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.

PolSci and Philo. Ok ba? That's the two courses I planned to use for the UP admission papers. Alam kong bigatin itong dalawang quota and nonquotang courses na ito pero I have interest naman sa dalawang toh. :) Pero hindi ako ganun ka-interested in these two as compared to my interest in art. Siyempre. I'm not a serious person so why expect me to be interested in the studies of Marx or of Machiavelli? Diba? Hindi ko inaasahang magiging suma or magna or cum laude man ako pagkagraduate ko if ever either of these two is my course. But I'll really, really try. My Golly. Sa STC palang hindi ko na kaya, sa UP pa kaya? Pero I promise myself that I will try my best-est. hehe.
Oh well. Pero for now, kailangan ko munang magfocus sa UPCAT. Paano ako magkakaroon ng course na Philo or PolSci if I'm not in UP? Eh dun ko lang naman gustong mag-aral ng mga ganung courses.
Naglalaho na sa isip ko ang Nursing. Ayoko nang mag-medicine.
Pero if ever man na hindi ako sa UP na sana huwag naman. Oh please! eh sa UST nalang ako at magnunursing ako para sure na.
Ciao!

Goodbye braces! Hello retainers!
Life gets better and better these past 2 days!:)
First of all, my paranoia about I having appendicitis died already. And I eat food normally again. I'm back to my old self again! Love it!
Yesterday, my body was so into sleeping. During the afternoon, I was so sleepy but I fought it because I love the shows during Saturday afternoons. Unfortunately, I gave up at around 5:30pm. I woke up at 7:00pm and watch a bit of the new episode of That's So Raven and then, I dozed off to dreamland again. I woke up at 9:30pm and that's when I ate dinner. I slept again at 10:30pm.
I was so exhausted and I don't know why.
Anyway, right now, I'm collecting ballet photos at getty images. Their photo collections are superb! :)
Ciao!

I find updating really stressful...if you did not blogged for quit sometime.
Solution: Just pick one happening at a time instead of picking a date and tell all the events that happened that day which I always do even in my journal.
So here goes.
REVIEW SESSIONS @BRAINS

1st day
My very first day there was last Wednesday, April 19, 2006. My very first worst first day. Blech. I came late. As I enter the room, I saw the faces of my fellow reviewers. They all look so....irritated and cold. That instant, I felt like I want to just disappear. And here comes the worst part. I had difficulty finding my designated seat due to the fact that nervousness starts mounting in me. Oh my. I found my seat after 10-15 sec. That's sooo long already when all eyes are on you. That's what I really hate. All eyes on me. Conciousness attack.
The day gets even worst. We had a stimulation test or whatever they call that test. No break. We starved to death. What the hell. My butt hurt so bad. IKaw ba naman nakaupo for 5-and-a-half hours. Sino ba naman hindi sasakit ang butt.
Stupid first day. Hate it!

2nd day April 21,2006
I had to leave early for my sis' graduation.
I arrived early to make it up to my impromtness last wednesday. I was the very first one!:)
Both me and Nika [and maybe the rest of us] was very very thankful that we are the ones who'll choose our seats now. Hiyeees! Major elation!!!!! haha. I sat next to Nika, of course. Location: left side 2nd row. Nika was at my left while the girl who's my right seatmate last Wednesday was at my right side again. Wow. I must talk to her already. Accdg to Nika, her name is Jamie. Hi Jaime!
Anyway, we just discussed about the admission system of UP. It was really dreadful just hearing the teacher discuss those kind of things.
UP!!! Sana makapasa ako!
Another major elation was there's a break!!!!:) Before the break curtsied, I dismissed myself. :)
~~~~~~*~~~~~~
Much better. hehe.
Ciao!:)

Whenever I buy a book or two, euphoria strucks me. And that's quite unusual for good old me knowing that I'm an art junkie not really a bookworm though.
So I'm quite a bookworm these days I think. In the mornings, I prefer to just curl up with a good book or maybe improve my lovely site which I did awhile ago before typing this.
My only concern for now is I have to prevent my eyes from losing its natural, clear-as-crystal sight. I hate wearing glasses and eye contacts too. Ugh.
Hmmm, what else?
I am out of subjects so ciao!

So what can you say about my newly created skin? Well, in my opinion, it's a bit plain [again] so just bear with it. I made this maybe about 4 hours.
Anyway, so far, I had read 2 of my novels for fourth yr. The Little Prince and Senior's Ball. Daluyong is next in line. That book sucks when I first set my eyes on it. It just looks like it will eat my entire summer reading it because in reading it, I must read Maganda pa ang Daigdig so that my mind can connect the 2 novels for better understandability.
I have sooo much books to read. I must read all that this summer. I won't have time to read other books during the schoolyear.
Who watched the season finale of project runway season 1 last night?
Jay's collection shouts "fabulous!". All his clothes are wearable and looks comfy too. All the models are wearing colored headphones. Jay have a thing in pairing up colors and finding the right color for an outfit. The very last clothe that was shown in Jay's runway was sooooooooooo glamarous. Take note, it's pink! Gosh, I want that dress! Julia, the girl who modeled the last clothe of Jay's collection really worked it out! She's definitely a very good runway model. Melissa and Julia are my fave models in project runway.
The collection of Kara Saun were all PERFECT but there was this dress, I think the second one that made the model stopped for a second after her first few walks because the dress was too tight. Poor model. But her creations are really cool too but I prefer Jay's.
Wendy's collection were okay. I pity her. I wish she was nice to her co-workers eversince the sho began so that there'll be no hatred between her co-workers and herself. Poor wendy. Her daughter was cute! :)
Congratulations, Jay Mccaroll!!! :) You deserve it!
Ciao!

You must read Seniors' Ball if you're an upcoming senior. It's so entertaining. There are parts that are a bit romantic but it will tickle you. :)
Anyway, I had discovered a place where I could live in it forever. It's a bead shop @ Quiapo and it was so packed with beads and sequins and stuffs in making accessories. Although there were no patches, it's okay. Mura pa. I love that place.
Ciao!

This is my 200th entry.
Though it's not exactly the 1st bday of my blog which is tomorrow, this day is also suited for me to post my 2ooth entry because it's April Fool's Day. That's not all! Just a few minutes or maybe an hour later, I'm going craft shopping at quiapo!! How cool is that? Bargains! Wah! Things I really adored in my life [ballet, too!].
So yesterday, my stomach hurted as hell. From 2pm to 9pm I just stayed on our sofa and snoozed off just to make the pain vanish. Fortunately, at 9pm, the pain leveled down so I have the strength to eat my dinner. I still feel pain now but it's much bearable compared yesterday.
Thank You, God for helping me survive this.
Ciao.
