My new home

I always get teary eyed when I hear this song by Jars of Clay. For me, this song is about not giving up on someone you love and that there is always hope for everyone. Haaay! "Tea And Sympathy" Fare thee well Trade in all our words for tea and sympathy Wonder why we tried, for things that could never be Play our hearts lament, like an unrehearsed symphony Not intend To leave this castle full of empty rooms Our love the captive in the tower never rescued And all the victory songsSeem to be playing out of tune [Chorus:] But it's not the way That it has to be Don't trade our love for tea and sympathy 'Cause it's not the way That it has to be You begin And all your words fall to the floor and break like china cups And the waitress grabs a broom and tries to sweep them up I reach for my tea and slowly drink in 'Cause it's not the way That it has to be Don't trade our love for tea and sympathy 'Cause it's not the wayThat it has to be Don't tr...

I'm so much in love with this Christian rock group Jars of Clay. This group was introduced to me by my best friend Honey when we were in 2nd year high school. Flood was the first song I heard and I know many people with problems can relate to this song. Enjoy the lyrics! "Flood" Rain, rain on my face It hasn't stopped raining for days My world is a floodSlowly I become one with the mud [Chorus:]But if I can't swim after forty days and my mind is crushed by the thrashing waves Lift me up so high that I cannot fall Lift me up Lift me up - when I'm falling Lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying Lift me up - I need you to hold me Lift me up - Keep me from drowning again Downpour on my soulSplashing in the ocean, I'm losing control Dark sky all aroundI can't feel my feet touching the ground [Chorus] Calm the storms that drench my eyes Dry the streams still flowing Cast down all the waves of sin And guilt that overthrow me [Chorus] Lift me up - when I...

At long last, I found Itallian's in Greenbelt. I wanted Tal to try their fish and salads since we both said goodbye to pork and oily food. I chose Italianni's because Tal has not eaten in this restaurant. Knowing Talent he would not choose any restaurants here in greenbelt just to have dinner. He's a little "kuripot" but since I was the one who decided on where to eat then so be it! It's a good thing he enjoyed his fish and salad but most of all he enjoyed the taste of bread dipped in olive oil and balsamic vinegar. PRICELESS!

Last month, Tal and I went to Makati for a change. We used to go to Trinoma or Sm North if we want to relax or have a new gastronomical experience. Makati has changed big time! It bacame more fashionable and alive especially at night. We enjoyed strolling along all the malls located in that area plus the weather when we got there was simply perfect. It's not just Makati that has changed but also the people. The people I've seen there are glamorous and very sophisticated. Before, when I was in elementary I used to frequent this fascinating place with my cousin Erika. The Makati I knew was very simple but busy, adult like and very professional. Now, it's like the fashion capital of this country. Well, that's Makati!
