lola en

my grandma died yesterday and I can't even be there to say goodbye... I love you lola I wish I could have seen you one last time..

They told me I could probably go home in december.. my brother is there but the first idea that popped into my head was.. what jeepneys do I ride to get to palmera 3.. I think I still remember..

One particular scene I always remember when I used to bother them at their house when they still lived beside our house was seeing my grandma brush her nice thick healthy hair.. I told her.. lola ang ganda naman ng buhok mo(grandma your hair looks nice).. and she answers syempre maganda kasi ako(of course coz I'm beautiful).. I love it when she laughs.. she laughs so hard sometimes it makes her cough.. she is one of those people whom whenever you talk to you can feel their sincerity... I love seeing her at reunions.. coz not like every other aunt or grandma that asks you why you don't have a bf or why you're not married yet she does the opposite.. o wag ka muna magb-bf bata ka pa.. wag ka muna mag-aasawa... kamusta ka na.. nami-miss na kita.. you can always feel from what she says that she's proud of you...

I love it when I had vacations at their new house... she used to tell me stories about my dad when he was a kid.. how she'd steal my dad from his mom... how she'd fight them saying.. bakit nyo pinagdadamot si boy.. that's the way she talked to my dad when he didn't want me to stay at their house.. she was very funny.. she loved hearing stories from where we were but I don't know how she does it but it doesn't sound like gossip when either she tells it or when she weasles it out out of people.. like me hehehe... she has a way of talking to people and making them feel welcome and at ease.. ey but she has a nasty bite too.. she can flick off people when she needs to... i always thought she was too thin or too frail.. i saw her get mad once.. I forgot what the reason was but I was thinking... wow..  

She is ony mighty lady.. I remember her taking care of my great grandma who lived until she was 98(?)... I wish she lived long enough for me to see her again though... I miss her.. I wasn't able to talk much with her but it was always fun when we did.. I wish I could have gone home before she died..

I miss you lola.. I love you...

i love this song

Just like tyrone wells' I hate you song I love this song by get set go too.. it's title is I HATE EVERYONE.. hahaha I think this is me when either I'm pmsing or just because...

Some stupid chick in the checkout line
Was paying for beer with nickels and dimes
And some old man who clipped coupons
Had argued whenever they wouldn't take one
All I wanted to was buy some cigarettes
But I couldn't take it anymore so I left

I hate everyone (4x)

All the people on the street, I hate you all
And the people that I meet, I hate you all
And the people that I know, I hate you all
And the people that I don't, I hate you all
Oh, I hate you all

Some fucking asshole just cut me off
And gave me the finger when I fucking honked
Then he proceeded to put on the brakes
He slammed on the brakes, but I made a mistake
When I climbed out of my van he was waiting
But he was six three and two hundred pounds of Satan

I hate everyone (4x)

All the people on the street, I hate you all
And the people that I meet, I hate you all
And the people that I know, I hate you all
And the people that I don't, I hate you all
Oh, I hate you all

I bet you think I'm kidding
But I promise you its true
I hate most everybody
But most of all I hate
Oh, I hate you

All the people on the street, I hate you all
And the people that I meet, I hate you all
And the people that I know, I hate you all
And the people that I don't, I hate you all
And the people in the east, I hate you all
And the people I hate least, I hate you all
And the people in the west, I hate you all
And the people I like best, I hate you all
Oh, I hate you all

"Where Does The Good Go" - tegan and sarah

Where do you go with your broken heart in tow
What do you do with the left over you
And how do you know, when to let go
Where does the good go, where does the good go
Look me in the eye and tell me you don't find me attractive
Look me in the heart and tell me you won't go
Look me in the eye and promise no love's like our love
Look me in the heart and unbreak broken, it won't happen
It's love that leaves and breaks the seal of always thinking you would be
Real, happy and healthy, strong and calm, where does the good go
Where does the good go
Where do you go when you're in love and the world knows
How do you live so happily while I am sad and broken down
What do you say it's up for grabs now that you're on your way down
Where does the good go, where does the good go

"Wait" - get set go

Wait, wait for the dawn my dear
Wait till the sun gets here
And you will wait too long he will be gone
Wait, wait till the sun shines through
Wait till the sky is blue
And you will wait too long he will be gone, he will be gone

Ooh, he will be gone
Ooh, he will be gone

Wait, wait till the signs are right
Wait till the perfect time
And you will wait too long he will be gone, he will be gone

Ooh, he will be gone
Ooh, he will be gone

La la la la la ...

Wait till you don't doubt no more
Wait till you know for sure
And you will wait too long he will be gone now

"How to save a life" - the fray

Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
You begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
[How To Save A Life Lyrics on http://www.lyricsmania.com]
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life
How to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life
      

"Miss Halfway" - anya marina

You oughta hear the mirror in my house
You oughta fear her pretty, pretty mouth
Says I’m imperfect in every way:
“Miss Almost, Miss Maybe, Miss Halfway”

All my friends in L.A. got jobs on Melrose Place
I play Replacements songs and sigh-- a Waitress In The Sky

You oughta hear the things I’ve been thinking
You oughta swim in a heart that is sinking
You try to break me with all the things you say:
“Miss Almost, Miss Maybe, Miss Halfway”

Tony makes 60 K, invests in IRA’s,
But I’m busy making paper airplanes out of resumes

But I’m gonna burn, I’m gonna shine and multiply
I’m gonna fill up the great divide
You’ll never break me with all the things you say
“Miss Almost, Miss Maybe, Miss Halfway”

I’m gonna burn a pie now and then
And I’m gonna say the wrong things to your friends
I’m gonna burn and shine and multiply
And when I do, you’re gonna see me in her eyes…

I’m gonna burn and shine and multiply
I’m gonna fill up the great divide
You’ll never break me with all the things you say
Miss Almost, Miss Maybe, Miss Halfway
Miss Almost, Miss Maybe, Miss Halfway
Miss Halfway, Miss Halfway, Miss Halfway.

ironic

An old man turned ninety eight, he won the lottery and died the next day.. and so goes the song ironic.. It's funny but I've never been part or featured in a school newspaper be it in high school or college before... yet now I am and not only is my name spelled wrong(Aly) and what I said wasn't accurate(I think it would be crazy if eryone would bring their dog to school. It's already annoyingly loud. Imagine with barking dogs, too! - this is not me and hey guys spell check please).. it isn't even my school.. i'm not even taking a course there... I just use the pool...

here's what happened.. I use the pool at the LACC every m-w-f for lap swimming and I was on my way home when these students ambushed me, not with guns but with papers and pens and this gigantic camera(well not really but I imagine the old cameras with the smoky flash bulb-me and my imagination), anyway they were asking me what my opinion was on students bringing their dogs to school.. my first reaction was that I wasn't studying there, I just use the pool you can't interview me and 'what they bring dogs to school now?'.. Isn't it crazy that people will bring their pets to school.. aren't you supposed to be there to learn.. not take care of your dog.. ey I love dogs and they are cute but they need alot of attention and work(scooping poop, feeding, cooling them down, make sure they don't have fleas)... so what I said was what will happen to the dogs when you go to class? who's gonna take care of them... do they leave them outside?.. well what I think is isn't it enough that you have noisy classmates and now you have barking dogs... it's just crazy.. well aside from this post I hope nobody recognizes it was me.. hahaha... I was wearing my glasses which made me look dorky and unrecognizable hahaha...and they put me under computer technology major.. ey dudes I think the computer majors are at home by the time you interviewed me, hacking and whacking away the keyboards on their computer.. yeah yeah yeah don't be mad we're all nerds... hahaha...

oh now I can show my grand kids I was in the paper once.. to comment about dogs mwehehe... animo la salle!

-Waiting in Vain -

Annie Lenox

From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, boy
My heart said follow through.
But I know now that I'm way down on your line
But the waiting feeling's fine

So don't treat me like a puppet on a string
'Cause I know how to do my thing
Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb
I wanna know when you're gonna come

See-
*I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
'Cause summer is here
And I'm still waiting there
Winter is here
I'm still waiting there

Like I said-
It's been three years since I'm knocking on your door
And still I can knock some more
Ooh, boy, ooh, boy, is it crazy? Look, I wanna know now
For I to knock some more

You see-
In life I know
That there is lots of grief
But your love is my relief
Tears in my eyes burn
Tears in my eyes burn
While I'm waitin'
While I'm waitin' for my turn

You see-
(*Repeat)

Like I said-
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna wait in vain
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna wait in vain

It's been three years since I'm knocking on your door
And still I can knock some more
Ooh, boy, ooh, boy, is it crazy? Look, I wanna know now
Like I said-
Tears in my eyes burn
Tears in my eyes burn
While I'm waiting
While I'm waiting for my turn

You see-
Ooh, boy, ooh, boy, is it crazy? Look, I wanna know now
For I to knock some more
In life I know there is lots of grief
But your love is my relief

- Collide - 

Howie Day

The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're barely waking
And I'm tangled up in you
Yeah

But I'm open, you're closed
Where I follow, you'll go
I worry I won't see your face
Light up again

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
I somehow find, you and I collide

I'm quiet, you know
You make a first impression
I've found I'm scared to know
I'm always on your mind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the stars refuse to shine
Out of the back you fall in time
You somehow find, you and I collide

Don't stop here
I've lost my place
I'm close behind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills your mind
You finally find, you and I collide

You finally find
You and I collide
You finally find
You and I collide         
- Far Away - 
Nickelback

This time, This place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left
'Cause you know, you know, you know

[CHORUS]
           
I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me 
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if 
I don't see you anymore
On my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one last dance
Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I'd give it all
I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
Cause you know, you know, you know
          
[CHORUS]
I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me 
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if 
I don't see you anymore
So far away
(So far away) 
Far away for far too long
So far away
(So far away)
been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know 
All I wanted
I wanted you to stay
Cause I needed
I need to hear you say:
that I love you
(I love you)
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
(and I forgive you)
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and never let me go
Keep breathing
Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me...never let me go
(Keep breathing)
Hold on to me...never let me go
(Keep breathing)
Hold on to me...never let me go
