Six Degrees of Separation

"It's scary how accurate this song is."

You've read the books,

You've watched the shows,

What's the best way no one knows, yeah,

Meditate, get hypnotized.

Anything to take from your mind.

But it won't go, ohhhh ohhh

You're doing all these things out of desperation,

Ohhh ohhh,

You're going through six degrees of separation.

You hit the drink, you take a toke

Watch the past go up in smoke.

Fake a smile, yeah, lie and say that,

You're better now than ever, and your life's okay

When it's not. No.

You're doing all these things out of desperation,

Ohhh ohhh,

You're going through six degrees of separation.

First, you think the worst is a broken heart

What's gonna kill you is the second part

And the third, Is when your world splits down the middle

And fourth, you're gonna think that you fixed yourself

Fifth, you see them out with someone else

And the sixth, is when you admit that you may have fucked up a little

(Oh no there ain't no help, it's every man for himself)

(No no there ain't no help, it's every man for himself)

You tell your friends, yeah, strangers too,

Anyone who'll throw an arm around you, yeah

Tarot cards

Gems and stones,

Believing all that shit is gonna heal your soul.

Well it's not, no, wohhhh

You're only doing things out of desperation,

Ohhh ohhh,

You're goin' through six degrees of separation.

First, you think the worst is a broken heart

What's gonna kill you is the second part

And the third, Is when your world splits down the middle

And fourth, you're gonna think that you fixed yourself

Fifth, you see them out with someone else

And the sixth, is when you admit that you may have fucked up a little

No there's no starting over,

Without finding closure, you'd take them back,

No hesitation,

That's when you know you've reached the sixth degree of separation

No there's no starting over,

Without finding closure, you'd take them back,

No hesitation,

That's when you know you've reached the sixth degree of separation

First, you think the worst is a broken heart

What's gonna kill you is the second part

And the third, Is when your world splits down the middle

And fourth, you're gonna think that you fixed yourself

Fifth, you see them out with someone else

And the sixth, is when you admit that you may have fucked up a little

Sino ang Masa

Ito ang kauna-unahang kong tula na naisa-publiko gamit ang internet. 
Ito ay naisulat bilang sagot sa kantang "Theme from Noontime Show" ng bandang Itchyworms. Hindi ako sang-ayon sa kanta nila at sawang sawa na akong marinig ang mga taong lagi na lang sinisisi ang masa. At isa pa, peyborit ng lola ko si Willie. Mwehehehe. 
Unang naisulat itong mga tugmang ito noong 2007 sa rakista.com v1 Literature Forums. Nakakatawa lang kasi yung isa sa miyembro ng bandang ito ay mapapanood na ngayon sa isa sa pinakasikat na noontime show sa bansa. ~this is your show, this is your time.~

Sino ang masa?
Ang masa ba ay mangmang?
Ang masa ba ay bayaran?
Siya ba ang dahilan
sa pagkalugmok at kahirapan?

Sino ang masa?
Ito ba ang karamihan?
Kabilang ba ako sa
tinuturing na latak ng lipunan?

Sino ang masa?
Kailan mo masasabing di ka
isa sa kanila?
Kapag ba mayaman ka?
Kapag ba naiiba ang iyong musika?

Sino ang masa?
Sila ang sinisisi
Ngunit ang mga kandidato,
tuwing eleksyon sa kanila kumakampi.

Sino ang masa?
Ikaw.
Ikaw na nandidiri sa kanila.
May nagawa ka na ba para
mabago ang sistema?

Sino ang masa?
Sila ay mga bayani.

Bago sa pandinig hindi ba?
Ang masa ay mga bayani.
Pagkat ano pa ang mas dadakila
sa pagsalo ng masalimuot na bungang
kasaysayan ang may sala.

KPOP

I only had 2 hours of sleep and I want to rest so bad but I found myself in the middle of a crowd of screaming young girls singing and dancing to songs they don't even understand. WTH am I doing here. Sure, I like Girls Generation but it's too late when I realized that I don't like them this much.

There is no way out so I just decided to enjoy myself and watch the fan girls and fan boys go crazy over their favorite KPOP singers. Then, I asked myself why the popularity of our local girl and boy groups couldn't match to these Korean talents. Come to think of it, I actually couldn't remember any Filipino boy or girl group that made it's mark. Hmmm.. No, I don't think the Mocha girls count.

These KPOP groups have the charisma, the good looks, and yeah, the talent. Well, the charisma more than the other two.

Girls Generation a.k.a SNSD is the last one to perform with only 5 songs. Bitin! Given my 4 feet 11 inches height and my general admission ticket, I could barely see them. While they are performing, I asked myself again, WTH am I doing here. I realized that I only watch concerts because of the live music and I don't like KPOP songs, I just like how they look. Oh well, I guess I am better off watching them on Youtube. SNSD said they are coming back here on summer but nah.. no more KPOP for me. =P

Fan boys and Fan girls

Hyoyeon, my favorite member of SNSD coz she has the least number of fans

2013

And the most generic first blog post for 2013 would be a New Year's resolution. So this part would be me explaining the significance of new beginnings, how 2012 was a good year and that 2013 will be a better year and all that stuff but I'll just get right into it. I am posting this as a reminder to myself of the 3 simple things I'll do more often this year.

1. Be kind to myself and others.
2. Be more impulsive.
3. Talk.
