Virtues... Virtues...
Yeah.. it has been a long time... Med life.. is really something...
Been a pretty disappointing 2nd Shifting for me... i failed BioChem exam.. and I'll be taking the remedials for sure.. Neuro ana... really caught me off guard... I studied well.. and yet i still failed... saw my class standing for Ethics.. and i need 3 points to pass... hope i pass this shifting.. or else i'll be taking remedials on the 23rd... this is so... disappointing...
Yes.. the title is about virtues.. And i know.. i'm failing bioethics.. But it doesnt mean that i dont learn anything from it... as far as i can say.. it really helps a lot now.. that i'm facing these trials.. These virtues that i need to live by being a medical student..
Persevere.. Courage.. Optimism.. Integrity.. and of course Joy :D and the most important Prayerfulness
Persevering despite these failing grades.. Courage in facing difficult terms, facts, etc.. Optimism that I will pass :D And yes i'm still enjoying! :D new knowledge feeing my thirst for it
although there are times when i think of quitting.. one of my friend is almost quitting because of the pressure of medicine life, getting low grades, etc.. different factors come to play and yes I too sometimes is on leaning to the path of quitting..
But there's this one thing that always stops me from thinking of it.. I think it's because I still have this passion burning inside of me "I want to be a doctor!" And i hope it stays burning until the end ;)
Oh yes, there's this one chinese song that i'm listening to.. title is 信仰 (Believing) by 王宏恩. the part of the song 我不知道要怎麼走 (親愛的孩子你有你的方向)狩獵為何不能活 (親愛的孩子山林給你力量)沒有你到地怎麼過 (親愛的孩子信仰給你希望).
The two bolded parts are my favorite. "I don't know where to go (my dear child, you have your path) Without you, how will i go through this (my dear child, believing will give you hope)" And my path is to be a doctor, and believing that I can and will go through that hard path is giving me the strength and hope that I will reach it someday...

Oblivious...
It's August! hmmm i guess my blog missed me.. well, blame it to Med School..
Recently my life has been pretty much in a fast forward mode.. Summer was just like an oblivion.. It went by so quickly that I had a little memory of it.. Then Med school started! And this really shocked me! Everything about it! It was like a bullet shot at me at my back!
Exams became our life.. Studying is slowly becoming a habit... I always have notes with me everywhere I go.. Going to school, going home, going out.. eating out.. etc... Things to do can't fit in even on a weekend.. It's TRUE, in Med School... Life minus Social life.. Things are meant to be sacrificed.. Even haircuts.. you have to set it! :P hehe
Going through this fast paced life was not easy... esp. for me.. My study habits for college is not working in med school...
My grades are going up then down... then up again.. then down... and this is not a gradual up and down... it's in a form of spiky up and down! I need direction.. I need a boost again.. I was not functioning as i was supposed to be functioning. I was not attaining what i ought to attain.. I know.. grades would not determine on how and what kind of a doctor you are going to be.. but let's face it.. we need grades to pass! It's not good grades = bad doctor.. it's not bad grades = still a doctor? bad doctor? good doctor? It's Good Grades = Good Doctor. There should be both.. ;)
I've been thinking on how to get back on track.. as of now.. i'm going to be a little O.C... just like doc Tim (UST med students know him).. I'll try to schedule and give me direction...
Wish me luck! Shifting Exams this week... Aug 9-15! :D
Oh yeah...
did i say that I LIKE EXAMS? :P

Enchanted Kingdom!
It has been ages since the last time that i've posted! haha :D
anyway, i just rested my brain and recharged the cells.
Sunday... was a LOOOOONG day! I've been awake for almost 16 hours!!! Woke up at around 5am and we went to Tagaytay. I know... it's tooo early. Dad's idea! heheh We took Lucky our puppy for a trip hehe he's the most LUCKY of the puppies! We always go to Tagaytay to buy some organic vegetables! Yeah! we eat healthy! :D
after that we arrived Manila at around 11 am. Then at around 12 noon mic fetched me to go to Enchanted Kingdom!
It has been 2-3 yrs since i last went there. Looked old too.. they haven't repainted some of the rides, esp the Flyin Fiesta! And THERE WERE LOTS OF PEOPLE!!! Almost all had the Exodus free tickets just like us! Since the free ticket was nearly expired! hehehe
The lines in the rides were sooo long! It would at least take you 45 mins to ride. Since the lines were long, we took a chance to try "extra charge" attractions like Exodus (ATV ride), Paintball, and Wallclimbing. Although i didn't try the wallclimbing hehehe not yet fit to try those hahaah and my arms were still hurting!
The ATV ride was the most fun experience that i had! Although u have to follow the marshalls to go around the obstacles, it was still fun! :D sayang! heheh sana walang marshall na lang. Paintball was fun too! First time too! :D
Btw, got super wet in RioGrande! hahaha parang nag-LAO SAI ako!!! ehehhe Butt ko ung basang basa! :D
What made this trip fun was meeting new people! Mic also invited lots of his Ateneo Celadon friends! :D and most of them were younger than us! hehe Anyway, being with young people will make u feel young too! ahhaha ;-) I'm OLD!! waaahhhh
yeah... THE MAGIC STAYS WITH YOU ;) guess i'll just "hold" on to that hahaah
some pics! ;)

Sumabay sa hangin
Akoy napatingin
Sa dalagang nababalot ng hiwaga...
Mapapansin kaya
Sa dami ng 'yong ginagawa
Kung kaagaw ko ang lahat
May pag asa bang makilala ka...
yeah... THE MAGIC STAYS WITH YOU ;) guess i'll just "hold" on to that hahaah

折磨
折磨
詞：柯呈雄
看你哭著轉身就走
我卻不知該說什麼
是我害你一個人難過
每次想到我就好心痛
為何命運如此捉弄
愛在手中又逃走
想說愛你卻開不了口
在你面前我變得懦弱
到底怎麼了 請你告訴我 讓我相信
在我們的愛情一道牆矗立 揮之不去
明明相愛卻不能長久
最後還是無法去承受
心若死了要怎麼救
想你恨你只更折磨
白天黑夜不停纏著我
每次想到心就會喊痛
到底怎麼了 請你告訴我 讓我相信
在我們的愛情一道牆矗立 揮之不去
明明相愛卻不能長久
最後還是無法去承受

Sibol Tayo!
Whew! The first week of the year was surely a blast! Been a very busy bee for a week!
Jan 2, i met with my SCL Docu team to make our docu presentation for the fieldtrip. Jan 3, had a meeting with my BioSoc Docu collegues to meet for our upcoming concert for Jan 6. It was official HALE was dropped of the lineup because they will be playing for Sharon's concert at that same day BUT STILL they were dropped out of Sharon's lineup. and it was official.. MOJOFLY was the main band. The bands playing were finalized Mojofly, Paramita, Up Dharma Down, Matilda, Estrus, Coitus, and Flange. Power lineup as i can say! Mwahahhaha now the problem we faced.. SELLING the tickets!
What was more stressing was our SCL prof was asking for the presentation! And the deadline was on FRIDAY!!! It was wednesday when she told us about that! ahhhhhh i'm dead! Then our thesis adviser also asked for the discussion on FRIDAY too!!! waaaahhhhh.... i didnt have the time to sell tickets and to advertise about the concert.. :( Good thing the biosoc team did a great job! it was only on the day on the concert where i had given 80% of my time! to save my "absentees" heheh sorry melle, tricia, fer and the rest of the docu committee if i wasnt able to attend to the meetings, etc. Kasi ba naman kung kelan un na ung week ng concert, tinambakan ako ng ibang works heheh don't worry the BioQuartz will be something to look forward to! (fingers crossed) DOCU DAMI NA NATING LEGACY! heheheh
This was our poster. Made by Me and Melle. OF COURSE on a MAC! :D see what Apple can do! hhahaha
This was the ticket design, courtesy of Monette. A great job indeed! IDOL!!!
and lastly, our backstage pass, which i designed on THE DAY of the concert. Morning, bangag and everything. And i myself was overwhelmed by the output. SIMPLE yet ELEGANT! whew!
and MAINGGIT kayo! I'm with Lougee, lead vocalist of Mojofly! Star strucked ako sobra! She's soooo beautiful! Crush ko siya sobra when i saw her personally! wow!!!!

Magmahal Muli..
a super nice song! sung by Say (my crush ssshhh) and Sam (darn u! lucky guy! u get to sing with her~ heheh)
Magmahal Muli
by Say and Sam
Umaasang magmamahal muli
Ang buong akala ko’y siya na
Kabiguan ang napala
Paghilom ng puso’y hindi madali
Ang malamang mahal mo’y
Walang pag ibig sayo
Ang umasang magmahal muli
Siyang magagawa
Huwag hanapin ang pag-ibig
Ito’y darating
Ito’y darating
Ito’y darating sayo
Hanggang sa tayo’y matuto
Sa kabiguan natamo
Kaya ako ay maghihintay
Sa tunay kong mahal
Isipin ang bukas at kalimutan ang nakalipas
Ang umasang magmahal muli
Siyang magagawa
Huwag hanapin ang pag-ibig
Ito’y darating sayo
Aking naranasan
Ohhhhhhh
Ang pagluha ng tulad sa ulan
Ang umasang magmamahal muli
Siyang magagawa
Huwag hanapin ang pag ibig
Ito’y darating
Ang umasang magmamahal muli
Siyang magagawa
Huwag hanapin ang pag ibig
Ito’y darating

Ito’y darating sayo

" I Can't Get No, Satisfaction! "
god! they sure can't! it's not that i'm bitter.. well, yeah i am.. but i just don't find it fair for other people like myself. we had a free for all recitation in our ETAR subject. People are really "scavenging" for points. Once is not just enough! They need more! sheesh! HELLO?! What about the others?!

Where Are You?
a song that i've heard over the radio.. "Where Are You" by Natalie and Justin Roman ;)
i'm singing this song... *sigh*
I know you're out there baby
Somewhere . .
There's someone out there for me (I know there's somebody out there)
I know she's waiting so patiently
Can you tell her name (Won't somebody tell me her name)
This lifelong search is going to drive me insane (That's right)
How does she laugh, how does she cry
Whats the color of her eyes
Does she even realize, I'm here
Where is she, where is she, where is she
Where is this beautiful girl
Who is she, who is she
Who's going to complete my world
Where is she, where is she, where is she
Where is this beautiful girl
Who is she, who is she
Who's going to complete my world
Da da da da da
Where are you . . .

How does she laugh, how does she cry
Whats the color of her eyes
Does she even realize, I'm here

I'm staring out at the sky (I see you baby)
Praying he will walk in my life
Where is the man of my dreams (I'm right here) yeah yeah
I'll wait forever, how silly it seems
How does he laugh, how does he cry
Whats the color of his eyes
Does he even realize, I'm here
Where is he, where is he, where is he
Where is this beautiful guy
Who is he, who is he
Who's going to take me so high
Where is he, where is he, where is he
Where is this beautiful guy
Who is he, who is he
Who's going to take me so high Lalalaa(Where are you)
Praying he will walk in my life
Where is the man of my dreams (I'm right here) yeah yeah

and the rest of the song...
There's someone out there for me (There's someone out there for me)
I know she's waiting so patiently (so patiently)
Can you tell me her name (can you tell me his name)
This lifelong search is going to drive me insane; Thats right

I know it might sound crazy but I think I love you
Lalalaalalaa
Where are you

Rants and raves for the movie Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
This 4th installment of the Harry potter movie series, in my opinion, is by far the best among the previous 3. The graphics and effects were very amazing. You'll definitely utter the "oohs" and "aahs" when you watch it. Will not go into the deeper details of the movie so as not to spoil the others who haven't watched it yet.
One thing I didn't like about the movie was it being FAST-PACED.. they showed the important parts and events of the book but they alloted short scenes for those. As they show the scenes from the book you'll be very excited to see what's going to happen but then it will be cut short. just like saying that this will happen etc. but WHAT ABOUT THE NON-READERS of the HP series? *sigh* This book is my most favorite among the 6 books of Harry Potter. Well, i guess i was expecting more from it coz this was my favorite.. hehe
anyway, Cho Chang... very beautiful... hehe but i guess Heart Evangelista would be better for that role.. Cho Chang's character spoke very little in the movie.. too disappointing.. Even Fleur and Krum.. I was expecting to hear their French and Russian "English" accent. But still too little script.. They stood out as extras... such a waste of talent..
But still, this movie is still worth the time and money to watch ;)

As they show the scenes from the book you'll be very excited to see what's going to happen but then it will be cut short. just like saying that this will happen etc. but WHAT ABOUT THE NON-READERS of the HP series? *sigh* This book is my most favorite among the 6 books of Harry Potter. Well, i guess i was expecting more from it coz this was my favorite.. hehe
anyway, Cho Chang... very beautiful... hehe but i guess Heart Evangelista would be better for that role.. Cho Chang's character spoke very little in the movie.. too disappointing.. Even Fleur and Krum.. I was expecting to hear their French and Russian "English" accent. But still too little script.. They stood out as extras... such a waste of talent..
But still, this movie is still worth the time and money to watch ;)

The Haunting of the Professors...
My last sem as a BS Bio Major has just started and guess what, it feels like i'm back to being a first year student again! The minor subject profs were our profs when we were in our first year. Ma'am nicholas for our SocioProblems (SCL110), Ma'am Gabo for our Phil. Gov't Cons. (PGC) and of course! my MOST FAVOURITE (in a sarcastic manner) prof, Sir Domingo for our Economics n Taxation (ETAR).
Still an assignment giver Nicholas.. gave us lots of assignments and she likes to always give role playing assignments! argh! we have our thesis to attend to and still you give us these first yr stuffs!?
Hands down for Ma'am Gabo, i think she has changed, still she likes students to recite but now she's become more fun and interesting. maybe this subject is her forte.
and now SIR Domingo! yeech! no change! he wants us to treat his subject like a SUPER MAJOR subject. Yes.. it's a minor subject but i treat it with equal importance as the majors but this profs makes it more important! Why can't he just follow the textbook?! He even asked us to research in the internet for 3 websites for some BASIC questions in Economics! and he said that he'll get the questions from the websites and not from the book!?! D_U_H!!!! why even ask us to buy the book if they'll be used only in the Major exams!? I DONT SEE THE POINT! and the internet is not the BEST source of FACTS! DOMINGO WAKE UP!!!! WAKE UP!!!
This sem's majors are Ecology and Animal Physiology. and all i can say is that we've got pretty interesting new profs. Sir Pavia for Ecology lec, Sir Afan n Pavia for the lab part, and Dr. Simeon for Animal Physio lec, Sir Papa and Ma'am Valmonte for the lab part. Sir pavia's class is very interesting, he takes out the context of the book and broaden it with some practical applications. It's pretty good, and I'm LEARNING! Well i guess Ecology will be one of the subjects that I will enjoy.
Dr. Simeon, i saw her as a terrorist. Really, she's pretty scary esp. her loud booming voice. But i can't really say more about her, so far our classes with her is pretty fun too, she tells jokes but what's scary is that she wants the class to always participate in the discussion ...
All i can say for the lab part of the two lectures is that it will be a very fun and interesting lab works for the whole sem! We've got GOOD profs for them :D

Honey! The puppies are here!!! :D
After two months of pregnancy, our dog, Xiao Ru, gave birth today Nov. 5, 2005 to seven (7) HEALTHY puppies! :D
It's been a tiring day! Can't sleep last night because Xiao Ru was panting so hard, a sign that she is giving birth. I woke up at 7 and there she was.. already have given birth to 2 puppies. The sad thing was the two puppies were stuck in the "holes" of the cage. I got so nervous.. my parents went out and i was left alone. The puppies were crying soo loud and Xiao Ru was whining and kept on pushing the puppies out of the holes of the cage. Luckily, i didnt panic and turned the puppies head around and they stucked heads were pulled out. whew! I thought the two puppies were goners!!! So after that we transfered them to a more open space so that the incident won't happen on the next birth.
after an hour, another puppy came out. then 3 hours have passed wala pa rin lumalabas kaya we called a Vet.. sabi niya ganun daw then un may lumabas na isa then after the vet left another one was born. then 6th puppy..
the 7th one died... may God bless his soul.. so sad..
then the 8th one was born.. :D We now have a total of 7 puppies! :D don't know kung meron pa.. still waiting....
So tired.. ako nagassist kay Xiao Ru to give birth hehe im practicing my medical skills with a DOG!!! tapos obstetrics pa ito! hehe ano ba ito! hehe ito ba ung specialize ko sa Medicine heheh baka walang magpagamot sa akin hehehe
Although it was tiring, i found it fulfilling in my part. First time in my life that i saw an animal giving birth. It was a very nice experience. at least when i have my internship in Med, i wont get shock sa emergency room ng obstetrics part ;)
Oh yah, 4 girls 3 boys ;)
some pics
a very caring mother
tired...
getting some sleep before another one comes out.. keep busy little pups!

Back to Basics
Just changed the template and now i'm using Blogspot's own template. I guess i like this better than my previous template :)
whew... Finals is over. the First Sem is also over. i'll be graduating in a few months. this is getting pretty scary and exciting.
So what's keeping me busy now that the sem's oveR?
Well.. all i do is just relax. Have downloaded some US series and movies from down under. And yes.. i MISSed a lot!
Already done watching Corpse Bride and it was good. although the copy that i downloaded wasnt that clear but hey i can't complain. The movie was ok. It was a story about a man getting marriend the next day to a woman he doesnt even know. But at the moment they met they got to like each other. But things during their wedding rehearsal didnt end up well and the man ran away and eventually practiced his line and unknowingly inserted the wedding ring to a DEAD person's fingers. Well you'll get the story from here and i dont want to spoil the fun. :D
What was interesting with this movie was that it was the first animated movie using Stop Motion Animation Techniques.. So DUH what is it? Well, this technique uses photos. The puppets movements are shot using a still camera. so this means they change the puppet's posture, action, etc. using a camera. Then they put everything together in a computer and voila you got a movie!

as quoted from Apple.com website
The culmination of a 10-year engagement, “Corpse Bride,” directed by Tim Burton and Mike Johnson, is a revolutionary marriage of stop-motion animation techniques, digital photography and digital movie editing. Shot with Canon digital cameras and edited with Final Cut Pro on Power Mac G5s at Three Mills Studios in London, the film marks the first time stop-motion animation has been shot in digital.Oh yes.. did I tell you that this was made on MacOS X? hehe

HeartBeats...
It has been a while... missed posting... been only posting lyrics of songs and some interesting "articles"
anyway.. so what's up for me?
all i can say is S-T-R-E-S-S...
I really have no time for myself, well, not entirely.. but all i do when i go online is to just check my mail, then some forums that i frequent.. BNCXE n Philmug.. and that's it.. sometimes i just download songs..
i miss watching the movies.. that last that i've watched so far was The Longest Yard. It was a good movie. I enjoyed it. And i watched it with my thesis group mates! :D
Anyway, I just finished downloading The Corpse Bride but i havent really started watching it. Although i opened it once just to check if the quality was ok. Guess I'll be watching it next friday.. Maybe my ONLY rest day Next week. Coz the week after that.. FINALS!
Studies... Well, so far so good.. although most og my major subjects are on the rocks.. near passing.. My quizzes so far this finals period are ok, except for Genetics and Embryo.. did a big booboos on the first quizzes.
Genetics lab.. a bit stressing... crossing/breeding fruit flies was not an easy job... we have to isolate VIRGIN females... argh already did three crosses but they died.. luckily, the last one that i did was successful. On it's 4th day, there are larvae ! Yippee! Crossing my fingers now... hope it continues..
BioSoc latest project.. Hale Concert... APPROVED!!! NOw... reserving the Med Auditorium....
BioQuartz 2nd release is on the way... just waiting for the articles... :D
It's been 5 months since i switched to Mac! :D And i have no regrets... although one regret is that it really is "expensive" owning one... the range of accessories available are just too hard to resist! hehe Been using the Mighty Mouse for a week now. And so far, i'm loving it, no regrets! Very light! Even lighter than my old "portable" mouse. Recently bought 3M BumpOn. A cheaper alternative of the SpeedBalls.. but i have used it yet..
What can i really say in switching... I think i really made the right decision :) I've been working more effectively. It NEVER crashed.. in 5 straight months! before when i make a powerpoint presentation i would really have to save the work once in every slide coz there is a 70% chance that it will just crash. now, i dont really have to worry about saving my work every now and then as i work through it. Mac never fails to surprise me everyday.. now if only Yahoo would update the YM for Mac..... ;)
Just heard my parents love story ;) will post them on my next update! :D I still have to do my SCL9 project...

You're Beautiful...
heard this song on the radio.. such a nice song... You're Beautiful by James Blunt :)
a very nice song,... indeed... *sigh*
a very nice song,... indeed... *sigh*
My life is brilliant.
My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I'm sure.
She smiled at me on the subway.
She was with another man.
But I won't lose no sleep on that,
'Cause I've got a plan.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.
Yeah, she caught my eye,
As I walked on by
She could see from my face that I was,
fucking high,
And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last till the end.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful it's true
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
You're beautiful, You're beautiful.
But it's time to face the truth
I will never be with you

A LESSON IN LETTING GO
By T. D. Jakes
There are people who can walk away from you.
And hear me when I tell you this! When people can
walk away from you: let them walk. I don't want you
to try to talk another person into staying with you,
loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to
see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the
phone. When people can walk away from you let
them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that
left. The bible said that, they came out from us that it
might be made manifest that they were not for us.
For had they been of us, no doubt they would have
continued with us. [1 John 2:19] People leave you
because they are not joined to you. And if they are not
joined to you, you can't make them stay. Let them
go. And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person it
just means that their part in the story is over. And
you've got to know when people's part in your story is
over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead.
You've got to know when it's dead. You've got to
know when it's over. Let me tell you something. I've
got the gift of good-bye. It's the tenth spiritual gift, I
believe in good-bye. It's not that I'm hateful, it's that
I'm faithful, and I know whatever God means for me
to have He'll give it to me. And if it takes too much
sweat I don't need it. Stop begging people to stay.
Let them go!! If you are holding on to something that
doesn't belong to you and was never intended for
your life, then you need to...... LET IT GO!!! If you are
holding on to past hurts and pains...... LET IT GO!!! If
someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see
your worth..... LET IT GO!!! If someone has angered
you....... LET IT GO!!! If you are holding on to some
thoughts of evil and revenge...... LET IT GO!!! If you
are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction......
LET IT GO!!! If you are holding on to a job that no
longer meets your needs or talents...... LET IT GO!!!
If you have a bad attitude....... LET IT GO!!! If you
keep judging others to make yourself feel better......
LET IT GO!!! If you're stuck in the past and God is
trying to take you to a new level in Him...... LET IT
GO!!! If you are struggling with the healing of a
broken relationship....... LET IT GO!!! If you keep
trying to help someone who won't even try to help
themselves...... LET IT GO!!! If you're feeling
depressed and stressed......... LET IT GO!!! If there
is a particular situation that you are so used to
handling yourself and God is saying "take your hands
off of it," then you need to...... LET IT GO!!! Let the
past be the past. Forget the former things. GOD is
doing a new thing for 2005!!! LET IT GO!!! Get
Right or Get Left think about it, and then.... LET IT
GO!!! "The Battle is the Lord's!"

New look...
changed some things like the banner of my blog, changed the colour too. looks better although i have to do some tweaking, but this will do the meantime :D
What is RSS?
RSS is a family of XML file formats for web syndication used by (amongst other things) news websites and weblogs. The abbreviation is used to refer to the following standards:
* Rich Site Summary (RSS 0.91)
* RDF Site Summary (RSS 0.9 and 1.0)
* Really Simple Syndication (RSS 2.0)
The technology behind RSS allows you to subscribe to websites that have provided RSS feeds, these are typically sites that change or add content regularly. To use this technology you need to set up some type of aggregation service. Think of this aggregation service as your personal mailbox. You then have to subscribe to the sites that you want to get updates on. Unlike typical subscriptions to pulp-based newspapers and magazines, your RSS subscriptions are free, but they typically only give you a line or two of each article or post along with a link to the full article or post.
The RSS formats provide web content or summaries of web content together with links to the full versions of the content, and other meta-data. This information is delivered as an XML file called RSS feed, webfeed, RSS stream, or RSS channel. In addition to facilitating syndication, RSS allows a website's frequent readers to track updates on the site using a news aggregator.

Some songs i like
가면 (Persona)
목에 메어 와서 눈물이 흘러서 눈앞이 흐려서 걸을 수 없어서
조금씩 내게 멀어지는 널 붙잡아낼 힘조차도 부를 수도 없었나봐
찢겨져 흩어진 이미 썩어버린 못쓰게 돼버린 내 가슴으로 널
한번도 웃게 하지 못한 건 내 미쳐버린 집착이란 걸
*날 돌아보지 마 뒤돌아보지 마 그대로 뛰어가 날 잊고 살아가
멀리 조금 더 멀리 내게서 더 멀리 도망가
이렇게 못난 날 이렇게 못된 날 어리석었던 날 잘 떠나간 거야
추억은 하지 마 기억도 하지 마 차라리 죽을 만큼 외롭더라도
잘 지내라는 말 미안하다는 말 행복했었단 말 날 떠나려면
날 차라리 여기서 죽이고 가 니가 없인 하루하루 죽어갈 내 모습인 걸
알잖아 너도 알고 있잖아 이미 돌아갈 수 없을 만큼
너를 닮아버린 나는 어떻게 도대체 어떻게 왜 날 떠나려고 하니 왜
and my most fav..
마비 (Paralysis)
보여주기 싫었어 지금 나의 모습을 이런 바보 바보 바보 같은 모습을
너무나 차가웠던 너무나 냉정했던 너의 헤어지잔 말조차 못 잊는
너만을 바라보는 이런 나를 모르는 그런 바보 바보 바보 같은 모습을
왜 자꾸 떠올리고 왜 자꾸 아파하고 어리석은 헛된 바램들뿐인지
*눈을 뜰 수 없어서 들을 수가 없어서 숨쉬는 것조차도 너 없인 할 수 없었어
마지막을 향했던 미치도록 차갑던 니 눈빛이 거짓말 같게도 나를 살게 해
지독히도 길었던 모질게도 아팠던 나의 바보 바보 바보 같던 이별이
이 자리에 멈춰선 나를 마비시켜서 한걸음도 움직일 수 가 없었어
눈을 뜰 수 없어서 들을 수가 없어서 숨쉬는 것조차도 너 없인 할 수 없었어
마지막을 향했던 미치도록 차갑던 니 눈빛이 거짓말 같게도 나를 살게 해
목에 메어 와서 눈물이 흘러서 눈앞이 흐려서 걸을 수 없어서
조금씩 내게 멀어지는 널 붙잡아낼 힘조차도 부를 수도 없었나봐
찢겨져 흩어진 이미 썩어버린 못쓰게 돼버린 내 가슴으로 널
한번도 웃게 하지 못한 건 내 미쳐버린 집착이란 걸
*날 돌아보지 마 뒤돌아보지 마 그대로 뛰어가 날 잊고 살아가
멀리 조금 더 멀리 내게서 더 멀리 도망가
이렇게 못난 날 이렇게 못된 날 어리석었던 날 잘 떠나간 거야
추억은 하지 마 기억도 하지 마 차라리 죽을 만큼 외롭더라도
잘 지내라는 말 미안하다는 말 행복했었단 말 날 떠나려면
날 차라리 여기서 죽이고 가 니가 없인 하루하루 죽어갈 내 모습인 걸
알잖아 너도 알고 있잖아 이미 돌아갈 수 없을 만큼
너를 닮아버린 나는 어떻게 도대체 어떻게 왜 날 떠나려고 하니 왜
and my most fav..

Shopping... hehe
I know.. it's unlikely of a guy to shop hehe but what the heck! it was my bday last wednesday! hehe so what did i do today? after a half tiring day helping here around the house, i went to Megamall to buy some things for myself. A little present for myself. a breather for everything for the past 3 months!
Bought myself a new polo, and a new pair of shoes. Well, the shoes part was a gift from my Uncle coz he gave me a 1000 pesos Gift certificate from Girbaud. hehe :D so more or less got it for free. First time to buy something from Folded N Hung shop. Well, today was the shops opening in Megamall so they had this little fashion show. the girls were HOT! whew! hehe too bad one of the girl i liked had a boyfriend. hehe Their shirts are good, definitely going to buy from there again. If i have money again. Lastly, bought 2 new CDs. been awhile since i bought CDs. One was my favorite band, U TURN's, new album, BY REQUEST. and the second one was my all time favorite artist Craig David, The Story Goes... the album came out 2 days before my bday! Well, after today, I'm broke again! need to save up!!!

One Hell of a Week
Exams over... its been a week... 3 days of Major Subjects' Exams... Comparative Embryology, Genetics, and Cell and Molecular Biology... ranking them by hard to hardest... CaMBio was the hardest of them all... followed by Genetics... then Embryo... Im really hoping that i did well... hopefully... dont want to talk about the exams here anymore... hehehe
Pissed off...
Been in UST for half the day... today (friday) had to get a paper signed by our Dept's Chair then have it approved by the Chem Dept's Chair... we had our first taste last week when we wrote a letter to borrow the PORTABLE pH meter from the Dept of Chemistry but the Chair refused to lend it to us... DARN... then we told our thesis adviser, Sir Papa, about it, he said that we write it again and have it NOTED by the Bio Dept Chair. So we did... had it signed and had it approved... but STILL to no luck... the CHEM DEPT Chair didnt approve it... " I won't allow it! I won't allow it to be taken outside the UST!" In such a bad tone and manner... is that what a Chair should act?! she should have said it in a nicer way! and what's the use of a PORTABLE pH Meter!?!?!? PORTABLE.... that's why it can be taken outside and used in the field!!! PORTABLE!
*sigh* i really hope all their PORTABLE pH meter will be BROKEN! Bad Karma for that Dept. of Chem chair...
Pissed off #2
better not tell about it here heheh but im really pissed off.. thinking of quitting... am i still part of it!? Or U want to do it all !?
Tom.. we'll be having our 2nd and last sampling in Taal Lake, Balete, Batangas for our Thesis.. we'll be leaving by 3pm... hopefully we finish by Sunday evening... 24 hr sampling... :(( Wish us luck!!!

Visitacion de los dioses... / Visitation of the gods
Aug 2 to 4, 2005... the PAASCU representatives will be coming to the UST College of Science for Reacreditation.
I saw many changes in our college which started last summer. Renovations renovations renovations.. repaint repaint repaint...
I have no qualms about it. I thought of it as a good thing that ever happened to our college.
But the only thing that i really didnt like was the "scripted" instructions... They gave out leaflets that contained the Vission Mission of the College.. This was... very wrong... in my opinion.. The first time I entered the College, every classroom had a Vission Mission poster. But when i reached second year, these posters were gone.. And now they gave it to us so that we would be INFORMED... I mean.. they should have given these to first years every year! Not only when some people would check our College... Now some profs were asking us to KNOW and BRING the course outlines. At least there were some who told us to act as if it was just another ordinary classroom session.
Awhile ago, I saw some new boxes which contained first aid kits in every laboratory... I was surprised... why ONLY now?
Really.. I have nothing against these things but WHY ONLY NOW? These should have been done before.. And now they are now being very strict with the rules and regulations of the College? It's really disheartening.. OUr college had attained the highest Level of accreditation (Level III). This year was only a RE-accreditation.. I was wondering when the College reached that level was it only a "show" too? Was it only at those days that the college was TRULY a LEVEL III College? Sigh... I wished that some students would now REALLY follow...
The title.. last year, we had a story in Lit 102 which was also titled "Visitation of the gods." It also depicted the same theme as what was happening now in our College. The school in the story also changed some things. They put up posters about the lessons in every classroom.. The teachers became "plastic." BUt there was one teacher who thought of it as a show but in the end she also ended up being one of the "plastic" teachers...
I hope that this won't happen to us.. I hope that after the 3-day inspection, everything would go on... The "script" becoming the "routine"....

Random HeartBeats...
#1...
2 weeks of exams... felt like hell... i feel very bad for the outcomes of the exams were not as what i expected it to be.. Embryo Lab practical.. i got a teenager score over 40.. *sigh* then monday came... Cell and Molecular Bio Lec Long quiz... it WAS literally a LONG quiz... felt like i was taking the Prelim exam.. almost 120 items... 9 items essay which was all "i dont know where he got that" questions... and each was a 5 point question and some items were divided into 3 items which was also 5 points each... it really s**ked.. i felt so stupid while answering every question... then came Embryo Lec quiz.. another quiz from hell... but at least it was not as hard as the CaMBio quiz.. all went well.. i hope i got what i think i should get hehe... then lastly.. Genetics Lec!!! Darn...... it was a pretty easy quiz in disguise.. shouldve studied the names wholeheartedly because there was a 22-item part which were all names and their achievments.. darn... although i got more than half of it but still i did not pass the quiz...
what i think... STUDY HARDER!!! know ur priorities!
#2
BioQuartz was published..... AT LAST... after weeks and weeks of revising.. finally.. although there were some flaws in it.. like the dates of activities.. some minor errors in the news... and yes it is now in a newsprint paper.. not the whitish paper we used before.. We are just going with the flow of economy.. hehe
keener eye for errors.. ultimate follow ups when it comes to dates..
#3
July... one month more.. and we will be doing our second sampling for our thesis.. we barely finished half of 76 bottles... but now.. only 5 bottles left.. im so grateful.. shouldve prioritized it before.. earlier.. i was scared for i thought that we wont finish it this month.. because of the rains of quizzes that strucked us..
know your priorities...
#4
bought some new clothes hehe sort of a breather for everything that happened in the past few months.. can't believe that Large-sized shirt fits me !!! bought 3 shirts from Blue Soda.. i was shocked when the saleslady told me that the largest size was Large.. i was disheartened coz i wear an XL shirt.. and i liked their shirts.. but the saleslady insisted that i try the shirts.. so off i go.. as i put the clothes on.. it didnt fit.. i was disheartened again... then when i looked at the size it was a Medium.. hehe so i told the saleslady that she gave me a Medium... then i tried the L and it fits!!! i felt like crying (but didnt cry, just to make this post as creative as possible hehe ;) ) happy as i was.. i immediately chose another one and a polo.. i even asked if the sizes were the same.. but unfortunately they werent.. but still she insisted me to try it.. hehe and VOILA! they all fit! I felt like bursting into tears (hehe)
LOSE MORE WEIGHT! hehe

priorities... priorities...priorities...
it's not that im driving myself away from org responsibilities but sometimes you should know ur priorities.. 4th yr is not an easy matter, thesis.. graduation..,.. and i know that what i joined into isnt a small matter too... still.. i have to set my priorities.. it's the last year that i'll be spending time with my college friends... and i just dont want this year to become blunt and maybe even loose the connections with my friends just because of some other things.. friends are forever... studies too are forever...
and some things are just way out of hand..

Almost Perfect by Ingram Hill
Maybe her eyes are just a little bit red
Almost all the time
Maybe her hair, it smells like cigarettes
When I climb into bed with her at night
She don't want to try
But this just feels so right
She's almost perfect
She's so close to being everything
She's almost perfect
But she's not, she's not
Maybe she knows she drives me crazy
Just bats her eyes like she's my baby
Maybe she's quick to let her tongue fly at me
She's not the most proper lady
She don't want to try
But this just feels so right
She's almost perfect
She's so close to being everything
She's almost perfect
But she's not, she's not
I'm the one to blame
I know I caused this crash
So now I wander in this mess
Into this lake of sour mashed
Through my head the notion that
Maybe she's not quite honest with me
Almost all the time
Maybe I know there's someone else in her life
When I climb into bed with her at night
She's almost perfect
She's so close to being everything
She's almost perfect
But she's not
She's not
She's not
She's almost perfect
She's so close to being everything
She's almost perfect
But she's not
She's not mine
(mine, mine)

"You've got to find what you love" by Steve Jobs a very insprational speech
I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. I never graduated from college. Truth be told, this is the closest I've ever gotten to a college graduation. Today I want to tell you three stories from my life. That's it. No big deal. Just three stories.
The first story is about connecting the dots.
I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit. So why did I drop out?
It started before I was born. My biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: "We have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?" They said: "Of course." My biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption papers. She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would someday go to college.
And 17 years later I did go to college. But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents' savings were being spent on my college tuition. After six months, I couldn't see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I ever made. The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didn't interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting.
It wasn't all romantic. I didn't have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends' rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5¢ deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I loved it. And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on. Let me give you one example:
Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country. Throughout the campus every poster, every label on every drawer, was beautifully hand calligraphed. Because I had dropped out and didn't have to take the normal classes, I decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this. I learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great. It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can't capture, and I found it fascinating.
None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. It was the first computer with beautiful typography. If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied the Mac, its likely that no personal computer would have them. If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.
Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something - your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.
My second story is about love and loss.
I was lucky – I found what I loved to do early in life. Woz and I started Apple in my parents garage when I was 20. We worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees. We had just released our finest creation - the Macintosh - a year earlier, and I had just turned 30. And then I got fired. How can you get fired from a company you started? Well, as Apple grew we hired someone who I thought was very talented to run the company with me, and for the first year or so things went well. But then our visions of the future began to diverge and eventually we had a falling out. When we did, our Board of Directors sided with him. So at 30 I was out. And very publicly out. What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.
I really didn't know what to do for a few months. I felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down - that I had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me. I met with David Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly. I was a very public failure, and I even thought about running away from the valley. But something slowly began to dawn on me – I still loved what I did. The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit. I had been rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.
I didn't see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.
During the next five years, I started a company named NeXT, another company named Pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife. Pixar went on to create the worlds first computer animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT, I retuned to Apple, and the technology we developed at NeXT is at the heart of Apple's current renaissance. And Laurene and I have a wonderful family together.
I'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn't been fired from Apple. It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle.
My third story is about death.
When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: "If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right." It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.
Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything – all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.
About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I had a scan at 7:30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas. I didn't even know what a pancreas was. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months. My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctor's code for prepare to die. It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you'd have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months. It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family. It means to say your goodbyes.
I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that evening I had a biopsy, where they stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my stomach and into my intestines, put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor. I was sedated, but my wife, who was there, told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope the doctors started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery. I had the surgery and I'm fine now.
This was the closest I've been to facing death, and I hope its the closest I get for a few more decades. Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept:
No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog, which was one of the bibles of my generation. It was created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic touch. This was in the late 1960's, before personal computers and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and polaroid cameras. It was sort of like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.
Stewart and his team put out several issues of The Whole Earth Catalog, and then when it had run its course, they put out a final issue. It was the mid-1970s, and I was your age. On the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous. Beneath it were the words: "Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish." It was their farewell message as they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. And I have always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.
Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.
Thank you all very much.
The first story is about connecting the dots.
I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit. So why did I drop out?
It started before I was born. My biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: "We have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?" They said: "Of course." My biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption papers. She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would someday go to college.
And 17 years later I did go to college. But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents' savings were being spent on my college tuition. After six months, I couldn't see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I ever made. The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didn't interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting.
It wasn't all romantic. I didn't have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends' rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5¢ deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I loved it. And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on. Let me give you one example:
Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country. Throughout the campus every poster, every label on every drawer, was beautifully hand calligraphed. Because I had dropped out and didn't have to take the normal classes, I decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this. I learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great. It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can't capture, and I found it fascinating.
None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. It was the first computer with beautiful typography. If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied the Mac, its likely that no personal computer would have them. If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.
Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something - your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.
My second story is about love and loss.

I'm Sorry by Ben Adams
finally! he came up with a single! hehe been a fan of a1 ever since ;) nice song
Sorry
[Verse 1]
It’s like apocalypse now
The guilt rains down like bullets from a cloud
But the words come out
Though I try to speak
Your gonna hate me now
Its like a ridcule curse
Imagine hurt on a scale unheard
Well the truth is worse
Gotta face the music
Cos its getting loud
Wish I could have stopped to think about it
Jumped right in,
In anger now I think I put the last nail in the coffin
My last chance this word I’m dropping
[Chorus]
Sorry
For the mess I made
I f***ed it up never can be saved
Im sorry
I wish I could take you back
I would if I could but I cant do that
Im sorry
Im down on my knees
I know I failed spectacularly
Im sorry
That I stooped so low
Just hear me out before you go
[Verse 2]
Now we’re face to face
I see your tears
And I feel disgraced
Hang my head in shame
Need I even ask
Do you hate me now?
There's two scenario's
(One)
You cut and you run
(Two)
You forgive what I’ve done
But even if its in your heart to
What I did I can never
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Take it back.....
Its like apocalypse now, now, now, now..
The guilt rains down, down, down ,down..
I wish I could have stopped to think about it
Jumped right in,
in anger now I think I put the last nail in the coffin
My last chance this word I’m dropping
[Verse 1]
It’s like apocalypse now
The guilt rains down like bullets from a cloud
But the words come out
Though I try to speak
Your gonna hate me now
Its like a ridcule curse
Imagine hurt on a scale unheard
Well the truth is worse
Gotta face the music
Cos its getting loud
Wish I could have stopped to think about it
Jumped right in,
In anger now I think I put the last nail in the coffin
My last chance this word I’m dropping
[Chorus]
Sorry
For the mess I made
I f***ed it up never can be saved
