when it rains
The soft grey sky
Drifts to the ground
Brown rivulets
Trickle away
Trickle away
Washing sadness down
Weather vanes
Weep and turn
Weep and turn
Forgetting in the damp and grey
That by and by
The sun will shine
Sun will shine
By and by
The sun will shine.

Breakaway
Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down
I just stared out my window
Dreaming of what could be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray (I would pray)
Trying not to reach out
But when I'd try to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I pray (I would pray)
I could breakaway
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky
I'll make a wish
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I loved
I'll take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Wanna feel the warm breeze
Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get onboard a fast train
Travel on a jet plane, far away (I will)
And breakaway

NOTHING CRUSHES USthe anali and jeni adventurewe got free movie passes from caloi around lunchtime.. and on a whim anali and i decided we'd go to sm right then and there to see the movie.. music and lyrics.. so we got up and went.. we got our tickets but we walked into the wrong movie.. we were about to go to the right theater but the movie has already started.. we just chose to stay.. dismissing it as one of those "everything happens for a reason" moments.. as it was.. the movie we walked into was the bridge to terabithia.. forgive me if i spelled that wrong.. i'm not entirely sure.. anyways.. i loved the movie.. i loved the character of lesli.. she's like my version of stargirl.. i cried.. i mean i really cried.. she said things like you're not your parents.. you are who you are.. and stuff like that..
[while anali and i were riding the jeep.. we talked about a lot of stuff.. we always talk.. sometimes about boys even.. today we talked about what type of guys we like.. she says she likes smart guys.. well, who doesn't?.. as for me.. i like guys who i think are sincerely interested.. who stops and thinks about trivial things.. basta.. so enough about boys.. we also talked about feminism.. i like anali's views.. she's no feminist.. she's an individualist.. i couldn't agree with her more.. and the movie echoed our thoughts.. i learned a new thing from her.. like.. a spinster in the phils aren't supposed to be called matandang dalaga but babaeng malaya.. and so we talked about alot of things.. the movie was quite fitting.. it really did justice to our current feelings and thoughts.. it was perfect..]
we went back to archi.. but we were so sleepy by then.. now, i'm at a loss for words.. but it really was a great day..
anali said not to rant on my blog.. i am trying.. but i do babble.. a lot.. so it's kinda the same thing.. never mind.. i'll be having some dinner now.. toodles..
i'm obsessing over this new show.. "date my mom"**today the guy's name was joe..
he didn't choose the perfect girl
he didn't choose the cheerleader/professional dancer
he chose the down to earth.. laid back girl..
he says he's a gentleman.. and he'd like someone who appreciates that about him..
what girl wouldn't..
i'd love to date a gentleman.. wink wink..
