down the memory lane

i cleaned out my room (oh, di nga?). removed the 'memories'. hahaha. really. why just now? it's been over a year. well, i think maybe because for the past months i've only been spending about 3 nights a week here so i didn't really notice the details but now that i've been sleeping in my room for more than a month, well, the details really bug me. like, when i'm not really doing anything, i suddenly get in this 'mushy mode' and think of all the 'what ifs,' and wonder that maybe i made the wrong decision. and i hate how i become when i feel that way, because most of the time, when i'm in my sanest, i actually am sure that i made the right decisions. so now, i'm de-memorying (ha?) my room. hehe. only that got me into senti mood again. but then, maybe this is the last time. i put all the 'memories' in a closet so high up that i can't reach it without standing on a chair, that way i won't have easy access to them. haiii. :'( even if things didn't turn out the way i wished they would about 2 years ago, i'm still grateful for the good times. they're worth remembering, just not everyday. hehe.


deaths

yoyoy villame and kuya cesar (the radio announcer)
hai. la lang. i remember one yoyoy villame song..

Correct pronunciation
Of public institution
Emphasis on public
And not on institution!

^good point.

moving on, life is short. live in a way that you won't regret, in a way that will make your days worth remembering- by you and by other people. and of course, in a way that will make God smile. life is short.


now just a number

every person now just a name
every name now just a number
too soon forgotten
too soon an encore

in the news we hear of countless election-related deaths, then president gma's face flashes across the screen and her voice over saying that we had 'generally peaceful' elections. and that investors are going back to put their money in the philippines because of how proper the elections went. heck, the investors are either extremely stupid or they don't have access to philippine news except for what the administration tells them. people died while doing their jobs, they did not get the protection they deserve. in this life, world class citizens are the ones most deprived of the things that they need. it doesn't always have to be that way. there can be change. but the current administration doesn't see the need for change, because for them the elections were 'generally peaceful' and 'proper.' hell i wonder if they're talking about the same country that i'm living in, because as far as i know, countless families were affected, and justice still seems far out of sight.
