"Why can't you like me like the other boys do?"


"Why can't you want me like the other boys do?
They stare at me while I stare at you.

Why can't I keep you safe as my own?
One moment I have you the next you are gone.

It's true I crave you.

Rehearsed steps on an empty stage,
That boy’s got my heart in a silver cage.

I walked into the room dripping in gold, dripping in gold.
A wave of heads did turn, or so I've been told, or so I've been told.
My heart broke when I saw you kept your gaze controlled.

Around his little finger, that boy has got me curled.
I try to reach out, but he's in his own world.
This boy's got my head tied in knots with all his games.
I simply want him more because he looks the other way.

Why can't you want me like the other boys do?
They stare at me while I crave you.

I am craving you."

Raise your toes up if you can relate!

I can't help giggling.  There's just something about wanting someone who doesn't want you back! It's frustrating of course, yet fascinating also!  Some days, you would want to beg the universe and all the higher beings out there to help you make him want you too!  Then other days, you would just want to sit back, relax, and enjoy the thrill of imagining "what if" he wants you too?  Giggles!!

Oh my... I don't know... Maybe it's just the lyrics. And... okay, okay, him too. Gosh!

Why does he have to be that cute!

"The Tomato Syndrome"

Below is my Basic Speech Project #1 piece. I opted to remove personal facts though. :) “Decide that you want it more than you’re afraid of it”, a line that has been my mantra these days. I believe most of us have some things that we fear of, right? Me, I’m afraid to talk or speak in front of an audience. Audience, guests, fellow toastmasters, ladies and gentlemen, good evening! Speaking in front of many people has always been a dreadful situation for me. This is because of some physical effect. I call it “the tomato syndrome”. This is a self-diagnosed condition wherein when I am tense, my body temperature will rise. If I touch my skin, I could feel the hot flashes as if I’m burning. I will have rashes all over my body, especially on my face. And I will look like an almost rotten tomato. I will have this some sort of allergic reaction when I get nervous. So I stay away from situations that would make me nervous. I excuse myself from spotlights, stage talks like this...

"The Silly Things"

My Basic Speech Project #2 piece. Speech Title: The Silly Things Brief Description: The silly things I thought were true when I was little Did you as a child believe that if you swallowed a watermelon seed, it would grow inside your stomach and you would become a tree? Fellow toastmasters, guests, those who have creative and silly beliefs during their childhood, good evening! I had a few silly notions that I was so sure of when I was a kid.  Have you also believed before that if you swallowed a butong-pakwan, it would grow inside your stomach, and soon enough you would become a tree?  How about believing that people on TV shows lived inside the television?  Yes? Aside from these, can you think of at least three more things you thought were true when you were little? Okay, let me tell you mine.  These three silly things are in the context of sexual orientation.  I especially picked these three out of the other things down memory lane because ...

One word: Strength

She is strict and disciplined.  Absolutely not soft spoken and can become angry easily.  If something is not right in her eyes, she sure will tell (no, nag) you about it in a forceful voice and sometimes hurtful words. In my younger years, I had moments where I despised her very much.  When instead of embracing me for making it thru the running mad dogs, she made a gripo (faucet) out of my ribs by a full three-sixty-degree pinch.  I could not, for the life of me, understand why I got punished instead of gotten a hug. You see, she is some woman.  She’s often misunderstood.  She doesn't wear her heart on her sleeve, not the affectionate and touchy one.  Yet… she is strong... and brave.  Her way of nurturing is unconventional, not much cuddling for you, you must learn how to stand on your own.  She makes me do things independently and courageously.  I am forever in awe of how she instills self-sufficiency and resiliency in me.  I a...
