"Stuck in -ESREVER-"
I feel so tired today. So many work to be done but it seems I’m not in my 100% enthusiasm. So much work, yet less compensated. Haaaayy! I just don’t know if I wrote the right words that would describe my feelings right now. I need the money badly, my gawd! What am I saying!? But nonetheless I really need the money for so many things. No! It’s not what you think. I totally need some cash right now to solve problems.

“Fix”
It really took some time for me to let Cold Play’s X & Y album sink into me. As expected I only appreciated the last 2 albums after listening to it for a while. Maybe it’s their trademark. Not lot like other songs that really get your attention that fast. I just love the words of Chris Martin. The song “Fix you” caught my attention first. The fact that it has wonderful lyrics, (which I always look for in a song) the way it sounds, and the progression of the song adds’ up to the totality of it being a hit. The lyrics just hit me bulls’ eye and the music just makes it more believing that the words used in the lyrics really came from the heart. Now, I dosed my self listening to “fix you” again and again. Then I started picking up my guitar and started playing the song. In a matter of minutes I began playing the major chords of the song. That went on for almost a week as seen on my last blog about Cold Play. Then I started listening to other tracks of the album and noticed there is a hidden track included. Then it dawned on me how wonderful the X & Y album is. Really! Some songs included gives a makes-me-want-to-cry feeling and at the same time the feeling of failing and winning at the same time for after all these feeling just reminds us that we are just humans. We live; we die, but death does not end it because we leave our legacy behind. We laugh, we cry, we love, we hate, but its all part of being human, to be imperfect, to have defects. These imperfections gives spice in our very life. If we are born perfect, then there is no reason why we should stay in this imperfect world. Because the truth is, we need someone to balance these imperfections in one way or another. We look for this special entity that would balance our life. The one that will let us cry but then make us laugh, the one that let’s us know what is hate and love and its difference. The one that will make us know how it feels to be lonely but also knows how to give us serene happiness. Well that’s just me. I know reaching this part is quiet difficult for you. Am I being boring? Boring or not boring, I guess it’s part of my imperfection in writing this entry. So here is another line from Cold Plays “What if” from X & Y album:
What if there was no light
Nothing wrong, nothing right
What if there was no time
And no reason or rhyme
What if you should decide
That you don't want me there by your side
That you don't want me there in your life

"Saturday night!"
First of all, the pictures. Here is a link of our pictures taken last November 3-4, 2005 in our Laguna outing.
Click here!
Another Saturday night out. I was out late Saturday night with my friends again. Sorry there are no pictures taken on that night. And YES! I was out again after the longest time. Yes again, I was with my buddy Tonyo. It was not the usually Saturday night in Malate. Its almost 1 AM but still there were so many people walking around Nakpil and Adriatico Streets in Malate. As usual, we always love to go clubbing. We love club music that time of day. My friend was pissed after staying for almost an hour in Common Ground because the DJ keep on playing tunes we don’t usually dig. I think the DJ has a different genre on that time. He keeps on playing somewhat of a tribal thingy. So after a couple drinks we headed for Clubbers Guide down stairs. I think I got a Smirnoff and a beer during that time. Clubbers Guide is Jam packed with people. Now what do we do? We usually stay on the Bar. As I would always say to my friends, “It’s a F**king BAR!” Nobody stays that long on that place. Well the night just started to unfold on me. House music was playing loud with kicking bass. I’m started to feel the groove when this chick caught my attention. She was looking at me straight in the eye from across the bar. I just didn’t mind her cause I was thinking is just usual for chicks to be as straight and forward on that place. Well, I think she’s really hot. I mean, I haven’t been out for so long and I missed those kinds of look. Then the night went along as house and club music fills the place with people dancing carelessly to the tune. My friends got a place to sit so I immediately followed them. Then again I saw the same girl. Yes, much closer and much better to see. She was just wearing a pair of jeans and a baby tee. I don’t know what made me stare at her that long. Maybe because looking on something nice and beautiful is really GOOD. It was that moment when suddenly you look at someone and when you look at her she was already looking at you. Then I suddenly felt something after seeing her looking at me. It was like giving it up. These things happen to me but I always look and stare back, but this one is different and I don’t know why. After a few seconds, I then again have another look on this chick. Then, I saw her dancing. Wow she was so hot. I just don’t know, but it was kind of a seductive move what she was doing. And it worked on me. At the back of my mind I know she is doing it on purpose. My senses came and took me to the next level of this euphoric state of mind. You see, I don’t know this chick but it took only a single move to bring me to a different place. She was dancing wildly. It was like I look at her dancing and everything is just a blur, even the sound. You get the picture. The only thing I see clearly was her dancing and everything was just a background, even the sounds. Wow! What a rush. And really I was enjoying watching her dancing that way. All the right moves. Then I suddenly saw this tattoo on her. As her shirt went up while moving I saw her tattoo. Then my senses came back. I don’t have anything against tattoo, in fact I like them, but that really didn’t fit the picture. Got it! I don’t know this chick but she made me feel something I haven’t felt in a long time. BLISS!

"Coldplay's X & Y"
Finally I got a hold on this album yesterday. I was suppose to put links and pictures of my last trip with my officemates in laguna here, but I'm so much in a hurry today. Actually it's just my lunch break and I'm just listening to X & Y now while doing this. I was really looking forward on listening to Coldplay's new album back then, but havent got the chance to until yesterday. I was struck by the words Chris Martin used on the song "Fix you". Here is a google search for the lyrics. It has more impact to me how Martin sings the song. Makes me want to "cry" or have the feeling of being "Helpless" and at the same time "Feel good" about it because after all we are just human. I'll higlight the words thats has impact on me.
Fix You
When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
I will try to fix you
Tears stream down on your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down on your face
And I
Tears stream down on your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down on your face
And I
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
"What do you think?"

"Back to work"
After a week long semestral break, tomorrow is back to work. New challenges I see. New challenging work I expect. Well I had fun on this one week vacation. We and the library staff went to Laguna. Expect pictures in my nest post. By the way I added something on my sidebar some kind of slideshow, enjoy!
