"DOBBY"-ish

Hey guys! The site has moved! Go to Aqua :: The Second Time Around for latest posts... Pero... under construction pa siya... ok??

October 24, 2004 - Sunday Afternoon

Ok... I'm going to update na, because homework_**** said so... hahaha! No, it's not that, I just felt like it has been a long time since I've posted something here. Anyway, this weekend, like last week, was another pathway to heLL!! It doesn't matter anyway...

This week... exam results were given. I did weLL but I could've done better. Anyway, it's alright, but there's this feeling of Regret. 

I have nothing much to say today. I don't know why. I have been staring at the class pictures for days now. I've been acting really weird. Maybe because of this "hell"-ish weekend... Anyway, doesn't really matter as long as I can go to schooL and have a good look at Vary.

Oh wait, last Friday, Sr. Ayende didn't show up at class. Let's not focus on that. There was no English cLass so we had the freedom, then, to do whatever we want, just as long as we don't make too much noise. I am so thankfuL to Agnetha! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! That time, I had the longest look at Vary during class (specifically, a VaLEd cLass).

Last Thursday (1021), was the last day that I could cram that TechPrep Research Paper ek-ek... I hated that, not for the reason that I hate TechPrep, but for the reason that it was not yet our turn to report. We, Mittsu, Karina and I, were supposed to report and finish the Tech Research on the last two meetings of the quarter. But we, Garnet and I, reported 2 meetings in advance. Oh weLL, can't blame Sr. ViLLavert. Also can't bLame Mrs. Lumanta. Anyway, I stayed up late to finish that report. I had to sleep at 10:30, wake up at 12 mn and sleep again at 2:30. I also received the worst bonus ever! My father scoLded me for staying up late that night. Sometimes, can't understand people. They nag you if you don't study weLL, yet they also nag, if you overdo it. What do they want???!! Anyway, parents are like that, just gotta understand them. 

Last Tuesday (1019), Art classes have started already. Yey! No drafting. I miss drafting, really, because in Art, do what you want. There are no instructions at all, except for the material requirements. There was no EarthSci last Tuesday, so we were free during the last period. Vary's last period is Art. I passed by their class that day and saw him answering Sir Luy's question. Gosh! I hated Sr. Luy that moment! Why? Because he caLLed Vary, "Mr. Four-Eyes". Haaaa!! Yep, I agree that he's four-eyed... I don't deny that because it's reaLLy obvious. But he could've said another term like, "Mr. Active-in-cLass" or "Mr. Near Me" ('coz he was near Sr. Luy that time). For me, personaLLy, maybe he should've called him "Mr. Dark" or "Mr. SiLent". Anyway, can't blame Sr. Luy, he's reaLLy that kind of joker... hehe...

Oh weLL, I figured out that I have something to say, anyway. 

I'LL go now... Bye...

To Ms. G*** na cute... haha Agnetha! Updated na... ok? Hehhe...

Bye! 

October 18, 2004 - Monday Night

Hi! HeLLo! How are you? I'm Fine, thanks you. Hahahaha!! I'm just feeling a bit *confused* over Vary. Take a look at the image below...

Vary's answer in one of the surveys found all over Friendster's Bulletin Board.

What do you think? There are two interpretations in my mind right now. One is: "Oh yeah, I know who that is." Another is that: "It's as if it's going to happen to me." The second one sounded that he's disappointed and hopeless. By the look of it, he looks like a dying man on his death bed. GOD FORBID! The first interpretation sounded too arrogant!!! I wish that it wasn't me he was thinking about when he was answering that question. Honestly, when I first read this answer, the first interpretation came to my mind. That was why, for maybe 5 minutes, I was babbling here that he's so yabang, he's so yabang, epal niya. Well, I might sound weird especially if you have seen me, but he's not that guapo to be giving that kind of answer. Heehee... but he's still guapo. Oh yeah! Now I truly agree that a picture says a thousand words. 

Anyway, I took some *tests* a few days ago. Actually, I just did one. *See how the pluraL form works?* I did it for fun and also for... uhm, never mind.

You're the loving smile,the one that is entirely
devoted to others,especially that one
person.You really can't get them out of your
head,but then,you don't really want to.

What Kind of Smile are You?

Umaygash! Sr. Ayende's gonna check my site out 3 hours from now. I stiLL have homework. One last reminder! Sr. Ayende, please be generous! Heehehe... TAKE CARE! Oh yes, check out the Links on the right side.

I'll go now! Bye!

October 15, 2004 - Friday Night

HeLLo!!! I feeL so bad! I didn't get to go to school today. I didn't get to cheer for the games and also for Vary. On the other hand, it's alright because there was no "clean-up" session for me. Hehehe... Anyway, I made two poems for the past few days. The first one is entitled TARSIER. I just felt like writing a lousy poem with "tarsier" on it. I didn't expect it to be good. Anyway, it's corny.

Tarsier -10112004-

The moon tonight, so bright indeed,
With me lying, thinking of you, for real.
You, so tender, so sweet, so caring,
You soar in the heavens, you fly with thy wings.

Oh hear me, Tarsier, I miss you so.
Since I lost you, no warmth has my soul,
For you gave my life its purpose
You gave its direction and the right to choose.

Let me be like you, mighty Tarsier,
Help me fly, soar and dream without fear.
For no one else could make me believe, 
That there's someone more special than you, my Tarsier.

P.S. See how corny it is?

Anyway, the second poem is entitled EVIL DESIRES. Okay, I know what you're thinking but I assure you, it's not what it is. Read on to find out.

Evil Desires -10152004-

Yesterday, the devil came to me,
He showed me the riches this world can give,
Then, he made me rule his kingdom
Until the dreary eve.

I sold my soul to the devil,
In exchange for all the power, the fame and evil.
He gave me those, but I wasn't free anymore,
To love and do the things that I adore.

His temptations I couldn't resist.
The love exists no more.
It was then that I realized what a fool I was,
For this life wasn't what I wanted all along.

P.S. Was this an improvement? 

I have to make a confession and humble myself. Just a while ago, I was checking my Friendster account and reading on some of the bulletin posts. Ms. K (any idea, S4?) just posted something that I really have to thank to. I really forgot about the Tech Prep portfolio!!! Thanks Ms. K!! I'm going to start on it tomorrow, after I have arrived home from the hospital for check-up. My mother said that she's "praning" about dengue. Oooh! Bad choice of words. Someone posted something in my guest book, I wonder who that person might be. She gave an email add like this panget_ako@dobby.com Waah!!! It's not nice, the e-add I mean, but I like the comment. It's humorous. Hehehe...

Anyway, I'll stop now, got to have some rest.  

October 14, 2004 - Thursday Night

HeLLo! It's been 3 days since I posted something . Anyway, this day was the worst day ever. Why? Here are the reasons.

1. I woke up with my body aching.
2. Kuya Cris texted me that he's gonna be late.
3. I had no internet prepaid. WeLL, now I do.
4. My head was aching the whole day.
5. I had high fever. Damn!
6. I got to practice serving the volleyball. Many went in. Then because of that damn fever and super headache, I wasn't able to participate in the game. 
7. Green team will never see the light of the Finals.
8. I'm not feeling well. Maybe I cannot go to school tomorrow. Oh man! No VARY.

Anyway, like what I have said, I had fever. So high that it caused me to sleep while the games are happening. So high that I wasn't able to cheer for our team and also for VARY's. Yesterday, Agnetha made a cheer for VARY. It goes this way:

T-A-T-A-R
T-A-R-S-I-E-R
Go Vary, yeah yeah, Go Vary.

Isn't it great? Oh weLL, Agnetha and Cris told me something at school. Yesterday, they heard some second year students, one was Agnetha's friend, talking. They were saying that VARY was a "butete" Oh man! I couldn't say what was actually said because I am thinking of my "safety". Hehehe. Yesterday was the last day of my Grandpa's wake. He was cremated today at 8 am. Oh, mind you, when my head ached, I felt like I was burning. Maybe, Daddy just wanted to be remembered. 

Yesterday, at the wake, I saw three beautiful poems on some of the Mass cards. One of them was really my favorite. It's entitled "I'm Free"

I'm Free

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free
I'm following the path God laid for me.
I took His hand when I heard him call;
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way;
I found that place at the close of day.
If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared a laugh, a kiss;
Ah yes, these things, I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I savored much;
Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.
Perhaps my time seems all to brief;
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free.

For more sad poems, check out http://www.geocities.com/Petsburgh/7848/bridgepoem.html Though most of the poems are about pets who died, it sure is fun reading them.

Anyway, Ate Kxia shared to me a song. YeLLowcard sang it. It's entitled "View From Heaven". This isn't a sad melodious song. It's more of punk with a mix of sadness.

View From Heaven -YeLLowcard-

I'm just so tired
wont you sing me to sleep
and fly through my dreams
so I can hitch a ride with you tonight
and get away from this place
have a new name and face
I just ain't the same without you in my life
late night drives, all alone in my car
I can't help but start
singing lines from all our favorite songs
and melodies in the air
singin life just ain't fair
sometimes I still just can't believe you're gone

and I'm sure the view from heaven
beats the hell out of mine here
and if we all believe in heaven,
maybe we'll make it through one more year
down here

feel your fire,
when its cold in my heart
and things sorta start
remindin' me of my last night with you
i only need one more day
just one more chance to say
i wish that i had gone up with you too

and i'm sure the view from heaven
beats the hell out of mine here
and if we all believe in heaven
maybe we'll make it through one more year
down here
you wont be comin' back
and i didn't get to say goodbye (goodbye)
i really wish i got to say goodbye

and im sure the view from heaven
beats the hell out of mine here
and if we all believe in heaven
maybe we'll make it through one more year
i hope that all is well in heaven
cuz its all shot to hell down here
i hope that i find you in heaven
cuz i'm so...
lost without you down here

you wont be coming back
and i didn't get to say goodbye (goodbye)
i really wish i got to say gooooodbye

Nice lyrics, eh? Yup, I agree! Ok, I'll go now. Bye!

October 10, 2004 - Sunday Morning

Wheew! This posting thing is kinda obsessing. Anyway, yesterday wasn't a good day though. I was forced to write 2 poems because of the take-home English LT. I wrote a poem for my grandfather... 'cause you see... weLL, another cycle of life will be ending. Well, I know who to blame. It's not God but someone else. Maybe I could post the poem here. After all, I would still pass it tomorrow.

To God, For Daddy -10092004-

God, I pray, keep my Daddy safe,
Restore his good health, ease his pain
And if it shall be true, O glorious days!
Never shall I seek for anything else.
Drive my fears away, leave him near me.
For I miss him so much, I long to hold him.
All were great when he was still here to laugh,
To care, enlighten and to love.
Hear my prayers, while the birds still sing,
Early at dawn, then, I shall see,
Remarkable Daddy smiling at me.

This is an acrostic. My problem is that how can I make it concrete? What object shall I use?

Anyway, today is October 10, 2004. Translation: 10/10/2004. Erase the slash between 10/10. It would make 1010. Convert it to roman numerals, then you shall get MX. Isn't it great?!?! MX, for those who know, sssh! 

Tomorrow, start of the INTRAMS! Umaygash! I'm worried, that I can't be of any help to our team. I wish, volleyball wouldn't coincide with soccer. Please oh please! It would be nice to watch the green team play with the ____ ____ team, right? hahaha! 

Anyway, I can't stay happy now. Bye!

October 9, 2004 - Saturday Afternoon

Hey! What a nice afternoon we have. I was busy surfing the internet just a few minutes ago when I saw images of TARSIERS. Then, I remembered AngeL, Agnetha, Lady and Cris... insulting Variable. But then, I realized, it wasn't really an insult (at least for me) because I saw how cute tarsiers were. Thanks guys! Let me share something interesting about them to you. I got this from an informative website.

TARSIERS

Tarsiers' bodies are 8.5-16cm long, their tails are 13.5-27.5cm long, and they weigh 80-165g. They live up to 8-13.5 years. (aww..) Tarsiers are found only in Southeast Asia including islands. In Southeast Asia, they can be found leaping through dense vegetation, usually in lowland rainforest, secondary forests and mangroves. But some like the Western tarsier can be found in cultivated lands and even gardens.

Tarsiers come from the Tarsiidae Family. There are 3 (some say 4-5) species of tarsier. 

Philippines tarsiers (Tarsius syrichta) are most common in Mindanao, southeastern Philippines and the islands nearby, but they are also found in Sumatra and Sulawesi.
Western/Bornean/Horsfield's tarsier (T. bancanus) can be found in Borneo, Sumatra and Banka
Spectral/Celebes/Sulawesi tarsier (T. spectrum) are found in Sulawesi and nearby Great Sangihe, Peleng and Selajar. It developed fewer adaptations, e.g., it lacks adhesive toes. 
Pygmy Tarsier (T. pumilus) in central Sulawesi; and
Diana's Tarsier (T. dianae)

Fossils suggest tarsiers ranged throughout Asia, Europe and the Americas.

They have very large eyes, about 1.6cm. Each eye is bigger than the entire brain and larger than the stomach. Imagine that? So much so that they cannot move their eyes within the sockets. Instead, they special modifications to their neck vertebrae allowing them to rotate their heads nearly 360 degrees, unbelievable! But, they do not have a reflective layer behind the eyes (tapetum) unlike most nocturnal animals. They have excellent hearing, using their large funnel-like ears which are hairless, and thin and membranous. They can furl and unfurl their ears. Heehee Ü

Their hind legs are disproportionately long, almost twice the body length. In fact, they are named for their special elongated ankle (tarsal) bones, in which the tibia and fibula are fused in the lower portions and thus act as shock absorbers.

Tarsiers are pure carnivores which is unique among primates. They eat mainly insects (cockroaches and crickets) (eeww) but also hunt and kill small vertebrates. They even kill venomous snakes, birds larger than themselves (roosting birds are particularly at risk), scorpions and bats. Those living in mangroves also hunt small fish and crabs. Tarsiers are voracious and eat up to 10% of their body weight each day. They often eat all parts of the prey including feathers, beaks, feet, exoskeleton. *They eat neatly, huh?*

 Tarsiers drink regularly, licking water off vegetation and even going to the ground to lap from a pool or stream. Tarsiers need to be near a source of open water.

The Iban people of Borneo believe the tarsier's head could come off. Locals also believe it if they said the tarsier's name out loud, they would be haunted by ghosts.

If you want to know more visit http://www.szgdocent.org/pp/p-tarsir.htm

You see, tarsiers are very interesting! That's why I love them! Hahaha!! Actually, read between the lines. I'll leave it for you to figure it out, but I'm sure you'd easily get it, right? Anyway, nuf-said about tarsiers.

It's not really a nice day though. My grandfather is in the hospital and his condition is worsening. Anyway, pray, it works.

I'll go now. Bye! 

October 8, 2004 - Friday Night

HeLLo! This is my first time to post here in my "blog". Well, I mean, my first time to post a reaction thingy here. Oh yeah!! PEOPLE!!! OCTOBER 8 IS MY LUCKIEST DAY!! Well, just for now. Here are the reasons why I really LOVE this day:

1. NO CLASSES!!! As in no lessons, nothing!
2. S4 was practicing for the Intrams next week.
3. We had fun practicing.
4. We made friends with some EME people. Heeheehee! HAHAHA!! (psycho laugh) Well that was because we practiced with them. Yup, including my Variable. HAHAHA!!!
5. I was lucky with my volleyball.
6. It rained.
7. Brandon, Mike and I were able to pass the ComSci project on time.
8. S4 was able to pass their IS final reports ahead of time.
9. Last but not the least, the mere fact that I was fetched earlier than usual by Kuya Cris. Thanks. Ü

Now, these might be considered cheap, or "mababaw" to be considered lucky moments. But, you know me, I'm a happy person. The fact that we "practiced" volleyball was a great moment. *sighs* If you only knew. Another thing that could add to my happiness is the song, "Color Everywhere" by Christian Bautista. I was really struck by that song. Wooh... Variable. It wouldn't be nice to include the whole song but I'll include the chorus only. Here goes...

You, you put the blue back in the sky
You put the rainbow in my eyes
A silver lining in my prayer
And now, there's color everywhere

You put the red back in the rules
Just when I needed it the most
You came along to show you cared
And now, there's color everywhere.

Yeehee!! How nice! How nice!! Bravo! Bravo! 
Okay, I'll stop now. 
*logs off and continues singing (what a lunatic)*

OKAY!!! I was delayed... it was because of SHOCKING learnings from Vary. Ah, EPAL niya! Sorry for the profane language but that's how I really feeL. Anyway, this was suppose to be a surprise containg a picture of him. But not full one, of course. I cut out some parts, so I won't get obvious. But now that I know what he thinks, well maybe, just an idea that I'm not even sure of, I would look tanga to him if I continue what I have planned. So SORRY guys! WeLL, maybe you wouldn't even care. Hehehe Ü

Read the poems:
