it was so fast! it came and eventually it's going to end!???????
that i don't know. super hard! when you are caught up in things with many options. the fears, the tears, the sadness... one thing i definitely ask my self everyday things come my mind is---- WHY ME??????
and i just hope that march will be here so soon as for me to know where i will be after these incidents... but one thing i am sure of totally, i will treasure this. and if God will give me another moment to live i will still prefer having you again (after all the things we had way before this stupid beating came), but correct the things that happened. i am not saying that the things happened and happening are wrong. but a friend, my best friend- marriane told me, that things are not yet ok if it ends in a bad way. so certainly there is still a brighter rainbow after! my pride who is my super bestiest friend is telling me that "sana wala na lang ni nahitabo"...
cry? im done with that
it haunts me--- i run
i run---no where,
and that gun is just the sole reason to end this fun
help me
slap me
or eventually kill me...
i don't want to entertain this
i don't
but it comes
it runs into my nerves
will i entertain others
and that will be an additional burden
hope not!
o.a ang die, but kung di ra jud sala ay wa na gugmang giatay!
LECHE!

i did this when i was in my third week of insanity. Late afternoon when dumaguete was preparing herself for the buglasan and thye unigames...i did this at chantily with thier delicious burger and coffee.. the first time i enjoyed cape... wah!!
with tears hahay... here it goes...
(no title yet)
As i close my eyes
I see the remnants of the past
pain leading to insane
could not sleep but i just want to weep
for you are the only love of my life, oh baby you're so deep
* stop cursing baby coz i'm missing you badly
totally in pain, insane
help me and please explain
Chorus:
the day you said good bye
i asked myself why
i want you to stay
for we have a lot to say
and i pray pray pray
you'll be back like what we have yesterday
for you're the only one i know who is true making my life beautiful as blue..
you you you... lalalalal
we both must say i love you
and when we satyed together
gently caresing one another
super i felt the love so real forever
but i don't know what to do
why you suddenly flew and made me fell the bad fool untrue
Baby could not sleep
and the bottle of Vodkha here comes to rescue me
Mariah's song becomes the lullaby of your supposedly role
of whatever we had and i'm sad
please be back coz i don't want to have an attack
Superman could not bring what we both had
Superman could not bring what we both had
superman could not bring what we both had
Bridge:
Don't close the door
for we know that there is love we bothe are fighthing for
Baby baby come back to me
let's sway and dance the night away and make this day a moment to stay!
--------
Thanks Naddie for helping me out with some of the tunes... wee...
this song helped and is helping me to recover and get back and stand up all over agin!
thanks and the cafe is closing already!sorry for the wrong spellings!
mwah!

chantilly, 5:00 Pm
(with burger and two cups of coffee)
the stains of purity
were abandoned
trying to wander
trying to ask
tying to beg
why it is not yet over
fin?
i don't think so
the mask
the facade
the fake smiles
hiding inside
the cloth
that covers the wrath
the worms eating my nights
solitude and despair
bring me and come do the repair
and as these raindrops
from my vision roam the earth
i too submit to lowness
but still my pride wins over the sadness that haunts me day and night
please let this end
for i don't want to submit myself to death
stains proving the purity now...
dirty yet the whiteness prevails
hope
i believe so
sigh!
and tears made me ok!
---to you who changed all stories just to accommodate your self hurting and stupidity.

Oh baby
Baby, I stay in love with you
Dying inside 'cause I can't stand it
Make or break up
Can't take this madness
We don't even really know why
All I know is baby
I try and try so hard
To keep our love alive
If you don't know me at this point
Then I highly doubt you ever will
I really need you to give me
That unconditional love I used to feel
It's a mistake if we just erase it
From our hearts and minds and I know
[Chorus:]
We said let go
But I kept on hanging on
Inside I know it's over
You're really gone
It's killing me
'cause there ain't nothing
That I can do
Baby, I stay in love with you
And I keep on telling myself
That you'll come back around
And I try to front like "Oh well"
Each time you let me down
See I can't get over you now
No matter what I do
But baby, baby
I stay in love with you
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Baby, I stay in love with you
It cuts so deep
It hurts down to my soul
My friends tell me
I ain't the same no more
We still need each other
When we stumble and fall
How we gonna act
Like what we had
Ain't nothin' at all now
Hey, what I wanna do is
Ride shotgun next to you
With the top down like we used to
Hit the block
Proud in the SUV
We both know our heart is breaking
Can we learn from our mistakes
I can't last one moment alone
Now go I know
[Chorus x2]
I stay in love
Love
Oh, I stay in love.
---i was just hit by this... and i am crying in the cafe.. sheT!!!help me please...

4:47 AM
It was a long stretch of portals
well lit
well erected
it was a strange search
sacrifice---
was about to come
until you stood tall
amidst the portal
it changed
come
wrapped me with those extensions
my longings and despairs
until the smile of Luna
half-baked yet full
became the only sight of meeting faces
meeting ends
trapped with the darkness
viewed and glanced by the elusive jewels
slowly caressed and well coated by the sand
as i rubbed d entrance of his portals
indeed tall and erected
psssssst
we ran heading to that den
still coated with sand
not minding the audience
finally a splash came over me
exhausted yet fulfilled
Don't go
stay for i need d answer
of that puzzle
will cupid hit me?
hopefully yes
Portals enter and i submit myself to saunter
yet leading to my long deserved slumber
No
i need to have him...
oops no forever but still will i remember
the Luna
the sand
the jewels
and so i wish portal come enter...

One thing that made me shocked and even until now i am still in a limbo for the fact that i modeled and do my runway stint when i had the chance to work with a local yet international taste designer during the opening of the Buglasan festival... it was something new to me and jee i love it! hahaha
new things come my way and grabbing them is great. now im disturbed by the fact that i did not do any of my masteral requirement and another incomplete feather to my hat i guess... the hell i care... need to submit grades, just submitted my BIR form and hopefully tomorrow the grades or even partial of it!!!
the call to get wet under the rain is haunting me.. remeber the days when we held on in the rain... lalalalal... hahay.... regrets are there but wala na tay mahimu... hahahy!!
I THANKS nADI FOR ALWAYS BEING THERE.. to the extent that some people think we are lovers.. we laugh at it for we know deep with in us that we are just two crazy creatures enjoying the world of Friendship.. and with this chemistry some people try to get rid the so called thing me and andi have... try to destroy it for their own advantages... hahay!
thanks ning!!!

A perfect weekend...
It was a fulfilling Saturday and Sunday...Tiring yet fully satisfied... as what the seminarian said in his message... and i quote, "lovingly struggling". I too felt this with all the good things that happened to me last weekend (Aug.16 and 17) and even until now...and i know in the days to come..
Saturday- I spent the entire dawn with some new friends with a bottle of Gilbeys mixed with C2 ice tea drink and indeed, it was a night of realization that it is a small world after all ( the famous Disney Parade song when i was in Disney TOkyo last 2004).. we are all connected... and with this, i can say i was drunk. Around 6 in the morning i need to be at Quezon Park to start doing the Amazing Race stations for the leadership training for the SK Chairmen of Negors Oriental--- and i was drunk... hehehehe...
During the entire course of the race, i realized how blessed i am to have been given the chance and opportunity to impart something to these young shakers of the land. It was fulfilling and it was also an eye opener knowing that most or i mean all of these SK chairmen who are considered as the leaders of the grassroots do not deserve to be there in that position and have the word honorable before their given names. most of them can not even communicate and were just forced by parents and peers to run for the said position and they ended up lost in that quest for change. sad but true.. it was something that struck my being as an ambitious young man who still has this hope for our dear old Filipinas...
After this event, we gave some reward to ourselves, me with ate lea, jana and jay aldecoa.Submitted ourselves to the movie- a very special love. and it was a movie that brought me in to tears and hope. another 360 degrees turn of a hopeful romantic that i know will come my way in due time- boy or girl- it does not matter at all as long as i love that soul.
And i met the night with great anticipation to have that long overdue rest; i know i truly deserve.
Sunday- Morning, was the continuation of the leadership training and it was where we had our processing stage of the things we did last saturday. again a moment of greatness and a moment of happiness. having this sense of grattitude that i have some power to change the face of this world. i do not dream to be Oprah or Barrack Obama to start something great--- but i am Claudio Ramos, having this special and unique mission, and i guess i am starting to find and to fulfill it.
Next, believe it or not, i watched the movie a very special love again, with Naddie. hehehe you call it fanatic not to the stars or the celebrities, maybe it was also the reason but i was more particular with the magic of LOVE. this movie as i said, brings back the so- called love feeling that i thought will be elusive to my being...the hope is there and the search goes on..
then we rushed ourselves to hear the Gospel and the testimony of this graduating seminarian. it may be weird but it did pass by my mind-- and that is to join the seminary. whooaaah...we will see...
and last, the night became so elegant with the Ballet Manila performance with Prima Ballerina- Liza Macuja Elisalde.the grandeur of showcasing two masterpieces- Sonata and Pinocchio was astonishing and even until now the images of the under water scene of pinocchio and the bed scene of Sonata are still fresh and alive. The hope of being a stage performer will and is always in my heart. i may be silent today but i know there and it will come... my time when the world will smile at me as i kiss the stage of greatness--- with or with out those curtains and lights..
HOPE is what i call the support system of ambition...

August 09,2008
while listening to mariah carey's version of somewhere over the rainbow as a tribute performance to the greatest patti labelle, i can't stop myself and think of the word respect... do we have that? hmmm....
i grew up with the word respect and also loving the song respect popularized by no less than the soul diva herself- Aretha Franklin.I am just so thankful that my parents raised me well, and so i am guided by this principle of love and respect. respecting myself and the people around me. i maybe harsh sometimes but it is because of people around me that trigger me to do all these...
A call to move on is posted in my real concept of what i called my sanctuary. It is very hard.. very hard in a sense that people, i already consider my past are still there, not that i am bothered with their presence, for the hell i care about them...it is just few or some of them think that it is a lost in my part of not having them in my circle. hmmp! but again i will go back to what i said earlier--- RESPECT.
I captured and hid those shoes because i respected and still respecting the ideology of passion and interest specially to those neophyte dreamers. i submitted myself to total darkness, even for a fact and surely i know, it will be a daunting task to fight and survive in this dark world. i jumped into this deep waters even for a fact i know i am drowning. i started wrapping all those memories and strands of happiness and sadness, eventually putting them to my imaginary casket and just open it if there is a need to do one... All in the glory of RESPECT. I respect the so called FRIENDSHIP.
But with all these submissions and these earth like structure of being grounded, i am caught in the middle of other things which i consider more important. Why will i continue paying attention to the cries of these wolves. their echoing sounds roamed my mind--- but i believed and agreed as to what my friend said "just leave them, and do your thing". but one thing my friend does not know is that im over him/her/them. It is just not a Claudio characteristic of a total moving on.. i always have these trademarks of doing some things, both positive and negative,( hahaha most of the time negative and so beware.)But with these bunch of wolves i will again submit myself to a total moving on because i still have that RESPECT. and hopefully it will remain in my heart because, other people think that i have too much of this respect. i just don't want that i will loose this and eventually do my turn of what i term as a sweet revenge... hahaha(witch laugh)
But again, calm down calm down... all these are plain words..(hopefully) another contradiction. hahaha... well this is a summary of what i know and what i inculcated in my self for the past 23 years. RESPECt. i know that this blog is so late for my 23rd birthday last july 21, 2008. It was overwhelming and so memorable for three reasons.
1. i celebrated my birthday with friends and i mean those special friends and people close to my heart at Forest camp Valencia. my mom and my brother came over and it was just so fitting in a sense that i can feel that there is some geographical changes that i will experience in the next months (hopefully, i lift all these things to HIM). Suzabel- a longtime friend. Alfie- a brother to me, guz-my british friend, Naddie- my angel. and also it became so meaningful when the bongcasan family came and attended my bday.
2.It was around 3:20 in the afternoon at the college of Arts and Sciences Building Room 312, while i was giving a lecture about the areas of communication, a bunch of students and friends, entered the classroom with a cake and a wine.It brought me to tears of joy and happinness. and so we ate the cake, and yes it was so fulfilling and i really can't explain the things i felt during those time.
3. I have my boardmates whom i took for granted for the past years, but hey they are the craziest and the loudest but still with genuine heart people i know... Peers who are willing to help, when a shaky life scenario will come your way. We were all drunk and we walked heading to Kyosko, after eating we headed back to our boarding house, by creating loud noise, and i mean LOUD. And also i will never forget when we did some rearrangements of the parking posts in the street. It was a chaotic yet fun filled night.
These things made a mark in my life and i will continue to cherish with gladness and respect.. for i know these will have its another touch sooner or later but with a different color yest the same strand or the same texture..
And as i say good bye... Thanks for all those who are helping and making the world a better place to live in.. God bless...

Gently the whisper of the rushing wind touches my soul... sweet yet full of substance...this whisper signals me to submit myself to what i know i have and i will have in my existence--- my Pride... i am just wandering how far will this lead me... for many who will read this specially those people who know me --- and i mean who really are-- Claudio is the synonym of Pride---yes... I mean, common, pride-- and immediately you will incur the entirely negative note of what i believe is my weapon, the tool that keeps my head going and my heart to atleast stand up even though it still carries the bruises and the on-the-process healing.. Go healing, go on... mama will eventually bring some medicines.... and it will come...
The wind roared like the lion in the jungle as it contradicts a lost bee playing the flourescent bulb just above me, i looked up, and another sound got my attention that eventualy led me to notice a neophyte member of this house in his room...... and i am trying to think how much money my boardmates spent evrytime they play dota... as if i am the one giving them the money, but yes, i guess the fun is worth the single peso they pay...same with what i said is my weapon.. this is what i know and still believeing, caused me into trouble all the time.. but hey, i am not saying i am also the synonym of war.. that is too much.it is just for the past days i tried to weigh and to see things in all angles... i mean, i have gained much experience and much maturity from all that happened... but the memories still lingers.. i dont care of how many people i lost along the way... they taught me great lessons... lessons and gave me strong warnings and even phobias of giving my finger and this finger there is the extra incentive of giving my entire being... i just trust people in just a split second...
But a great friend once told me that in life we need to hold on... people come and go.. there are people who are just limited to your past and their role ends there.. and never they will be part of your journey for tomorrow.. that is i guess... same with me in their life stories.. i am trying to find ways and means.. but i turn around and see few of the best.. few of the well raped by the times of life... weathers shapes the mountains, experiences shape the human persona...
now, as i write this, i am just so happy of doing a teambuilding to SUCNA officers and was lucky enough to grace and to get a lot of new insights from Dr. Sinda- gee... she was fantastic... one great leader and a person...
anyways the teambuilding was stressful, but again the my heart is richer than what i ever imagined... had the chance to chat with a friend who is now in china...and the excitement of clinching myself to whatever scholarship and opportunities abroad... hopefully i will be able to do that soon... but as of now, i am determined to fix myself.. and hopefully at the end of the road i will be able to take on the right turn to my very complicated route... and my pride, again and again is the fuel that makes me going...
and i will submit myself to slumber... hoping for a great day tomorrow...
need to wash my clothes... got no labandera pa! hahahah

these were the words of departure i got from somebody special. Special person but never saw that importance and just looked on my struggles to the MT. Everest like expectations that that person set from the very start of the journey...
I just said yes... ok...
and that person waited for me to say no, and surprisingly i did not cry... why should i... i did not see the point of saying good bye.. i thought it went well, i thought everybody's happy, i thought everybody's contented... but i was completely wrong... i guess i Failed but still i am not a loser...
one thing i know, i was true and i was sure of what i felt and what i knew from the very start i texted, exchanged thoughts, information, pleasure, tears, oils, and sweat, of even sacrificing things just to see, and be a good partner... but i was not...
Bottom line--- i learned a lot....
im just so thankful i met you my siomai...you showed me the respect of what Love can do and can be.. you showed me the other and the same me when i fall in love, and you helped me and supported me from all my flaws that i did not get from my past, that still haunts my darkness and with that, all praises and thanks... still i did not entertain the feeling of bidding bye bye, to the extend of neglecting these circumstances but it comes, it attacked my conscience' and left unprepared... i know i will be able to smile again...
That is for sure... for life is like that, as i am in my quest of finding the real essence of who i really am, let me enjoy the beauty of sharing and loving the world.. as what i said to ate lea... which is very hard to inject into my self but i will try...and i quote, " do not worry of not having that one person that you love for many are blessed with your presence and many people are happy for they see your greatness..."
I will try to let those words run into my life as classes this June starts, let me thank God for the chance of having this nation building concept and for touching millions of lives...
and i will leave you with this poem...
candle
12:24 AM, May 31, 2008
only the streams of the candle
can witness my solitude
the darkness that hides the rain
masking my vast being
will they catch me
will they care
that i don not know
as the candle
drowns herself
i too,
succumb myself into
nightmare and despair
go on.......

Goodbye
written: April 04, 2008
Dumaguete Boulevard
From the very Beginning
I know it will be this way
and i am afraid to stay
But you showed me a different path
You hold and bring back the light
I know its hard but I will give it a try
Even know it means i will cry
Chorus:
You and I will fly
the moment i will say Good bye
Dont you worry for we need to burn and bury
All the memory shared
Even though we know we care
But we need to be apart
Let's mend our broken heart and
love will show the way
Now, i'm healed but the scar remains
and i'm mending the pain
I looked for the answers
Search here and everywhere
yet i am lost without you
But help me I'm feeling blue for this is all true
(repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
I love you but I don't know what to do
Whenever your in my eyes
all i do is disguise
'Coz you make me feel brand new
And i turn blue
But i want to say is I love you
and i hope you feel the same way too..
(repeat Chorus)
So nice to have all these experiences.. and i am one of those many who hates good bye but with the many tears and bye bye, i was able to find the meaning of Godd bye, for it is an opening of something new....
and hope you will all find the new things something higher and greater than before...
