moons and junes and ferris wheels

ive looked at life from both sides now
from up and down, and still somehow
its lifes illusions I recall
i really dont know life at all.



sidestreets and main strips

will you start on a path even if you’re not sure if you’d wanna finish it?
will you walk silently on the hidden alleys just to be away from god’s lips?
will you stalk the shadows of the stars walking up the huge avenue?
will you shine your own shoes and start running, paving your views?

will you rest for a while and compute the signs,
is going back a shorter distance to your own finish line?



the jeff buckley syndrome

now before you start thinking this video’s about you and before you try searching the lyrics and see if you can relate, lemme just say “NO, IT AINT ABOUT YOU OR ANYONE.” and before you start thinking that its you im telling that its not about you, DARN IT, you are that vain nga. hahaha ang gulo nu?

anyways, the story is, my player was on shuffle (as usual) and this song popped up and it reminded me of a few things. this is my pal’s (daren) fave song. and i remember bino’s jeff buckley cd used to play nonstop on long sunday drives with the gang. good times good times :D



served upside down or its free!

the weekend. ditched the dive. ditched going home to batangas.

 

binged on blizzards. then more blizzards.

homecoming blues

hey man, its been a while…
i cant even recall when exactly was
the last time i was here.
how are you?
now aint that a stupid question to ask you?
hehe i know youre good.
me? i know you know everything thats
been happening.
all the good stuff. and all the rotten too.
i know youve been watching.
see i might have lost alotta faith in
these guys who say they know you better
and this and that.
but you know i still believe in you.
in my own way, at least.
so hows your mum?
mine was a lil’ ill the last time i came to
see her. watch over her, okay?
she’s been good to you. you know that.
my pop’s a lil’ grumpy these days but
i know you got his back.
and yea, big thanks for tonight…
it was great to see them all again.
btw, you know im just kidding when
i make fun of your various names
when me and the boys are hangin out
by the pool.
we’re still good right?
gotta go man, will try ta drop by
again sometimes…

the bends

today, time of log in: 12:17pm… darn it!

since this year started, i’ve proved to myself that i got tons of discipline inside this deteriorating 80’s human body. i’ve stopped smoking for many months now. stopped drinking alcohol for weeks now. stopped being a jerk to the people around me. stopped eating like a t-rex and lost a few pounds… just a few of what ive been positively altering in my daily biz.

like how my local boss have put it, my tardiness has gone from bad to worse. i’ve been going to work sooo late for weeks now. i wake up early every goddamn morning but still my ass ends up logging in really late. i’m not even sure anymore if i’m just subconsciously sabotaging myself to get fired and be forced to move somewhere else and get a fresh start at things… at everything. a friend said it could be midlife crisis… darn.

the chinese says a crisis has two sides; danger and opportunity. i could be getting both…



nine-inch-nailed-again

As far as I have gone
I knew what side I’m on
But now I’m not so sure
The line begins to blur
