It’s been awhile since my last post eh? Yeah, 2008 for me is kinda sad. Too many ups and downs, well mostly downs, especially with my love life. Over the past months, I’ve been through a lot, I mean a lot. It even affected my work, my everyday routines, my hobbies, almost everything. Things have happened on my personal life, sad things, that I felt I can’t handle. I’ll admit that I’ve been depressed, bitter, angry and confused as to why those things have happened to me, my love life. But God has reminded me of one phrase that our pastor and my family has been saying, God never gives us more than we can handle.

No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it. -1 Corinthians 10:13 (New International Version)

I know these problems will come to pass with the help of God, there’s no one I can turn to but Him. Things have happened when me and my girlfriend broke up, things that we thought could make us better persons, make us grow, but I was confused as to why they happen, mostly sad things. I know God has a plan behind all this, as the Bible says, God causes all things to work together for good.

I’m still on track of my plans, I never lose hope that someday we would end up together again. But I feel it’s not yet time. Experiences in life makes us grow, make us more mature and there’s more things I know would make us more better persons. You’re probably confused to what I am saying, my mind is not that stable now-a-days. I just make diversions to not think of those problems always.

New year, new beginning. I have to make myself better first, I want to loose weight, so that might be the first thing I would do to make me a better person. I’m 24 yet I feel there’s so much to learn in life. I would like to thank all those people who are close to me for being part of my life, espeically Daisy for being there to listen to me when I’m down, I’ve never regreted I chose you to be my closest friend whom I can share my ups and downs, thank you fren.

Well, that’s all about my 2008 and I’m now embracing 2009 with wishes of more blessings, health and hapiness.

Sometimes you’ve got to go through the pain, to experience the joy.

You probably wondered why I hate text messages. Well, not all the time though, ’cause it’s cheap and that’s the only thing I can afford, calling is way too expensive for me. Now, why do I hate text messages sometimes? Simple, sometimes it ends up into misunderstanding. You know what I mean? You don’t know what’s the other side’s or the recipient’s reaction/feeling would be. Not just that, you can’t be sure that the recipient receives the messages. It says “Sent” on your end but there’s no assurance that it was received by the other side. Kinda disappointing sometimes. Could lead into an argument. Then argument leads into a fight. I really hate that. It’s funny that you argue with someone about something that’s too shallow.

I just had a “text” argument with my ex, she’s saying I didn’t sent something. But I did, it was on my “Sent items” folder, but she’s pushing it that she didn’t received it. How come eh? She even replied. Now, she’s accusing me that she’s tired of waiting for me to ask her out? Well, maybe she’s just “overwhelmed” on the thought that I usually don’t make a move for something, no sense of starting up something or whatever you call it. *Sigh*, let’s just forget it. We usually end up like this when were still together.

I wish text messages have feelings, and I hope networks who provide it is reliable enough for this. I’m sure I’m not the one who’s experiencing this. Lives can be destroyed because of it. Not that I’m exaggerating, I’m just expressing what I feel about text messages. I’m just disappointed today and I’m not in the mood at work now. *Sigh*. I NEED MUSIC!

All of us need this, but most of us don’t wanna do this ’cause it’s something tiring with all the movements you’ll need to do for it. I’ve never done this for a very long time, and it feels so good after doing it. The pumps up and down, forward and backward, sideways are kinda tiring and kinda makes your heart beat faster and faster every time. And the sweat feels like you’re loosing calories.

No, not that silly, you’re just too green minded. I’m talking about Tae Bo! Yeah, it really is tiring especially for the first time you do it, and you’ve never exercised recently ’cause of work. Dang! it really feels good. I can’t somehow feel my legs now, it’s refreshing. Knowing that I’m too fat now, and I really need to exercise, Tae Bo might be a good idea. So I looked it up on Youtube, there might be some vids there, and yeah I found one. It’s for cardio exercise so it’s fun, the beat and moves really makes you pumping and sweat.

The reason why I am not doing this before is, I feel shy going to the gym for this. And not only that, most of the men going to an aerobics gym is tagged as gay, you know what I mean? So I might do this everyday after work, AT HOME. Hehe. And you should too! Even if you’re not as fat as I am, we all need exercise to look great and FEEL great!

We do all have our first experiences on something, and we all know too that first experiences are the ones that are unforgettable, memorable, haunting, you know, those cherished moments when you first held and enjoyed something that you love very much, it’s just remarkable.

I remember when my mother bought our 14″ Sony Trinitron TV, I was like 7 or 8 years old. As a kid, I was addicted to it. Ever since my Mom bought our Sony Trinitron TV, I go home early after school, you know what I’m saying? No more playing and strolling around the neighborhood. It’s a good thing right? I get to go home early back then! Hehe.

I can still remember like, when I’m still at school, I really look up to one specific time in the afternoon, 4:30. After school, I rush up going home and wait for that moment that I could finally shout, “4:30 na! Ang TV na!” Hahaha, I really enjoyed doing that and I cherished those moments together with our Sony colored TV.

You know what’s the treasured part on my first experience with our Sony colored TV? Ever since my Mom bought it, she and my Grandma told me, “So there you go, we bought that TV so you wouldn’t stroll to our neighbors anymore and stay out late, we won’t be worried of you anymore” and I said “Thank you Mom, Grandma.” and then I hugged them tight kissed them both on the cheeks. I’ve made them smile and hugged and kissed me back. Since then, I go home early just watching my favorite TV show and cartoons. Until now, our Sony colored TV is still working and used at our small store.

It definitely gave significance in my life just like the Sony’s World’s first Noise Canceling Portable Music Player. Now I can listen to my favorite music without being disturbed.

Whew! Well, to some people, this is easy but to others like me, it’s kinda hard. I mean really, I don’t know where to start, what to start, although I finished 1 song, yeah 1 song, heh. It’s called Adik Sa Kape or in English, Coffee Addict. You can play it by clicking the link on the post. The song is about 2 friends talking about love, heartbreaks and all, and instead of beer, they drank and drank coffee ’till morning. Heh, the song is kinda funny though I wrote it seriously. We had no beer around that time, so what we saw is coffee and hot water, we just needed to talk and you know, spit out those things that has to be spit out, you know what I’m saying? Heh.

Anyway, before we go out of track, writing songs isn’t that easy for me. If my best friend wasn’t there to strum the strings a bit, I wouldn’t finish the song. For me, I really need someone to help me finish a song, with the guitar at least. I mean, I know how to play instruments, but I can’t seem to concentrate when I’m playing while I’m writing. It’s kinda hard. Heh. But, if someone is playing while I’m writing, everything seems be smooth, while playing, lyrics come of my mouth just like talking normally, that’s how I finished that song, just started few words for verse, then everything comes smoothly after that, popping out and rhyming and all. It’s kinda cool.

I really hope I can learn how to write songs just by myself. Although I’ve written some lyrics, (I’ve already started so many lyrics but haven’t finished them) but they aren’t songs yet. Still needs rhythms and melodies, you know. Well, I just shared my experience on writing songs, how do you write your songs?
