Discerning Apothegms

Entered the hallowed halls
Altar of knowledge overflowing
Inside the troubled soul
Self-doubts are setting in

A silent cry in the night
An open Bible at the side
A whisper deep and assuring:
The law will not hinder the promise

A smile, but gladness could not be found
Falling, stumbling to the ground
A whisper, commanding:
Respect my Day, Joy will abound

The end is coming near
Puzzle pieces scattered still
Heart's a havoc, dreading
Make or break, the predator's kill

A whisper, saying:
You will judge the nations;
These trivial cases mere inaction
You are under my protection

Suffered a terrible blow
Teary-eyed, a broken core
Wanting to run and redo
Opted to brave and undo

For a whisper was heard
Saying:

Many a times I have saved you
In circumstances more dire than this
Never doubt in the darkness
What I have revealed in light.

We Were Merely Freshman...lawstudent version

When I was young I knew everything
She a punk who rarely ever took advice
Now I'm guilt stricken,
Sobbing with my head on the floor
Stack bluebooks with 5's and a book full of highlights

I can't be held responsible
They teach at a slow pace
I won't be held responsible
Grades were late in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and
We'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe
We'd ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen

My best friend took a week's
Vacation to forget D***
His girl took a weeks's worth of
Valium and slept
And now he's guilt stricken sobbing with his
Head on the floor
Thinks about Crim now and how he never really
Wept he says

I can't be held responsible
Teachers at a slow pace
I won't be held responsible
Grades were late in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and
We'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe
We'd ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen

hey yeah
hey yeah
hey yeah

We've tried to wash our hands of all this
We never talk of our flunks and heaps of slips
And how we're guilt stricken sobbing with our
Heads on the floor
We fell through the ice when we tried not to
Slip, we'd say

I can't be held responsible
They teach at a slow pace
And I won't be held responsible
Grades were late in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and
We'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe
We'd ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and
We'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe
We'd ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen
We were merely freshmen

Hehe. Yeah. Red fonts are the edited lines... T_T Just a minor tweaks here and there and viola!! Another song for law students...

Note: My other song is "Tongue Tied" by Faber Drive... maybe i'll post it here too... :D

isang araw, sa buhay ni faye-chan...

Haay...ano ba yan. Nakakalungkot naman...may klase pa man din ako bukas ng umaga. Nakakatamad na tuloy mag-aral. Alas-dos na ng madaling araw at eto ako ngayon, nagbla-blog. Hindi din naman ako makakatulog e. Haay buhay talaga...

Sige na, sige na. Sarili ko rin naman talaga ang dapat kong sisihin e. Nakakaasar lang talaga dahil kailangan pa ng mga ganitong pagkakataon para lang magpursigi ako. Tsk..tsk... Hambalos kung hambalos lang e.

In fairness, masakit pala. Masakit talaga kapag natatamaan ang ego. To think na hindi naman ako egoistic na tao. Sheesh. Sa kabilang banda, ayos na din lang. May mga taong mas masaklap ang kalagayan kaya hindi ako dapat magdrama. Mataas ako masyado magmarka, alam ko, pero madali rin lang ako makatanggap ng hindi kanais-nais na pangyayari...kaya okay lang. Makakangiti pa rin ako bukas...habang nagrerecite...hehe... (ayoko ngang magrecite! Hindi pa ako tapos magbasa e!)

Bakit naman kasi napaka-importante sa buhay ng isang tao ang grades e. (Oo, litanya to tungkol sa grades, ngayon mo lang ba napasin?? O_O) HIndi naman sinusukat ng grades ang pagkatao, ung kaalaman lang ng taong iyon sa isang paksa. Napakaliit ng kalahagahan nun kung ikukumpara mo sa aspeto ng isang indibidwal bilang tao. Bakit sobrang importansya ang binibigay dito?? Hmph! Sige na, sige na, bitter lang ako. Pero kahit na... self-proclaimed GC ako so may karapatan akong magbitter ng konti. Hehe...

Masasabi ko lang, hindi pa tapos ang laban. May in-adopt akong statement nang pumasok ako sa lawskul na ito: it takes an entire semestre to fail. That's enough time to prevent it. Hehe... uulitin ko...hindi pa tapos ang laban!

O siya, may naghihintay pa sa akin na labin-anim na kaso na kailangang basahin at i-digest. 9 nang umaga ang klase ko...ala-una y medya na ngayon. Kumusta naman yan??? O_O


**C pipol, tandaan...lumayo sa mga matataas na lugar, lubid, at matatalas na bagay. Iwasang mag-isa habang nakikinig ng mga nakakalungkot na musika. Kapag sa mga pagkakataong na pawang may bumubulong sa inyong saktan ang ating mga guro...sige lang...go lang... hehe...joke. Kaya natin 'to!

Cross Country Voyage

I'm tired tired tired and tired to the nth level. Can barely lift my finger because of it... *fainted*

AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES...

Where was I? Oh yeah. Just got back from the beautiful, mountainous province of Bataan since tomorrow marks the end of our short-lived break. Me wishing it was a wee bit longer. The time was not enough to regain the sanity I lost during the harrowing 1st sem. Niwayz, as I said, just got from Bataan. Edsie, my lovable roommate (soon to be former roommate) and all time recipient of the "Best Friend of the Year" Award, has to go to Cavite to fix some stuff regarding banks and money (note: really, really important stuff ). Due to the innate kindness and generosity that wells from my very being, i volunteered to accompany her. So there, I dragged my already exhausted body to Cavite. T'was not bad since we spend the whole time laughing and kidding around, to the detriment of other passengers and passers-by. After the thing with the bank and the money problem solved, Edsie-chan decided to shop at Trinoma. Today is the last of the 3-days sale and she is determined not to miss it. If it means she has to use the "Buado powers"... *ehem ehem... So we shopped until we drop--in the literal sense.

So now, I am sprawled in my bed, and my body is not cooperating anymore. Haaay...
Sleep sleep sleep... Zzzzz Z_Z
