A Person:

The Person

I am the person
Who sits next to you in class.

I am the person
Who is a bit overweight.

I am the person
Who is laughed at because I am short.

I am the person
Who is picked on because I like computers.

I am the person
Who talks with an accent.

I am the person
Who is always to blame.

I am the person
Who takes the bus home in fear.

But I am also the person

Who is brave enough to wake up

And do it again the next day.

—Jeanette Juarez, Butner Stem

p.s. That haiku that i wrote the other day, made me laugh. What a pathetic attempt at haiku. haha

Snow Day: Several Haiku

Falling H20,
Snow when frozen, rain when not,
Often clear, rarely white

Slowly snow sweeps streets,
Enveloping a pure white,
Leaving none untouched,

Frozen, freezing path,
Blanket embraced me 'till one,
Frosted Flakes for lunch.

Growl Grumble Squirk Squeak,
My stomach weeps in hunger,
"Fill me up", she cries.

(to be cont'd)

Hey Jude by Joe Anderson (ost. Across the Universe, originally by The Beatles)

Hey Jude don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

Hey Jude don't be afraid
You were made to go out and get her
The minute you let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better

And any time you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders
For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder
Na na na na na
na na na na

Hey Jude don't let me down
You have found her now go and get her
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

So let it out and let it in
Hey Jude begin
You're waiting for someone to perform with
And don't you know that it's just you
Hey Jude you'll do
The movement you need is on your shoulder

Na na na na na
na na na na Yeah

Hey Jude don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her under your skin
Then you'll begin to make it better
Better, better, better, better, better, Yeah,Yeah,Yeah

Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na, Hey Jude!


Just a song that I was humming tonight. I just realized the beauty of this song and its lyrics in its simplicity. Somehow, The Beatles knew what to expect 40+ years ahead when they wrote this song, which is still extremely relevant in today's ever-changing world.

Before I forget to mention, Across the Universe is a musical-movie worth watching especially for you movie and music aficionados. I loved it. So will you :)

Enjoy:

p.s. Double post night! Whoop de DOO

Reflection

Reflection,

Some people interpret this word as the thing they see when they look into a mirror.

Some people interpret this word as the person that everyone else looks at when they look at them.

Some people interpret this word as that gosh-darn gorgeous person staring back at them when they look into a mirror, while thinking "Wow, I hope people look at me in the exact same way."

Some people interpret this word as the only way to remind themselves of what has been done and how it affects other people.

Some people interpret this word as the moment when their ego and vanity is tossed aside and reality and humility checks in.

Some people interpret this word as the only time when they truly appreciate god's gift of life and how lucky they are to be surrounded by the people that they love.

Then again, a reflection might simply mean light shining onto a surface and bouncing off onto another...Yet in its simplicity, it captures the gist of the word "reflection".

p.s. Just some random rants, it might not make much sense, but somehow it did to me while I was writing it. I guess I must've been sleepy/high/a combination

Stay Away - L'arc En Ciel

I am purposely making this post in order to share with y'all this song that has been stuck at the back of my head for....3 days now. It's an awesome song, with an even more awesomely-droolworthy bass-line. HYDE+Tetsu+Ken+Yukihiro=JRock Virtuosos XD. And for all of you weirdo-aficionados out there (including me), check out the last minute-or-so segment of the video; an odd blend of creativity, craziness and humor :).
