Breakfast by the Beach

Have you ever felt being totally safe with that someone? That somehow, all your fears disappear when your with him?

Recent but very memorable. Not to mention the ambiance was so romantic.

April 20, 2008.

Sunday.

He fetched me at exactly five in the morning. We passed by the marketplace to buy tsokolate and puto. I brought a glass and a fork. We then went to Dawin which is approximately 12 kilometers away from city proper. But we got lost in Bacong. Nevertheless, we were able to watch the sunrise from the seashore.

We finally found the place after a few minutes. It was called "Lowlands". If you set foot on the place, you won't wonder why they called it such. But it was a nice place. We rented a table which we didn't really use. We laid his sleeping bag over the sand and we ate. It was followed by a very heart to heart conversation. As always,i enjoyed talking to him.

He gave me a sort-of scrapbook plus both out pictures in it. He knew i loved pictures of nature, especially sunrise and sunset. This is actually one of our many common interests. He compiled a lot of great pictures he took in his many travels. It was really nice. He gave that as an advanced birthday present. Think about ADVANCED.

I was home by nine or ten in the morning. I really forgot. lol.

I'm actually doing this to make sure i never forget this day. To make sure i can always come back and reminisce knowing that i actually have a short-term memory and a brain that just works efficiently under pressure.

And for the answers to my questions above. I'd have to say yes. I've found a great friend in him and for that i'm utterly proud to have him. n_n

Serenade: A Dream Come True

Thu, 14 Feb 2008 15:29:51 +0000

hmmm....

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!

I really didn't expect anything special today. I didn't even wear red, i was in green and i didn't dress in a special way.

I never thought, one of my greatest dreams would come true today.

He asked me if he could drop by at our house by 7 or anytime before 10 in the evening to greet me since he hasn't done that yet even if we did see each other that morning. I said yes.

But i dozed off at around seven in the evening. My aunt just woke me up at around 9:30 and i found out he was waiting outside for almost half an hour already under the rain.

Guilt electrified my being. How evil of me. Tsk tsk. I ran outside with an umbrella and ushered him to our balcony where he led me to a chair and ran back outside.

I was startled but at this point i was smiling really wide i think i could've resembled a toad. lol. Then i saw 4 other men. They were actually his barkadas and they were carrying 2 guitars.

They sang two songs for me "Don't Want the World to See Me" and "Guardian Angel". After the serenade itself, he gave me a rose. We talked for a while then they left and i was left with a smile.

This has been the best gift i've ever received on Valentines Day. He knows that i really dream of being serenaded and he actually told me to wait for a while for he doesn't sing that well.

I always say that the sweetes thing a guy could do for me is serenade me even if it's not really his thing. They sounded good by the way and i just can't sleep.

P.S. Another one called me after they left and also sang for me the song "Tears in Heaven".

Please try to answer this. thank you!

I happened to pass through my previous blog entires. Some of them were like from 2 years ago when i was still in year 2 in HS. I came past this one.

"My heart is alone but i know it knows the truth, my mind does have many companies but i am not sure if it's right. I don't know how or why he says this and doesn't even remember it. So, i just thought, the moment he tells me "I love You", after a time would he also forget he did? He tells me he does but his action says otherwise."

-July 27, 2005

I can't believe my words. It struck me so much. Back from when i wrote this, my close friends were telling me to break up with him but my heart insisted. I don't know how i got through that time, all i know is that i was in love, maybe too much in love.

I think i wrote this when we quarreled because he doesn't remember one thing he told me. I wonder, time took its toll, we broke up. After these time, now that he's in love with somebody else, does he still remember the times he told me he loves me?

After reading some of my entries, i felt like crying and i didn't want to suppress it. Stupid as it may seem, i watched the music video i made for him before i left and i realized something, my heart still ached so much. I started to sob endlessly, i couldn't control myself. Then i was relieved of the numbness i've imposed on myself to stop the hurt, to stop the drama, you know, just to get me through.

Pain made me numb.

Pain made me hurt.

Pain makes me numb again, for if it won't, i won't be able to go on...

Be strong eunice, i know kaya mo yan...

same old words...

i often repeat to myself...

i just need to talk to someone...

anyone...

Reaction Paper: Inherit the Wind

INHERIT THE WIND
A Reaction Paper

I-Intro: Summary of the Story

Bertram T. Cates, a high school Biology teacher in the town of Hillsboro, Tennessee was put behind bars for teaching Charles Darwinâs evolution theory to his class. He had broken the state law not permitting the teaching of the theory of evolution.
He was then sent to trial, defended by an atheist Attorney Henry Drummond from Chicago. Attorney Matthew Harrison Brady speaks for the other side of the court. The courthouse seems to be always in a hot debate with both Attorneys speaking in defense of their side and of their own personal belief. They talked about the pros and cons of teaching the Darwinâs theory. I remember Drummond asking if knowledge of the theory has caused trouble for Catesâ students and I if it made the witness which was Catesâ student become an unloving bad person. Of course he got no for an answer. Now, on the other hand, Brady speaks of knowledge of Darwinâs theory as something that wrecks and destroys oneâs faith in God and his image. Both are actually good speakers exchanging philosophical and sarcastic remarks about the case.
Rachel Brown, Catesâ fiancÃ©e gets stuck between the love of her life and her father. Her father, town minister Rev. Jeremiah Brown is very obsessed with his religion. He looks insane already. At one time, he even told the people that obedience to Godâs will and words is necessary because punishment awaits the one who breaks it. He talks about all sorts of punishments like lightning. She even damns her own daughter to hell, which really saddened dear old Rachel.
One day in court, Rachel was called to the witness stand; she had spurted a lot of things to Attorney Brady, and at the very moment could be used against Cates. She, in the witness stand, talked about how Catesâ started to lose his faith in religion. She spoke of a boy that was drowned in the river. In the funeral mass, Rachelâs father spoke of the boy not being able to enter heaven because he was not baptized. This angered or I think disappointed would be a lot more appropriate term that he stopped going to church and started teaching the Charles Darwin Theory to his students. He actually said that it was not a revolt against their religion, it was more of giving knowledge and making sure his students wouldnât be ignorant of such. But Rachel, with too much pressure and fear just started to cry in the stand. And as much as Attorney Drummond would still like to question her, Catesâ stopped him and even threatened him if he still insisted.
The last part I saw was when Drummond lost his temper and started babbling courageously in front of the court after the judge announced a prayer meeting in court. Drummond found this unfair because it seemed like right then and there, the judge shows that he favors the other side. The judge then became hot tempered and got him into jail with a bail but a farm and a bank owner says they will bail him out with all that theyâve got which we believe are connected to that boy Rachel was talking about.

II- Discussion of 2 issues in the story

â¢ I remember Brady talking about the knowledge of Darwinian Theory can pollute the minds of the students, considering how young they are. That these students, he supposed would turn their backs on God and turns bad. Basically, he says that the law just doesnât want the citizens to turn bad. Drummond on the other hand, asks one of Catesâ High School students if the knowledge he gained from Catesâ class has done any harm to him, if it caused him physical pain or injury. He even asked if after a class about the Darwinian Theory, he goes home not loving God and his family any more. Then the boy answers that it didnât cause him any harm and he still loves God and his family very much.
â¢ Another issue is the state law itself. Brady laughs at the thought that we came from those monster looking creatures taught in Darwinian Theory. He even got mad saying that it is an insult on us man and in Godâs creation. He said that we humans are special creations of God. Whereas Drummond speaks of the beauty of knowledge and the cons of ignorance. The real monsters are those that misinterpret Godâs words and those people that consider only their interpretation of the bible as correct.

III- Own opinion on the issues stated above

â¢ Take me as a student for example, Iâve been taught science extensively which was like for the longest time. Iâve even had religion classes for four years only in High School because we didnât have religion classes in my elementary school. I didnât turn out to become an atheist; I even have a great faith in my God. I mean, how on earth these scientific facts would make you do bad things, theyâre actually each individualâs choice. Good things are not limited to reading the bible everyday, or attending prayer meetings or worshipping Him every second of our lives. For me, showing love and care for other people and unselfish giving means more than all the rituals and traditions of the world. They are basically just practices, what really matters are the spirit, the reason, the message, the love behind these practices that we must keep at heart. In addition to everything Iâve said, all that I learned about science, made me love God more. The Darwinian Theory shows how God made us complex and gave us the ability to adapt to our environment to continue to live. I look up to him on how he created the world, just amazing. Now, isnât that a proof of Godâs love and wit?
â¢ The first thing that came into my mind when Brady laughed at us coming from Apes and creatures like that is that he is a very proud old man. Who does he think he is? I personally view this as a sign of humility for us man. We are imperfect but God still loves and takes care of us. And besides, the outer appearance doesnât matter, what matters most is what we have in our hearts, because this is what God looks into, not what we look like, but what we did and how we loved.
IV- Conclusion
The movie was interesting. I loved the debates and I loved the philosophy behind the remarks of the two lawyers. I feel bad actually, because deep inside, I know that there are Bradys and Jeremiah Browns in the present world. These people, who thinks that they are completely correct in their interpretations of the bible, not to mention they think that they are the only one right.
I mean, yes, I admit, the words, the Bible is important, but as Iâve just recently learned in Religion 11 that the authors of the books in the bible didnât write the bible in specific detail, they wrote it for the purpose of telling the people Godâs message of love behind those words.
I remember one of my former religion teachers saying that a religious is different from a holy person. A religious person strictly follows the tradition and rituals we used to have. A holy person is one with selfless and unconditional love given to every one he meets.
In the movie, I learned not to be judgemental of things I donât fully have knowledge on. I also learned that standing up for what you believe is right though largely opposed is a very brave act.
We must be careful in our perception of religion or of his word, because we not only distort our and otherâs lives, we also distort Godâs image and the goodness of this world. I was actually freaked out by Jeremiah Brown, damning his daughter to hell and how he prays, how he speaks and how he condemn people he consider as sinful. I mean, God forgives even the unforgivable, and he goes on preaching about God sending out lightning and punishment to the sinners.
There are a lot of things I still have to learn about. I canât say that my perception is right, but this is what I consider as of the present me. But I am open to learning and to different views, in the end, it would still be up to me to decide on which to believe in. The only thing Iâm sure would never change is my view of my God as my father, my best friend, someone who forgives the unforgivable, someone who gives selfless and unconditional love, someone I know would never leave me alone and someone who I know, would like me to be with Him in His kingdom someday.
Let me share something I read from The Devil and Miss Prym by Paulo Coelho which goes something like this, âDonât be too bothered by what they say is right, just follow your hearts desire.â I interpret this as âJust love like Jesus did, it is the only sure good thing in this world.â

My Last Few Hours in the Island

Sun, 27 May 2007 14:03:32 +0000

I just arrived in Dumaguete from Dakak.

I still feel tired but at last i am already here. Now, i have to get ready for school. Opening of classes is drawing near. I'll be getting my class card tomorrow and i'll follow up my scholarship application.

Phew, sounds like a lot of work huh?

Anyways, i didn't expect i'll have a lot of fun in Dakak with my family. My dad, mom, sis, kuya Marlon, Aunti emie, Uncle Ging, Aunti Evelyn and her daughter came too.

We departed from Mercedes at like quarter to 4. We had a lot of bags because i will directly be coming here. Our stay was funny because we didn't buy food in Dakak, we brought some food but we just hid it because bringing food and drinks is prohibited.

Talk about being pasaway huh?

Now i know where i got my traits.

Lol.

I had fun with my pictorial, i just knew that camwhoring with my Kuya Marlon was fun.

Check out the pictures.

Anyways, there are a lot of jellyfish there so a lot of guests are afraid to swim in the beach.

We also passed by Lee Plaza to buy some stuff in Dipolog City.
