"weakness will never hinder you in achieving anything." this was a line i read from a book, i forgot the title though. fears are commonly our weaknesses. it's our weaknesses that cause insecurities, comparing yourself to someone. they say that bravery is when you let your fears out and challenge yourself.. but still, many people, including me, hide their vulnerability, the fragile-this-side-up-box in every one of us.
vulnerability is the weakness of the spirit. i, for instance, have weaknesses that people apparently do not see. this true identity i have is difficult to hide beneath those piercing eyes. "one look, one word",a motto of those judgemental creatures. i continue my mission in hiding my true self up until now in fear of those who will know what i secretly hide.
seeking the perfect way or person to confide these thoughts and feelings is completely confusing. once i thought i found the person to talk to with these burdens too heavy. but somehow she let me down. from that day on i realize i wasn't wrong about those eyes that stab you inside making you regret big decisions you made.
wearing that sacred mask seems to be the only way to hinder that vulnerability in me from the crowd. but still i wait patiently. i wait for the person i can freely pour this fragile feeling ut of me. i also wish that someday i can also experience that natural feeling: the feeling not hiding anything from somebody, the feeling of wholeness i envy others feel.
---> i know, i know, it's lame and too dramatic. but what can i do? i was desperate at that time. and besides, i got 85 so its forgivable, right?

It’s the first month of 2007 and so far these are the things I have learned and found out.
things I have found out:
- Luke Skywalker is not as handsome as I thought he would be. Well he is the lead character so he should be handsome, right? They should have put Harrison Ford in place to Luke Skywalker’s character. Hmmm… maybe not, because when that happens, what’s-his-name will be Princess Leah’s partner and that would ruin the story! Anyhow I don’t like him in that movie. Anyway what can I do? It’s just based from my opinion and those 3 movies which he appeared in were made a looong time ago.
- I feel that 2007 is not my year. Everything I do these past few days seem to be all wrong. Don’t know why but that’s how I feel. When I do something which I think is correct, somebody tells me it’s the other way around. I am now confused of how adults think. Well I am already a young adult but how can it be that this is be the time I can’t relate to them? I don’t understand it! But of course I still continue to be with God, the One who always understands me.
things I learned:
- Life is too short. Live life today like there's no more tomorrow, well of course with giving glory to God. Also, life is too short for preppy little fights. Just don't mind those people who are really jealous of you that won't admit they are. Think about it, when you mind them, who will lost, you or them? Of course you will, because they succeeded in getting your attention. It's simply Carpe Diem.
- People who stick by you today doesn't mean that they will always be there. Most of the times, people in our life come and go but one thing is for sure: the Lord will be our (my) provider and (my) protector and nothing can get that away from us.
- Laugh a hearty laugh. It will be these moments that you wish would last forever.
To conclude, 2007 is a new year, a new start and a new chapter of our life. Live this year and the succeeding years a time of praising and sharing God's good news to others! God bless!

True Colors
You with the sad eyes
Don't be discouraged
Though I realise
It's hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
And the darkness there inside you
Make you feel so small
But I see your true colors
Shinin' through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful,Like a rainbow.
Show me a smile then,
Don't be unhappy, can't remember
When I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
You can call me up
Because you know I'll be there
And I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors,
Your true colors,
Are beautiful,
Like a rainbow
A beautiful song for our world today. Dove has recently showed the whole Philippines their new commercial where this song is being played throughout while some girls are really conscious about themselves. This is a really nice commercial since girls, or even boys if i may say so, are admiring stick-thin models which i am really against by the way. They do what they see even if it's not what their body wants.
Anorexia bloomed because of this fast-spreading-contagious perception, a sickness in mind that tells you to be thin. Even those stick-thin models you see in magazines admit they don't really look that way in real life. Those thin figures we see are the effects of technology. Photographers edit those looks with computers for people to say their models are beautiful. But beautiful for them has a wrong perception. Because in order to look good, you have to feel good. Don't contradict what your body tells you to do. I'm not saying that you have to be fat. What i'm saying is that there are too many people who are suffering from anorexia, especially celebrities, because of this wrong perception.
People are beautiful no matter what size they are. It's what inside that matters. Another thing is that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. And besides, in the end, it's not what others' opinions that matters, it's what God will say that will only matter.

my 1st entry!!! soooo excited!! neology of a lass...
neology... i don't know why i choose this word. neology means a newly invented word or phrase. it came to my mind that as i grow older, i encounter so much things in life, and with this comes more responsibilities. in our time today, it's really hard to communicate with those whom are much older than us (well in my case, its the parents and aunts). and simply because of neology and time.
lass...it was originally petticoat but i figured lass would be much better. lass is a girl right? anyway, i thought it would sound unique. "neology of a lass" don't you agree?
neology of a lass... it is simply about my thoughts, experiences and life. i am hoping for more blog entries to post despite of my busy schedule, and besides, it is a new year and i just have to make a blog that is more mature. :D
