Me at Minami's house

2007-02-04T12:25:00.000-05:00

Here's me at Minami's house. I think it is the same night when we went to Imperial Bar. Anton stupidly inserted Kana's small ring in one of my fingers and we almost had to go to the hospital coz I couldn't take it off! We went up to the kitchen of the bar and the cook lubed it with olive oil. After a lot of tries and shouts, we finally got the ring off my finger but my finger was swollen for a couple of hours after that!

Here are some pics from my friend Kanako's camera... I wanna start captioning some of the pics. These set right here was when Abraham was in town. He got refused to go inside the Guvernment coz he was sooo drunk and can't stand straight! hahaha... Oh well.. Still good times :)

We were at a club called Fly that night with Minami and Kanako so we haven't had any sleep when this pic was taken. Anton, as always, was high and drunk, having had beer, vodka, tequilla and weed. :)

Love Sonnet XVII

2005-12-19T22:37:00.000-05:00

I am not sure if i have posted this sonnet from Pablo Neruda...

I do not love you as if you were the salt-rose, topazor arrow of carnations that propagate fire:

I love you as certain dark things are loved,secretly, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that doesn't bloom and carrieshidden within itself the light of those flowers,and thanks to your love, darkly in my bodylives the dense fragrance that rises from the earth.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where,I love you simply, without problems or pride:

I love you in this way because I don't know any other way of lovingbut this, in which there is no I or you,so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand,so intimate that when I fall asleep it is your eyes that close.

Some stupid story

2005-07-19T15:36:00.000-06:00

Two priests decided to go to Hawaii on vacation.
They were determined to make this a real vacation
by not wearing anything that would identify them
as clergy. As soon as the plane had landed, they
headed for a store and bought some really
outrageous shorts, shirts, sandals, sunglasses,
etc.

The next morning they went to the beach, dressed
in their "tourist" garb.

They were sitting on beach chairs, enjoying a
drink, the sunshine and the scenery when a drop-
dead gorgeous topless blonde in a thong bikini
came walking straight towards them. They couldn't
help but stare.

As the blonde passed them, she smiled and
said, "Good morning, Father, good morning,
Father," nodding and addressing each of them
individually, then passed on by.

They were both stunned. How in the world did she
know they were priests?

So the next day, they went back to the store and
bought even more outrageous outfits. Once again,
the two priests settled on the beach in their chairs
to enjoy the sunshine. After a while, the same
gorgeous topless blonde, wearing a string, taking
her sweet time, came walking towards them.

Again, she nodded at each of them, said, "Good
morning, Father," and started to walk away.

One of the priests couldn't stand it any longer and
said, "Just a minute, young lady."

"Yes?" she asked.

"We are priests, and proud of it, but I have to
know, how in the world did you know we are
priests dressed as we are?"

"Father, it's me, Sister Angela."

KEEP YOUR FORK

2005-07-17T13:32:00.000-06:00

There was a young woman who had been diagnosed with a terminal illness and had been given three months to live.

So as she was getting her things "in order," she contacted her Pastor and had him come to her house to discuss certain aspects of her final wishes.

She told him which songs she wanted sung at the service, what scriptures she would like read, and what outfit she wanted to be buried in. Everything was in order and the Pastor was preparing to leave when the young woman suddenly remembered something very important to her.

"There's one more thing," she said excitedly.

"What's that?" came the Pastor's reply.

"This is very important," the young woman continued. "I want to be buried with a fork in my right hand."

The Pastor stood looking at the young woman, not knowing quite what to say.

“That surprises you, doesn't it?" the young woman asked.

"Well, to be honest, I'm puzzled by the request," said the Pastor.

The young woman explained. "My grandmother once told me this story, and from there on out, I have always done so. I have, also, always tried to pass along its message to those I love and those who are in need of encouragement.

“In all my years of attending socials and dinners, I always remember that when the dishes of the main course were being cleared, someone would inevitably lean over and say, 'Keep your fork.' It was my favorite part because I knew that something better was coming...like velvety chocolate cake or deep-dish apple pie. Something wonderful, and with substance!'

“So, I just want people to see me there in that casket with a fork in my hand and I want them to wonder ‘What's with the fork?’ Then I want you to tell them: ‘Keep your fork ... the best is yet to come.’"

The Pastor's eyes welled up with tears of joy as he hugged the young woman good-bye. He knew this would be one of the last times he would see her before her death. But he also knew that the young woman had a better grasp of heaven than he did.
She had a better grasp of what heaven would be like than many people twice her age, with twice as much experience and knowledge. She KNEW that something better was coming.

At the funeral people were walking by the young woman's casket and they saw the cloak she was wearing and the fork placed in her right hand. Over and over, the Pastor heard the question ‘What's with the fork?’ And over and over he smiled.

During his message, the Pastor told the people of the conversation he had with the young woman shortly before she died. He also told them about the fork and about what it symbolized to her. The pastor told the people how he could not stop thinking about the fork and told them that they probably would not be able to stop thinking about it either.

He was right. So the next time you reach down for your fork, let it remind you ever so gently, that the best is yet to come.

Friends are a very rare jewel, indeed. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed. They lend an ear, they share a word of praise, and they always want to open their hearts to us. Show your friends how much you care. Remember to always be there for them, even when you need them more. For you never know when it may be their time to "Keep your fork."

Cherish the time you have, and the memories you share ... being friends with someone is not an opportunity but a sweet responsibility.

Send this to everyone you consider a FRIEND even if it means sending back to the person who sent it to you.

And keep your fork.

ANyways, Bernadette, I know that you are reading this so, I just want you to know that I miss you soooooooo much.
