halted

time seemed to stand still
didn't notice it flew so fast
still thinking for the next step
when the allotted time ended
tears wanted to escape
from these angry eyes
it can no longer look
at the demise
can anybody slap me on the face?
or better yet
let me be
that's how it's supposed to be,
estranged from reality.

Poema da buceta cabeluda

Poema da buceta cabeluda

A buceta da minha amada
tem pêlos barrocos,
lúdicos, profanos.
É faminta
como o polígono-das-secas
e cheia de ritmos
como o recôncavo-baiano.

A buceta da minha amada
é cabeluda
como um tapete persa.
É um buraco-negro
bem no meio do púbis
do Universo.

A buceta da minha amada
é cabeluda,
misteriosa, sonâmbula.
É bela como uma letra grega:
é o alfa-e-ômega dos meus segredos,
é um delta ardente sob os meus dedos
e na minha língua
é lambda.

A buceta da minha amada
é um tesouro
é o Tosão de Ouro
é um tesão.
É cabeluda, e cabe, linda,
em minha mão.

A buceta da minha amada
me aperta dentro, de um tal jeito
que quase me morde;
e só não é mais cabeluda
do que as coisas que ela geme
quando a gente fode.

- Bráulio Tavares

How To Make a Move on a Girl While Watching a Movie

"Of all the important things in the world—peace, hunger, poverty—this is pretty much the most important. So listen closely."

for my howcast series ;)

will you die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become a villain?

well, watch the dark knight on friday ;P

is there another storm?

havent watched the local news lately so i have no idea if there is a storm coming today. (i so hope it isnt a storm.) i was home but was supposed to go somewhere. while waiting for my brother to arrive (so i can go out), i played the usual online game. so engrossed playing when i heard a sharp blag in my room. then another in the kitchen, then everywhere. "a brewing storm!" i suddenly screamed  to myself. (i grew up in a province frequented by storms so i knew when there is one.)

i was home alone so i need to close all the windows by myself. too late, the rain came before i was even able to close the first window. then i went out to save the linens still hanging on the clothesline. i was about to get in when the screen door flung itself onto the wall so hard it didnt . that it seemed i heard 

Don't Be A Leaf

this reminds me of high school. we used the same piece but delivered it (boringly) differently. this one i got from youtube is way entertaining! (credit - Lee Glover)

Don't be anything less than everything you can be
by Hal Hackedy, Larry Grossman
(text of the lyrics borrowed from http://www.carlinamerica.com/titles/titles.cgi?MODULE=LYRICS&ID=609&terms=1976)

DON`T BE THE LEAF IF YOU CAN BE THE TREE,
DON`T BE THE RAINDROP IF YOU CAN BE THE SEA.

`CAUSE A LEAF MAY FALL,
BUT THE TREE REMAINS.

IT MAY NEVER RAIN AT ALL,

BUT THE SEA REMAINS;

BETTER TO BE THE TREE AND THE SEA.

SEE?

DON`T BE A CLOUD IF YOU CAN BE THE SKY,

DON`T BE A FEATHER,

BE A BIRD AND FLY.

CLOUDS ROLL BY,

BUT THE SKY ROLLS ON

AND A BIRD CAN FLY

WITH A FEATHER GONE,

BE THE BIRD AND THE SKY

AND THE TREE AND THE DEEP BLUE SEA,

DON`T BE ANYTHING LESS

THAN EV`RYTHING YOU CAN BE!


DON`T BE THE SAIL IF YOU CAN BE THE BOAT.

DON`T BE THE LINING IF YOU CAN BE THE COAT.

IT MAY LOSE ITS SAIL,

BUT A BOAT WILL FLOAT,

AND A COAT WITHOUT A LINING

IS STILL A COAT.

BETTER TO BE THE BOAT AND THE COAT.

QUOTE!

DON`T BE THE STICK IF YOU CAN BE THE DRUM,

DON`T BE THE SUGAR,

BE THE PLUM, BY GUM.

YOU CAN BREAK A STICK BUT THE DRUM WILL BEAT.

WITHOUT A SUGAR COAT,

PLUMS`RE GOOD TO EAT.

BETTER TO BE THE DRUM

AND THE PLUM AND THE COAT

AND THE BIRD AND THE SKY AND THE TREE

AND THE DEEP BLUE SEA;

DON`T BE ANYTHING LESS

THAN EV`RYTHING YOU CAN BE!


DON`T BE THE `MOO` IF YOU CAN BE THE COW.

DON`T BE THE FURROW,

IF YOU CAN BE THE PLOW.

`CAUSE YOU CAN`T GET MILK FROM A `MOO` NO WAY,

AND THE FURROW`S IN A RUT,

BUT THE PLOW`S OKAY,

BETTER TO BE THE COW AND THE PLOW!

NOW,

DON`T BE THE STING IF YOU CAN BE THE BEE,

DON`T BE A TWO IF YOU CAN BE A THREE.

`CAUSE A STING CAN`T MAKE YOU A HONEYBUN,

TAKE TWO FROM THREE AND YOU STILL GOT ONE.

BETTER TO BE THE THREE AND A BEE

AND A COW AND A PLOW

AND A DRUM AND A PLUM

AND A COAT, BOAT, BIRD, SKY, TREE

AND THE DEEP BLUE SEA.

DON`T BE ANYTHING LESS

THAN EV`RYTHING YOU CAN BE!


DON`T BE THE STRING IF YOU CAN BE THE KITE.

DON`T BE THE DARKNESS,

IF YOU CAN BE THE LIGHT.

THO` YOU LOSE ITS STRING YOU CAN FLY A KITE,

BUT WOULD ANYBODY HERE FLY A KITE AT NIGHT?

BETTER TO BE THE KITE AND THE LIGHT.

RIGHT!

DON`T BE THE TAIL IF YOU CAN BE THE DOG,

DON`T BE THE BUMP IF YOU CAN BE THE LOG.

HE CAN WAG HIS TAIL,

BUT IT CAN`T WAG `HE,`

A BUMP WITHOUT A LOG

ISN`T MUCH TO BE.

BETTER TO BE THE DOG AND THE LOG

AND THE KITE AND THE LIGHT

AND THE THREE AND A BEE

AND A COW AND A PLOW

AND A DRUM AND A PLUM

AND A COAT AND A BOAT

AND A BIRD AND THE SKY AND A TREE

AND THE DEEP BLUE SEA!

DON`T BE ANYTHING LESS

THAN EV`RYTHING YOU CAN BE!

Pink - What's Up Live In Wembley - I'm Not Dead Tour

this one's soo cooool.

when later made my day

since i was a night owl, i used to watch television a lot at night (i still do when i cant sleep). there's this interactive game show on a local channel called Games Uplate Live that i have been watching for a while now. im not just sure but i think after i've watched the first season, i decided to register and join the game on the second season. my mom also joined it for a while when she was still in the country. my mom would download so much but we just got no luck for such games. but when Rome, my brother's girlfriend, joined the game last season, she was given a chance to play the day she registered! she said, she's really lucky on being picked on raffles and the likes.

to join the game, first, you need to register. next, download some stuff (i.e. ring tones, logos, etc) and then when your celfone number has been chosen, they would call you and you will be given a chance to answer whatever game is on that particular night. i vaguely remember the game Rome played few months back. i think it's a word game. she was unable to guess the right word but she still got a P300 celfone credit as a consolation prize.

season 5 now and i registered again (since only Smart subscribers will be given the chance to play the whole month of July, ive a better chance now) i downloaded twice last week but then again, no call came. i planned to download on my bday (it might be my lucky day :D ) but we werent home then so i wasnt able to do so. so last night, since it's only hours past my birthday (i might still have the luck) so i downloaded twice. but i accidentally fell asleep shortly after supper. awwness.

i was dreaming a good dream when i was awakened by my half-excited brother, "ABS yata ito, sagutin mo dali." he said as he was holding out my celfone to me. i grabbed the phone and pressed answer. "this is games uplate live, anong sagot mo?", somebody from the other line inquired. since i just got up from a dream, i was at a loss. i ran to the tv and tuned in to channel 2. there were nine letters inside a grid on the screen. i think im good at word find but i was really hyped up and could only make out few words. i asked the lady on the other line "what's the topic of the day?" she answered "basta hula ka lang ng word galing sa jumbled letters sa screen". i saw the word "late" (a word that almost describes me as a person ;P) and said "late" to the person on the other line. and then my brother butted in, "later" na lang. so i asked "pwede po bang baguhin?"

"okay, anong word?"

"later po."

"o sige, pakihinaan ang tv at on air tayo in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1"

i was so happy happy and excited that when Jaymee (the game show host) said hello, i almost forgot that it was the moment i've been waiting for (haha). it seemed like an eternity until i was asked for my name.

"Vaneth Leigh"

"sorry?"

"uhm, you can just call me Lei"

"okay Lei, anong hula mo?

"later"

"paki-spell"

"l-a-t-e-r"

i didnt know that i got the 5-letter mystery word until my brother told me. i think i won a P900 worth of celfone load. it might not be the highest price but watching the show for 5 seasons now, i know that it's a pure luck when you get the answer right so im really grateful. i didnt realize that i can be so talkative on air as i wanted to add up that it was my first time after 3 seasons of watching the show and downloading (i dont think i was able to say that). i think i heard her say that i sound happy so i think i said that it was my birthday the other day and so forth but the line was cut off. oops. i cant actually remember whatever i said on air. i just hope that i didnt sound embarrassing. lol. i didnt receive any notification or anything afterwards.i couldnt even remember where i placed my celfone after that. mein Gott. this is the first time that i won (or even picked) on a raffle/game of chance and the first time that the word "later" has become useful to me.

4 Non Blondes - What's Up

25 years and my life is still
I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
I realized quickly when I knew I should
that the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
for whatever that means
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out what's in my head
And I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
And I take a deep breath
And I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
What's goin' on
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I say hey, what's going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I say hey, what's going on?
ooh, ooh ooh...
And I try, oh my God do I try
I try all the time in this institution
And I pray, oh my God do I pray
I pray every single day for a revolution
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out what's in my head
And I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
And I take a deep breath
Then I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
what's goin' on
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I say hey, what's going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I say hey, what's going on...
25 years and my life is still
I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination.

a sigh

it's so easy
for you
to say
i love
you.
do you ever
mean it
or is it merely
an expression?
i bet
several ears
already heard
the same phrase.
but how
can i erase
these sweet
yet made up
words
that kept
repeating
inside my
achy head.

How To Make a Frozen Margarita

"Thanks to those pre-mixed drinks pumped out of machines at Mexican restaurant chains, the frozen margarita has gained a reputation as the Slurpee of cocktails. But the real thing will have you singing along with the mariachi band in no time."

uhm, just a variation. :D

How To Make a Margarita

"A Dallas socialite named Margarita claimed to have invented this tequila-based favorite back in 1948, although anecdotal evidence suggests the drink was born south of the border. Wherever the seed was planted, the Margarita has blossomed into a global phenomenon."

and i really love it ;P
