I seriously want to know
(I’d like to get your opinion on this.)
I know for a fact that homelessness isn’t just an “American” thing. It’s not just a third-world thing either. Whether you’ve seen a homeless person or not, you’ve most probably heard stories about them.
I hope you guys would answer this because I’m just that curious; and don’t forget that you...

mmkay guys, seriously: If you have anything to ask

I don’t bite.
If you ask something complicated, of course it’ll take time to reply. If you ask something silly or sarcastic, I’ll take it seriously (because I suck at detecting humor online), and even that would take time to reply.
I’ll try my best.
God bless you guys, I appreciate...

so someone finally asked me to be their rhythm guitarist. His exact words were
“Ey ummm how good are in chords!?”
and this was on Facebook. Then he proceeded to explicitly compliment my skills— if that’s what you want to call it.
How good am I on chords? Well, I’ve memorized all the chords. I can barre. I can play on hours end with little to no risk of tiring...

This is Madness
My beloved sister has tagged me in over a hundred photos within the last couple of hours. This is due to our trips to Sequoya National Park, Lake Tahoe and some other places.
Guh. So many pictures though. You’d expect me to change my profile picture on Facebook but I just don’t want to. No matter how pretty these new pictures are, nothing could replace this weird picture I have...

F_r_v_r _l_n_
So after the trip to Sequoya National Park, we went to Lake Tahoe the next day. Pretty darn cold up there. Beautiful, but freezing.
We decided to take the cruise thing that they do. Meh, if it was part of the tour, might as well.
Going into the boat I was like “Oh this is going to be one of the best things I’ll ever do over the break.” In fact, the reverse.
First of all,...

Music, My Friend, and Myself
As I might have said before, I play the guitar and my friend does bass. I’m no Eric Clapton, he’s no Flea, but we’re highly inspired, and we both like to play. However, we are no two-man band (save that for the White Stripes). We’re just two teenagers with instruments who meet up once in a while just to play see what they could do with a handful of riffs, notes, or...

mmm... Beatles Songs
Why do I like em so much? Because I can actually play em.
Recently, I said that I could play “Drive My Car.” Let me rephrase that: I think I can play it.
What I really like about the Beatles is that some of their songs have solos I can actually do. (Oh no way: I just realized solos is a palindrome. Mind has been blown.) Let me rephrase that: solos I think I can recreate—...

There is a double rainbow right outside my house. A double - as it TWO. Blessed is God, its his promise that he is with us.

cool story, kin
(no really, this has to be the most pointless post I’ve ever done, but I feel like I should just do this just for fun)
I got a new phone lately. By “lately”, I mean a few months ago. And by “new” I mean hand-me-down from my sister. It’s this kooky Nokia that has a touchscreen. (Snicker. I used kooky.) To be frank, I’m not that excited about it. In...

Drive My Car
This song just played on my Zune the other day while I was folding laundry. I thought to myself, “It’s been a while since I practiced a new song.” And the Beatles is always a safe choice
Recently, I’ve been trying to play it. Sounds promising. I just like the neat riffs: Not too fancy. Very clean. Very classy. Very Beatles.
Can’t wait to let the band know. ...

yet another opinion before I go do homework
On Friday, my school had a handful of classes (including mine) to listen to the school orchestra + choir do their thing for 3rd period. Skipped English class because of that, so wootwoot. My friend (who’s name I will not mention) insisted that it will extremely boring and a complete waste of time. It was going to be bad. Optimistic as I was in the moment, I simply said, “Oh come...

Suffering
Looks like even stress knows no partiality. Even when Christmas is around the corner, suffering chooses to cling on to my heart.
I am worried . I am burdened. I am grieved. I am disheveled. I am distraught. I feel like I’m still in school, with all the work I have to put up with. The only difference between being in school and this holiday break is that I don’t see my peers...
Never underestimate the power of a girl.

Running in the rain is fun. Health risks? I really don’t know. Frankly (and I know I shouldn’t be saying this) I don’t really care. It’s just so fun getting soaked and burning fats at the same time.
In fact, I’m planning on running tomorrow, especially because I need to get back into shape (facing the ever-fattening Holiday season and all).
I’m totally...

My other observation:
I’m one of those (many) un-photogenic guys. There’s just something about a camera that makes me not want to smile. It’s like the only way you want to see kids like me pull a legit smile is if you’re there. The only (rare) time I am photogenic is when my sister is around, when I’m with my Filipino friend (hi Michelle) or as I’ve observed lately, with another...

under the weather
Yesterday was the last day of school for the year. This means I won’t see any of my classmates ever, until January of next year. I’ll admit that I screwed up yesterday. Everybody was all happy, in the season, jovial, and whatnot. And then there was me: the busy bee who didn’t even have enough time to just calm down and chill with his best friend who just came back from...

I would like to respectfully challenge your views, Donne.
Is life all about baring our cross? Is it all about being under the hard test of “God” and suffering? I agree that cloning in general is not something i’d be for, just because it would dramatically change our society in a negative way, but therapeutic...

My View on Cloning
Got me thinking today when we watched a video about cloning in AP Bio.
I guess when I take a good hard look at what I believe in, I’d have to say I’m not for it. I know that I should look at this in the point of view of others. Let’s say I’m that guy suffering from spinal cord injury, or the decaying kidney, or blindness, or anything of the sort. Well, I just listened...

In fact, I am that awkward boy who thinks (toasted) Nutella sandwiches are gifts. That means that if I catch you walking down the hall knowing it’s your birthday, there’s a huge chance there’s one sandwich in my backpack with your name on it, because you’re awesome, and I like you (as a friend sorta thing).
I never get sandwiches in return but I don’t care. If I...

it's been a long while, hasn't it?
I’m really sorry guys. I know, it’s pathetic. I haven’t been on that much. We can all blame homework.
Anyway, here’s a breakdown of all the things that has happened to me so far since the last time I posted (which was about everybody changing their profile picture on Facebook):

My dear friends, please support the crusade to denounce violence against children by changing your Facebook profile picture to a cartoon from your childhood and invite your friends to do the same. Until Monday (December 6), there should be no faces on Facebook, but an invasion of memories.
