To Boom and the other Booms of my life.
Good bye, Boom.
My hedgehog died today. I don’t know how old she was exactly, but I’ve had her for about a year and a week. Superman gave her (and her hubby) to me for my 20th birthday last year, when I really wanted hedgehogs. I named her Boom, and I named her husband Sonic.
We took care of them for a while, my family and I. We’d let them out of their cage and let them run around on the floor and...

Pretty reckless, but totes worth it.
It’s so difficult to love someone in silence.
You have to content yourself with loving them from afar; with little things that don’t really mean anything. You content yourself with smiles that weren’t meant for you, and with “accidentally” running into them in the halls; with knowing that you know who they are and almost everything about them when they don’t know a thing about you.
But the worst...

S: "Haha. Nagawa ko na yan. Hinulog ko sarili ko sa bangin kasi masarap lumipad, di ko naisip na pagbagsak ko sa lupa, sobrang sakit pala."

A Story (not) for the Kids
This is a story I wrote for my CW100 class. It hasn’t been through the workshop yet so it’s still pretty rough around the edges, but I’m happy with it for the most part. Yes, I used my other piece of fiction (The Other Side of Ridiculous) as the first vignette, albeit modified slightly for tense consistency, etc.

In the end, we’ll realize we’re just like everyone...
Let’s do meaningless things together.
It’ll be our little secret, (Even though I know that you’ll Tell your friends how it went— The same friends I know and love, Who’ve been through thick and thin— Because that’s just what boys do.)

Paper Trail
We both know that I’ll always see you And feel your heat in every dream. It doesn’t matter, now that we’ve twisted Ourselves into this hot, writhing mess Of limbs and shattered bones, Of questions and ill-regarded hope.
Some days, I buried myself in your scent Some days, you wasted away in mine.
I used to watch you through that open window And wonder how it would feel To be the one, for...

Don't read this, I'm just aksjndakwbeiwheb fuck...
Finally, finally moving along with my thesis.
I should’ve learned by now that I write best in the dead of the night. I know I should’ve finished this a month ago, but it’s just been so hard to concentrate. I’m so burned out, wtf.
It’s pretty depressing, actually, to think of how far behind I’ve let myself get. I didn’t finish my sketch for LArch1...

Haruki Murakami: On seeing the 100% perfect girl...
One beautiful April morning, on a narrow side street in Tokyo’s fashionable Harujuku neighborhood, I walked past the 100% perfect girl.
Tell you the truth, she’s not that good-looking. She doesn’t stand out in any way. Her clothes are nothing special. The back of her hair is still bent out of shape from sleep. She isn’t young, either - must be near thirty, not even close...

Can we step away from the game for a bit, and realize that this isn’t some silly plaything. We play not with tiny pieces on a chessboard; we play with people. Our decisions aren’t made by the roll of a die, and we certainly aren’t constrained by squares on a board. Because ultimately, you have to…

Tell me one more story, Like the ones we used to share. I’d love to hear the stories behind those scars And I’m sure I’d never get tired of listening.
Like the ones we used to share, These new hopes I’ve dreamt up mean everything to me. And I’m sure I’d never get tired of listening To the sweet sound of my own regret.

The Other Side of Ridiculous
His hands were cold, clammy. He didn’t know what to say. He watched her take another puff from the cigarette she held in her hands delicately—almost too delicately—and took a deep breath as well.
She cleared her throat, and pursed her lips. Throughout the months they’d been together, he recognized this habit of hers, of smacking her lips together, or biting down on her lower lip, when deep in...

I should have killed you when I had the chance.
When I had more control and you and I Were mere acquaintances, Meeting only every now and again, In the company of good friends who knew you well (Perhaps better than even I will know you now) Sharing drinks and wasting time.
I should have killed you when I had the chance.

It’s strange how everything works out, really.
When I was in the 5th Grade, I thought my life would end with every rough patch I went through. Every skinned knee and every chipped friendship sent my world crashing down on itself. It’s funny, remembering all the problems I had back then, the bullying, the puppy love, everything… when we’re young, we think we know...

I write letters, not love songs.
We try so hard to tell ourselves “No, it’s not the right time. Not yet.”; to convince ourselves that we haven’t fallen, that we haven’t lost. Everyday I tell myself the same thing, “No, it’s not the right time. Not yet.” I tell myself to “Wait,” to “Relax, and see where things go.” But everyday, it becomes clearer and clearer...
