name my beagle!

now's your chance to name my 1-year old dog! i've had him for over a month now, i went down to the animal shelter one day during lunch break and there he was. i can't seem to pinpoint a suitable nomme de guerre for him whilst he resides with me, knowing that he's probably had quite a few nicknames from past lives.

i'd greatly appreciate if you could leave a comment with any suggestions. thank you!

"mayumi" nga ba?

hey friends,

i am now accepting votes [poll on your right-->]! c'mon you know you wanna. post comments here. i'd like to know what you think. thanks!

muse - starlight

Far away
This ship is taking me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die

Starlight
I will be chasing the starlight
Until the end of my life
I don't know if it's worth it anymore

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms

My life
You electrify my life
Let's conspire to re-ignite
All the souls that would die just to feel alive

But I'll never let you go
If you promised not to fade away
Never fade away

Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms

Far away
This ship is taking me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die

And I'll never let you go
If you promise not to fade away
Never fade away

Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms
I just wanted to hold

self-experiment: as the human heart suffers

nov 10 is sinta's birthday. it'll be the third straight year that i won't be there to celebrate with him. extremely difficult this year - i was just there a month ago. then christmas will come and it's sadness all over again (3rd consecutive year alone).

what gives? truly, all the money and the gifts could never replace being there in the flesh. time will never give these moments back; sad to say, these are moments of bitter regret that shall forever plague the darkest part of my heart.

i am set on getting married to whomever i'm with when i turn 25. i have to be 75 at most for my 50th wedding anniv. you're all invited. see you all then. :)

survey: how do you enjoy yourself when you're alone?

in the never-ending quest to fight off boredom, i ask the general public the above-mentioned question. what can one really do? what are the simple remedies to loneliness that will allow me to end up keeping a pulse? i'd love to hear you wise suggestions.

on finding e-rrs

why is it that i feel cheesed-out when i look at sap-happy photos of friends in new relationships? ugh. every time i click on a pic, my gag reflex takes over. some women just can't get over the fairytale even if reality bopped her on the head. ending is: see the drama coming soon to a theatre near you...

i was at the pennsylvania dutch market this afternoon where i felt i'd died and gone to heaven. their cakes and shoo-fly pies were nice, plump and juicy. their soft homemade pretzels were the best of any pretzel-erias i've ever gone to. fresh organic produce on sale was enough to keep me at bay, ogling over the selection of tummy-fillers. self-sufficient the amish community is: they make their own food and don't waste scraps too. have you ever heard of pickled watermelon rinds? whoa. and i thought filipinos were frugal enough as it is. tut-tut.
