Chicken Sopas for the Reader's Bowl

Fisheyes and 'Fireflies'

Caught Senior Year around this time a year ago. And until now, I wonder if my last year was anything like that. Sure, we were Boys are Back dreamers and we, too, wanted all - but we didn't get it. None of us had a tree house and a red cape. We lost in our last big game. And our final production number... Well, the CD containing our grad song got forgotten, so we had to do it without any accompaniment. How's that for a musical?

Also, our heads would be cut off the moment we were caught dancing on the school's rooftop or wearing a red toga on grad day.

HS life could pass off more as something from Owl City than any song from the franchise. But every now and then, we still get together and talk. Even if the prom stage, and practically every stage we had, were never as big and decked out as the ones in the movie -- friends were just as true.

Thanks to Carlo for the shot.

"The Only Japanese I Remember is 'Taikutsu Na'"

My days have been like what's on our family TV lately. Partly Glee, partly The Wonder Years...
...and just about enough hints of I Survived a Japanese Gameshow.

This Little Song

Life's this little song I can't seem to sing alone.
As short as it is, these choruses are just too big
and these notes are too high,
I need some help to reach them.
And did I mention I cannot sing any kind of falsetto?
We all got our own tunes in our hearts,
but life is a little song that I cannot sing alone.
Even animated penguins seem to know that.

What This Freshly-Turned-18-Year-Old was UP to


Supposedly, I had classes 'til nighttime. But miraculously, I was done by the morning. So, I spent the rest of the afternoon with a plan of tying balloons to my house with the help of some friends I have not been with for a long time.

The day ended with family, dinner, a cake I can't pronounce, and a cocktail glass.

And tomorrow plus the rest of the long weekend, my relatives are staying over to celebrate, because life is fun like that.

Then, the very second that's over, I have to hit the books since it's Finals Week afterwards. Because life is real like that.

You just have to make it happen.

Because We All Have to Deal with the 'D' Word

A text message in my inbox - the only one in it for that matter - says,
FUNNY but true THOUGHT-

In d PAST, nobody had a watch but everybody had time. Now evryone has a watch but NOBODY has time.

True, isnt it? ;)
Word. Especially when the term comes to an end and you have to deal with all those deadlines...
Here's a cool way at looking at it, though. :D
