Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know - Ernest Hemingway

Have fun on 9gag!

Because it's almost V day.

And it's V for Vendetta {trololololol} Heard this play on the radio on my way back home last night. Now I've got this grin stuck on my face, and an LSS to boot. Partially sums up my {really, really} funny Valentine story.

My satirically funny, funny Valentine story.

Enjoy and congratulations on your newly acquired LSS!

Because today is a palindrome

At ang puso ay muling nabigo
Tinalikuran ng pag-asa
Kinalimutan ng ligaya.

Ang pusong pinagkaitan ng ngiti,
Na sabik sa saliw ng tugtuging matamis

Ang pusong umaasa
Na patuloy kinukutya,
Ang puso na patuloy na nagluluksa

Ay ang syang puso na pinuno ng pait;

Dahil ang pusong nagmahal, ay ang pusong nasawi.

Expectation is the root of all heartache.

Hands down the truest statement I've ever agreed to. Enjoy your schadenfreude.

And my heart skipped a {little} bit of a beat

And my heart skipped a {little} bit of a beat
Knowing that you are here
And that I am first on your thoughts
In the morning when you wake up
And in the evening, when you wake up a second time.

‘Cause my heart skips a bit
Gets too excited to beat
When it remembers you are mine
And you are just around all the time.

And my heart will continue to beat
‘Cause you’re the one I want to live with
The man I want to spend my life for
And be happy with, yonder more.

QC Earthquake July 26, 2011

Minutes ago Eastwood was rattled by yet another earthquake. Sources say it had a magnitude of 5.9. Roughly three months ago, we had a 5.2 shake.

Oh Gaia. Does it mean we have to get used to this?

Happy un-birthday to everyone! (Except to Karl Marx and I)

Happy un-birthday to everyone else!

Of MAJAM Jazz Trio and Sky Lanterns

Since the movie Tangled, I've been dazed by sky lanterns. I feel like a gamo gamo, mystified by such sight. And since then, I've occupied myself with researching on how I could get my hands (or eyes) on these pretty little things. Either I go to Thailand in November, for the Yi Peng festival, or buy ready made sky lanterns online.

Or we can make some. Saw this on the almighty web.

How to Make Paper Lanterns

Reg and Cor, up for a project?

On the other side of myself, here's the most awesome version
of Bahay Kubo ever.

(That's my tito on bass, I just had to say.)

Amused to see these from my old multiply site (yes, when I was in college there was only multiply. after friendster.)

Lure me to Your un-shallow grave
Thy blood, let flow
Cover me with grace
Your glory fall
My tragedy wash
“All is forgotten”,
You said, “It is done.”
Pierce my heart
Replace it with new
Soften my soul
Let it be passionate for You
To Thee for all I do rely
Stir me more
I surrender my life.
