My delight and thy delight
by Robert Bridges

My delight and thy delight
Walking, like two angels white,
In the gardens of the night:

My desire and thy desire
Twinning to a tongue of fire,
Leaping live, and laughing higher;
Thro' the everlasting strife
In the mystery of life.

Love, from whom the world begun,
Hath the secret of the sun.

Love can tell and love alone,
Whence the million stars are strewn,
Why each atom knows its own,
How, in spite of woe and death,
Gay is life, and sweet is breath:

This he taught us, this we knew,
Happy in his science true,
Hand in hand as we stood
'Neath the shadows of the wood,
Heart to heart as we lay
In the dawning of the day.

I am shut out of mine own heart
by Christopher Brennan

I am shut out of mine own heart
because my love is far from me,
nor in the wonders have I part
that fill its hidden empery:

The wildwood of adventurous thought
and lands of dawn my dream had won,
the riches out of Faery brought
are buried with our bridal sun.

And I am in a narrow place,
and all its little streets are cold,
because the absence of her face
has robb'd the sullen air of gold.

My home is in a broader day:
at times I catch it glistening
thro' the dull gate, a flower'd play
and odour of undying spring:

The long days that I lived alone,
sweet madness of the springs I miss'd,
are shed beyond, and thro' them blown
clear laughter, and my lips are kiss'd:

And here, from mine own joy apart,
I wait the turning of the key: -
I am shut out of mine own heart
because my love is far from me

Wouldn't it Be Nice?
performed by Beach Boys

Wouldn't it be nice if we were older
Then we wouldn't have to wait so long
And wouldn't it be nice to live together
In the kind of world where we belong
You know its gonna make it that much better
When we can say goodnight and stay together

Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up
In the morning when the day is new
And after having spent the day together
Hold each other close the whole night through

Happy times together we've been spending
I wish that every kiss was neverending
Wouldn't it be nice

Maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray it might come true
Baby then there wouldn't be a single thing we couldn't do
We could be married
And then we'd be happy

Wouldn't it be nice

You know it seems the more we talk about it
It only makes it worse to live without it
But lets talk about it
Wouldn't it be nice

Good night my baby
Sleep tight my baby

The Cloud
by Percy Bysshe Shelley

I bring fresh showers for the thirsting flowers,
From the seas and the streams;
I bear light shade for the leaves when laid
In their noonday dreams.
From my wings are shaken the dews that waken
The sweet buds every one,
When rocked to rest on their mother's breast,
As she dances about the sun.
I wield the flail of the lashing hail,
And whiten the green plains under,
And then again I dissolve it in rain,
And laugh as I pass in thunder.

I sift the snow on the mountains below,
And their great pines groan aghast;
And all the night 'tis my pillow white,
While I sleep in the arms of the blast.
Sublime on the towers of my skiey bowers,
Lightning, my pilot, sits;
In a cavern under is fettered the thunder,
It struggles and howls at fits;

Over earth and ocean, with gentle motion,
This pilot is guiding me,
Lured by the love of the genii that move
In the depths of the purple sea;
Over the rills, and the crags, and the hills,
Over the lakes and the plains,
Wherever he dream, under mountain or stream,
The Spirit he loves remains;
And I all the while bask in Heaven's blue smile,
Whilst he is dissolving in rains.

The sanguine Sunrise, with his meteor eyes,
And his burning plumes outspread,
Leaps on the back of my sailing rack,
When the morning star shines dead;
As on the jag of a mountain crag,
Which an earthquake rocks and swings,
An eagle alit one moment may sit
In the light of its golden wings.
And when Sunset may breathe, from the lit sea beneath,
Its ardors of rest and of love,

And the crimson pall of eve may fall
From the depth of Heaven above,
With wings folded I rest, on mine aery nest,
As still as a brooding dove.
That orbed maiden with white fire laden,
Whom mortals call the Moon,
Glides glimmering o'er my fleece-like floor,
By the midnight breezes strewn;
And wherever the beat of her unseen feet,
Which only the angels hear,
May have broken the woof of my tent's thin roof,
The stars peep behind her and peer;
And I laugh to see them whirl and flee,
Like a swarm of golden bees,
When I widen the rent in my wind-built tent,
Till the calm rivers, lakes, and seas,
Like strips of the sky fallen through me on high,
Are each paved with the moon and these.

I bind the Sun's throne with a burning zone,
And the Moon's with a girdle of pearl;
The volcanoes are dim, and the stars reel and swim
When the whirlwinds my banner unfurl.
From cape to cape, with a bridge-like shape,
Over a torrent sea,
Sunbeam-proof, I hang like a roof,--
The mountains its columns be.
The triumphal arch through which I march
With hurricane, fire, and snow,
When the Powers of the air are chained to my chair,
Is the million-colored bow;
The sphere-fire above its soft colors wove,
While the moist Earth was laughing below.

I am the daughter of Earth and Water,
And the nursling of the Sky;
I pass through the pores of the ocean and shores;
I change, but I cannot die.
For after the rain when with never a stain
The pavilion of Heaven is bare,
And the winds and sunbeams with their convex gleams
Build up the blue dome of air,
I silently laugh at my own cenotaph,
And out of the caverns of rain,
Like a child from the womb, like a ghost from the tomb,
I arise and unbuild it again.

Even if I haven't seen my report card, I'm still thankful that I won't be taking summer class/es. And that means, I have completed ALL my requirements in third yr and I have to say farewell. Wheee! I'm officially a senior! Yey! But behind my yey, there's something that bothers me. I so wish I would be in research elective. Please! But I want to be in Visual Arts, too but it's quite expensive so I just decided to be in research and I don't know how to blend colors and most espeially, I don't know how to paint. Why take Visual, right?
The fact that I'm now going to take my entrance exams in UST and UP is a bit scary. I wish I would pass those two exams. Mas lalo na UP even if I'm quite sure I won't study there because I'm planning to take Nursing. Hay. Bad trip. I so want to go to UP. Maybe after taking nursing, I would go to UP to study interior designing or architecture. :)
I'm sure my grades are low..again!
Ciao!

I am supposed to go craft shopping this afternoon but the stupid rain came so I decided I'll just do that maybe next week because I'm not yet sure if I have to go to someplace tomorrow.
So I'm uber bored again. Bah.
I hate it when I start to plan something and then I, myself would not accomplish what I had planned. Yes, self-control again is missing. WANTED: self-control.
I really have nothing to say right now. There's not much happenings in my life during summer.
Ciao!

You brought the best out of me. You never fail to make me smile each and everyday since you came in my life. You gave me the strength and confidence to be genial. But despite all of the happiness you provide me with, you caused me pain. There was this instant that I can't seem to understand why you have to do that. But despite my doubt to you, I truly trust you. I gave up some of my favorites just for you. There were also a time when I wanted to get you out of my life. But I did not dare do that thing because of my love and thankfulness to you.
I will really miss you! You made me beautiful. I love you, braces.
BTW, my braces would soon be taken off. I think it would be next month or on May.
I still remember the days when I used to just not smile in front of the camera because of my hideous-looking, disordered upper teeth. I am afraid of having a bad picture. The pictures I hated most is my grade 6 graduation picture. They were drop-dead ugly! If you'll just have the chance to see my face there and most especially my hair and teeth. I look awful! AH! So I wish I would get a good or even an excellent graduation picture for HS. :)

Things I've learned during my junior year

Procrastination would primarily satisfy you and will get you nowhere. As you dissipate your time on desirable things, your chance of succeeding gradually decreases. After doing the all-time pastime of students[procrastination], the "satisfaction" I got turns to disappointment and cramming. All the things you do has a designated negative effect.
Be open. Even if you hate math as much as you hate being ill-treated, you must try to be open. That's the only way interest can emerge into your system. Openness is versatile. It helped me see the other side of my new classmates, the side which helped me survive the not so idyllic year in HS.
Do not ENTIRELY sacrifice a close relationship just for your studies. I don't even want to talk about this.
Believing is next to reality. It also brings out the self-confidence you need in order to succeed.
Mistakes brings out the best in you. During the 1st qtr, in algeb, I casually gives a wrong answer when I answer on the board. I strive to repay the damage I have done in my algeb subject. And it turns out I correctly answer all the probs I answer on the board during the last qtr. :)

I revived the color-coding scheme in my jungle-like closet[before!]. Snaps for me!
I want to take this opportunity to congratulate all the seniors who'll graduate tomorrow. You all did a very good job. You actually survived the journey. The journey which entailed hardwork, patience and sacrifice in your part. You all enjoy being in college. :)
The fact that we, my batch, would already be the ones who'll be looked up to by the lower levels and in a few months, we're gonna say goodbye to STC gives me goosebumps. I can't imagine myself, commuting. Bah. But I'm sure I'll miss STC so much but at the same time, I'll be very glad that I'm freee from the rules and regulations!!!! And the thing that really tingle my excitement is that I'll have the freedom to wear anything that is if I'm not gonna take med-related courses or if I'm not gonna be in a univ where uniform is required. A great thing also has a downside. I'm gonna need more clothes. haha. Better save now! ;)
I want to ramble through the magnificent streets of NY, the white cemented sidewalks of california, the romantic surroundings of Paris and the sandy beaches of The Carribean. That's just some places I want to visit. I have a very long list in my mind of places I want to visit before I die.
Ciao!

Ever felt like you don't want to celebrate the extreme happiness that you are experiencing because despair or melancholy might suddenly replace the extreme happiness. You prefer to just accept the fact that your happy and that's enough. I have felt that sort of thing yesterday. I was very afraid to the fact that the happiness would soon fade away and melancholy would thrive within me. This contrasts the saying of the great playwright, William Shakespeare:"All's well that ends well". So much for happy endings. But I wish and I also believe that God won't let me have a sad ending. :)
So I guess I must celebrate this extreme happiness that I'm feeling right now. This is because of SUMMER! No requirements, no waking up at 5am...just perfect. Heaven!
Ciao!

I had a very scrumptious lunch. Ckicken bbq. Yum! Our dog, Niro also enjoyed eating. Yummy talaga! Anyway, dissipate my time watching my fave tv shows such as Hey, Arnold!, Conan O'brien, Spongebob Squarepants, and many more. Why can't I stop watching TV just for a freaking day? Bah. Self-control, where art thou? It will not surely show up in my case. I never experienced being so proud due to that thing. Self-control is an extraterrestrial in my world so don't expect me to be in control. Maybe you'll ask, why can't I try just once to be in control? Oh, brother. I really can't. I did all sorts of things just to make that word a reality but I just can't. And I don't know how that happened.
Oh well. That's life. There's some things you can't do. Why care? Just accept it. That's all.
I hate the hotness of the surroundings this moment. Siyempre, summer season..what do you expect, hail? snow? fog?
Visit my multiply. I added some new pictures yesterday. Thanks to Globe for giving me the free unlimited access in mms. :)
Caio!

Look at my new skin. Is it obvious that I am trying to portrait the beach. I'm too lazy to find a picture rather a cartoon-style coconut trees and clouds so just be contented with this skin first. I'll make some major fixing when my hard-work mood boost in maximum quantity.
Caio!

summer. sumMER. suMMER. sUMMER.
what a sweet word your are.
It's officially summer and I am now in a relief symphony. The symphony of summer. Oh gosh. Pardon my intense gladness. I longed for this relaxing symphony for quite a long time. Maybe from the start of my junior year till awhile ago. And now, summer has come. Wohooo! Love it!
So what's in store for me this summer. Hmmm. I can say review seesions would be the highlight of this summer. I have no plans for this summer although I have plans--ordinary ones like go to divi and 168 and check out the accessories, clothes, and craft things.
I'm pretty sure in the middle of summer, I'll ironically long for school.
We'll never know. That's what happened last summer and they say, "History repeats itself." so why can't my history happen again?
I'm going to wrap-up what happened in my junior year tomorrow.
Summer means blogging. Watch out for a lot of entries.

I can't seem to understand myself. Yesterday, I really, really want summer season to come but suddenly, today, it's the opposite. As I watched my gradeschool servicemates, I realized one thing..Bute nalang hindi namin last day ngayon. Why? Kasi I will surely long for my schoolmates especially my close friends. I will surely be bored to death again this summer even if I'll take review sessions at nmath. The thing I hate most in school is that you must review what your teacher taught you. You'll review like 3 times. One for the quiz, the other for the long quiz and the last for the exam. What a bummer. That's the only thing I really hate about school. I haven't experienced intense reviewing talaga, in my entire life. Maybe I should try that method next year. Who knows, that may be a way for me to be exempted to some subjects which I am planning to try next year together with my ex-seatmate, Pat. Galingan natin, Pat! We can do it! No one can stop us! Nothing can stop us! Right? :)
I feel like it's already summer. I emptied my locker already awhile ago. Parang kahapon lang nung naglilista ang homeroom namin nung mga assigned sa mga lockers. I will never forget you, locker. You made my life easier by not letting me carry humongous bags. Thank you for a year full of crap and dirt! Thank you for your patience and dedicated in helping me in my junior life. I wonder what my locker would be like next year. Wait, in the first place, am I sure that I would pass third yr? Oh, please, let me pass! Please! I did my best [not the very best though] to have good grades. And I promise you next year, I would do my best to exempt as many 4th qtr exams as possible. :)

The 1st day of the 4-day exam sessions is over. Thank You Lord!
I am already finished studying the lectures given to us by our socsci teacher [fave! idol! :)]. The things I still have to accomplish before I rest my slightly stressed brain are:

study socsci book.
study the whole 4th qtr of chem
practice the prob solving in chem

And then, I am free. Oh not yet. Still have 4 exams to study and analyze and review.

Can't wait for summer!!!!

Hate you ISP sooooo much!!!!! Rar! I am really in the mood of posting an entry when suddenly, the ISP won't send bytes. Grrr talaga! If I could just do a revenge to ISP, I would. Oh wait. Julz, remember the beatitude, the 3rd one to be specific. Be meek. Meek people don't take revenge as their solution to their problem.
So now, I'm just pushing myself in posting an entry for no reason at all.
I gotta go. Ciao!

I was surprised to hear the sound of rain outside just this moment. I thought it would never rain because of the scourging heat we were experiencing these past few days.
Summer season would officially start on March5. Yiii! But sad to say, our classes were extended until the 13th. Bad news. That's the fruit of the 4-day merry holiday. Rar!
I really have nothing to say right now. I just want to type some, you know, nonsense rantings and blabbings.
Gotta go. I have to study already. But the question is, will I really study?
Let's just see.
Ciao!
