, perhaps we would have to force Mother Time?.
The Earth Moved
There was an earthquake! I got all dizzy watching my desk sway from side to side. LOL. I remember the last time I “felt” an earthquake… I was having lunch at the cafeteria (12th floor) in the School of Design and Arts building (Benilde). I thought the building was going to implode.
“Hindi lungkot o takot ang mahirap sa pag-iisa, kundi ang pagtanggap na sa bilyon-bilyong tao sa mundo, wala man lang nakipaglaban upang makasama ka.” ~Bob Ong
Rough translation:
“It’s not sadness or fear that makes being alone (single?) hard, it’s the fact that among the billions of people in the world, not even one fought (made an effort?) to be with you.”
I was supposed to go out with my college friends the other night but it rained so hard.
I was watching the rain pour down when my sister got home. I went downstairs to keep her company while she had dinner then decided she wanted to have dinner too — and she wouldn’t eat unless I ate too so I did..very slowly. Anyway, in line with Jess’s latest post:
Chestnut: “Keep eating, Your Royal Highness, so you won’t starve on your way home.”
That made everyone (my sister Leslee, my uncle Mao, and our housekeeper Linda) laugh.
If the rain had let up, I would’ve still gone out but I fell asleep while waiting.
I hope ’s not too mad at me.
My sister has given me a one-month deadline to find a job — the same thing I did when she started job hunting. I asked her, “What if I don’t find a job after a month?” She said, “We’ll keep extending for 15 days at a time until you do!” LOL.
I’ve been moody all week — partly because I’m missing and partly because I’m so anxious about getting a job. I need to get a job as soon as possible.
My family has been really nice. They’ve been keeping me busy — I think they’re worried that I might get depressed. The first couple of days after left, my mom took me everywhere she went. LOL. I drew the line at going to the car repair service. There was no way I’d just sit there, waiting.
Then every night, when my sister comes home, we watch a movie or two.
But I still get lonely.
Today was pretty fun though. My siblings and I watched the first De La Salle Green Archers game of the UAAP, Season 71 on TV. But sadly, we lost.
I’m going to watch the Green Archers’ second game — versus the FEU Tamaraws — next Saturday with my cousin . hehe. I told him we’d have to stay at the La Salle side or I wouldn’t go — he studies at FEU.
Ack… This post is all over the place. I’m too sleepy to concentrate.
What I really want to do right now is to go downstairs and eat ice cream. My sister bought me a tub of Choco Chip Cookie Dough this afternoon. YUM!
But I’m really sleepy… *BIG YAWN* so I’m just going to crawl under the covers and sleep. Good night everyone!
We’re going to watch Pathology tomorrow — Harvard Medical School graduate Dr. Ted Grey arrives at one of the nations most prestigious Pathology programs and is quickly noticed by the program’s privileged and elite band of pathology interns who invite him into their crowd. It is also here, where he is introduced to Dr. Jake Gallo, who brings him to a secluded wing, where he and four other indulge in their after-hours, extra-curricular activities…finding ways to commit the perfect murder!

Wow, there was an earthquake?! I didn’t hear about that! But yeah, I’ve felt an earthquake before, and I got dizzy too…
Ooh, sorry to hear about all the rain… =(
LOL about the deadline! Hmm… I believe it’s been a month since I’ve applied for my first job. Haha.
Anyways, aww, sorry to hear that you’ve been moody… =( I hope you’re feeling a bit better now…
wow there was really an earthquakkeee. that is scarrrryyy
Yeah! I took note of the time: 8.10PM yesterday. LOL. But srsly, the computer I was working on was rocking like crazy.
And now they’re saying there’s another one on the 18th.
I’ve never felt an earthquake. I do think I’m lucky.
Rain makes me sleepy unless there’s lightening. I love thunder though. It’s been raining a lot in Ohio lately.
Usually rain cheers me up but lately it’s a debbie downer.
Aww, -hugs- I’m sorry you’re lonely. I have no idea how you seem to handle it so well. It’s so admirable. The comment you left on my site about my girlfriend was amazingly comforting and made me smile. Thanks for that.
Well that’s a great incentive to slack off you know. I was always like that: oh I still have x years of uni left… I have time to get a job.
In the end I did get a job (course my occupational field has most positions here)… I’m not sure if all the procrastination was so worth it or not.
P.S. Something here keeps freezing my browser, you might want to look into that.
Oh my! I gotta say I’m quite happy I live in a place with no threat from Earthquakes. If that had happened to be I would have been terrified! I’d probably be in constant paranoid mode. <.<
Good luck with the job hunting! Try not to feel too bad about not having a job right now. Think about all the things you can do in your free time instead.
That quote of Bob’s is so true…
I hope you’re able to find a job.
Cookie Dough ice-cream sounds good! I’m going to go get some ice-cream right now.
I’d suggest you just get on with your daily tasks and try to find a job. That way you distract yourself from thinking about Jim too much and getting depressed about him not being there..
It’s never good to be that dependant on someone that it makes you depressed when they’re away.
That earthquake sounds scary. I only experienced one (minor) earthquake and I was shaking in my bed at the time (it was the middle of the night). Hope all is OK though, and nothing got damaged from it.
