another pissed ai update

im so pissed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the moment that ive been dreading since the start of the competition finals has come..

constantine maroulis,the smoldering astonishing idol is out!

it was his first time to be in the bottom three and he was sent packing. and to keep who?
scott savol? what the hell?! constantine performed way better than him. it just wasn't constantine's time to go..

i only got one explanation for this: another stupid, dumb, moronic choice!

im just glad bo bice is still in the competition. go bo!

bye constantine! i'll definitely miss him. i pray he still makes it into the business and make honest music.. and show all of america how stupid and moronic their choice was when they cut him off.. he can do that for sure..

im a mermaid!

You are a Mermaid, who sits on a rock in the sea, looking and watching all humanity with curiosity in your eyes. You have a two-sided personality! On one hand, you revel in your freedom and often prefer to live in your own private dreams.

On the other hand, humanity intrigues you and you love watching on. You are actually very kind at heart, hating to see people hurt and despise injustice! You probably have one or two special friends, who mean the world to you!

Also; you are probably quite political, wanting to see justice done in the world.

You are quite the dreamer, needing freedom and personal space to dream your little dreams. You love to escape into a book or some good music and just drift away.

Some of your good points are that you are sensitive, compassionate and a freethinker. Your bad points are that you may come across as cool and aloof to others and probably have a tendency to depression!

You are the ultimate dreamer with a kind, but troubled heart!

on philosophy of religion

* my groupmates and i worked on this for philo 25, philosophy of religion.

why study philosophy of religion?

We admit that our knowledge as well as our understanding of the religion which we belong is not very deep. We cannot even articulate well the purpose of certain religious rituals which we perform so often. We attend Masses and services but the lack of full awareness about our faith still remains. We fear that should someone question our religious beliefs, we will not be able to defend it or explain it well due to our lack of understanding.

It is in this situation that we find ourselves in that studying Philosophy of Religion is very helpful and significant. Philosophy of Religion, as defined, is the careful analysis and critical evaluation of the philosophical implications of religion. We believe that studying Philosophy of Religion will help us acquire a deeper understanding of our faith. By learning to carefully examine our own religious beliefs and that of others, we will be able to make sound decisions regarding our religion. We also believe that the deeper understanding that we will acquire by studying Philosophy of Religion will help strengthen our faith. It will also make the way we worship and the way we perform the different religious rituals more meaningful. By studying Philosophy of religion, we will not only understand the purpose and the implications of the rituals and the way we worship but also do these things with greater sincerity.

In sum, we study Philosophy of Religion not because we happen to be studying in a Jesuit university and it is a requirement in our courses, but most importantly, to become better believers of our faith. By gaining greater awareness about our religion and that of others, we hope to become truly faithful.

summer blues..

contrary to what i thought and hoped and so excited about the day i created this blog, i won't be blogging much this summer. my class sched is really working against me. wait, that's not it. i think my teachers are evil! not really.. they're just awfully and devastatingly demanding. whatever.. my only consolation for all my classes is the fact that i've met a lot of interesting people..and some cool guys as well.. they could help ease the my academic burden this summer.. they're in it too.. well, the summer heatwave is not doing any miracles with my teachers, but at least my classmates are quite a fun bunch.. that should suffice.. for now..

why earthlight?

this is the poem that inspired the name of this blog.. i thought, if there are things such as sunlight and moonlight, there may be a thing called earthlight.. just me and my zany mind.. anyway, i like this poem a lot..

earthlight

"Let's

take a stroll

down

by the crater,"

said

the moon man

to the moon maiden.

"There's a beautiful

full earth

out tonight."

-paul engle

qoute me..

Your wise quote is: "Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising everytime we fall" by Confucius.

Yes indeed, you see true strenght can only be seen when a person has "fallen". Only then one can tell how they will handle it. Just
don't make others fall so you can know who they really are. You on the other hand may be a very quick recoverer and don't let people bring you
down. You are your own, and you're find with that. Emotional issues is something you handle rather nicely.

a difficult summer

the summer sunshine is all around and yet where do i find myself? in school! it's only the third day of the summer classes and my teachers have begun to drive me nuts.. this is going to be one hell of a summer for me, i suppose..

here are my subjects for the summer:

- Christian Morality
- Philosophy of Religion
- The Philippine Constitution

pretty heavy stuff, don't you think? just thinking of my subjects, i can't help myself from saying out loud: what in the world did i just get myself into?!

and it doesn't help a bit that my teachers are famous for either being class terrors or not very generous grade givers.. it doesnt help at all..

there's gotta be more..

+ more to life +
+ stacie orrico +

I've got it all, but I feel so deprived

I go up, I come down and I'm emptier inside

Tell me what is this thing that I feel like I'm missing

And why can't I let go

There's gotta be more to life...

Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me

Cause the more that I'm...

Tripping out thinking there must be more to life

Well it's life, but I'm sure... there's gotta be more

Than wanting more

I've got the time and I'm wasting it slowly

Here in this moment I'm half way out the door

Onto the next thing, I'm searching for something that's missing

There's gotta be more to life...

Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me

Cause the more that I'm...

Tripping out thinking there must be more to life

Well it's life, but I'm sure... there's gotta be more

than wanting more

Than waiting on something other than this

Why am I feelin' like there's something I missed....

.

* in this world where a lot of people still believe that success is equal to amassing great wealth and hoarding material possessions, we find that such success does not in any way guarantee happiness. even when we own everything that we could ever want, we still feel that something remains missing. and unless we find that, we will not be complete. we live life jumping from one source of happiness to another and find the satisfaction fleeting.. we thirst for something more stable and permanent. then we stop and ponder that there's gotta be more to life than this...

rockers rule american idol?!

anyone who cares about american idol definitely has noticed this: rockes are ruling the pop music dominated competition! rockers constantine maroulis (love him!) and bo bice are top favorites of the american audience who makes the tough decision of chosing who stays and who goes in the contest. another thing, the audience do seem to be agreeing with the ever so "kind" simon cowell as the competition continues to heat up! as for me, i think the audience has made the right choice of making the rockers rule. why? well, constantine and bo's showmanship is just good. damn good! not to mention thier unpredictable choice of songs: risky but never boring. talk about heating up the stage! even if the time comes that they will be eliminated, they will never be easily forgotten! i won't! i just love 'em!

needless to say, RoCkeRs RULE!!!!!!!!!

the simplest words one can say

+ love song for a saviour + + jars of clay + In open fields of wild flowers She breathes the air flies away She thanks her Jesus for the daisies and the roses In no simple language Someday she'll understand the meaning of it all He's more than the laughter Or the stars in the heavens As close as a heartbeat Or a song on her lips Someday she'll trust him And learn how to see him Someday he'll call her And she will come running Fall in his arms, the tears will fall down And she'll pray I want to fall in love with you Sitting silent wearing sunday best The sermon echoes through the walls A great salvation through it Goes to the people who stare into nowhere Can't feel the chains on their souls He's more than the laughter Or the stars in the heavens As close as a heartbeat Or a song on her lips Someday we'll trust him And learn how to see him Someday he'll call us And we will come running Fall in his arms The tears will fall down and we'll pray I want to fall in love with you Seems to easy to call you savior Not close enough to call you a god So as I sit and think of Words I can mention to show my devotion I want to fall in love with you

i am a spirit

You are the Spirit of Love. You think around romance and are extremely compassionate.
Whenever you want something you can get it due to your fiery passion. You can make friends
quite easily, because peopole are attracted to your obvious good nature. You will have no
trouble in finding a life partner and will be very happy.

my sign of affection

hand holding - you like to be in constant physical
contact with your special someone but you don't
want to take things too quickly.

my element

Your element is Water: Understanding, intelligent, quiet and calm. You know who you are and no one can change that. Usually quiet but only because your listening, don't let anyone think you haven't got an opinion! Your not quiet because your shy or sad, your usually quiet because your thinking. Your answers are well planned and helpful so people generally seek your advice. Your the perfect balance between solitary and outgoing. But sometimes you need a little time to yourself to sort out your emotions and figure things out. You understand the phrase 'sticks and stone' and rarely let things get to you, whats that important for you to have to get so upset over? You know what you want out of life but are simply taking your time and enjoying things. To you your life is fine as it is, you can always change things later if your not happy.

words i live by

desiderata

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love, for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.
