I found the pieces in my hand
They were always there
It just took some time for me to understand
You gave me words I just can't say
So if nothing else
I'll just hold on while you drift away
Cause everything you wanted me to hide
Is everything that makes me feel alive

The cities grow
The rivers flow
Where you are, "I'll" never know
But I'm still here
If you were right and I was wrong
Why are you the one who's gone
And I'm still here
Still here

I've seen the ashes in my heart
I smile the widest
When I cry inside and my insides blow apart
I tried to wear another face
Just to make you proud
Just to make you put me in my place
But everything you wanted from me
Is everything that I could never be

The cities grow
The rivers flow
Where you are, "I'll" never know
But I'm still here
If you were right and I was wrong
Why are you the one who's gone
And I'm still here

Maybe tonight
It's gonna be alright
I will get better
Maybe today
It's gonna be okay
I will remember

I held the pieces of my soul
I was shattered and I wanted you to come and make me whole
Then I saw you yesterday
But you didn't notice
And you just walked away
Cause everything you wanted me to hide
Is everything that makes me feel alive

The cities grow
The rivers flow
Where you are, "I'll" never know
But I'm still here
If you were right and I was wrong
Why are you the one who's gone
And I'm still here
The lights go out, the bridges burn
Once you're gone, you can't return
But I'm still here
Remember how you used to say I'd be the one to run away
But I'm still here

Behind the silence over the past two weeks was a sort of not-so-ordinary days. Hanging out with friends to unwind once in a while especially right after receiving the salary became a usual thing for us. Sticking with the original plan, a certain group of photographers share their common passion in photography and pursued their photoshoot at Eden Nature Park last August 9, 2008. Having Raquel and Aubrey (friends) as their models. It was approximately 6 hour photoshoot that it became exhausting to everyone.

Meanwhile, there were four of us who joined the group to give assistance to our model friends and to do a "business" of our own at the same time. We strolled around Eden, tried something that the place could offer and please ourselves. We had our buffet lunch together in which we were not satisfied for it wasn't really worth it. Then we had our zipline experience. Glad I was able to overcome my fear of heights, wasn't I?

There were little issues regarding that particular event that can't be avoided most of the time. Things like time that was not being followed (delays), transportation problem, and other things like that. Not a big deal, though. And considering the fact that the group were able to do their purpose of going there and that the model seemed to like the result of the photos, it turned out to be a success for everyone, I must say.

For a whole week that followed, I was drowned with thoughts on my personal dealings. And had finally found a way to escape.


"photography is truth"

The following week after playing paintball, my friends Biggy, Aubrey and Kai had a Friday night out. I wasn't able to come with them due to my fever. It also happened that rain often took place at night for the past days. So, I decided to skip the fun and stay at home instead.

July 28, Tuesday, was Biggy's birthday. We celebrated her special day by having a dinner in Karlyn's, situated at Doña Luisa Village, Quimpo Blvd., Ecoland, Davao City.

July 29, Wednesday, was Arjay's birthday. In comparison to Biggy's, Arjay also celebrated his birthday by having a dinner together with his friends in one of the restaurant here in davao. Toryanos is just a walking distance from the office. It is conveniently located in front of The Apo View Hotel.

Both events wonderfully celebrated after the duty.

I spent my weekends watching the dance workshop at Metrolifestyle.

Ok. There's nothing interesting to blab about today. Just simply blogging for no reason. Some of my friends have their own story to tell about their experiences for this week. Looks like they were having a great time. Its written all over their faces. To share a little, a close friend of mine just met the whole family of her special someone and I learned that it turned out nice and flattering. The family treated her nicely and made her feel welcome to their family. Well, thats good. I'm happy for her. She really deserves to be treated that way.

It seems to me that a lot of things and activities that I'll be looking forward to such as birthday celebrations and weekend activities with friends, to name a few. But as for today, or should I say as for the rest of this week, there's nothing in particular that I am preparing myself for and most probably I just go through with the same old routine.

I think that's all for now. I need to finish my task on time coz I'll be logging out at exactly 5pm as much as possible. There are three things I need to accomplish before I go home.

Ciao!

Last year, when the time I scarcely knew my night shift friends, they already played paintball and I became curious about it and on how it is played. Last saturday, my dayshift friends played paintball and I finally got the chance to watch. I decided not to join them for I do not know how to play the game. So I just watch my friends play and took some pictures.

I always look forward to every weekend. Its always on the weekends when I have time for myself and do my personal stuff at home. Saturday and Sunday are for me the best days of the week. Aside from having time for myself alone, I also get a chance to spend time with my friends, having fun outdoors. And Sunday would be the best day to have a quality time with my family. Sometimes we go out, having dinner in a restuarant but sometimes we prefer to just stay at home after hearing the mass. At home, we always gather in the living room, watching television together.

My brother used to buy DVD's that we could watch together at home but we tend to want and look for more movies after playing one or two. Cable tv is always what easily pop into my mind. While thinking about it, I remember the time when we had a cable tv and had it disconnected shortly. Simply because we are paying its bill and yet we didn't enjoy that much. And now, it's a good thing that I came across this cool site which I think can be the best alternative in place of the cable tv. In Direct TV, you can watch as much coolest movies and sports you wanted.


Aside from the convinience that the Direct TV System provides to you, it also provides the best quality of its sound and picture that can lead you to a great viewing experience. In addition to that, Direct TV Service is always be of help to answer your needs and inquiries and if anything goes wrong.


So why don't you decide and try it yourself!
