7 Random Facts

Instructions: Each player starts with 7 random facts/habits about themselves. People who are tagged need to write on their own blog about their seven things, as well as these rules. At the end of your blog, you need to choose 7 people to get tagged and list their names. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them that they have been tagged and to read your blog! 1. I love to travel and I love to see places. I love learning new things and discover interesting facts about the places I see and the people I meet. I went to Pagudpud, Ilocos Norte a couple of weeks ago and had a lot of fun with some friends. (I exactly remember how amazing it was when I first had my Tour of Ilocos in 2000). I can travel alone or with someone else. Next stop: BICOL! 2. I am just excited to sign the contract of my new property! Whew! Finally fruit of hard work. :) 3. I am learning a new skill - playing the guitar! Tomas (my Guitar) has been there for me always! Coach has been very patient in teaching me....

Love Sonnet XVII by Pablo Neruda

I don’t love you as if you were the salt-rose, topaz or arrow of carnations that propagate fire: I love you as certain dark things are loved, secretly, between the shadow and the soul. I love you as the plant that doesn’t bloom and carries hidden within itself the light of those flowers, and thanks to your love, darkly in my body lives the dense fragrance that rises from the earth. I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where, I love you simply, without problems or pride I love you in this way because I don’t know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep it is your eyes that close.

On Letting Go

Hmmm, more often than not, they who go feel not the pain of parting, it is they who stay behind that suffer, because they are left with the memories of a love that was meant to be, a love that was. At the beginning and at the end of a relationship, we are embarrassed to ourselves alone. Unfair as it may seem but that’s the way love goes. That’s the drama, the bitter, sweet and risks of falling in love. After all nothing is constant but change. Everything will eventually come to its end without us knowing how, without us ever knowing why. And we must forget, not because we want to, because we have to. In letting go, sorrows come not as a single spy but in battalion. It seems like everywhere you go, everything you do, every song you hear, every turn of your head, every move of your body, every beat of your heart, every blink of your eye, and every breath you take will always remind you of him. It is like a stab of a knife, a torture in the night. Funny how the whole world becomes depopul...

Do you care?

Have you really cared for someone more than you expect? Have you ever tried to love him/her despite of all the pain? Will you keep on loving him/her as he/she whispers someone else's name? Will you?

Saying Goodbye

I've had to say goodbye more time that I would have liked. But everyone can say that. And no matter how many times we do even for the greater good it still stings. And though we'll never forget what we've given up, we owe it to ourselves to keep moving forward. What we can't do is live our lives always afraid of the next goodbye because chances are, they're not going to stop. The trick is to recognize when a goodbye can be a good thing, when is the chance to start again.

Earth Hour 2010

Where were you when the lights turned out? I hope you were in relative darkness, which meant, that you too, are involved in the efforts to foster a 'mindset of environmental consciousness and climate change awareness'. I was on my way to Araneta at that hour. Before I left home, I already gave reminded Mama and Papa to switch off the lights and participate in the Earth Hour, and they both agreed. :) I am just happy to see Mommy Luchi and Rhian leading Earth Hour in the office and switching off the lights. I find it fulfilling to participate in such cause. And happy to know that according to Wikipedia, Earth Hour 2010 is reportedly on track to become the biggest Earth Hour yet, aiming to garner more than the one billion participant goal of 2009's Earth Hour. Cool right?

How To Love A Woman

emotera

Hindi ako iiyak. Hindi rin ako mag-kekwento sayo kung gaano akong nasaktan nung iniwan ako ng walang-hiyang **** na yun! Hahaha. Gusto ko lang i-share na wala na ang dating "Jetjet's Life's Little Instructions Blog". Para maiba naman, eto na ang bago kong pangatlong tahanan (una kasi syempre bahay namin, ------ EMOTERA. Interesting. Para sakin, hindi ma-drama or malungkot ang ibig sabihin ng salitang ito. Ang blog na ito ang magsisilbing salamin ng aking kalooban. Madalas mo akong makitang seryoso, mataray, intimidating or maaring masaya, makulit at maingay, at dito mo maririnig ang mga tinig na hindi ko nababanggit. Dito mo masisilayan ang sinasabi ng aking mga mata at dito mo matutunghayan ang mga kahindik-hindik at kagila-gilalas na pakikipag-sapalaran ni Jethsel Allego. :) Here you can listen to my heart and feel my breathe. Naks. Nakakatuwa lang, inspired ulit akong magsulat. Feel ko ulit sumulat ng kung anu-ano, madaming-madami. Sana basahin mo. Very nice. I in...
