Sonnet 17 by: Pablo Neruda

I was checking out blogs till I saw a quiz in Kuya Wap's blog that said, "Which Poem Are You?" Being a poetry enthusiast myself, or any type of literature for that matter, I decided to take the quiz. As a result, I found out that like my dear cousin and sister, I am Sonnet 17 by Pablo Neruda. This guy is a genius. He has an audio version of Tonight I Can Write read by Andy Garcia. It's just really nice.

Anyway, block away all negative feelings and admire or simply feel what you are about to read. After all, poetry is best words in best order.

Sonnet 17 by Pablo Neruda

I do not love you as if you were a rose made of salt or topaz

or an arrow of carnations spreading fire:

I love you the way certain dark things are loved,

secretly, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you like the plant that never blooms,

but conceals within itself the light of those flowers;

and, thanks to your love, the darkness of my body

houses the suffocating aroma that arose from the earth.

I love you without knowing how, when, or where from;

I love you straightforwardly, with neither problems nor pride:

I love you thus, not knowing how to love you otherwise

than this way whereby neither ‘you’ nor ‘I’ exist…

so close that your hand on my chest is mine,

so close that your eyes grow heavy when I tire.

She Hung the Moon Part 2

I have done something which everyone thought was impossible, but is most definitely possible :D A few minutes ago, Mike and I made a deal. He promised that on Sept. 5, 2006, he will quit smoking :D Yey!!! Remember Mike, I'll hold you to that. On my birthday, you'll be smoke free :D YEY!!! Kuya Wap, you narin :D

When You're Happy and You Know it Shout Hooray!!! HOORAY!!!

Sembreak began last Friday and I started feeling it only a few minutes ago. Well, for starters, after 2 years, I went to Old Girls' Day in Assumption. I was in my highschool uniform and I have to admit, I miss the whole of highschool, even wearing the uniform.

The best part though was I was checking my email and my Philo teacher mailed our grades for our finals. I was so nervous cause my damn internet was taking so long to load the list. I had butterflies in my stomach and then I saw it. Right beside my ID number was the grade 4!!! Ask Ate C, I started crying out of sheer happiness. We all know that Tagalog and I don't mix, and there it was, my A for Tagalog Philo. I can feel a wonderful sembreak coming up. :D

She Hung the Moon...

I'm already at peace. Sem break is near na and I'm so excited. First thing I'm gonna do is hang the moon so I can sleep all day. Hmmm...that's two songs in one sentence. Hehehe. I'm rambling again. I'm just so excited for sembreak, I'm almost on vacation mode.

Anyway, another reason I'm quite excited for sembreak is that I have good memories of sembreak last year. It was actually my most special one. Maybe this year will be just the same, or who knows, maybe even better. Hmmm...I just realized that my license will be one year old on October 21.

At any rate, I just felt like typing my random thoughts while listening to this pretty song, She Hung the Moon. Have a great sembreak everybody!!! We all deserve it after all the sleepless nights. :D

Need A Band-Aid

There's a saying that goes, "the people you love the most are the ones who can hurt you the most." I realized that it is true. It's sad, but true

Last Friday, I really had fun in area, and yesterday, I had fun too although some of the kids were quite violent. I got a slap in the face from a kid named Darwin, but somehow, I wasn't prepared for the non-physical one I got that afternoon.

There are things that shouldn't be questioned. Things that shouldn't even cross a person's mind, but sadly, they do, and I was hurt. I still am. And after telling me all those hurtful things, twisting my words in front of me and deliberately misinterpreting everything i said, hugging me and telling me it's ok isn't gonna cut it for me. I forgive, but I never forget. I wish you had thought before talking because now, things will never be the same.

When I'm in school, all I want to do is go home and forget all the stupid petty problems that come with it, but when I'm home, all I want to do is go back to school and forget all that excess baggage that I have on top of school. Sometimes, my only solitude is with my books and my work. Maybe that's why I'm such a nerd. It makes me feel alive knowing that I can go beyond what I have and all the crap people have been giving me. I guess right now, I'm just shocked and angry at the same time, that such a hurtful thing could be said to me by someone I love. The fact that it was even thought of hurts me more because it only means that you are not secure in my love.
