Mr. Curiosity

Hey Mr. Curiosity
Is it true what they've been saying about you
Are you killing me?
You took care of the cat already
And for those who think it's heavy
Is it the truth
Or is it only gossip
Call it mystery or anything
Just as long as you'd call me
I sent the message on did you get it when I left it
See this catastrophic event
It wasn't meant to mean no harm
But to think there's nothing wrong is a problem

I'm looking for love this time
Sounding hopeful but it's making me cry
Love is a mystery
Mr. Curious...
Come back to me
Im waiting ever patient can't you see
That I'm the same the way you left me
In a hurry to spell check me
And I'm underlined already in envy green
And pencil red
And I've forgotten what you've said
Will you stop working for the dead and return
Mr. curious well I need some inspiration
It's my birthday and I cannot find no cause for celebration
The scenario is grave but I'll be braver when you save me
From this situation laden with hearsay
I'm looking for love this time
Sounding hopeful but it's making me cry
And love is a mystery
Mr. Curiosity
Be Mr. please
Do come and find me,
I'm looking for love this time
Sounding hopeful but it's making me cry
Trying not to ask why
Cause love is a mystery
Mr. curiosity
Be Mr. please
Do come and find me
Love is blinding when the timing's never right
Oh who am I to beg for difference
Finding love in just an instant
Well I dont mind, at least I've tried
And I tried, I tried...

Things That I have Learned recently

As I've Matured...


I've learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is
stalk them and hope they panic and give in...

I've learned that one good turn gets most of the blankets.

I've learned that no matter how much I care, some people are just
jackasses.

I've learned that it takes years to build up trust, and it only takes suspicion, not proof, to destroy it.

I've learned that whatever hits the fan will not be evenly distributed.

I've learned that you shouldn't compare yourself to others - they are more screwed up than you think.

I've learned that depression is merely anger without enthusiasm.


I've learned that it is not what you wear; it is how you take it off.

I've learned to not sweat the petty things, and not pet the sweaty things.

I've learned that ex's are like fungus, and keep coming back.I've learned age is a very high price to pay for maturity.

I've learned that I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy it.

I've learned that the people you care most about in life are taken from you too soon and all the less important ones just never go away. And the real pains in the ass are permanent.

And I've learned that artificial intelligence is no match for natural
stupidity

Life is beautiful

It takes a crane to build a crane
It takes two floors to make a story
It takes an egg to make a hen
It takes a hen to make an egg
There is no end to what I'm saying

It takes a thought to make a word
And it takes a word to make an action
It takes some work to make it work
It takes some good to make it hurt
It takes some bad for satisfaction

It takes a night to make it dawn
And it takes a day to you yawn brother
It takes some old to make you young
It takes some cold to know the sun
It takes the one to have the other

It takes no time to fall in love
But it takes you years to know what love is
It takes some tears to make you trust
It takes some years to make it rust
It takes some dust to make it polished

It takes some silence to make sound
It takes a loss before you found it
It takes a road to go nowhere
It takes a toll to know you care
It takes a hole to make a mountain

Life is beautiful,Life is a full circle

huh

I dunno what I have been doing these days but Im kind of killing myself from work.Its nice to be busy.Somehow you get to forget your problems.=)

Cebu, Philippines Local News

Salt water intrusion now reaching Lahug April 25, 2004


SEAWATER has already intruded into the subterranean areas of the city as far as barangay Lahug.
This was disclosed by the University of San Carlos-Water Resource Center to the Cebu Uniting for Sustainable Water Foundation Inc., in an open forum yesterday, which focused with the Integrated Water Resources Management.
Fr. Martino Aliganga, Executive Director of CUSW said that the intrusion of seawater is due to the degradation of the principal watersheds of Central Cebu and the worsening condition of the coastal aquifers depleted by over pumping together with the destruction of natural recharge areas by infrastructure constructions and other human developments.
Principal watershed areas of Central Cebu include the Mananga Watershed Forest Reserve in Talisay City, the Kotkot-Lusaran Watershed Forest Reserve, the Buhisan Watershed Forest Reserve, the Central Cebu National Park in Balamban and the Sudlon National Park.
The sustainability of water supply for the Metropolis is linked to the integrity of the Central Watershed areas and Coastal aquifers, which is the primary source of freshwater in the City. Alingasa said that the water tables are declining due to the overextraction of water from underground where fresh water is present, by the other unlicensed pump and well owners which is not monitored by the National Water Resources Board and the denudation of the forest canopy whose roots contribute much to the water table levels.
“Saline water has already mixed with our underground fresh water supply because there is an imbalance of the sea pressure into the inland, our source of water has already declined as rivers and lakes have already dried up and our watershed areas have been deforested and eroded,” Aliganga said.
Aliganga added that the proper maintenance of these watershed areas should be carried out with the planting of trees. He also added that there should be an implementation of proper waste management and riverbank stabilization to maintain the freshwater supply in the metropolis.
“Desertation (sic) could happen if we continue to abuse our forest lands and if we will not do our part in preserving them,” Aliganga said further

BAMBOOED


RX: Bamboo, 18 Feb 2006, Aznar Coliseum, SWU, Cebu City.
The title is appropriate. RX: Bamboo. Meaning, I have to take Bamboo pills (or eat Bamboo shoots--the sexual undertones, hmmm...joke....) because, face it, the man is sexy. Now since I am currently incapable of writing a review (since when did I become capable?), let me tell you this: While others were dancing to the beat, I stood on my chair and seriously contemplated having an immediate breast implant. Man, Bamboo Manalac the lead singer is really really hot he must be prevented from going to the South Pole because the icecaps might melt.
I'll stop here. It's time for my Bamboo medication.
