BOY UTADA

You sent me this...

Narenai doushi de, yoku ganbatta ne
machigatta koi wo shita kedo... machigai de wa nakatta...

Yume miteta no wa doko made?

Watashi no te de Be my last... Itsuka musubareru yori.


Being unaccustomed to one another, we did well, no?
We were part of a mistaken love... but it wasn't really a mistake ...

How far were we dreaming?

With my hands, be my last... So that we may one day be connected.

---------

I replied...

Yup... YOU BE MY LAST!

MORE FOUR LETTER WORDS...

Yesterday: "I hate you more..."

Tonight: "I hope your day was peachy!"

Me: "Ano ba talaga? Haha?"

Hirap mong ispelengin...

I was checking the dictionary and I found other great four letter words....

Rush.
Luck.
Good.
Wish.
Life.
Fate.

That's the optimist in me talking.

So what does the boy think?

FEAR , IN THE END, IS A FOUR LETTER WORD

I got this text yesterday from someone who's slowly becoming a natural part of my system.

"I hate myself for being afraid... I'm scared of myself when it comes to you..."

I always feel that I'm easy to get along with but in honesty I'm very difficult to fathom. And I'm actually happy and okay with it because by being so, people would usually take time to get to know the real me. I am a difficult person I know. I'm difficult to read, difficult to understand but once you invest time and get to know me I'm really just the most natural and the most loyal thing there is. I know myself. I know my limitations but I also know what I'm good at and capable of.

I will never be impulsive that's for sure. I will never give in just because I'm pressured or just because it's the most convenient thing to do. I want to discover relationships. I want to explore people. I want time, an ample time to really get to know someone. I'll never be afraid because fear will only leave me with parameters and with limitations. If I'm interested I'd take time and the effort to really get to know you, to get to be in your shoes and experience your being. In the end I'd always want to be sure of myself before taking in the plunge. In the process I may hurt myself or maybe hurt others but in this game of the hearts that's the price that we all have to pay. Love is evolving, it will never be easy, it's a difficult process but in the end it's definitely worth the time and the effort. Finding and falling in love is the most rewarding thing on earth.

He will be able to read this post I know... (As you've said it yourself) "Fearing to be only increases the risk of becoming...".

It's dangerous there in the freeway.

We just really have to always wear our safetybelts on.

OF GREAT NATIONAL INTEREST

Haha... was checking out some emails and my friend Damien forwarded these useless sites that actually helped me out in my boring Sunday morning... had fun towards afternoon when I got to check out Body Combat and Cosmic Spinning at Fitness... talk about natural high in sports... definitely worth the hit.

But anyway, yeah... check out these useless sites that can leave you a smile or two... But hey, they're really useless ok... don't say I didn't warn you...

LAST FULL SHOW

Kapelikula Pictures proudly brings you LAST FULL SHOW, directed by a young Filipino-American director Mark Reyes. The movie tells us the story a young affluent schoolboy Crispin and how the seedy underground movie world has taught him life lessons not necessarily taught in the four corners of his classroom.

Ang Last Full Show ang kauna-unahang pelikula ng batang director na si Mark Reyes. Mahigit sa dalawang taon bago nya nabuo ang sensitibong screenplay ng pelikula na ayon rin sa kanya ay masasabing may pagka auto-biographical.

Ang batang si Crispin ang syang sentral na karakter at sa kanya umiikot ang masalimuot na istorya ng pelikula. Habang unti-unti nyang nakikilala ang mundo ng pagnanasa ay makikilala nya ang isang mas nakakatandang lalaki na siyang magtuturo sa kanya ng masakit na realisasyon ng isang bawal na pag-ibig.

At ang first time direktor natin ay pumili sa mga baguhang aktor upang gumanap ng sensitibong karater na si Crispin.

Ang napili niya ay ang binatang si Francis Villanueva na di kapani-paniwalang walang anumang background sa pag-arte .

Francis Villanueva was such a natural that his presence in the screen alone was already the triumph of the movie. But the brilliance of the movie doesn’t stop there.

The movie is probably one of the best works of ace cinematographer Neil Daza, responsible for such opus as Dekada 70, Yamashita, and La Vida Rosa. The Production design is by topnotch production designer, Famas awardee Kaye Abano.

To date the movie has been shown in more than 36 film festivals abroad and will be premiering in Manila this coming Cinemanila International Film Festival.

Abangan ninyo ang espesyal na pelikulang ito na talaga namang maipagmamalaki natin sa buong mundo.

AND THE BUTTERFLIES GOT BORED...

Your's was a breath of fresh air.
But inactivity made the freshness stale.


Now... the butterflies are scattered.
And it will be difficult
to gather them back again.

Five words.

you...
can...

THE BOYS CRIED BUT NOBODY LISTENED

From an article that I just read:

Two gay Iranian teenagers -- one 18, the other believed to be 16 or 17, were executed this week for the "crime" of homosexuality, the Iranian Student News Agency (ISNA) reported on July 19. (The ISNA report is in Farsi, and was translated into English by the British gay rights group OutRage!, which released its report today--ISNA also provided the terrifying photos of the teens' last moments you see on this page. The two youths -- identified only by their initials as M.A. and A.M., were hanged on July 19 in Edalat (Justice) Square in the city of Mashhad in north-eastern Iran, on the orders of Court No. 19. The hanging of the teens was also reported by the National Council of Resistance of Iran.

And the website Iran Focus not only confirms the story but provides more details, reporting that "Members of Iran’s parliament from the north-eastern city of Mashad, where a minor and an 18-year-old man were publicly hanged yesterday, vented their anger on Wednesday on foreign and domestic news outlets for reporting the ages of hanged prisoners...Ultra-conservative deputy Ali Asgari said that the two deserved to be hanged in public, adding, 'Whatever sentence is decreed by an Islamic penal system must be approved, unless proven otherwise.' Asgari complained of foreign and domestic reporting that the two were mere boys. 'Instead of paying tribute to the action of the judiciary, the media are mentioning the age of the hanged criminals and creating a commotion that harms the interests of the state,' the member of the Majlis Legal Affairs Committee said. 'Even if certain websites made a reference to their age, journalists should not pursue this. These individuals were corrupt. Their sentence was carried out with the approval of the judiciary and it served them right.' "

What a sad day in human history...

FAIRYTALE OF THE EAGER BOY AND THE BUSY BEE

Honey brings them together.
The eager boy and the busy bee.

Once, the boy posed himself as a bee.
He tried to touch the rose
but the flowers wouldn’t let him.

The thorns pricked
the fingers. The earth drank the blood.
And the busy bee saw the travesty
of pretending.

Pissed,
he went to the boy and stung him
like how a real bee would sting.

“You’ll never be a bee”. He said.
All swollen up, the boy took his cue
And left the busy bee to collect
the honey that he wished only for himself.

“Let me be the one to gather it for you”
That’s how it works the bee told the eager boy.
He consumed the nectar and transformed
it to the honey that brings them together.

The boy dipped his fingers.
The crimson mixed with sweet gold.
He savored every dropped.
And experienced an orgasmic delight that
the honey can only bring him.

The busy bee left the eager boy
and for a moment they were one in spirit.

The bee tried to keep his wound from getting bigger,
for the flowers wouldn’t let him near them too.
This is actually what brings him back,
no matter how dangerous the grounds can be.
To gather the honey that brings them together,
And to see the eager boy happy.

The fairy tale ends here.
And the roses live happily ever after.

EIGHT O'CLOCK AND YOU HAVE TO GO

I’m tired from borrowing seconds,
I’m tired from breathing someone’s air.
I don’t know I f I can spend another person’s morning.
But when you knock at my door, I can’t help but submit.
I surrender to your kiss.

Will I ever see the sun shine between our embrace?
I dare not ask. I do not think. I’m a fool.
And yup, our hearts make us do crazy things.

Until when will I keep up with this?
When I gain freedom,
from you,
from your spell,
from your touch,
from your shadows,
from your smile,
from your heart.

Until then, I’ll be your willing victim.
Until it’s eight o’clock, and you have to go… again.

AT THE FREEWAY...

AT THE AIRPORT...
