Trip to Bukidnon
Sorry for the late post..
Anyway, the pictures below were taken during our fieldtrip on Socio 128: Human Ecology at Malaybalay, Bukidnon last March 5, 2006.
It was really an exhausting trip, say some of us were told that the assembly time is 3:00 a.m... and that we were able to arrive back at Iligan at 9:00 in the evening...
I enjoy the trip though.. and I can really say that for me was really full of farting moments... haha!
It was the first fieldtrip that I joined where we rode a van, because usually it's a bus or the coaster..
I also played a part in the trip of course! Ummm... aherm! I was the official First Aid attendant... hehehe! And my first time to attend to an unconscious person since one of my classmates fainted at the moment we arrived at our first stop which was the Kaamulan Grounds at Malaybalay City, Bukidnon...
Well, below are some of the pictures that were taken during the trip:

Booze
My hands trembled,
as I slowly took the glass...
Trembling...
Thinking...
Trembling...
Drinking...
Finally, I took a gulp...
Finally, I broke a promise..
Finally, I came back to somewhere I've long forgotten..
I took every gulp with thougths of you,
and wishing that you are still thinking of me...
I drank,
trying to forget this aching pain,
hoping that this liquor could fill the emptiness of my heart..
I drank until it sunk in,
making me feel care-free,
making me laugh so hard and never minding the onlookers passing me by..
I drank and laughed,
hoping the booze could fill me up so I'll end up in slumber..
I drank and I laughed..
I laughed and I drank..
Then I wept..
And I fell into a deep slumber..
Then I woke up..
And I am ALONE.

De-stress
I know it's a bit late for this post.. But I hope it can still help.. I got this from an issue of Health and Home way back my high school.. so, here it is:
STRESS REDUCERS
1. Surround yourself with supportive upbeat friends.
Studies show that people who have a wide social network are less prone to illness and stress than people who have fewer acquaintances.
2. Curb your sweet tooth.
Try not to consume too many foods high in sugar, such as pastries, sodas and candies, which upset the blood sugar balance and contribute to irritability and mood swings.
3. Head for the gym.
Exercise releases endorphins, mood-elevating chemicals in your brain; it also relaxes tight muscles and releases energy-ssapping tension.
4. Take a nap.
A short snooze that's no longer than 20 minutes can be refreshing without compromising the quality of your nighttime sleep.
5. Just say no.
If someone asks you a favor that you'd rather not do, decline and don't feel guilty about it. Phrase your rejection this way: "Unfortunately, I'm so busy right now, I wouldn't be able to do as good a job for you as I'd like."
6. Stretch.
If your stressed at work, sitting all day at a desk doesn't help. Loosen clenched muscles by stretching. Stand up, put your fists into your lower back and lean back from your hips, keeping your legs and back straight.
7. Let the sun shine in.
Since bright light envigorates the senses, opening the curtains upon waking will give you a mood boost to start the day.
8. Drink plenty of water.
Even the smallest degree of dehydration can leave you feeling fatigued or sluggish. Make sure to get the recommended eight glasses of water a day, and steer clear of salt, sugar and caffeine, which dry you out.
9. See things from a child's point of view.
Keep a reminder of your childhood--a stuffed animal, a comic book, or an old toy--nearby to help you put things into perspective when you're stressed out.
10. Get crafty.
A recent study found that sewing, compaired with other activities like painting and reading, was the most relaxing. It helped lower blood pressure rates and perspiration.
11. Enjoy a nice soak.
Your bath may be one place in your house where you're assumed of having some private time.

Queen of Deceit
The "Queen of deceit"... The fair entity who's staring right at me through the looking glass...
I don't know how she does it. But she really does deceive people around her. That's why I call her that.
I know she doesn't lie or even want to lie. She's even scared of lying! However, she deceives people. She even deceives me at times.
Maybe it's just the way God created her to be. (Okay... don't put God into this.)
She thinks it's funny to deceive people. How people get surprised when they get to know her age.. Others treat her like she's rich. But she's not. She just doesn't look that shabby, I guess. People think she's intimidating.. When in fact she's also timid.. They're afraid to get near her because they think she's mean. But actually, she really wanted to make lots of friends and is just scared to get near people because they might not like her and she'll just get hurt instead. Some people also treat her like she doesn't know anything at all. They underestimate her capabilities and refute her ideas because they're better than her and because she acts like a kid. And many say that she's problem-free and happy. But is she?
If only she could just leave things as they are... But I know she just can't do that anymore..
She's tired... She's tired living a pretentious life.. She's tired of people treating her like a kid. She's tired of being silent while watching others as they laugh with their friends. She's tired of smiling to show that she's happy, when all she wanted was for someone to hold her tight to put her cares away. If only someone would help keep her patient. Because she's tired pretending. Tired of waiting for someone to see her to who she really is. And hoping to treat her right.
She's just the ordinary type of girl that you know. But she could become that extra-ordinary friend if someone would just want her to. She's also not that good in everything (yeah... a mediocre, as they say). But she tries to do best. But I guess, it's always never enough.
Right! I said she thinks it's funny to deceive people. For people to see someone else rather than her. But that's the irony when all she wants is for people to see who she is..
If someone could only see through the girl I see in the looking glass... =C
