THOUGHTS AND NOT SO SIMPLE THOUGHTS

the crowd....
the trees....
the building...
the ambiance...


travelling for hours every day and looking at the same soothing views excites me most. the river that i pass by makes my thoughts go back in time as to where, six years ago, me and my friend, have to trod everyday of our lives in Tayug. and why not? i really enjoy the moments riding at the back of the motorcycle and having the view full in my eyes, with all the rain water on my face, and yet i could really hear myself laughing at the childish experience.


what is really amazing is that, when i came back to the school that has given me much opportunity to enhance my knowledge and talent, the place has changed a bit... and the town was almost unrecognizable. many were called but few agreed to stay, as they say, it has been a backward little town on the east of my province, but they were all proven wrong. malls had been erected, and there were some fastfood chains to boast. but that those were just some of the treats that this town would give.


when i first stepped on the campus, it is still the same that i have left years ago, but there are buildings, new and i could still smell the aroma, if that is what may i call it, of the cement. the building is roughly made, yet habitable, but with the efficient management, in a year or two, it would be much of use, and with facilities to boast.


i could still imagine the garter snakes falling to a crowd of women talking and sharing their lives one afternoon,when the winds suddenly blew hard, and with that, they just laugh it off without even being scared by the thought. or during the rainy and stormy days, pupils would bathe in the rain and play on the stacked rain waters in front of their classrooms, happily, and innocently. it is still fresh in my mind, us, the male faculty members would love to stay at the makeshift house made of light materials such as bamboos and corrugated galvanized iron, but still we are happy with it...as we could do nothing but to stay. the thought of going to attend the daily mass before going to attend my class is such an adventure for me, for, rain or shine, i would not fail to do so. there is so much more to tell.


i was so saddened when the school administration have said that i would be re-assigned to the campus after six years of being at the main. the thought of leaving the people that i have learned to love and to care for, and the students who have become my friends eventually, was the initial reaction to the pronouncement. but in a way, it had become a challenge for me. i just thought that everything has its reason and purpose.


and when the classes started, i was so surprised that the students were still warm in the welcome, as well as the faculty members were so warm and pleasing. i thought, i could adjust to the renewed environment easily, and i am slowly making a success to that.


i am enjoying the sights. i am enjoying the feel. i am enjoying everything. when it seems that everything is in its lowest, i will just think that i am going to make it. that is positive thinking. that is what my attitude is. i will never be alone because i am with friends to cheer me up, and i am with the nature. it is cool. it is wonderful. it is warm all at the same time.

i just want you to know


you came into my life
so unexpectedly
i never thought that one day
i am going to meet someone like you


it was all of a sudden
when you gave your first word
a simple Hi
and it started


we exchanged
words of endearments so true from our hearts
and from that moment
we got to know each other


when i saw you
i had the feeling you might not like me
but my fears subsided
when you said you love me the way i am


i can not afford to lose someone like you
you made my life complete
you made me smile again
by the way you smile at me


i feel like am 17 again
i am old but age does not matter to you
perhaps we are destined
to love one another forever


i love the way glance at me longingly
i love your simple ways of caring for me
i love everything about you
you make my world spin


i would like to treasure what is now
i do not like to think about the future
i like to see the fullness of love
and my dreams would be completed


i love you, stay the way you are
i thank you for everything that you do
you are my life, you are my soul
you make this world of mine complete.


it is you that i have been waiting for so long.....

my wonderful puppy
named Snowy
she had been a joy of my life
full of strife.

then came one day
in the month of May
i came home and lay
only to find out of my Snowy....
she's dead, uttered my sister, so sorry
i could'nt speak, and how could it be?
when i left home she's bright and gay...

ahh. that is real mystery
of this, full of misery...
i just hope
that  if dogs go to heaven
i will meet her there one day.....
