a quote

Do not assume that he who seeks to comfort you now, lives untroubled among the simple and quiet words that sometimes do you good. His life may also have much sadness and difficulty, that remains far beyond yours. Were it otherwise, he would never have been able to find these words.

A girl in the mirror

I look in the mirror only to see,

a girl, she is taunting me

But don't you see,

only wish she would let me be.

she may not be pretty,

and she certainly is not nice.

But she is mean and rude,

and I fear this is her only mood.

I see hate and sadness in her eyes,

and alone in her room is where she cries.

Sitting on her bed with a knife,

she is ready to end her life.

She's been rapped, and she has been beaten,

It's been four days since the last time she's eaten.

Yes, she has seen things you would not wish to see,

But this terrible, lonely girl... is me! (unfortunately)

a ghost

I cry out
But no one hears me
I seek shelter
But no one shields me
I reach out
But no one sees me
I scream
I cry
But only on the inside
No one knows me
I exist only to myself
I am in your world
But only as a ghost
Forever lost
Dying on the inside

Converse

You wake to suffer through the day
Trade a dream for the pay
Well here's the fact, I hope it sticks

You're just alive out of habit

I swear to you on everything I am
And I dedicate to you all that I have
And I promise you that I will stand right by your side
Forever and always until the day I die

Hate can be a positive emotion
When it forces you to better yourself

I will not be broken
I am the one

Just live and breathe
And try not to die again.

Don't lose touch with life's reality.
Compensate for life's stupidity.

My heart bleeds no more.
Now it's been turned to stone.

Leave me alone
Don't come any closer
I'm so alone
And you call me a loser

There once was a time
When silence meant nothing to me.

These questions in my mind
Are so much bigger than life.

I need not your wicked weapons
my war is not with someone like you

staring at the world
through the hole you
put through my head

I might look young
But I'm no less defeated

Just talking with my shoes
Converse with my Converse

Duncan Sheik-Half Life


Intro:F-Gm-Bb-F-C
Verse 1:
F
I'm awake in the afternoon
Gm
I fell asleep in the living room
      Bb
and it's one of those moments
       F             C
when everything is so clear

F
before the truth goes back into hiding
Gm
I want to decide 'cause it's worth deciding
    Bb            F                    C
to work on finding something more than this fear

Bridge:
Bb               F         C
It takes so much out of me to pretend
Bb           F              C
tell me now, tell me how to make amends

Chorus:
F                        C
maybe, I need to see the daylight
                   Dm
to leave behind this half-life
                 Bb
don't you see I'm breaking down

F                            C
(ohh) lately, something here don't feel right
              Dm
this is just a half-life
               Bb
is there really no escape?
F               Gm      F
no escape from time
F          C
of any kind

F-Gm-Bb-F-C

I keep trying to understand
this thing and that thing, my fellow man
I guess I'll let you know
when i figure it out

but I don't mind a few mysteries
they can stay that way it's fine by me
and you are another mystery i am missing

It takes so much out of me to pretend

maybe, I need to see the daylight
to leave behind this half-life
don't you see I'm breaking down

Lately, something here don't feel right
this is just a half-life
is there really no escape?
no escape from time
of any kind

Dm           C            Bb
come on lets fall in love
come on lets fall in love
come on lets fall in love
again

'cause lately something here don't feel right
this is just a half-life,
without you I am breaking down

wake me, let me see the daylight
save me from this half-life
let's you and I escape
escape from time

come on lets fall in love
come on lets fall in love
come on lets fall in love
again

(Intro) 2x

Goodbye

Don’t want to say these words;
I don't want to see you cry.
I hoped it would never have come to this,
I hoped I'd never say goodbye.

But there’s something you should know,
before I set you free.
It's because of you,
that today I am me.

You helped me through the hard times;
you helped me through the roughs.
No matter how bad things could get,
you were always very tough.

You were always smiling,
your were always glad.
Hardly ever,
did I see you mad.

So don't forget,
the laughs we shared.
And the love we gave each other,
and how much we cared.

So one more thing,
before I go.
This is one thing,
you have to know.

Quote For The Month....

" Put yourself into someone's shoes is a common phrase. But It is not a common thing that we do everyday. We are, most of the time, self centered, especially in this modern, fast-paced life. It is only when we stop for a moment, and give our time to others, that we realize the true meaning of emphaty "

Falling

Just let me fall, fall to my death.
But please don't call, for I'm running out of breath.
Don't try to stop me, you've done enough,
just give me that stuff to heal the pain,
to block you from my tortured mind,
to help me forget,
forget we ever met.
You said you love her, and the broke my heart,
now I guess it's time for me to start.
Now I will eat my last meal, make my last "deal",
and now I'm glad that never again will i feel.
so give me more, for I am sore,
sore from all the hurt,
and I will soon be under six feet of dirt.
Now give me more, more,
so I can open the door,
the door that leads to my death.
Now once again, I need more met,
enough to end this, end my life.
Now give me my knife, so I can slowly bleed,
bleed you away from me.
Now do you see,
do you see how much you meant to me.
But now you're nothing, nothing at all.
Now it's time for me to fall.
Fall to my death.

Experience With STI

It’s been four years since I graduated from high school. That time, I had many plans for my college life. I took Bachelor of Science in Information Technology in a well known engineering university. College life is quite difficult, new faces, new professors, new subjects and new friends. There were no signs of my old comrades there. It is hard to adjust especially when your school is far from your place. After 6 months of studying there, I stopped due to family and financial problems. I forced my self to work just to help my parents supply our basic needs. I was recently employed in one of the country’s leading manufacturing company. I work there for one year and 2 months and after that I resigned. After I resigned, I plan to pursue my studies. I saw STI San Pedro and it became my first priority where I will pursue my career. I was encouraged to study there because it offers quality education yet with affordable tuition fees.

It was last June 11, 2007 when I first saw my fellow students and the members of the faculty staff it is the day of our orientation. On that day, the staffs discussed to us the school’s rules and regulations as well as their mission and vision. June 13, 2007, this is the start of our regular class. On that day I met my classmates and my professors. STI gave me a chance to prove my academic capabilities by letting me join the “Tagisan ng Talino“held last August 2007. I was one of the selected students who will compete with other STI branch. The school taught me to trust in my abilities and talents. My first semester here was really fun. All the faculty staff here is approachable and friendly, they can even be your comrades. I can never regret that STI is really great in molding and guiding the students to become successful in their careers because it offers a quality education with an affordable and negotiable tuition fees. I will finish my studies and pursue my dreams with STI by my side.

Memories of the Past Comrades

First Semester had passed. It’s the new semester we're facing now, same classmates and only a few are new but the saddest things were we are down to few. From 29 we are now down to 19. Haizt........ How we miss our fellow classmates when we are on our first semester. But that's life, there are some people who go in and out of our life but the most important thing to remember is the friendship built in our hearts. Though we are separated, in our hearts we always have each other. Reminiscing the happy and sad memories, the non-sense quarrels, and the nicknames we call on our enemies. hahahaha.......

Life does'nt end here. We still have to go on and pursue our dream. Eventhough we dont have our past comrades, we still have communication with them through the use of cellphones and the most ever popular site Friendster.
