what drives you

was looking through my video downloads when i came across one of my fave tv commercials, the "what drives you" ad campaign of caltex.

in line with this, and since hindi ako makatulog because i slept for most part of the afternoon today, here's a list of my long term plans/goals.


1) find a good career (and practice it for 3 to 5 years)
2)travel (every year, if i can afford it! haha)

dream locations (and in order of priority):

korea (ang dream ng mga adik sa koreanovela like me ;p)
china (see the great wall!)
japan (la lang hehe)
europe - revisit england, see france, germany, scotland, austria, italy, lahat!
russia (nahawa ako kay mel, gusto ko with complete russian princess outfit pa ;p)
africa (to see the wild!)

3) invest in stocks (pldt, san miguel or ayala)

4) buy property - im thinking (mga-meaning more than one haha!) town house or condo, tapos paparenta ko (para may income ako)

at syemps ang mga super dream!

1) get married
2) have kids
3) change careers -> shift to preschool teaching


hindi naman masyado ilusyonada diba? hehe

math teacher

upon filing for the LET examination a few weeks ago, was faced with not so good news. the LET examiner, upon assessment of my school records, assigned me to take a math specialization! i did my best to convince her that i had taken enough units to specialize in english or the social sciences but all my efforts were in vain. waah.

and now, im feeling lazy and i dont want to take the LET anymore. I have to admit that I took up a supplementary educ course so that i can break free from the "technical and logical" bounds that my college degree has given me. but of course, pati pala ung pag educ ko walang takas. :C

owel. sayang naman ang tuition and money na nagastos ko for my supplemental educ stint. im still taking the exam. sana lng may good outcome to. whatever that is.

as usual i can only say one thing to myself. aja!

wehehe

made of honor

one of those movies you'd wish that you were watching with a special someone.
(well, special naman si cruc ;p)

your typical romantic movie, with super hot male lead to boot pa! hehe

what i loved though are the songs they used in the movie, astig!

here's a sample of some of the songs featured:

• "Love Song"
  Performed by Sara Bareilles
  
  
  
• "Stolen"
  by Dashboard Confessional
  
  
  
• "You Give Me Something"
  Performed by James Morrison
  
  
  
• "Stop Crying Your Heart Out"
  Performed by Oasis

ngaun lss na ko sa stop crying your heart out ;p

just for you...

*************************

you have my attention

(copeland)

quiet now.
your voice sings miles away
but somehow i hear your song resound
a little bit softer each day
and from my tired heart, a little bit farther away.

i’ll sing along
the whole day through.
just do your best to hear me.
it’s all you can do.

you have my attention
like you’ve had all the while,
since that first day when you made my heart smile,
with loving eyes and tired sighs that follow.
you have my attention
like a shout through an empty sanctuary.
speak but a whisper;
i’ll hear a sermon

i’ll sing along
the whole day through.
just do your best to hear me.
it’s all you can do.

i’ll sing along
the whole night through.
while you sleep safely,
i’ll be thinking about you.

you have my attention.

greatest story ever told

greatest story ever told (oliver james)

Thank you for this moment
I've gotta say how beautiful you are
Of all the hopes and dreams i could have prayed for
Here you are
If I could have one dance forever
I would take you by the hand
Tonight it's you and I together
I'm so glad I'm your man

And if i lived a thousand years you know
I'd never could explain
The way I lost my heart to you that day
But if destiny decided I should've looked the other way
Then the world would never know
The greatest story ever told
And did I tell you that I love you tonight

I don't hear the music when I'm looking in your eyes
But I feel the rythm of your body close to mine
It's the way we touch that sends me
It's the way we'll always be
Your kiss your pretty smile you know I'd die for
Oh baby you're all I need

And if i lived a thousand years you know
I'd never could explain
The way I lost my heart to you that day
But if destiny decided I should've looked the other way
Then the world would never know
The greatest story ever told
And did I tell you that I love you just how much I really need you
Did I tell you that I love you tonight

tonight

And if i lived a thousand years you know
I'd never could explain
The way I lost my heart to you that day
But if destiny decided I should've looked the other way
Then the world would never know
The greatest story ever told
And did I tell you that I love you just how much I really need you
Did I tell you that I love you tonight

my dad on the other hand says there will come a time that the increase in my paycheck will surpass the rate of my spending. law of employment and salary increase daw.

i live my life for you

You know you're everything to me
And I could never see, the two of us apart
And you know I give myself to you
And no matter what you do, I promise you my heart

I've built my world around you and I want you to know
I need you, like I've never needed anyone before

I live my life for you
I want to be by your side in everything that you do
And if there's only one thing you can believe is true
I live my life for you

I dedicated my life to you
You know that I would die for you
But our love would last forever
And I will always be with you
And there is nothing we can't do
As long as we're together

I just can't live without you, and I want you to know
I need you like I've never needed anyone before

I live my life for you
I want to be by your side in everything that you do
And if there's only one thing you can believe is true
I live my life for you

I've built my world around you and I want you to know
I need you, like I've never needed anyone before

Wow, yeah I live my life for you

checked my mail and came across this article. galing :)

Being Twenty-Something

They call it the 'Quarter-life Crisis.'

It is when you stop going along with the crowd and start realizing that
there are many things about yourself that you didn't know and may not like.
You start feeling insecure and wonder where you will be in a year or two,
but then get scared because you barely know where you are now. You start
realizing that people are selfish and that, maybe, those friends that you
thought you were so close to aren't exactly the greatest people you have
ever met, and the people you have lost touch with are some of the most
important ones.

What you don't recognize is that they are realizing that too, and aren't
really cold, catty, mean or insincere, but that they are as confused as you.
You look at your job.... and it is not even close to what you thought you
would be doing, or maybe you are looking for a job and realizing that you
are going to have to start at the bottom and that scares you. Your opinions
have gotten stronger. You see what others are doing and find yourself
judging more than usual because suddenly you realize that you have certain
boundaries in your life and are constantly adding things to your list of
what is acceptable and what isn't.

One minute, you are insecure and then the next, secure.
You laugh and cry with the greatest force of your life.
You feel alone and scared and confused.

Suddenly, change is the enemy and you try and cling on to the past with dear
life, but soon realize that the past is drifting further and further away,
and there is nothing to do but stay where you are or move forward.

You get your heart broken and wonder how someone you loved could do such
damage to you.

Or you lie in bed and wonder why you can't meet anyone decent enough that
you want to get to know better. Or maybe you love someone but love someone
else too and cannot figure out why you are doing this because you know that
you aren't a bad person. One night stands and random hook ups start to look
cheap. Getting wasted and acting like an idiot starts to look pathetic.

You go through the same emotions and questions over and over, and talk with
your friends about the same topics because you cannot seem to make a
decision.

You worry about loans, money, the future,

and making a life for yourself.

....And while winning the race would be great,

right now you'd just like to be a contender....

What you may not realize is that everyone reading this relates to it.
We are in our best of times and our worst of times, trying as hard as we can
to figure this whole thing out.

There you have it. Isn't it nice to know that you're not the only one who's
being haunted by changes and the past? I'm saying this to you as well as to
myself:



Move forward.

Do not be afraid.

Let the change take place and be thankful for it.

Don't cling to the past just because you're comfortable with it.
Let life take place.
Embrace it.
Love it.
Find yourself and don't be afraid of who you are meant to be.
