Ate
Be love lessons from ate:
1. Never let him be your boss, your only boss should be yourself.
2. Never put your life on hold just because you’re waiting for him to grow up.
3. A respectable man will always want to be with a woman who will never let anybody, including himself, walk all over her. If he’s being a jerk, put him in his place gracefully.
4. Action speaks better than words. Don’t say you’ve moved on. Show it through actions. If you feel you were disrespected, don’t nag, just walk away.
5. Never lose your rhythm in life be. I mean, never let go of things you’ve always loved in the first place, like friends, hobbies, routines, just so you can accommodate him. If you do this, you’ll create a void in your life and then you will become needy and expect him to fill in the void.
6. Regret is a waste of time, so never start anything that you know from the very beginning is doomed to be a disaster.
7. Give only what is reciprocated. Never give your all if you feel you’re just given very little.
8. Don’t be “too nice” because you’ll be taken for granted.
9. The only person that you should believe in is yourself. You will feel it if you are being treated badly. If you feel so, don’t try to make excuses for him. You just walk away with your head held high.
10. You deserve nothing but the best, so if you are given anything less than the best, don’t settle.
Di to galing sa quotes or texts. Lahat to be based on experience kaya believe me, okay?
love you lil sis!

I choose to be a teacher no matter what they say because…
July 8th, 2009 by wingardium
1. Through teaching, I learn.
2. I get to meet a lot of interesting people.
3. I get to share whatever knowledge and skill I have.
4. I love seeing people maximise their potentials.
5. There are no words to explain the fulfillment that I get when I see my students/trainees improve and become better.
6. I’m happy to know that when my multinational trainees are in my class, there are no race issues, everyone is helping everyone else, and cultural diversity is no hindrance to make friends.
7. When my students/trainees become successful in their respective careers, they never fail to let me know about their achievements. I feel that their successes are mine too.
8. I feel so good when I know through the look on my students/trainees’ faces that they have realised the value of continuous learning no matter how old they already are.
9. I want to help people know that there is no end to self-improvement and self-discovery.
10. I want my students/trainees know that they can always be better than what they already are and that it’s never too late to be the best that they can be.
11. I get to understand different cultures and ways of life.
12. I get to travel.
13. I like the ambiance of a classroom whether it is in the school setting or company setting. There is something about a classroom that relaxes me. I feel that it’s my niche.
14. Teaching keeps me young at heart and upbeat.
15. I know that when I become old and gray, I will be happy to look back at my younger years and smile because I did what I had to do.
16. I love to read and talk about what I have read.
17. In a classroom everyone tries his/er best to say and do things that make sense and so you hear the best opinions and ideals in a classroom.
18. Creative juices flow in classes.
19. I learn about life through teaching.
20. I want to be remembered as someone who did something to encourage learning.

I'll be gone for a little while (sticky note messages)
Better and safer to leave in the morning, not tonight. Get up at 5am and not a minute later. Believe me; you’ll make it to the office on time.
I know they’re your favorite pair but they need a date with the machine, you’ll look equally dashing in the others, trust me.
You’re not fat. You’re fine the way you are. I don’t mean you should gain more weight though, okay?
Grow your collection of memories. The little printouts are okay.
Comma first before the close quotation mark
Take the carpet to the cleaners, one of these days.
Don’t let them get used to you doing everything in the office. It’s okay to speak out sometimes. Just be tactful.
It’s not girly to get a facial once in a while. Don’t forget to get yours, okay?
When there’s a chance, grow a beard and a mustache. Hehe…
No, you’re not always right but I’m always on your side. I don’t mind losing with you.
It won’t kill you if you say ‘sorry’. Say it when you know you should.
It’s nice that you wash the dishes and refill the water containers when no one asks you to. Keep this up.
Thank you for eating whatever I cook even if they taste bad sometimes.
Don’t be scared to hold them. I’m sure they enjoy the playtimes with you. Make them laugh. Be part of their lives. Teach them when you can. Protect them. They are your princesses for now.
I’m sorry I read your messages and watched that video.
I won’t take it against you if we lost touch.
I’ll miss you big time!
Take care of yourself…

Once and for all
I’ll do what I got to do
Fly to that foreign land
Seize the opportunity
Fulfill that dream of a better life
It’s true, what they say
Not all desires are rational
I’ll do what I got to do
What I want will have to wait
I have, however, come to terms
With Reality, It’s never set
Things happen, people forget
Some love cannot wait
Before Time casts its spell
Once and for all, I’d like to say
Don’t wait, but know that
Forget, I will never
Once and for all
I’ll do what I got to do
Fly to that foreign land
Seize the opportunity
Fulfill that dream of a better life
It’s true, what they say
Not all desires are rational
I’ll do what I got to do
What I want will have to wait
I have, however, come to terms
With Reality, It’s never set
Things happen, people forget
Some love cannot wait
Before Time casts its spell
Once and for all, I’d like to say
Don’t wait, but know that
Forget, I will never

And so it happens...
So love evolves. It's good to have finally realized this. At least, finally I'm done feeling stuck in a situation that left me wanting for more. I have finally accepted the fact that sometimes things are just the way they are. I've gone from loving and wanting to be loved in return, to loving and wanting to be exclusively loved, to loving and wanting to be loved the same way I love, and finally to loving without wanting anything in return except for that person to be happy. And this time, I mean it. I am now ready to let go and be happy myself. And I wish nothing for him but to feel that feeling of unconditional love that I felt for him and to receive it from the same person that he'll feel this way for.
I know it's been a long time since I've updated my blog. A lot of things happened from the time I last posted an article. Good things, bad. Heartaches, love. Friendships. Coming and going. But, most importantly, I have come to terms with myself.
So happiness is really not something that you get from someone else. I finally get this. Happiness is a state of being that only you can make happen for yourself. I am determined to find this.

"Tonight I Can Write" -- Pablo Neruda
Isinalin sa Wikang Tagalog ni Chloe Nina L. Ballesteros
Maisusulat Ko Ngayong Gabi
Ngayong gabi'y maisusulat ko, taludtod ng luha't hinagpis
Tulad ng, "Ang gabi'y natatanglawan ng mga bituing nangungulila, nilalamig; Hinahaplos ng hanging malumanay, umaawit."
Ngayong gabi'y maisusulat ko, taludtod ng hapis at lungkot
Wagas ko siyang inibig, may minsang inibig din niya ako
Sa mga gabing tulad nito yakap ko siya't hinahagkan.
Niyayakap, hinahagkan, paulit-ulit...
Sa lilim ng itim na kumot na wari'y walang dulo,
Walang katapusan
Wagas niya akong inibig, may minsang inibig ko rin siya.
Paanong hindi ka matatangay ng alon ng kanyang mga mata.
Ngayong gabi'y maisusulat ko, taludtod ng walang pagsidlang kalungkutan.
Isiping wala siya sa'king piling. Damhin na kailanma'y 'di na magbabalik.
Dingging ang ulilang gabi, na higit pang binalot ng kahungkagan nang siya'y lumisan.
At ang dula ng taludtod ay maglalandas sa kaluluwa tulad ng hamog sa damuhan.
Anong halaga ng limiing hindi siya mapanitili ng aking pag-ibig.
Ang gabi'y puno ng tala't bituin samantalang wala siya sa aking piling.
Wakas. Tangay ng hangin ang himig mula sa malayo. Sa dako palayo.
Bahagi ng aking kaluluwa'y dinuyan ng hangin kasabay ng kanyang paglisan.
Sinubukan siyang hanapin ng aking mga mata tila upang akayin siya palapit.
Kinapa siya ng aking puso at wala siya sa aking piling.
Ang kakahuyan ay nakakanlaong sa bisig ng gabi.
Walang nagbago.
Kami, nang mga panahong iyon ay 'di na tulad ng nakaraan.
Pawang mga estranghero sa isa't isa.
Ang aking pag-ibig ay nagmaliw, iyan ay tiyak, subalit labis ko siyang minahal.
Sinubukang sumpungin ng aking tinig ang hanging dadama sa kanyang pandinig.
Wakas. Siya ay magiging pag-aari ng iba. Tulad noong bago ko siya mahagkan.
Ang kanyang tinig, ang kanyang katawan. Ang kanyang nangungusap na mata.
Ang aking pag-ibig ay nagmaliw, iyan ay tiyak, subalit maaaring mahal ko siya.
Napakadaling magliyab ng pag-ibig, napakatagal humupa ng usok na kaakibat ng limot.
Sapagkat sa mga gabing tulad nito ay yakap ko siya't hinahagkan
Kaluluwa ko'y nangulila mula nang siya'y mawala.
Kahit ito na ang huling sakit at dusang kanyang ipadarama.
At ang mga ito ang huling taludtod na isusulat ko para sa kanya.

My Favorite John Lennon and Paul McCartney Songs
Woman
John Lennon
(For the other half of the sky)
Woman I can hardly express
My mixed emotions at my thoughtlessness
After all I'm forever in your debt
And woman I will try to express
My inner feelings and thankfulness
For showing me the meaning of success
Ooh, well, well
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Ooh, well, well
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Woman I know you understand
The little child inside of the man
Please remember my life is in your hands
And woman hold me close to your heart
However distant don't keep us apart
After all it is written in the stars
Ooh, well, well
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Ooh, well, well
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Well
Woman please let me explain
I never meant to cause you sorrow or pain
So let me tell you again and again and again
I love you, yeah, yeah
Now and forever
I love you, yeah, yeah
Now and forever
I love you, yeah, yeah
Now and forever
I love you, yeah, yeah

No More Lonely Nights
Paul McCartney
I can wait another day until I call you
You've only got my heart on a string
And everything's a'flutter
But another lonely night might take forever
We've only got each other to blame
It's all the same to me love
'Cause I know what I feel to be right
No more lonely nights
No more lonely nights
You're my guiding light
Day and night I'm always there
May I never miss the thrill of being near you
And if it takes a couple of years
To turn your tears to laughter
I will do what I feel to be right
No more lonely nights (never be another)
No more lonely nights
You're my guiding light
Day and night I'm always there
And I won't go away until you tell me so
No, I'll never go away
Yes I know what I feel to be right
No more lonely nights (never be another)
No more lonely nights
You're my guiding light
Day and night I'm always there
And I won't go away until you tell me so
No, I'll never go away
And I won't go away until you tell me so
No, I'll never go away
