First Night

You dream that an invisible person takes you by the hand and leads you out of the room you are in. A bluish-gray mist surrounds you and in the distance you see a glimpse of a new day.

It is difficult to say whether you are floating or walking or which direction you are going.

But then you see that you have arrived at place that is very familiar to you. An impressive edifice rises in front of you, like a pyramid, and you know that it’s your own life pyramid. You can only guess at how high it rises, because the peak is still hidden in the cool morning mist.

Stressed Out!!!

I'm just plain stressed out from my job and its aggravations.!!

Loving too much...

Conversation...

Anne: can a person really love VERY MUCH/ SO MUCH? or it's just a word?

(Best Friend)Mikol Lopez: JUST A WORD

Anne: why?

(Best Friend) Mikol Lopez:

1. love can never be specific
2. love is just one of our basic emotions
3. love is always mistaken as to being always true.



Here's the scenario..




Girl: "do you love me?"

Boy: "yes.."

Girl:" very much?"

Boy: "love.. but not much.."

Girl: "when are you going to love me much?"

Boy: "close your eyes, if you smile.. that means someone is loving you much."

Girl: "how can i smile and know that someones loving me much if i haven't identified that someone yet?"

Boy: are you expecting someone to love you more than my love for you?"

Girl: "the one i'm preferring to love me much and YOU that is loving me but not much are the same person i'm expecting. i wish it could be possibly the same. i really wish. with fingers crossed."

Boy: "Don't wish and don't expect. our life is not like a fairy tale.."

Girl: "i know.. wishes doesn't only exist in fairy tales. i have faith in Him.. in the first place, whatever it is, even if it pains me i am open for acceptance. if its not meant to be, it simply
won't happen.."


-end of the scenario-



girl got no reply from the boy..

Smooth roads never make good Drivers, Clear skies never makes good Pilots and A Smooth sea never made a skilled Sailors.. and Love? It never runs Smooth..

Empowering the youth in their Quest for Genuine self - worth.

The youth are the builders of society, the ever present glimmer of hope of the nation - even at this time of crisis, or rather, especially during this time of crisis. We are given the privilege to make changes - changes geared towards the upliftment of the populace of the nation.

We are encouraged to take control of the growth of our country, and in turn we can enjoy the fruits of our fervent labor. It is in our knowledge though that together with this privilege comes responsibility. The first one doesn't come without the other. Now how is it? or how did it happen that such young minds are given these much heavy a load to carry? Added to the already challenging life we live everyday: the chores at home, the pressure of peers, homework's to tackle, books to browse, terror teachers. And so we ask, "How will we be able to handle such demanding responsibility?"

Even then, the society knows that we can do it. We have all the potentials within us and they can see it. We may not sense that right now but it is there. We may not believe it exists but it does. Just because you don't see the wind doesn't mean it doesn't exist. They also know that for us to be capable and competent of making change we must truly believe in ourselves. It is very important that we know we can do it. It is vital to understand how big a change we can make. We won't be very enthusiastic about doing anything if we have doubts of ourselves, of our abilities to become better than what we already are.

That is where youth empowerment comes in. We are given, again, so many privileges: good education, and the means to it. We are given the right to vote, our voice for whatever messages we want heard. We are given the right of the press and of speech. Our right to hear and be heard. These are only a few of the so many privileges we are offered. If and when we accept all of these and put them into good use, the society can rest and be able to say that they have nurtured the fires in us, our inner desires of doing everything according to our best efforts.

And when we have bloomed into competent makers of change they are still with us and continuing to guide us in our every step, coaxing us on when our hopes of improvement flicker, keeping the flames alive in us, with encouragement and praise. From that, we will know that our efforts are appreciated and will never be in vain. We will be able to witness the changes unfolding before us. We can say then, with conviction in our hearts, that we haven't failed their confidence and belief in us. They will forever be in support of us, the youth, because your success will be everbody's.

Destined ☺

Many times that we're together
talking, sharing thoughts and laughing each other
and remembering those moments that we both experienced;
those minutes that we are crossing different lanes.

Now that we found ourselves
still we have questions that hurls on our mind
and that query still remains...
It's all about the how and the why?

Why did we meet? Why did we fell in love with each other?
How? How did that feelings exist?
Why Love?


I don't know you and vice versa...
this is madness!
I guess you are really right,
that we really are DESTINED! ♥

A Story made by Songs...

This story was written by Erik Person who hopes that the 20's and 30's somethings remember these songs with a smile. Enjoy!


I was working part time in a five and dime.
My boss was Mr. Magee. He was six foot four and full of muscles and walked like an Egyptian, but I was happy to be stuck with him.
One manic Monday, while I was busy working for the weekend, I overheard him make a careless whisper. He told two of my co-workers, Jack and Diane, that I gave love a bad name. Well, I got so emotional, baby. I told him to say say say what he wants, but don’t play games with my affection. He told me it was hard for him to say he’s sorry and not to worry, to be happy. Then he blamed it on the rain. He was so out of touch. It just took my breath away. I couldn’t fight this feeling any longer. I asked him “What’s love got to do with it?” He told me to get outta his store and his dreams and into my car. So I figured I might as well jump.


I cut footloose, went home and called my girl, Jenny. (You already know the number.) She was on the other line with Amanda. They were talking about Mickey and how he was so fine. That blew my mind! Was she really going out with him? I told her that I had just called to say I love her. She told me
she had been saving all her love for me, but now she was looking for a new love - hasta la vista, baby. I thought, “I can’t go for that - no can do! Bring me a higher love!”

I called up some of my old west end girls, hoping that one of them would want to get physical all night long (all night). First I called Billie Jean - she told me to beat it. I called Rosanna - her sister Christian blessed the rains down in Africa and then hung up on me. Come on, Eileen! … no answer. Nobody told me there’d be days like these!

I was feeling like the owner of a lonely heart. Then, out of the blue, my best friend’s girlfriend (she used to be mine) Roxanne calls. Yes, the real Roxanne. She told me she still hadn’t found what she’s looking for and that she wanted to take on me. I said, “I thought you were Jessie’s girl.” She said, “Don’t you want me? You don’t have to put on the red light - I’m on my own.” What a feeling! I had the eye of the tiger. Who was I f-f-f-foolin? Roxanne drove me crazy like no one else. She’s a beauty! She blinded me
with science, and weird science at that. There was always something there to remind me of her and I just knew that I’d have the time of my life. I wasn’t about to la-di-da-di.

I jumped in my little red Corvette and rocked down to Electric Avenue. I got my mind set on her. When I got to her house (in the middle of her street) I ran. I rapped on her front door and to this rapper’s delight, I heard a voice say “Who can it be now?” “Here I am, the one that you love," I replied. I let my love open the door and was immediately lost in her eyes. I felt like a virgin touched for the very first time. She loosened her blouse and said, “Rock me Amadeus!” Well, I felt it was my prerogative to bust a move. I told her, “I’ll tumble for ya!” as I pinned her on the stairs, hungry like the wolf.

Just then I felt an invisible touch on my shoulder. “Turn around bright eyes!” said a familiar voice. As I did, Jessie hit me with a sledgehammer of an uppercut that spun me right round like a record. He was hangin’ tough and continued to roll with it, knocking the wind from beneath my wings - broken wings by this time. He rocked me tonight, for old time’s sake, beating me from head to toe, until my true colors were black and blue and blood was spilling from my mouth like red, red wine. “You don’t owe me money for nothing!” he snarled. At this point I was livin’ on a prayer. I crawled back to my little red Corvette and drove home thinking about how my tainted love had cut like a knife - how it seems that every
rose, truly, has its thorn.

No longer do I want to know what love is. Love stinks.

Congratulations Graduates! ♀♂

Once upon a time, yours truly was invited to be a Resource Speaker for Graduation last year 2008.. I would like to share this thing for the Graduates of 2010.. Special thanks to my super close and extra ordinary best friend Paffi for sharing thoughts and ideas on how to make a speech and be a proficient and a decent extra ordinary speaker in front of the crowd.. :-)

The Board of Directors, revered faculty and staff, parents, guests and the graduating class of 2008, Good Afternoon! I am both honored and flattered to speak for this wonderful occasion.

Congratulations Batch 2008!

Your achievements in the realms of Scholarship, Leadership, Community Service, and Character are being honored here this day by your induction into these new challenges that awaits you in the next four to five years in college.

An honor such as this is a wonderful way for the school and community to recognize and celebrate the choices, and sometimes the sacrifices, you have made.

Not long ago I was sitting on the same graduation seat, eyes was glued to the guest speaker and pretended to be listening to his address. But the truth was my childish thoughts were actually frivolous and was preoccupied with something else. I was more concerned on the thought that I would be going to college.

Now it has been 32 years since IMCC is producing quality graduates. These alumni’s have brought honors and recognitions both local and international arena. There are some companies abroad that prioritize IMCC products on the field of Nursing. Computer experts excel not only in Cebu but as well as in Manila and as far as Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Korea and even in Britain. The question is, would I be able also bring honor to my alma mater in the future?

Commonly, as young adults our ambition is fleeting. Aim is unfocused, fickle-minded on which College to enroll, and worst of all, undecided on what course to take. Although I was blessed with supportive parents who gave me the freedom to pick whatever course I would choose, I admit I found it hard to decide for myself. I even felt I was left in uncertainty. All I really know at that time, well just as everybody else does, was that “I want to succeed in life” but on which particular aspect in my life?

I was glad to realize, though, that the answer to my question lies on my personal belief that “We can make success in everything that we do. It is just a matter of attitude. And while success knows no limit, take advantage on it.”

Regardless of the career path you have chosen, success is always there ready for you to get hold unto. Now let me let you know the secrets on how to succeed. These are the following points you need to internalize.

1st Set a Goal and Recognize Its Importance – Aim on something you really desire and determine why it is important to achieve it. This is very useful in deciding what course to take in college. If you fail on this first step, then you are unsuccessful at the very threshold of your aspirations.

2nd Take Responsibility for Your Actions – Have you decided on a specific discipline in college, be a competent student. You study hard and exert all your efforts to deliver your best. Remember, there is no one to be blamed for your success or failure but yourself.

3rd Use Mistakes to Build a Bright Future – No one is perfect. Confucius said “It does not matter the number of times we fall but the number of times we rise when we fall.” You should learn wisely on how to reverse failure into success or transform negative into positive.

4th Find Inspiration in the World around You – The world is blessed with successful individuals who have made a name in their respective field. Success is attained in various discipline and respect. You can be a successful writer like the late Sidney Shieldon, be inspired by Mother Theresa’s humanitarian advocacy, or simply admire your intelligent school principal and as well as teachers, Sir Arnado My Geometry and Statistics teacher, Maam Tilao, my home economics teacher, Maam Marivic Delima, my grade 4 adviser who is now Maam Marivic Tempiatura, and my other mentors way back in high school – though others were not here but this is my opportunity to say thank you, you really were my inspirations.

5th Never Give Up on a Dream – According to Napoleon Hill “Cherish your visions and your dreams, as they are the children of your soul, the blueprints of your ultimate achievements.”

6th Creating A Personal Code to Live By – You should have a personal system of principle for the conduct of life. My principle as I have mentioned earlier is that “We can make success in everything that we do. It is just a matter of attitude. And while success knows no limit, take advantage on it.” This is the same personal code that helped me determine the aspect of life I wanted to succeed.

7th The Golden Rule – Confucius once said that “Do not do unto others what you don’t want others do unto you.”

8th Never Forget Your Roots. - I have always been loyal to this wonderful institution that provides extensive learning. Through the years since elementary, to high school, I even acquired my college degree here so I am proud to say I have earned a comprehensive knowledge from IMCC. Famous Scottish novelist, essayist, and poet Robert Louis Stevenson says “Everyone who got where he is has had to begin where he was”

9th Focus on the Important Things in Life .

10th Setting High Expectations – By setting a high expectation you are challenging yourself to attain high ideals, thereby, maintains the drive to success. Two weeks ago I met an old friend in high school who congratulated me for the success of my career as an educator in this institution. Beaming with pride I smiled to acknowledge the compliment but she added, “anne you are now a successful person, what more can you asks for?” I was stunned by her words “what more can you ask for?” does she mean that I am supposed to stop from here, or just stagnate because I have just accomplished something worth a success?! NO WAY! I may have succeeded in attaining a college degree, successful in my dreams of becoming an educator but it does not stop there. Presently I am taking my Master’s Degree in Information Technology and after this will be a Doctorate in the same field like our CCS Dean Doctor Liezl Grace P. Wagas. Success after each success in every undertaking for it has no limit, broadening my path, moving forward to conquering the profoundness of new horizons. IMCC on its 32th year of producing quality students, shares the same points I have given to you.

So before I end, I have a piece of advice and that is “not to hesitate to step over the threshold of the door that is already open for you. With the knowledge and friends you gained from your alma mater, the Iligan Medical Center College, you will overcome every obstacle. The main thing is to follow your dream and have persistence and faith. Do not settle and keep looking to succeed.


So let me wish you luck and perseverance. I wish you all successes on you life path. As we go on, we grow together with our alma mater, for success knows no limit, IMCC Let’s Keep Moving On To New Horizons! Good luck to you all!

So Exhausted!

☼ Climate Change ☼

“We sometimes emphasize the danger in a crisis without focusing on the opportunities that are there. We should feel a great sense of urgency because it is the most dangerous crisis we have ever faced, by far. But it also provides us with opportunities to do a lot of things we ought to be doing for other reasons anyway. And to solve this crisis we can develop a shared sense of moral purpose.” Al Gore

CLIMATE CHANGE...

“Is it on?! The gods probably turned the heater on or left the cooler on for too long!”

Remember those Greek Mythology movies, were people used to summon Poseidon the water attribute god to bring water to them and how about those Indian movies where they would do the rain dance to call up to the rain god and bring water to their farms. In our case, we can’t do that…if that were possible I am dead sure there would be a healthy business for dance schools all over the country! You would ask why in the world I speak of water. In climate change, water is one of the vital parts that are deeply affected by climate change. A good example would be the North Artic. Imagine, if that thing melts, not even Mt. Apo can save your precious self and your laptop from getting wet.

Oh-okay! oooh-okay! Enough of the scary stuff…Let’s analyze what we can do instead of pointing fingers. I assume all of you have heard facts like “did you know you can make a computer out of tin cans?! Blah! Blah!” but my question is, have all of you bothered to try it? And the probable truth would be a “NO” and yes, even I, which am why I speak of this now, for all of you to be aware of the reality of this problem. But I am expecting not just to be aware but to participate in helping with this crisis. So here’s the boiling point question, what can you do and can you get something out of it?

Let’s face it; during these changes in our environment most of its cause is in tagged with money to be frank or business to make it formal in the ears of the public. Yet, we still can talk business while saving our planet, *HUSH*. A lot here must be assuming of building a recycling plant or something. But that’s the things I had in mind in the first place. But what can we really do, so we’re short on money for funding, any bright ideas?! So that would leave us to our only option which is to go small scale, which is the reason why I’m bringing this matter to the mass. That if we can set our first order of business that is to be a responsible inhabitant of this place called earth, this crisis will be fixed in no time. And in terms with money?! Let me break it down for you, why in the first place our food suddenly went up in terms with price, which is the supply is low and why is the supply low? Because of sudden changes in the weather, why is that? Due to pollutions and other all sorts of actions that hurts our planet, and what does it has to do with our climate change again?! It cracks down our ozone layer and boom there goes everything. Domino effect in every wrong moves we do, now you do the math on what are the possibilities if this get worst, start by imagining losing our very own first line of protection which is the ozone layer.

This logic applies to all, if I would bring up every example that I can come up to, the Arctic would have already melted by the time I’m done. If this can be reversed or to be prevented at least, we can sleep again without even thinking how much galunggong would be after a month or any other such products or services.

Ice age is not so far from happening if that occurs. So if you’re genuinely concerned or just plain scared what are you going to do about it? It’s not rocket science for us not to understand and apply what we should be doing now, all it needed is us to be responsible and be consistent to what we are about to do, that is to save our planet from ourselves.

Valentine By: Kina Grannis




Lyrics:

KINA GRANNIS - Valentine lyrics

Love, it's a special day
We should celebrate and appreciate
That you and me found something pretty neat
And I know some say this day is arbitrary

But it's a good excuse to put our love to use
Baby, I know what to do
Baby, I will love you
I'll love you, I'll love you

Love, I don't need those things
I don't need no ring
I don't need anything
But you with me
'Cause in your company
I feel happy, oh so happy and complete

And it's a good excuse to put our love to use
Baby, I know what to do
Baby, I will love you
I'll love you, I'll love you

So won't you be my honey bee?
Giving me kisses all the time
Be mine, be my Valentine

So won't you be my honey bee?
Giving sweet kisses all the time
Be mine, be my Valentine

: have a Happy Valentines! :)

Ee Cummings : I CARRY YOUR HEART WITH ME ♥

* discovered this from an inspiring movie "In Her Shoe" ☻

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in

my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear

no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant

and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

What is LOVE?

"What is love?" I think it is more than merely passion flowing, more than just emotion’s gain, more than the sense of flesh on flesh. For one, it is an opening of the heart, so very hard to describe. It is compassion, yet it is self-interest too. It is giving, yet it is receiving. It is caring, yet it is letting go, saying yes and at times even saying no. It is to empathize, yet to realize another must learn to feel for themselves. Yet it is even more somehow.

Love is commitment, yet love is also a setting free. Love is inspiration, intuition, joy. Yet it is also heartbreak and loneliness and solitude. Love is the trembling excitation of newness, and the shaking of the grief of loss. Love is a slow and steady pace, yet too, it is the exuberance that makes us want to run and dance and sing. Love is ecstasy and misery, sureness and confusion. Love makes us feel as if we could do anything, yet love also makes us feel like nothing at all at times. Love is being light-headed and dizzy, yet love is feeling heavy and as if about to die. Love is the slow and steady heart, yet the flutter of its racing too. It is freedom, yet it can also be the bars of a prison found deep within, can it not?

Love is ageless and timeless and without dimension, yet love is here and now in this moment of forever. Love is ancient and new and ever-becoming. Love is what we always and ever and never can have, for love is dynamic. Love is the worth and the meaning and the quality of hope and hopelessness. Love is the glory of enlightenment and the darkness of unknowing.

Love is the sleeping and the dreaming and the waking. Love is real and yet invisible, felt and yet the deepest mystery. Love is existence and its annihilation. Love is the question and the answer ever changing. Love is what we want to do and have to do and refuse to do. Love is pain and comfort too, the illness of disease and also it’s healing. Love is the beauty of perfection, yet the difference of disfiguration.

Love is the height and the depth and the width, yet love is immeasurable. Love is darkness, love is light. Love is emptiness and fullness, the yin and yang - forever and always distinct yet flowing within and through and with each other. Love is the yearning for life and the illusion of death. Love is continuance in time and time’s obliteration. Love is its own beginning and ending and becoming.

Love is wanting and needing to gather them in your arms to comfort them, but not being able to; knowing that any touch, even the most loving, will only bring them more pain. Love is standing back and allowing them what they need the most, even if their need is to die, to move on, to let go. Love is carrying the great burden of having been helpless to save them. Love is letting the wounds heal, that someday they might heal cleanly, leaving only loving memories instead of scars. Love is allowing them to lie in bed when they are too weak to get up; lifting them into a wheelchair when only their eyes are left to speak to you to tell you what it is they really want; then rolling them back and forth through their house because you know that, even in such a state, their eyes still really do work and need more than just one ceiling to stare at, day in and day out. Love is letting go - to let go the hope of their medications when they are no longer able to swallow them. Love is signing the DNR so that the doctors can no longer just prolong their misery.

Love is sad and love is sweet. Love is tender memories. Love is one last kiss on the forehead of the beloved before the coffin is closed. One more touch of a hand now grown cold. Love knows that every moment, every year, and every tear have really mattered beyond any hint of dissension. Love is forgiving them for having been human and having to leave first. Love is treasuring the good times that lie hiding in your memories.

Love leads beyond obsession or possession. Love sees the light inside forevermore. No matter the darkness controlling their limbs or their minds. Love stands up and takes a beating in their place without complaint. Love burns us up inside, thus allowing us to start over - again and then again.

Love is a star in darkness growing - a great illumination of the soul. Love claims our hearts and won’t let go again, no matter what infraction some cold society might try to blame and shame us with. Love is knowing when to walk away, and knowing when to stay. Love is empathy so deep that we must feel each pain, each joy, and each great distraction that the other feels, in sync. Love is an insanity that never ends, the craziness to take a risk, the despair of the most lost and lonely moments of our being. Love is intuiting the fact that silence can be the most honest statement of all, instead of choosing to use it as a weapon. Love is holding in the letting go while letting go control. Love is a peak when the entire world senses harmony and peace drawn from the chaos of the universe. Ever expanding until it breaks down yet again.

Love is living through the pain they left behind. Blindly absorbing it until its form and substance have a chance to really change. Love is letting your mind drift over the embellished moments of agony that must come, soon or late, of any real relationship. Love is saying, "Yes, it hurts. It hurts so much," while clinging to the truth that this too, will surely pass. Love is the frenzy and the arguments, but most of all the making peace again.

Put OUT of your MIND...

* I would like to repost this one here.. though i have posted this in my recent blog site specifically the friendster blog. i don't know where did i get this famous poetry but up to now it's still beautiful to read specially to those people who can relate.. :)

FORGET HIM!

Forget his name, forget his face
Forget his sweet words and warm embrace
Forget the love that once was true
Remember now there’s someone new

Forget the way he used to talk
Forget how you memorized his walk
Forget the fights you two had
Remember now he’s happy not sad

Forget the times he made you cry
Forget the times when he was by your side
Forget the way he spoke your name
Remember now things aren’t be the same

Forget the love that once was shared
Forget the fact that he once cared
Forget how close you two were
Remember now he has chosen her

Forget the days that went so fast
Forget them all they’re just the past
Forget the promises he gave to you
Forget him girl, for he has FORGOTTEN YOU!
