Star Wars 3.5

What is so great about all Star Wars movies is that they always have that amazing twists in every plot and always have deep and meaningful lessons.

Rouge 1, I think, is the thin line that links the story of Star Wars 3 : Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars 4 : A New Hope.

May the force be with us.

The Allusion of the Songs I Write

P.s. Every year on this day (Rizal day), I always post something about patriotism. Well, aside from the fact that it is the Philippines' National Hero's day, but also because I look up to Jose Rizal since I learned about him in our history class when I was in grade school.

But this post is somehow different from the previous years because this post is about a love untold. I'm posting it today because once in our lifetime, we encounter someone whom we took for granted and later realize that he was once became a hero... once upon a time in our own life.

This is a post about an untold love... for I believe that heroes are brave because they LOVE... Heroes sacrifice because of LOVE...
Heroes became heroes because of LOVE.


Ambiguous...
Blurry...
Half fiction...
Half fact...

For it is in the art of allusion that I could express all the suppressed feelings I have for you.

From the 3 am blogging up to Paul and John comparing.
From holding hands up to parting.
From Anakin up to Don McLean.
From Across the universe up to Imagine.

It was never my intention to hurt you nor to ignore your feelings towards me. I was just a coward girl. Too coward to love you because I believed in what others told me that in loving a person, it is inevitable even in the midst of innocence, to hurt them.
And because loving can hurt...
I thought I can save you from that pain by suppressing my feelings towards you.
I didn't love you back because I was scared I might hurt you, I was scared to hurt you because I don't want to lose you, I don't want to lose you because... I LOVE YOU.

So forgive me if I loved you that much that I'd rather deny this feelings...

But believe me... I suffered more than you'll ever know for not letting you know that I loved you too.

Forgive me for turning my back to you twice...

And all I can do now is ask "what if ".
Love you secretly for we can never be... now.

I know you're Happy...
I hope you're Happy...

Til then... you will always be... My music...
My playlist...
My John Lennon...
My Dawson...
My Jedi...
My lullaby...
My old school...
My rock and roll...
My Beatles...
My Strepsils...
My a Walk to Remember...
My own Back to December...
My hardest fight...
The allusion of the songs I write.

Christmas Anthem of the Braves

It is brave to admit your faults but I believe that it is braver to forgive. And it is the bravest to forgive someone who never even asked for forgiveness.

Grudge can only consume the heart, and the heart that holds it will always lose. Like a curve blade you hold pointing at your enemy.

So this holiday season, I wish everyone to be brave enough to forgive and share kindness. After all, no one is faultless not to need forgiveness as well.

Let us free ourselves from grudges and hatred and let love reign in our hearts and bring forth kindness in every corners of the world.

Have a wonderful Christmas and a blessed New year!!!


With overflowing love,

Amidst the friction and chaos all around me, am still thankful for all the blessings.

Back to back to back.

To God be the glory!

Second Direction : Break a Leg

This year, it is my second time to (again) direct, write the script (including the music and lyrics) of another musical Christmas play.

I'm hopeful this year that, again, this musical play will bag another award.
Actually, I'm hoping for a back to back prize.

So much for my hopes, but yes, I could still remember how hard it was for me last year to convince the producers to support my play, because the truth is, no one believed in me last year. Not a single soul aside from mine. I've got a lot of discouragements and criticisms from everyone telling me that I will never gonna make it. But I strived. Making the lowest possible budget for the play. And when finally I've got a 98% score from the judges, that's when everyone seemed to be supporting me all the way. Not that I'm holding grudges, I'm just saying it as a matter of fact.

Anyway, as pressure starts to sprout inside me, I just would like to thank everyone who supported me... thank you for your contribution to my confidence. And to those who did not believe in me, those who discouraged and criticized me, thank you also because you made me stronger.

So to wrap up this holiday season, I wish everyone a blessed Christmas.

Thoughts in the Shower

There's no religion nor race greater than HUMANITY for it takes compassion and kindness to be human.

I say COMPASSION and KINDNESS...

Yes, compassion and kindness and NOT LOVE.

I don't want to question the depth and entity of love per se, but that same love that ignites the flame in your heart is also the same flame that brings smoke into your eyes that makes your way blurry.

For in a battle, there is no right nor wrong, just two opposite sides that both love the people behind them, hence, they fight those who are in front of them.

Most of the time... that love that teaches us to love each other is the same love that teaches us to fight for love. Ironic isn't it?

And most of the time, it is NOT hatred that causes war... but TOO much love.


The ironies of Love and it's imperfections... enlighten me if you can.
