Out of my League

Friday, May 30th, 2008

For days now, there’s one song that I’ve been playing on the player and it’s Out of my League by Stephen Speaks. Though the song is from a man to a woman, still I love it. I just hope that one day my boyfriend (when I have one) will sing this to me. ^_^

The song just keep playing in my head and I can’t get through this. My favorite part of the song, but I changed the subject of the lyrics since I’m a woman, haha…It goes this way: “‘Cause I love him with all that I am, and my voice shakes along with my hand. ‘Cause he’s all that I see and he’s all that I need and I’m out of my league once again…

Anyway try to listen to it. Here’s a video of the band singing the acoustic version:

it’s her hair and her eyes today
that just simply take me away
and the feeling that i’m falling further in love
makes me shiver but in a good way
all the times i have sat and stared
as she thoughtfully thumbs through her hair
and she purses her lips, bats her eyes as she plays,
with me sitting there slack-jawed and nothing to say
coz i love her with all that i am
and my voice shakes along with my hands
coz she’s all that I see and she’s all that I need
and i’m out of my league once again

it’s a masterful melody when she calls out my name to me
as the world spins around her she laughs, rolls her eyes
and i feel like i’m falling but it’s no surprise
coz i love her with all that i am
and my voice shakes along with my hands
cause it’s frightening to be swimming in this strange sea
but i’d rather be here than on land
yes she’s all that i see and she’s all that i need
and i’m out of my league once again

it’s her hair and her eyes today
that just simply take me away
and the feeling that i’m falling further in love
makes me shiver but in a good way
all the times i have sat and stared
as she thoughtfully thumbs through her hair
and she purses her lips, bats her eyes as she plays,
with me sitting there slack-jawed and nothing to say
coz i love her with all that i am
and my voice shakes along with my hands
cause it’s frightening to be swimming in this strange sea
but i’d rather be here than on land
yes she’s all that i see and she’s all that i need
and i’m out of my league once again


David Cook is the New American Idol

Thursday, May 22nd, 2008

I’m so happy that my bet won. Yes, David Cook won by 12 million over the other David (Archuleta). He really deserves to win.

Here’s the video of the announcement and David Cook singing Time of my Life:

Time of my Life
I’ve been waiting for my dreams
To turn into something
I could believe in
And looking for that
Magic rainbow
On the horizon
I couldn’t see it
Until I let go
Gave into love and watched all the bitterness burn
Now I’m coming alive
Body and soul
And feelin’ my world start to turn

And I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time
To be more than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life

Holding onto things that vanished
Into the air
Left me in pieces
But now I’m rising from the ashes
Finding my wings
And all that I needed
Was there all along
Within my reach
As close as the beat of my heart

So I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life

And I’m out on the edge of forever
Ready to run
I’m keeping my feet on the ground
My arms open wide
My face to the sun

I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
This is the time
This is the time of my life.
This is the time of my life.


When Children Speak Up Their Minds

Thursday, May 22nd, 2008

Yesterday while waiting for the NBA game, I watched Doraemon. Doraemon by the way is an animated Japanese TV show.  The story is about a robotic cat (Doraemon) that comes from the 22nd century. He comes to 20th century and stays with Nobi Family. The Nobis love Doraemon very much. So Doraemon always help the Nobis with the devices from 22nd century. (more…)


American Idol Final 2

Saturday, May 17th, 2008

 

Who’s it gonna be? The Balladeer or the Rocker?

David Cook or David Archuleta? If you ask me, I’m with Cook. ^_^

Article taken from USA Today:

LOS ANGELES — When Ryan Seacrest announced the names of American Idol’s two finalists Wednesday, each thought he was going to hear another’s name.

“I couldn’t believe it. I thought he was going to say David Cook,” says David Archuleta, 17, named the first finalist as Cook and Syesha Mercado awaited their verdict.

During an interview shortly after the show, Archuleta said: “I just feel like shock. Am I really in the top two of American Idol?”

Cook, 25, says he thought he would be going home. “I thought my ticket was punched. I honestly did,” he says. “Syesha is an amazing performer, and she really hit her stride in the last two, three, four weeks.”

What kind of fruit am I?

Wednesday, May 14th, 2008

Last Friday or should I say early Saturday morning we had no internet connection that was around 1 am. So the Admin decided that the newbies will introduce themselves to everyone. While one of my colleagues asked them “If you are to choose, what kind of fruit will you be?”. Some answered mangoe, apple, banana, etc.

When me and my friend Paul were waiting for a jeepney going home, we asked each other that same question.  His answer was an Apple while mine was Strawberry. He then said that strawberry can be easily get soft (rotten) and will not be in good taste if stays longer. So I came to think… (more…)

Last Sunday May 11, Mother’s day had come once again to celebrate. Another day to remember our Moms.

As my Mother’s Day present to my Nanay (Mother) I took her to the Mall, we watched movie and have something to eat…my treat, just the two of us. It’s my way of thanking her for the wonderful years of hard work for the four of us. My mother is a simple woman, hard working, understanding and pretty like me! haha..

There’s so many things that I want to tell my Nanay, but i know that even if I won’t tell her verbally, she knows. I love her so much!

I Love You Nanay… You are my number 1 fan! ^_^


Childhood Memories

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

I feel so bad lately because the place that me and my childhood friends was bought by someone whom I don’t know. I’m not sad because it was bought, actually it’s all about the memories.

I’m talking about the vacant lot just outside our house. Before, the lot was a place where everyone can go and play. It has trees, a pond with fishes in it and because it’s quite wide, grasses are everywhere. We used to play there. My family even fall for this place. The owner once said that we are free to use the place while they’re looking for a buyer. We’re like the caretaker of that vacant place. (more…)


Harmful Food for Your Dog’s Health

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

If you care about your dog health and you want them to live the longest, healthiest life possible, it is critical that you know what you should and what you should not be feeding to them. Dogs have different metabolism compared to humans and feeding them with foods that we enjoy can be very fatal.

Here are some of the common food items that should not be given to your dogs, as they have been found to be either directly or indirectly “toxic” to them: (more…)


Keeping The Bond Strong

Monday, May 5th, 2008

“Blood is thicker than water” they say, and I surely agree.

Living in a simple life with good health each day is the one of the things that I thank God everyday. Growing up with my three (older) brothers measn so much to me. Sometimes I feel so special but sometimes I feel like an outcast. I guess it’s because they share most of the things together while I have none.

Misunderstanding, fighting over things and disappointment can never be erase in siblings. There are times when I feel so bad to one of them and I will just go inside my room, unwind and cool down. All the understanding and patience are in me, well, since I am the youngest. That’s always my part. *sigh* (more…)
