Memory From The Past: Reposting Of My Last Article From My Aemilian Column UNSHACKLED
July 2010: Me and my friend Erika were
in the DJ’s booth waiting to go on air. As we did this we chatted in between
tips on entertaining our listeners’ messages and modulating voice. To help me
calm my nerves (I was a newbie on the booth), our topic shifted to my writing
job, our days as school paper staffer, and that one article she read back in
college that she liked very much…

A Memory...Time...Acceptance and Letting Go... (part II)
Heal was the first...many followed....
Wanting to Get Over
I feel you...even if you're not there
and even you're with someone else
I still feel you loving me
I see you, in the corners of this lonely room
even though there's nothing here but gloom
hoping that someday you'll fill it too
refrain:
Would I be happy, if you decided to stay?
Should I feel sorry, for loving you this way?
chorus:
my eyes are dry from crying all those tears,
feeling sorry for the love I felt all these years,
but i have to let go
knowing you're heart's here no more
wanting to get over you
is the hardest thing to do.
In your arms, I felt magic of a love so strong
now there's nothing left for me to do
but to move on and face the truth
And it's hard, to mend pieces of a broken heart
but I know I'm gonna make it through
knowing I'm giving my best to forget you
refrain 2
Should I feel wiser, knowing I've done what's right?
Should I feel stronger, now that I'm saying goodbye?
chorus:
my eyes are dry from crying all those tears,
feeling sorry for the love I felt all these years,
but i have to let go
knowing you're heart's here no more

A Memory...Time...Acceptance and Letting Go...
It's been a while....
I've been trying write something for this blog but the words can't seem to get out. A lot of things had happened that one may consider somewhat exciting. I'm still writing (that's something no one can dare take away), been a DJ, had sleep, got out for fun, and taught college students for their Algebra: in other words I had loads of stuff to do that boredom was "getting bored" of waiting for his turn...
I was completely busy....
And I was completely not thinking about him...
I had other things to worry about....until this week...
In the middle of computing grades, fixing articles. helping a friend with her project in MIT, thinking about taking MIT next semester, and wishing to play Rohan with a friend, the thought came back....
It's been years...the way I feel may not be the same as before whenever I see his pictures, yet the memories--I may not be holding them or maybe I'm just cherishing them so much--remind me of how I was hurt.
Accepting was hard yet it reminds us of how love should be given...UNSELFISHLY...Love is wise after all. Man was the only one foolish. He was my darkness and in time he let me shine bright--he made me light and he made me see another light from a distance (hope)....
For a memory that I love...
For the time that taught me well...
and for accepting the fact that at times the only way to say you love a person is by letting go....

Below is a song I composed with my sister. I was in my last year of college then and in the middle of making the project documentation for a digital scoreboard, I ended up writing this. It became famous among the high school students of ACI when my sister sang it on stage. She was in her third year of high school when she gave the melody. Up 'til now her classmates know the song's chorus....this is HEAL...
Heal
I
In every place I see your face smiling at me
I hear your voice sing with the wind calming my every chill
It's late at night and I feel sorry
for myself 'cause I know you're not here....
********
Now I look at the sky
wishing and hoping that somehow you'd come my way again
'Cause I just can't deny how much I love you
How I want you to stay
******
II
For every touch as I quiver feeling all the love
The gladness that lingers deep sending me high up above
I'm here again
praying for what wasn't there
********
Now I look at the sky
wishing and hoping that somehow you'd come my way again
'Cause I just can't deny how much I love you
How I want you to stay
******
How many sad songs must I hear to realize that you're not for me?
How may times do I have to face everyday without you near?
********
Now I look at the sky
wishing and hoping that somehow you'd come my way again
'Cause I just can't deny how much I love you
How I want you to stay
******
'Cause I'm here now
here without you
holing on to my faith
that my heart would heal someday....
This was the first of many songs....and its been a while 'till I was able to make again....
yup, it has been a while....

Taking Chances
there are times that we have to let go of something in order to gain more. it may hurt us in the process yet these are opportunities for us to grow and be the best person that we can be. moving forward may mean trekking the unknown but how will we find out the things ahead if we are not going to venture on? life may be unpredictable and chances are things may happen differently than what we wanted--then again things happen for a reason. it may be tough at times but lessons are learned more. Bravery is one trait measured by how we face reality yet hold on to our dreams.
taking chances at times are what's best...taking chances to love, to grow, and to tread the waters and see how vast the ocean is.....
actually i'm just gonna share a song by Celine Dion. A toast to moving on and taking chances....

Thanks to Didi Benami
American Idol is that one reason why I want to go back to sorsogon more than ever recently and stay at home. Didi Benami was that waitress that captured my attention because of her electrifying performance in Hollywood week singing Terrified by Kara Dioguardi.
So she was this one girl whom I believe will definitely be someone people find as charming and interesting with the way she had sung all her song. Recently she gave me another love song to enjoy--"the way I am" by Ingrid Michaels. Totally lovable.
It’s a cute song that at present I can't stop playing...just take me the way I am baby.
